safety.
C. DEFINITIONS:
1. TRENCHES - A`trench is referred to as a narrow excavation made below the surface of
the ground in which the depth is greater than the width, where the width measured at the
bottom is not greater than ffteen (15) fest.
2. BENCHING SYS�TEM - Benching means excavating the sides of a trencti to form one or a
series of horizontal level o� steps, usually with vertical or near-vertical surfaces between
levels.
3. SLOPING SYSTEM - Sloping means excavating to form sides of a trench that are inclined
away from the excavationN
4. SHIELD SYSTEM - Shields used in trenches are generally referred to as "trench boxes" or
°trench shields". Shield means a structure that is able to withstand the forces imposed on
it by a cave-in and protect worlcers within the structure. Shields can be permanent
structures or can be designed to be portable and move along as the work progresses.
Shields can be either pre-manufactured or job-built in accordance with OSHA standards.
5. SHORING SYSTEM - Sh�ring means a structure such as a metal hydraulic, mechanical
or timer system that supports the sides of a trench and which is designed to prevent cave-
ins. Shoring s�stems are generally comprised of cross-braces, vertical rails, (uprights),
horizontal rails (wales) and/or sheeting.
D. MEASUREMENT - Trench depth is the vertical measurement from the top of the existing
ground to the bottorii of the pipe or structures. The quantity of trench safety systems shall be
based on the linear foot amount of trench depth greater than five (5) feet.

sides of the trench, a minimum of finrelve (12) inches outside the trench walls. The trench shall be
backfilled and the top nine (9) inches shall be filled with required materials as shown on paving
details, compacted and level with the finished street surface. This finished grade shall be
maintained in a serviceable condition until the paving has been replaced. All residential
driveways shall be accessible at night and over weekends.
It has been determined by the Transportation and Public Works Department that the strip of
existing HMAC pavement between the existing gutter and the edge of the trench pavement repair
will not hold up if such strip of existing pavement is two (2) feet or less in width.
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 finrelve (12) inches
outside the trench wall nearest the center of the strest 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 strest. The Department of Engineering•will inspect the paving repair after construction.
This permit requirement may be waived if work is being done under a Performance Bond and

DA-1 PIPELINE REHi4BILlTATION'CURED-IN-PLACE PIPE:
A. WORK TO BE DONE: The work to be done under this contract consists of rehabilitation
of existing sewer lines by the Cure-in-Place Pipe Method or approved equal. Cured-in-
place pipe consists of a resin impregnated flexible tube, coated with an elastomeric
coating, when inverted into an existing sewer pipe through existing access manholes, and
which, under proper hydrostatic and thermal conditions, is cured-in-place, becoming a
structurally sound cured-in-place pipe. The thickness of the pipe will be dictated by the
structural requirements of the sewer pipe with no loss of cross sectional area other than
the thickness of the resin-impregnated tube. The pipe will be impermeable to water,
provide corrosion resistance, and an optimum friction factor for the sewer flow. Branch
connections shall be reinstated by a remote controlled cutting device.
The work consists of providing all labor, equipment, transportation, materials, and
supervision necessary to :
1. Thoroughly clean sewers as required for the installation of the resin-impregnated
tube.
2. Inspect sewers by closed circuit color television (CCN), including identifying and
marking the location of each service connection. Cost subsidiary to Pre-
Construction TV Inspection.
3.
