3. Clear Sealer: Acrylic resin liquid material,
suitable for application to cured slabs to protect stamped surfaces from discoloration, stains and moisture.
4. Stamping Tools: Manufacturer standard mats, to
provide the patterns indicated on Drawings after being tamped with special tamping machines.
E. Brick for Edging/Banding: Conform to the requirements
of Section 2515 - UNIT PAVERS. F. Vapor Barrier: Polyethylene sheets of thickness 250
micron and 150 mm overlapping for areas under concrete. G. Joint Filler: Asphalt saturated fiber board conforming
to ASTM D 1751. H. Joint Sealant: Cold applied, pourable, polyurethane-
based 2-component elastomeric sealant conforming to ASTM C 920, Type M, Grade P, Class 25 or FS-SS-S-200 or FS-SS-S-227 jet-fuel resistant.
3. PART 3 - EXECUTION 3.01 SUBGRADE PREPARATION A. Construct subgrade true to grades and cross-sections
shown on Drawings. Excavation, backfill, fill and compaction shall conform to requirements specified in Section 02200 - EARTHWORK. Check the compacted subgrade for grade and cross-section using template supported on side forms. Provide polyethylene vapor barrier sheets with minimum 150 mm overlapping before placing reinforcement and concrete.
3.02 FORM CONSTRUCTION A. Formwork shall conform to the requirements specified in
Section 03100 - CONCRETE FORMWORK. Set forms to the required grades and lines, rigidly braced and secured.
B. Check completed formwork for grade and alignment to the
following tolerances: 1. Grade: Plus or minus 3 mm. 2. Alignment: Plus or minus 6 mm at any point and no
more than 3 mm deviation from a 3 meter straight edge.
02500-5 Concrete Walkways
C. Clean forms after each use and coat with form release agent.
3.03 REINFORCEMENT A. Locate, place, and support reinforcement in conformance
with Section 03200 - CONCRETE REINFORCEMENT. 3.04 CONCRETE PLACEMENT A. Conform to the requirements of Section 03300 - CAST-IN-
PLACE CONCRETE for mixing, transportation and placing concrete and as specified herein.
B. Do not place concrete until subgrade and forms have
been checked for line and grade. Provide polyethylene sheet vapor barrier over subgrade before placing reinforcement and concrete. Do not place concrete around structures or frames until they have been brought to the required grade and alignment.
C. Place concrete in one course monolithic construction
for the full width and depth of walks, and in staggered and checkered manner.
D. Spread concrete as soon as it is deposited on the
subgrade using methods which prevent segregation of the mix. Consolidate concrete along the face of forms and adjacent to transverse joints with an internal vibrator. Keep vibrator away from joint assemblies, reinforcement, or side forms. Use square-faced shovels for hand spreading and consolidation. Consolidate with care to prevent dislocation of reinforcing and joint materials.
E. Strike-off fresh concrete and compact until a layer of
mortar is brought to the surface. Finish the surface to grade and cross section with a trowel smooth and/or broom finish as required. Perform concrete finishing using machine or hand method as approved by the Engineer. Broom transversely to the line of foot traffic. If necessary, apply water to the surface immediately before brooming. Broom finish shall match the approved sample.
F. Unless indicated otherwise on the drawings, mark the
surface of walks into rectangles measuring not less than 1 m² not over 2 m², unless approved otherwise. Use a scoring tool which leaves the edges rounded.
G. Concrete Curing: Conform to the requirements specified
in Section 03300 - CAST-IN-PLACE CONCRETE.
02500-6 Concrete Walkways
H. Hot Weather Placing: Conform to the requirements specified in Section 03300 - CAST-IN-PLACE CONCRETE.
3.05 STAMPED CONCRETE A. Concrete surfaces, indicated to receive a stamped
pattern shall be troweled to a smooth finish and left until concrete reaches a plastic stage.
B. Apply color hardener in 2 coats. Float surface using
Bull-Float after each coat, unless otherwise recommended by manufacturer.
C. Apply color release in one coat, same manner as above,
prior to stamping, unless otherwise recommended by manufacturer.
D. Stamping: Place stamping mats on concrete surfaces
according to the patterns indicated on the Drawings. Tamp mats using manufacturer standard methods and tamping machines.
E. Remove stamping mats. F. Second day after stamping, remove extra color release
and cut joints as recommended by manufacturer. Repair damaged areas as required.
G. After proper curing, depending on weather conditions,
apply clear sealer to stamped clean surfaces by roller or spray. Number of coats shall be as recommended by manufacturer and as appropriate for the intended application.
H. Do not allow traffic on all stamped areas until sealer
is applied and completely dry (second day after application as a minimum).
3.06 JOINTS A. General 1. Construct expansion, construction, isolation, and
contraction joints true-to-line with the face perpendicular to the surface of the walks.
2. Construct transverse joints at right angles to the
pavement centerline, unless otherwise indicated. B. Contraction Joints 1. Provide contraction joints, to section the walkway
into areas as shown on the drawings. Construct
02500-7 Concrete Walkways
weakened-plane joints to a depth equal to at least 1/4 the walkway thickness, as follows:
a. Tooled Joints: Form weakened-plane joints in
the fresh concrete by grooving the top portion of the slabs with a recommended cuttings tool and finishing edges with a joiner.
b. Saw Cut Joints: Saw cut to a width equal to 1/2
depth and fill with joint sealant. C. Construction Joints 1. Place construction joints at the end of pours and
at locations where placement operations are stopped for a period of more than 1/2 hour, except where such pours terminate at expansion joints.
2. Construct joints as shown on Drawings. Where not
shown, use standard metal keyway-section forms. D. Expansion and Isolation Joints 1. Provide 6 mm wide expansion joints at returns and
intervals not greater than 9 m along the walkway, unless otherwise indicated on the drawings.
2. Provide pre-molded joint filler for expansion
joints and isolation joints abutting concrete paving and curbs, gutters, catch basins, manholes, inlets, structures, walks, and other fixed objects.
3. Extend joint fillers full width and depth of the
joint, and not less than 12 mm or more than 25 mm below the finished pavement surface where joint sealer is indicated. If no joint sealer, place top of joint filler flush with finished concrete surfaces.
4. Use joint fillers in one-piece lengths for the full
width being placed wherever possible. Where more than one length is required, lace or clip joint filler sections together.
5. Protect the top edge of the joint filler during
concrete placement with a metal cap or other temporary material. Remove protection after both sides of joint are placed.
3.07 CURING A. Protect and cure finished concrete walks in conformance
with the requirements of Section 03300 - CAST-IN-PLACE
02500-8 Concrete Walkways
CONCRETE. Use moist-curing methods of initial curing whenever possible. After removal of forms, extend curing to exposed edges.
3.08 FIELD QUALITY ASSURANCE A. Conform to the applicable requirements specified in
Section 03300 - CAST-IN-PLACE CONCRETE. 3.09 REPAIR AND PROTECTION A. Repair or replace broken or defective walks as directed
by the Engineer. B. Protect the walks from damage until acceptance of the
Work. Exclude pedestrian traffic from walks for at least 14 days after placement.
C. Sweep concrete walkways and pavings, and wash free of
stains, discolorations, dirt, and other foreign material.
