The Contractor's responsibility for maintenance of barricades, signs, and lights shall not cease until the days of issuance to Contractor of City's certificate of acceptance of the project. Rules and regulations of local, state and Federal authorities regarding safety provisions shall be observed. OSHA's regulations for excavations, trenching, and shoring shall be included in the Special Specifications'. IV. PROTECTION OF EXISTING UNDERGROUND UTILITIES: The Contractor shall proceed with caution in*the excavation and preparation of the trench so that the exact location of underground structures, both known and unknown, may be'determined. If required, the Contractor shall excavate and locate existing underground utilities ahead of trench excavation in order that necessity for grade changes may be ascertained in advance. The Contractor shall be held responsible for the repair of such structures when broken or otherwise damaged because of carelessness on his part. Hand excavation shall be used where necessary. The Contractor shall notify local utilities whenever working near gas mains or services or near electrical or telephone cables or when the presence of these utilities is suspected in the area of construction. V. EXCAVATION AND TRENCHING In order to obtain a true, even grade, the trench shall be fine -graded. The material for fine grading shall be free of rocks, roots, grass or any other debris. The depth of the fine grading material shall not exceed three (3) inches. Where the trench is excavated in excess of three (3) inches below grade, the material shall be compacted to 95% Proctor Density or shall be replaced with bedding material. If the material being excavated is rock or other unyielding material, it shall be removed to a depth of three (3) inches below grade and replaced with bedding material to grade.The grade shall be such that the pipe will 4 a k u rest firmly on the bedding material throughout the entire length of the pipe cylinder. The minimum width of the trench shall be the outside diameter of the pipe plus twelve (12)`inches and the maximum width shall be the outside diameter of the pipe plus eighteen (18) inches. The trench shall be cut so that the maximum horizontal offset of the trench walls from the bottom to the top of the trench (undercutting) shall be six (6) inches. Bell holes of ample dimensions shall be dug at each joint to permit the proper jointing of the pipe and to permit the bottom of the pipe to rest firmly on the bottom of the trench throughout the entire length of the pipe cylinder. Trench digging machinery may used to make the trench excavation except in places where its operation would cause damage to trees, buildings, telegraph lines or other existing structures either above or below ground, in such instances hand methods shall be employed to excavate the trench at no additional cost to the owner. Where necessary to prevent caving, the trench shall be adequately braced and shored. The unit price bid per linear foot of pipe shall include the cost of furnishing, installing, and removing the bracing and shoring. The Contractor shall take all necessary precautions for protecting paved streets and drives from being damaged by the trenching and backfilling equipment. j' All excavated material shall be placed in a manner that will not endanger the work or damage existing structures. There will be no classification of the excavated materials and the term excavation shall include all materials encountered in excavating the rr trench. VI. PIPE INSTALLATION A. General: All pipe and accessories shall be handled, laid, Jointed, tested for defects and leakage and chlorinated in the manner herein specified. Inspection: The pipe, fittings, valves, and accessories shall be inspected upon delivery and during the progress of the work and any material found to be defective will be rejected by the engineer and the contractor shall remove and replace such defective material. k C. Responsibility for Materials: The Contractor shall be responsible r, for all material furnished by him and he shall replace at his own expense all such material that is found to be defective in manufacture or has become damaged in handling after delivery. D. Handling Pipe and Accessories: All pipe, fittings, valves, and other accessories shall, unless otherwise directed, be unloaded at the r. 5 point of delivery, hauled to and distributed at the site of the work by the Contractor. In loading and unloading they shall be lifted by hoists or slid or rolled on skidways in such a manner as to avoid shock or damage to the materials.- Under no circumstances shall they be dropped. Pipe handled on skids shall not be skidded or rolled against pipe already on the ground. In distributing the material at the site of the work, each piece shall be unloaded opposite or near the place where it is to be laid in the trench. Coated and wrapped pipe shall be handled in such manner that a minimum amount of,,damage to the coating will result. Damaged coating shall be repaired.in a manner satisfactory to the Engineer. Pipe shall be placed on the site of the work parallel with the trench alignment and pipe with bell ends shall be placed with the bell ends facing in the direction in which the work will proceed. The pipe, fittings, and accessories shall be placed along the site in such a manner as to be kept as free as possible from dirt, sand,'mud, and other foreign matter. E. Alignment and Grade: All pipe shall be laid to the alignment as established on the ground by the Engineer. Where grade is being maintained, as shown on the plans, the use of batter board or laser beam will be required to fine grade the trench. Whenever it is necessary to deflect pipe from a straight line either in a vertical or horizontal plane to avoid obstructions, to plumb valves or where vertical or horizontal curves are shown or permitted, the degree of deflection recommended by the manufacturer of the particular kind of pipe being laid and the degree of deflection shall be approved by the Engineer. Field cuts on concrete pipe shall be made at all points where, in the opinion of the Engineer, it is necessary to preserve alignment or proper stationing for field connections. Proper care shall be taken to preserve the interior and exterior linings. After the spiral winding has been exposed, the winding shall be tack welded before being cut. In cutting the spiral winding sufficient length shall be allowed to permit a later winding of at least one-half turn on the bell or spigot ring. Where steel cylinder pipe is cut, the work shall be done in such a way , as to allow a snug fit with the bell or spigot ring. A continuous weld shall be run on both the inside and the outside of the ring. The free end of the spiral shall then be wrapped around the ring and its end shall be welded to the ring by running a weld along each side of the rod for a distance of at least six inches. The entire cutting operation shall be done under the direction of a representative of the pipe manufacturer. Whenever the deflection in a joint exceeds the maximum deflection recommended by the manufacturer, the Engineer may require that the joint be welded. Joints on pipe installed in encasement pipe shall be tack w welded or completely welded. F. Manner of -Handling Pipe and Accessories into Trench: After the trench grade has been completed, all bell holes dug and the grade 6 r inspected, the pipes and accessories may be placed in the trench. All pipe, fittings, and valves shall be carefully lowered into the trench piece by piece by means of derricks, ropes, or other suitable tools or equipment, in such a manner as to prevent damage to the material in any way. Under no circumstance shall pipe or accessories be dropped or dumped into the trench. G. Cleaning and Inspection: Before lowering into the trench, the pipe shall be again inspected for defects and cast iron pipe while suspended shall be lightly hammered to detect cracks. Any defective, damaged, or unsound pipe or other incidental materials shall be rejected. All foreign matter or dirt shall be removed from the inside of the pipe, bells, spigots, or parts of the pipe used in forming the joint 'before the pipe is lowered into the trench; and it shall be kept clean by approved means during and after laying. The open end of the pipe in the trench shall be plugged when pipe is not being laid. H. Laving and Jointing Concrete Pressure Pipe: Just before making the joint, the gasket and the inside surface of the bell shall be lubricated with film of soft vegetable soap compound (flax soap) to facilitate telescoping the joint. The rubber gasket shall be stretched uniformly as it is placed in the spigot groove to insure a uniform volume of rubber around the circumference of the groove. Metal spacers of proper thickness shall be held on the inside shoulder of the bell to provide the proper space between abutting ends of 27 inch and larger pipe. The joint shall be telescoped by pulling' directly along the center line of the pipe so that the spigot enters squarely into the bell. After the spigot has been telescoped into the bell, the bell end of the pipe being laid shall be moved in accordance with the plans to secure proper grade and alignment. After the joint is in place, a thin metal feeler gauge shall be used to check the position of the rubber gasket around the circumference of the joint. After the spigot has been telescoped into the bell, the joint checked and found satisfactory, a burlap wrapper shall be placed around the pipe covering the joint. The burlap -type wrapper shall be hemmed at each edge to allow threading with a steel strap to securely fasten the wrapper around the pipe by means of a stretcher and sealer. The length shall be that required to encircle the pipe, leaving enough space between the ends at the top to allow the cement mortar to be poured. The entire joint shall be poured with cement mortar and rodded or agitated to eliminate voids and settlement. Any joint showing shrinkage or excessive cracking shall be cleaned and remade. In hot weather, additional measure may be required to obtain the best quality of joint, such as additional wet burlap, curing membrane, or immediate careful and well -controlled backfilling of the joint with damp earth. Where size permits, the inside joint recess shall be filled from the inside with mortar and finished off smooth with the inside of the pipe by hand troweling after the pipe has been backfilled. The inside joint recess on pipe smaller in diameter shall be filled by buttering the bell r F7 end with mortar immediately prior to placing the pipe together. After the joint is engaged, the interior of the smaller diameter pipe shall be swabbed to smooth and clean the joints. At'times when pipe laying is not in progress, the open ends of pipe shall'be closed by approved means, and no trench ,water shall be permitted to enter the pipe. I. wing and Jointing Ductile -Iron Pipe: The gasket seat in the socket, the rubber gasket and the plain end of the pipe to be laid should be wiped clean. After placing a length of pipe in the trench, the plain end of the pipe should be then aligned and started into the socket so that it is in contact with the gasket. Sufficient force then must be exerted on the entering pipe so that the plain end is moved past the gasket and makes contact with the base of the socket. The joint may be deflected but never to exceed manufacturer's recommendations. Unless otherwise directed, pipe shall be laid with direction of laying; and for lines on appreciable at the discretion of the Engineer, face up grade., bells facing in the slopes, bells shall, Cutting of pipe for inserting valves, fittings or closure pieces shall be done in a neat workmanlike manner without damage to the pipe or the cement lining. The jointing shall be completed for all pipe laid each day, in order not to leave open joints in the trench over night. At the times when pipe laying is not ,is progress, the open ends of pipe shall be closed by approved means,'and no trench water shall be permitted to enter the pipe. No pipe shall be laid in water, or,when the trench conditions or weather is unsuitable for such work, except,by permission of the Engineer. J. Laving and Jointing PVC Pipe: The trench bottom should be constructed to provide firm, stable, and uniform support for the full length of the pipe. Bell holes should be provided at each joint to permit proper joint assembly and pipe support. Any part of the trench bottom excavated below grade should be backfilled to grade and should be compacted as required to provide firm pipe support. ,When an unstable condition is encountered which will provide inadequate pipe support, additional trench depth should be excavated to a depth not less than three inches (3") below the pipe subgrade over the entire width of the trench and shall be replaced with granular material conforming to specifications for gravel for pipe embedment as stated herein. Such material shall be thoroughly compacted over the entire trench width to the grade established for the bottom of the pipe. Ledge rock, boulders, and large stones should be removed to provide four (4) inches of pipe cushion. K. Laying and Jointing Asbestos -Cement Pipe The pipe shall be lowered in the trench with the couplings and rings on the pipe and shall be placed with care.on the previously prepared trench 8 A bottom. The couplings shall be assembled as recommended by the manufacturer's recommendations. Joints made between asbestos -cement pipe and cast iron pipe or fittings shall be made by entering the special machine 3'3" pipe or machine adapter into standard cast iron bell. The joint shall then be finished in accordance with specifications herein for cast iron pipe fittings. When it is necessary to cut pipe, it shall be done with a cutting device approved by the Engineer, in such a manner as to make a clean even cut. No cutting with axe or chisel will be permitted. Proper implements, tools, and equipment should be used for placement of the pipe in the trench to prevent damage. Under no circumstances should the pipe or accessories be dropped into the trench. All foreign matter r or dirt should be removed from the pipe interior. Pipe joints should be assembled with care to the depth recommended by the manufacturer. VII. Backfillina All trenches and bell holes for all types of pipe, valves, and fittings regardless of the location shall be backfilled with selected backfill material free from rocks,boulders, or other unsuitable material. The backfill material shall be thoroughly compacted with mechanical or hand tamps to midpoint of the pipe. rshall In existing paved streets the backfill above the midpoint of the pipe be inches below compacted with mechanical or hand tamps to 7-1/2 existing paving. In areas where paved streets are not existing the backfill to a point twelve (12) inches above the pipe shall be placed by hand and shall be carefully selected material free of rocks, boulders, clods, organic material, or other debris and lightly compacted prior to placing remaining backfill. The balance of the backfill may be placed •- in the ditch by hand or by mechanical equipment. No backfill material r shall be dropped directly on exposed pipe. The backfill shall be consolidated by forcing water into the backfill at two (2) feet above the level of compacted material until the water level rises to within eighteen (18) inches of the natural ground surface. Care shall be taken not to flood the ditch or saturate the pipe embedment. The water shall be forced into the backfill at location not r more than ten (10) feet apart. �.. A. Maintenance of Backfilled Trench: After the trench has been backfilled in the above method, the right-of-way shall be cleared of all rocks larger than one and one-half (1-1/2) inches in diameter and leveled so that the surface will have the same slope and appearance as it possessed before the Contractor began work. All surplus material shall be loaded and wasted at the Contractor's expense, at a location approved by the Engineer. r i A 9 The above shall include all excavated materials and all rocks or hard lumps which still remain after blading the area back to the original ground grade. Furrows which tend to gather after blading shall be _removed, together with excavated material which has drifted or otherwise covered private property. As the construction work progresses, the contractor will be required to keep the jetting of the backfill and clean up just as close behind the pipe laying and backfilling as possible. Following the completion of the backfilling the Contractor shall maintain the street and trench surfaces, in a satisfactory manner until final completion and acceptance of the work. The maintenance to include blading from time to time as necessary, filling depressions caused by settlement, sprinkling to settle dust, brooming or flushing at the request of the Engineer and other work required to keep the streets and roads in satisfactory condition for traffic. The Contractor shall maintain and be responsible for all paving cuts until such time as City Forces shall repair cuts with asphalt. VIII. Setting Valves, Valve Boxes and Fittings Valves and fittings shall be set at the locations shown on the plans or at locations as established by the Engineer, and shall be"joined to the pipe in the manner heretofore specified for,,pipe installation. The valves and fittings shall be adequately blocked for thrust with concrete. Valves shall be set vertically and in concrete valve boxes. A. Underground and Overhead Utilities and Structures The approximate location of all known water mains, gas mains, storm sewers, and sanitary sewers are shown on the .plans. However, the consumer service lines from these utilities are not known. The Contractor will be required to locate all utility lines, including customer service lines, far enough in advance of the trenching to make proper provisions for protecting the lines and to allow for any deviations that may be required from the established lines and grades. The Contractor will not be allowed to disrupt the service on any utility lines except customer service lines, which may be taken out of service for short period of time provided the Contractor obtains permission from the Engineer and from the owner of the premises being served by the utility. The Contractor shall immediately notify the proper utility company of any damage to utility lines in order that service may be established with the least possible delay. Any damage to existing lines and the . repair of customer lines which are authorized to be cut shall be at his own expense, and as directed by an official representative of the utility company involved. All utility lines shall be properly supported to prevent settlement or damage to the line both during and after construction. The cost of 10 supporting utility lines shall be included in the unit price bid per foot of pipe. Any permanent relocation of existing utility lines shall be done by the proper utility company without expense to the Contractor. Where pipes, conduits, or concrete curbs or gutters are encountered, the cost of tunnelling shall be included as a part of the cost of the pipe line. IX. Removina Pavement A. keneral: Wherever it is necessary to make cuts in existing pavements, sidewalks, driveways, or curbs and gutters, the cuts shall be made in such a'manner as to cause the least possible damage to adjoining surfaces. B. Removal of Asphalt Paving: In removing asphalt pavement, the asphalt surface shall be cut along each side of the trench ahead of the trenching machine and the surfacing and base removed with the trenching machine as the trench is excavated. The width of surface removed by the Contractor is not to exceed the outside diameter of the pipe plus thirty-six (36") inches. Any areas removed or damaged in excess of the above widths will be charged against the Contractor's estimate at the estimated cost per square foot as determined by paving engineer for payment to the City for replacing the excessive width. No separate payment will be made for cutting and removing asphalt paving and caliche base, the cost of this work shall be included as a part of the cost of the pipe line complete in place. C. Removal of Concrete Paving: Removal of any sidewalks, concrete pavement, concrete base, concrete curbs and gutters (where allowed) shall be made by cutting the concrete to a straight line on each side of the trench and removing the concrete ahead of the trenching. Normally, tunnelling will be required under curb and gutters. The width of surface removed by the Contractor of concrete paving is not to exceed the outside diameter of the pipe plus thirty-six (36") inches. Any areas removed or damaged in excess of the above widths will be charged against the Contractor's estimate at the estimated cost per square foot as payment to the City for replacing the excessive width. Care shall be taken to preserve any reinforcement encountered as well as possible. Cutting of steel reinforcement will be allowed only at the approximate center of the pavement cut. Payment for removal of concrete paving shall be included in the unit price bid per foot of pipe installed. X. Concrete Cradling and Blocking Where concrete cradling is used, the concrete shall conform to the r., concrete specifications. Before placing the concrete, all loose earth shall be removed from the trench. The concrete shall be placed in the trench by the use of chutes extending to within three (3) feet of the bottom of the trench and shall i be deposited uniformly on each side of the pipe in such a manner as not ,.. 11 to disturb the grade and alignment of the pipe. The concrete shall be, of such consistency that is will flow without separation of the aggregates. At locations shown on the plans or as directed by the engineer, the contractor will be required to cradle the pipe or block the fittings. XI. Anchorage of Bends and Plugs. Etc. Concrete shall be used for blocking the pipe, plugs, and fittings and shall conform to the concrete specifications. The blocking shall be placed, as directed by the engineer, between solid ground and the fitting to be anchored: the area of bearing on pipe and on the ground in each instance shall be that required by the engineer. The blocking shall be so placed that the pipe and fitting joints will be assessable for repair. The soil bearing value for thrust backing shall be recommended by the pipe manufacturer, and in the absence of such recommendation, the allowable bearing value shall not exceed 3000 lbs. per square foot. XII. Hydrostatic Tests A. Pressure During Test: After the pipe has been laid, the line shall be subjected to a hydrostatic pressure test and leakage test. The lines shall be tested at 100 p. s. i. pressure. B. Duration of Pressure Test: The duration of each pressure test shall be as directed by the engineer but shall not exceed four, (4) hours. C. Procedure: Each Ivalved section of pipe shall.be slowly filled with water at the specified test pressure measured at the point of lowest elevation. Pressure shall be applied and maintained,by means of a pump connected to the pipe in a satisfactory manner. The pump, pipe. connection, and all necessary apparatus except meters shall be _furnished by the contractor, and the contractor shall furnish all necessary labor for connecting the pump, meter, and gages. The water for filling and making tests on these mains may be obtained at a location designated by the engineer. No charge will be made for water used for this purpose. As the line is being filled and before applying the test pressure, all air shall be expelled from the pipe. To accomplish this, taps shall be made, if necessary, at points of highest elevation." After the test, the taps shall be tightly plugged. During the time the test pressure is on the pipe, the line shall be carefully checked at regular intervals for breaks or leaks. Any joints showing appreciable leaks shall be repaired and any cracked or defective pipes or fittings shall be removed and replaced with sound material in the manner provided and the test shall be repeated until satisfactory results are obtained. 12 a D. Leakage -Test: After all defects have been satisfactorily repaired and all visible leaks stopped, a leakage test shall be made on each valved section of the lines to determine the quantity of water lost by leakage. The contractor shall furnish all labor, material, and equipment (except meters) required for making the test. The leakage shall be determined by measuring the quantity of water supplied to each valved section of the lines, during the test period, when the various sections of the lines are under pressure. No pipe installation' will be r accepted until or unless the leakage as determined by above test is less 1, than the amount set forth below. F Leakage in U. S. Gallons per 24 hours per 1000 feet of pipe per inch of diameter of pipe lengths and pressures stipulated. Pressures Lbs. Per Sq.

XIII. Sterilization of Pipe Lines The contractor shall furnish all labor, equipment and material, except chlorine, necessary for the chlorination of the new pipe lines which shall be sterilized before being placed in service. The lines shall be sterilized by the application of the chlorinating agent. The chlorinating agent may be a liquid chlorine, liquid chlorine gas -water mixture, or a calcium hypochlorite solution, which shall be fed into the lines through a suitable solution -feed device, or other methods approved by the engineer. The chlorinating agent shall be applied at or near the point from which the line is being filled, and through a corporation stop or other approved connection inserted in the horizontal axis of the newly laid pipe. The water being used to fill the line shall be controlled to flow into the section to be sterilized very slowly, and the rate of application of the chlorinating agent shall be in such proportion of water entering the pipe that the chlorine dose applied to the water entering the line shall be at least 50 parts per million. The treated water shall be retained in the pipe lines for a period of not less than twenty-four (24) hours. Samples shall be taken from the line and will be tested for r bacteriologic growth by the Texas Department of Health Laboratory. Samples will be taken twice in a forty-eight (48) hour period not less than twenty-four (24) hours apart. �. The sampling riser shall be located at a location farthest from the point of chlorination. The riser shall be above ground and equipped with a faucet for control of flow during sampling. r ,,, 13 XIV.
