C7-7.7 TIME OF COMMENCEMENT AND COMPLETION: The Contractor
shall commence the working operations within the time
specified in the Contract Documents and set forth in the Work
Order. Failure to do so shall be considered by the Owner as
abandonment of the Contract by the Contractor and the Owner

acts of the Owner, fire, flood, tornadoes, epidemics,
quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, or delays
of sub-contractors due to such causes.
When the date of completion is based on a calendar day bid, a
request for extension of time because of inclement weather

considered only when a review of the Contractor's purchase
order dates and other pertinent data as requested by the
Engineer indicates that the Contractor has made a bonafide
attempt to secure delivery on schedule. This shall include
efforts to obtain the supplies and materials from alternate
sources in case the first source cannot make delivery.

any, which is to be furnished by the City. When such extra
compensation is claimed a written statement thereof shall be
presented by the Contractor to the Engineer and if by him
found correct shall be approved and referred by him to the
Council for final approval or disapproval; and the action
thereon by the Council shall b� final and binding. If delay
is caused by specific orders given by the Engineers to stop
work, or by the performance of extra work, or by the failure
of the City to provide material or necessary instructions for
carrying on the work, then such delay will entitle the

� 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
a gutter. The pavement repair shall then be made from a minimum distance of twelve (12) inches
outside the trench wall nearest the center ofi 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 shal( 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. The Department of En�inesring will inspect the paving repair after construction.
This permit requirement may be waived if work is being done under a Performance Bond and
inspected by the Department of Enginee�ing.

INSTALLATION OF THE RESIN IMPREGNATED TUBE:
The Contractor shall designate a location where the uncured resin in the original
containers and the unimpregnated fiber-felt tube�will be vacuum impregnated prior
to installation. The Contractor shall allow the Owner to inspect the materials and
"wet-out" procedure. A resin and catalyst system compatible with requirements of
this method shall be used. The quantities of the liquid thermosetting materials
shall be per manufacturer's standards to provide the wall thickness specified. All
felt shall be impregnated under vacuum.
2. The wet-out fiber felt tube shall be installed through an existing manhole or other
approved access by means of an inversion process and the application of a
hydrostatic head sufficient to fully extend it to the next designated manhole. The
impregnated tube shall generally be inserted into the vertical inversion standpipe
with the impermeable plastic membrane side out. At the lower end of the inversion
standpipe, the felt tube shall be turned inside out and attached to the standpipe so
that a leak-proof seal is created. The inversion head will be adjusted to be of
sufficient height to cause the impregnated tube to invert from manhole to manhole
and hold the tube tight to the pipe wall and produce dimples at the side
connections. A lubricant, if used, shall be as approved by manufacturer's
standards. Manufacturer's standards shall be closely followed during the elevated
temperature curing so as not to over-stress the felt fiber and cause damage or
failure prior to cure. In certain cases, the Contractor may elect to use a top
inversion.
3. Curing: After inversion is complete, the Contractor shall supply a suitable heat
source and water or steam recirculation equipment. The equipment shall be
capable of delivering hot water or steam throughout the section by means of a pre-
ASC-5

cure of the resin. This tempei��ature shall be determined by the resin/catalyst
system employed and shall� be per manufacturer's standards.
4. The heat source shall be fitted with suitabie monitors to gauge the temperature of
the incoming and outgoing water or steam supply. Another such gauge shall be
placed at the remote manholes to determine the temperatures during cure. Initial
cure shall be deemed to be com�leted when inspection of the ex}�osed portions of
the cured-in-place pipe appear to� be hard and sound. The cure period shall be of
a duration recommended by the resin manufacturer, as modified for the inversion
process, during which time the recirculation of the water and/or steam and cycling
of the heat exchanger to maintain the temperature continues.
5. Cool-down: The Contractor shall cool the hardened cured-in-place pipe to a
temperature below 100 F before relieving the static head in the inversion
standpipe. Cool-down may be accomplished by introducing cool water into the
anversion standpipe to replace water or steam being drained from a small hole
made in the downstream end. Care shall be taken in the release of the static head
so that a vacuum will not be de�reloped that could damage the newly installed
cured-in-place pipe. �
F. SERVICE CONNECTIONS: After the„ pipe has been installed, the Contractor shall
reconnect the active service connections. This shall generally be done without
excavation, and, in the case of non=man entry pipes, from the interior of the pipeline by
means of a television camera and a�cufting device that re-established them to not less
than 90 percent capacity. Existing seivices shall be reinstated within 18 hours of
installation. Should internal reinstaterr�ent not be possible, the services must be
reconnected externally by excavation immediately. Service saddles acceptable to the
Engineer shall be utilized. Backfill at service connections shall be cement ,stabilized
(2 sacks per cubic yard) to a point 1� inches above the service lateral to trench
intersection and shall be in accordance�wi�h these specifications. Each reconnection shall
be paid for separately. Six inch sewer lirt s shall have service connections completed by
external means. Contractor may re-connect the 6" sewer line connections by internal
means in special cases with the approval of the Engineer.
G. ACCEPTANCE: The finished cure-in-placg pipe shall be continuous over the entire length

1) Paved Areas: Make square full depth saw cut and remove ihe pavement to
expose the entire manhole frame and exterior of manhole a minimum of 6
inches bef�w the top of the structurally sound structure, keeping trench
sides as vertica4 as possible. Remove the pavement by breaking out from
saw cut toward the manhole to avoid breaking the frame.
Non-paved Areas: Excavate adjacent to the manhole to expose the entire
frame to a minimum depth of 6 inches below the top of the structurally
sound structure, kesping trench sides as vertical as pos�ible. Limit

additional rehabilitation by the Contr�ctor at no additional compensation.
Other Testing: ; .
R
One (1) rehabilitated manhole wil� be randomly selected for further testing. A
laboratory selected by the City will r�ake core samples of wall sections bf manholes
with wall coatings. Testing of the,core samples will be done to evaluate material
thickness, compressive strength, flexural strength and slant shear bond strength.
The following are the minimum �equired strengths for cementitious and non-
cementitious wall coatings: ;
:
a. Compressive Strength. Com;pressive strength shalf conform to ASTM C

riprap with the help of limited spading and brooming. The grout sha11 be used in the
work within a period of one (1) hour after mixing. Retempering of ground wilf 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
p�rmitted 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 ihe surface of the strip by
the use of brooms and the grout worked into place between stones with suitable spades,
