SUPPLEMENTAL PIPE TESTING Supplemental testing of the pipe that is offered by the Contactor will be performed by an Independent Testing Organization selected by the City of Fort Worth. This testing is not meant to be comprehensive,but will suffice only for producing data that will allow the Engineer to verify that the manufacturer's data are valid and appropriate for the project. This testing will be performed only on the pipe material that is provided by the Contractor to whom the project is to be awarded. All supplemental testing will be accomplished using ASTM, AWWA and/or other standardized procedures that are well established and well known to the industry. 1. SAMPLING Addendum No. 2 5 12/21/04 a. The Contractor shall deliver the pipe material to the Independent Testing Organization at a time and in the amounts determined by the City of Fort Worth. The required number of pipe joints, pipe size and testing method will depend upon the pipe material. The Independent Testing Organization will develop these requirements for the pipe that is included in the bid that the City of Fort Worth selects. It is the responsibility of the Contractor, via the pipe manufacturer, to deliver its pipe samples in a form appropriate for the specific tests that are designated for the class that corresponds to their material. In addition,pipe diameters, wall thicknesses and other particulars must conform to specifications. b. Pipe to be tested by the independent testing organization can either be selected from a group of pipe at the manufacturer's facility or it can be manufactured especially for this testing. The pipe to be tested must have come from the same production line,manufacturing facility, supply of raw materials, the environmental conditions during manufacture and storage, the pipe transportation methods, and quality control procedures. c. The Engineer will contact the pipe manufacturers following the contract award to affirm an acceptable means to collect and deliver the samples of pipe. d. The minimum quantity of pipe needed for testing will be specified by the Independent Testing Organization. The total quantity of pipe required will include at least two extra pipe joints that the City of Fort Worth can use for retesting at its discretion. Any pipe not used for testing will be the property of the City of Fort Worth. At his own cost,the Contractor can supply treble the amount of pipe that is required to prepare for the possibility that a second round of testing will be agreed to by the City and the Contractor—see section 4e below. e. At no time can the pipe composition or pipe design be changed after the pipe is delivered to testing facility unless specifically authorized by the City of Fort Worth. 2. PIPE MATERIALS TESTS a. The mechanical and chemical nature of the various different types of pipe materials dictate that a different set of tests be performed for each class of materials. The general scope of the testing will be the same for all pipe classes. It is anticipated that the pipe material to be tested will be either reinforced concrete pipe, reinforced concrete cylinder pipe or fiberglass pipe. b. The testing of reinforced concrete pipe will be generally governed by ASTM C76, and will include two specific tests that are described in ASTM C497. These are: (1)the external load crushing test by the three edge bearing test method, and (2)the hydrostatic test. The testing of reinforced concrete cylinder pipe will similarly utilize the external load crushing test by the three edge bearing test method, and the hydrostatic test in accord with ASTM C497. The testing of fiberglass reinforced pipe will be generally governed by ASTM D3262, and will include two specific tests. These are: Addendum No. 2 6 12/21/04 !I I (1) the strength test in ASTM D2412, and(2) the chemical resistance test in ASTM D3681. c. With one exception, the testing is to conform to the standards. The one exception is that the long term test for fiberglass materials, ASTM D3681 which requires a 10,000 hour result,is to be planned such that sufficient data for comparison with the manufacturer's data will be acquired within 1,000 hours. 3. RESULTS a. The results obtained by the Independent Testing Laboratory shall be recorded and reported by them as specified in the standard test procedures, and in any additional forms requested by the City and its Consultants to enable them to better assess the viability of the particular pipe material that has been offered by the Contractor. b. The assessment of the data obtained by the Independent Testing Laboratory will be made in conjunction with an examination of any and all of the data provided by the Contractor—see Section B 4 Cl. The extent to which the Contractor's data will be used will be at the discretion of the Engineer 4. ACCEPTANCE/REJECTION a. If, in the City of Fort Worth's opinion, the totality of the testing(i.e., the manufacturer's data and the supplemental testing data) has fully confirmed that the strength, durability and resistance of the pipe will be acceptable, the pipe will be approved, and the Contractor will be promptly notified that the project can commence. b. If problems have been found with these data from either or both of the tests performed by the Independent Testing Organization, the Contractor and the pipe manufacturer will be notified of this fact, and will be fully informed on the testing results. In this case, if they so desire, the manufacturer and the Contractor will be given an opportunity to meet with representatives of the City, the Engineer, and the Independent Testing Organization to review and discuss these data in detail. This meeting would be held at a site designated by the City of Fort Worth, at the earliest possible time that all of the principal participants are able to participate. c. If the problems with the data have not been resolved and the pipe testing results remain unsatisfactory,the Contractor shall justify the reason(s)why the pipe should not be disqualified for use on the project. The Contractor may request, and the City may allow at its discretion, additional testing by the Independent Testing Organization. The City's decision on the acceptability of the pipe material is final. d. The Contractor's request for further testing may be granted by the City of Fort Worth if it is not possible to reach a satisfactory conclusion from the test results. Possible reasons include,but are not limited to, (1) large scatter in duplicate tests, (2) data that do not qualify under the standard, Addendum No. 2 7 12/21/04 and 3 unexplainable and significant differences between the data ( ) P � developed by the Independent Testing Organization and the manufacturer. e. A second round of testing by the Independent Testing Organization will include all tests previously performed,but with at least double the number of specimens (i.e., data points). The pipe that is provided for these tests must also have come from the same production line, manufacturing facility, supply of raw materials, the environmental conditions during manufacture and storage, the pipe transportation methods, and quality control procedures. f. The costs for any or all additional testing that will be conducted by the Independent Testing Organization, and for the services of the Engineer with that testing, will be the responsibility of the Contractor. g. At the Contractor's option, a second meeting at a time and place of the City's choosing will then be held to review and discuss the newly obtained results. This discussion will not be limited to the new data,but, as in the first meeting, all of the data—including that provided by the manufacturer from its own testing—shall be taken into account. h. At any time before, during or following the completion of this retesting, the City will have the authority to deem the pipe test results to be acceptable, and to notify the Contractor that the project can be initiated. Similarly, the City will also have the unequivocal authority to decide that the results are unsatisfactory, and to terminate the supplemental pipe testing program. No additional contract time will be given to the Contractor for retesting pipe due to failed tests. No additional compensation will be given to the Contractor for retesting pipe due to failed test. i. If the City desires to terminate the supplemental pipe testing program, they may pursue one of the following two options: (1) Contractor shall submit another pipe manufacturer's pipe per Part C- General Conditions C5-5.10 Removal of Defective and Unauthorized Work(at the same pipe pay item unit price), whereupon the supplemental testing will be performed on that pipe, as outlined above(at the Contractor's expense); or(2)-terminate the Contract as stated in Part C- General Conditions C7-7.16 Termination for Convenience of the Owner, November 1, 1987 and re-advertise the project for new bids. j. The City of Fort Worth reserves the right to perform additional supplemental pipe tests in addition to the above described testing, at its discretion, prior to installation. The pipe selected for testing may included pipe being delivered to the project, pipe at the factory, installed pipe, or any combination of these pipe. If the pipe is deemed unacceptable,the Contractor will replace all unsatisfactory pipes at his cost and additional testing will be performed until pipe is determined to be satisfactory. The pipe cost and the cost of supplying pipe shall be the responsibility of the Contractor. All other costs for this "additional supplemental" testing will be at the City's expense. The City will issue a Change Order equal to the cost of the testing to cover the costs of testing that it initiates. 5. WITNESSES 8 12/21/04 Addendum No. 2 r- a. The Consultant representing the City of Fort Worth, if the City so decides, may visit the plant of the selected pipe material to review the operations and procedures. b. The Consultant representing the City of Fort Worth will have the responsibility of monitoring the supplemental pipe tests, advising the Independent Testing Organization, and taking notes of the proceedings. The Consultant will be the arbitrator of any disputes regarding the tests. c.

A Type P-2 joint shall be made with an integral part of the liner extending 4 t 1/4 inches beyond the spigot end of the pipe, overlapping the liner downstream from the pipe joint and secured to the downstream liner by means of a welding strip. The 4 inch strip of liner extending beyond the spigot end of pipe shall be devoid of locking extensions and shall be protected from damage during pipe handling and jointing operations. Excessive tension and distortion in the strip caused by bending it back sharply at the end of the pipe will not be permitted. Flaps on extruded sheet shall be as stated in Subsection DETAILS AND DIMENSIONS. Care shall be taken to protect the flap from damage. Excessive tension and distortion in bending the flap back to expose the pipe joint during laying and joint mortaring shall be avoided. Any flap which has been bent and held back during pipe laying and jointing operations shall be allowed to return to its original shape and flatness well in advance of making the liner joint. For beveled pipe, the liner extension at the spigot end of the pipe shall be trimmed to extend 4 inches beyond and parallel to the beveled end. Length between ends of locking extensions shall not exceed 4 inches. Field joints in liner at pipe joints shall not be made until the mortar in the pipe has been allowed to cure for at least 48 hours. Addendum No. 2 03015-10 12/21/04 w All joints between lined pipe and lined cast-in-place structures shall be either Type C-1 or Type C-2 as specified herein. C. Field Joints in Cast-in-Place Structures. Field joints in liner on cast-in-place structures shall be one of the following types: i. Type C-1. A Type C-1 joint shall be made in the same manner as a Type P-1 joint is made. The width of the space between adjacent sheets of liner in a Type C-1 joint shall not exceed 1/2 inch. This type of joint is the only type permitted at transverse contraction joints in concrete. Its only other use is for joints between pipes and cast-in-place structures. ii. Type C-2. A Type C-2 joint shall be made by flipping sheets not less than 1-1/2 inches and securing the overlap to the adjacent liner by means of a welding strip. The upstream sheet shall overlap the downstream sheet. The length of that part of the overlapping sheet not having locking extensions shall not exceed 4 inches. iii. A welding strip shall be applied to the back of the joint. This type of joint may be used at any transverse liner joint other than those at transverse contraction joints in concrete and shall be used for liner joints made at longitudinal joints in concrete. iv. Type C-3. A Type C-3 joint shall be made by putting sheets of liner together and applying a welding strip over the back of the joint before concrete is poured, and applying a welding strip over the front of the joint, after concrete is poured. A type C-3 joint will not be permitted at a transverse joint that extends to a lower terminal edge of liner or at any joint where the gap between adjoining sheets of liner exceeds 1/8 inch. d. Installation of Welding Strips. Welding strips shall be fusion welded to joint strips and liner by qualified welders using only approved methods and techniques. The welding operation of any joint shall be continuous until that joint has been completed. At the lower terminal edges of liner, each transverse welding strip shall be extended at least 2 inches to provide a tab. The City may test each transverse weld by applying a 10 pound pull to the tab, normal to the face of the structure. Liner adjoining the welding strip shall be held in place during application of the force. If a weld failure develops, the 10 pound pull shall be maintained until no further separation occurs. Addendum No. 2 03015-11 12/21/04 Defective welds will be retested after repairs have been made.

This finished grade shall be maintained in a serviceable condition until the paving has been replaced. All residential driveways shall be accessible at night and over weekends. It has been determined by the Transportation and Public Works Department that the strip of existing HMAC pavement between the existing gutter and the edge of the trench pavement repair will not hold up if such strip of existing pavement is two (2)feet or less in width. Therefore, at the locations in the project where the trench wall is three (3)feet or less from the lip of the existing gutter, the Contractor shall be required to remove the existing paving to such r• gutter. The pavement repair shall then be made from a minimum distance of twelve (12) inches outside the trench wall nearest the center of the street to the gutter line. The pavement shall be replaced within a maximum of five (5) working days, providing job placement conditions will permit repaving. If paving conditions are not suitable for repaving, in the opinion of the Owner, the repaving shall be done at the earliest possible date. A permit must be obtained from the Department of Engineering Construction Services Section by the Contractor in conformance with Ordinance No. 3449 and/or Ordinance No. 792 to make utility cuts in the street.

It is the intent of the City of Fort Worth to comply with the requirements of the Asbestos NESHAP found at 40 CFR Part 61, Subpart M. This specification will establish procedures to be used by all Excavators in the removal and disposal of ACP in compliance with NESHAP. Nothing in this specification shall be construed to void any provision of a contract or other law, ordinance, regulation or policy whose requirements are more stringent. B. ACP is defined under NESHAP as a Category II, non-friable material in its intact state but which may become friable upon removal, demolition and/or disposal. Consequently, if the removal/ disposal process renders the ACP friable, it is regulated under the disposal requirements of 40 CFR 61.150. A NESHAP notification must be filed with the Texas Department of Health. The notification must be filed at least ten days prior to removal of the material. If it remains in its non - friable state, as defined by the NESHAP, it can be disposed as a conventional construction waste. EPA defines friable as material, when dry, which may be crumbled, pulverized or reduced to powder by hand pressures. C. The Generator of the hazardous material is responsible for the identification and proper handling, transportation, and disposal of the material. Therefore, it is the policy of the City of Fort Worth that the Excavator is the Generator regardless of whether the pipe is friable or not. D. It is the intent of the City of Fort Worth that all ACP shall be removed in such careful and prudent manner that it remains intact and does not become friable. The Excavator is responsible to employ those means, methods, techniques and sequences to ensure this result. E. Compliance with all aspects of worker safety and health regulations including but not limited to the OSHA Asbestos Standard is the responsibility of the Excavator. The City of Fort Worth assumes no responsibility for compliance programs, which are the responsibility of the Excavator. (Copy of forms attached) D-68 STORM WATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PERMIT: As defined by Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) regulations, a Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (TPDES) General Construction Permit is required for all construction activities that result in the disturbance of one to five acres (Small Construction Activity) or five or more acres of total land (Large Construction Activity). The contractor is defined as an "operator" by state regulations and is required to obtain a permit. Information concerning the permit can be obtained through the Internet at http://www.tnrcc.state.tx.us/permitting/water perm/wwperm/construct.html. Soil stabilization and structural practices have been selected and designed in accordance with North Central Texas Council of Governments Best Management Practices and Erosion Control Manual for Construction Activities (BMP Manual). This manual can be obtained through the Internet at www.dfwstormwater.com/runoff.htmi. Not all of the structural controls discussed in the BMP Manual will necessarily apply to this project. Best Management Practices are construction management techniques that, if properly utilized, can minimize the 03/23/04 SC-42 PART D - SPECIAL, CONDITIONS need for physical controls and possible reduce costs. The methods of control shall result in minimum sediment retention of not less than 70%. NOTICE OF INTENT (NOI): If the project will result in a total land disturbance equal to or greater than 5 acres, the contractor shall sign at the pre-construction meeting a TCEQ Notice of Intent (NOI)form.prepared by the engineer. It serves as a notification to the TCEQ of construction �. activity as well as a commitment that the contractor understands the requirements of the permit for storm water discharges from construction activities and that measures will be taken to implement and maintain storm water pollution prevention at the site. The NOI shall be submitted to the TCEQ at least 48 hours prior to the contractor moving on site and shall include the required $100 application fee. The NOI shall be mailed to: Texas Commission on Environmental Quality Storm Water& General Permits Team; MC-228 P.O.

A SWPPP that meets all TCEQ requirements prepared by the Engineer shall be prepared and implemented at least 48 hours before the commencement of construction activities. The SWPPP shall be incorporated into in the contract documents. The contractor shall submit a schedule for implementation of the SWPPP. Deviations from the plan must be submitted to the engineer for approval. The SWPPP is not warranted to meet all the conditions of the permit since the actual construction activities may vary from those anticipated during the preparation of the SWPPP. Modifications may be required to fully conform to the 0323/04 SC-43 PART D - SPECIAL CONDITIONS requirements of the Permit. The contractor must keep a copy of the most current SWPPP at the construction site. Any alterations to the SWPPP proposed by the contractor must be prepared and submitted by the contractor to the engineer for review and approval. A Notice of Termination (NOT)form shall be submitted within 30 days after final stabilization has been achieved on all portions of the site that is the responsibility of the permittee, or, when another permitted operator assumes control over all areas of the site that have not been finally stabilized.

However, a TCEQ Site Notice form must be completed and posted at the site. A copy of the completed Site Notice must be sent to the City of Fort Worth Department of Environmental Management at the address listed above. A SWPPP, prepared as described above, shall be implemented at least 48 hours before the commencement of construction activities. The SWPPP must include descriptions of control measures necessary to prevent and control soil erosion, sedimentation and water pollution and will be included in the contract documents. The control measures shall be installed and maintained throughout the construction to assure effective and continuous water pollution control. The controls may include, but not be limited to, silt fences, straw bale dikes, rock berms, diversion dikes, interceptor swales, sediment traps and basins, pipe slope drain, inlet protection, stabilized construction entrances, seeding, sodding, mulching, soil retention blankets, or other structural or non-structural storm water pollution controls.

D-69 COORDINATION WITH THE CITY'S REPRESENTATIVE FOR OPERATIONS OF EXISTING WATER SYSTEMS (N/A) D-70 ADDITIONAL SUBMITTALS FOR CONTRACT AWARD The City reserves the right to require any pre-qualified contractor who is the apparent low bidder(s)for a project to submit such additional information as the City, in sole discretion may require, including but not limited to manpower and equipment records, information about key personnel to be assigned to the project, and construction schedule, to assist the City in evaluating and assessing the ability of the apparent low bidder(s) to deliver a quality product and successfully complete projects for the amount bid within the stipulated time frame. Based upon the City's assessment of the submitted information, a recommendation regarding the award of a contract will be made to the City Council. Failure to submit the additional information if requested may be grounds for rejecting the apparent low bidder as non-responsive. Affected contractors will be notified in writing of a recommendation to the City Council. D-71 EARLY WARNING SYSTEM FOR CONSTRUCTION Time is of the essence in the completion of this contract. In order to insure that the contractor is responsive when notified of unsatisfactory performance and/or of failure to maintain the contract schedule, the following process shall be applicable: OW3104 SC-44 PART Q - SPECIAL CONDITIONS The work progress on all construction projects will be closely monitored. On a bi-monthly basis the percentage of work completed will be compared to the percentage of time charged to the contract. If the amount of work performed by the contractor is less than the percentage of time allowed by 20% or more (example: 10% of the work completed in 30% of the stated contract time as may be amended by change order), the following proactive measures will be taken: 1. A letter will be mailed to the contractor by certified mail, return receipt requested demanding that, within 10 days from the date that the letter is received, it provide sufficient equipment, materials and labor to ensure completion of the work within the contract time. In the event the contractor receives such a letter, the contractor shall provide to the City an updated schedule showing how the project will be completed within the contract time. 2. The Project Manager and the Directors of the Department of Engineering, Water Department, and Department of Transportation and Public Works will be made aware ro of the situation. If necessary, the City Manager's Office and the appropriate city 1 council members may also be informed. 3. Any notice that may, in the City's sole discretion, be required to be provided to interested individuals will distributed by the Engineering Department's Public Information Officer. ^� 4. Upon receipt of the contractor's response, the appropriate City departments and directors will be notified. The Engineering Department's Public Information Officer will, if necessary, then forward updated notices to the interested individuals. 5. If the contractor fails to provide an acceptable schedule or fails to perform satisfactorily a second time prior to the completion of the contract, the bonding company will be notified appropriately. D-72 AIR POLLUTION WATCH DAYS The Contractor shall be required to observe the following guidelines relating to working on City construction sites on days designated as "AIR POLLUTION WATCH DAYS". Typically, the OZONE SEASON, within the Metroplex area, runs from May 1, through OCTOBER 31, with 6:00 a.m. - 10:00 a.m. being critical BECAUSE EMISSIONS FROM THIS TIME PERIOD HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO BAKE IN THE HOT ATMOSPHERE THAT LEADS TO EARLY AFTERNOON OZONE FORMATION. . The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), in coordination with the National Weather Service, will issue the Air Pollution Watch by 3:00 p.m. on the afternoon prior to the WATCH day. On designated Air Pollution Watch Days, the Contractor shall bear the responsibility of being aware that such days have been designated Air Pollution Watch Days and as such shall not begin work until 10:00 a.m. whenever construction phasing requires the use of motorized equipment for periods in excess of 1 hour. However, the Contractor may begin work prior to 10:00 a.m. if use of motorized equipment is less than 1 hour, or if equipment is new and certified by EPA as "Low Emitting", or equipment burns Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD), diesel emulsions, or alternative fuels such as CNG. If the Contractor is unable to perform continuous work for a period of at least seven hours between the hours of 7:00 a.m. -6:00 p.m., on a designated Air Pollution Watch Day, that day will be considered as a weather day and added onto the allowable weather days of a given month.

The strips shall be placed to provide a minimum width of 24-inches of overlap for each joint. Temporary pinning of the textile to help hold it in place until the rock riprap is placed. The temporary pins shall be removed as the riprap is placed to relieve high tensile stress which may occur during placement of material on the geotextile. The specified placement procedure requires that the length of the geotextile be greater than the actual slope length. The Contractor shall adjust the actual length of the geotextile used based on initial installation experience. The geotextile shall be protected at all times during construction from contamination by surface runoff and any geotextile so contaminated shall be removed and replaced with uncontaminated geotextile. Any geotextile damaged during its installation or during placement of riprap shall be replaced by the Contractor at no cost to the Owner. The work shall be scheduled so that the covering of the geotextile with a layer of the specified material is accomplished within seven (7) calendar days after placement of the geotextile.

Before placement of gabion units, the Contractor shall demonstrate that the placement technique will prevent damage to the geotextile. In no case shall any type of equipment be allowed on the unprotected geotextile. 3. RIPRAP PLACEMENT: Stone for riprap shall be placed on the filter fabric blanket in such a manner as to produce a reasonably well graded mass of rock with the minimum practicable percentage of voids and shall be constructed within the specified tolerance to the lines and grades shown on the drawings. Then intent of these specifications is to require placement of riprap to the thickness shown and to allow isolated stones to extend as much as six inches above grade. Riprap shall be placed to its full course thickness at one operation and in such a manner as to avoid displacing the fabric. The larger stones shall be well distributed and the entire mass of stones in their final position shall conform to the gradation specified hereinbefore. The finished riprap shall be free from objectionable pockets of small stones and clusters of larger stones. The desired distribution of the various sizes of stones throughout the mass shall be obtained by selective loading of the material at the quarry or other source, by controlled dumping of successive loads during final placing, or by other methods of placement which will produce the specified results. Rearranging of individual stones, by mechanical equipment or by hand will be required to the extent necessary to obtain a reasonably well graded distribution of stone specified above. The Contractor shall maintain the riprap protection until accepted. Any material displaced by any cause shall be replaced at his erosion to the lines and grades shown on the Drawings. 4. GROUT PLACEMENT: Grout shall be composed of cement, water and air-entraining admixture and sand mixed in the proportions of 1 part of Portland cement to 3 parts of sand, sufficient water to produce a workable mixture, and that amount of admixture which will entrain sufficient air to produce durable grout, as determined by the ENGINEER. Sand for grouting shall conform to the requirements of paragraph: FINE AGGREGATE. The grout shall be mixed in a concrete mixer in the manner specified for concrete except that the time of mixing shall be increased to that necessary to produce a mixture having a consistency such as to permit gravity flow into the interstices of the riprap with the help of limited spading and brooming. The grout shall be used in the 06104103 ASC-33 PART DA - ADDITIONAL SPECIAL CONDITIONS work within a period of one (1) hour after mixing. Retempering of ground will not be permitted. Riprap shall not be grouted when the ambient temperature is below 35 degree F. or above 95 degrees F. unless approved by the ENGINEER in writing; nor when the grout, without special protection, is likely to be subjected to freezing temperatures before final set has occurred. Prior to grouting, all surfaces of riprap shall be wetted. The riprap shall be grouted in successive longitudinal strips, approximately 10 feet in width, commencing at the lowest strip and working up the slope. Grout shall be brought to the place of final deposit by approved means, and in no case will grout be permitted to flow on the riprapped surface a distance in excess of 10 feet. Immediately after dumping the batch of grout, it shall be distributed over the surface of the strip by the use of brooms and the grout worked into place between stones with suitable spades, trowels, or vibrating equipment. As a final operation, the grout shall be removed from the top surfaces of the upper stones and from pockets and depressions in the surface of the stone protection. After completion of any strip as specified, no workman or any load shall be permitted on the grouted surface for a period of at least 24 hours. The grouted surface shall be protected from rain, flowing water, and mechanical injury. The surface of all grouted dprap shall be cured by keeping the surface continuously wet for a period ° of not less than 7 days. E. MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT . 1.

The earthwork consists of operations required for excavation, non-expansive earth fill, structure backfill and general earth fill, as may be required during development of the project. The term"embankment"as used in this section refers to the compacted earth fill required for structure pads, roadway embankment fill and miscellaneous related fill. The "subgrade" refers to the surface of the cleared and stripped areas that are designated to receive fill, roadways or structures. B. The CONTRACTOR shall inform and satisfy himself as to the character, quantity and distribution of material to be excavated. 1.2 WORK AFFECTING EXISTING UTILITIES A. Above or below grade utilities which are to remain shall be protected by the CONTRACTOR. Existing utilities shall not be taken out of service without specific written authorization by the OWNER. 1.3 PROTECTION A. Protect trees, shrubs, lawns and other features remaining as part of the final landscaping. B. Protect benchmarks, existing structures (not being removed), fences, roads and paving. C. Notify the ENGINEER of unexpected subsurface conditions. D. Where damage could result from continuing work, discontinue work in area until ENGINEER notifies CONTRACTOR of the required modifications. PART 2 - PRODUCTS 2.1 EQUIPMENT A. CONTRACTOR shall furnish, operate and maintain all equipment required to complete this project, including, but not limited to,the following: B. Grading Equipment: Equipment necessary to produce uniform layers, sections and smoothness of grade for compaction and drainage. 02200 - 1 L C. Miscellaneous Equipment: Scarifiers, disks, spring tooth or spike tooth harrows, earth hauling equipment and other equipment suitable for removal of material from excavations and for the construction of fills. PART 3- EXECUTION 3.1 PROCESSING AND MOISTURE-DENSITY CONTROL A. Following the spreading and mixing of the soil on the embankment, it shall be processed by discing or pulverizing throughout its thickness to break up and reduce clod size, and provide additional blending of materials. Processing shall consist of at least five passes of a fully penetrating disc plow or three passes of a i� fully penetrating roto-till pulverize. Additional passes of the processing equipment shall be performed as necessary to accomplish breaking up, reduction of clod size, and blending the fill. Each successive pass of the processing equipment shall be in a direction perpendicular to the previous pass, where working space permits. The maximum recommended loose lift thickness prior to compaction is eight (8) inches. The moisture content of the soil shall be adjusted, if necessary, by either aeration or the addition of water to bring the moisture content within the recommended range. Water required for sprinkling to bring the fill material to the proper moisture content shall be applied evenly through each layer. B. Any layers which become damaged by weather conditions shall be reprocessed to meet recommended requirements. The compacted surface of a layer of fill shall be lightly loosened by discing before the succeeding layer is placed. C. When the moisture content and the condition of the fill layer are satisfactory, compaction shall be performed with a heavy tamping foot roller with fully penetrating feet (feet long enough to penetrate into the previous lift) either towed by a crawler-type tractor or the self-propelled type. The tamping foot roller shall weigh no less than 2,000 pounds per linear foot of drum width. Vibratory tamping rollers are recommended for compacting sandier fill materials. D. The in-place density of the fill shall be no less than 95 percent of the maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D698, Standard Proctor, at a moisture content between optimum and 5 percentage points wet of optimum moisture content for all low-permeability earth fill zones(liners, cores, etc.) and between 2 percentage points below to 5 percentage points above optimum moisture content for non-expansive earth fill zones and general earth fill zones. The moisture content and density of all fill material shall be maintained at the specified range of moisture and density. These moisture ranges represent the maximum limits. It is possible under some circumstances or with some soils, that a more narrow range, within the recommended limits, will be necessary to consistently achieve the recommended density. In order to help provide a homogeneous earth fill mass, a minimum of eight passes of the tamping foot roller shall be provided, even if the recommended density is achieved with fewer passes. 02200 -2 E. Field density tests (including moisture content) shall be taken as each lift of fill material is placed. A minimum of one field density test per lift for each 2,500 square feet of compacted area is required. For small or critical areas, the frequency of testing shall be reduced to one test per 1,000 square feet or less. A minimum of two density tests shall be taken on each lift, regardless of size. The earthwork operations will be observed and tested on a continuing basis by an experienced geotechnician working in conjunction with the project geotechnical engineer. F. Each lift shall be compacted, tested and approved before another lift is added. The actual quality of the fill, ,as compacted, shall be the responsibility of the CONTRACTOR and satisfactory results from the tests shall not be considered as a guarantee of the quality of the CONTRACTOR's filling operations. 3.2 STRUCTURE BACKFILL PLACEMENT AND COMPACTION A. The backfill material shall be placed in maximum 8-inch lifts and compacted to a density ranging between 95 and 100 percent of maximum Standard Proctor (ASTM D698) dry density at a moisture content ranging from 2 percentage points below optimum to 5 percentage points above optimum for the backfill materials. Caution shall be exercised not to overcompact the backfill. Hand-operated tampers or other lightweight compactors are required in the 5-foot area adjacent to the wall or other structure.

Average Compressive Strength Required for Mixtures: Select the mixture proportions during mixture design studies to produce a required average compressive strength (fcr) exceeding the specified compressive strength (f'c) by the amount indicated below. This required average compressive strength, f'cr, will not be a required acceptance criteria during concrete production. However, whenever the daily average compressive strength at 28 days drops below fcr during concrete production, or daily average 7-day strength drops below a strength correlated with the 28-day fcr, adjust the mixture, as approved,to bring the daily average back up to f'cr. During production, adjust the required f'cr, as appropriate, based on the standard deviation being attained on the job. E. Computations from Test Records: Where a concrete production facility has test records, establish a standard deviation in accordance with the applicable provisions of ACI 214.3R.

A strength test is the average of the strengths of two cylinders made from the same sample of concrete and tested at 28 days. For the required average compressive strength fcr used as the basis for selection of concrete proportions use the larger of the equations that follow based on the standard deviation determined above: f'cr=f'c+ 1.34S where units are in psi f'cr=f'c+2.33S- 500 where units are in psi Where S =standard deviation Where a concrete production facility does not have test records meeting the requirements above but does have a record based on 15 to 29 consecutive tests, establish a standard deviation as the product of the calculated standard deviation and a modification factor from the following table: NUMBER OF TESTS MODIFICATION FACTOR FOR STANDARD DEVIATION 15 1.16 20 1.08 25 1.03 30 or more 1.00 F. Computations without Previous Test Records: When a concrete production facility does not have sufficient field strength test records for calculation of the standard deviation, determine the required average strength f'cr as follows: 1. If the specified compressive strength fc is less than 3,000 psi: f'cr=f'c+ 1000 psi 2. If the specified compressive strength fc is 3,000 to 5,000 psi: 03300 - 6 f'cr=f'c+ 1,200 psi G.

This will require an aerial crossing over the existing shallow tributary to the Trinity River south bank. The sewer invert depth will be less than 25 feet. Twenty-five foot deep manhole structures will be required along the alignment. 1.2 FIELD INVESTIGATION The field investigation for this project consisted of drilling six (6) test borings at locations staked by Carter & Burgess (C & B). A truck-mounted auger drill rig was used to advance these borings and to obtain samples for laboratory evaluation. The borings were located at the locations shown on the Site Plan on Figure 1. The ground elevations reported on the boring logs were surveyed by C & B. All borings were grouted upon completion. The upper 12 inches was plugged with on-site soil. Undisturbed samples of cohesive soils were obtained at intermittent intervals with standard, thin-walled, seamless tube samplers. These samples were extruded in the field, logged, sealed, and packaged to protect them from disturbance and maintain their in-situ moisture content during transportation to our laboratory. The granular soils were sampled with split spoon samples in conjunction with standard penetration tests. The limestone strata encountered in the test borings were evaluated by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Cone Penetration Test. The TxDOT Cone is driven with the resulting penetration in inches recorded for 100 blows. The results of the TxDOT -- MAS-TEK ENGINEERING & ASSOCIATES E03-0404 PAGE 2 Cone Penetration Tests are recorded at the respective testing depths on the Logs of Borings. The limestone formation was also continuously cored to allow core examination and compression testing of rock core samples. The results of the boring program are presented on the Logs of Borings (Figure 2 thru 9). A key to the descriptive terms and symbols used on the logs is presented on Figure 10. 1.3 LABORATORY TESTING Laboratory tests were performed on representative samples of the soil to aid in classification of the soil materials. These tests included Atterberg Limits tests, moisture content tests, and dry unit weight determinations. Hand penetrometer tests were performed on the soil samples to provide indications of the swell potential and the foundation bearing properties of the subsurface strata. Unconfined compressive strength tests were performed on soil samples to provide indications of their foundation bearing properties. To provide additional information about the grain size characteristics of these soils, Sieve tests were performed on selected samples of the alluvial soils. The results of our testing program are presented on the Logs of Borings (Figures 2 thru 9) and on the sieve summaries (Figures 11 thru 18). 2.0 LOCATION AND GENERAL GEOLOGY Based on geologic mapping and available geotechnical data, the proposed alignment is underlain by existing fill soils and deep alluvial soils. The fill soils were encountered to depths of 1 to 8 feet below existing grade and consist of broken rock, brick, asphalt, concrete, sand, and clay soils. The deeper alluvial soils consist of silty clay and sandy clay soils having a PI generally ranging from about 20 to 30 with interbedded layers of sand and gravel. The silty clay soils below depths of 10' are generally wet and soft. Thick sand and gravel layers were encountered above the Fort Worth Limestone Formation. Hard to very hard gray limestone with calcareous shale layers was encountered at Boring B-7 at a depth of about 32 feet (EI. 492). MAS-TEK ENGINEERING & ASSOCIATES E03-0404 PAGE 3 At the time of this investigation, groundwater levels generally ranged from 5 to 14 feet below existing grade (EI 517 to EI 520). 3.0 UTILITY CONSTRUCTION 3.1 TRENCH EXCAVATIONS It is understood that trench excavations to depths of about 20 to 25 feet will be required at this site. As indicated on the boring logs, and based on geologic mapping and available geotechnical data, the proposed alignment is underlain by existing fill soils and deep alluvial soils. The fill soils were encountered to depths of 1 to 8 feet and consist of broken rock, brick, asphalt, concrete, sand, and clay soils. The fill soils were very soft in some areas. The deeper alluvial soils consist of silty clay and sandy clay soils having a PI generally ranging from about 20 to 30 with interbedded layers of sand and gravel. The silty clay soils below depths of 10' are generally wet and soft. Thick sand and gravel layers were encountered above the hard to very hard Fort Worth Limestone Formation, encountered at Boring B-7 at a depth of 32 feet (E1492). At the time of this investigation, groundwater levels generally ranged from 5 to 14 feet below existing grade (EI 517 to EI 520). For trench excavations less than five feet in depth, and in stable clay soils, trench excavations may be cut near vertical in accordance with OSHA regulations. For excavations to any depth in sand, gravel, soft clay, non-compact fill, submerged soil; or unstable rock (fractured shale), or where seepage, or sloughing is observed, it will be necessary to employ either sloped excavations or temporary bracing. For excavations to depths in excess of five feet, it will be necessary to employ either sloped excavations or temporary bracing, regardless of the soil conditions encountered. General guidelines for the design of these two alternatives are discussed in the following sections. 3.2 OPEN CUTS Recommended slope ratios for the respective soil conditions are presented graphicatiy on Figure 19. Trench excavations encountering submerged soils or soft clay should be cut back in accordance with OSHA regulations for Type C soils as indicated on Figure 19. Trench excavations to depths of less than five feet in unstable soil or rock conditions should be cut back in a similar manner as described above. It should be recognized that free MAS-TEK ENGINEERING & ASSOCIATES E03-0404 PAGE 4 �. standing slopes will be less stable when influenced by groundwater or saturated by rain. Surcharge loads, such as those resulting from excavation spoil, or equipment, should be placed no closer than two feet from the crest of the slope, in accordance with OSHA regulations. Vehicle traffic should be maintained at least five feet from the edge of the crest. Based on the recent borings, OSHA Type C soils are generally present along the proposed alignment. Excavations may encounter non-compact fill soils placed during previous construction of underground utilities. If encountered, these fill soils should be sheeted, shored, and braced, or laid back on slopes no steeper than 2 (H): I (V). 3.3 TRENCH SHORING Where site limitations require excavations to have vertical sidewalls, an internal bracing system will be necessary. Bracing may consist of timber or steel shoring or manufactured steel trench braces. The lateral pressure distribution to be used in the design of trench bracing may be determined as presented on Figure 20. It should be recognized that pressures are not included from hydrostatic pressures,. surcharge loads, construction equipment, or traffic live loads at trench side walls, which if present, must be included in bracing design. In lieu of a shoring system, a trench shield consisting of a prefabricated rigid steel unit adequate to withstand anticipated lateral pressures may be used. 4.0 DEWATERING REQUIREMENTS 4.1 DEWATERING OF TRENCH EXCAVATIONS At the time of this investigation, groundwater levels generally ranged from about 5 to 14 feet below existing grade (El 517 to EI 520). It should be anticipated that groundwater will be encountered in trench excavations and in excavations for the below grade manhole �a structures. Groundwater levels will be encountered at relatively shallow depths, particularly after periods of heavy rain or during periods of elevated water levels within the Trinity River. In areas where groundwater is encountered, a system of ditches, sumps, staged well point systems, and pumping will be required to provide groundwater control to suitable depths below required excavations. The design of the actual dewatering systems required is the contractor's responsibility. This includes the control of tail water flow through previous backfilled sections. MAS-TEK ENGINEERING &ASSOCIATES E03-0404 PAGE 5 5.0 MANHOLE STRUCTURES It is understood that manhole structures founded at depths of about 25 feet will be required at each end of the alignment. The following design and construction considerations will be relevant for these structures. 1. Dewatering should be performed to depths of at least 5 feet below the required excavation depth. After excavation to the required depth, a Mas-Tek Engineer should verify the presence of stiff clay or compact granular soils. If soft to medium clay or loose granular soils are encountered, they should be removed and replaced with lean concrete. 3. A minimum 6-inch thick lean concrete mud slab should be placed below all structures. Prior to placement of, any lean concrete, compaction. of the excavation subgrade should be performed for a depth of 8 inches to 98% ASTM D698. 4. The manhole structures may be designed for an allowable soil bearing capacity of 3,500 psf. 6.0 AERIAL CROSSING An aerial crossing is proposed across a tributary to the Trinity River (between Borings B-2 and B-7). Due to the presence of soft submerged soil conditions at the boring locations, it is recommended that the aerial crossing be supported by cased straight shaft piers founded in hard to very hard gray unweathered limestone. The unweathered limestone was encountered at a depth of about 32 feet at Boring B-7 (EI 492). It should be recognized that the depth of unweathered limestone near the tributary may be deeper due to river erosion and weathering of the bedrock. It is recommended that the drilled shafts penetrate unweathered and unfractured hard gray limestone a minimum of three (3) feet to develop the allowable end bearing pressure. The allowable end bearing pressure and skin friction (side resistance) provided in Table 1 have been developed based on the assumption that a minimum 2 pier diameter clear spacing will be provided between piers. Where the clear spacing between piers will be less than 2-pier diameter (2D), a reduction factor should be applied to the allowable skin friction for the determination of required pier penetrations. For piers touching (clear spacing is zero). a reduction factor of 50% should be used. For a clear spacing of 2D, where D is the diameter MAS-TEK ENGINEERING & ASSOCIATES E03-0404 PAGE 6 of the largest adjacent pier, no reduction is necessary. A straight-line interpolated reduction should be used where the clear spacing is between zero and 2D. TABLE 1. ALLOWABLE BEARING VALUES FOR UNWEATHERED HARD GRAY LIMESTONE ALLQ� NAM-E SHAFT LOADING -Lao Axial End Bearing 40,000 psf Skin Friction Side Resistance 10,000 psf The allowable skin friction values may be counted on for penetrations into the hard gray unweathered and unfractured limestone bearing stratum exceeding 2 feet or one (1) pier diameter whichever is greater. During pier drilling operations, the upper layer of weathered gray limestone (identified by presence of tan bands or iron-stained fractures) should not be counted on for the required pier penetration during installation. The design shaft penetrations should be counted for penetrations only in continuous hard gray unweathered and unfractured limestone. If a tan layer is encountered within the gray limestone stratum, the pier should be deepened and the design penetration started again from the surface of the continuous hard gray unweathered and unfractured limestone stratum. 6.1 ALLOWABLE LATERAL RESISTANCE We understand that the proposed aerial crossing will be subject to lateral loads. A linearly increasing allowable passive soil resistance value of 100 psf per foot of depth should be used for that portion of the pier shaft in direct contact with the stiff to very stiff undisturbed soils. A maximum passive resistance value of 1500 psf should not be exceeded within the over burden soils (above the limestone formation). Lateral shaft resistance should be neglected along the upper 5 feet of the pier shaft or to a depth of 3 feet below the anticipated scour depth of the tributary, whichever is deeper. A uniform passive resistance value of 10,000 psf is recommended for the gray limestone for penetrations in excess of 1 D into the unweathered and unfractured gray limestone (where D is the pier diameter). MAS-TEK ENGINEERING & ASSOCIATES E03-0404 PAGE 7 �r Due to the requirement that the shafts be socketed into limestone, the bottom of the pier shafts will be fixed and will not be free to deflect laterally. It should therefore be assumed that the point of contraflexure is one (1)foot below the surface of the unweathered limestone stratum. If calculations indicate that the lateral forces on the pier shafts are resisted entirely by the soil strata above the unweathered limestone bearing stratum, the point of contraflexure can be assumed to be located at the depth in which all lateral forces are resisted. 6.2 DRILLED SHAFT SOIL INDUCED UPLIFT LOADS Drilled shafts will be subject to uplift loads as a result of heave in the overlying clays. Our studies indicate that straight shaft piers socketed into the unweathered gray limestone as described above should have adequate anchorage to resist potential uplift loads. The drilled shafts should be provided with sufficient continuous vertical reinforcing steel extending to the base of the shafts to resist the computed uplift loads. The magnitude of the uplift loads varies with the shaft diameter, soil parameters, and the depth of the active clays acting on the shaft. The uplift pressures can be approximated at this site by assuming a uniform uplift pressure of 1,000 pounds per square foot acting on the shaft perimeter for a depth of 10 feet from the top of pier. 6.3 DRILLED SHAFT CONSTRUCTION CONSIDERATIONS Drilled straight shafts socketed into the unweathered gray limestone as described above should experience settlements of less than one-quarter inch. Most of the settlement should occur elastically soon after loading. Temporary casing will be required during all pier installations to seal out groundwater and caving soils. Temporary casing should be seated in the unweathered gray limestone and properly sealed to prevent seepage into the drilled shafts. Care must then be taken that a sufficient head of plastic concrete is maintained within the casing during extraction. Shaft penetration should not be counted on within that portion of the shaft through which the casing is set. MAS-TEK ENGINEERING & ASSOCIATES E03-0404 PAGE 8 ,, Concrete used for the shafts should have a slump of 5 inches plus or minus 1 inch and be placed using a tremie to limit the free fall of the concrete to five (5) feet in a manner to avoid striking the reinforcing steel and walls of the shaft during placement. Complete installation of individual shafts should be accomplished within an 8-hour period in order to help prevent deterioration of bearing surfaces. The drilling of individual shafts should be excavated in a continuous operation and concrete placed as soon as practical after completion of the drilling, particularly if groundwater seepage is detected. No shaft should be left open for more than 8 hours. We recommend that Mas-Tek be retained to observe and document the drilled pier construction. The engineer, or his representative, should document the shaft diameter, depth, cleanliness, plumbness of the shaft, temporary casing, and the type of bearing material. Significant deviations from the specified or anticipated conditions should be reported to the owner's representative and to the structural engineer. The drilled pier excavation should be observed after the bottom of the hole is cleaned of any mud or extraneous material, and dewatered, if necessary. 7.0 EARTHWORK GUIDELINES 7.1 TRENCH BACKFILL The excavated soils can be used for trench backfill. Use of rock or shale fragments greater than six (6) inches in any dimension should be prohibited, since attaining a uniform moisture and density without voids would be difficult. Fill should be placed in maximum eight (8) inch lifts and compacted to a minimum of 95% Standard Proctor density (ASTM'D698) at a moisture content ranging from -2% to +2% of the optimum proctor value. Where fill depths exceed 15 feet, compaction levels should be increased to a minimum of 98% ASTM D698. Fill depths in excess of 25 feet should be compacted to 100% ASTM D698. r 7.2 FIELD SUPERVISION AND DENSITY TESTING Field density and moisture content determinations should be made on each lift of fill with a minimum of one test per lift per 100 linear feet of trench backfill. Many problems can be avoided or solved in the field if proper inspection and testing services are provided. It is recommended that manhole construction, site preparation, r MAS-TEK ENGINEERING & ASSOCIATES E03-0404 PAGE 9 concrete placement, and fill compaction be monitored by a qualified engineering technician. Density tests should be performed to verify compaction and moisture content of any earthwork. Inspection should be performed before and during concrete placement — operations. Mas-Tek employs a group of experienced, well-trained technicians for inspection and construction materials testing who would be pleased to assist you on this project. 8.0 LIMITATIONS The professional services, which have been performed, the findings obtained, and the recommendations prepared were accomplished in accordance with currently accepted geotechnical engineering principles and practices. The possibility always exists that the subsurface conditions at the site may vary somewhat from those encountered in the boreholes. The number and spacing of test borings were chosen in such a manner as to decrease the possibility of undiscovered abnormalities, while considering the nature of loading, size, and cost of the project. If there are any unusual conditions differing " significantly from those described herein, Mas-Tek should be notified to review the effects on the performance of construction and the recommended foundation systems. The recommendations given in this report were prepared exclusively for the use of Carter and Burgess and their consultants. The information supplied herein is applicable only for the design of the previously described improvements to be constructed at locations indicated at this site and should not be used for any other structures, locations, or for any other purpose. We will retain the samples acquired for this project for a period of 30 days after the submittal date printed on the report. After this period, the samples will be discarded unless otherwise notified by the owner in writing. MAS-TEK ENGINEERING & ASSOCIATES E03-0404 PAGE 10 ~ Mas T1Ex E,ngineet�g N Ix`! 8�AmSeeiates, Inc.
