The anchor bolts should be
cast into the structure versus drilled and grouted into place after concrete
placement. This will alleviate drilling
into the epoxy coated reinforcing steel.
Hold anchor bolts in place with the use of a template. When the anchors are cast into the concrete,
the threads should be protected from getting filled with concrete paste.
Failure to release falsework prior to installing railings could cause the
railings to deform as the structure experiences the additional dead load
deflections associated with the falsework release.
Any preformed PVC fillers or
paint coatings used should be listed on the Qualified
Product Lists (QPL) for Items 711.28
and 708.
If field welding is required
on galvanized members, repairs should be made similar to C&MS Item 516.03. Cold Galv or Spray Galv should not be used.
