The aggregate sources listed in paragraph COMMERCIAL CONCRETE AGGREGATE
SOURCES, have been tested and, at the time testing was performed, were
capable of producing materials of the quality required for this project,
provided suitable processing is performed. Samples from any source
selected, whether listed or not listed, consisting of not less than [_____]
kg pounds of each size coarse aggregate and [_____] kg pounds of fine
aggregate, and taken under the supervision of the Contracting Officer in
accordance with COE CRD-C 100, shall be delivered to [_____] within 15 days
after Notice to Proceed. Sampling, shipment, and testing of samples shall
be at the Contractor's expense. [_____] days will be required to complete
evaluation of the aggregates. All quality assurance testing will be
performed by the Government in accordance with the applicable COE CRD-C or
ASTM test methods. Tests to which aggregate may be subjected are listed in
paragraph QUALITY. The material from the proposed source shall meet the
quality requirements of this paragraph to be used for this project. The
Government test data and other information on aggregate quality of those
sources listed in PART 2 are included in the Design Memorandum and are
available for review in the district office. Quality assurance testing of
aggregates by the Government does not relieve the Contractor of quality
control requirements.
1.3.1.2
Cementitious Materials and Admixtures
[At least [_____] days in advance of submitting samples for mixture
proportioning studies,] [Not later than [_____] days after Notice to
Proceed] the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer of the source,
brand name, type, and quantity of all materials (other than aggregates) to
be used in the manufacture and curing of the concrete. The Contractor
shall assist the Contracting Officer in obtaining samples of each material.
Sampling and testing as determined appropriate will be performed by and at
the expense of the Government. If cement or fly ash are to be obtained
from more than one source, the notification shall state the estimated
