Submitted Documents NRMCA Plant Certification Material Certifications Concrete Strength Data Should the Purchaser choose not to purchase temperature control measures, the Purchaser shall assume all liability for rejected concrete due to non-compliant concrete temperatures. All samples and testing of samples for acceptance shall be conducted at the point of discharge from the concrete delivery truck. Bluedot warrants that the concrete as delivered to this project will meet or exceed the design strength specified on the delivery ticket when evaluated in accordance with ACI-318, and 301, and ASTM C-94 latest revisions. The measured slump must not exceed the maximum slump, and the concrete must be tested in strict accordance with provisions of ASTM standards C-172, C-143,C-31,C-39,C-617,C-231 C-173, C-138, C-1019, C-78, C-567, C-1064, latest revisions. Responsibility for concrete when designs are supplied by others will be the sole responsibility of those parties supplying the mix design. Bluedot batching facilities are NRMCA certified, Concrete will be delivered as per the requirements of ASTM C-94. Per ACI 318 Section 5.3.1.2 and 301 Section 3.9.1.1, states that support data from one mix may be submitted for another mix for as long as the mixes have similar properties and are within 1000 psi in strength. Per ACI 301-05 Section 1.5.2: Bluedot requests to be added to the concrete strength specimen’s distribution list. In addition, Bluedot would like to request an exception for onsite water addition. The batch tickets will be stamped with the amount of water withheld during batching, for addition at jobsite. This procedure will insure that maximum water cement ratio is not exceeded. The change will allow for water adjustment to provide a more consistent product during placement. If there are any questions or concerns, please feel free to call. Respectfully,

ZYLA 620 Water-reducing admixture ®
ASTM C494 Type A and D Product Description ZYLA® 620 water-reducing admixture is a proprietary formulation incorporating polycarboxylate and highly purified specialty organic chemicals. ZYLA 620 promotes more complete hydration of Portland cement and has minimal effect on concrete air entrainment. The ZYLA product line of water reducers is specially formulated to have a synergistic effect with polycarboxylate-based mid-range and high-range water reducers that improve flat-work finishability. This product contains no intentionally added chloride and as such is essentially chloride free. It is manufactured under rigid controls that provide uniform, predictable performance. ZYLA 620 is supplied as a light brown, low viscosity liquid, and is ready-to-use as received. One gallon weighs approximately 9.1 lbs (1.09 kg/L). ZYLA 620 meets the
Product Advantages • Minimal impact on concrete air content • Better control of water reduction and setting times as compared to traditional lignin-based water reducers • Synergistic performance of polycarboxylate-based mid-range and high-range water reducers, which include water reduction, concrete strength and air control • In the hardened state, improves the compressive and flexural strengths at all ages of concrete versus traditional lignin-based water reducers
requirements of Specification for Chemical Admixtures for Concrete, ASTM Designation C494 as a Type A and D admixture. Please consult your Grace representative for guidance on the ZYLA product line.
Uses ZYLA 620 is used to produce concrete mixes with lower water content (typically 3% to 10% reduction), greater plasticity and higher compressive strengths. ZYLA 620 is suitable for normal weight and light weight concrete in ready-mix, precast and prestressed applications.
Finishability The unique chemistry of ZYLA 620 positively impacts the finishability of concrete by providing a creamier and more homogenous texture, with more uniform and increased bleed rate relative to traditional lignin-based water reducers, although less than ZYLA 610. The influence of ZYLA 620 on the finishability of lean mixes has been particularly noticeable. Floating and troweling, by machine or hand, imparts a smooth, close tolerance surface.
Addition Rates The addition rate range of 3 to 5 fl oz/100 lbs (195 to 325 mL/100 kg) of cement or cementitious is typical for most applications. However addition rates of 2 to 10 fl oz/100 lbs (130 to 652 mL/100 kg) of cement or cementitious may be used if local testing shows acceptable performance. Pretesting is required to determine the appropriate addition rate for desired performance. The optimum addition rate depends on the other concrete mixture components, job conditions, and desired performance characteristics.
Compatibility with Other Admixtures and Batch Sequencing ZYLA 620 is compatible with most Grace admixtures as long as they are added separately to the concrete mix, usually through the water holding tank discharge line. However, ZYLA 620 is not recommended for use in concrete containing naphthalene-based admixtures including Daracem® 19 and Daracem 100, and melamine-based admixtures including Daracem ML 330. In general, it is recommended that ZYLA 620 be added to the concrete mix near the end of the batch sequence for optimum performance. Different sequencing may be used if local testing shows better performance. Please see Grace Technical Bulletin TB-0110, Admixture Dispenser Discharge Line Location and Sequencing for Concrete Batching Operations for further recommendations. ZYLA 620 should not come in contact with any other admixture before or during the batching process, even if diluted in mix water. Pretesting of the concrete mix should be performed before use, and as conditions and materials change in order to assure compatibility, and to optimize dosage rates, addition times in the batch sequencing and concrete performance. For concrete that requires air entrainment, the use of an ASTM C260 airentraining agent (such as Daravair® or Darex® product lines) is recommended to provide suitable air void parameters for freeze-thaw resistance. Please consult your Grace representative for guidance.
Packaging & Handling ZYLA 620 is available in bulk, delivered by metered tank trucks, in 275 gal (1,040 L) totes, and in 55 gal (210 L) drums. It will freeze at about 28°F (-2°C), but will be completely uniform after thawing and thorough agitation.

DAREX II AEA Air-entraining admixture ®
ASTM C260 Product Description Darex® II AEA is an air-entraining admixture which generates a highly stable air void system for increased protection against damage from freezing and thawing, severe weathering, or de-icer chemicals. Darex II AEA is a complex mixture of organic acid salts in an aqueous solution specifically formulated for use as an air-entraining admixture for concrete and is manufactured under rigid control which provides uniform, predictable performance. It is supplied readyto-use and does not require pre-mixing with water. Darex II AEA is a dark brown liquid. One gallon weighs 8.7 lbs (1.04 kg/L). Darex II AEA complies to ASTM C260 Standard Specifications for Air-Entraining Admixtures for Concrete.
Uses Darex II AEA is used in ready-mix, block, and concrete products plants to improve air entrainment stability. It is particularly effective in maintaining air content during longer haul times. Darex II AEA performs well in
Product Advantages • Air stability makes it particularly useful for longer transit times • Produces excellent air void systems in concretes that are traditionally difficult to air entrain
conventional concrete and is effective in plasticizing mixes and with slag, lightweight, or manufactured aggregates which tend to produce harsh concrete. Darex II AEA entrains air effectively with microsilica concrete and with fly ash concrete.
Performance By agitation of concrete mixers, Darex II AEA disperses and generates millions of discrete semi-microscopic bubbles throughout the concrete composite. Once thoroughly mixed, the concrete contains a stable network of bubbles which act much like ball bearings increasing mobility, or plasticity, of the concrete. This aids workability to the mix and permits a reduction of water with no loss of slump. Placeability is improved. Bleeding, segregation and green shrinkage are minimized. Through the purposeful entrainment of air, Darex II AEA markedly increases the durability of concrete to all exposures.
Addition Rates There is no standard addition rate for Darex II AEA. The amount to be used will depend upon the amount of air required under job conditions, usually in the range of 4 to 7%. Typical factors which might influence the amount of air entrained are temperature, cement, sand gradation, and use of extra fine materials such as fly ash. Typical Darex II AEA addition rates generally range from 1⁄2 to 5 fl oz/100 lbs (30 to 320 mL/100 kg) of cement. The air-entraining efficiency of Darex II AEA becomes even greater when used with waterreducing and set-retarding agents. This may allow a reduction of up to 2⁄3 in the amount of Darex II AEA required for the specified air content. Mix Adjustment Entrained air results in increased yields with a consequent decrease in the cement content of the placed concrete. This condition calls for a mix adjustment, usually accomplished by reducing the fine aggregate content. This is in addition to the reduction in water content brought about by the increase in plasticity.
Compatibility with Other Admixtures and Batch Sequencing Darex II AEA is compatible with most Grace admixtures as long as they are added separately to the concrete mix. In general, it is recommended that Darex II AEA be added to the concrete mix near the beginning of the batch sequence for optimum performance, preferably by “dribbling” on the sand. Different sequencing may be used if local testing shows better performance. Please see Grace Technical Bulletin TB-0110, Admixture Dispenser Discharge Line Location and Sequencing for Concrete Batching Operations for further recommendations. Darex II AEA should not be added directly to heated water.
Pretesting of the concrete mix should be performed before use, and as conditions and materials change in order to assure compatibility, and to optimize dosage rates, addition times in the batch sequencing and concrete performance. Please consult your Grace representative for guidance.
Packaging & Handling Darex II AEA is available in bulk, delivered by metered tank trucks, totes and drums. Darex II AEA will freeze at about 30°F (-1°C), but its air-entraining properties are completely restored by thawing and thorough mechanical agitation.
Dispensing Equipment A complete line of accurate dispensing equipment is available. These dispensers can be located to discharge into the water line, the mixer, or on the sand.
Specifications Concrete shall be air entrained concrete, containing 4 to 7% entrained air. The air contents in the concrete shall be determined by the pressure method (ASTM Designation C231), gravimetric method (ASTM Designation C138) or volume metric method (ASTM Designation C173). The air-entraining admixture shall be Darex II AEA as manufactured by Grace Construction Products, or equal. The air-entraining admixture shall be added at the concrete mixer or batching plant at approximately 1⁄2 to 5 fl oz/100 lbs (30 to 320 mL/100 kg) of cement, or in such quantities as to give the specified air contents.

ADVA 140M High-range water-reducing admixture ®
ASTM C494 Type A and F, and ASTM C1017 Type I Product Description ADVA® 140M is a high-range water-reducing admixture based on polycarboxylate technology specifically formulated to meet the needs of the concrete industry. ADVA 140M meets the requirements of ASTM C494 as a Type A and F, and ASTM C1017 Type I. One gallon weighs approximately 8.8 lbs (1.1 kg/L) and does not contain intentionally added chloride. It is a low viscosity liquid that has been formulated by the manufacturer for use as received.
Uses ADVA 140M has been used successfully in a wide variety of concrete applications for high-slump, low water-to-cementitious ratio concrete requiring a high-range water reducer to flatwork in residential applications requiring a mid-range water reducer. ADVA 140M produces concrete with excellent workability characteristics for high slump and moderate slump concrete.
Product Advantages • Can be used as a high-range water reducer as well as a mid-range water reducer providing production flexibility • Consistent air entrainment • Consistent performance across cement chemistries • Provides a superior combination of long slump life with near neutral set time • Concrete finishes easily without stickiness, tearing or spotty set characteristics
ADVA 140M is ideal for use in any concrete where it is desired to keep the water/cementitious ratio to a minimum and still achieve the high strength and degree of workability necessary to provide easy placement and consolidation. ADVA 140M will also fluidize concrete making it ideal for tremie concreting or other applications where high slumps are desired.
Addition Rates Addition rates of ADVA 140M can vary with type of materials and application. The addition rate can range between 2 oz/cwt and 20 oz/cwt (130 mL/100 kg and 1300 mL/100 kg) of cement. Typical addition rates are: • High-range water reducer—9 to 16 oz/cwt (590 to 1040 mL/100 kg) • Mid-range water reducer—5 to 9 oz/cwt (325 to 590 mL/100 kg)
Optimal addition rates will depend on other concrete mixture components, job conditions, and desired performance characteristics. At a given water/cementitious ratio, the slump required for placement can be controlled by varying the addition rate. Should job site conditions require using more than recommended addition rates, please consult your Grace representative.
Compatibility with Other Admixtures and Batch Sequencing ADVA 140M is compatible with most Grace admixtures as long as they are added separately to the concrete mix. However, ADVA products are not recommended for use in concrete containing naphthalene-based admixtures including Daracem® 19 and Daracem 100, and melamine-based admixtures including Daracem ML 330 and Daracem 65. In general, it is recommended that ADVA 140M be added to the concrete mix near the end of the batch sequence for optimum performance. Different sequencing may be used if local testing shows better performance. Please see Grace Technical Bulletin TB-0110, Admixture Dispenser Discharge Line Location and Sequencing for Concrete Batching Operations for further recommendations. ADVA 140M
should not come in contact with any other admixture before or during batching, even if diluted in mix water. Pretesting of the concrete mix should be performed before use and as conditions and materials change in order to assure compatibility with other admixtures, and to optimize dosage rates, addition times in the batch sequencing and concrete performance. For concrete that requires air entrainment, the use of an ASTM C260 air-entraining agent (such as Daravair® or Darex® product lines) is recommended to provide suitable air void parameters for freeze-thaw resistance. Please consult your Grace representative for guidance.
Packaging & Handling ADVA 140M is available in bulk, delivered by metered tank trucks, in 275 gal (1040 L) disposable totes, and in 55 gal (208 L) drums. It will begin to freeze at approximately 32°F (0°C), but will return to full strength after thawing and thorough agitation. In storage, and for proper dispensing, ADVA 140M should not experience prolonged exposure below 32°F (0°C) nor above 132°F (55°C).

DARASET 400 Set-accelerating admixture ®
ASTM C494 Type C Product Description
Daraset® 400 is a non-corrosive, non-chloride admixture for concrete. It accelerates cement hydration resulting in shortened setting times and increased early compressive and flexural strengths. Daraset 400 does not contain calcium chloride and is formulated to comply with ASTM C494 Type C, and can be used at any dosage to comply with ACI 318 guidelines for chloride content of concrete. Daraset 400 weighs approximately 11.9 lbs/gal (1.43 kg/L).
Uses
Daraset 400 set accelerator may be used wherever it is desirable to reduce the setting time of concrete and/or to increase its early compressive and flexural strengths. For mixes designed with pozzolans, such as fly ash or slag, Daraset 400 set accelerator can help offset the retarding effects of these materials, especially in cooler temperatures. In cold weather, Daraset 400 may be used to reduce the time that it takes the concrete to set, prior to finishing. Typical results show that when concrete containing Daraset 400 is poured at 50°F (10°C), the concrete will set up to 2 hours faster than the reference concrete. When used in the manufacture of precast concrete, Daraset 400 speeds the concrete’s
Product Advantages • Accelerates setting time • Increases early compressive and flexural strengths • Offsets the retarding effects of pozzolans such as slag or fly ash • Non-corrosive • Complies with ASTM C494 Type C
strength development allowing for earlier form removals and more efficient production. Daraset 400 can also be used in masonry mortar to obtain higher early strengths and accelerated setting time effects.
Special Feature
Daraset 400 set accelerator provides setting time results and early strength development similar to that provided by calcium chloride, but without the potential corrosive effects. Daraset 400 can, therefore, at recommended dosage rates, safely be used where the potential corrosion of embedded or stressed steel must be avoided. It can also be used in concrete that is to be placed on steel clad or zinc coated steel decks where corrosion must be similarly avoided.
Performance
In concrete mixtures, Daraset 400 accelerates the chemical reaction between Portland cement and water. It speeds up the formation of gel—the binder that bonds concrete aggregates together. Accelerated gel formation in turn shortens the setting time of concrete, compensates for the set-slowing effects of cooler weather, and contributes to the development of higher early strengths.
Addition Rates
The amount of Daraset 400 used will depend on specific job conditions, on local materials and on the degree of set acceleration and early strength development required. Typical addition levels range from 10 to 60 fl oz/100 lbs (650 to 3910 mL/100 kg) of cement. Higher dosage rates may be used for select applications after consulting with your local Grace sales representative.
Compatibility with Other Admixtures and Batch Sequencing
Daraset 400 is compatible with most Grace admixtures as long as they are added separately to the concrete mix, usually through the water holding tank discharge line. In general, it is recommended that Daraset 400 be added to the concrete mix near the end of the batch sequence for optimum performance. Different sequencing may be used if local testing shows better performance. Please see Grace Technical Bulletin TB-0110, Admixture Dispenser Discharge Line Location and Sequencing for Concrete Batching Operations for further recommendations. Daraset 400 should not come into contact with any other admixture before or during the batching process, even if diluted in mix water. Pretesting of the concrete mix should be performed before use, and as conditions and materials change in order to assure compatibility, and to optimize dosage rates, addition times in the batch sequencing and concrete performance. For concrete that requires air entrainment, the use of an ASTM C260 air-entraining agent (such as Daravair® or Darex® product lines) is recommended to provide suitable air void parameters for freezethaw resistance. Please consult your Grace representative for guidance.
Packaging & Handling
Daraset 400 is currently available in bulk quantities by Grace metered systems, or in 55 gal (210 L) drums. Daraset 400 freezes at approximately -10°F (-23°C), but its set acceleration, strength gain and non-corrosive properties are completely restored by thawing and thorough agitation.
Dispensing Equipment
A complete line of accurate dispensers is available. While Daraset 400 may be added to the mix on the sand or in the water, for greatest effectiveness, we recommend Daraset 400 be added at the end of the batch cycle. Similar to all concrete admixtures, Daraset 400 should not come into contact with other admixtures prior to entering the concrete.
Specifications
The set-accelerating admixture shall be Daraset 400, non-chloride set accelerator, as manufactured by Grace Construction Products. The admixture shall be used in strict accordance with the manufacturers’ recommendations. The admixture shall comply with ASTM Designation: C494 Type C and will not contain purposely added chlorides or contribute to steel corrosion. DARASET 400 is NSF Std. 61 certified when used at a maximum addition rate of 40 fl oz/100 lbs (390 mL/100 kg) of cementitious material. Certification of compliance will be made available upon request. Concrete shall be proportioned in accordance with Recommended Practice for Selecting Proportions for Normal Weight Concrete, ACI 211.1 or Recommended Practice for Selecting Proportions for Structural Lightweight Concrete, ACI 211.2, or in accordance with ACI 318.

ZYLA 620 Water-reducing admixture ®
ASTM C494 Type A and D Product Description ZYLA® 620 water-reducing admixture is a proprietary formulation incorporating polycarboxylate and highly purified specialty organic chemicals. ZYLA 620 promotes more complete hydration of Portland cement and has minimal effect on concrete air entrainment. The ZYLA product line of water reducers is specially formulated to have a synergistic effect with polycarboxylate-based mid-range and high-range water reducers that improve flat-work finishability. This product contains no intentionally added chloride and as such is essentially chloride free. It is manufactured under rigid controls that provide uniform, predictable performance. ZYLA 620 is supplied as a light brown, low viscosity liquid, and is ready-to-use as received. One gallon weighs approximately 9.1 lbs (1.09 kg/L). ZYLA 620 meets the
Product Advantages • Minimal impact on concrete air content • Better control of water reduction and setting times as compared to traditional lignin-based water reducers • Synergistic performance of polycarboxylate-based mid-range and high-range water reducers, which include water reduction, concrete strength and air control • In the hardened state, improves the compressive and flexural strengths at all ages of concrete versus traditional lignin-based water reducers
requirements of Specification for Chemical Admixtures for Concrete, ASTM Designation C494 as a Type A and D admixture. Please consult your Grace representative for guidance on the ZYLA product line.
Uses ZYLA 620 is used to produce concrete mixes with lower water content (typically 3% to 10% reduction), greater plasticity and higher compressive strengths. ZYLA 620 is suitable for normal weight and light weight concrete in ready-mix, precast and prestressed applications.
Finishability The unique chemistry of ZYLA 620 positively impacts the finishability of concrete by providing a creamier and more homogenous texture, with more uniform and increased bleed rate relative to traditional lignin-based water reducers, although less than ZYLA 610. The influence of ZYLA 620 on the finishability of lean mixes has been particularly noticeable. Floating and troweling, by machine or hand, imparts a smooth, close tolerance surface.
Addition Rates The addition rate range of 3 to 5 fl oz/100 lbs (195 to 325 mL/100 kg) of cement or cementitious is typical for most applications. However addition rates of 2 to 10 fl oz/100 lbs (130 to 652 mL/100 kg) of cement or cementitious may be used if local testing shows acceptable performance. Pretesting is required to determine the appropriate addition rate for desired performance. The optimum addition rate depends on the other concrete mixture components, job conditions, and desired performance characteristics.
Compatibility with Other Admixtures and Batch Sequencing ZYLA 620 is compatible with most Grace admixtures as long as they are added separately to the concrete mix, usually through the water holding tank discharge line. However, ZYLA 620 is not recommended for use in concrete containing naphthalene-based admixtures including Daracem® 19 and Daracem 100, and melamine-based admixtures including Daracem ML 330. In general, it is recommended that ZYLA 620 be added to the concrete mix near the end of the batch sequence for optimum performance. Different sequencing may be used if local testing shows better performance. Please see Grace Technical Bulletin TB-0110, Admixture Dispenser Discharge Line Location and Sequencing for Concrete Batching Operations for further recommendations. ZYLA 620 should not come in contact with any other admixture before or during the batching process, even if diluted in mix water. Pretesting of the concrete mix should be performed before use, and as conditions and materials change in order to assure compatibility, and to optimize dosage rates, addition times in the batch sequencing and concrete performance. For concrete that requires air entrainment, the use of an ASTM C260 airentraining agent (such as Daravair® or Darex® product lines) is recommended to provide suitable air void parameters for freeze-thaw resistance. Please consult your Grace representative for guidance.
Packaging & Handling ZYLA 620 is available in bulk, delivered by metered tank trucks, in 275 gal (1,040 L) totes, and in 55 gal (210 L) drums. It will freeze at about 28°F (-2°C), but will be completely uniform after thawing and thorough agitation.
Dispensing Equipment A complete line of accurate, automatic dispensing equipment is available. ZYLA 620 may be introduced to the mix through the water holding tank discharge line. The ZYLA product line is formulated to be free of sediment.
Specifications Concrete shall be designed in accordance with Standard Recommended Practice for Selecting Proportions for Concrete, ACI 211.

Uses Darex II AEA is used in ready-mix, block, and concrete products plants to improve air entrainment stability. It is particularly effective in maintaining air content during longer haul times. Darex II AEA performs well in
Product Advantages • Air stability makes it particularly useful for longer transit times • Produces excellent air void systems in concretes that are traditionally difficult to air entrain
conventional concrete and is effective in plasticizing mixes and with slag, lightweight, or manufactured aggregates which tend to produce harsh concrete. Darex II AEA entrains air effectively with microsilica concrete and with fly ash concrete.
Performance By agitation of concrete mixers, Darex II AEA disperses and generates millions of discrete semi-microscopic bubbles throughout the concrete composite. Once thoroughly mixed, the concrete contains a stable network of bubbles which act much like ball bearings increasing mobility, or plasticity, of the concrete. This aids workability to the mix and permits a reduction of water with no loss of slump. Placeability is improved. Bleeding, segregation and green shrinkage are minimized. Through the purposeful entrainment of air, Darex II AEA markedly increases the durability of concrete to all exposures.
Addition Rates There is no standard addition rate for Darex II AEA. The amount to be used will depend upon the amount of air required under job conditions, usually in the range of 4 to 7%. Typical factors which might influence the amount of air entrained are temperature, cement, sand gradation, and use of extra fine materials such as fly ash. Typical Darex II AEA addition rates generally range from 1⁄2 to 5 fl oz/100 lbs (30 to 320 mL/100 kg) of cement. The air-entraining efficiency of Darex II AEA becomes even greater when used with waterreducing and set-retarding agents. This may allow a reduction of up to 2⁄3 in the amount of Darex II AEA required for the specified air content. Mix Adjustment Entrained air results in increased yields with a consequent decrease in the cement content of the placed concrete. This condition calls for a mix adjustment, usually accomplished by reducing the fine aggregate content. This is in addition to the reduction in water content brought about by the increase in plasticity.
Compatibility with Other Admixtures and Batch Sequencing Darex II AEA is compatible with most Grace admixtures as long as they are added separately to the concrete mix. In general, it is recommended that Darex II AEA be added to the concrete mix near the beginning of the batch sequence for optimum performance, preferably by “dribbling” on the sand. Different sequencing may be used if local testing shows better performance. Please see Grace Technical Bulletin TB-0110, Admixture Dispenser Discharge Line Location and Sequencing for Concrete Batching Operations for further recommendations. Darex II AEA should not be added directly to heated water.
Pretesting of the concrete mix should be performed before use, and as conditions and materials change in order to assure compatibility, and to optimize dosage rates, addition times in the batch sequencing and concrete performance. Please consult your Grace representative for guidance.
Packaging & Handling Darex II AEA is available in bulk, delivered by metered tank trucks, totes and drums. Darex II AEA will freeze at about 30°F (-1°C), but its air-entraining properties are completely restored by thawing and thorough mechanical agitation.
Dispensing Equipment A complete line of accurate dispensing equipment is available. These dispensers can be located to discharge into the water line, the mixer, or on the sand.

ADVA 140M High-range water-reducing admixture ®
ASTM C494 Type A and F, and ASTM C1017 Type I Product Description ADVA® 140M is a high-range water-reducing admixture based on polycarboxylate technology specifically formulated to meet the needs of the concrete industry. ADVA 140M meets the requirements of ASTM C494 as a Type A and F, and ASTM C1017 Type I. One gallon weighs approximately 8.8 lbs (1.1 kg/L) and does not contain intentionally added chloride. It is a low viscosity liquid that has been formulated by the manufacturer for use as received.
Uses ADVA 140M has been used successfully in a wide variety of concrete applications for high-slump, low water-to-cementitious ratio concrete requiring a high-range water reducer to flatwork in residential applications requiring a mid-range water reducer. ADVA 140M produces concrete with excellent workability characteristics for high slump and moderate slump concrete.
Product Advantages • Can be used as a high-range water reducer as well as a mid-range water reducer providing production flexibility • Consistent air entrainment • Consistent performance across cement chemistries • Provides a superior combination of long slump life with near neutral set time • Concrete finishes easily without stickiness, tearing or spotty set characteristics
ADVA 140M is ideal for use in any concrete where it is desired to keep the water/cementitious ratio to a minimum and still achieve the high strength and degree of workability necessary to provide easy placement and consolidation. ADVA 140M will also fluidize concrete making it ideal for tremie concreting or other applications where high slumps are desired.
Addition Rates Addition rates of ADVA 140M can vary with type of materials and application. The addition rate can range between 2 oz/cwt and 20 oz/cwt (130 mL/100 kg and 1300 mL/100 kg) of cement. Typical addition rates are: • High-range water reducer—9 to 16 oz/cwt (590 to 1040 mL/100 kg) • Mid-range water reducer—5 to 9 oz/cwt (325 to 590 mL/100 kg)
Optimal addition rates will depend on other concrete mixture components, job conditions, and desired performance characteristics. At a given water/cementitious ratio, the slump required for placement can be controlled by varying the addition rate. Should job site conditions require using more than recommended addition rates, please consult your Grace representative.
Compatibility with Other Admixtures and Batch Sequencing ADVA 140M is compatible with most Grace admixtures as long as they are added separately to the concrete mix. However, ADVA products are not recommended for use in concrete containing naphthalene-based admixtures including Daracem® 19 and Daracem 100, and melamine-based admixtures including Daracem ML 330 and Daracem 65. In general, it is recommended that ADVA 140M be added to the concrete mix near the end of the batch sequence for optimum performance. Different sequencing may be used if local testing shows better performance. Please see Grace Technical Bulletin TB-0110, Admixture Dispenser Discharge Line Location and Sequencing for Concrete Batching Operations for further recommendations. ADVA 140M
should not come in contact with any other admixture before or during batching, even if diluted in mix water. Pretesting of the concrete mix should be performed before use and as conditions and materials change in order to assure compatibility with other admixtures, and to optimize dosage rates, addition times in the batch sequencing and concrete performance. For concrete that requires air entrainment, the use of an ASTM C260 air-entraining agent (such as Daravair® or Darex® product lines) is recommended to provide suitable air void parameters for freeze-thaw resistance. Please consult your Grace representative for guidance.
Packaging & Handling ADVA 140M is available in bulk, delivered by metered tank trucks, in 275 gal (1040 L) disposable totes, and in 55 gal (208 L) drums.

DARASET 400 Set-accelerating admixture ®
ASTM C494 Type C Product Description
Daraset® 400 is a non-corrosive, non-chloride admixture for concrete. It accelerates cement hydration resulting in shortened setting times and increased early compressive and flexural strengths. Daraset 400 does not contain calcium chloride and is formulated to comply with ASTM C494 Type C, and can be used at any dosage to comply with ACI 318 guidelines for chloride content of concrete. Daraset 400 weighs approximately 11.9 lbs/gal (1.43 kg/L).
Uses
Daraset 400 set accelerator may be used wherever it is desirable to reduce the setting time of concrete and/or to increase its early compressive and flexural strengths. For mixes designed with pozzolans, such as fly ash or slag, Daraset 400 set accelerator can help offset the retarding effects of these materials, especially in cooler temperatures. In cold weather, Daraset 400 may be used to reduce the time that it takes the concrete to set, prior to finishing. Typical results show that when concrete containing Daraset 400 is poured at 50°F (10°C), the concrete will set up to 2 hours faster than the reference concrete. When used in the manufacture of precast concrete, Daraset 400 speeds the concrete’s
Product Advantages • Accelerates setting time • Increases early compressive and flexural strengths • Offsets the retarding effects of pozzolans such as slag or fly ash • Non-corrosive • Complies with ASTM C494 Type C
strength development allowing for earlier form removals and more efficient production. Daraset 400 can also be used in masonry mortar to obtain higher early strengths and accelerated setting time effects.
Special Feature
Daraset 400 set accelerator provides setting time results and early strength development similar to that provided by calcium chloride, but without the potential corrosive effects. Daraset 400 can, therefore, at recommended dosage rates, safely be used where the potential corrosion of embedded or stressed steel must be avoided. It can also be used in concrete that is to be placed on steel clad or zinc coated steel decks where corrosion must be similarly avoided.
Performance
In concrete mixtures, Daraset 400 accelerates the chemical reaction between Portland cement and water. It speeds up the formation of gel—the binder that bonds concrete aggregates together. Accelerated gel formation in turn shortens the setting time of concrete, compensates for the set-slowing effects of cooler weather, and contributes to the development of higher early strengths.
Addition Rates
The amount of Daraset 400 used will depend on specific job conditions, on local materials and on the degree of set acceleration and early strength development required. Typical addition levels range from 10 to 60 fl oz/100 lbs (650 to 3910 mL/100 kg) of cement. Higher dosage rates may be used for select applications after consulting with your local Grace sales representative.
Compatibility with Other Admixtures and Batch Sequencing
Daraset 400 is compatible with most Grace admixtures as long as they are added separately to the concrete mix, usually through the water holding tank discharge line. In general, it is recommended that Daraset 400 be added to the concrete mix near the end of the batch sequence for optimum performance. Different sequencing may be used if local testing shows better performance. Please see Grace Technical Bulletin TB-0110, Admixture Dispenser Discharge Line Location and Sequencing for Concrete Batching Operations for further recommendations. Daraset 400 should not come into contact with any other admixture before or during the batching process, even if diluted in mix water. Pretesting of the concrete mix should be performed before use, and as conditions and materials change in order to assure compatibility, and to optimize dosage rates, addition times in the batch sequencing and concrete performance. For concrete that requires air entrainment, the use of an ASTM C260 air-entraining agent (such as Daravair® or Darex® product lines) is recommended to provide suitable air void parameters for freezethaw resistance. Please consult your Grace representative for guidance.
Packaging & Handling
Daraset 400 is currently available in bulk quantities by Grace metered systems, or in 55 gal (210 L) drums. Daraset 400 freezes at approximately -10°F (-23°C), but its set acceleration, strength gain and non-corrosive properties are completely restored by thawing and thorough agitation.
Dispensing Equipment
A complete line of accurate dispensers is available. While Daraset 400 may be added to the mix on the sand or in the water, for greatest effectiveness, we recommend Daraset 400 be added at the end of the batch cycle. Similar to all concrete admixtures, Daraset 400 should not come into contact with other admixtures prior to entering the concrete.
Specifications
The set-accelerating admixture shall be Daraset 400, non-chloride set accelerator, as manufactured by Grace Construction Products. The admixture shall be used in strict accordance with the manufacturers’ recommendations. The admixture shall comply with ASTM Designation: C494 Type C and will not contain purposely added chlorides or contribute to steel corrosion. DARASET 400 is NSF Std. 61 certified when used at a maximum addition rate of 40 fl oz/100 lbs (390 mL/100 kg) of cementitious material. Certification of compliance will be made available upon request. Concrete shall be proportioned in accordance with Recommended Practice for Selecting Proportions for Normal Weight Concrete, ACI 211.1 or Recommended Practice for Selecting Proportions for Structural Lightweight Concrete, ACI 211.2, or in accordance with ACI 318.
