SCOPE OF WORK: The work under this Contract shall include the construction of the gravity sewers and all appurtenances, as shown on the Plans, complete and operative. Construction work included under these Specifications shall be so planned and executed that the various portions of the work will be carried on concur- rently and the whole ,completed within the time allowed. All work under this Contract shall be paid for on a unit price basis as described in the Information for Bidders. 2. SHOP DRAWINGS: In accordance with paragraph 6 of the Special Conditions, shop drawings shall be submitted for approval. Payment for shop drawings shall be included in the price bid for the item of equipment or material for which the shop drawing is furnished. 3. HANDLING OF MATERIALS: no VW VY All materials shall be delivered and distributed to the site of the work by the Contractor. Payment for work described in this paragraph shall be included in the price bid for the item containing the various pieces of equipment or material. 4. CONCRETE: The Contractor's attention is called to the fact that the Specifications for Class A and Class B concrete carry three limiting factors, all of which shall be complied with. These factors are: (1) minimum strength, (2) minimum No volume of cement per cubic yard of concrete, and (3) maximum volume of water per sack of cement. a. Classes of Concrete. Class C concrete may be used for fill in trenches to restore surface rock to its original contour. Class B concrete shall be used for encasement and cradling of pipe. All other concrete used on this project shall be Class A concrete, unless otherwise specifically noted on the AM Plans. II-1 b. Class A Concrete. Class A concrete ahall have a minimum compressive strength of 3,500 pounds per square inch in 28 days and shall consist of the mixture which results in one cubic yard of concrete to each batch of fine and coarse aggregate and water used to each six sacks of cement. Total water shall be limited to a maximum of 6-1/2 gallons per sack of cement. The fine and coarse aggregates for each batch of concrete where monolithic construction is to be carried out shall be accurately weighed; the exact weight of each batch shall be that necessary to produce a dense workable concrete with the yield per sack of cement as herein specified when mixed within the limitations of the amount of water herein specified. Where small batches of concrete are to be used and the concrete is mixed on the site, Class A concrete shall be considered as that mixture consisting of 2 cubic feet of dry fine aggregate, not more than 3-1/2 cubic feet of dry coarse aggregate to each sack of cement, mixed with not more than 6-1/2 gallons of total added water. c. Class B Concrete. Class B concrete shall have a minimum compressive strength of 2,000 pounds per square inch in 28 days and shall consist of the mixture which results in one cubic yard of concrete to each batch of fine and coarse aggregate and water used to each four sacks of cement. Total water shall be limited to a maximum of 8-1/2 gallons per sack of cement. Where small batches of concrete are to be used and the concrete is mixed on the site, Class B concrete shall be considered as that mixture consisting of 3 cubic feet of dry fine aggregate, not more than 5 cubic feet of dry coarse aggregate to each sack of cement, mixed with not more than 8-1/2 gallons of total added water. d. Class C Concrete. Class C concrete shall consist of the mixture which results in one cubic yard of concrete to each batch of fine and coarse aggre- gate and water used to each two sacks of cement. Total water shall be limited lot to a maximum of 9-1/2 gallons per sack of cement. e. Determination of Added Water. In determining the amount of added water, allowance should be made for the moisture content in the aggregates. in measuring the fine aggregate by volume for small batches of concrete, if the aggregate is wet, allowance should be made for the bulking on account of the presence of moisture. f. Proportioning. The concrete mixtures will be approved by the.Engineer from design mix tests. All materials required for these tests shall be sup- plied by the Contractor from samples taken from the approved source of supply. At any time during the construction period, the relative weights of fine and coarse aggregates as determined by the original mix design may be varied slightly in order to ensure the use of the laast amount of fine aggregate which will produce workable concrete with the slumps specified. The water content of the concrete shall at all times be the minimum neces- sary to properly place the concrete. It shall be regulated as required to adjust for any variation in the moisture content or grading of the aggregates. Addition of water to compensate for stiffening of the consistency before placing will not be permitted. Uniformity of concrete consistency from batch to batch will be required. II-2 All concrete shall be proportioned by weight. Allowance must be made for the weight of moisture in the aggregates in order to determine the amount of additional water required for the given concrete mix design. g. Air-Entrained Concrete. An air-entraining admixture, approved by the Engineer may be used in the concrete should the Contractor desire to im- prove the workability of the concrete. No additional payment will be made for the use of an admixture approved by the Engineer at the Contractor's request. The air-entraining admixture shall be added to the concrete during the process of mixing. The agents shall be accurately measured and dispensed by means of an approved adjustable mechanical dispenser which will automatically and gradually discharge the required amount of material into the mixing water. The entire amount of air-entraining agent shall be fully discharged before all of the mixing water has entered the drum of the mixer. The dispenser shall be so constructed that it can be accurately calibrated for the quantity of agent discharged at various settings and shall be provided with means by which the discharge can be readily diverted from the stream of mixing water to a con- tainer for measurement. Class A concrete which contains an approved admixture shall contain 5 per cent plus or minus 1 per cent of entrained air by volume. The volume of entrained air in the freshly mixed concrete will be measured by the Engineer sm by the volumetric method, Test for Air Content of Freshly Mixed Concrete by the Volumetric Method, ASTM Designation C173, or by the pressure method, Test for Air Content of Freshly Mixed Concrete by the Pressure Method, ASTM Desig- nation C231. Mixes will be designed for the recommended air content and adequate control shall be provided to keep the air content within the required limits. h. Consistency. The consistency of the concrete shall be such that the slump, when measured according to Test for Slump of Portland Cement Concrete, ASTM Designation C143, is the lowest compatible with workability and ease of placing. In general, the slump shall not exceed 3 inches. No additional water shall be added at the site of placement except with permission and under strict supervision of the Engineer and then only in an emergency. Such additional water shall be added only in small increments and then only in the smallest amount necessary within the required limits of con- sistency for the particular work, and shall be uniformly mixed and incorporated into the unplaced concrete before deposition in the forms. i. Mining. Concrete required for blocking, encasement and other uses incidental to the installation of pipe involving small quantities may either be mixed by machine or by hand. All other concrete shall be mixed by machine. J . Mixing by Machine. The mixer to be used shall be so designed as to take one complete batch of materials using whole bags of cement only and to mix that batch thoroughly before any portion of it is withdrawn and any portion of the succeeding batch is introduced. In no case shall the volume of the batch to be mixed be greater than the amount of materials which can be loaded and mixed in the mixer without any loss during the loading or mixing by spilling. The mixer shall be equipped with a water tank accurately calibrated so that II-3 the required amount of water can be added to each batch, and with a batch meter or other suitable attachment for satisfactorily locking the discharging device so as to prevent the emptying of the drum until all of the materials have been mixed together for the minimum time required. After all the ingredients, including water, have been placed in the drum, they shall be thoroughly mixed in the mixer for a period of not less than one minute. During this period the drum shall make not less than 14 nor more than 20 revolutions per minute. k. Central Plant Concrete Mixing. In lieu of mixing on the job by machine or by hand, central plant concrete will be permitted, provided the concrete conforms to the proportioning hereinbefore specified, is mixed at a central plant or in transit in equipment approved by the Engineer, and in conformity with current ASTM Specifications for Ready-Mixed Concrete (C94) . The concrete shall be delivered to the job in batches of such size that it can be conveniently handled without setting up during placing, without segre- gation of aggregates, and of satisfactory consistency to ensure a uniform concrete mixture when placed. 1. Hand Mixing. Where hand mixing of concrete is permitted, it shall be carried out on watertight boards or pans in not more than 2-sack batches. The cement and fine aggregates shall first be mixed dry until a uniform color is obtained. The water shall then be gradually added and the mixture made into a mortar, adding additional water until the desired consistency is reached. The coarse aggregate shall then be spread upon the mortar and covered with mortar. The whole mass shall then be cut through and turned over not less than four times or until thoroughly mixed with a uniform homogeneous mixture obtained before being removed from the mixing board or pan in the place where it is to be deposited. The total amount of water shall not exceed the limitations herein- before specified for Class A, B or C concrete. m. Forms. Forms for concrete shall be rigidly braced so that they cannot bulge or warp and leave an unworkmanlike finished surface. They may be con- structed of any material with sufficient strength which will give. the finished work a satisfactory surface. They must be sufficiently tight so that mortar cannot escape from the concrete in appreciable quantity. Forms shall be cleaned and be thoroughly moistened or treated with form oil before concrete is placed. All exposed exterior concrete corners shall be chamfered one inch. n. Reinforcing. All reinforcing shall be rigidly fastened in the forms prior to the pouring of any concrete in such manner that the steel will be held accurately to the location shown on the Plans. Steel shall be cleaned of rust, scale, oil, or other surface matter before being placed in forms. o. Placing. The methods and equipment used for transporting concrete ffa and the time that elapses during transportation shall be such as will not cause appreciable segregation of coarse aggregate, or slump loss in excess of one inch in the concrete as it is placed in the project. 11-4 MUM ME Before placing concrete in the forms or in the place of deposit, all debris and foreign materials, soft earth, or mud, shall be removed. Water shall be removed from the place of deposit. No concrete shall be placed in water. Steel or wood forms shall be oiled and treated to prevent adhesion of concrete and damage to the concrete surface upon removal of the forms. Concrete shall be placed as nearly as practicable in its final position to avoid segregation due to rehandling or flowing. Concreting shall be carried on at such a rate that the concrete is at all times plastic and flows readily into the forms and around reinforcing. No concrete shall be used that has partially hardened or has been contaminated by foreign material or that has been retempered. Placing of concrete shall be performed only in the presence of a duly authorized representative of the Engineer unless inspection is waived in each specific case. The temperature of concrete when it is being placed shall be not more than 90 degrees F. or less than 40 degrees F. Concrete shall be placed before initial set has occurred. Before depositing concrete on or against concrete which has taken its initial set, the surface of the hardened concrete shall be broken off down to coarse aggregate and wire-brushed to remove foreign matter and laitance. A layer of grout of the same cement-sand ratio as the concrete without coarse aggregate shall be placed to a thickness of 1 to 2 inches on the brushed sur- face after which the new concrete shall be placed immediately. When concreting has once started, it shall be carried on as a continuous operation until the section or structural unit is completed. All concrete shall be thoroughly compacted by vibrators, spading or other suitable means during the operation of placing, to ensure that concrete will flow around all reinforcement, embedded fixtures and into the corners of the forms to give a dense finished product with true surfaces free from honeycombing, segregation and other imperfections. Concrete shall be placed in horizontal layers of no greater depth than 18 inches. Concrete shall be placed at a suitable rate to avoid the formation of unauthorized cold joints. In no case shall vibrators be used to transport the concrete inside the forms. Care shall be taken when placing concrete through reinforcing steel so that the segregation of coarse aggregate is kept to a minimum. In such cases, spouts, elephant trunks, or other suitable means shall be used. The free fall of concrete shall be held to a practical minimum and shall not exceed 5 feet at any time. The placing of concrete shall be so planned that horizontal and vertical construction joints are made where shown on the drawings or where approved by the Engineer. Structural keys shown on the Plans shall have a minimum width of 4 inches and a depth of 1-1/2 inches. The concrete shall be left with a roughened surface for construction ,joints. Waterstops shall be placed as shown on the Plans and in all construction joints subject to water on one side and where the opposite side is intended to be dry. I1-5 NINE31111210=3=1111 p. Protection. The Contractor shall protect all concrete against injury until final acceptance by the Engineer. During cold weather all concrete materials and all reinforcement, forms, fill material, and ground with which the concrete will. be placed in contact, shall be free of frost or ice and snow. Whenever the temperature of the surrounding area is 40 degrees F. and falling, no concrete shall be placed unless the Contractor has on hand sufficient, suitable, and approved means of protecting the concrete. Whenever the temperature of the surrounding air is between 40 degrees F. and 32 degrees F. , all concrete placed in the forms shall have a temperature between 50 and 70 degrees F. Adequate means shall be provided for maintaining a temperature in the surrounding air not less than 70 degrees F. for at least three days, or 50 degrees F. for five days. The housing, covering, or other protection used shall remain intact and in place at least 24 hours after artificial heating is discontinued. Care must be used to prevent fire hazards when using heating and no fire or excessive heat shall be permitted near or in direct contact with concrete at any time. Salt or chemicals shall not be used in the concrete to prevent freezing. Whenever the temperature of the surrounding air reaches 32 degrees F. , or lower, concrete shall not be placed except with the approval of the Engineer who shall state the time in addition to that specified herein that artificial heat and protection must be supplied. Whenever the temperature of the surrounding air reaches 20 degrees F. or lower, no concrete shall be placed except for emergencies and only with special permission and super- vision of the Engineer. q. Curing of Concrete. All concrete placed when the temperature is above 40 degrees F. shall be either sprinkled continuously for 72 hours, or shall be covered with burlap which shall be kept moist for at least 72 hours. The use of membrane curing shall be permitted only when approved by the Engineer. The membrane curing compound shall be of a type approved by the Engineer. Concrete cured with water shall be kept continually wet for at least 72 hours immediately following placement of the concrete, or until covered with fresh concrete. The concrete to be cured shall be kept wet by covering with water-saturated material or by a system of perforated pipes, mechanical sprinklers, or porous hose, or by any other approved method which will keep all surfaces to be cured continuously (not periodically) wet. Water curing shall commence as soon as the concrete has hardened sufficiently to.prevent damage. Water used for curing shall meet the requirements for water used for mixing concrete. Membrane curing compound shall be applied to formed surfaces immediately after the forms are removed. If any areas require patching, or any other surface treatment, the membrane curing shall not be applied to that area until after the area has been repaired. The area to be repaired shall be kept continually wet by a method approved by the Engineer prior to the patching or surface treatment of the area. Following the patching or surface treatment and a 24-hour period of water curing, the area may, at the Con- tractor's option, be treated with membrane curing compound for the remainder of the curing period. II-6 Any membrane curing compound applied to surfaces that require patching or other surface treatment, or to surfaces that are specified to be water cured as listed above, shall be completely removed by sand blasting. Where membrane curing is used, following removal of the forms, the surfaces shall be thoroughly moistened with water and the curing compound applied as soon as free water disappears. The curing compound shall be applied to unformed sur- faces as soon as free water disappears or immediately following finishing where special finishing operations are specified. The curing compound shall be applied in a two-coat continuous operation by approved power-spraying equipment and at a uniform coverage of not more than 300 square feet per gallon for each coat. All concrete surfaces on which the curing compound has been applied, shall be adequately protected for a period of 72 hours from any cause which will dis- rupt the continuity of the curing membrane. Any curing membrane damaged during the 72-hour period, shall. be restored as directed by the Engineer. All concrete and reinforcing steel shown on the Plans or required by the specifications shall be included in the unit price bid for each item in which the concrete is used, and will not be measured or paid for separately, except Class B and C concrete used for pipe encasement or trench backfill, which will be measured and paid for as noted elsewhere in these specifications. 5. INTERFERENCE WITH TRAFFIC: It must be recognized that in some instances the work of this project involves the construction of sewers along the public streets of the developed municipality. Access to abutting property should be provided wherever it is possible without interference with the construction operation. The Contractor will be required to provide satisfactory bridges to allow traffic to cross over the excavated trench where the street intersection is traversed by open cut excavation. Care should be taken to avoid blocking of access to fire hydrants during this construction. After the sewer is constructed and the backfill made over the completed sewer, a temporary pavement is to be laid down and the street open to traffic in order to provide access to abutting property as soon as possible. Open cut crossings are to be maintained for 60 days with macadam or other satisfactory material so as. to provide an all-weather roadway surface, after which time the restoration of the permanent pavement of the type ordered by the Engineer shall be carried out. Payment for all work described in this paragraph shall be included in the unit price bid for "Class B Trench Excavation." 6. PROTECTION OF TREES AND RESTORATION OF LANDSCAPED AREAS: Wherever the sewer is to be built in a right-of-way located along occupied property which has been landscaped or in the sidewalk space adjacent to trees, and wherever trees are encountered adjacent to the line of the work, the Contractor's operations must be so organized and carried out as not to disturb or destory any trees except where permission to do so has been obtained from the property owners with the Engineer's approval. The existing surface shall not be disturbed beyond the limits of the right-of-way, which shall include the II-7 AD necessary area for storing of materials of construction and excavated mate- rials. Upon completion of the work, the surface shall be replaced to conform to the original surface. Where turf has been disturbed, the completed backfilled surface shall be sodded or raked and seeded during the proper time of the year. Where excavated material is stored adjacent to trees, it shall be carried away so as not to cause injury to them in any way. If necessary, boxing shall be provided around trees, plants or shrubs. Upon completion of the work, such boxing shall be removed and the original condition restored. Payment for carrying out the necessary protection and restoration of trees and landscaped area, as herein specified, shall be included in the payments made at the price bid per cubic yard for "Class B Trench Excavation." Where excavation is made through surface rock, the Contractor may be required to restore the surface to its original contour. The Contractor will replace the surface rock with Class C concrete at the direction of the Engi- neer. Such concrete will be measured and paid for at the price bid per cubic yard for "Class C Concrete", the volume to be calculated on the basis of the payline width of trench, as noted in Section II, para. 13, the length backfilled, and the depth of concrete fill required. 7. PROTECTION OF EXISTING STRUCTURES: The work must be carried out in such a manner that all structures or improvements along and adjacent to the new sewer construction are properly protected. Any damage occurring to property of others because of the Contractor's operation shall be repaired to the satisfaction of the owner of said private property by the Contractor and the cost considered as covered in the item of "Class B Trench Excavation." AM IP 8. PROTECTION OF POLE LINES2 WATER AND GAS PIPES, AND ALL OTHER UNDERGROUND UTILITIES: On the Plans, for the work to be constructed under this Contract, is shown the record information which has been obtained from the utilities for underground pipes or conduits which exist along the line of the proposed sewers or at the location of the other improvements. The City does not guarantee the accuracy of these locations, but merely indicates the information which has been obtained from the companies owning such underground pipes or conduits. The locations of utility poles, shown as noted at the time of the survey, may have since been changed. It is assumed that the Contractor will make a field inspection of the locations of the work, and note all poles and overhead improvements which may affect his method of operation in the construction of the sewers and other improvements at such locations. Such poles, overhead wires, underground pipes and conduits that may exist or may be encountered are to be protected at the Contractor's expense. Any expense or inconvenience caused by their existence, and the necessary pro- tection during the construction of the sewers or other facilities adjacent thereto, shall be considered as covered and included in the price bid for II-8 jjj "Class B Trench Excavation," or the lump sum bid for other improvements. The Contractor shall notify the utility owners in advance of any construction which would expose underground pipelines or otherwise affect their safety. 9. REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT OF SECONDARY PAVEMENTS: Usable dirt roads and secondary pavements, consisting largely of crushed rock and cinders, which are to be removed in the course of the construction, shall be replaced with a layer of crushed rock compacted to a minimum thick- ness of 8 inches. The road surface shall be maintained for a period of 60 days after initial replacement to allow for settlement and consolidation of the backfill, after which it shall be bladed to a smooth and uniform surface. No separate payment for the removal and restoration of secondary pave- ments shall be made. Payment for such removal and replacement shall be considered as included in the price bid for "Class B Trench Excavation." 10. REMOVAL AND RESTORATION OF ASPHALTIC PAVEMENT: The asphaltic pavement to be removed shall be cut to neat straight lines. After completion of the granular backfill, a layer of crushed rock shall be compacted to a minimum thickness of 8 inches. The rock course shall be primed and covered with a minimum of 2 inches of asphaltic concrete wearing surface to the cross section and grade as set by the Engineer to meet the present undisturbed pavement on each side of the area restored. Asphaltic concrete and placing methods used shall be similar in quality to the original pavement and approved by the Engineer. The Contractor shall restore the surface to the grade specified by the Engineer, should any settlement take place within 1 year of the initial pavement restoration. Payment for the removal and restoration of asphaltic concrete shall be limited to an area calculated on a width equal to the trench payline widths herein specified for the particular size of sewer installed, multiplied by the length of pavement restored. Payment will be made at the price bid per square yard for "Restoration of Asphaltic Pavement," which payment shall include the whole cost of removing the existing pavement within cut straight lines, disposing of the material removed from the line of work, preparing the subgrade, furnishing of plant, labor, materials, tools and all other am incidentals which may be necessary for removing and restoring the pavement. 11. REMOVAL AND RESTORATION OF CONCRETE CURB: Where the alignment of the sewers requires the removal of existing concrete curb, removal shall be to the full width of the concrete pavement removal. The curb shall be cut in a neat straight line and shall be replaced to the same cross section as that removed, using Class A concrete. .Payment for the removal and restoration of concrete curb will be made at the price bid per lineal foot for "Restoration of Concrete Curb," which II-9 payment shall include the whole cost of removing the curb and laying the new sections as required. Curb paralleling the sewer trench will not be measured or paid for unless it falls within a distance equal to one-half the payline width of the trench involved. 12. SIDEWALKS AND DRIVEWAYS: Where sidewalks or driveways are removed, the Contractor shall replace them with materials similar to those removed and to the reasonable satisfac- tion of the owner. No separate payment for the removal and restoration of sidewalks and go driveways shall be made. Payment for such removal and replacement shall be considered as included in the price bid for "Class B '.french Excavation." 13. TRENCH EXCAVATION: The work included under "Trench Excavation" shall comprise any necessary clearing of the line on which the sewer is to be constructed; of making all excavations of all materials of every description which may be encountered and as classified hereinafter as "Trench Excavation, Class A" and "Trench Exca- vation, Class B"; of furnishing and placing of all shoring, sheeting and bracing which may be necessary to protect the work and to execute it; of shaping the bottom; of furnishing all equipment which may be necessary to keep the trenches free from water so that the sewers and concrete may be placed in the dry; of providing for the unii,L:_,rrul)ted flow of surface .water or sewage adjacent to the line of the work during the progress of the work so as not to interfere with the natural surface flows; of protecting all pipes, conduits, culverts, AM MR bridges and all other public and private property which may be endangered by the work; and of hauling away all surplus excavated material. A series of borings was taken along the entire length of the construction. The results of these borings are shown on the Plans for information only. There is no expressed or implied agreement or guarantee that the depths or character of materials are correctly shown or that conditions affecting the work will not differ from those shown on the Plans. All excavation shall be carried out accurately to the line and grade as shown on the Plans and as established by the Engineer. If the bottom of the excavation is found to be unstable or to include ashes, cinders, refuse, vegetable or other organic materials considered finsuit- able by the Engineer, the Contractor shall excavate and remove such unsuitably: material to the depth required and backfill to the original subgrade with granular backfill, well-compacted by means of mechanical tampers or vibrators in 6-inch layers, except as noted hereinafter. If over-excavation is required by the Engineer, the quantity of such authorized additional excavation shall be determined by the Engineer, and the Contractor shall be paid by..the City for the over-excavation at the unit price bid for "Class B Trench Excavation." II-10 a Any unauthorized over-excavation shall also be back£illed as described above but no payment shall be made for such over-excavation and backfilling. All excavation shall be dewatered before any construction is undertaken therein. Concrete shall be placed only upon dry firm foundation material and pipe shall be laid only in dry trenches. The responsibility of the Contractor with respect to the use of explo- sives in blasting includes compliance with all laws, rules and regulations of the State, the City and the insuror, governing the keeping, storage, use, manufacture, sale, handling, transportation or other distribution of explo- sives. All operations involving the handling, storage and use of explosives shall be conducted with every precaution by trained, reliable men under satisfactory supervision. Blasts shall not be fired until all persons in the vicinity have had ample notice and have reached positions out of danger therefrom. The Contractor shall advise the Engineer in advance when charges are to be set off. After a blast is fired, the Contractor shall thoroughly scale the excavation, removing all loose and shattered rock or other loose material which may be dangerous to the workmen, and the excavation shall be made safe before proceeding with the work. The fact that the removal of loose or shattered material may enlarge the excavation beyond the required limits shall not relieve the Contractor from the necessity for making such removal, and the Contractor shall not be entitled to compensation therefor. Class A material is any material, such as solid limestone or hard stone in original bed or well-defined ledges, large boulders, detached pieces of limestone or hard stoner or mass concrete more than 9 cubic feet in volume, any of which cannot be removed by heavy equipment without drilling and. blasting or wedging. Where rock or other hard material occurs in the trench so that any portion of the pipe would rest on rock or hard material, or at the direction of the Engineer, the trench excavation shall be carried to a depth below the planned grade so that no rock is closer than 2 inches to the outside of the pipe at any point. The width of trenches shall be ample to permit the pipe to be laid, jointed, and covered properly. AM Class B material is any material not included in Class A excavation. Trenches shall be dug so that all pipes can be laid to the alignment and depth required. The width of trenches shall be ample to permit the pipe to be laid and jointed properly and the backfill to be placed and com- pacted. Additional width shall. be provided where shoring or bracing is used. In order to avoid superimposed loading in excess of the designed and specified pipe strength and to provide sufficient room for proper installation and bedding of pipe, the trench widths for the sewer pipe sizes used shall be kept within the limits specified as follows: II-11 Size of Pipe Minimum Width Maximum Width 8" - 12" 2'-4" 2'-10" 15" 2'-8" 3'-2" 18" 2'-11" 3t-6" 2.1" 31-311 V-10" 24" 3'-6" 4'-0" 27" 31-911 1-411 30" 41-11' 4 r-8f' 36" 4'-8" 5'-0" The Contractor may, at his option, where working conditions and rights-of-way permit, and with the approval of the Engineer, excavate sewer trenches with sloping sides, but with the following limitations: Only braced vertical trenches will be permitted in streets, alleys or easements which are paved, or in locations where the trenches are in close proximity to utilities, buildings, railroad tracks, or other installations which could be endangered by the excavation. Where trenches are excavated with sloping sides for pipe sewers to be installed, the slope shall not extend below a point one foot above the extrados of the pipe, and the trench excavation below the point shall be carried out with vertical sides for widths not exceeding the maximum widths provided for in these specifications above. Any trench excavated with sloping sides for pipe sewers which has a width one foot above the top of the pipe in excess of the maximum trench width permitted will result in an increased load on the sewer pipe. If slopes are allowed to extend below this level, or if the width of the trench at this level is greater than the specified maximum width, additional strengthening of the pipe is required, and accordingly, wherever such conditions exist and where the fill on the pipe exceeds 6 feet, the Contractor shall place granular fill between the bottom of the trench and the level of the intrados of the pipe from the outside of the pipe to the undisturbed sides of the trench. No payment shall be made for such granu- lar backfilling which shall become necessary on account of the Contractor's operations in excavating trenches of excessive widths below the specified levels. The elevations shown on the profiles of the sewers are those of the flowline of the pipes. In excavating the bottom of the trench in material other than rock, the Contractor shall allow for the thickness of the pipe where pipe sewers are installed, and shall shape the trench bottom by hand to fit the lower section of the pipe, as shown on the Plans, recessing for the bell holes where the bell projects beyond the barrel of the pipe in such manner as to relieve the bell of all load. If the bottom has not been excavated to conform to the outside of the pipes, as shown in detail on the Plans, the backfill necessary to the required grade for the outside of the pipe shall be made with crushed rock for bedding. Bedding shall have a minimum thickness of 2 inches beneath the pipe and shall be placed up to the springline of the pipe. If in the opinion of the Engineer the natural II-12 material is suitable for bedding, t may be used in lieu of crushed rock. g, y Such crushed rock where excess excavation occurs shall be placed at the Contractor's own expense. If the material in the bottom of the trench is unstable or otherwise unsuitable for supporting the pipe, the unsuitable material may be excavated as directed by the Engineer. The quantity of such authorized additional exca- vation shall be determined by the Engineer and paid for by the City at the unit price bid for "Class B Trench Excavation." Where necessary to protect the labor, the work, or adjacent property and in all trenches with vertical sides deeper than 6 feet, the Contractor shall provide and install shoring. The sides of the trench shall be -securely held by bracing or sheeting of either wood or steel. Shoring shall remain in place until the backfill has proceeded to a point where it can be safely removed. If, in the opinion of the Engineer, damage is likely to result from with- drawing shoring, it shall remain in place. Payment for all lumber left in place as ordered by the Engineer will be paid for at the price bid per MFBM for "Lumber Ordered Left in Trench," which payment shall cover the whole cost of furnishing all material, labor, equipment, tools and all other incidentals which may be necessary for placing the lumber in the trench. This payment shall not cover the cost of furnishing, placing and removing lumber used for bracing during construction, which need not remain in place upon completion of the backfill. Payment for lumber used as temporary bracing shall be included in the price bid per cubic yard for "Class B Trench Excavation." Payment for trench excavation in rock, including granular bedding, backfill and surplus disposal shall be made at the price bid per cubic yard as for "Class A Trench Excavation." Payment shall cover the whole cost of fur- nishing all equipment, labor, tools, materials and all other incidentals which may be necessary for completing the excavation. It shall cover the whole cost of rerouting all storm water or sanitary sewage flows, of protect- ing adjacent improvements, maintaining temporary macadam or gravel surfaces in satisfactory and safe condition for use by traffic until permanent pavement restoration is carried out, and of cleaning up the site. Payment for Class A trench excavation shall be for the volume calculated on the basis of the payline width of the trench, as herein specified for the various sizes of pipe sewers, the actual depth of rock removed or the depth from the upper rock surface to an elevation 6 inches below the required bottom of the pipe, whichever is the lesser, and the actual length of rock removed, up to the distance between centers of manholes. Payment for Class C concrete is covered in Section II, paragraph 6. Payment for Class B trench excavation, including backfill and surplus disposal, shall be made at the price bid per cubic yard for "Class B Trench Excavation" (including backfill and surplus disposal) . Payment shall cover the whole cost of furnishing all equipment, labor, tools, materials and all other incidentals which may be necessary for carrying out the necessary II-13 excavation, pumping and fluming, and taking care of dry and storm water flows, protecting adjacent improvements, backfilling, including tamping of the backfill as herein specified, maintaining temporary macadam or gravel surface in satis- factory safe condition for use by traffic until the permanent pavement restoration is carried out, disposing of the surplus excavated materials, removing any exist- ing sewers, and cleaning up of the site, including the furnishing, placing and removing of all sheeting and bracing which may be necessary during construction, but which is not ordered left in place and which is removed as the backfill is being carried out. Payment for Class B trench excavation shall be for the volume calculated on the basis of the payline width of the trench as herein specified for the various sizes of pipe sewers, the actual depth of Class B material removed, or the depth from the surface to the pipe flowline, whichever is lesser, and the length between centers of manholes. Payline widths for trench excavation for pipe which are to be used in calculating the volume of excavation performed under this Contract are as follows: Size of Sewer in Inches Pauline Width of Trench 8 - 12 2 feet - 4 inches 15 2 feet - 8 inches 18 2 feet - 11 inches 21 3 feet - 3 inches 24 3 feet - 6 inches 27 3 feet - 9 inches 30 4 feet - 1 inch 36 4 feet - 8 inches 14. STANKS OR SHORT TUNNELS: The gravity sewers may be constructed in stanks or short tunnels where requested by the Contractor and approved by the Engineer. The top of the tunneled length shall slope upwards to each entrance to permit adequate backfilling. The tunneled portions shall be sufficiently large to allow adequate working room at the sides and 'above the pipe to be installed. The tunnel bottom shall be shaped as nearly as practicable to the bottom of the pipe with provision for pipe bells. A bedding of crushed limestone and screenings shall be placed to fill any irregularities in shaping and to ensure a uniform continuous bearing for the pipe barrel at the. required elevation without load on the pipe bells. After firmly bed- ding and jointing the pipe, the crushed limestone and screenings shall be solidly packed around the pipe to the level of the top of the pipe. The an Aek remaining space above the top of the pipe shall be packed solidly with tamped earth free from debris, rocks, lumps or organic matter or, at the II-14 election of the Contractor, with tamped limestone screenings or compacted sand-cement mix. The Contractor shall carry out the work of stanking in a safe, prudent manner to avoid endangering human life or property. No separate payment for the construction of the gravity sewer in stanks or short tunnels shall be made. Payment for such stanks or short tunnels shall be considered as included in the price bid for "Class B Trench Excava- tion." 15. INSTALLATION OF VITRIFIED CLAY SEWER PIPE: Each pipe shall be set on end and rung before laying and any pipe found to be cracked or damaged shall be plainly marked in such a manner that the marking will not rub or wash off, and shall subsequently be removed from the site. Pipe shall be laid with the bell or socket uphill to the line and grade given by the Engineer on a prepared subgrade excavated and shaped as herein- before described. The prepared subgrade shall be kept free from water during the laying of the pipe. Line and grade shall be maintained by the use of no less than three batter boards set at 25-foot intervals and a top line. Except by special permission of the Engineer, no pipe shall be laid except in the presence of an inspector. Each pipe as laid shall be plumbed for line with a plumb bob, and graded with a grade stick for elevation. The accuracy of the finished line and grade of the pipe shall be. obtained in the prepara- tion of the subgrade. As the work progresses, the Interior of the sewer shall be cleaned of all dirt or debris of any description. Pipe shall be .laid through line manholes, and the upper half removed after the invert is completed, unless half-pipe is used. Vitrified clay pipe shall be so handled and stored that the ,jointing material will not be deformed or damaged. The joints shall be connected by first brushing the proper lubricant sealer on the clean mating surfaces as recommended by the pipe manufacturer. The spigot end shall be centered IM on grade into the bell end of the downstream pipe and shoved "home." The pipes shall be joined not later than five minutes after the application of the lubricant sealer. an All sewer pipe shall be laid and handled so that the allowable leakage shall not be exceeded as measured by the tests hereinafter described. All extraneous material shall be removed from the completed sewer pipes and manholes before they are accepted by the City. II-15 All vitrified clay pipe will be measured and paid for as such except where it is noted on the Plans that the pipe is to be included with the lump sum bid for a structure. Each size of pipe shall be measured and paid for at the corresponding unit price bid for each particular size and type of pipe installed. The length of pipe shall be the horizontal distance between the centers of manholes as measured along the alignment of the pipe. The unit prices for vitrified clay pipe of the various sizes shall include all material, labor and equipment necessary to install and test the pipe, complete in place, in accordance with the Plans and specifications, including connections to existing pipe stubs or sewers. MM 16. CONCRETE ENCASEMENT: The pipe shall be encased where shown on the Plans or where directed by the Engineer with Class B concrete of the dimensions shown on the detail on Sheet 10. The concrete may be placed against the undisturbed earth sides and bottom of the trench. Side forms may be used if necessary and if approved by the Engineer. Horizontal joints will not be permitted in unrein- forced encasement. Pipe shall be supported and held in place before and during placing of concrete. The -trench shall be kept dry and free of wafer .iintil ,the concrete has set and can not be damaged by water. Backfill above the top of encasement to a level one foot -above the top of pipe shall be carefully compacted select job-excavated material. This compacted backfill below a level one foot above the pipe shall not be placed until 12 hours after the concrete encasement has been completed. Class B concrete for encasement, required where shown on the Plans or as directed by the Engineer, shall be paid for at the price bid per cubic yard for "Class B Concrete," which payment shall cover the whole cost of furnishing all materials, labor, equipment, tools, and all other incidentals which may be necessary for furnishing and placing the Class B concrete. The volume to be paid for encasement under this item shall be as follows: Nominal Size Cubic Yards of Class B Concrete of Sewer in Encasement per Lineal Foot of Sewer (inches) 8 0.10 10 0.11 11 0.12 15 0.1.4 18 0.16 21 0.17 24 0.18 27 0.22 WE 30 0.25 36 0.30 an TI-16 ME 17. PIPE SEWER IN TUNNEL: Eight-inch ductile iron pipe shall be installed in tunnel where Lateral B-1, Sub-Trunk B, crosses Dunklin Boulevard (Old State Highway SO) . Either manual tunneling or mechanical boring may be used at the option of the Con- tractor. The Contractor shall, in addition to this specification, conform to the direction of the State Highway Department since the sewer is built in the highway right-of-way. a. Manual Tunneling. (1) Excavation. The Contractor shall carry out the work of tunneling and supporting the tunnel face, roof, walls and floor so that there will be no fall or flow or caving or heaving of earth in the tunnel excavation, nor any other cause for endangering human life or any public or private property above or adjacent to the tunnel. If there should be any fall or movement of earth into the tunnel at any time, the Contractor shall proceed with the work with all necessary precautions and in such a manner as to ensure the safety of life and all utilities and public and private property above and adjacent to the tunnel. The Contractor shall make all excavations necessary for the construc- tion of the sewer in tunnel; shall furnish, place and maintain all sheeting, bracing, lining or casing required to support the tunnel floor, roof, sides, and face until the pipe laying is complete. All liners shall remain in place. Methods of earth removal and liner installation are optional with the Contractor. Care shall be used in trimming the surfaces of the excavated section and in placing the liners or sheeting and bracing, so that the required minimum 2-inch clearance between the outside of the pipe and the final position of the liners, sheeting and bracing in the tunnel will be attained without any deviation in sewer alignment. Sheeting or lining must be placed and held tightly against the trimmed earth surface so that there will be no voids between the earth and the lining or sheeting placed against it. If timber is used for bracing, invert struts shall be placed at required intervals in such manner that the pipe and its bedding will be supported entirely by the original earth .floor of the tunnel and not on timber lining or bracing. All excavated material not required for backfilling shall be removed from the site and disposed of by the Contractor at his own expense. Tunnel liner may be a full circular lining or a partial lining as per- mitted ,by the Missouri State Highway Department. (2) Pipe Laying. The tunnel bottom shall be shaped as nearly as practical to the shape of the pipe. A bedding of crushed rock or grout shall be placed to fill any irregularities in shaping and to ensure a uni- form continuous bearing for the pipe barrel at the required elevations. After firmly bedding and jointing the pipe, the crushed rock or grout shall be solidly packed around the pipe to the level of the top of the pipe. The remaining space above the top of the pipe shall be packed solidly with tamped earth free from debris, rocks, lumps, or organic matter, or, at the election of the Contractor, with tamped crushed rock or compacted sand- cement mix approved by the Engineer. II-17 b. Machine Tunneling. (1), Excavation. The tunneling may be done by boring and jading a pipe liner and inserting the carrier pipe under the road as permitted by the Highway Department. The Contractor shall ascertain and conform to all requirements and regulations of the owner of the utilities, highway, or other facilities under which the liner pipe is being installed by jacking. The Contractor shall retain full responsibility for the adequacy of his jacking operations, equipment, and materials. The Contractor shall conduct the work in such a manner as to safeguard the property above and adjacent to the work, and to minimize interference with traffic or other operations at or near the work. The Contractor shall do no blasting within limits of the jacked liner. In excavating from within the pit or from within the liner, extreme care shall be taken to avoid loss of material outside of the bore limits. If cavities result between the actual surfaces of excavation and the tunnel lining, whether from avoidable or unavoidable causes, they shall be completely filled with a uniform sand-cement grout, consisting of one part portland cement and seven parts sand, placed under pressure through grout holes in the steel liner plates. The grout holes shall be so spaced and the grout be placed in such sequence as to ensure completely filling the cavities and carrying the load uniformly from the undisturbed material to the tunnel lining. Excavation shall precede the jacked liner only to such distance as will maintain a'safe condition for the work and for the property and its use above or adjacent to the work, and only to such diameter as will permit advancing the liner without voids or excessive overdig clearance between the outside of the jacked liner and the excavated surfaces. Suitable lubri- cants may be used to reduce jacking friction. Drainage shall be adequate to keep the bottom of the jacking pit and end of the bore dry and firm. (2) Pipe Laying. When the liner is of such size that the carrier pipe cannot be installed, jointed and bedded from within the liner, the carrier pipe shall be ductile iron mechanical joint pipe. The mechanical joints between ductile iron pipe lengths shall be made carefully in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. After placing the assem- bled pipe in the bore hole, the ends shall be blocked to secure the proper flowline elevations at each end and to ensure grout placing at the bottom and sides of the pipe. The spaces between the surface of the liner and the outside of the pipe shall be filled solidly with mortar placed under mechanical pressure. Particular attention shall be given to ensuring that the pipe will be solidly supported by mortar at its bottom and sides. The method of injec- tion under mechanical pressure shall be approved by the Engineer. Mortar shall consist of one volume portland cement and nine volumes of dry sand with a volume of water sufficient to ensure flow for proper placing and to am off minimize shrinkage. Dry mortar shall consist of the same proportions of 11-18 sand and cement. Materials shall be uniformly mixed, and placed by inserting the grout pipe to its greatest required distance to ensure filling all spaces, and then gradually withdrawing the pipe as filling proceeds. When the liner is of such size that all work of bedding, placing, jointing, and backfilling can be done within the liner, and the space between the liner and the outside of the carrier pipe is sufficient to allow adequate working room at the sides and above the carrier pipe, the carrier pipe shall be placed in the liner as described in Section 17a (2) "Pipe Laying." C. Payment. Payment for the highway coossing constructed in tunnel shall be made at the lump sum bid for the crossing, and shall be regarded as full compensation for the costs of the shafts, headings, excavation, liner plates or timbering, grouting, drainage, lighting, cradling, pipe in place, bedding, backfilling, providing any necessary concrete collars, and any additional costs necessary to complete the tunnel crossing. 18. MANHOLE CONSTRUCTION: Manholes shall be built of brick to the dimensions and at the loca- tions as shown on the Plans or as directed by the Engineer, as rapidly as the construction of the sewer will permit. All bricks in each course shall be headers and break joints with those-in the adjoining course. Each brick shall have full mortar joints on the bottom and sides, which shall be formed at one operation by placing sufficient mortar on the bed and forcing the brick into it. Horizontal joints shall not exceed 3/8 inch and vertical joints on the inside of the manholes shall not exceed 1/4 inch. The mortar for the brick work of the manholes shall be made of one part of portland cement and three parts of sand, complying with the fine aggregate specifications hereinbefore described. The sand and cement shall be thoroughly mixed dry, and the necessary quantity of clean water shall be added so as to produce a stiff mortar of the proper consistency, which mix shall be thoroughly worked with proper tools. All joints on the inside of the manholes are to be carefully rubbed full and struck as the manhole is built up. Upon completion of each manhole, all waste mortar and debris shall be immediately removed from the bottom and the invert shaped to the dimensions shown- on the Plans and all bottom joints struck or pointed. The jointing of the brick work shall be such that the manhole will be watertight so that no ground-water infiltration through the manhole joints will occur. The outside of the manhole shall be covered with a mortar plaster coat 1/2 inch thick. A single rowlock shall be turned over all incoming and outgoing pipes. II-19 The inverts of all manholes located at changes in alignment of the sewer shall be shaped to the incoming and outgoing pipes and smoothly curved from pipe to pipe to the top of invert at springline. On line manholes, pipe shall be laid through the manhole and the upper half removed after the invert has been completed. Half pipe may be used. As alternates, precast manholes or manholes built of poured in place Glass A concrete may be used. Joints of precast manhole sections shall be made utilizing a rubber gasket. Joints shall be self-centering. The gasket shall be the sole element utilized in sealing the joint. Plans for concrete manholes must be approved by the Engineer. Forms may be of steel or clean lumber, assuring a smooth finished surface. do During the construction of each manhole, cast-iron steps conforming to the specifications for cast-iron manhole steps hereinbefore described, shall be set in place on the inside of the manhole, at the spacing shown on the Plans. The top stop shall not be more than 2 feet below the top of the manhole. The ends of the steps shall be firmly built in the wall, allowing the steps to project S inches from the inside of the manhole. Manholes shall be covered with standard cast-iron frames and covers of the dimensions and materials herein specified. Frames shall be set in place and closed with covers. All manholes will be measured and paid for as manholes of .the appro- priate depth as bid in the Proposal. The depth of manholes shall be Adak measured from the invert of the sewer to the top of the cast-iron frame. Payment for all work included in this paragraph shall be: included in the unit price for the various depth manholes and shall include all necessary labor, material and equipment for constructing the manholes, including additional excavation beyond the trench payline width and depth, concrete base, cast-iron frame and cover, backfilling, diversion of sewage if required, and all other work necessary to construct the manhole in place. Outside drops shall be constructed as shown on the Plans. Payment will be made for completed outside drops as an addition to the payment made for the completed manhole. Payment will be made for each drop at the lump sum bid price for each, and shall include all costs of excava- tion, lumber left in trench, concrete or brick masonry, drop pipe, pipe Elbow, jointing, and the additional cost of the pipe junction on the sewer and its concrete encasement. 19. STUBS IN MANHOLES: There is shown on the Plans an approximate location of stubs at manholes to be provided for future connections. The Engineer may change the location of such stubs and may order additional stubs installed if II-20 ISM MEN= the improvements along the line of the work made such changes or additions necessary. The stubs shall be closed with a clay or concrete stopper or cap demented in place. The space in the socket above the cap shall be filled with wet sand or clay and then covered with a thin coating of mortar so the cap is sealed but can be readily removed. Payment for furnishing the stubs, including stoppers cemented in place, or bulkheads in place, will be made at the price bid per "Pipe Stub in Manhole" of the size used. This payment shall cover the whole cost of constructing, complete in place, the pipe stub and stopper where ordered. 20. TRENCH BACKFILL: The backfilling of the completed pipe sewers shall commence immedi- ately upon the completion of the sewer, with care being taken that the operation of backfilling does not disturb the pipe joints. The initial backfill over and around pipe sewers to the undisturbed sides of the trench shall be placed in 6-inch layers which shall be thoroughly hand- tamped to an elevation not less than one foot above the extrados of the pipe. The material used for this initial backfilling shall be the excavated natural soil free from all other foreign substances such as debris, rocks, cinders, ashes, lumps or organic matter. No walking over the completed pipe sewer will be allowed until the backfill has been carried to at least one foot above the top of the sewer. In lieu of tamping the backfill, the Contractor may, at his own option and at his expense, complete the backfill to one foot above the top of the sewer with crushed rock. Where the Contractor excavates below the planned subgrade for pipe lines, the over-excavation shall be backfilled with granular material well compacted in 6-inch layers. Only granular material placed in over- excavation authorized by the Engineer will be measured and paid for at the price bid per cubic yard for "Crushed Rock for Subgrade Replacement," which payment shall cover the whole cost of furnishing all materials, labor, equipment, tools and other incidentals necessary to furnish and AM place the granular material. The volume to be paid for under this item shall be limited to the volume computed within the payline widths and for the depths and lengths as ordered by the Engineer. Crushed rock placed in over-excavation not authorized by the Engineer shall be ® included in the cost of "Class B Trench Excavation." Backfilling shall be completed to ensure restoration of the ground surface to its original condition. Backfill in open fields may be completed without further compaction above one foot over the extrados, or without flushing. The fill shall be mounded over the trench to allow for future settlement. 0 II-21 i Backfill of the trenches crossing beneath concrete, asphaltic concrete or bituminous macadam pavement shall be made with granular materials. Payment for granular fill will be made at the bid price per cubic yard for "Granular Backfill" for the volume in place after final compaction. The volume of granular fill used beneath pavements which are removed and replaced shall be computed from the actual length of the trench filled, the payline width and the depth equal to the average distance from road subgrade elevation to one foot above the top of pipe. All surplus excavated material which is not usable for backfill shall be hauled from the work site. The cost of all work included in this paragraph shall be included with the cost of the excavation requiring the backfilling or filling operation, except as noted above. 21. LEAKAGE TESTS FOR GRAVITY SEWERS: Upon completion of a section of the sewer, the Contractor shall de-water it and conduct a satisfactory test to measure the infiltration for at least two hours. The amount of infiltration, including manholes, Y-branches, and connections shall not exceed 500 gallons per inch-diameter per mile of sewer per 24 hours. The Contractor shall be responsible for the satisfactory watertightness of the entire section of sewer and shall satisfactorily repair all joints or other locations that are not suffi- ciently watertight. For making the infiltration tests, underdrains, if used, shall be plugged and other ground-water drainage shall be stopped to permit the ground water to return to its normal level insofar as practicable. Allow- ance ,shall be made for water which may enter the sewer through pipe connections and inlets during the infiltration test. As required, suitable bulkheads shall be installed to permit the test of the sewer. Where the ground-water level is less than one foot above the top of the pipe at its upper end, the sewers shall be subjected to an internal pressure by plugging the pipe at the lower end and then filling the pipelines and manholes with clean water to a height of 2 feet above the top of the sewer at its upper end. No section of completed sewer shall be tested with an internal pressure of over 10 feet. The rate of leakage from the sewers shall be determined by measuring the amount of water required to maintain the level 2 feet above the top of the pipe for a period of at least 2 hours, commencing one hour after the pipeline filling is completed. Leakage from the sewers under test shall not exceed the requirements for leakage into sewers as hereinbefore specified. II-22 I The Contractor shall construct such weirs or other means of measure- ments as may be required, shall furnish water and shall do all necessary pumping to enable the tests to be properly made. Should the sections under test fail to meet the requirements,q ts, the Contractor shall do all work of locating and repairing leaks and retesting as the Engineer may require without additional compensation. Payment for all work included in this section shall be included in the payment for pipe in place as herein specified.
