Howard,
In response to your concerns about the stair details listed on Zachry drawing BLLS25003. Your understanding of the stair
rail design is correct. The design details that the top rail should be a maximum of 34" above the top of tread. This
design is in accordance with OSHA 1910.24 Fixed industrial stairs.
OSHA 1910.23 (e)(2) states "a stair railing shall be of construction similar to a standard railing but the vertical
height shall be not more than 34 inches nor less than 30 inches from the upper surface of top rail to surfaces of
tread"
This stair rail design is a Natureworks site standard that can be found throughout the plant. The facility being of an
industrial nature, it is the intent of Natureworks to follow the guidelines of OSHA 1910 General Industry Regulations and
match existing facilities. Therefore, Natureworks is requesting that you take exception to the provisions for stair rail
stipulated in IBC 2009 sections 1012 and 1013 and allow the continued use of the site standard that is in accordance
with OSHA 1910.
Thank you for bringing this discrepancy to our attention; we appreciate your assistance with this matter.

Yes: OSHA standards will work fine for the factory work areas, not in any office type areas. OSHA standards are ok for
the Lactic Loadout plans. Please send me a copy of the OSHA stair, guard, and handrail specifications so I will have
something to inspect by.

The Cement and Ad- Mixtures are certified by the manufactures as complying with applicable project specifications.
Note: High range water reducer is available for higher slumps if needed.
CAUTION should be exercised when hard - troweling air entrained concrete. As stated in ACI 302.1R- 25,6.2:7
"It is recommended that an air entraining agent not be specified or used for concrete to be given a smooth, dense,
hard - troweled finish since blistering or delamination may occur."
Evaporation and Curing
Care should be taken to protect plastic concrete from evaporation issues caused by low humidity, high evaporation,
and or windy conditions. If proper curing of the concrete after the finishing process is not achieved combined with
improper timing, depth, or spacing of control joints cracking is likely to occur. Gerhold Concrete will not accept
responsibility for the replacement of concrete due to cracking if proper sub grade preparation, evaporation control,
timely jointing with proper depth & spacing, and proper post finish curing practices are not in place.
The aggregates are composed of sound, durable particles from State Highway approved sources. The gradations
of the aggregates will meet the following specifications.
