Does the MSJC/ACI 530 code have time frame for dating submittals like ACI does? Our specs require submittal of unit strength test results and the contractor has submitted a report that is almost 10 years old. I can't find anything to help me push back on this. Anyone else have to deal with this?

Don't accept it, that test is just too old.

I had somebody send me a stamped test result from 1900 recently, I said WTH. Building department didn't say anything, FYI. Dude most likely wasn't even alive in 1900 let alone had a license but whatever, and how many people couldn't care less and let it wander past when they used it before?
