This document provides a summary of ACI 301M-99 Specifications for Structural Concrete. It can be cited by engineers and architects on any construction project to specify concrete requirements. The specification covers materials, proportioning, production, placement, finishing, and curing of concrete. It also addresses formwork design, treatment of joints and embedded items, surface defect repair, and finishing of formed and unformed surfaces. Separate sections cover architectural concrete, lightweight concrete, mass concrete, prestressed concrete, and shrinkage-compensating concrete. It includes provisions for testing, evaluation, and acceptance of the concrete and structure.

Maxwell * Deceased SYNOPSIS This Specification is a Reference Specification that the Engineer or Architect can make applicable to any construction project by citing it in the Project Specifications. The Architect/Engineer supplements the provisions of this Reference Specification as needed by designating or specifying individual project requirements. The document covers materials and proportioning of concrete; reinforcing and prestressing steels; production, placing, fin- ishing, and curing of concrete; and formwork design and construction. Methods of treatment of joints and embedded items, repair of surface defects, and finishing of formed and unformed surfaces are specified. Separate sections are devoted to archi- tectural concrete, lightweight concrete, mass concrete, prestressed concrete, and shrinkage-compensating concrete. Provisions governing testing, evaluation, and acceptance of concrete as well as acceptance of the structure are included. Keywords: admixtures; aggregates; air entrainment; architectural concrete; buildings; cements; cold-weather construction; compressive strength; concrete construction; concrete durability; concrete slab; concretes; consolidation; conveying; cur- ing; density; evaluation; exposed-aggregate finish; finishes; floors; formwork (construction); grouting; hot-weather con- struction; inspection; joints (contraction, construction, and isolation); lightweight concrete; materials; mixture proportioning; mixing; placing; prestressed concrete; prestressing steels; reinforced concrete; reinforcing steels; repairs; reshoring; shoring; shrinkage-compensating concrete; specifications; subgrades; temperature; tests; tolerances; water- cementitious materials ratio, (w/cm); welded wire fabric.
