detrimental to the interest of the project. During temporary
suspension of work covered by this contract, for any reason,
the Owner will make no extra paym�nt for stand-by time of
construction equipment and/or const.ruction crews.

of the City to provide material or necessary instructions for
carrying on the work, then such delay will entitle the
Contractor to an equivalent extension of time, his application
for. which shall, however, be subject to the approval of the

D-16 2:27 CONCRETE:
L�1
Transportation and Public Works Department typical Sections for Pavement and Trench Repair
of Utility Cuts Figures 1 through 5 refer to using 2:27 Concrete as base repair. Since this call-out
includes the word "concrete", the consistent interpretation of the Transportation and Public
Works Department is that this ratio specifies two (Z) sacks of cement per cubic yard of concrete.
With�� the exception of the cement content, � all other requirements shall meet or exceed
Transportation and Public Works Department standard specification Item 406 Class D Concrete.
D-17 PAVEMENT.REPAIR (E2=19�:
(E2-19): The unit price bid under the appropriate bid item of the proposal shall cover all cost for

sides of the trench, a minimum of twelve (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 the
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 resident's
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) £eet or less in width. �
Therefore, at the locations in the project v�rhere the trench wall is three (3) feet of less from the lip
�o.f.the.,.exist.�ng�gutter, the. Contractor..shall�.be.required��to remo,ve the existing paving to such
gutter. The pavement repair shall then be made from a minimum distance of twelve (12) inches
outside the trench wall nearest the center of the street to the gutter line.
The pavement shall be replaced within� a maximum of five (5) working days, providing job
placement conditions will permii 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 for the Department of Engineering's Pernut Desk by the Contractor in
conformation with Ordinance No. 3449 and/or� Ordinance No. 792 to make utility cuts in the
street. City Inspectors will inspect the paving repair after construction of each water and/or
sanitary sewer main replacement.

3. DEFINITIONS:
A. 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 �han fifteen (15) feet. If forms or other structures are installed or
constructed in an excavation so 'as to reduce the dimension measured from the forms or
structure to the side of the excavation to fifteen (15) feet or less at the bottom of, the
excavation, the excavation is also considered to be a trench. -
B. BENCHING SYSTEM: Benching means excavating the sides of a trench to form one
or a series of horizontal levels or steps, usually with vertical or near-vertical surfaces
between levels.
C. SLOPING SYSTEM: Sloping means excavating to form sides of a trench that are
inclined away from the excavation.
D. 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 workers 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.
E. SHORING SYSTEM: Shoring means a structure such as a metal hydraulic,
mechanical or timber system that supports the sides of a trench and which is designed to
prevent cave-ins. Shoring systems aze generally comprised of cross-braces, vertical rails
(uprights), horizontal rails (wales) and/or sheeting.
D-7
�
. �
10. Sealing and/or Adjusting Existing Manholes: Excavate (rectangular full,depth saw cut
if in pavement) adjacent to the manhole to expose the entire manhole frame and a �
minimum or six (6) inches of the manhole wall keeping the sides of the trench nearly
vertical.
A. Remove manhole frame from the manhole structure and observe the condition
of the frame and grade rings. Any frame or grade ring that is not suitable for use ,
as determined by the Engineer shall be replaced. Grade rings that are constructed
of.brick, block, or materials other than pre-cast concrete shall be replaced with
pre-cast. concrete rings, or where necessary and approved by the Engineer, a pre-
cast flat top section. �Pre-cast concrete rings, or pre-cast concrete flat top section
will be the only adjushnents allowed.
B. In brick or block manholes replace the upper portion� of the manhole to a point
twenty-fou'r`(24)"inches"below� the frame: If the walls or�cone section �below this
level are structurally unsound, notify the Engineer prior to replacement of the
grade rings and manhole frame. Existing brickwork, if damaged by the
Contractor, shall be replaced at the Contractor's expense.
C. Wire brush manhole frame and exposed manhole surfaces to remove dirt and
loose debris. Coat exposed manhole surfaces with an approved bonding agent
follawed with an application of a quick setting hydraulic cement to provide a

3. Definition: The Pipe Bursting/Crushing system is defined as the reconstruction of
gravity sanitary 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 price
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 sanitary 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 pipe size on sizes from eight (8) inches
through eighteen (18) inches and/or up-sizing in varying increments up to eighteen (18)
inches. This specification is based on the precedent that the Pipe Bursting/Crushing
