(1) If less than 20 yd3/ day, the engineer may waive air testing if inspection is not available and producer has exhibited consistency in prior placements

(2) On large structural placements >350 yd3, the DME may adjust air and slump testing to 1/50 yd3 based on consistent results in the first 100 yd3 placed

(3)  Sampling and testing rate if no other concrete supplied. Use structural or paving test results to cover non structural concrete items.

(4) See 204 Appendix M for overlays >300 yd2.
