The guarantee includes defective work, breakage, deformation, fading and loosening of tiles. 2.0 PRODUCTS 2.01 MAUFACTURERS A. Armor-Tile by Engineered Plastics, Inc. B. ADA Solutions by Detectable Warning Systems MATERIALS A. Composition: CIP Tiles shall be manufactured using a matte finish exterior grade homogeneous (uniform color throughout thickness of product) glass and carbon reinforced polyester based Sheet Molding Compound (SMC) composite material. Truncated domes must contain fiberglass reinforcement within the truncated dome for superior structural integrity and impact resistance. A matte finish will be required on the Tactile Warning Surface for superior slip resistance performance superior to that offered by a gloss finish. Use of tactile Warning Surface Products employing coatings or featuring layers of material with different composition, performance, or color properties is expressly prohibited under this Section. B. Color: Color shall be homogeneous throughout CIP Tile. 1. Brick Red (R) per Federal Standard 595B Table IV, Color No C. Domes: Square grid pattern of raised truncated domes of 0.2 nominal height, base diameter of 0.9 and top diameter of The Federal Code of Regulations permits a truncated dome spacing range of For superior wheelchair, walked and shopping cart mobility, the preferred truncated dome spacing shall have a center-to-center (horizontally and vertically) spacing of 2.35, measured between the most adjacent domes on square grid ADDENDUM #1

9 D. Configuration: CIP Tile sizes shall be as indicated on the Contract Drawings. For superior load bearing capacity, CIP Tile shall feature internal embedment ribs at 3 (nominal) on center maximum. The field area shall consist of a non-slip textured surface with a minimum static coefficient of friction of 0.80, wet and dry. At a minimum, CIP Tile thickness shall measure 0.20 (nominal). 1. The field area shall consist of a non-slip textured surface with a minimum static coefficient of friction of 0.80, wet and dry. E. Truncated Dome Surface of Composite CIP Tile shall be protected with factory installed plastic sheeting for cleanliness during the installation process. Basic Installation Guidelines shall be printed on the plastic sheeting in both English and Spanish for customer convenience. F. Dimensions: Cast-in-Place Tactile Warning Surface Tiles shall be held within the following dimensions and tolerances. 1. Length and Width: 1.67 Dome Spacing [36 x60 ]. 3.0 EXECUTION 3.01 PREPARATION A. During all concrete pouring and CIP Tile Installation procedures, ensure adequate safety guidelines are in place and that they are in accordance with the applicable industry and government standards. B. The physical characteristics of the concrete shall be consistent with the Contract Specifications while maintaining a slump range of 4-7 to permit solid placement of the CIP Tile. An overly wet mix will cause the CIP Tile to float. Under these conditions suitable weights such as 2 concrete blocks or sandbags (25 pounds) shall be placed on each CIP Tile. C. The concrete shall be poured and finished, true and smooth to the required dimensions and slope prior to CIP Tile placement INSTALLATION A. Contractor will not be allowed to install Tactile Warning Surface Tiles until all submittals have been reviewed and approved by the Engineer. B. CIP Tile shall be installed per manufacturer s instructions. C. To the maximum extent possible, the CIP Tiles shall be oriented such that the rows of in-line truncated domes are parallel with the direction of the ramp. When multiple CIP Tiles regardless of size are used, the truncated domes shall be aligned between the tactile warning surface Tiles and throughout the entire tactile warning surface installation. D. In accordance with the Proposed Accessibility Guidelines for Pedestrian Facilities in the Public Rights of Way (7/23/11, Access Board): Sections ), Tactile Warning Surface Tile shall be located relative to the curb line as shown within Sections of the Guidelines. E. CIP Tiles shall be tamped or vibrated into the fresh concrete to ensure that there are no voids or air pockets, and the field level of the CIP Tile is flush to the adjacent concrete surface or as the Drawings indicate to permit proper water drainage and eliminate tripping hazards between adjacent finishes, F. Cutting and Setting of CIP Tiles shall be cut into size and configuration indicated on the Drawings using a 60 tooth carbide blade on a table saw or equivalent cutting device. Minimize any cantilever effect (to the maximum extent practicable) when cutting between successive embedment ribs as concrete will tend to flow up and over the CIP Tiles. The top of the body of the CIP Tiles shall be fully seated and flush with the adjacent concrete substrate. For specific ADDENDUM #1

10 instructions for cutting and setting refer to Tactile Warning Surface manufacturer s written instructions CLEANING AND PROTECTING A. Protect CIP Tiles against damage during construction period to comply with CIP Tile manufacturer s specification. B. During and after the CIP Tiles installation and the concrete curing stage, it is imperative that there are no walking, leaning or external forces placed on the CIP Tiles to rock the CIP Tile, causing a void between the underside of the CIP Tile and the concrete. C. Remove Protective Plastic Sheeting from CIP Tile within 24 hours of installation of the CIP Tile. Particularly under hot weather conditions (80 degrees or higher), plastic sheeting will adhere strongly (resulting in difficult removal of same) to Tactile Warning Surface Tile when not removed quickly. D. If requested by the Project Manager, clean CIP Tiles not more than four (4) days prior to date scheduled for inspection intended to establish date of substantial completion in each area of project. Clean CIP Tile by method specified by Tactile Warning Surface Products manufacturer. End ADDENDUM #1
