23、e drawings. At Contractors option, use either the dry or wet mix process. Discharge entire batch before recharging. Clean mixer at least once every 8-hour shift or portion thereof. Reject material mixed and standing for 45 minutes; remixing or tempering not permitted. 2. Dry Mix Process: Conform to

26、y and water injection. 2. Air Compressor and Hoses: Standard type, of capacity to provide without interruption, pressures and volume of air necessary for longest hose delivery; conform to ACI 506R, Table 3.1. Make allowances for air consumed by separate blow pipe in blowing away rebound, cleaning re

27、inforcing and incidental uses. 3.

29、emixed materials accurately, uniformly and continuously through the hose, all in accordance with ACI 506R, Paragraphs 3.3 and 3.7. C. Air Supply: ACI 506R, Paragraph 3.4.2. 3.4 ALIGNMENT CONTROL A. General: To establish thickness and surface planes or shotcrete build-up provide ground wires, taut, s

30、ecure, true to line and plane, conforming to ACI 506R, Paragraph 5.6. B. Reinforcing Positioning: Check that reinforcing is positioned and sized all in accordance with ACI 506R, Paragraph 5.4. 3.5 EXHAUST SYSTEM A. Construct a sealed air barrier around immediate area of work as approved by Resident

31、Engineer. Construct a sealed air barrier prior to any application within confines of the Medical Center. B. Continuously exhaust work area to outside creating a negative pressure within area. Do not locate air exhaust near any Medical Center air intakes. 3.6 SHOOTING A. General: ACI 506R, Paragraph

32、8.5.7. Shoot and fill corners first, with continuous uniform material flow from nozzle held approximately 600 mm to 1500 mm (2 to 5 feet) from the work, at angle normal to the surface. 1. Shoot around reinforcing with nozzle close to encase reinforcement as illustrated in ACI 506R, Figure 8.4, left

33、column. Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-07-11 03 37 13 - 6 2. If flow is not uniform and slugs, sand spots or wet sloughs result, turn nozzle away until faulty work is cut out and repaired. 3. Do no shotcrete work if temperature is be

34、low 40 C (40 0 F) without providing continuous heat and adequate protection from freezing. B. Preparation of Surfaces to Receive Shotcrete: ACI 506R, Paragraph 5.2, as applicable to the work, as approved. C. Rebound: ACI 506R, Paragraph 8.5.10.

35、nd for subsequent batching. D. Suspend application if: 1. High wind prevents nozzlemen from proper application of material. 2. Weather approaches freezing and shotcrete cannot be protected. 3. Rain, other than a very light sprinkle, occurs which would wash cement out of freshly placed material. E. T

36、ime Between Coats: 1. In sloping, vertical or overhanging work, allow interval of time sufficient for initial, but not final, set to develop. 2. At development of initial set, lightly broom surface to remove any laitance to provide better bond with succeeding applications. F. Construction Joints: 1.

37、 ACI 506R, Paragraph 5.7, tapering over a width of 300 mm (1 foot) to a 25 mm (1 inch) edge from board laid flat. 2. Before proceeding with additional shotcrete work, thoroughly clean joint and adjacent shotcrete, then wet and scour surfaces with air jet. G. Warm Weather Application: Prevent dryout

38、resulting in cracking and separation by keeping surfaces continuously moist and/or covered with continuously moistened burlap for 7 days after shotcreting. H. Surface Finish: Bring final surfaces of shotcrete to an even plane, well formed corners either square or to radius shown, working up to groun

39、d wires using somewhat lower placing velocity than normal. 1. Remove ground wires to 20 mm (3/4 inch) back from surface and fill holes with shotcrete to adjacent surface elevations. 2. Wood float surfaces to provide a smooth true finish. 3.7 CURING ACI 506.2, Paragraph 3.7. 3.8 HOT WEATHER SHOTCRETI

40、NG ACI 506R, Paragraph 8.8. 3.9 COLD WEATHER SHOTCRETING ACI 506R, Paragraph 8.9. 3.10 PROTECTION AND CLEAN-UP Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-07-11 03 37 13 - 7 A. Protection: Protect adjacent walls, windows, doors, other building su

41、rfaces, grounds and/or shrubs and property of others from damage by shotcreting, rebound and dust. 1. Construct a sealed dust partition to confine rebound and dust to immediate work area. Dust partition shall be integral with exhaust system. A negative air pressure shall be maintained within partiti

42、oned area during shotcrete applications to prevent dust leakage beyond area. 2. Immediately clean all shotcrete materials and remove all rebound from site. B. Clean-up: Continuously remove rebound material to ensure that base, intermediate, and finish surfaces are clean and ready for bonding layers.

43、 3.11 DEFECTIVE WORK General work will be evaluated be the Resident Engineer or designated agent in accordance with ACI 506.4. If the evaluation reveals unbonded work or cores fail to meet specified strengths, or finishes are unsatisfactory, repair such defective work, as approved, without additional cost to the Government. - - - END - - - Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-
