1. 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 reconnect existing sewer service
connections. I
� �
�
2. Methods.: This section specifie the approved system method or process to include all
,� labor, materials, tools, equ�pment and incidentals necessary to provide for the
complete rehabilitation o� deteriorated gravity sewer lines by the Pipe
�i Bursting/Crushing systems. � Approved methods include: the PIM Corporation (PIM
System), Piscata Way, New Uersey; McLat Construction (McConnell System for Pipe
Crushing), Houston, Texas; �and Trenchless Replacement System's, (TRS System),
�. Calgary, Canada. Refer to Part D- SPECIAL CONDITIONS D-61 SIBSTITUTIONS
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 hammer "moling" device, suitably sized to
�p 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
"x 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
r� the City of Fort Worth Department of Engineering, and Fort Worth Water
Department.
4. Quality Assurance:
e
The Contractor shall be certified by the particular Pipe Bursting/Crushing system
manufacturer that such firm is a licensed installer of their system. No other Pipe
�, Bursting/Crushing system other than those listed in Section A.2. of these
specifications is acceptable.
