present in the sewer lines shall b�� utilized to provide n cessary fluid for hydraulic cleaning
devices whenever possible.
2. CLEANING PROCEDURES: The designated sewer i�rnanholes shall be cleaned using
high-velocity jet equipment. Th� equipment shall b�l capable of removing di�t, grease,
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 equi ��ment fails to traverse the entire
manhole section, it will be assu ed that a major bloc�cage exisfs, and the cleaning effort
shall be abandoned. When ad tional quantities of w�ter from fire hydrants is necessary
to avoid delay in normal workin procedures, the wat�r shall be conserved and not used"

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 insfall 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 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 allows for replacement of pipe
sizes from 8" through 21" and/or upsizing in varying increments up to 21". This •
specification is based .on fhe 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 ficensed installer of their system. No other Pipe
Bursting/Crushing system other than those listed in Section A.2. of these
specificafions is acceptable.
a. Personnel directly involved with installing th� 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.

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 centerfine 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.,, The specified placement procedure requires that the length
of the geotextile be greater than the actual slope length. The Contractor.shall adjust
the actual length of the geotextile used based on initial installat�on experience. The
geotextile shall be protected at all times during construction from contamination by
surface runoff and any geotextile so contaminated shall be removed and replaced with
uncontaminated 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 fhe placement of rock
riprap. B.,efore placement of gabion units, the Contractor shall d.emonstrate that the
placement technique will prevent damage to the geotextile. In no case shall any type
of equipment be allowed on the unprotected geotextile.'
3. 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
minim.um practicable percentage of voids and shall be constructed within the speci�ed
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 larger stones shall be well distributed and the entire mass of
stones in•their final position shall conform to the gradation specified hereinbefore. The
finished riprap shall be 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 controlled dumping of successive loads during final placirig, 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 and grades shown
on tt�e Drawings.
4. GROUT PLACEMENT: Grout shall be composed 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
