Completion" of this Agreement, and a progress schedule shal: rot constitute a change in the
contract time.

conducted by the Contractor so as to create a minimum amount of inconvenience to the public.
At any time when, in the judgment of the Engineer, the Contractor has obstructed or closed or

which operations are in progress before the work is commenced on any additional section or
street.
C7-7.5 CHARACTER OF WORKMEN AND EOUIPMENT: Local labor shall be used by the
Contractor as available. The Contractor may bring in from outside the City of Fort Worth his

satisfactory, safe and efFicient working condition. Equipment on any portion of the work shall
be such that no injury to the work, workmen or adjacent property will result from its use.

C7-7.6 WORK SCHEDULE: Elapsed working days shall be computed starting with the first
�, day of work completed as deiined in C1-1.23 "WORKING DAY" or the date stipulated in the
"WORK ORDER" for beginning work, whichever comes first.
Nothing in these Contract Documents shall be construed as prohibiting the Contractor from
working on Saturday, Sunday or Legal Holidays, providing that the following requirements are
met:
�,,..
a. A request to work on a specific Saturday, Sunday or Legal Holiday must be
made to the Engineer no later than the proceeding Thursday.
b. Any work to be done on the project on such a specific Saturday, Sunday or
� Legal Holiday must be, in the opinion of the Engineer, essential to the timely
• completion of the project. ,
The Engineer's decision shall be final in response to such a request for approval to work on a
"-�� specific Saturday, Sunday or Legal Holiday, and no extra compensation shall be allowed to the
�_ Contractor for any work performed on such a specific Saturday, Sunday or Legal Holiday.
Calendar Days shall be defined in C1-1.24 and the Contractor may work as he so desires.
C7-7.7 TIME OF COMMENCEMENT AND COMPLETION: The Contractor shall commence
the work specified in the Contract (within the time 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 may proceed as he sees fit.
� The Contractor shall maintain a rate of progress such as will insure that the whole work will be
. performed and the premises cleaned up in accordance with the Contract Documents and within
the time established in such documents and such extension of time as may be properly
authorized by the owner.
�
C7-7.8 EXTENSION OF TIME COMPLETION: The Contractor's request for an extension
of time of completion shall be considered only when the request for such extension is submitted
in writing to the Engineer within seven days from and after the time alleged cause of delay shall
have occurred. Should an extension of the time of completion be requested such request will
be forwarded to the City Council for approval .
C7-7 (3)
�.,.
�
�
�
In adjusting the contract time for completion of work, consideration will be given to �
unforseeable causes beyond the control of and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor,
including but limited to acts of the public enemy, 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 'J
because of inclement weather will not be considered. A request for extension of time due to
inability to obtain supplies and materials will be 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. �
If satisfactory execution and completion of the contract should require work and materials in �„�
greater amounts or quantities than those set forth in the approved Contract Documents, then the
contract time may be increased by Change order. �
C7-7.9 DELAYS: The Contractor shall receive no compensation for delays or hindrances to the
work, except when direct and unavoidable extra cost to the Contractor is caused by the failure '�
of the City to provide information or material, if 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 refened by him ;
to the Council for final approval or disapproval; and the action thereon by the Council shall be "�
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 Contractor to an equivalent
extension of time, his application for which shall, however, be subject to the approval of the �
City Council; and no such extension of time shall release the Contractor or the surety on his �
performance bond from all his obligations hereunder which shall remain in full force until the
discharge of the contract. �.
C7-7.10 TIME OF COMPLETION: The time of completion is an essential element of the
contract. Each bidder shall indicate in the appropriate place on the last page of the Proposal the
number of working days or calendar days that he will require to fully complete this contract or
the time of completion will be specified by the City in the Proposal section of the contract
documents
The number of days sindicated shall be realistic estimate of the time required to complete the
work covered by the specific contract being bid upon. The amount of time so stated by the �
successful bidder or the City will become the time of completion specified in the Contract
Documents. For each calendar day that any work shall remain uncompleted after the time „�

delay in completing the work hereunder in the time specified by the Contract Documents would

part or parts of the work ordered by any court, and will not be entitled to additional
compensation by virtue of such court order. Neither will he be liable to the City in the event

virtue of any Court Order or action for which the Owner is not solely responsible.
C7-7.12 TEMPORARY SUSPENSION: The Owner shall have the right to suspend the work
operation wholly or in part for such period or periods of time as he may deem necessary due to
unsuitable weather conditions or any other unfavorable conditions which in the opinion of the

the interest of the project. During temporary suspension of work covered by this contract, for
any reason, the Owner will make no extra payment for stand-by time of construction equipment
and/or construction crews.
�.. If it should become necessary to suspend work for an indefinite period, the Contractor shall
store all materials in such manner that they will not obstruct or impede the public unnecessarily

Should the Contractor not be able to complete a portion of the project due to causes beyond the
control of and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor as set forth in Paragraph C7-7.8
EXTENSION OF THE TIME OF COMPLETION, and should it be determined by mutual
consent of the Contractor and the Engineer that a solution to allow construction to proceed is
not available within a reasonable period of time, then the Contractor may be reimbursed for the
cost of moving his equipment off the job and returning the necessary equipment to the job when
it is determined by the Engineer that construction may be resumed. Such reimbursement shall
be based on actual cost to the Contractor of moving the equipment and no profit will be allowed.
No reimbursement shall be allowed if the equipment is moved to another construction project
for the City of Fort Worth.
The Contractor shall not suspend work without written notice from the Engineer and shall
proceed with the work operations promptly when notified by the Engineer to so resume
operations.

because of National Emergency, so declared by the President of the United States or other
lawful authority, it becomes impossible for the Contractor to obtain all of the necessary labor,

of two months, the Contractor shall within seven days notify the City in writing, giving a
detailed statement of the efforts which have been made and listing all necessary items of labor,
materials, and equipment not obtainable. If, after investigations, the owner finds that such
conditions existing and that the inability of the Contractor to proceed is not attributable in whole
or in part to the fault or neglect of the Contract, then if the Owner cannot after reasonable effort
assist the Contractor in procuring and making available the necessary labor, materials and
equipment within thirty days, the Contractor may request the Owner to terminate the contract
and the Owner may comply with the request, and the termination shall be conditioned and based
upon a final settlement mutually acceptable to both the Owner and the Contractor and final
payment shall be made in accordance with the terms of the agreed settlement, which shall
include, but not be limited to, the payment for all work executed but no anticipated profits on
work which has not been performed.

provided however, that the Sureties shall exercise their option, if at all, within two weeks after
� the written notice to discontinue the work has been served upon the Contractor and upon the
�- Sureties or their authorized agents. The Sureties, in such event shall assume the Contractor's

all expenses incidental thereto. The expense so charged shall be deducted by the owner from
such monies as may be due or may become due at any time thereafter to the �
Contractor under and by virtue of the Contract or any part thereof. The owner shall not be
required to obtain the lowest bid for the work completing the contract, but the expense to be
deducted shall be the actual cost of the owner of such work.
In case such expenses shall exceed the amount which would have been payable under the
Contract if the same had been completed by the Contractor, then the Contractor and his Sureties `�
shall pay the amount of such excess to the City on notice from the Owner of the excess due.
When any particular part of the work is being carried on by the Owner by contract or otherwise �
under the provisions of this section, the Contractor shall continue the remainder of the work in ;.,

sufficiency, or as an acceptance of the work done or the release of the Contractor of any of his
responsibilities under the Contract Documents.
The City reserves the right to withhold the payment of any monthly estimate if the contractor
fails to perform the work strictly in accordance with the specifications or provisions of this

... thereafter.
� C8-8.9 ADEOUACY OF DESIGN: It is understood that the Owner believes it has employed
��° competent Engineers and designers to prepare the Contract Document and all modifications of

materials or workmanship. The Contractor shall remedy any defects or damages in the work
and pay for any damage to other work resulting therefrom which shall appear within a period
of one full year from the date of final acceptance of the work unless a longer period is specified

excavation and cleanup are general items of work which fall in the category of subsidiary work.
C8-8.12 MISCELLANEOUS PLACEMENT OF MATERIAL: Material may be allocated under
various bid items in the Proposal to establish unit prices for miscellaneous placement of
material. These materials shall be used only when directed by the Engineer, depending on field
conditions. Payment for miscellaneous placement of material will be made for only that amount

plans, addenda, modifications, shop drawings and samples at the site, in good order and
annotated to show all changes made during the construction process. These shall be delivered

electrical cables, drainage pipes, and all other utilities and structures both above and below
ground during construction. The Contractor is liable for all damages done to such existing
facilities as a result of his operations and any and all cost incurred for the protection and/or
temporary relocation of such facilities shall be included in the cost bid per linear foot of pipe
installed. NO ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION WILL BE ALLOWED.
Where existing utilities or service lines are cut, broken or damaged the Contractor shall replace or
repair the utilities or service� lines with the same type of original material and construction, or
better, unless othenNise shown or noted on the plans, at his own cost and expense. The
Contractor shall immediately notify the Owner of the damaged utility or service line. He shall
cooperate with the Owners of all utilities to locate existing underground facilities and notify the
Engineer of any cmnflicts in grades and alignment.

replaced at no cost to the City by material of equal value and quality as that damaged.
In case it is necessary to change or move the property of any Owner of a public utility, such
property shall not be moved or interfered with until ordered to do so by the Engineer. The right is
reserved to the owner of public utilities to enter upon the limits of the project for the purpose of
making such changes or repairs of their property that may be made necessary by performance of
this contract.

by the City of the Engineer to be accurate as to extent, location, and depth; they are shown on the
plans as the best information available at the time of design, from the owners of the utilities
involved and from evidences found on the ground.
D-23 CONSTRUCTION TRAFFIC OVER PIPELINES: It is apparent that certain construction
vehicles could exceed the load bearing capacity of the p,ipe under shallow bury conditions. It will
be the responsibility of the Contractor to protect both the new line and the existing lines from these
possibly excessive loads. The Contractor shall not, at any time, cross the existing or new pipe
with a truck delivering new pipe to the site. Any damage to the existing or new pipe will be
repaired or replaced by the Contractor, at the Contractor's expense, to the satisfaction of the City.
In locations where it is not permissible to cross the existing or proposed pipes without additional
protection the Contractor may elect to provide additional protection of the pipes so that more
frequent crossings of the pipes are allowed. It still is, however, the responsibility of the Contractor
to repair any damage to the existing or proposed lines, if the damage results from any phase of
his construction operation.

4. Cleaning of Sewer Line - It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to remove
all internal debris out of the sewer lines an�i flush the sewer lines clean, disposing
of debris off-site. Debris is not to be was ed downstream into other sewers. All
solids or semisolids resulting from the cle ing operations shall be removed from
the site and disposed of at no additional c st to the City. It is the responsibility of
the Contractor to secure a legal dump site for the disposal of this material. All
materials shall be removed from the site no less often than at the end of eachwork
day. All cost for the above-described work shall be paid for by the price bid per

E. INSTALLATION OF THE RESIN IMPREGNATED � UBE:
�
1. The Contractor shall designate a location .�nrhere the uncured resin in the original
containers and the unimpregnated fiber-fel�F 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 provi e the wall thickness specified. All felt
shall be impregnated under vacuum.
2. The wet-out fiber felt tube shall be install�,ai 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
� 01/19/59 3:33 PM
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 insii e out and attached tothe standpipe so
that a leak-proof seal is created. The i�iersion head will be adjusted to be of
sufficient height to cause the impregnated��ube 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
ASG5

�� � PART DA - ADDITIONAL SPECIAL CONDITIONS
�,��,��,.�
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-
strung hose, which has been perforated per manufacturer's recommendations, to
uniformly raise the water temperature above the temperature required to effect a
cure of the resin. This temperature shall be determined by the resin/catalyst
system employed and shall be per manufacturer's standards.
4. The heat source shall be fitted with suitable 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 completed when inspection of the exposed portions of
the cured-in-place pipe appear to be hard and sound. The cure period shall be ofa
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
inversion 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 developed 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 cutting device that re-established them to not less than 90 percent
capacity. Existing services shall be reinstated within 18 hours of installation. Should
internal reinstatement 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 12 inches above the service lateral to trench intersection and shall be in accordance
with these specifications. Each reEonnection shall be paid for separately. Six inch sewer
lines 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-place pipe shall be continuous over the entire length
of an inversion run befinreen �manholes and be smooth and free from substantial wrinkles,
as well as defects, and improper house connections. Should any of these defects occur,

DA-2 PIPE ENLARGEMENT SYSTEM:
A. GENERAL:
Description: This specification includes requirements to rehabilitate existing
sanitary sewers by the pipe enlargement system, herein called Pipe Bursting or
Pipe Crushing (Pipe Bursting/Crushing). This system includes splitting or bursting
the .existing pipe to install a new polyethylene pipe and reconne�t existing sewer
ser'vice connections.
2. Methods: This section specifies the approved system method or process to include
all labor, materials, tools, equipment and incidentals necessary to provide for the
complete rehabilitation of deteriorated gravity sewer lines by the Pipe
Bursting/Crushing systems. Approved methods include: the PIM Corporation (PIM
System), Piscata Way, New Jersey; � McLat Construction (McConnell System for
Pipe Crushing), Houston, Texas; and Trenchless Replacement Systems, (TRS
System), Calgary, Canada. Refer to INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS for
information regarding pre-approval procedures for alternative processes.
3. Definition: The Pipe Bursting/Crushing system is defined as the reconstruction of
gravity sewer pipe by installing an approved pipe material, by means of one of the
pre-approved methods set forth in Section A.2 of this specification. The process
involves the use of a static, hydraulic or pneumatic hamr�er "moling" device,
suitably sized to break out the old pipe or using modified boring "knife" with a
flared plug that implodes and crushes the existing sewer pipe. Forward progress of
the "mole" or the "knife" may-be aided by the use of hydraulic equipment or other
apparatus, as specified in the approved methods. The replacement pipe is either
pulled or pushed into the bore. The method allows for replacement of pipe sizes
from 8" through 21" and/or upsizing in varying increments up to 21". This
specification is based on the precedent that the Pipe Bursting/Crushing system
used has been pre-approved by the City of Fort Worth Department of Engineering,
and Fort Worth Water Department.

obtained by selective loading of the material at • the quarry or other � source, by
controlled dumping of successive loads during final placing, or by other methods of
placement which will produce the specified results. Rearranging of individual stones,
by mechanical equipment or by hand will be required to the extent necessary to obtain
a reasonably well graded distribution of stone specified above. The Contractor shall
maintain the riprap protection until accepted. � Any material displaced by any cause
shall be replaced at his erosion to the lines an � grades shown on the Drawings.
�
GROUT PLACEMENT: Grout shall be comp�ed of cement, water and air-entraining
�admixture and sand mixed in the proportions of 1 part of Portland cement to 3 parts of
sand, sufficient water to produce a workable miXture, and that amount of admixture which
will entrain sufficient air to produce durable grout, as determined by the ENGINEER.
Sand for grouting shall conform to the requirements of paragraph FINE AGGREGATE.
The grout shall be mixed in a concrete mixer in the manner specified for concrete except
that the time of mixing shall be increased to that necessary to produce a mixture having a
consistency such as to permit gravity flow into the interstices of theriprap with the help of
limited spading and brooming. The grout shall "°e used in the work within a period of one
(1) hour after mixing. Retempering of ground ill not be permitted. Riprap shall not be
grouted when the ambient temperature is belo, 35 degree F. or above 95 degrees F.
unless approved by the ENGINEER in writin ; nor when the grout, without special
protection, is likely to be subjected to freezing ternperatures before final set has occurred.
Prior to grouting, all surfaces of riprap shall be' wetted. The riprap shall be grouted in
successive longitudinal strips, approximately 10�feet in width, commencing at the lowest
strip and working up the slope. Grout shall be brought to the place of final deposit by
approved means, and in no case will grout be permitted to flow on theriprapped surface
a distance in excess of 10 feet. Immediately after dumping the batch of grout, it shall be
distributed over the surface of the strip by the �se of brooms and the grout worked into
place between stones with suitable spades, tro�wels, or vibrating equipment. As a final
operation, the grout shall be removed from the ��Op surfaces of the upper stones and from
pockets and depressions in ,the surface of the tone protection. After completion of any
strip�as specified, no workman or any load shall e permitted on the grouted surface for a
period of at least 24 hours. The grouted su ace shall be protected from rain, flowing
water, and mechanical injury. The surface of all grouted riprap shall be-cured by keeping
the surface continuously wet for a period of not less than 7 days.
