Batch, mix and deliver wetmixture shotcrete per ASTM C94 or C685.
D. Hot Weather Shotcreting – Unless otherwise specified, do not place shotcrete when shotcrete temperature is above 95°F, unless prequalification testing shows that the required quality of materials can be achieved at high temperatures. The temperature of reinforcement and receiving surfaces shall be below 90°F prior to shotcrete placement.
E. Cold Weather Shotcreting – Unless otherwise specified, shooting may proceed when ambient temperature is 40°F and rising. Stop shooting when ambient temperature is 40°F and falling, unless measures are taken to protect the shotcrete. Shotcrete material temperature, when shot, shall not be less than 50°F. Do not place against frozen surfaces.
3.04 SHOTCRETE PLACING, FINISHING, AND CURING
A. Operations: Utilize a standard type of air compressor, capable of providing a minimum of 250 cubic feet of air per minute per nozzle.
B. Placing: Except when shooting reinforcing, hold the nozzle perpendicular to and 2-1/2 to 3 feet from surface. At reinforcing bars, hold the nozzle so as to direct shotcrete behind the bars, and shoot each side of each bars separately. A nozzleman’s helper equipped with an air jet shall precede the nozzle and blow out rebound or sand lodged behind bars, on forms, or placed shotcrete. Placing shotcrete horizontal members from the top is not allowed unless approved methods are employed to eliminate all rebound. Material shall emerge from the nozzle in a uniform flow. If flow becomes intermittent for any reason, direct the nozzle away from the surface until the flow is again steady and constant. Do not reuse rebound or loose sand for any purpose.
C. Puddled Shotcrete: Use of “puddled shotcrete” in which the air pressure is reduced and the water content is increased to facilitate placing in difficult locations is not allowed. Do not place shotcrete where nozzle stream cannot impinge directly on the involved surface. Where difficult shooting For Council Approval

conditions occur, obtain proper results by maintaining correct air pressure and water ratio and reduce supply of material.
D. Construction Joints: Form joints with sloping beveled edges. Clean and dampen the hardened joint surfaces before placing additional shotcrete. Square edged construction joints are not allowed.
The film of laitance which forms on the surface of the shotcrete shall be removed within approximately two hours after application by brushing with a stiff broom. If this film is not removed within two hours, it shall be removed by thorough wire brushing or sand blasting. Construction joints over eight hours old shall be thoroughly cleaned with air and water prior to receiving shotcrete.
E. Finishing: Rod exposed surfaces to true planes and lines on reaching the thickness and plane established by forms and ground wires. Tamp and wood float surfaces level and provide a rough raked finish. Carefully coordinate finish requirements with other trades (ceramic tile, pool plaster) to insure shotcrete finish is appropriate substrate for final finish material.
F. Curing: Keep shotcrete continuously damp for not less than seven (7) days after placing. Use sealed curing sheeting or other approved curing method where water curing is not feasible. Do not use curing compound of any kind.
3.05 DEFECTIVE WORK
A. Cut out, remove and replace, or repair to the satisfaction of the Owner’s Representative, shotcrete not meeting minimum strength, not true, plumb or level, not to required elevations, containing cracks detrimental to performance or appearance, containing shavings, debris or with honeycombs or voids.
B. Promptly perform Work required to repair, patch, replace, render properly cleaned surfaces (by sandblasting if necessary) or otherwise make good any defective shotcrete at Contractor's expense, including all expense of additional inspection, tests, or supervision made necessary as a result of defective shotcrete.
3.06 CLEAN-UP
A. Upon completion of the Work of this Section, immediately remove all spray ground shotcrete materials, debris and rubbish occasioned by this work to the approval of the Owner's Representative.

PART 3 - EXECUTION
3.1 EXAMINATION
A. Examine all construction substrates and conditions under which waterproofing materials are to be installed. Do not proceed with the waterproofing application until unsatisfactory conditions are corrected.
3.2 PREPARATION
A. Protect adjacent surfaces not designated to receive waterproofing.
B. Substrate preparation:
1. Remove oil, grease, dirt, loose particles, remains of form oils, water repellents, rust or other coatings by high-pressure water blasting (>3000 psi), wet or dry sand blasting, or other mechanical means to produce surfaces suitable for application of waterproofing.
2. Follow manufacturer's instructions to clean and prepare surfaces and seal cracks and joints.
3. Voids in concrete substrates: 1/4-inch (6 mm) diameter and larger, pre-treat with a cementitious mortar. Less than 1/4-inch (6 mm) diameter can be filled with a scratch coat of two-component waterproofing material.
C. Rinse surfaces to be waterproofed (excluding drywall or similar) with clean water to saturated surface dry (SSD) condition, with no standing water on horizontal surfaces.
3.3 INSTALLATION
A. Mix two-component waterproofing material in proportions recommended by manufacturer.
B. Taping:
1. Apply two-component waterproofing material by brush in a six to seven inch (15 – 18 cm) wide strip coat centered over all joints, cracks, penetrations and changes of plane to be taped.
2. While this coat is still wet, unroll joint sealing tape into the coating and apply a coat of twocomponent waterproofing material over the tape, smoothing out wrinkles and fish mouths.
C. Positive Side Waterproofing:
1. Apply two-component waterproofing material in quantities as per manufacturer's specifications and recommendations:
2. Apply at 60 mils or 1/16” (1.5 mm) total thickness for water levels up to 2-feet (0.60 m).
3. Apply at 90 mils (2.4 mm) total thickness for water depth greater than 2-feet (>0.60 m).
D. Application considerations:
1. Apply, using stainless steel trowel, tampico brush, short nap roller, or appropriate compressedair spray equipment.
2. If needed, such as in zones posed to movement or cracking, plaza decks, the waterproofing material can be additionally reinforced with a reinforcing mesh (supplied by waterproofing manufacturer), embedded between two waterproofing layers.
3. Apply only when surface and ambient temperatures are 40°F (5°C) and rising. At high temperatures i.e., 86°F (30°C) and above) protect application from direct sun and wind to prevent premature surface drying and shrinkage cracks. Apply material in two coats minimum.
4. Application thickness should not exceed 1/8-inch (120 mils (3 mm)).
5. Do not bridge cracks greater than 1/16-inch (1.5 mm).
6. Bridge dynamic cracks or joints with elastomeric joint sealing tape, as supplied by waterproofing manufacturer.
7. Do not overcoat waterproofing material with solvent-based materials.
