Fairfield Inn & Suites-170202&+4 Charley's Concrete Tomorrow's Concrete of Choice February 2, 2017 To: Northpoint Construction Project: Fairfield Inn; Coppell, TX REVISED The following mixture(s) are submitted in accordance with ACI 318 Chapter 5, proportioning on the basis of field experience or trial mixtures; Mixture Code Description Intended Use 4703 5SK/3000PSI SOG 5172 5.5SK/3600PS1 W/AIR Site Paving 5632 6SK/4000PSI W/AIR .Approaches Charley's Concrete guarantee of strength per ASTM C94 is provided all field samples are in accordance with ASTM C172 and ASTM C31 and laboratory testing complies with ASTM C39 and ASTM C1077. Charley's Concrete will guarantee the strength performance of the concrete mixtures submitted when placed with ambient temperatures between 40 `F and 100 `F provided plastic properties are not exceeded and concrete is placed within 90 minutes of batch time. This temperature and time range does not supersede project specifications. All concrete should be placed and cured in strict accordance with ACI guidelines for hot and cold weather concreting and may require the addition of ice during hot weather placements (at the customer's request). During cold weather placements all concrete surfaces should be protected for a minimum of 24 hours to allow concrete to attain a compressive strength of 500 psi. ACI 304.2R "Placing Concrete by Pumping Methods" states that the inside diameter of the hose should be a minimum of 3 times the maximum aggregate size in the mixture. It is recommended to minimize or eliminate the free fall of concrete to prevent segregation and to avoid the loss of air. Boom configurations may require adjustments to the concrete mixture. * Due to availability of materials namely natural concrete sand and fly ash, it may be necessary during the course of this project to substitute a source of material. Substitutions will be in complete compliance with project specifications and should not affect mixture characteristics or performance. We appreciate the opportunity to be of service to your company. Please forward any engineer comments and approvals to our office. We also request you add Charley's Concrete to the distribution list for all laboratory test results for review and to monitor performance and compliance with project requirements. If you have any questions or comments regarding this matter feel free to contact our office at your convenience.

It's unique formulation is based on polycarboxylate technology. Sikament 686 meets the requirements for ASTM C-494 Types A and F. Applications Sikament 686 is recommended for use in the production of all high strength concrete products, whenever high plasticity and increased early and ultimate strengths are desired. The superplasticizing action of Sikament 686 provides excellent workability at low water cement ratios. Advantages High Range Water Reducing Applications: When used as a high range wa- ter reducing admixture, water reduction up to 30% can be obtained. The su- perplasticizing action allows for the production of high slump flowing concrete with excellent workability that can be placed with minimum vibration even at a low water/cement ratio. The dispersing action of Sikament 686 maximizes cement hydration efficiency and improves concrete's early and long term com- pressive strengths. How to Use Dosage Mid Range Water Reducing Applications: At a lower dosage, Sikament 686 can be used as a cost effective mid range water reducing admixture or simply as a water reducing admixture for production of conventional slump concrete. When used as a mid range water reducing admixture, water reduction up to 15% can be obtained. This application is ideal for use with lean, harsh con- crete mixes or concrete containing flyash. Sikament 686 will improve workability and finishability. The combined water reducing and superplasticizing action provide the follow- ing benefits: ■ Higher early and ultimate strengths for cost effective high strength con- crete and earlier structural use of concrete. ■ Higher early strengths allow faster demolding and more efficient use of forms to precast producers. ■ Increased slump improves workability and reduces labor costs. ■ Full flow action aids in pumping and reduces need for vibration. ■ Greater concrete density reduces permeability and increases durability. Sikament 686 does not contain calcium chloride or any other intentionally added chlorides and will not initiate or contribute to corrosion on steel rein- forcement present in the concrete. Dosage rates will vary depending on the material used, ambient conditions and the requirements of a specific project. For general concreting applications, Sika recommends a dosage rate between 3-12 fl. oz. /100 lbs. (195-780 ml/100 kg) cementitious materials. If maximum water reduction is required, dosage up to 18 fl.oz./100 lbs. (1170 ml/100 kg) of cementitious materials may be used. In this case, delayed setting times may occur. Dosage rates outside the recommended range may be used where specialized materials such as microsilica are specified, extreme ambient conditions are encountered or unusual project conditions require special con- sideration. In this case please contact your local regional Sika office or Sika technical service department at 1-800-933-7452 for further information. Mixing For best plasticizing results, Sikament 686 should be added directly to freshly mixed concrete in the concrete mixer at the end of the batching cycle. Sikament 686 may also be dispensed as an integral material during the regu- lar admixture batching cycle, or into freshly mixed concrete in a Ready -Mix truck at the concrete plant or job site. To optimize the superplasticizing effect, Sika recommends that the combined materials be mixed for 80-100 revolutions, either in the concrete mixer or in the Ready -Mix truck. Combination with other Admixtures: Sikament 686 is highly effective as a single admixture or in combination with other admixtures in the Sika System. If used in combination with certain Sikament high range water reducers, it may affect the plastic properties of fresh concrete. Please contact your local regional office or technical service department at 1-800-933-7452 for further information.

Product Data Sheet Edition 09.25.2009 Identification no. 147-540 Sika Air Sika° Air Air Entraining Admixture Description Sika Air admixture is an aqueous solution of organic materials. Sika Air meets the requirements of ASTM C-260 for air entraining admixtures. Applications Sika Air is recommended for use whenever air entrained concrete is desired. Ready -mix, precast and block producers can achieve predictable and uniform entrained air contents in concrete, even where harsh lean mixes are used or fly -ash is added to the concrete. Advantages Durability: ■ Air entrainment is recognized as the most effective prevention against con- crete scaling in exposed environments. Air entrained concrete delivers par- ticular benefits in the form of increased concrete durability. This is important in colder climates where frost and freeze -thaw cycles can cause scaling and damage to the concrete surface. ■ Air entraining agents help to prevent scaling by creating microscopic air voids that water trapped in the concrete can expand into when the concrete freezes, thus preventing cracks caused by the natural expansion. Entrained air voids in the concrete will also increase durability in harsh environments where concrete is exposed to deicing salts, marine salts and sulfates. Workability and Placeability: ■ Workability and placeability are also improved by the lubricating action of the microscopic bubbles in the concrete. Concrete will flow better, and bleeding and shrinkage will be reduced because less water is needed to obtain the desired workability. How to Use Dosage Dosage rates for Sika Air will typically fall between 0.5 and 3 fl. oz. per 100 lbs. (32 - 195 ml/100 kg) of cementitious to entrain between 4 and 6 percent air. Higher air contents may be obtained by increasing the dosage rate. Dosage rates will vary depending on the air content required for a particular project. Typically air contents will be specified in the range of 4 to 8 percent by volume. Other factors that may affect the amount of air entrained into the concrete including total cementitious content, type of pozzolanic materials, sand grada- tion, salt/clay in aggregates, temperature and water content. The use of fly ash, particularly high LOI fly ash, can result in a higher dosage of air entrain- ment. Sika recommends that trial mixes be performed whenever material or any other changes are made that may affect the amount of entrained air. In mixes requiring a lower or higher amount dosage rate, please contact your local regional Sika office or Sika technical service department at 1-800-933- 7452 for further information.

MSDS 0008 SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION Page 2 of 7 Emergency Overview: Short term exposure to wet concrete is not likely to cause an immediate hazard. However, exposure of sufficient duration to wet concrete can cause serious, potentially irreversible tissue (skin or eye) damage in the form of chemical (caustic) burns. The same type of tissue damage can occur if wet or moist areas of the body are exposed for sufficient duration to the dry ingredients in unhardened concrete. Routes of Exposure: Eve Contact Exposure to airborne dust during the handling or mixing of the dry ingredients in Ready -Mix concrete may cause immediate or delayed irritation or inflammation. Eye contact by splashes of wet concrete may cause effects ranging from moderate eye irritation to chemical burns and blindness. Such exposures require immediate first aid (see Section 4) and medical attention to prevent significant damage to the eye. Skin Contact Discomfort or pain cannot be relied upon to alert a person to a hazardous skin exposure. Consequently, the only effective means of avoiding skin injury or illness involves minimizing skin contact, particularly contact with wet concrete. Exposed persons may not feel discomfort until hours after the exposure has ended and significant injury has occurred. Exposure during the handling or mixing of the dry ingredients in Ready -Mix concrete may cause drying of the skin with consequent mild irritation or more significant effects attributable to aggravation of other conditions. Exposure to wet concrete may cause more severe skin effects including thickening, cracking or fissuring of the skin. Prolonged exposure can cause severe skin damage in the form of (caustic) chemical burns. Some individuals may exhibit an allergic response upon exposure to wet concrete. The response may appear in a variety of forms ranging from a mild rash to severe skin ulcers. Persons already sensitized may react to their first contact with the product. Other persons may first experience this effect after years of contact with wet unhardened concrete products. Ingestion Although inadvertent ingestion of small quantities of wet concrete or its dry ingredients are not known to be harmful, accidental ingestion of larger quantities can be harmful and requires immediate medical attention. Inhalation The ingredients in Ready -Mix concrete contain crystalline silica. Exposure to these ingredients in excess of the applicable TLV or PEL (see Section 2) may cause or aggravate other lung conditions. Exposure to the dry ingredients in Ready -Mix concrete may cause irritation to the moist mucous membranes of the nose, throat, and upper respiratory system Medical Conditions which May be Aggravated by Inhalation or Dermal Exposure: Pre-existing upper respiratory and lung diseases by exposure to the dry ingredients. Persons with unusual (hyper) sensitivity to chemicals, dusts, and metallic compounds may experience adverse reactions to wet concrete. Carcinogenic Potential: Ready -Mix concrete is not listed as a carcinogen by NTP, OSHA, or IARC. It may, however, contain trace amounts of substances listed as carcinogens by these organizations including but not limited to: crystalline silica, hexavalent chromium, lead compounds, mercury compounds, nickel compounds, and possibly other chemicals which may result in exposures which require the following warming pursuant to California Proposition 65: WARNING: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

Scrape up wet material and place in an appropriate container. Allow the wet concrete to "harden" before disposal. Do not attempt to wash wet concrete down sewers or storm drains. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment as described in Section 8. Dispose of waste material according to local, state and federal regulations. SECTION 7 - HANDLING & STORAGE Normal temperatures and pressures do not affect the material. Promptly remove dusty clothing or clothing which is wet with concrete and launder before reuse. Wash thoroughly after exposure to dust or wet concrete mixtures. SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Eve Protection: When engaged in activities where wet concrete or its dry ingredients could contact the eye, wear safety glasses with side shields or goggles. In extremely dusty environments and unpredictable environments, wear unvented or indirectly vented goggles to avoid eye irritation or injury. Contact lenses should not be worn when working with wet concrete or its dry ingredients. MSDS 0008 SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROL/PERSONAL PROTECTION (continued) Page 4 of 7 Skin Protection: Prevention is essential to avoiding potentially severe skin injury. Avoid contact with unhardened (wet) concrete products or its dry ingredients. If contact occurs, promptly wash affected area with soap and water. Where prolonged exposure to unhardened concrete products might occur, wear impervious clothing and gloves to eliminate skin contact. Where required, wear boots that are impervious to water to eliminate foot and ankle exposure. Do not rely on barrier creams; barrier creams should not be used in place of gloves. Periodically wash areas contacted by wet cement or its dry ingredients with a pH neutral soap and water. Wash again at the end of the work. If irritation occurs, immediately wash the affected area and seek treatment. If clothing becomes saturated with wet concrete, it should be removed and replaced with clean dry clothing. Respiratory Protection: Avoid actions that cause dust exposure to occur. Use local or general ventilation to control exposures below applicable exposure limits. NIOSH or MSHA approved particulate filter respirators should be used in the context of respiratory protection program meeting the requirements of the OSHA respiratory protection standard [29 CFR 1910.134] to control exposures when ventilation or other controls are inadequate or discomfort or irritation is experienced. Respirator and/or filter cartridge selection should be based on American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Standards Z88.2 Practices for Respiratory Protection. Ventilation: Use local exhaust or general dilution ventilation to control exposure within applicable limits. SECTION 9 - PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Appearance ...........................

A key to using the product safely requires the user to recognize that portland cement chemically reacts with water, and that some of the intermediate products of this reaction (that is, those present while a concrete product is "setting") pose a far more severe hazard than does portland cement itself. While the information provided in this material safety data sheet is believed to provide a useful summary of the hazards of unhardened (wet) Ready -Mix concrete as it is commonly used, the sheet cannot anticipate and provide all of the information that might be needed in every situation. Inexperienced product users should obtain proper training before using this product. In particular, the data furnished in this sheet does not address hazards that may be posed by materials other than natural sands and gravels mixed with portland cement and flyash to produce Ready -Mix concrete products. Users should review other relevant material safety data sheets before working with this portland cement concrete.
