503.10 Method of Measurement Reinforcing steel bars, either pl ain, galvanized,
stainless, epoxy-coated, zinc and epoxy dual-coated, or low-car bon chromium, shall be measured by the computed number of pounds or by the lump sum, o f steel reinforcement authorized, as indicated in the Contract. Welded steel wire fa bric shall be measured by the computed number of pounds or by the lump sum of fabric authoriz ed, as indicated in the Contract. Splices made using mechanical devices or by welding, as shown on the Plans or required by the specifications, will be measured as the number of splices of each kind satisfactorily made and accepted. Weights will be computed in accordance with the following: For steel bars, either plain, galvanized, stainless, epoxy-coat ed, zinc and epoxy dual- coated, or low-carbon chromium, weights will be computed in acc ordance with the following table: US CUSTOMARY UNITS Pounds per Foot Bar Size #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 #8 #9 #10 #11 Weight 0.376 0.668 1.043 1.502 2.044 2.67 3.4 4.303 5.313 For welded steel wire fabric, weights will be computed in accor dance with the following table: US CUSTOMARY UNITS Size in inches 6 by 6 3 by 6 4 by 4 6 by 6 Gauge W1.4 by W1.4 W1.4 by W1.4 W1.4 by W1.4 W2.9 by W2.9 Weight (lbs./100 ft2) 21 30 31 42 For other sizes of fabric, the commercially recognized weights will be used. No addition to, or deduction from, the theoretical weight per f oot of the uncoated bars will be made because of additional requirements for blast clean ing and epoxy, zinc, or dual- coating of the bars. Lapped splices and splices made using mechanical devices or by welding, that are authorized at the Contractor's request, will not be measured fo r payment.
503.11 Basis of Payment The accepted quantity of reinforcing s teel, either plain,
stainless or low carbon chromium, will be paid for at the Contr act unit price per pound or by the lump sum, for each item involved, complete, and accepted. The accepted quantity of epoxy-coated, galvanized or zinc and e poxy dual-coated reinforcing steel will be paid for at the Contract unit price p er pound or by the lump sum, for each item involved, complete and accepted, and all additional e xpenses that may be incurred 5-64 by the Contractor or their suppliers as a result of the require ments in these specifications will be considered incidental to, and included in, the Contract unit price per pound or lump sum price. When reinforcing steel schedules are required, they shall be co nsidered incidental to the related Contract items. Payment for work associated with revis ions to the reinforcing steel schedule, required when the Department allows the use of precas t concrete deck panels, or any other significant changes that affect the quantity of reinf orcing steel, shall be considered incidental to related Contract items. The accepted quantity of welded steel wire fabric will be paid for at the Contract unit price per pound or by the lump sum, in place, complete and acce pted. The accepted quantity of mechanical and/or welded splices will be paid for at the Contract unit price each, complete and accepted, for each type specified. Payment will not be made for any materials used to hold reinfor cement in place or for extra weight due to substitutions and splices made for the Cont ractor's convenience. When reinforcing steel is speci fied to be anchored into drilled holes, no additional payment will be made for drilling and anchoring reinforcing ste el or cutting of reinforcing steel to embedment lengths. Payment for additional material samples, as required for testin g by the Department, shall be considered incidental to related Contract items. Payment will be made under: Pay Item Pay Unit
