Finished lines, dimensions and surfaces shall be correct and true within tolerances specified in the Formwork Section of these Specifications. .3 Concrete not properly placed resulting in excessive honeycombing and all honeycombing and other defects in critical areas of stress, shall be repaired or replaced at the Contractor's expense and to the satisfaction of the Consultant. .4 Concrete of insufficient strength or improper consistency shall be, as required by the Consultant, subject to one or more of the following: .1 .2 .3 .4 .5 WSP Canada Inc. Changes in mix proportions for the remainder of the work. Cores drilled and tested from the areas in question as directed by the Consultant and in accordance with CAN/CSA-A23.2. The test results shall be indicative of the in-place concrete. Load testing of the structural elements in accordance with CAN/CSA-A23.3. The changes in the mix proportions and the testing shall be at the Contractor's expense. Concrete failing to meet the strength requirements of this Specification shall be strengthened or replaced at the Contractor's expense and to the satisfaction of the Consultant.

The design mix of the patching concrete shall be approved by the Consultant. .6 Fill with grout and finish smooth all openings and holes provided to accommodate the various trades. Work after all pipes, conduits, ducts and such items have been placed. 3.11 CONTROL JOINTS - SLAB ON GRADE .1 Install sawcut and formed control joints where indicated on drawings. .2 Saw cut slab to depth of 30 mm within 24 hours of casting. 3.12 VOID FORM .1 Install cardboard void form in strict accordance with manufacturers recommendations. .2 Install GeoVoid compressible void filler system in strict accordance with manufacturers recommendations. .3 Ensure reinforcing is properly and securely placed. 3.13 WALKS AND CURBS .1 Place control joints at 6 metre intervals. Joints of curbs to coincide with joints in walks. When sidewalks abutt against building, provide a continuous joint filler. .3 Make 6 mm wide dummy joints at 1.5 metre intervals, or as indicated on drawings. .4 Round all edges, including edges of dummy and control joints, with 12 mm radius edging tool. .5 Where paved surfaces are adjacent to walks, concrete curbs and gutters are to be integral with walks. Make control joints of curbs coincide with walk joints. Provide a dummy joint at line between walks and curbs. WSP Canada Inc.
