Test Cylinders Sample Clauses

Test Cylinders. (a) Casting and Curing. All test cylinders are the responsibility of the Contractor. With the exception of 28-day cylinders, cure all cylinders under the same conditions (environment) as the concrete they represent. Initially store then cure 28-day cylinders as per KT-22. When using SCC, do not rod or vibrate when making test cylinders for design or production, and use care when moving newly molded cylinders. For the testing purposes described below, the “total volume of concrete placed” is defined as each 40 cubic yards of concrete or fraction thereof placed in each line, within each curing enclosure, during a continuous working period. Make one group of three or more cylinders for each third of the total volume of concrete to be placed. Note the limits of the concrete in the beds represented by each of the groups of cylinders. Mark and identify all cylinders groups as 1, 2 and 3 with marked group 1 representing the first third of the total volume of concrete placed, marked group 2 representing the second third of the total concrete placed, and marked group 3 representing the final third of the total concrete placed. To facilitate the testing of multiple sets of cylinders for stripping and shipping, each group may contain more than 3 cylinders. Mark cylinders within a group as xA, xB, xC, xD, xE where “x” is the group number (always 1, 2, or 3) and A through E are the unique cylinder identifying marks within the group. A minimum of two cylinders (i.e. xA & xE) are required for each group and are to be used for stripping and 28-day strength, respectively. At least one additional cylinder (i.e. xC) is required for each group if early shipping is desired. Finally, optional additional cylinders (i.e xB & xD) for each group will allow more than one set of test cylinders for stripping and shipping. Identify which cylinders will be used for 28-day testing (i.e. 1E, 2E, 3E) then store and cure these three cylinders as per KT-22. Follow the procedure of making sets of cylinders from early (group 1), middle (group 2) and late (group 3) placement, during normal production operations. When operations are interrupted or changed (i.e. equipment break-down, very small placements, etc.), adjust the cylinder making schedule to match the production, and provide adequate cylinders for later shipping strength testing. Coordinate this revised schedule with the Engineer on the production site.

  • Preservative-treated Wood Containing Arsenic Contractor may not purchase preservative-treated wood products containing arsenic in the performance of this Agreement unless an exemption from the requirements of Chapter 13 of the San Francisco Environment Code is obtained from the Department of the Environment under Section 1304 of the Code. The term “preservative-treated wood containing arsenic” shall mean wood treated with a preservative that contains arsenic, elemental arsenic, or an arsenic copper combination, including, but not limited to, chromated copper arsenate preservative, ammoniacal copper zinc arsenate preservative, or ammoniacal copper arsenate preservative. Contractor may purchase preservative-treated wood products on the list of environmentally preferable alternatives prepared and adopted by the Department of the Environment.

  • Household Component The Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) provides nationally representative estimates of health care use, expenditures, sources of payment, and health insurance coverage for the U.S. civilian non-institutionalized population. The MEPS Household Component (HC) also provides estimates of respondents’ health status, demographic and socio-economic characteristics, employment, access to care, and satisfaction with health care. Estimates can be produced for individuals, families, and selected population subgroups. The panel design of the survey, which includes 5 Rounds of interviews covering 2 full calendar years, provides data for examining person level changes in selected variables such as expenditures, health insurance coverage, and health status. Using computer assisted personal interviewing (CAPI) technology, information about each household member is collected, and the survey builds on this information from interview to interview. All data for a sampled household are reported by a single household respondent. The MEPS-HC was initiated in 1996. Each year a new panel of sample households is selected. Because the data collected are comparable to those from earlier medical expenditure surveys conducted in 1977 and 1987, it is possible to analyze long-term trends. Each annual MEPS-HC sample size is about 15,000 households. Data can be analyzed at either the person or event level. Data must be weighted to produce national estimates. The set of households selected for each panel of the MEPS HC is a subsample of households participating in the previous year’s National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) conducted by the National Center for Health Statistics. The NHIS sampling frame provides a nationally representative sample of the U.S. civilian non-institutionalized population and reflects an oversample of blacks and Hispanics. In 2006, the NHIS implemented a new sample design, which included Asian persons in addition to households with black and Hispanic persons in the oversampling of minority populations. MEPS further oversamples additional policy relevant sub- groups such as low income households. The linkage of the MEPS to the previous year’s NHIS provides additional data for longitudinal analytic purposes.
