these Contract Documents, he will not under any circumstances
be relieved of the responsibility and obligation assumed under
these Contract Documents. All transactions of the Engineer
will be with the Contractor. Subcontractors will be
considered only in the capacity of employees or workmen of the
Contractor and shall be subject to the same requirements as to
character and competency. The Owner will not recognize any
subcontractor on the work. The Contractor shall at all times;
when the work is in operation, be represented either in person
or by a�superintendent or other designated representatives.
' C7-7.2 ASSIGNMENT OF CONTRACT; The Contractor shall not
assign, transfer, sublet, convey, or otherwise dispose of the
contract or his rights, title, or interest in or to the same
' or any part thereof without the previous consent of the Owner
expressed by resolution of the City Council and concurred in
by the Sureties.
�
'
�
�
�
'
'
�
If the Contractor does, without such previous consent, assign,
transfer, sublet, convey, br otherwise dispose of the contract
or his right, title, or interest therein or any part thereof,
to any person or persons, partnership, company, firm, or
corporation, or does by bankruptcy, voluntary or involuntary,
or by assignment under the insolvency laws of any state,

Owner be revoked and annulled, unless the Sureties shall
successfully complete said contract, and in the event of any

quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, or delays
of sub-contractors due to such causes.
When the date of completion is based on a calendar day bid, a
request for extension of time because of inclement weather
will not be considered. A request for extension of time due
to inability to obtain supplies and materials will be
considered only when a review of the Contractor's purchase
order dates and other pertinent data as requested by the
Engineer indicates that the Contractor has made a bonafide
attempt to secure delivery on schedule. This shall include
efforts to obtain the supplies and materials from alternate
sources in case the first source cannot make delivery.

presented by the Contractor to the Engineer and if by him
found correct shall be approved and reFerred by him to the
Council for final approval or disapproval; and the action

A. GENERAL:
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.
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 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 a 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
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
specifications is acceptable.
