Southern Star Concrete, Inc. has no knowledge or authority regarding where this mix is to be placed; therefore, it is the responsibility of the project architect, engineer, and /or contractor to ensure that the above designed mix parameters of compressive strength, water -to- cementitious ratio (W /C +P), cement content, and air content are appropriate for the anticipated environmental conditions (ie. ACI -318 sections 4.1 -4.3, and local Building Codes). Customer assumes total responsibility for concrete placement, finishing, initial and final curing, placement of joints at proper spacing, and any aesthetic concerns /issues (such as cracks, discoloration, etc.) that may arise in the plastic and hardened state. Customer assumes responsibility for any performances issues (strength, aesthetic, durability, air entrainment etc.) as a result of water added to concrete at the project site that exceeds the w /c +p. Designed mix cementitious content, is stated as a minimum, and Southern Star Concrete, Inc. reserves the right to increase cementitious content. Chemical admixtures are added in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. Southern Star Concrete, Inc. reserves the right to adjust these dosages to meet the changes in jobsite demands. When ambient temperatures are consistently above 85 degrees, a Type A Water Reducer may be replaced with a Type D Water Reducer. Southern Star Concrete, Inc. may use admixtures or procedures not listed above to control the mixture during Hot or Cold weather, for pumping, long hauls, or other special applications, unless restricted in writing by the client. Concrete requiring high /early strengths (up to 48 hours) during cool or cold weather may require the use of hot water and /or non - chloride accelerator to achieve desired results. The compressive strength cylinders MUST be protected and cured per ASTMC -31 which states, "Immediately after molding and finishing, the specimens shall be stored for a period up to 48 hours in a temperature range of 60 and 80 degrees F and in an environment preventing moisture loss from these specimens."

Expires 02- 24.2014 BASF� � �� 1MR. t � 8 The Chemical Company Description MB -AE 90 air - entraining MB-AE TM �O admixture is for use in concrete mixtures. It meets the Xr- Entraining Admixture requirements of ASTM C 260, AASHTO M 154 and CRD -C 13. Features Applications Ready -to -use in the proper concentration for rapid, accurate dispensing Recommended for use in: Benefits Concrete exposed to IN Improved resistance to damage from cyclic freezing and thawing cyclic freezing and 0 Improved resistance to scaling from deicing salts thawing M Improved plasticity and workability X Production of high - quality N Reduced permeability — increased watertightness normal or lightweight concrete (heavyweight X Reduced segregation and bleeding concrete normally does not Performance Characteristics contain entrained air) Concrete durability research has established that the best protection for concrete from the adverse effects of freezing and thawing cycles and deicing salts results from: proper air content in the hardened concrete, a suitable air -void system in terms of bubble size and spacing, and adequate concrete strength, assuming the use of sound aggregates and proper mixing, transporting, placing, consolidation, finishing and curing techniques. MB -AE 90 admixture can be used to obtain adequate freeze -thaw durability in a properly proportioned concrete mixture, if standard industry practices are followed. Air Content Determination: The total air content of normal weight concrete should be measured in strict accordance with ASTM C 231, "Standard Test Method for Air Content of Freshly Mixed Concrete by the Pressure Method" or ASTM C 173/C 173M, "Standard Test Method for Air Content of Freshly Mixed Concrete by the Volumetric Method." The air content of lightweight concrete should only be determined using the Volumetric Method. The air content should be verified by calculating the gravimetric air content in accordance with ASTM C 138/C 138M, "Standard Test Method for Density (Unit Weight), Yield, and Air Content (Gravimetric) of Concrete." If the total air content, as measured by the Pressure Method or Volumetric Method and as verified by the Gravimetric Method, deviates by more than 1 -112 %, the cause should be determined and corrected through equipment calibration or by whatever process is deemed necessary. Guidelines for Use Dosage: There is no standard dosage for MB -AE 90 admixture. The exact quantity of air - entraining admixture needed for a given air content of concrete varies because of differences in concrete - making materials and ambient conditions. Typical factors that might influence the amount of air entrained include: temperature, cementitious materials, sand gradation, sand - aggregate ratio, mixture proportions, slump, means of conveying and placement, consolidation and finishing technique. Master Builders �NU.e�et Product Data: MB -AE T"" JO The amount of MB -AE 90 admixture used will depend upon the amount of entrained air required under actual job conditions. In a trial mixture, use 1/4 to 4 fl oz/cwt (16 -260 mL/100 kg) of cementitious material. Measure the air content of the trial mixture, and, if needed, either increase or decrease the quantity of MB -AE 90 admixture to obtain the desired air content. In mixtures containing water - reducing or set - control admixtures, the amount of MB -AE 90 admixture needed may be somewhat less than the amount required in plain concrete. Due to possible changes in the factors that can affect the dosage of MB -AE 90 admixture, frequent air content checks should be made during the course of the work. Adjustments to the dosage should be based on the amount of entrained air required in the mixture at the point of placement. If an unusually high or low dosage of MB -AE 90 admixture is required to obtain the desired air content, consult your BASF Construction Chemicals representative. In such cases, it may be necessary to determine that, in addition to a proper air content in the fresh concrete, a suitable air -void system is achieved in the hardened concrete. Dispensing and Mixing. Add MB -AE 90 admixture to the concrete mixture using a dispenser designed for air - entraining admixtures, or add manually using a suitable measuring device that ensures accuracy within plus or minus 3% of the required amount. For optimum, consistent performance, the air - entraining admixture should be dispensed on damp, fine aggregate. If the concrete mixture contains fine lightweight aggregate, field evaluations should be conducted to determine the best method to dispense the air - entraining admixture. Precaution In a 2005 publication from the Portland Cement Association (PCA R &D Serial No. 2789), it was reported that problematic air -void clustering that can potentially lead to above normal decreases in strength was found to coincide with late additions of water to air - entrained concretes. Late additions of water include the conventional practice of holding back water during batching for addition at the jobsite. Therefore, caution should be exercised with delayed additions of water to air - entrained concrete. Furthermore, an air content check should be performed after any post - batching addition to an air - entrained concrete mixture. Product Notes Corrosivity — Non - Chloride, Non - Corrosive: MB-AE 90 admixture will neither initiate nor promote corrosion of reinforcing and prestressing steel embedded in concrete, or of galvanized floor and roof systems. No calcium chloride or other chloride -based ingredients are used in the manufacture of this admixture. Compatibility: MB -AE 90 admixture may be used in combination with any BASF Construction Chemicals admixture, unless stated otherwise on the data sheet for the other product.

It develops higher early (24 -hour) and ultimate strengths than plain (SCC) concrete when used within the recommended dosage range, under normal, comparable curing conditions. When Pozzolith 300 R admixture is used in heat -cured concrete, the length of the Preheating period should be increased until initial set of the concrete is achieved. The actual heat - curing period is then reduced accordingly to maintain existing production cycles without sacrificing early or ultimate strengths. Rate of Hardening: The temperature of the concrete mixture and the ambient temperature (forms, earth, reinforcement, air, etc.) affect the hardening rate of concrete. At higher temperatures, concrete hardens more rapidly which may cause problems with placing and finishing. Pozzolith 300 R admixture retards the set of concrete. Within the normal dosage range, it will generally extend the working and setting times of concrete containing normal Portland cement approximately 1 hour to 5 hours compared to that of a plain concrete mixture, depending on job materials and temperatures. Trial mixtures should be made with job materials approximating job conditions to determine the dosage required. Master Builders Product Data: PQZZOLI'TH® 300 R Guidelines for Use Dosage: Pozzolith 300 R admixture is recommended for use at a dosage of 4 t 1 fl oz/cwt (260 t 65 mUl00 kg) of cementitious materials for most concrete mixtures using typical concrete ingredients.
