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 gutter. The pavement repair shall then be made from a minimum distance of twelve (12) inches outside the trench wall nearest the center of 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 shall 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.

INSTALLATION OF THE FILTER FABRIC (GEOTEXTILE): The geotextile shall be placed in the manner and at the locations shown on the drawings. At the time of installation, the geotextile shall be rejected if it has defects, rips, holes, flaws, deterioration or damage incurred during manufacture, transportation or storage. The surface to receive the geotextile shall be prepared to a relatively smooth condition free of obstructions, depressions, debris, and soft or low density pockets of material. Erosion features such as rills, gullies, etc. must be .graded out of the surface before geotextile placement. The geotextile shall be placed with the long dimension perpendicular to the centerline of the channel and laid smooth and free of tension, stress, folds, wrinkles, or creases. The strips shall be placed to provide a minimum width of 24-inches of overlap for each joint. Temporary pinning of the textile to help hold it in place until the rock riprap is placed. The temporary pins shall be removed as the riprap is placed to relieve high tensile stress which may occur during placement of material on the geotextile.

Any geotextile damaged• during its installation or during placement of riprap shall be replaced by the Contractor at no cost to the Owner. The work shall be scheduled so that the covering of the geotextile with a layer of the specified material is accomplished within seven (7) calendar days after placement of the geotextile. Failure to comply shall require replacement of geotextile. The geotextile shall be protected from damage prior to and during the placement of rock riprap. Before placement of gabion units, the Contractor shall demonstrate that the placement technique will prevent damage to the geotextile. In no case shall any type of equipment be allowed on the unprotected geotext�le. RIPRAP PLACEMENT: Stone for riprap shall be placed on the filter fabric blanket in such a manner as to produce a reasonably well graded mass of rock with the minimum practicable percentage of voids and shall be constructed within the specified tolerance to the lines and grades shown on the drawings. Then intent of these specifications is to require placement of riprap to the thickness shown and to allow isolated stones to extend as�much as six inches above grade. Riprap shall be placed to its full course thickness at one operation and in such a manner as to avoid displacing the fabric. The I�rger stones shall be well distributed and the entire mass of stones in their final positi m shall conform to the gradation specified hereinbefore. The finished riprap shall b � free from objectionable pockets of small stones and clusters of larger stones. The desired distribution of the various sizes of stones throughout the mass shall be obtained by selective loading of the material at the quarry or other source, by c�ntrolled dumping of uccessive loads during final placing, or by other methods of � placement which �ill produce the specified results. Rearranging of individual st�nes, by mechanical equipment or by hand will be required to the extent necessary tq obtain a reasonably well graded distribution of stone specified above. The Cont�ractor shall maintain �the riprap� protection until accepted. Any material displaced by any cause shall be replaced at his erosion to the lines and grades shown on the Drawirigs. � � GROUT PLACEMENT: Gr�ut shall be composed of cement, water and air-entraining admixture and sand mixed ih the proportions of 1'part of Portland cement to 3 parts of sand, sufficient water to produce a workable mi�cture, 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 mariner 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 the riprap with the help of limited spading and brooming. The grout shall be used in the work within a period of one (1) hour after mixing. Retempering of ground wili 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 permitted 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 the surface of the strip by ASC-17 PART DA - ADDITIONAL SPECIAL CONDITIONS E. the use of brooms and the grout worked into place between stones with suitable spades, trowels, or vibrating equipment. As a final operation, the grout shall be removed from the top surfaces of the upper stones and from pockets and depressions in the surface of the'stone protection. After completion of any strip as specified, no workman or any load shall be permitted on the grouted surface for a period of at least 24 hours. The grouted surface 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. MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT 1.
