ACI 330.1M-14 PDF Download

ACI 330.1M-14 is a standard that provides guidelines for the construction of unreinforced concrete parking lots and site paving. The standard covers various aspects including submittals, testing and inspection, concrete materials, jointing and sealant material, forms, subgrade preparation, subbase, placing, texturing, curing, jointing, tolerances, and opening to traffic. It is important to note that this standard does not address the requirements for pervious concrete.

The standard focuses on ensuring that the construction of unreinforced concrete parking lots meets the minimum quality and durability standards. It provides specifications for the materials used, including concrete mix design and reinforcement at joints. It also outlines the necessary preparation steps such as subgrade preparation and subbase installation. The standard also includes instructions for placing, texturing, and curing the concrete to achieve the desired surface finish and strength.

In addition, ACI 330.1M-14 specifies the requirements for jointing and sealant materials to accommodate the natural expansion and contraction of the concrete. It also sets tolerances for the finished pavement, ensuring that it meets the specified dimensions and smoothness. Finally, the standard provides guidelines for testing and inspection procedures to verify compliance with the specifications.
