from the Engineer. If the test panel(s) is incorporated into the Work, it shall remain in place <br /> accepted as a single lot. <br /> 5-06.3(11) Joints <br /> Construct joints at the locations, depths and with horizontal dimensions indicated on plans <br /> unless noted otherwise in this section. Joints shall be of three (3) types: construction, <br /> contraction, isolation. Construction joints shall be formed at the end of a day's work or when <br /> necessary to stop production for any reason. Contraction joints shall be used to control random <br /> cracking. Isolation joints shall be used where the pervious concrete abuts existing facilities or <br /> where shown on the Plans. <br /> 5-06.3(11)A Construction Joints <br /> Construction joints shall be located at the location of a planned contraction or isolation joint. <br /> Construction joints are to be formed by placing a header between the forms, at right angles, to <br /> the full depth of the finished pervious concrete, and set to the height of the forms. Pervious <br /> concrete shall be placed against the header and compacted and finished as normal, including <br /> edging. The header shall remain in place until paving resumes. <br /> 5-06.3(11)B Contraction Joints <br /> Contraction joints (transverse and longitudinal) shall be constructed at the locations and <br /> intervals shown in the Contract. Contraction joints shall be a depth of 1/3 the thickness of the <br /> pervious concrete pavement section and have a width of no more than 1/4 inch. Contraction <br /> joints shall not be saw cut unless specifically noted on the Plans. Saw cut joints shall have a <br /> minimum width of 1/8 inch. Plastic formed contraction joints shall be tooled on both sides of the <br /> joint with a radius of% inch. Tool joint to the depth and width in fresh concrete immediately after <br /> the concrete is compacted. <br /> 5-06.3(11)C Isolation Joints <br /> Isolation joints shall be placed where the pervious concrete abuts existing structures or where <br /> shown on the Plans. Isolation joints shall continue through the depth of the pervious concrete <br /> using a 3/8 inch premolded joint filler meeting the requirements of Section 9-04.1(2). Isolation <br /> joints may be formed by forming a construction joint and affixing the premolded joint filler <br /> against one side of the joint and placing fresh pervious concrete against it. Isolation joints and <br /> filler shall be flush with the surrounding pervious concrete and shall not deviate from the <br /> acceptance criteria for smoothness as shown in Section 5-06.3(6). The edge of the pervious <br /> concrete adjacent the premolded joint filler shall be hand tooled with a % inch radius. <br /> 5-06.3(12) Cold Weather Work <br /> When concrete is being placed and the ambient air temperature is expected to drop below 35° F <br /> during the day or night, the Contractor shall protect the concrete from freezing. The Contractor <br /> shall submit for approval a Cold Weather Plan prior to placing concrete when ambient air <br /> temperature below 35° F is anticipated, or when requested by the Engineer. When a Cold <br /> Weather Plan is required, pervious concrete shall not be placed without an approved Cold <br /> Weather Plan. <br /> Under the Cold Weather Plan, the Contractor shall, provide a sufficient supply of straw, hay, <br /> blankets, or other suitable blanketing material and spread it over the pavement to a sufficient <br /> depth to prevent freezing of the concrete. The blanket material shall be placed on top of the <br /> sheet curing materials and covered with a layer of burlap or plastic sheeting, weighted or <br /> anchored to prevent the wind from displacing the insulation.
