D-62 PRE-CONSTRUCTION TELEVISION INSPECTION OF SANITARY SEWER �rt�*
A. GENERAL: Prior to the reconstruction, ALL sections of existing sanitary sewer lines to be
abandoned, removed (except where being replaced in the same location), or rehabilitated -
(pipe enlargement, cured-in-place pipe, fold and form pipe, slip-line, etc.), shall be cleaned,
and a television inspection performed to identify any active sewer service taps, other sewer �
laterals and their location. Work shall consist of furnishing all labor, material, and equipment �-p,
necessary for the cleaning and inspection of the sewer lines by means of closed circuit
television. Satisfactory precautions shall be taken to protect the sewer lines from damage �
that might be inflicted by the improper use of cleaning equipment. -�,
1. HIGH VELOCITY JET (HYDROCLEANING) EQUIPMENT: The high-velocity sewer line
cleaning equipment shall be constn�cted for easy and safe operation. The equipment
shall also have a selection of two or more high-velocity nozzles. The nozzles shall be
capable of producing a scouring action from 15 to 45 degrees in all size fines designated "'
to be cleaned. Equipment shall also include a high-velocity gun for washing and scouring ,..�
manhole walls and floor. The gun shall be capable of producing flows from a fine spray to
a solid stream. The equipment shall carry its own water tank, auxiliary engines, pumps, "'
and hydraulically driven hose reel. ..,
--- -- Hyd�aulically-Propelled-Equipment shall be of a-movable-dam-type and be constructed-in- - `�
such a way that a portion of the dam may be collapsed at any time during the cleaning ,„
operation to protect against flooding of the sewer. The movable dam shall be equal in
diameter around the outer periphery to ensure removal of grease. If sewer cleaning balls
or other equipment which cannot be collapsed is used, special precautions to prevent .
flooding of the sewers and public or private property shall be taken. The flow of sewage
present in the sewer lines shall be utilized to provide necessary fluid for hydraulic cleaning
devices whenever possible.
2. CLEANING PROCEDURES: The designated sewer manholes shall be cleaned using
high-velocity jet equipment. The equipment shall be capable of removing dirt, grease, y
rocks, sand, and other materials and obstructions from the sewer lines and manholes. If
cleaning of an entire section cannot be successfully performed from one manhole, the �'
equipment shall be set up on the other manhole and cleaning again attempted. If, again, �
successful cleaning cannot be performed or equipment fails to traverse the entire
manhole section, it will be assumed that a major blockage exists, and the cleaning effort '�'
shall be abandoned. When additional quantities of water from fire hydrants is necessary
to avoid delay in normal working procedures, the water shall be conserved and not used
unnecessarily. No fire hydrant shall be obstructed in case of a fire in the area served by
the hydrant. Before using any water from the City Water Distribution System, the �
Contractor shall apply for and receive permission from the Water Department. The
Contractor shall be responsible for the water meter and related charges for the setup, "1
including the water usage bill. All expenses shall be considered incidental to cleaning. ..
3. DEBRIS REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL: All sludge, dirt, sand, rock, grease, and other solid �'"
or semisolid material resulting from the cleaning operation shall be removed at the
downstream manhole of the section being cleaned. Passing material from manhole

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.
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 det'eriorated gravity sewer lines_ by. the. Pipe
Bursting/Crushing systems. Approved methods include: the �'IM �orporation
(PIM System), _Piscata Way,_ New Jersey; McLat. Construction (McConnell System
for Pipe Crushing), Houston, 7exas; and Trenciiless Replacement Systems, (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 � 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 allow� 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.
4. Quality Assurance:
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
s,pectfcations is_acce,ptable,�_,__�
a. Personnel directly involved with installing the new pipe shall receive
training in the proper methods for joint fusing, handling, and installing the
polyethylene pipe. Training shall be performed by a qualified representative
as determined by the pipe manufacturer.
