RESULTS FOR SPECIFICATIONS FOR

CONCRETE
Definition: an explicit set of requirements to be satisfied by a
material, product, system, or service.- ACI Concrete Terminology
ACI defines an ACI reference specification as a standardized mandatory-language
document prescribing materials, dimensions, and workmanship, incorporated by
reference in Contract Documents, with information in the Mandatory Requirements
Checklist required to be provided in the Project Specification. A reference specification
provides most of the detailed construction requirements that the Architect/Engineer
(A/E) must convey to the Contractor.
