90-6 LIGHTWEIGHT CONCRETE

90-6.01 GENERAL

90-6.01A Summary

Section 90-6 includes specifications for furnishing lightweight concrete.

Lightweight concrete must be composed of cementitious material, lightweight coarse and fine aggregates, admixtures if used, and water.

Concrete at precast capitals must be lightweight concrete.

90-6.01B Definitions

Not Used

90-6.01C Submittals

90-6.01C(1) General

Submit the prequalification data or reports and the proposed mix design at least 45 days before placing the lightweight concrete.


53

Submit certified copies of the manufacturer's test reports showing the estimated fresh concrete unit weight that results in the selected air-dry unit weight.

90-6.01C(2) Mix Design

Submit the mix design. Include the type, brand, weight, and absolute volume of each ingredient for each concrete type and strength.

Report the weight for each aggregate for a surface-dry condition, including moisture absorbed in the aggregate; for an oven-dry condition; or for the condition proposed for use.

Include with the mix design written verification that arrangements have been made for the Engineer to obtain test samples. The test samples of lightweight aggregates will not exceed 500 lb for each separate grading.

90-6.01D Quality Control and Assurance

90-6.01D(1) General

Not Used

90-6.01D(2) Prequalification

Prequalify the lightweight concrete by submitting certified test data or trial batch test reports under section 90-1.01D(5)(b), except for PC concrete you must prequalify by submitting trial batch test reports. Dispose of the trial batches.

90-6.01D(3) Unit Weight of Fresh Concrete

Determine the unit weight of fresh concrete under California Test 518.

90-6.01D(4) Air-Dry Unit Weight

Determine the air-dry unit weight as follows:

1. Test three 6-inch-diameter by 12-inch-tall cylinders. 2. Prepare the cylinders under ASTM C 192/C 192M or ASTM C 31/C 31M, whichever is applicable. 3. Cure the cylinders for 6 days. 4. On the 6th day, remove the cylinders from the molds or curing media and immerse them in water at

73.4 ± 3 degrees F for 24 hours. 5. Determine the suspended-immersed weights of the cylinders. 6. Remove the cylinders from the water and determine the saturated surface-dry weights. 7. Dry the cylinders for 90 days at 73.4 ± 3 degrees F and a relative humidity of 50 ± 5 percent. 8. Weigh the dried cylinders. 9. Use the following equation to calculate the air-dry unit weight:

W = (A x 62.3)/(B – C) where: W = air-dry unit weight, pcf A = 90-day dried weight of the cylinder, lb B = saturated surface-dry weight of the cylinder, lb C = suspended-immersed weight of the cylinder, lb

90-6.01D(5) Penetration

The Engineer performs penetration testing using a lightweight ball penetrator under California Test 533.

90-6.01D(6) Air Content

The Engineer determines the concrete air content under ASTM C 173/C 173 M.

90-6.01D(7) Compressive Strength

The Engineer determines the compressive strength under section 90-1.01D(5).

90-6.02 MATERIALS

90-6.02A General

The unit weight of the fresh concrete used in the work must not vary from the weight shown in the test report by more than 4 pcf.

The air-dry unit weight of lightweight concrete furnished for each mix design must be a single weight from 109 to 115 pcf for prestressed concrete and from 104 to 110 pcf for nonprestressed concrete.

The total air content of freshly mixed concrete must not exceed 6 percent.

Lightweight concrete must have a 28-day compressive strength of at least 4,000 psi.

90-6.02B Cementitious Material

Lightweight concrete must contain from 590 to 845 pounds of cementitious material per cubic yard, except lightweight concrete used in deck slabs and slab spans of bridges must contain at least 675 pounds of cementitious material per cubic yard.

90-6.02C Aggregate

The fine aggregate must consist of lightweight fine aggregate, natural sand or manufactured sand fine aggregate, or a combination of these, as required to comply with the air-dry unit weight requirements.

Lightweight aggregates must comply with ASTM C 330/C 330M, except the splitting tensile strength and drying shrinkage requirements do not apply.

Lightweight aggregates must be rotary kiln expanded shale or clay having a surface sealed by firing. Do not crush the coarse aggregate after firing, except aggregate that is 3/4 inch and smaller may be crushed as necessary to produce the required coarse aggregate grading. The final coarse aggregate size must not exceed 3/4 inch.

The shrinkage characteristics of lightweight aggregates must be such that the drying shrinkage of the lightweight concrete produced does not exceed 0.040 percent after 14 days of drying when tested under California Test 537.

Lightweight aggregates must have no more than 5 percent loss when tested for soundness under California Test 214.

90-6.02D Proportioning

At the time of batching, adjust the authorized aggregate weight to compensate for surface moisture and absorbed moisture.

After authorization of the mix design, do not alter the materials and batch proportions during the work, except as required to maintain the authorized cementitious material content and unit weight. The cementitious material content of individual batches must not vary from the authorized cementitious material content by more than from -15 to +25 pounds of cementitious material per cubic yard of concrete.

Batch the lightweight fine aggregate and natural sand by weight. Batch the lightweight coarse aggregate by weight or volumetric methods. If volumetric methods are used, the batching equipment must allow the Engineer to check the weight of each aggregate size in the batch.

Limit the absolute volume of coarse aggregate such that no concrete segregation occurs during mixing, transporting, placing, consolidating, or finishing. For site-cast concrete, the absolute volume of coarse aggregate must not exceed 10 cubic feet per cubic yard of concrete.

Uniformly prewet or presaturate the aggregates such that uniform penetration of the concrete is maintained. For lightweight concrete that is to be pumped, presaturate the aggregates using thermal, vacuum, or equivalent methods.

Lightweight concrete must have adequate workability such that proper placement, consolidation, and finishing are attained.
