support vertical and lateral loads that might be applied, until such loads can be supported by the concrete structure.

2. Construct formwork so concrete members and structures are of correct size, shape, alignment, elevation, and position.

3. Support form materials by structural members spaced sufficiently close to prevent objectionable deflection.

4. Provide formwork sufficiently tight to prevent leakage of cement paste during concrete placement. Solidly butt joints and provide backup material at joints as required to prevent leakage and prevent fins.

PART 3 - EXECUTION 3.1 SURFACE CONDITIONS

A. Examine the areas and conditions under which work of this Section will be performed. Correct conditions detrimental to timely and proper completion of the work. Do not proceed until unsatisfactory conditions are corrected.

3.2 FORM CONSTRUCTION A. General:

M02-14392-1

Page 97: McCarty's Cove Specification Guidelines

2. Provide for openings, offsets, keyways, recesses, moldings, reglets,

chambers, blocking, screeds, bulk heads, anchorages, inserts, and other features as required.

2. Provide crush plates or wrecking plates where stripping may damage cast concrete surfaces.

3. Kerf wood inserts for forming keyways, reglets, recesses, and the like, to prevent swelling and assure ease of removal.

C. Forms for exposed concrete:

1. Provide sharp, clean corners at intersecting planes, without visible edges or offsets. Back the joints with extra studs or girts to maintain true, square intersections.

2. Use extra studs, wales, and bracing to prevent objectionable bowling of forms between studs, and to avoid bowed appearance in concrete. Do not use narrow strips of form material which will produce bow.

D. Locate control joints as indicated on the Drawings and, where required but

not shown on the Drawings, as approved by the Architect. E. Coordination:

1. Provide openings in concrete formwork to accommodate work of other trades.

2. Verify size and location of openings, recesses, and chases with the trade requiring such items.

3. Accurately place and securely support items to be built into the concrete.

3.3 FORM COATINGS

A. Coat form contact surfaces with form coating compound before reinforcement is placed.

1. Do not allow excess form coating material to accumulate in the forms or to come in contact with surfaces which will bond to fresh concrete.

2. Apply the form coating material in strict accordance with its manufacturer's recommendations.

3.4 REMOVAL OF FORMS A. General:

1. Do not disturb or remove forms until the concrete has hardened sufficiently to permit form removal with complete safety.

M02-14392-1

Page 98: McCarty's Cove Specification Guidelines

2. Do not remove shoring until the member has acquired sufficient

strength to support its own weight, the load upon it, and the added load of construction.

3. Do not strip floor slabs in less than two days. B. Finished surfaces:

1. Exercise care in removing forms from finished concrete surfaces so that surfaces are not marred or gouged, and that corners are true, sharp, and unbroken.

2. Do not permit steel spreaders, form ties, or other metal to project from, or be visible on, any concrete surface except where so shown on the Drawings.
