I SECTION 2 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: Portland cement is a gray or white powder. A single short term exposure to the dry powder is not likelyto cause serious harm. Danger! Overexposure to wet Portland cement can cause serious, potentially irreversible skin or eye damage in the form of chemical (caustic) burns, including third degree burns. The same serious ifljury cafl occur if wet or moist skin has prolonged exposure to Idry Portland cement. OSHA HAZARD COMMUNICATION STANDARD: This material is considered hazardous under the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29CFR 1910.1200) and the California Hazard Communication Standard (Title 8 CCR 5194). POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS: Primary Route(s) of Exposure: skin contact, eye contact, and inhalation Eye Contact: Exposure to dust may cause immediate or delayed irritation or inflammation. Eye contact by larger amounts of dry powder or splashes of.wet Portland cement may cause effects ranging from moderate .eye:irritatioh to chemical burns and blindness. Such exposures require immediate: first aid (see Section 4) and medical attention to prevent.significant damage to the eye. Skin Contact: Contact with cement can cause drying the skin, irritatiOn, severe chemical burns (third- degree), and dermatitis. Overexposure to wet cement-can cause severe skin damage in the form of chemical burns, including third degree burns. The same severe injury can occur if wet or moist skin is exposed to dry Portland cement. Clothing wet with moisture from cement can transmit the causticeffécts Product Name: Portland Cement Revision Date: March 2007 Page 2 of 8 i9 MITSUBISHI CEMENT CORPORATION to the skin, causing chemical burns Portland cement causes skin burns with little warning; discomfort or pain cannot be relied upon to alert a person toa serious injury. You may not feel pain othe severity of the burn until hours after the exposure. Portland cement can cause dermatitis by irritation and allergy. Irritant dermatitis, is caused by fine particles of cement that abrade the skin mechanically and cause irritation resulting in deA'natitis. Portland cement May contain trace amounts of hexavalent chromium. Hexavalent chromium is associated with allergic.skin reactions which may appear as contact dermatitis and skin ulcerations. Persons already sensitized may react to..their first exposure to cement. Other individuals may develop allergic dermatitis after repeated exposure to cement. The symptoms of allergic reactions 'may include reddening of the skin, rash, and irritation. Symptom's of chronic exposure to wet cement may include reddening, irritation, and eczematous rashes. Drying, thickening, and cracking of the skin and nails may also..occur. Inhalation: Dusts may irritate the nose, throat, and respiratory tract. Coughing, sneezing, and shortness of breath may occur following exposures in excess of appropriate exposure limits. Prolonged and repeated inhalatiOn of respirable crystalline silica-containing .dust in excess of appropriate exposure limits has caused silicosis, fibrosis .or scar tissue formations in the lungs. Ingestion: Although small quantities of dust are not known to be harmful, ingestion of. large quantities may causesevere irritation and chemical burns Of the mouth, throat, stomach and digestive tract. Do not ingest Portland cement. Carcinogenicity: Portland cement is not listed as a carcinogen by NTP, OSHA, or IARC. However, it may contain trace.amounts of substances listed as a carcinogen by NTP, OSHA and IARC: crystalline silica, chromium VI compounds, nickel compounds, lead compounds. Warning: Crystalline silica; chromium (hexavalent), nickel compounds and lead compounds are known to the State of California to cause cancer. (Title :8 CCR 5194 (b)(6)(B)-(C).) Reproductive TOxicity: Portland cement may contain trace amounts of nickel and lead compounds. Warning: Nickel and lead compounds or substances are known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. (Title 8 CCR 5194 (b)(6)(B)-(C).) MEDICAL CONDITIONS WHICH MAY BE AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE Contact with wet cement may aggravate existing skin conditions. Inhaling dust may aggravate existing respiratory, and lung diseases. Dust may aggravate existing skin and eye conditions. Sensitivity to hexavalent chromium can be aggravated by exposure. SECTION 3 COMPOSITIONS!

P.O. Box 78450 Corona, CA 92877-0148 Re: Results of Aggregate Testing - Chandler Aggregates, Sierra Plant Heider Project No.: 970023-111 Dear Mr. Pendergrass, In accordance with your request, Heider Engineering has performed a series of aggregate tests and evaluations for coarse and fine aggregates &om the Coldwater Canyon production facility in Corona, California. The physical tests were performed to evaluate the material for use in Portland Cement Concrete. The physical testing of the aggregates was performed in accordance with ASTM C 33-99, "Standard Specification for Concrete Aggregates". The materials were sampled by our personnel on February 20, 2009. A summary of our findings follow with the physical test data attached.. COARSE AGGREGATE The coarse aggregate examined is crushed graveL primarily derived from an alluvial deposit new the base of Coldwater Canyon on the northeast flank of the Santa Ana Mountains. The aggregates consist primarily of rock material derived from metamorphic and igneous sources. The shape of the rock ranges from sub-rounded to angular. Flat and elongated pieces were found to be 0.9% of the 03 aggregate and 0.6% of the #4 aggregate, of the sample examined, The degradation of the aggregate, by physical and chemical methods, revealed LA Abrasion Test values ranging from 18% to 201/o and a Sodium Sulfate Soundness Test value of 1.5% for the combined #3 & #4 coarse aggregate. This testing indicates durable aggregate materiaL The results of ASTM C 289-94, "Potential Alkali-Silica Reactivity of Aggregates", revealed that the coarse aggregates do not show a potential for alkali-silica aggregate reactivity and are considered to be innocuous. However, consideration should be given to having either ASTM C 227 or ASTM C 1260 (Mortar-Bar Tests), performed to further examine the potential alkali reactivity of the aggregates. It is our opinion that the coarse aggregate tested and examined from this source is a material suitable for use in the manufacture of Portland Cement Concrete.

Physical testing for durability indicated a sound material, with a Durability mdc; CalTest 229, of 68 and with a Sodium Sulfate Soundness test, ASTM C 88, percent loss of 4.19%. The sand particles are primarily sub-rounded to angular. The results of ASTM C 289- 94, "Potential Alkali-Silica Reactivity of Aggregates", indicates that the fine aggregate can be considered innocuous. It is our opinion that the fine aggregate tested and examined from this source is a material suitable for use in the manufacture of Portland Cement Concrete.

Choose the mixer size most appropriate for the size of the job to be done Allow at least 1 cu ft (28 L) of mixer capacity for each 80 lb (36.3 kg) bag of QUIKRETE® Concrete Mix to be mixed at one tune For each 80 lb (36.3 kg) bag of QUIKRETE® Concrete Mix to be mixed, add approximately 6 pt (2.8 L) of fresh water to the mixer Turn on the mixer and begin adding the concrete to the mixer If the material becomes too difficult to mix, add additional water until a workable mix is obtained If a slump cone is available, adjust water to achieve a 2" - 3" (51 - 76 mm) slump Note - Final water content should be approximately 6 - 9 pt (2.8 - 4.3 L) of water per 80 lb (36.3 kg) bag of concrete. For other bag sizes, use Table 2 to determine water content. HAND MIXING INSTRUCTIONS Empty concrete bags into a suitable mixing container For each 80 lb (36.3 kg) bag of mix, add approximately 6 pt (2.8 L) of clean water Work the mix with a shovel, rake or hoe and add water as needed until a stiff, moldable consistency is achieved Be sure all material is wet Do not leave standing puddles Note - For other bag sizes, use Table 2 to determine water content. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION QUIKRETE® Concrete Mix is a pre-blended mixture of cement and aggregates for general structural uses, requiring only the addition of water. TABLE 2 MIXING WATER FOR QUIKRETE@ CONCRETE MIX Package size, lb (kg) Starting Water Final Water, Content, pt (L) Content, pt (L) 80(36.3) 6 (2.8) 6-9 (2.8-4.3) 60(27.2) 4(1.9) 4-7 (1.9-3.3) 40(18.1) 3(1.4) 3-4.5(1.4-2.1) APPLICATION Method for Pouring a Slab Dampen the sub-grade before concrete is placed Do not leave standing puddles Shovel or place concrete into the form; fill to the full depth of the form After concrete has been compacted and spread to completely fill the forms without air pockets, strike off and float immediately To strike off, use a straight board (screed), moving the edge back and forth with a saw-like motion to smooth the surface Use a darby or bull float to float the surface; this levels any ridges and fills voids left by the straight edge Cut the concrete away from the forms by running an edging tool or trowel along the forms to compact the slab edges Cut 1" (25.4 mm) deep control joints into the slab every 6'- 8(1.8 - 2.4 m) using a grooving tool Allow concrete to stiffen slightly, waiting until all water has evaporated from the surface before troweling or applying a broom finish Note - For best results, do not overwork the material. Method for Setting Fence Posts Dig post hole about 3 times the diameter of the post. Hole depth should be 1/3 the overall post height Place 6" (152 mm) of dry concrete mix in the bottom of the hole. Position the post, checking that it is level and plumb. Combine concrete mix with water and place into the hole When standing water has evaporated from the concrete, smooth the surface. Taper it away from the post so rain will flow in that direction. Wait 24 hours before post is subjected to any strain For load-bearing applications, follow local building codes for proper footing specifications FINISHING Any standard concrete finishing technique is acceptable for use with QUIKRETE® Concrete Mix. Concrete can be hand troweled, power- troweled, broom finished or finished with other specialty finishes. CURING General Curing is one of the most important steps in concrete construction. Proper curing increases the strength and durability of concrete, and a poor curing job can ruin an otherwise well-done project. Proper water content and temperature are essential for good curing. In near freezing temperatures the hydration process slows considerably. When weather is too hot, dry or windy, water is lost by evaporation from the concrete, and hydration stops, resulting in finishing difficulties and cracks. The ideal circumstances for curing are ample moisture and moderate temperature and wind conditions. Curing should be started as soon as possible and should continue for a period of 5 days in warm weather at 70°F (21°C) or higher or 7 days in colder weather at 50 - 70°F (10 - 21°C). Specific Curing Methods QUIKRETE® Acrylic Cure & Seal - Satin Finish provides the easiest and most convenient method of curing. Apply by spray, brush or roller soon after the final finishing operation when the surface is hard. The surface may be damp, but not wet, when applying curing compound. Complete coverage is essential Other methods of providing proper curing include covering the surface with wet burlap; keeping the surface wet with a lawn sprinkler and sealing the concrete surface with plastic sheeting or waterproof paper to prevent moisture loss If burlap is used, it should be free of chemicals that could weaken or discolor the concrete. New burlap should be washed before use. Place it when the concrete is hard enough to withstand surface damage and sprinkle it periodically to keep the concrete surface continuously moist Water curing with lawn sprinklers, nozzles or soaking hoses must be continuous to prevent interruption of the curing process Curing with plastic sheets is convenient. They must be laid flat, thoroughly sealed at joints and anchored carefully along edges PRECAUTIONS Curing compounds should not be applied if rain or temperatures below 50°F (10°C) are expected within 24 hours Curing with plastic or burlap can cause patchy discoloration in colored concrete. For colored concrete, wet curing or the use of QUIKRETE® Acrylic Cure & Seal - Satin Finish is recommended Do not use curing compounds during late fall on surfaces where de- icers will be used to melt ice and snow. Using curing compounds at that time may prevent proper air drying of the concrete, which is necessary to enhance its resistance to damage caused by de-icers Protect concrete from freezing during the first 48 hours. Plastic sheeting and insulation blankets should be used if temperatures are expected to fall below 32°F (0°C) WARRANTY The QUIKRETE® Companies warrant this product to be of merchantable quality when used or applied in accordance with the instructions herein.
