Including fly ash in mixes where permitted. Not applicable if a specified amount of fly ash is listed with the mix. The minimum cement requirement may be met by substituting 1.33 lb. of fly ash for each 1.0 lb. of Portland cement replaced, to the maximum allowed ratio of fly ash to cement. The maximum ratio of fly ash to Portland cement shall be limited to 20%. 2. Tolerance on air content shall be as delivered. 103 #57, 1" 3. Normal weight. 4. Steel fibers are required in floor slabs designated "CWT" on Architectural finish schedule. 5. The Architectural concrete mix shall be designed to minimize shrinkage. A retarder shall be used to minimize heat gain and maximize long-term strength gain. A high range water-reducing admixture shall be used to limit the W/C ratio. The retarder may cause a delay in removal of the formwork. Strength development of the concrete may be critical in cycling formwork, depending on form system. General Conditions: The contractor shall read the General Conditions and Supplementary General Conditions which are a part of these Specifications.
