same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be required to underbid a nonresident bidder in order to obtain a
comparable contract in the State which the nonresidenYs principal place of business is located.
The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all nonresident bidders in order for your bid to meet
specifications. The failure of nonresident bidders to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders

CONTROL OF WORK
A. Fumish plant and equipment which will be efficient, appropriate and large enough to
secure a satisfactory quality of work and a rate of progress which will ensure the com-
pletion of the work within the Contract Time. If at any time such plant appears to be in-
efficient, inappropriate or insufficient for securing the quality of work required or for
producing the rate of progress aforesaid, Engineer may order the Contractor to increase
the efficiency, change the character or increase the plant equipment and the Contractor
shall conform to such order. Failure of the Engineer to give such order shall in no way
relieve the Contractor of his obligations to secure the quality of the work and rate of
progress required.
14 1.2 PRIVATE LAND
15 A. Do not enter or occupy private land outside of plant or easements, except by permission
16 of the land owner.
17 1.3 PIPE LOCATIONS
18 A. Locate pipelines substantially as indicated on the Drawings. The Engineer reserves the
19 right to make such modifications in locations as may be found desirable to avoid inter-
20 ference with existing structures or for other reasons. Where fittings are noted on the
21 Drawings, such notation is for the Contractor's convenience and does not relieve him
22 from laying and j ointing different or additional items where required.

A. Adequately safeguazd all open excavations by providing temporary bazricades, caution
signs, lights and other means to prevent accidents to persons and damage to property.
Provide suitable and safe bridges and other crossings for accommodating travel by pe-
destrians and workmen. Remove bridges provided for access during construction when
no longer required. The length or size of excavation will be controlled by the particular
surrounding conditions, but shall always be confined to the limits prescribed by the En-
gineer. If the excavation becomes a hazard, or if it excessively restricts traffic at any
point, the Engineer may require special construction procedures such as limiting the
length of the open trench, prohibiting stacking excavated material in the street and re-
quiring that the trench shall not remain open ovemight.
34 1.5 TEST PITS
35 A. Excavate test pits, at the direction of the Engineer, to locate underground pipelines or
36 structures in advance of the construction. Backfill test pits immediately after their pur-
37 pose has been satisfied and restore and maintain the surface in a manner satisfactory to
38 the Engineer.

2 A. Unless permission to close a street is received in writing from the proper authority,
3 place all excavated material so that vehiculaz and pedestrian traffic may be maintained
4 at all times. If the construction operations cause traffic hazards, repair the road surface,
5 provide temporary ways, erect wheel guards or fences, or take other measures for safety
6 satisfactory to the Engineer.
7 B. Detours around construction will be subject to the approval of the Owner and the Engi-
8 neer. Where detours are permitted, provide all necessary barricades and signs as re-
9 quired to divert the flow of traffic. Eacpedite construction operations while traffic is de-
10 toured. Periods when traffic is being detoured will be strictly controlled by the Owner.
11 C. Take precautions to prevent injury to the public due to open trenches. Night watchmen
12 may be required where special hazards exist, or police protection provided for traffic
13 while work is in progress. Be fully responsible for damage or injuries whether or not
14 police protection has been provided.

B. Make any taps and fumish a11 necessary caps, plugs, etc., as required in conjunction
with testing pipelines. Furnish a test pump, gauges and any other equipment required in
conjunction with carrying out the hydrostatic tests.
CLEANING PIPELINES
A. As pipe laying progresses and at the conclusion of the work thoroughly clean all new
pipelines by flushing with water or other means to remove all dirt, stones, pieces of
wood or other material which may have entered during the construction period. If, after
this cleaning, obstructions remain, they shall be removed.
TESTING GRAVITY PIPELINES
24 A. All gravity pipelines shall be tested for leakage by an infiltration or eacfiltration test.
25 Buried piping shall be tested by an infiltration test if the groundwater is more than 2-ft
26 above the crown of the pipe for the full length of the section to be tested. Air testing
27 may be used in lieu of an exfiltration test subject to approval of the Engineer.
28 B. E�ltration Test
29 1. Leakage tests by exfiltration shall be made by creating a head in the pipeline to be
30 tested by filling the line and either a manhole or temporary riser on one end of the
31 line with water. The length of pipe to be tested shall be such that the head over the
32 crown at the upstream end is not less than 2-ft and the head over the downstream
33 crown is not more than 6-ft. The pipe shall be plugged by pneumatic bags or me-
34 chanical plugs in such a manner that the air can be released from the pipe while it is
35 being filled with water. Before any measurements are made, the pipe shall be kept
36 full of water long enough to allow absorption and the escape of any trapped air to
37 take place. Following this, a test period of at least one hour shall begin. Provisions
38 shall be made for measuring the amount of water required to maintain the water at a
39 constant level during the test period.

1 2. If any joint shows an appreciable amount of leakage, the jointing material shall be
2 removed and the joint repaired. If any pipe is defective, it shall be removed and re-
3 placed. If the quantity of water required to maintain a constant head in the pipe does
4 not exceed 1.9 gallons per inch of diameter per day per 100-$ of pipe and if all the
5 leakage is not confined to a few joints, worl�anship shall be considered satisfacto-
6 ry.
7 C. Infiltration Test
8 1. Pipe shall be tested for infiltration after the bacl�ll has been placed and the ground
9 water allowed to return to normal elevation. The length of line to be tested shall be
10 not less than the length between adjacent manholes and not more than the total
11 length of each size of pipe. The allowable infiltration shall be 1.9 gallons per inch
12 of diameter per day per 100-ft of pipe in each section tested There shall be no
13 gushing or spurting leaks.

2. If an inspection of the completed pipeline or any part thereof shows pipes or joints
which allow noticeable infiltration of water, the defective work or material shall be
replaced or repaired as directed.
3. Rates of infiltration shall be determined by means of V-notch weirs, pipe spigots, or
by plugs in the end of the pipe installed in an approved manner and at such times
and locations as may be directed by the Engineer.
D. When the pipeline to be tested is reinforced concrete pipe, the allowabie leakage in the
above tests shall be 4.7 gallons per inch of diameter per 100-ft of pipe.
E. Low Pressure Air Test
l. Low-pressure air tests shall be made with equipment specifically designed and
manufactured for the purpose of testing pipelines using low-pressure air. The
equipment sha11 be provided with an air regulator valve or air safety valve so set
that the intemal air pressure in the pipeline cannot exceed 8 psig. Pneumatic plugs
sha11 have a sealing length equal to or greater than the diameter of the pipe to be
tested. All air used shall pass through a single control panel.
2. Install plugs at manholes. Brace plugs securely as required for safety and allow no
one in the manholes while pressurizing the line or during the test.
3. Low-pressure air shall be introduced into the sealed line until the intemal air pres-
sure reaches 4 psig. The intemal air pressute in the sealed line shall not be allowed
to exceed 8 psig. At least 2 minutes shall be allowed for the air pressure to stabilize
in the section under test. After the stabilization period, the low pressure air supply
hose shall be quickly disconnected from the control panel. The time required in
minutes for the pressure in the section under test to decrease from 3.5 to 2.5 psig
shall not be less than that shown in Table 1 of ASTM F1417.
38 4. If the pipe section does not pass the air test, sectionalize the section tested to deter-
39 mine the location of the leak. Once the leak has been located, repair and retest.
40 3.4 TESTING PRESSURE PIPELINES
41 A. All pressure pipelines sha11 be pressure and leakage tested. Pipelines shall be subjected
42 to a hydrostatic pressure of 50 percent above the normal operating pressure and this
43 pressure maintained for at least 10 minutes. The leakage test shall be conducted at the
44 maximum operating pressure as determined by the Engineer, and this pressure shall be
45 maintained for at least two hours. The test pump and water supply shall be arranged to
46 allow accurate measurement of the water required to maintain the test pressure. Where

upon which the job set must be taken out for new entries and for examination,
and the conditions under which these activities will be performed, devise a
suita.ble method for protecting the job set.
b. Do not use the j ob set for any purpose except entry of new da.ta. and for review
by the City, until start of transfer of data to final Project Record Documents.
c. Maintain the job set at the site of work.

extrusion welding of Bell& Spigot end treatments on
Spirolite Pipe or other HDPE structures. This procedure is
intended to provide fabricators with the necessary
instructions to produce a quality weld.
PROCEDURE
I. OPERATION PARAMETERS FOR THE HANDHELD WELDING GUN
A. Connect the welding gun to a contaminant free air source
with a minimum airflow capacity of 7 CFM. The required air
pressure for shop welding is 20 to 25 psi. A welding gun
-- with a self contained air source or blower will be
acceptable to use providing it meets the above requirements.
B. Before plugging the gun into the required electrical outlet,
ensure the starting trigger is in the released position.
C. Plug the gun into the electrical source and access the SP
mode for temperature set point on the controller box. (Some
older welding guns will have a dial indicator instead of
digital control box) See if the temperature is set at 240°-
254° for Celsius settings and 464°-490° for Fahrenheit
settings. (Note: Setting temperatures are guidelines and may
need to be adjusted as the above temperatures are for the
�extruded plastic) For digital controllers wait until the
read-out shows a green light or internal reading indicating
the tool is at the set point and ready for use. This will
take approximately 10-15 minutes. The read-out should
indicate the temperature is within the set point range. If
the digital display shows an "error" code, shut the unit
down and contact your supervisor.
D. Using a pyrometer with a thermocouple for air, check the air
temperature at the tip of the heating nozzle near the end of
the Teflon die. Adjust the controller to achieve an air
temperature of 250°-266° Celsius or 482°-510°Fahrenheit. The
air temperature gage on the side of the tool should be used
as a guide.
E. Insert the desired Teflon tip in to the nozzle of the

welding gun. Setscrews hold the Teflon tip in place. Always
use heat protective gloves to perform this function, as the
tip will be hot. Use a flat die for flat passes and a
beveled die for fillet or corner welds.
F. Before welding, the heated gun barrel must be purged of any
cold or burnt material. Insert the required welding rod into
the tools conveyance wheel. The rod may be 3mm-4mm in
thickness depending on which gun is used. Ensure that the
rod is kept clean by tying a section of cotton rag around
the rod just before it enters the gun. The rod must be kept
clean and free of dirt, water and other contaminants. With
all heating parameters in place, stand to the back of the
gun and pull the trigger, locking it in place.
NEVER STAND IN THE FRONT OR TO THE SIDE OF GDN WHEN ENGAGING
THE TRIGGER! MAKE SURE NO ONE IS IN THE CLOSE PROXIMITY. IF
THE GIIN MALFUNCTIONS, HOT PLASTIC MAY SPRAY THE OPERATOR!
F. Purge the material at least the length of the tools barrel
or until the extruded rod has a smooth, consistent
appearance free of bumps.
G. Check the temperature of the extrudate by using a pyrometer
with a rod shaped thermocouple meant for plastics. Insert
the thermocouple into the plastic while it is beinq extruded
from the tip of the welding gun. Let the extrudate flow
around the thermocouple while maintaining the probe at the
end of the Teflon die. Hold in position until the
temperature stabilizes. If necessary, adjust the controller
temperature settings to achieve the required plastic
temperature of 240°-254° Celsius or 464°-490° Fahrenheit is
reached. The welding gun is now ready for use.
Ii. Record melt and air temperatures on the Extrusion Weld
Temperature Check List, Exhibit 1.60B.
II SURFACE PREPARATION
A. While the welding gun is reaching its set temperature, begin
preparing the area of the surface to be welded. It is
acceptable to prepare the surface at any time providing it
is no longer than 12 hours before the actual welding of the
part takes place. Periods of more than 12 hours may result
in an oxidation the surface. If this occurs the surface must

be prepared again. The part must be cleaned free of dirt
or any other contaminants. Use clean, lint free cotton rag.
It is acceptable to wipe the part with water or Isopropyl
Alcohol as long as it is dried before welding.
B. The surface area must be beveled by the use of a router,
planer, or scraper, to allow optimum penetration of the
extrudate. A planer that will bevel the concave portion of
the pipe may be used for the inside surface. A deeper bevel
may be reguired on thicker pipe walls. Make sure the gaps do
not exceed the width of the preheat or Teflon die. This will
cause the area of the surface to not be properly preheated
and result in a sunken weld.
C. After beveling the inside and outside surface of the part it
must be scraped with a hand scraper or planed on each side
of the area to be welded. Once prepared the part may be
tacked in place. Surface preparation must be evident outside
the welded area.
III WELDING PROCESS
A. With the heating parameters on the welding gun set and the
surface area prepared, it is now time to start the welding
process. Wear gloves and arm protectors to guard from any
hot parts on the welding tool. Obtain a Marcarta or similar
Teflon coated packer to seal the welds edges and if
necessary pack the extrudate while welding.
B. Pickup the welding gun with one hand on the side handle and
one on the trigger handle. NEVER GRAB THE GDN BY THE HEATED
BARREL! Purge the gun to remove the extrudate from the tip.
Position the gun over the area to be welded so that the
preheat nozzle is approximately 2" above the prepared
surface area. Move the gun back and forth to preheat a 2-3
inch area. In approximately 3-5 seconds the surface of the
part will become slightly glazed and softened.
C. Place the Teflon welding tip directly onto
surface of the part so the preheat nozzle i
the trigger on the welding gun and push the
mechanism in place. Keeping the welding gun
possible, wait until '�"-'�"of weld protrudes
of the Teflon tip and slowly move the tool

seam. Guide the tool in continuous, uniform movements,
applying pressure to the surface area. The travel speed of
the tool should not exceed the capability of the air heater
to preheat the downstream parent material. Once the process
is taking place it is permissible to tilt the tool back
around 5° to help pack the weld and seal the edges. (Note:
This process may be used to tack the parts in place before
the final welding process. The tacks should be 2-3 inches in
length and ground down below the outer surface before the
final weld pass is completed.)
D. While it is desirable to weld a joint in one entire pass,
situations may occur on large diameter fittings where it is
necessary to stop and start the weld. Whenever a weld is
restarted the area must be smooth and the weld should be
started 3-4 inches before the end weld and overlapped when
finished by 3-4 inches. Multiple weld passes must have
starts and stops staggered.
E. Allow the final weld to cool for approximately 30 minutes
before movement of the fitting or structure. Inspect the
welded surface visually for signs of cracks, poor adhesion,
stress marks, or improperly filled joint seams. On thicker
walls there may be some shrinkage of the weld. Any sunken
area with a depth of greater than 1/8" must be re-welded.
Any weld that is considered unacceptable must be completely
removed. The surface must be prepared again and the area re-
welded. Scraping down of the final weld should be avoided.
F. If unusual problems occur with the welding tool, always
contact your supervisor.
IV WELDER TESTING AND CERTIFICATION
A. After readinq the procedure the welder will be required to
take a written exam. A passinq grade of 700 or better will
be required. A test result lower than 70o will require the
welder to take the test over. This test will be required at
the time of certification only.
B. Using the welding parameter, surface preparation and welding
process information in this procedure, prepare two 6" wide
by 12" long sections of 1" thick HDPE flat sheet. Clamping

section over, die grind the qroove to expose the weld on the
opposite side, then weld. Tensile dog bones will be prepared
to make a comparison between the parent material and weld. A
900 or better score will need to be achieved to receive a
passing grade. This test will be required at the time of
certification only.

Note i: Strainer bars (intake screen) extend beyond intake flange (variable up to 2 inches). Dimension to intake flange is utilized here as a guide for spacing of opening to sump bottom.
Note 2: Intake bells are availa6le as 45° and 90° as well as the standard vertical unit. (Consult factory for other available intakes.) All intakes can be provided with a stand to support water
pump and ensure minimum inlet water requirements.
Note 3: If there are dimension limitations, consult factory as a shorter Mw� Mo�ing
dimension may be obtainable.

The Hydraflo is a patented, submersible pump thai uses the power of hydraulics to
drive the impeller via flexible hoses. This replaces a fixed motor, a long, rigid shaft
and the supporting structure common to most pumps that can move very large
quantities of water. The unique design allows the pump to be set up in hours - not
months - usually eliminates most of the civil worl<s necessary for installation -
saving a fot of money and time, allows the pump to be portable and provides
variable speed control.
Advantages __.__:...-,
Hydraflo pumps can be installed at any
angle - vertical, horizontal or any angle in
between, by simply changing the intake
bell.
=as_ -�:..._,,.�n
Hydraflo pumps can be installed within a
fraction of the time of conventional
lineshaft pumps. A typical installation can
be done in house, because they do not
require any critical alignment or the
extensive civil works required by other high
capacity pumps.
Hydraflos are designed for a very long life.
All components are picked for ruggedness
and durability. Many Hydraflos over 25
years old are still in daily use.
Because the standard design of MWI
Hydraflo pumps have large intal<e passages
i1 and low speeds, they can be instalfed
�•rt.�
�,,� _ — and operated continuously
��,,�-
at minimal
submergence.

.. �.. ..;'...%���
:'en��ires Less � <<<:i�-:e:�ance a�rd Costs
_,.�_ ... - ��,'.-=
The Hydraflo is a simple, straightforward
design that requires very little
maintenance. When used in portable mode,
pumps more water for less money and has
a smaller footprint than the many
centrfigual pumps thatwould be required
to take its place. Hydraflo pumps are
designed to run dry without damage to
their components.
"+r"�..v._ � ' �_. =.., -
Pump speed can be varied manually by
regulating engine speed. An automatic
variable speed option is also available.
We offer several hydraulic fluid options
which are readily biodegradable and meet
the EPA toxicity limits. Hydraflo hydraulic
tanl<s are small and have an engine shut
down switch activated by small amounts of
fluid loss.

Method of Operation
Schematic A shows how the hydraulic system works. Note that
the prime mover can be a diesel engine, electric motor or a
combination of both. It drives a hydraulic pump which in turn
supplies oil to the hydraulic motor in the water pump. This
spins the hydraulic motor which is directly connected to the
propeller. The hydraulic oil is then returned to the oil reservoir
through the return filter. Then, the hydraulic oil returns through
a strainer and back to the hydraulic pump, completing the circuit.
A relief valve from the high pressure side to the oil reservoir,
serves to by-pass the power transmission fluid and divert flow
in the event that an object gets lodged in the propeller. This is a
very important safety feature available only with Hydraflo
systems which protects all components from shocl< I�ads. Where
variable flows are needed (such as in sewage effluent or "piped in"
stormwater pumping), the propeller speeds can be infinitely
adjusted automatically through the hydraulic power
transmission system to match up with any combination of
water flows and head conditions.
