RECOMMENDATION:
1. Authorize execution of a contract with Willco Underground, LLC, in the amount of $1,054,059.00, for
the Benbrook Water Authority Water Connection Project; and
2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance adjusting appropriations in the Water & Sewer Capital
Project 2019 Fund by increasing appropriations in the Benbrook WaterAuthority Water Connection
project (City Project No. 105248) in the amount of $1,230,506.00 and decreasing appropriations is
the Unspecified-All Funds project (City Project No. UNSPEC) by the same amount.
DISCUSSION:
This project provides for an emergency water connection between the Benbrook WaterAuthority and the
City of Fort Worth Water Department to allow each utility to take water from the other should the need ever
arise.
The project was advertised for bids on February 1, 2024, and February 8, 2024, in the Fort Worth Star-
Telegram. On February 29, 2024, the following bids were received:
In addition to the contract amount, $123,744.00 is required for project management, material testing and
inspection, and $52,703.00 is provided for project contingencies.
This project will have no impact on the Water Department's operating budget when completed.

identified, and to comply with bond covenants. The actions in the Mayor & Council Communciation
(M&C) will appropriate funds in support of the Water's portion of the City of Fort Worth's Fiscal Years
2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program, as follows:

VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW NON RESIDENT BIDDER
Texas Government Code Chapter 2252 was adopted for the award of contracts to nonresident bidders. This law
provides that, in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, nonresident bidders (out-of-state contractors
whose corporate offices or principal place of business are outside the State of Texas) bid projects for construction,
improvements, supplies or services in Texas at an amount lower than the lowest Texas resident bidder by the
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 fiiled 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
must check the box in Section B.
A. Nonresident bidders in the State of , our principal place of business,
are required to be percent lower than resident bidders by State Law. A copy of the
statute is attached.
Nonresident bidders in the State of , our principal place of business,
are not required to underbid resident bidders.
B. The principal place of business of o r company or our parent company or majority owner is
in the State of Texas. �

STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATION DOCUMENTS [Insert Project Number]
Revised August 13, 2021
Each project is represented by City’s master project schedule that encompasses the 1
entire scope of activities envisioned by the City to properly deliver the work. When the 2
City contracts with a Contractor to perform construction of the Work, the Contractor3
will develop and maintain a schedule for their scope of work in alignment with the 4
City’s standard schedule requirements as defined herein. The data and information of 5
each such schedule will be leveraged and become integral in the master project 6
schedule as deemed appropriate by the City’s Project Control Specialist and approved 7
by the City’s Project Manager. 8
9
1. Master Project Schedule10
The master project schedule is a holistic representation of the scheduled activities 11
and milestones for the total project and be Critical Path Method (CPM) based. The 12
City’s Project Manager is accountable for oversight of the development and 13
maintaining a master project schedule for each project. When the City contracts for 14
the design and/or construction of the project, the master project schedule will 15
incorporate elements of the Design and Construction schedules as deemed 16
appropriate by the City’s Project Control Specialist. The assigned City Project 17
Control Specialist creates and maintains the master project schedule in P6 (City’s 18
scheduling software). 19
20
2. Construction Schedule 21
The Contractor is responsible for developing and maintaining a schedule for the 22
scope of the Contractor’s contractual requirements. The Contractor will issue an 23
initial schedule for review and acceptance by the City’s Project Control Specialist 24
and the City’s Project Manager as a baseline schedule for Contractor’s scope of 25
work. Contractor will issue current, accurate updates of their schedule (Progress 26
Schedule) to the City at the end of each month throughout the life of their work. 27
B. Schedule Tiers 28
The City has a portfolio of projects that vary widely in size, complexity and content 29
requiring different scheduling to effectively deliver each project. The City uses a 30
“tiered” approach to align the proper schedule with the criteria for each project. The 31
City's Project Manager determines the appropriate schedule tier for each project, and 32
includes that designation and the associated requirements in the Contractor’s scope of 33
work. The following is a summary of the “tiers”. 34
35
1. Tier 1: Small Size and Short Duration Project (design not required) 36
The City develops and maintains a Master Project Schedule for the project. No 37
schedule submittal is required from Contractor. City’s Project Control Specialist 38
acquires any necessary schedule status data or information through discussions with 39
the respective party on an as-needed basis. 40
41
2. Tier 2: Small Size and Short to Medium Duration Project42
The City develops and maintains a Master Project Schedule for the project. The 43
Contractor identifies “start” and “finish” milestone dates on key elements of their 44
work as agreed with the City’s Project Manager at the kickoff of their work effort. 45
The Contractor issues to the City, updates to the “start” and “finish” dates for such 46
milestones at the end of each month throughout the life of their work on the project. 47

The City develops and maintains a Master Project Schedule for the project. The 1
Contractor develops a Baseline Schedule and maintains the schedule of their 2
respective scope of work on the project at a level of detail (generally Level 3) and in 3
alignment with the WBS structure in Section 1.4.H as agreed by the Project 4
Manager. The Contractor issues to the City, updates of their respective schedule 5
(Progress Schedule) at the end of each month throughout the life of their work on the 6
project. 7
C. Schedule Types 8
Project delivery for the City utilizes two types of schedules as noted below. The City 9
develops and maintains a Master Project Schedule as a “baseline” schedule and issue 10
monthly updates to the City Project Manager (end of each month) as a “progress” 11
schedule. The Contractor preparesand submits each schedule type to fulfill their 12
contractual requirements. 13
14
1. Baseline Schedule 15
The Contractor develops and submits to the City, an initial schedule for their scope 16
of work in alignment with this specification. Once reviewed and accepted by the 17
City, it becomes the “Baseline” schedule and is the basis against which all progress 18
is measured. The baseline schedule will be updated when there is a change or 19
addition to the scope of work impacting the duration of the work, and only after 20
receipt of a duly authorized change order issued by the City. In the event progress is 21
significantly behind schedule, the City’s Project Manager may authorize an update 22
to the baseline schedule to facilitate a more practical evaluation of progress. An 23
example of a Baseline Schedule is provided in Specification 01 32 16.1 24
Construction Project Schedule Baseline Example.25
26
2. Progress Schedule 27
The Contractor updates their schedule at the end of each month to represent the 28
progress achieved in the work which includes any impact from authorized changes 29
in the work. The updated schedule must accurately reflect the current status of the 30
work at that point in time and is referred to as the “Progress Schedule”. The City’s 31
Project Manager and Project Control Specialist reviews and accepts each progress 32
schedule. In the event a progress schedule is deemed not acceptable, the 33
unacceptable issues are identified by the City within 5 working days and the 34
Contractor must provide an acceptable progress schedule within 5 working days 35
after receipt of non-acceptance notification. An example of a Progress Schedule is 36
provided in Specification 01 32 16.2 Construction Project Schedule Progress 37
Example. 38
D. City Standard Schedule requirements 39

The City’s standard calendar for schedule development purposes is based on a 5-day 1
workweek and accounts for the City’s eight standard holidays (New Years, Martin 2
Luther King, Memorial, Independence, Labor, Thanksgiving, day after Thanksgiving, 3
Christmas). The Contractor will establish a schedule calendar as part of the schedule 4
development process and provide to the Project Control Specialist as part of the basis 5
for their schedule. Variations between the City’s calendar and the Contractor’s 6
calendar must be resolved prior to the City’s acceptance of their Baseline project 7
schedule. 8

H. WBS & Milestone Standards for Schedule Development 10
The scope of work to be accomplished by the Contractor is represented in the schedule 11
in the form of a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). The WBS is the basis for the 12
development of the schedule activities and shall be imbedded and depicted in the 13
schedule. 14
15
The following is a summary of the standards to be followed in preparing and 16
maintaining a schedule for project delivery. 17
18
1. Contractor is required to utilize the City’s WBS structure and respective 19
project type template for “Construction” as shown in Section 1.4.H below. 20
Additional activities may be added to Levels 1 - 4 to accommodate the needs 21
of the organization executing the work. Specifically the Contractor will add 22
activities under WBS XXXXXX.80.83 “Construction Execution” that 23
delineates the activities associated with the various components of the work. 24
25
2. Contractor is required to adhere to the City’s Standard Milestones as shown 26
in Section 1.4.I below. Contractor will include additional milestones 27
representing intermediate deliverables as required to accurately reflect their 28
scope of work. 29
30
I. Schedule Activities 31
Activities are the discrete elements of work that make up the schedule. They will be 32
organized under the umbrella of the WBS. Activity descriptions should adequately 33
describe the activity, and in some cases the extent of the activity. All activities are 34
logically tied with a predecessor and a successor. The only exception to this rule is for 35
“project start” and “project finish” milestones. 36
37
The activity duration is based on the physical amount of work to be performed for the 38
stated activity, with a maximum duration of 20 working days OR a continuous activity 39
in one location. If the work for any one activity exceeds 20 days, break that activity 40
down incrementally to achieve this duration constraint. Any exception to this requires 41
review and acceptance by the City’s Project Control Specialist. 42
43
J. Change Orders 44
When a Change Order is issued by the City, the impact is incorporated into the 45
previously accepted baseline schedule as an update, to clearly show impact to the 46
project timeline. The Contractor submits this updated baseline schedule to the City for 47

These procedures are intended to provide a standard method for construction staking services
associated with the City of Fort Worth projects. These are not to be considered all inclusive, but only as
a general guideline. For projects on TXDOT right-of-way or through joint TXDOT participation,
adherence to the TXDOT Survey Manual shall be followed and if a discrepancy arises, the TXDOT
manual shall prevail. (http://onlinemanuals.txdot.gov/txdotmanuals/ess/ess.pdf)
If you have a unique circumstance, please consult with the project manager, inspector, or survey
department at 817-392-7925.

IV. Survey Equipment, Control, and Datum Standards
A. City Benchmarks
All city benchmarks can be found here: http://fortworthtexas.gov/itsolutions/GIS/
Look for ‘Zoning Maps’. Under ‘Layers’ , expand ‘Basemap Layers’, and check on
‘Benchmarks’.
B. Conventional or Robotic Total Station Equipment
I. A minimum of a 10 arc-second instrument is required.
II. A copy of the latest calibration report may be requested by the City at any time.
It is recommended that an instrument be calibrated by certified technician at
least 1 occurrence every 6 months.
C. Network/V.R.S. and static GPS Equipment
I. It is critical that the surveyor verify the correct horizontal and vertical datum
prior commencing work. A site calibration may be required and shall consist of
at least 4 control points spaced evenly apart and in varying quadrants.
Additional field checks of the horizontal and vertical accuracies shall be
completed and the City may ask for a copy of the calibration report at any time.
II. Network GPS such as the Western Data Systems or SmartNet systems may be
used for staking of property/R.O.W, forced-main water lines, and rough-grade
only. No GPS staking for concrete, sanitary sewer, storm drain, final grade, or
anything that needs vertical grading with a tolerance of 0.25’ or less is
allowed.
D. Control Points Set
I. All control points set shall be accompanied by a lath with the appropriate
Northing, Easting, and Elevation (if applicable) of the point set. Control points
can be set rebar, ‘X’ in concrete, or any other appropriate item with a stable
base and of a semi-permanent nature. A rebar cap is optional, but preferred if
the cap is marked ‘control point’ or similar wording.
II. Datasheets are required for all control points set.
Datasheet should include:
A. Horizontal and Vertical Datum used, Example: N.A.D.83, North Central Zone
4202, NAVD 88 Elevations
B. Grid or ground distance. – If ground, provide scale factor used and base
point coordinate, Example: C.S.F.=0.999125, Base point=North: 0, East=0
C. Geoid model used, Example: GEOID12A

E. Preferred Grid Datum
Although many plan sets can be in surface coordinates, the City’s preferred grid datum
is listed below. Careful consideration must be taken to verify what datum each project is
in prior to beginning work. It is essential the surveyor be familiar with coordinate
transformations and how a grid/surface/assumed coordinate system affect a project.
Projected Coordinate
System:NAD_1983_StatePlane_Texas_North_Central_FIPS_4202_Feet
Projection: Lambert_Conformal_Conic
False_Easting: 1968500.00000000
False_Northing: 6561666.66666667
Central_Meridian: -98.50000000
Standard_Parallel_1: 32.13333333
Standard_Parallel_2: 33.96666667
Latitude_Of_Origin: 31.66666667
Linear Unit: Foot_US
Geographic Coordinate System: GCS_North_American_1983
Datum: D_North_American_1983
Prime Meridian: Greenwich
Angular Unit: Degree
Note: Regardless of what datum each particular project is in, deliverables to the City
must be converted/translated into this preferred grid datum. 1 copy of the deliverable
should be in the project datum (whatever it may be) and 1 copy should be in the NAD83,
TX North Central 4202 zone. See Preferred File Naming Convention below
F. Preferred Deliverable Format
.txt .csv .dwg .job
G. Preferred Data Format
P,N,E,Z,D,N
Point Number, Northing, Easting, Elevation, Description, Notes (if applicable)
H. Preferred File Naming Convention
This is the preferred format: City Project Number_Description_Datum.csv

PART 3 - EXECUTION
3.1 INSTALLERS
A. Tolerances:
1. The staked location of any improvement or facility should be as accurate as
practical and necessary. The degree of precision required is dependent on many
factors all of which must remain judgmental. The tolerances listed hereafter are
based on generalities and, under certain circumstances, shall yield to specific
requirements. The surveyor shall assess any situation by review of the overall plans
and through consultation with responsible parties as to the need for specific
tolerances.
a. Earthwork: Grades for earthwork or rough cut should not exceed 0.1 ft. vertical
tolerance. Horizontal alignment for earthwork and rough cut should not exceed
1.0 ft. tolerance.
b. Horizontal alignment on a structure shall be within .0.1ft tolerance.
c. Paving or concrete for streets, curbs, gutters, parking areas, drives, alleys and
walkways shall be located within the confines of the site boundaries and,
occasionally, along a boundary or any other restrictive line. Away from any
restrictive line, these facilities should be staked with an accuracy producing no
more than 0.05ft. tolerance from their specified locations.
d. Underground and overhead utilities, such as sewers, gas, water, telephone and
electric lines, shall be located horizontally within their prescribed areas or
easements. Within assigned areas, these utilities should be staked with an
accuracy producing no more than 0.1 ft tolerance from a specified location.
e. The accuracy required for the vertical location of utilities varies widely. Many
underground utilities require only a minimum cover and a tolerance of 0.1 ft.
should be maintained. Underground and overhead utilities on planned profile,
but not depending on gravity flow for performance, should not exceed 0.1 ft.
tolerance.
B.
specifications or in compliance to standards. The City reserves the right to request a
calibration report at any time and recommends regular maintenance schedule be
performed by a certified technician every 6 months.
1. Field measurements of angles and distances shall be done in such fashion as to
satisfy the closures and tolerances expressed in Part 3.1.A.
2. Vertical locations shall be established from a pre-established benchmark and
checked by closing to a different bench mark on the same datum.
3. Construction survey f
or conflicts found shall be reported promptly to the City.
4. Revisions, corrections and other pertinent data shall be logged for future reference.

that contains lead. The Contractor shall meet the latest criteria of the Texas Air Control
Board and the Environmental Protection Agency as it pertains to surface preparation and
painting procedures, for the referenced condition.
4. Care shall be exercised not to damage adjacent work during abrasive blast operations.
Surfaces not intended to be painted shall be suitably protected from the effects of cleaning
and painting operations. Fabricated, assembled items which are normally cleaned and
painted in the shop in accordance with the manufacturer's standard practice will be
considered for exemption from the detailed cleaning and painting requirement set forth
herein. Removable equipment adjacent to surfaces to be painted shall if necessary, be
disconnected and moved to permit cleaning and painting of said surfaces, and replaced by
workmen skilled in the trades involved.
5. Prime and finish coats which are listed in the Painting Schedule are compatible finishes.
The Contractor shall follow the recommendations of the paint manufacturers, subject to
the approval of the Engineer, to insure a good bond between coats.
6. The standard of cleanliness for the surface preparation shall be evaluated with the use of:
S.S.P.C. Pectoral SSPC-VIS 1, Guide and Reference Photographs for Steel Surfaces, or
Swedish Pectoral Standards.
7. Remove all dust and abrasives from freshly blasted surfaces by brushing, blowing or
vacuuming with clean dry air, paying special attention to corners and joints of connecting
members.

S:\NTX-LAND\0002\300 SUPPORT�360 Water\Benbrook Connection\Specs\Misc\09900.doc
PAINTING
a. Oil, grease, soil, drawing and cutting compounds, and other containments shall be
removed in accordance with SSPC-SP 1, Solvent Cleaning.
b. After oil and surface contaminants have been removed, and before sandblasting, all
weld splatter must be removed. All rough welds and sharp edges must be ground to
give a smooth rounded corner.
c. The surface shall be blast cleaned to a Commercial finish by removing mill scale,
rust, rust scale, paint or foreign material by any of the recommended methods
outlined in SSPC-SP 6/NACE 3, Commercial Blast Cleaning. Mechanical
equipment and surfaces inaccessible to blast cleaning shall be cleaned in
accordance with SSPC-SP 3, Power Tool Cleaning.
d. The blast cleaned surface shall be primed with primer specified for atmospheric
exposed steel before any rust bloom forms. Weathering of fabricated unpainted
steel for any purpose will not be permitted unless the surface is to be subsequently
blast cleaned off all mill scale and rust to base metal.
2. Welds and Damaged Areas. All welds and all damaged areas of shop-primed surfaces
and of field-primed surfaces shall be field cleaned, including blast cleaning, and reprimed
as specified.
3. Cleaning and Pretreatment of Ferrous Surfaces in Underwater Exposure (Cleaning
System No. 2). SurFaces of structural components which will be subject to extended
periods of immersion or otherwise as required shall be cleaned in the following manner:
a. Oil, grease, soil drawing and cutting compounds, and other contaminants shall be
removed in accordance with SSPC-SP 1, Solvent Cleaning.
b. After oil and surface contaminants have been removed, and before abrasive
blasting, all weld splatter must be removed. All rough welds and sharp edges must
be ground to give a smooth rounded contour.
c. The surface shall be blast cleaned to a Near-White Metal finish, removing of all mill
scale, rust, rust scale, chlorine contamination, paint or foreign matter by any of the
recommended methods outlined in SSPC-SP 10/NACE 2, Near White Blast
Cleaning.
d. Surfaces to be coated which will not be accessible after erection shall be cleaned
and painted before becoming inaccessible. In no event shall blast cleaned surfaces
stand overnight without having received the specified pretreatment and the first coat
of paint prescribed by the schedule. Structural features or components which are
subject in part to atmospheric exposure and in part to immersion in water shall be
prepared and painted as though the entire component were subject to immersion.
Pre-erected or construction period coatings shall be maintained in good condition by
recleaning and touching up any areas damaged during the construction period.
Prior to the field application of subsequent coats to obtain the prescribed total film
thickness, soiled areas of the pre-erection coating shall be thoroughly cleaned with
mineral spirits and all welds or other unpainted or damaged areas shall be cleaned,
including blast cleaning, and primed as specified and in such a manner as to make
them equivalent to adjacent, undamaged paint surfaces.
C. Cleaning of Copper, Galvanized Steel, Stainless Steel Aluminum and Aluminum Alloy Surfaces.
Unless otherwise specifically provided, galvanized, stainless steel and aluminum surfaces shall
not be painted, but shall be washed with clean mineral spirits per SSPC-SP 1, Solvent Cleaning
to remove oil and grease. Exposed copper surfaces shall be buffed or polished to bright color,
the surface cleaned with mild phosphoric acid cleaner and the finish coat applied. The
preparation of copper surfaces apply only if they are to be painted.
D. Inspection of Surface Preparation. The Engineer or Inspector may inspect all details of surface
preparation to insure that surfaces have been properly cleaned, that treating solutions are of the
Page 9 of 12 09900
08/05/22 S:\NTX-LAND\0002\300 SUPPORT�360 Water\Benbrook Connection\Specs\Misc\09900.doc
PAINTING
specified type and concentration, and have been properly applied, that treated surfaces are free
from unneutralized residue, and that surfaces are dry and ready to receive paint.
E. Machined Surfaces. Machine finished and other bare metal surfaces which are not to be
painted, but which will require temporary protection during construction, shall be treated with a
rust preventative compound as approved by the Engineer unless otherwise specifically
indicated.
3.02 PAINT APPLICATION
A. General. All work shall be done in a workmanlike manner, so that the finished coating will be free
from holidays, pin holes, bubbles, runs, drips, ridges, waves, laps, unnecessary brush marks
and variations in color, texture and gloss. All coats shall be applied in such a manner as to
produce an even film of uniform thickness. The Painting Contractor shall furnish workers who
perform quality work and who are experienced and knowledgeable in the surface preparation
and application of high performance industrial coatings.
Painting application procedures shall conform to the standards of craftsmanship discussed in the
Society for Protective Coatings Painting Manual, Volume 1, Good Paintinq Practice. These
techniques include, but are not limited to, multiple passes of the spray gun, with each pass
overlapped 50%, and "Cross Hatching" successive coats of paint.
B. Labeling, Storage, Mixing, and Film Thickness. All materials shall be brought to the painting job
site in the original sealed and labeled containers of the paint manufacturer and shall be subject
to inspection by the Engineer. The painter shall apply each coating at the rate and in the
manner specified by the manufacturer. If material has thickened or must be diluted for
application by spray gun, the coating shall be built up to the same film thickness achieved with
undiluted material. Deficiencies in film thickness shall be corrected by the application of
additional coats of paint. Paints which can be harmed by exposure to cold weather shall be
stored in heated shelters. During application, the paint in the spray tank or other working
container shall be not less than 50 degrees Fahrenheit.
Coating materials shall be stored in a location approved by the Engineer for that purpose. The
storage areas shall be kept clean and any damage caused by the Painting Contractor shall be
repaired. Oil rags and waste or other fire hazards shall be removed from the storage areas each
night and disposed of or stored in closed metal containers in accordance with applicable fire and
safety regulations.
C. Safety. The Painting Contractor shall diligently observe all rules of safety, ventilation, fire
hazards, and shall identify by signs or marking all physical hazards as required by OSHA, and
described in the Federal Register, Volume 37, No. 202 under Paragraph 1901.44 "Safety Color
Code, for Marking Physical Hazards," and EPA regulations, and in particular as spelled out in
Section 7"Safety Precautions" of the AWWA Standard for Paintinq Steel Water Storaqe Tanks,
D102-latest edition.
Paints and coatings specified herein are hazardous materials. Vapors may be toxic or
explosive. Protective equipment, approved by the appropriate regulatory agency, is mandatory
for all personnel involved in the painting and coatings operations.
D. Atmospheric Conditions. No paint shall be applied when the surrounding air temperature, as
measured in the shade, is below 40 degrees Fahrenheit. No paint shall be applied when the
temperature of the surface to be painted is below 40 degrees Fahrenheit. No paint shall be
applied when surface and air temperatures are less than 5 degrees Fahrenheit above the dew
point. Paint shall not be applied to wet or damp surfaces, and shall not be applied in rain, snow,
Page 10 of 12 09900
08/05/22 S:\NTX-LAND\0002\300 SUPPORT�360 Water\Benbrook Connection\Specs\Misc\09900.doc
PAINTING
fog or mist, or when the relative humidity exceeds 85% or when it can be anticipated that the air
temperature will drop below 40 degrees Fahrenheit within 18 hours after the application of the
paint. Dew or moisture condensation should be anticipated, and if such conditions are
prevalent, painting shall be delayed until mid-morning to be certain that the surfaces are dry.
The day's painting shall be completed well in advance of the probable time of day when
condensation will occur, in order to permit the film an appreciable drying time prior to the
formation of moisture. During periods of inclement weather, painting may be continued by
enclosing the surface with temporary shelters and applying artificial heat, provided the minimum
air, surface and paint temperatures prescribed are maintained. Paint shall not be applied to
surfaces which are hot enough to cause blistering or pinholing of the film.
E. Protection of Paint Surfaces. Where shelter or heat is provided for paint surfaces during
inclement weather, such protective measures shall be maintained until the paint film has dried,
or discontinuance of the measures is authorized. Items which have been painted shall not be
handled, worked on, or otherwise disturbed until the paint coat is completely dry and hard. After
delivery at the site of permanent erection or installation, all shop-coated metal work shall be
stored out of contact with the ground in such a manner as will minimize the formation of water-
holding pockets and in such a location as will minimize soiling, contamination and deterioration
of the paint film. Shop-coated metal shall be repainted or retouched from time to time with the
specified paint, whenever, in the opinion of the Engineer, it becomes necessary to maintain the
integrity of the film.
F. Contacting Surfaces. When riveted or bolted contact is to exist between surfaces of ferrous or
other metal parts of substantially similar chemical composition, such surfaces will not be
required to be painted. Contacting surfaces formed by high-strength bolt connections shall not
be painted. Where an electrical potential is apt to exist between metal surfaces or unlike
chemical composition in riveted or bolted contact, each of the contacting surfaces shall be
cleaned, pretreated, and given one coat of primer, all as specified for the particular metals
involved. Where a non-metal surface is to be in riveted or bolted contact with a metal surface,
the contacting surfaces of the metal shall be cleaned, pretreated if required, and given three
coats of the specified primer.
G. Method of Paint Application. On metal surfaces, each coat of paint shall be applied at the rate
specified by the manufacturer to achieve the minimum dry mil thickness required. On concrete
and/or masonry, application rates will vary according to surface texture. However, in no case
shall the manufacturer's stated coverage rate be exceeded. On porous surfaces, a protective
and decorative finish shall be achieved. Deficiencies in film thickness shall be corrected by the
application of an additional coat(s) of paint. Where conditions are other than normal because of
the weather or because painting must be done in confined spaces, longer drying times will be
necessary. Additional coats of paint shall not be applied, nor shall units be returned to service
until paints are thoroughly dry. Where thinning is necessary, only the products of the
manufacturer furnishing the paint, and for the particular purpose, shall be allowed, and all such
thinning shall be done strictly in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, as well as with
the full knowledge and approval of the Engineer.
Where two or more coats are specified, first coat shall be tinted a minimum of three shades
lighter than the color specified, and progressively to the final coat, and subject to approval.
H. Coating Progress. Where field painting on any type of surface has commenced on any portion of
the work, the complete painting operation, including priming and finishing coats, on that portion
of the work, shall be completed as soon as practicable without prolonged delays. Sufficient time
as recommended by the paint manufacturer shall elapse between successive coats to permit
them to dry properly for recoating and this minimum drying period shall be modified as
necessary to suit adverse weather conditions. Maximum elapsed time between successive
coats shall not exceed the time recommended by the coating manufacturer. The application of
another coat of paint shall not cause such film irregularities as lifting or loss of adhesion of the
undercoat, and the undercoat shall have dried sufficiently so as not to retard the drying of the
Page 11 of 12 09900

PAINTING
next coat. At all times prior to final acceptance of the work when, in the opinion of the Engineer,

system as indicated on the electrical Drawings. The Contractor shall give special
attention to the grounding of service equipment, structures and fences to comply with the
NEC, local authorities and the serving utility company.
B. Electrical equipment, buildings, tanks, and other structures and equipment shall be
grounded as indicated on the Drawings. Where ground rods are required, the rods shall
be 10 feet long, 3/4-inch diameter, copper-clad steel ground rods, or as specified on the
Drawings. Rods shall be driven vertically, and the top of the rods shall be a minimum of
18 inches below finished grade, or as specified on the Drawings.
C. Local pushbutton and selector switch stations, two-wire control devices, disconnect
switches, lighting transformers, panelboards, operator panels, benchboards, and the
enclosures of other electrical apparatus shall be grounded through an equipment
grounding conductor run with the power supply or control circuit conductors or shall be
grounded as shown on the Drawings.
D. Ground medium voltage motors, in addition to the grounding conductors in the motor
feeder cable, with a separate No. 4/0 AWG cable to motor frame.
E. Motors having power supplied by multiconductor cable shall be grounded by a separate
grounding conductor in the cable and where supplied by single conductor cable in
conduit by a grounding conductor pulled in the conduit. Connect ground conductors to
the ground bus in the motor control center and to the ground terminal provided in the
motor conduit box.
F. Do not ground the insulated bearing pedestals of large motors.
G. Connect ladder-type cable trays to the grounding electrode system.
H. Install a warning ribbon approximately 12 inches below finished grade directly above the
ground grid.
I. Connect fence posts of chain link and metal fences to the main ground loop at least
every 50 feet.
3.03 INSTALLATION
A. Equipment Grounding:
1. Make grounding connections to surfaces, which are dry and cleaned of paint,
rust, oxides, scales, grease and dirt to ensure good conductivity. Clean copper
and galvanized steel to remove oxide before making welds or connections.
2. Use the exothermic welding process for below-grade grounding connections,
except at ground rods. Use mechanical connectors or thermal connections for
above-grade grounding connections as shown on the Drawings.
GROUNDING AND BONDING
05/11/2022 Page 6 of 7 16170
3. Make grounding connections to electrical equipment, vessels, mechanical
equipment and ground rods in accordance with the Drawings.
4. Ground tanks and vessels by making connections to integral structural supports
or to existing grounding lugs or pads, and not to the body of the tank or vessel.
5. Leave ground connections to equipment visible for inspection. Protect them with
PVC non-metallic conduit as indicated on the Drawings.
6. Make connections to motor frames and ground buses with lugs attached to the
equipment by means of bolts. Do not use motor anchor bolts or equipment
housing for fastening lugs of grounding cable.
7. Where the wiring for lighting systems consists of single conductor cables in
conduit, provide each conduit with an equipment-grounding conductor. Use a
grounding conductor with green colored insulation and ground equipment in the
lighting system.
B. Raceway and Support Systems Grounding:
1. Install raceway, cable rack or tray and conduit so that it is bonded together and
permanently grounded to the equipment ground bus, according to the Drawings.
Connection to conduit may be grounding bushing or ground clamp.
2. Install raceway at low voltage motor control centers or other low voltage control
equipment so that it is bonded and grounded, except that any conduit which is
effectively grounded to the sheet metal enclosure by bonding bushing or hubs
need not be otherwise bonded.
3. Where a grounding conductor is run in or on a cable tray, bond the grounding
conductor to each section of cable tray with a cable tray ground clamp.
4. Where only grounding conductor is installed in a metal conduit, bond both ends
of the conduit to the grounding conductor.
5. Provide flexible "jumpers" around raceway expansion joints. Use copper bonding
straps for steel conduit. Install jumpers across cable tray joints, which have been
parted to allow for expansion and any hinged cable tray connections.
C. Fences and Gates:
1. Ground fences, fence posts and gates to the underground grid as shown on the
Drawings.
D. Power System Grounding:
1. Solidly ground the secondary neutral of the main power supply transformer either
to the ground grid or through an impedance. See Drawings for details.
2. Solidly ground the neutral of lighting, instrument and control transformers.
E. Cable Armor and Shields:
GROUNDING AND BONDING
05/11/2022 Page 7 of 7 16170
1. For shielded control cable, terminate and ground the shield at one end only,
preferably at the control panel end for instrument and communication cable and
at the supply end for electronic power cables. Maintain shield continuity by
jumpering the ground shield across connection point where it is broken at
junction boxes, or other splice points. Insulate these points from ground.
2. Connect the ground wire in power cable assemblies at each terminal point to a
ground bus, if available, or to the equipment enclosure. Do not carry these
ground wires through a "doughnut" current transformer (CT) used for ground fault
relaying; do carry ground leads from stress cones through CTs. Ground power
cable armor and shield at each terminal point.
F. Test Wells:
1. Provide access (test wells) for testing the ground grid system at one or several
ground rod locations. Make test wells of a pipe surrounding the rod and
connections with a cover placed on top at grade level. See Drawings for details.
3.04 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL
A. Test:
1. Perform ground resistance tests after underground installation and connections
to building steel are complete, unless otherwise noted on applicable Drawings.
2. Make tests at each ground test well using a "fall of potential" test method. Each
ground test well shall not exceed a maximum resistance of 5 ohms. Where
measured values exceed this figure, install additional ground rods as required to
reduce the resistance to the specified limit.
B. Inspection:
1. Inspection of the grounding system by the Engineer and the local Code Inspector
must take place before the grid trenches are backfilled.
3.05 RESTORATION
A. Restore surface features at areas disturbed by excavation and reestablish original grades
except as otherwise indicated.

Re: Final Geotechnical Exploration
Pavement Design Recommendations
Ventana Phase 2
Off Jerry Dunn Parkway
Fort Worth, Texas
ALPHA Report No. W 170598-A
Submitted herein are the recommended pavement sections for new public streets, which include
the interior streets within the proposed residential subdivision (Ventana Phase 2), and a feeder
extension to Jerry Dunn Parkway. The proposed subdivision is generally located about 1,300 ft
northwest of the intersection of Jerry Dunn Parkway with Green Links Drive in Fort Worth, Texas.
This study was authorized by Mr. Peter Pincoffs and performed in accordance with ALPHA
Proposal No. 57562-revl dated March 6, 2017 and 57562-1 dated May 16, 2017. This report is an
extension of ALPHA Report No. W170598 dated May 17, 2017 which contains geotechnical
recommendations for residential foundations.
The purpose of this study is to develop pavement sections for the planned streets described above
in accordance with the City of Fort Worth Pavement Design Manual (January 2015). We
understand the proposed streets within the subdivision will be classified as "Residential-Urban",
"Collector" or "Arterial", as described in the referenced manual.
PURPOSE AND SCOPE
The purpose of this geotechnical exploration is for ALPHA TESTING, INC. ("ALPHA") to
evaluate for the "Client" some of the physical and engineering properties of subsurface materials
at selected locations on the subject site with respect to formulation of appropriate geotechnical
design parameters for the proposed pavement. The field exploration was accomplished by
securing subsurface samples from widely spaced test borings performed across the expanse of the
site. Engineering analyses were performed from results of the field exploration and results of
laboratory tests performed on representative samples.
Also included are general comments pertaining to reasonably anticipated construction problems
and recommendations concerning earthwork and quality control testing during construction. This
information can be used to evaluate subsurface conditions and to aid in ascertaining construction
meets project specifications.
ALPHA Report No. W 170598-A
�
�
�
Recommendations provided in this report were developed from information obtained in test
borings depicting subsurface conditions only at the specific boring locations and at the particular
time designated on the logs. Subsurface conditions at other locations may differ from those
observed at the boring locations, and subsurface conditions at boring locations may vary at
different times of the year. The scope of work may not fully define the variability of subsurface
materials and conditions that are present on the site.
The nature and extent of variations between borings may not become evident until construction.
If significant variations then appear evident, our office should be contacted to re-evaluate our
recommendations after performing on-site observations and possibly other tests.
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATIONS
Provided below is a summary of pavement section requirements for proposed new streets at the
subject project.

Detailed recommendations and analyses used to develop the summary in Table A above are
provided below in this report.
FIELD EXPLORATION
Subsurface conditions on the site were explored by drilling a total of 56 test borings to a depth of
about 20 ft each and three (3) test borings to a depth of 25 ft each in general accordance with
ASTM D 420 using standard rotary drilling equipment. The approximate location of each test
boring is shown on the Boring Location Plan, Figure 1, attached to this report.
Subsurface types encountered during the field exploration are presented on the Log of Boring
sheets (boring logs) attached to this report. The boring logs contain our Field Technician's and
Engineer's interpretation of conditions believed to exist between actual samples retrieved.
Therefore, the boring logs contain both factual and interpretive information. Lines delineating
subsurface strata on the boring logs are approximate and the actual transition between strata may
be gradual.

LABORATORY TESTS
�
�
�
Selected samples of the subsurface materials were tested in the laboratory to evaluate their
engineering properties as a basis in providing recommendations for pavement sections design and
earthwork construction. The following laboratory tests were performed to facilitate pavement
section recommendations:
• Moisture Content (ASTM D 2216)
• Atterberg-Limits (ASTM D 4318)
� Unconfined Compressive Strength (ASTM D 2166)
� Sulfate Content (TX-145-E Part II)
• Lime Series (Plasticity Index vs. Lime Content)
In addition to conventional laboratory testing to assess engineering properties of the subsurface
soils, a bulk sample was obtained from the vicinity of Boring 20 for moisture-density relationship
tests (standard Proctor, ASTM D 698) and California Bearing Ratio tests (CBR, ASTM D 1183).
Individual test results are presented on the attached Log of Boring or summary data sheets.
GENERAL SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Based on the Geologic Atlas of Texas available from the Texas Bureau of Economic Geology,
published by the University of Texas at Austin, the project site lies within three (3) geological
formations. The majority of the northern third of the site lies with the Duck Creek Limestone
formation. The southern two thirds of the site primarily lie within the Kiamichi formation,
underlain by the Goodland Limestone and Walnut Clay formation, mapped at undivided. These
three formations generally consist of limestone with marl layers. Residual overburden soils
associated with these formations generally consist of clays with low to high shrink/swell potential.
Subsurface stratigraphy can be highly variable at geological formation interfaces as evidenced on
the borings logs attached to this report.
Subsurface conditions encountered in most of the borings generally consisted of clay and/or shaly
clay soils to depths of about 1 ft to 20 ft below the existing ground surface, underlain by limestone
extending to the termination depths of borings (about 20 ft to 25 ft). Layers of limestone about 2
ft to 8 ft thick were encountered within the clay soils in Borings 1, 5, 14, 18, 21, 25, 33, 37 and 43
at various depths. Subsurface conditions encountered in Borings 13, 20, 22, 23, 29, 31, 34, 38
through 41, 45, and 47 generally consisted of clay soils extending to the 20 ft termination depths
of borings. Limestone was encountered at the ground surface and extended to the 20 ft termination
depths of borings in Borings 4, 6, 8, 11, 12 and 15. Limestone was also encountered in Borings 7,
10, 17, 19, 21, 24, 26, 32 and 58 to depths of about 4 ft to 16 ft below the existing ground surface,
underlain by clay or clay then limestone to the 20 ft termination depths of borings. More detailed
stratigraphic information is presented on the Log of Boring sheets attached to this report.
Most of the materials encountered in the borings are considered relatively impermeable and are
anticipated to have a relatively slow response to water movement. Therefore, several days of
observation would be required to evaluate actual groundwater levels within the depths explored.
Also, the groundwater level at the subject site is anticipated to fluctuate seasonally depending on
the amount of rainfall, prevailing weather conditions, and subsurface drainage characteristics.

ALPHA Report No. W 170598-A
�
�
�
During the field exploration, free groundwater was encountered on drilling tools during drilling at
a depth of about 15 ft below the ground surface in Boring 54. No free groundwater was
encountered in the remaining borings. However, it is common to encounter seasonal groundwater
in clay soils, from natural fractures within the clayey matrix, at the soil/rock (limestone and/or
shale) interface or from fractures in the rock, particularly during or after periods of precipitation.
If more detailed groundwater information is required, monitoring wells or piezometers can be
installed
Further details concerning subsurface materials and conditions encountered can be obtained from
the boring logs attached to this report.
ENGINEERING ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Calculations used to determine the required pavement thickness are based only on the physical and
engineering properties of the materials and conventional thickness determination procedures.
Related civil design factors such as subgrade drainage, shoulder support, cross-sectional
configurations, surface elevations, joint design and environmental factors will significantly affect
the service life and must be included in preparation of the construction drawings and specifications,
but were not included in the scope of this study. Normal periodic maintenance will be required
for all pavement to achieve the design life of the pavement system.
Pavement Sub�rade Preparation
Based on review of the boring logs and the preliminary grading plans prepared by Jacobs
Engineering, Inc. (Sheets G1 through G9, dated March 2017), it is expected the pavement subgrade
could consist of clay, calcareous clay, shaly clay or similar onsite materials used for grading the
site. The pavement subgrade could also consist of limestone in some areas depending on the given
location along the alignment and grading requirements. Since the subgrade conditions and
required treatments could vary along the proposed road alignment, ALPHA should be retained to
observe construction to verify conditions are as expected. Also, we should be provided with the
final grading plan for review prior to construction to verify or modify in writing the
recommendations contained in this report.
Lime series tests indicate where clay soils are encountered at the final pavement subgrade
elevation, the exposed clayey surface soils should be scarified to a depth of 6 inches for Residential
Urban streets and 8 inches for Collector and Arterial streets. The scarified soils should be mixed
with a minimum 30 lbs per sq yard of hydrated lime (by dry soil weight) for Residential Urban
streets and 36 lbs per sq yard for Collector/Arterial streets in conformance with TxDOT Standard
Speci�cations Item 260. The recommended lime application rate for Residential Urban streets is
the minimum application rate determined by the City of Fort Worth. The recommended
application rate far Collector/Arterial streets equates to about 6 percent based on a dry soil unit
weight of 100 pcf. The results of a lime series test performed on a bulk sample and a representative
composite sample of clay soils retrieved from selected borings are attached to this report (Figure
4).

ALPHA Report No. W 170598-A

We recommend subgrade improvement procedures extend at least 1 ft beyond the edge of the
pavement to reduce effects of seasonal shrinking and swelling upon the extreme edges of
pavement. The improved subgrade should be compacted to at least 95 percent of standard Proctor
maximum dry density (ASTM D 698) and within the range of 0 to 4 percentage points above the
mixture's optimum moisture content.
Improvement of the pavement subgrade soil will not prevent normal seasonal movement of the
underlying untreated materials. Where pavement and other flatwork are constructed at the final
grades as depicted on the referenced preliminary grading plans, soil-related potential seasonal
movements could exceed 7 inches, depending on the location on the site. Potential seasonal
movements are discussed in more detail in ALPHA Report W 170598, performed for the residential
foundations to be constructed at the site.
Improvement of the pavement subgrade is not required where the pavement subgrade consists of
limestone. In pavement areas where limestone is exposed after final subgrade elevation is
achieved, on-site lime stabilized clay cuttings, on-site processed limestone cuttings, or flexible
base material could be used as a leveling course (as needed) to provide a smooth surface for
placement of the pavement.
Results of a California Bearing Ratio (CBR) test indicate the CBR value of clayey soils at this site
could be about 2.8 to 3.6. Following improvement, the CBR value for the subgrade soils is
expected to be at least 10.

Using the Street Classification of "Residential-Urban" as described in the referenced Fort Worth
Pavement Design Guide, it is estimated annual traffic volume will be about 35,000 Equivalent
Single Axle Loads (ESALs) in one direction over a 25 year design life with 0.5 percent annual
traffic growth. Based on this, we estimate the cumulative ESALs over the design life of the
Residential Urban street pavement to be about 930,000.

Using the Street Classification of "Collector" as described in the referenced Fort Worth Pavement
Design Guide, the annual traffic volume will be about 100,000 Equivalent Single Axle Loads
(ESALs) in one direction over a 25 year design life with 1.5 percent annual traffic growth. Based
on this, we estimate the cumulative ESALs over the design life of the pavement to be about
3,000,000
Using the Street Classification of "Arterial" as described in the referenced Fort Worth Pavement
Design Guide, the annual traffic volume will be about 300,000 Equivalent Single Axle Loads
(ESALs) in one direction over a 30 year design life with 2.5 percent annual traffic growth. Based
on this, we estimate the cumulative ESALs over the design life of the pavement to be about
13,170,000.
If the actual expected traffic volume is different than used for our analysis herein, our office should
be provided with the actual expected traffic volume so that we can re-evaluate our
recommendations.
Based on the subgrade preparations recommended above, the projected traffic volume and above
design parameters, a minimum 6 inch section of Portland cement concrete is required for
Residential Urban classified streets, a minimum 7'/z inch section of Portland cement concrete is
required for Collector classified streets and a minimum 10 inch section of Portland cement
concrete is required for Arterial classified streets at this project.
PCC should have a minimum 3,600 psi compressive strength at 28 days. The concrete section
should be placed over a properly prepared subgrade as discussed above. Concrete should be
designed with 5� 1 percent entrained air. Reinforcing steel for concrete pavement should be in
accordance with Table 4.1 of the referenced Pavement Design Manual. Joints and saw-cutting in
concrete should be in accordance with Section Four of the referenced Pavement Design Manual.
Draina�e and Maintenance
Routine maintenance, including sealing of cracks and joints should be performed over the life of
the pavement. Adequate drainage should be provided to reduce seasonal variations in the moisture
content of subgrade soils. Maintaining positive surface drainage throughout the life of the
pavement is essential.
Soluble Sulfates
A total of five (5) samples obtained from the borings were tested for soluble sulfate concentrations.
Results of the laboratory testing (TxDOT Test Method TEX-145-E Part II) are tabulated below.

Based on the results of laboratory testing, the soluble sulfate content measured in the samples
tested is considered relatively low (<3,000 ppm). It should be noted that concentrations of soluble
sulfates in soil are typically very localized and concentrations in other areas of the site could vary
significantly. Therefore, it is recommended sulfate sampling/testing be performed during
construction. During construction experienced geotechnical personnel should make close
observations for possible sulfate reactions.
GENERAL CONSTRUCTION PROCEDURES AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Variations in subsurface conditions could be encountered during construction. To permit
correlation between test boring data and actual subsurface conditions encountered during
construction, it is recommended a registered Professional Engineering firm be retained to observe
construction procedures and materials.
Some construction problems, particularly degree or magnitude, cannot be reasonably anticipated
until the course of construction. The recommendations offered in the following paragraphs are
intended not to limit or preclude other conceivable solutions, but rather to provide our observations
based on our experience and understanding of the proj ect characteristics and subsurface conditions
encountered in the borings.
Site Preparation and Gradin�
Limestone was encountered at or within 4 ft of the ground surface in several of the borings. We
expect limestone will be encountered during general excavation at this site. The limestone
encountered in the borings was hard and may be difficult to excavate. Rock excavation methods
(including, but not limited to rock teeth, rippers, jack hammers, or sawcutting) may be required to
remove the limestone. Crushing equipment may be required to process this limestone if it is
desired to use this material as compacted fill on the site. The contractor selected should have
experience with excavation in hard limestone.
ALPHA Report No. W 170598-A
All areas supporting pavement or areas to receive new fill should be properly prepared.
�
�
�
After completion of the necessary stripping, clearing, and excavating and prior to placing
any required fill, the exposed subgrade should be carefully evaluated by probing and
testing. Any undesirable material (organic material, wet, soft, or loose soil) still in place
should be removed.
The exposed subgrade should be further evaluated by proof-rolling with a heavy pneumatic
tired roller, loaded dump truck or similar equipment weighing approximately 25 tons to
check for pockets of soft or loose material hidden beneath a thin crust of possibly better
soil. Proof-rolling procedures should be observed routinely by a Professional Engineer or
his designated representative. Any undesirable material (organic material, wet, soft, or
loose soil) exposed from the proof-roll should be removed and replaced with well-
compacted material as outlined in the Fill Compaction section below.
Prior to placement of any fill, the exposed subgrade should then be scarified to a minimum
depth of 6 inches and recompacted as outlined in the Fill Compaction section below.
If fill is to be placed on existing slopes (natural or constructed) steeper than siX horizontal to one
vertical (6:1), the fill materials should be benched into the existing slopes in such a manner as to
provide a minimum bench width of five (5) ft. This should provide a good contact between the
existing soils and new fill materials, reduce potential sliding planes, and allow relatively horizontal
lift placements.
Even if fill is properly compacted as recommended in the Fill Compaction section below, fills in
excess of about 10 ft are still subject to settlements over time of up to about 1 to 2 percent of the
total fill thickness. This should be considered when designing utility lines under pavement.
Slope stability analysis of embankments (natural or constructed) and global stability analysis for
retaining walls was not within the scope of this study.
The contractor is responsible for designing any excavation slopes, temporary sheeting or shoring.
Design of these structures should include any imposed surface surcharges. Construction site safety
is the sole responsibility of the contractor, who shall also be solely responsible for the means,
methods and sequencing of construction operations. The contractor should also be aware that
slope height, slope inclination or excavation depths (including utility trench excavations) should
in no case exceed those specified in local, state and/or federal safety regulations, such as OSHA
Health and Safety Standard for Excavations, 29 CFR Part 1926, or successor regulations.
Stockpiles should be place well away from the edge of the excavation and their heights should be
controlled so they do not surcharge the sides of the excavation. Surface drainage should be
carefully controlled to prevent flow of water over the slopes and/or into the excavations.
Construction slopes should be closely observed for signs of mass movement, including tension
cracks near the crest or bulging at the toe. If potential stability problems are observed, a
geotechnical engineer should be contacted immediately. Shoring, bracing or underpinning
required for the project (if any) should be designed by a professional engineer registered in the
State of Texas.

ALPHA Report No. W 170598-A
�
�
�
Due to the nature of the clay soils found near the surface at the borings, traffic of heavy equipment
(including heavy compaction equipment) may create pumping and general deterioration of shallow
soils. Therefore, some construction difficulties should be anticipated during periods when these
soils are saturated.
Fill Compaction
The recommendations below pertain to fill placement for general site grading. The pavement
subgrade should be prepared as discussed above in the "Pavement Subgrade Preparation" section
of this report.
Clay and/or shaly clay soils with a plasticity index equal to or greater than 25 should be compacted
to a dry density between 93 and 98 percent of standard Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM
D 698). The compacted moisture content of the clays during placement should be within the range
of 2 to 6 percentage points above optimum.
Clay, calcareous clay and/or shaly clay soils with a plasticity index less than 25 should be
compacted to a dry density of at least 95 percent of standard Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM
D 698) and within the range of 1 percentage point below to 3 percentage points above the material's
optimum moisture content.
Clayey materials used as fill should be processed and the largest particle or clod should be less
than 6 inches prior to compaction.
Processed limestone used as fill should be compacted to at least 95 percent of standard Proctor
maximum dry density. The compacted moisture content of the processed limestone is not
considered crucial to proper performance. However, if the material's moisture content during
placement is within 3 percentage points of optimum, the compaction effort required to achieve the
minimum compaction criteria may be minimized. Individual rock pieces larger than 6 inches in
dimension should not be used as fill. However, if rock �11 is utilized within 3 ft below the bottom
of pavement, the maximum allowable size of individual rock pieces should be reduced to 3 inches.
Processed limestone used as fill should incorporate sufficient fines to prevent the presence of voids
around larger diameter rock pieces. A gradation of at least 40 percent passing a standard No. 4
sieve is recommended.
In cases where either mass fills or utility lines are more than 10 ft deep, the fill/backfill below 10
ft should be compacted to at least 98 percent of standard Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D-
698) and within 2 percentage points of the material's optimum moisture content. The portion of
the fill/backfill shallower than 10 ft should be compacted as outlined above.
Compaction should be accomplished by placing fill in about 8-inch thick loose lifts
and compacting each lift to at least the specified minimum dry density. Field density
and moisture content tests should be performed on each lift.

Groundwater
�
�
�
Free groundwater was encountered at a depth of about 15 ft below the ground surface in Baring
54 during our field exploration. However, from our experience, shallower groundwater seepage
could be encountered from the subsurface stratigraphy in excavations for pavement, utilities and
other general excavations at this site. The risk of seepage increases with depth of excavation and
during or after periods of precipitation. Standard sump pits and pumping may be adequate to
control seepage on a local basis.
In any areas where cuts are made to establish final grades, attention should be given to possible
seasonal water seepage that could occur through natural cracks and fissures in the newly exposed
stratigraphy. Also, the risk of seepage is increased where limestone is exposed in excavations and
slopes or is near final grade. In these areas subsurface drains may be required to intercept seasonal
groundwater seepage. The need for these or other dewatering devices should be carefully
addressed during construction. Our office could be contacted to visually observe final grades to
evaluate the need for such drains.
