WHEREAS, in connection with sidewalk, driveway, and building construction, reconstruction, or repair, the street crub and gutter is often repaired, reconstructed or constructed by various firms, corporations, and individuals, and said street curb and gutter work is not covered by a standard city paving contract with its approval plans and specifications, and such miscellaneous street curb and gutter construction, reconstruction, or repair is desirable and often a requirement of the City Building Inspector, and such miscellaneous street curb and gutter work should be governed by a standard set of specifications, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COIIiISSION OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK: I. That the attached CITY OF LUBBOCK STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF STREET CURB AND GUTTER AND/OR STREET GUTTER be, and they are hereby adopted and approved and made a part of this resolution, to govern miscellaneous street curb and gutter work not covered by a city paving contract with its plans and specifications. CITY OF LUBBOCK STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF STREET CURB AND GUTTER AND/OR STREET GUTTER DF.SCRTPTTnM Street curb and gutter and/or street gutter shall consist of 30" portland cement concrete curb and gutter or separate gutter as shown on plans or as directed by the Engineer, Separate gutter will be placed only across alleys and driveways. Gutters across alleys or driveways shall be equal in length to the width of the alley or driveway plus the radii of the return curbs. Street Curb and Gutter will be continued around alley returns to property line as indicated on plans. Forms may be of wood or metal, of a section satisfactory to the Engineer, straight, free of wiarp„ and of a depth equal to the depth of the concrete section formed. Forms shall be constructed accurately to the line and grade as established in the field, shall be adequately braced so that they will not move during the placing of the concrete, and shall remain in place at least twelve (12) hours after placing concrete. Forms shall be oiled with a light oil before each use and forms which are to be re -used shall be leaned immediately after use and maintained in good condition. The forms shall be such that the face of the curb can be formed by use of face form held in place by steal templates. Forms used for curb radii shall meet all of the above sDecifications, and_in no case will the discontinuance of the face form on curb radii be allowed. In no case will a concrete pour be started without the Engineer's approval of the forms as placed. CONCRETE MATERIALS a. Cement Portland Cement for the curbs and gutters shall conform to the Standard Specif- ication for Portland Cement, A.S.T.M. Designated C-150, Type I.

January 13, 1938. PROPORTIONING The exact amounts of all materials entering into the concrete shal:i. be determined in the field in order to produce the desired durability, density, uniformity, workability and the' Vescified strength. One bag of cement will be considered as ninety-four (94) pounds and one gallon of water as eight and thirty-three one -hundredths (8.33) pounds. Water contained in aggregates shall be taken into account in determining the amount of water to add to the mixture. The percentage of fine to total aggregate shall be between 33% and 45%. Concrete for Curb and Gutter., and Gutter shall conform to the following: Max. Water Content U.S.Gals. Per Sack of Cement...............7.0 Min. Cement Content 94-lb. Sacks Per Cu. Yd...................5.0 Compressive strength, lbs. per sq. in..............2500-at 28 days Cement mortar used for topping curb and gutter or gutters shall be composed of one (1) part cement to two (2) parts of approved sand. The materials shall be measured by methods approved by the Engineer. PLACING RAKING JOINTS AND FINISHING Before any concrete is placed, the subgrade shall have been shaped to the line, grade and cross-section desired, andif necessary hand tamped and sprinkled for proper compaction. If dry, the subgrade shall be thoroughly moistened (not made muddy). Concrete shall be de- posited in place in such a manner as to require the minimum of rehandling and so as to obtain a uniformly dense section, free of honeycomb and conforming to the grade, thickness and shapes shown on the plans. If topping is to be used, the concrete base course shall be formed to the true section as shown on the plans for the various sections allowing for the correct mortar topping to finish to the final section. If no topping is used, the concrete shall be formed slightly above the true section in order to allow for shrinkage from working and finishing operations. The cement mortar topping, if used, shall be applied as soon as the concrete base course has been finished or as soon as the concrete has set sufficiently to allow removal of the curb face form. The operation of placing the base course and the topping shall be carried on in such a manner so that in no case shall a period of morgthan one (1) hour elapse between the placing of the base course and the application of the topping. After placing the topping on the base course in the proper thickness, it shall be shaped with floats and imwels to the approximate section to insure a bond between the two courses. The section shall then be shaped by the use of a metal screed shaped to the true cross-section. Care shall be taken at all times to prevent a coating of dust between the concrete and mortar toApin . No curb 6i gutter will_be_poured during a sandstorm. At the option of the Contractor, thishortar topping may be omitted and a homogenous type of curb and gutter be placed: Sufficient concrete shall be placed to allow for shrinkage and extra material for finishing, and the concrete shall be floated and troweled to the appro:dmate section, and after the concrete receives a partial set the face forms shall be removed. The section shall then be shaped to the true cross-section by the use of a metal -screed which is shaped to the true cross-section. Curb and gutter shall be constructed with an expansion joint at the tangent point of each return at intersections and at intervals of not more than fifty (50) feet between the intersections. Expansion joints shell be of the material hereinbefore specified. Con- true struction joints formed by removable metal plates (Stemplates) accurately shaped to the/cross- section of the curb and gutter shall be located at the mid-point/of each section between expahsiorooints on as directed by the Engineer. Contraction joints shall be placed at ten - foot intervals. All joints shall be perpendicular to the surface of the concrete and to the axis of the section. Curb and gutter shall be finished uniformly by floating with a wood float and by trowelling to an accurate cross-section. The final finish will be accomplished 4dth a brush, the last stroke being one from the back of curb to the lip of gutter. Bot of all joints, the lip of gutter, and the back edge of the curb shall be finished H approved edging tool before the final brushing. Curves at the top and bottom of t section shall be accurately shaped and finished and the finished curb and gutter sh a uniform appearance without "waves" in the face of the curb or "pockets" in the gu PROTECTING AND CURING All concrete work shall be covered with burlap or other suitable material as soon a been set sufficiently to prevent marking and kept wet continuously for at least fou Care shall be taken to prevent mechanical injury during thisberiod and until the w accepted. Any work damaged prior to acceptance shall be repaired by the Contractor expense and to the satiffaction of the Engineer. . 1� In lieu of the above method ofcuring, the curb and gutter may be cured by applying a liquid membranc a coating to all exposed surfaces, provided such material and method is first approved by the Engineer. Immediately after the removal of forms, the curb and gutter shall be backfilled with top soil and a roll of excavated material placed against the inside face of the gutter. Concrete shall be protected against low temperatures of not less than 50 degrees F. for five (5) days after placement. If aggregate and water are heated, Ithey i3hall not be heated above 175 degrees F. Concrete shall not be placed when the ambient temperature is less than 40 degrees F and falling or 35 degrees F and rising. It shall be the responsiblity of the Contractor to anticipate as nearly as possible changes in weather conditions Ach would affect the placement and protection of the concrete, and to be prepared to protect freshly p1wed concrete when sudden changes in the weather make such protection ncessary. • II. That the City Engineer and the City Building Inspector be, and they are hereby authorized to require miscellaneous street curb and gutter work to conform to these adopted and approved specifications. This resolution shall take effect and be in force from and after its passage. PASSED AND APPROVED THIS 25TH DAY OF JUNE, 1953. ATTEST: /s/ Lavenia Lowe Lavenia Lowe, City Secretary APPROVED: /s/ W.
