Testing Materisla Standard Method C 39-44.

cylinders taken,

Of the three

one will be tested for strength at 7 days

and one will be tested for strength at 28 days; the third

will be tested for strength at an elapsed time interval to
be determined by the Engineer.
If six cylinders are taken,

three shall be tested at 7-days and three at 28 days.

Con-

crete made with high-early-strength cement shall have a 7day compressive strength equal to the specified minimum 28day compressive strength for concrete of the type specified
made with ordinary Portland cement.

STORAGE:

Storage accommodations shall be subject to

the approval of the Engineer, and shall be such as to permit easy access for inspection and definite identification
of each shipment in accordance with the report of tests.

a.
Cement:
Immediately upon receipt at the site
of the work, cement shall be stored with adequate provision
for the prevention of absorption of moisture.

b.
Aggregate: Aggregate shall be stored to avoid
the inclusion of any foreign matter in the aggregate and
resulting concrete.
Storage piles shall be maintained in
& manner that will afford good drainage, prevent segregation of particle size and preserve the aggregate gradation.
Sufficient live storage shall be maintained at all times tc

allow placement of concrete at the required rate and permit
application of such procedures as identification and inspec.
tion.

TYPES OF CONCRETE AND USAGE:
&.

Coral Aggregate Concrete: Coral aggregate: con-

crete of the various types required shall be proportioned a

mixed for the strength as called for on tne urawings or as
prescribed by the Engineer. All conerete for structural
use not called for on the drawings, in these specifications

or prescribed by the Engineer shall be 2000 p.s.i. at 28
days.
A minimum of 1500 p.s.i. concrete may be psed for non

structural work.
Coral aggregate concrete shall be: used
for all general concrete work unless otherwise directed by
the Engineer.

b.
Limonite Aggregate Concrete:
Limonite aggregate
concrete of the types required shall be proportioned and
mixed for the necessary strength as called for on the drawings,

in these specifications,

or as prescribed by the En-

gineer.
Limonite aggregate concrete shall be used in the
scientific structures stations as called for on the drawing
