NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Section 700 STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS (USC) May 1, 202 4 VOLUME 4 SAMPLING AND TESTING

A.Lot Size. Sampling, testing and acceptance consideration will be made on a lot basis. A lot shall be defined as those bearings presented for inspection at a specific time or date. A lot shall be further defined as the smallest number of bearings as determined by the following criteria:

1.A lot shall not exceed a single contract quantity

2.A lot shall consist of bearings with the elastomer being of the same dimensions and configuration

3.A lot shall consist of bearings produced in a continuous manner.

B.Procedure. The Department's representative shall select at random the required sample bearings from completed lots of bearings for testing by the Materials Bureau. The manufacturer shall supply the Department's representative with a copy of an approved Welding Procedure for each welding process used in the manufacture of the bearings. Bearings with a plan area greater than 4 sf shall be tested by an outside laboratory approved by the Materials Bureau. The Department shall assume the cost of testing the sampled bearings and the Contractor shall assume the responsibility and cost of transporting the sampled bearings from the place of manufacture to the testing laboratory. After testing the Contractor has the responsibility for the cost of transporting th e sampled bearings back to the bearing manufacturer or, if applicable, to the project site. All samples shall be taken and delivered for test in accordance with the Department's written instructions. A minimum of thirty (30) days shall be allowed for inspection, sampling and testing by the Materials Bureau. This thirty days is exclusive of shipping time which is the Contractor's responsibility. The sampling procedure and test methods may be obtained from the Materials Bureau. BASIS OF ACCEPTANCE. Acceptance of this material will be based on the manufacturer's name appearing on the Department's Approved List for Elastomeric Bridge Bearings and in accordance with the procedural directives of the Materials B ureau.

717-03 Penetrating Type Protective Sealers

NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Section 700 STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS (USC) May 1, 202 4 VOLUME 4 requirements and installation instructions. The membrane system will be approved based on successful field performance evaluations at two (2) approved sites for 2 years. BASIS OF ACCE PTANCE. Waterproofing membranes will be accepted on the basis of the manufacturer and the product appearing on the Approved List and a material certification.

717-03 Penetrating Type Protective Sealers

SCOPE. This specification covers the material requi rements of penetrating type protective sealers for use on Portland cement concrete. GENERAL. The material shall be a one component material consisting of a penetrating sealer which does not alter the color or texture of Portland cement concrete. MATERIA L REQUIREMENTS. Penetrating sealers shall be a one -part liquid, composed of a minimum of 40% silane or siloxane material, with no petroleum distillates, and containing a fugitive dye that will fade uniformly. The Department will test the sealers as deliver ed, in accordance with NY 717 -01 E, to ensure that the following properties are attainable. If the material attains these properties, the Department will place the material on its Approved List. The properties are:

A.Water Absorption. The final average percent water absorbed, for concrete coated with the protective sealer, shall not be greater than 20.0% of the final average percent water absorbed by the uncoated reference concrete.

B.Moisture Vapor Transmission. The final average percent moisture loss, for concrete coated with the protective sealer, shall not be less than 75.0% of its final average percent water absorption.

C.Chloride Ion Penetration. The final average absorbed chloride ion content, for concre te coated with the protective sealer, shall not be greater than 15.0% of the final average absorbed chloride ion content of the uncoated reference concrete.

D.Durability. The protective sealer shall not show any signs of weathering, discoloration, or deterioration after 6 months of exposure to atmospheric conditions.

E.Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC). The protective sealer shall meet the VOC requirements of NYCRR part 205.

F.Fugitive Dye. The protective sealer with fugitive dye shall be readily distinguishable upon the concrete surface for at least 4 hours after application but shall become inconspicuous within 7 days after application. PACKAGING. All materials shall be packaged in strong, substantial containers. Each container shall be plainly marked with the following information: name of the product; name and address of Manufacturer; application instructions; lot/batch number; date of manufacture; quantity of material; and date of expiration or shelf life. BASIS OF APPROVAL. The approval o f the penetrating type protective sealer shall be based upon the submitted information by the manufacturer and tests and evaluation performed by the Materials Bureau. Upon approval by the Materials Bureau, the name of the product will be placed on the Appr oved List BASIS OF ACCEPTANCE. Acceptance of penetrating type protective sealer will be based upon the product appearing on the Department's Approved List, and the Manufacturer's certification that the

717-04 Coating Type Protective Sealers

NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Section 700 STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS (USC) May 1, 202 4 VOLUME 4 material meets the requirements of this section. The shelf life of this material sha ll not exceed one year from the date of manufacture printed on the product label. The Department reserves the right to sample and test the material at its discretion.

717-04 Coating Type Protective Sealers

SCOPE. This specification covers the material requirements of coating type protective sealers for use on portland cement concrete. GENERAL. The coating system shall be either a single coating material or a primer coat followed by a top coat. After application, the sealer shall be opaque and uniform in color. MATERIAL REQUIREMENTS. The Department will test the sealers as delivered, in accordance with Department written instructions, to ensure that the following properties are attainable. If the material attains these properties, the Department wil l place the material on its Approved List. The properties are:

A.Water Absorption. The final average percent water absorbed, for concrete coated with the protective sealer, shall not be greater than 25.0% of the final average percent water absorbed by the uncoated reference concrete.

B.Moisture Vapor Transmission. The final average percent moisture loss, for concrete coated with the protective sealer, shall not be less than 50.0% of its final average percent water absorption.

C.Chloride Ion Penetration. The final average absorbed chloride ion content, for concrete coated with the protective sealer, shall not be greater than 25.0% of the final average absorbed chloride ion content of the uncoated reference concrete.

D.Durability. The prote ctive sealer shall not show any signs of weathering, discoloration, or deterioration after 6 months of exposure to atmospheric conditions. PACKAGING.
