The mortar finished surface shall slope not less than 1:3 (V:H) and shall be feathered smoothly into the deck beam surfaces. The finish shall be free of depressions or sharp edges. The mortar shall be cured for a period of not less than three days by the wetted burlap method according to Article 1020.13(a)(3). Curing shall commence as soon as practicable after mortar placement.
583.04 Method of Measurement. This work will be measured for payment in
feet (meters) along the beam edges.
583.05 Basis of Payment. This work will be paid for at the contract unit price
per foot (meter) for PORTLAND CEMENT MORTAR FAIRING COURSE. SECTION 584. GROUTING OF ANCHOR RODS AND BARS
584.01 Description. This work shall consist of drilling and grouting anchor
rods and bars into hardened concrete.
584.02 Materials. Materials shall be according to the following.
Item Article/Section
a.Chemical Adhesive Resin System .......................................................... 1027 CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS
584.03 General. Holes shall be drilled in the concrete to 1/4 in. (6 mm) larger
in diameter than the diameter of the anchor rods or bars and to the depth shown on the plans. A template or other approved method shall be used to ensure accurate location of the drilled holes. All holes shall be blown free of concrete dust and chips and shall be absolutely dry prior to placing the chemical adhesive. Prior to inserting the anchor rod or bar into the hole, the hole shall be filled approximately 1/3 full of the mixed chemical adhesive. The anchor rod or bar shall be inserted into the partially filled hole and moved up and down several times to ensure total contact of the chemical adhesive with concrete as well as the rod or bar. Additional chemical adhesive shall be extruded to proper concrete level and finished as necessary. The anchor rod or bar shall be aligned to maintain a perpendicular plane. No load shall be applied to the anchors until the chemical adhesive has cured for at least 24 hours.
584.04 Basis of Payment. This work will not be measured or paid for
separately, but shall be considered as included in the unit price bid for the item of construction involved. SECTION 585. RESERVED Art. 586.01 Granular Backfill for Structures SECTION 586. GRANULAR BACKFILL FOR STRUCTURES

follows.
a.Contract Quantities. The requirements for the use of contract quantities shall conform to Article 202.07(a).
b.Measured Quantities. This work will be measured for payment in place and the volume computed in cubic yards (cubic meters). The volume will be determined by the method of average end areas behind the abutment.
586.05 Basis of Payment. This work will be paid for at the contract unit price
per cubic yard (cubic meter) for GRANULAR BACKFILL FOR STRUCTURES. SECTION 587. CONCRETE SEALER
