DA-2 PIPE ENLARGEMENT SYSTEM:
A. GENERAL:
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 pPpe to install a new polyethylene pipe and reconnect existing sewer
service 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 Re�lacement Systems, �TRS
Svstem), Calqarv, Canada. �t'efer�to�rt E3�;=��SP:ECIAL�Ot�D1TtOtaiS# $D=�
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 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,

DA 19 VACUUM TESTING OF REHABILITATED MANHOLES:
A.
�
GENERAL
1. Scope. This section describes manhole testing to effectively confirm the watertight
integrity of existing manholes following structural ,infiltration and inflow related
repairs and that the appearance of the work is acceptable.
2
3.
Description:
a. Infiltration may be observed in manhole defects at manhole walls, pipe seals
or bench/trough areas. Infiltration related repairs are intended to eliminate
leakage of groundwater into manholes.
b. Inflow may be observed in manhole defects at manhole frames, covers,
frame seals, grade adjustments, grade adjustment seals, corbels, or walls.
Inflow related repairs are intended to eliminate sources of surface water entry
that become active during rainfall events.
c. Structural repairs may be required when making I/I related manhole repairs.
Structural repairs may include defects in any manhole components but not
displaying I/I.
Testing, Observations and Guarantee Periods:
a. The testing required shall be performed by the Contractor at locations
designated by the Engineer and documented to the satisfaction of the
Engineer.
b. Any new or rehabilitated manholes that are observed to be leaking by the
Engineer during periods of high groundwater or during inflow conditions shall
be subject to additional repairs. The Contractor shall be responsible for all
additional repairs required on these unsatisfactory manholes during the
guarantee period.
c. All manhole rehabilitation work shall be warranted to be free of defects and of
good workmanship for a minimum of three (3) years from the date of final
acceptance of the project. Any manhole repairs completed by the Contractor
which fail during the warranty. period shall be repaired to the satisfaction of
the City at no additional cost to the City.
MATERIALS - Not specified.

sources of infiltration. Observations �ill be made during high groundwater
conditions, wherever possible.
b. Manholes shall be tested after installation with all connections (existing
and/or proposed) in place. Drop-connections and gas sealing connections
shall be installed prior to testing. The lines entering the manhole shall be
temporarily plugged with the plugs braced to prevent them from being drawn
into the manhole. The plugs shall be installed in the lines beyond drop-
connections, gas sealing connections, etc. The test head shall be placed
inside the frame at the top of the manhole (so that the manhole frame seal is
tested) and inflated in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.
A vacuum of 10 inches of inercury shall be drawn, and the vacuum pump will
be turned off. With the valve closed, the level of vacuum shall be read after
the required test time. If the drop in the level is less than 1-inch of inercury
(final vacuum greater than 9-inches of inercury), the manhole v�ill have
passed the vacuum test. After a successful test, the temporary plugs will be
removed. The required test time is determined from Table I.

**For all Manholes over 18 feet in depth, add "T" seconds as shown for�each
respective diameter for each two feet of additional depth of manhole to the
time shown for that 18 foot depth. [Example: A 30 (thirry) foot deep, 48 (forty-
eight) inch Manhole Total Test Time would be 75.0 seconds.
45.0+6(5.0)=75.0 secondsj (Values listed above are extrapolated from ASTM
C924-85�.
a. Manhole vacuum levels observed to drop greater than 1-inch of inercury
(Final vacuum less than 9-inches of inercury) will have failed the test and will
require additional rehabilitation. The Contractor shall make the necessary
repairs to the already completed rehabilitation work at no additional
compensation. If the failure of the vacuum test is determined to be due to
' preexisting conditions not on the manhole rehabilitation schedule for that
manhole, this additional work may be authorized by the Owner's
Representative. After completion of the additional rehabilitation the manhole
shall then be re-tested as described above until a successful test is made.
Only one payment for manhole vacuum testing will be made on each
r�anhole. '

a
b. Vacuum testing is required on all manholes having interior rehabilitation.
Inflow Testing:
�
All partially rehabilitated manholes shall be dyed water tested unless the manhole
has successfully passed the vacuum test. Manholes shall be dyed water tested in
the presence of the Engineer. The dye test shall consist of applying a concentrated
dye solution around the manhole frame. Dyed water shall be applied for at least ten
minutes.
Manholes observed to be actively leaking greater than one drip per five seconds will
have failed the test and will not be acceptable. Manholes failing the test will require
additional rehabilitation by the Contractor at no additional compensation.
3. Other Testing:
One (1) rehabilitated manhole will be randomly selected for further testing. A
laboratory selected by the City will take core samples of wall sections of 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 required strengths for cementitious and non-
cementitious wall coatings:
a
i:�
Compressive Strength. Compressive strength shall conform to ASTM C
495 and C 109 and shall meet or exceed a minimum 28-day break of 4,000
psi.
Flexural Strength. Flexural strength shall conform to ASTM C 348 and
shall meet or exceed a minimum 28-day break of 1,200 psi.
�
c. Slant Shear Bond Strength. Slant shear bond strength shall conform to
ASTM 882 modified and shall meet or exceed a minimum 28-day break of
2,400 psi.
If the manhole tested fails to pass any of these requirements, another
manhole shall be selected and tested. If the second manhole fails, the City
may, at its option, stop work until the Contractor can provide assurance that
testing requirements can be met.
Guarantee:
4.
Contractor shall warrant that the workmanship and materials are free from defects
and that the manholes are sealed from inflow and infiltration for a period of three (3)
years from the date of final acceptance of the project.
