increased to 5 inches, allowing a maximum of 6 inches as a tolerance. Commence
testing for slump within 0 to 4 minutes after the FRC is discharged.
B. Fiber.
1. General.
Fiber reinforcement shall consist of macro fibers.
2. Macro Fiber.
a. Use product approved in accordance with Materials I.M. 491.27 Appendix B.
b. Dose macro fiber at a minimum rate of 4 pounds per cubic yard of concrete.
C. Documentation and Acceptance of Fiber Reinforced Concrete.
1. FRC shall comply with ASTM C1116, Type III. Furnish documentary evidence by the fiber
manufacturer demonstrating satisfactory performance history and compliance with ASTM
C1116, Type III for fiber product(s) used.
2. A trial batch and test placement will be required in accordance with DS-23083.03, A.
Acceptance of the FRC mix shall be contingent on successful completion of the trial batch and
test placement. At a minimum, the trial batch and test placement must demonstrate all the
following:
• Compliance with the contract documents and specified material properties.
• Acceptable workability.
• Batching and finishing processes representative of the proposed means and methods of
construction for production work.
• No detrimental effects associated with mix inconsistency, mix segregation, bleeding, or
balling of fibers.
23083.03 CONSTRUCTION.
A. Trial Batch and Test Placement.
1. General.
a. Provide the Engineer notice, mix proportions, and scheduled date at least 7 calendar days
prior to trial batch and test placement. Do not proceed with trial batch and test placement
without authorization of the Engineer.
b. Conduct trial batch and test placement at least 7 calendar days prior to planned
placement of production FRC.
c. Do not place production FRC until the trial batch and test placement have been accepted
by the Engineer. Trial batches or test placements which fail to meet acceptance criteria
must be repeated at no additional cost to the Contracting Authority, following appropriate
material and/or procedure modifications by the Contractor.
d. After acceptance of the trial batch and test placement, any contractor-initiated changes to
the mix design, fiber product or dosage, mix batching process, and/or methods of
installation shall constitute basis for requiring a new trial batch and test placement at no
additional cost to the Contracting Authority.
DS-23083, Page 3 of 5
e. The Engineer may waive the trial batch and test placement on the basis of past
successful placement of the same combination of mix design, fiber product and dosage,
mix batching process (including key personnel), and installation process (including key
personnel).
2. Trial Batch.
a. Identify dedicated batching personnel for FRC.
b. Establish and demonstrate the sequence of constituent material introduction during the
trial batch. Ensure the fiber manufacturer’s technical representative is available for advice
and guidance regarding fiber inclusion into the mix, as needed.
c. Batch the trial batch concrete for slump within 1 inch of the maximum slump permitted, air
content of 6% +/- 1% intended target for the production placement ± 2%, and w/c ratio
typical of the production FRC to be placed. Include any other admixtures proposed for
use in the production FRC, including but not limited to water reducers, viscosity modifiers
and set retarders as applicable, at their respective intended production dosage rates.
d. Sample and test the trial batch placement for the following:
• Materials I.M. 340 – Unit Weight of Plastic Concrete.
• Materials I.M. 318 – Air Content of Plastic Concrete.
• Materials I.M. 317 – Slump of Plastic Concrete
• Visual Stability of Plastic Concrete – Following slump test performed in accordance
with Materials I.M. 317, leave slumped concrete undisturbed on the test board for 3
minutes and observe for mortar ring or bleed water at the base of the concrete.
Report presence, description, and size of any mortar ring and/or bleed water halo.
e. Trial batch volume shall be in accordance with the following:
• Bridge Decks and Deck Overlays: 6 cubic yards, minimum.
• Non-Deck Applications; 3 cubic yards, minimum.
3. Test Placement.
a. General.
1) Utilize the trial batch concrete to conduct a test placement. Subject to the
requirements herein, the test placement may not require use of the full volume of trial
batch concrete.
2) Test placement shall be made within side/edge forms, on sufficiently rigid subbase, to
allow representative demonstration of the placement and finishing methods proposed
for production work. Use a durable, impermeable separation barrier between the
subbase and test placement.
3) Place, consolidate and finish the concrete within the test placement using methods
that are representative of the methods to be used with the production concrete. For
production methods deemed impractical to duplicate during the test pour (e.g. pump
placement, self-propelled machine finishing), substitute methods may be used
subject to the Engineer’s approval, provided the substitute methods allow full
evaluation of any/all mix properties that may affect the actual production methods.
Evaluate workability, finishability, and general suitability of the mix for production use.
4) Following completion of the test placement, deposit any remaining trial batch
concrete to an open container or other accessible location to allow further inspection
for potential mix inconsistency, mix segregation, bleeding, balling of fibers, or other
detrimental properties. Do not obscure or dispose of the trial batch or test placement
concrete until a minimum time of 2 hours has elapsed after completion of the test
placement, or until authorized by the Engineer, whichever comes first.
b. Test Placement for Bridge Decks and Deck Overlays.
1) Simulate the general placement conditions for production concrete. Conduct the test
placement in open air, during weather generally consistent with the anticipated
conditions during production placement.
2) Following trial batching, suspend the test placement for a period of time
approximately equal to the anticipated delivery time for production concrete. During
this suspension, maintain the concrete in a state of agitation generally representative
DS-23083, Page 4 of 5
of the anticipated delivery conditions for production concrete.
3) The area of the test placement shall be a minimum of 200 square feet. The least
horizontal dimension of the test placement shall be a minimum of 12 feet. Nominal
thickness of the test placement shall match as close as practical the nominal
thickness of the production concrete, except nominal thickness of the test placement
need not exceed 9 inches.
4) Test placements for bridge decks shall include reinforcing steel, oriented in two mats
of two layers each (longitudinal and transverse). Reinforcing steel shall have similar
size, spacing, top clearance to top mat and bottom clearance to bottom mat, as
shown in the contract documents for the production work. No reinforcing steel is
required for test placements for bridge deck overlays.
c. Test Placement for Non-Deck Applications.
Deposit the trial batch concrete into formwork with minimum dimensions of at least 3 feet
length by 3 feet width by 3 feet depth. Alternate formwork dimensions may be permitted,
subject to approval by the Engineer.
B. Production FRC.
