4. Locations where structural lightweight concrete
will be used.
5. Details which require a depressed structural
slab for tile, terrazzo, or other floor finishes in
order to provide finished surfaces at the same
elevations.
6. When exposed concrete surfaces are specified,
the locations in the finished structure shall be
indicated. If other than cast finish is required,
the type and location shall be indicated.
7.
Loading assumptions
8. Material strengths used in design, and f'c.

Tolerances
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Insert any special tolerance requirements of
the project. Select the method desired for floor
finish tolerance and delete the other. Do not use
both as a Contractor's option. An effort should be
made to begin to convert to the F-system for floor
slabs. The F-system should always be used where
very flat floors are required, particularly
warehouse aisles where high-lift forklift units or
other similar stackers will operate.
**************************************************************************
Except as otherwise specified herein, tolerances for concrete batching,
mixture properties, and construction as well as definition of terms and
application practices shall be in accordance with ACI 117. Level and grade
tolerance measurements of slabs shall be made as soon as possible after
finishing; when forms or shoring are used, the measurements shall be made
prior to removal.
