1. PRE-OUALIFICATION REOUIREMENT: All contractors submitting bids are required to be
pre-qualified by the Forth Worth Water Department prior to submitting bids. This pre-
� qualification process will establish a bid limit based on a technical evaluation and financial
analysis of the contractor. It is the bidder's responsibility to submit the following
documentation: a current financial statement, an acceptable experience record, an acceptable
� equipment schedule and any other documents the Department may deem necessary, to the
Director of the Water Department at least seven (7) calendar days prior to the date of the
opening of bids.

public accountant or an independent public accountant holding a valid permit issued by
n appropriate State licensing agency and shall have been so prepared as to reflect the
financial status of the submitting company. This statement must be current and not
more that one (1) year old. In the case that a bidding date falls within the time a new
statement is being prepared, the previous statement shall be updated by proper
verification.
For an experience record to be considered to be acceptable for a given project, it must
reflect the experience of the firm seeking qualification in work of both the same nature
and technical level as that of the project for which bids are to be received.
The Director of the Water Department shall be the sole judge as to the acceptability for
financial qualif`ication to bid on any Fort Worth Water Department project.
Bids received in excess of the bid limit shall be considered non-responsive and will be
rejected as such.
The City, in its sole discretion, may reject any bid for failure to demonstrate experience
and/or expertise.
Any proposals submitted by a non-pre-qualified bidder shall be returned unopened, and
if inadvertently opened, shall not be considered.
(g) The City will attempt to notify prospective bidders whose qualifications (financial or
experience) are not deemed to be appropriate to the nature and/or magnitude of the
project on which bids are to be received. Failure to notify shall not be a waiver of any
necessary pre-qualification.
2. BID SECURITY: A cashier's check or acceptable bidder's bond payable to the City of Fort
Worth in an amount of not less than five percent (5%) of the largest possible total of the bid
submitted must accompany the bid, and is subject to forfeiture in the event the successful
bidder fails to execute the Contract Documents within (10) days after the contract has been
awarded. To be an acceptable surety o the bond, (1) the name of the surety shall be included on
the current U.S. Treasury, or (2) the surety must have capital and surplus equal to ten times
the limit of the bond. The surety must be licensed to do business in the State of Texas. The
amount of the bond shall not exceed the amount shown on the treasury list or one-tenth (U10)

compensation is claimed a written statement thereof shall be
oresented 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
thereon by the Council shall be final and binding. If delay
is cause3 by specific orders given by the Engineers to stop
work, or by the performance of extra work, or by the failure
of the City to provide material or necessary instructions for
carrying on the work, then such delay will entitle the
Contractor to an e�uivalent extension of time, his application
for which shall, however, be subject to the approval of the
City Council; and no such extension of time sha11 release the
Contractor or the surety on his performance bond from all his
obligations hereunder which shall remain in full force until

the mutually agreed upon time period.
3. Before using anp water &om the City of Fort Worth, the Contractor shall be responsible for the �4•ater meter
and related charges for the set up, including the water usage bill. All expenses shall be considered incidental
to cleaning.
4. Cleaning of Sewer Line - It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to remove all internal debris out of
the sewer lines and flush the sewer lines clean, disposing of debris o£f-site. Debris is not to be washed
downstream into other se�vers. All solids or semisolids resulting from the cleaning operations shall be
removed from the site and disposed of at no additional cost to the City. It is the responsibility of the
Contractor to secure a legal dump site for the disposal of this material. All materials shall be removed from
the site no less often than a� the end of each work day. All cost for the above•descrrbed work shall be paid
for by the price bid per linear foot for Cleaning and Television Inspection.
5. Inspection of Pipelines - Inspection of pipelines shall be performed by experienced personnel trained in
locating breaks, obstacles, and service connections by closed circuit color television. Television inspection
shall be in accordance �vith the specifications contained herewith for "Pre- and Post-Construction Television
Inspection of Sanitary Sewer Lines".
INSTALLATION OF THE RESIN Ib4PREGNATED TUBE:
The Contractor shall designate a location where the uncured resin in the original containers and the
unimpregnated Sber-felt tube will be vacuum impregnated prior to installation. The Contractor shall allow
the Owner to inspect the materials and "�ti�et-out" procedure. A resin and catalyst system compatible with
requirements of this method shall be used. The quantities of the liquid thermosetting materials shall be per
manufacturer's standards to provide the wall thickness specified. All felt shall be impregnated under
vacuum.
2. The wet-out fiber felt tube shall be installed through an existing manhole or other approved access by means
of an inversion process and the application of a hydrostatic head sufficient to fully extend it to the next
designated manhole. The impregnated tube shall generally be inserted into the vertical inversion standpipe
with the impermeable plastic membrane side out. At the lower end of the inversion standpipe, the felt tube
shall be turned inside out and attached to the standpipe so that a leak-proof seal is created. The inversion
head will be adjusted to be of sufficient height to cause the impregnated tube to invert from manhole to
manhole and hold the tube tight to the pipe wall and produce dimples at the side connections. A lubricant,
if used, shal] be as approved by manufacturer's standards. Manufacturer's standards shall be close►y followed
during the elevated temperature curing so as not to over•stress the felt fiber and cause damage or failure
prior to cure. In certain cases, the Contractor may elect to use a top inversion.
3. Curing: After inversion is complete, the Contractor shall supply a suitable heat source and water or steam
recirculation equipment. The equipment shall be capable of delivering hot �vater or steam throughout the
section by means of a pre-strung hose, which has been perforated per manufacturer's recommendations, to
uniformly raise the «•ater temperature above the temperature required to effect a cure of the resin. This
temperature shall be determined b}• the resin/catalyst s}•stem employ�ed and shall be per manufacturer's
standards.
The heat source shall be fitted �cith suitable monitors to gauge the temperature of the incoming and outgoing
water or steam supph•. Another such gauge shall be placed at the remote manholes to determine the
temperatures during cure. Inicial cure shall be deemed to be completed «�hen inspection of the exposed
965-1'300_Specs_PartDA wpd ASC - 2 Revised 09/01/98 '
-,
� portions of the cured•in-place pipe appear to be hard and sound. The cure period shall be of a duration
recommended by the resin manufacturer, as modified for the inversion process, during which time the
"' recirculation o£ the water and/or steam and cycling of the heat exchanger to maintain [he temperature
continues.
�r
5. Cool-down: The Contractor shall cool the hardened cured-in•place pipe to a temperature below 100 F before
n relieving the static head in the inversion standpipe. Cool•down may be accomplished by introducing cool
water into the inversion standpipe to replace water or steam being drained &om a small hole made in the
• downstream end. Care shall be taken in the release of the static head so that a vacuum will not be developed
that could damage the newly installed cured-in•place pipe.
F. SERVICE CONNECTIONS: After the pipe has been installed, the Contractor shall reconnect the active service
� connections. This shall generally be done without excavation, and, in the case of non-man entry pipes, from the interior
of the pipeline by means of a television camera and a cutting device chat re-established them to not less than 90 percent
� capacity. Existing services shall be reinstated within 18 hours of installation. Should internal reinstatement not be
possible, the services must be reconnected ezternally by excavation immediately. Service saddles acceptable to the
Engineer shaLl be utilized. Backfill at service connections shall be cement stabilized (2 sacks per cubic yard) to a point
12 inches abo��e the servue tateral to trench tntersection and shall be m accordance with these speciScations. Each
reconnectiort shall be paid for separately. Six inch sewer lines shall have service connections completed by external
�" means. Contractor may re-connect the 6" sewer Gne connections by interna] means in special cases with the approval
of the Engineer.
G. ACCEPTANCE: The finished cure•in-place pipe shall be continuous over the entire length of an inversion run between
~� manholes and be smooth and free from substantial wrinkles, as well as defects, and improper house connections.
� Should any of these defect9 occur, the line shall be escavated, repaired and/or replaced and complete restoration made
to the satisfaction of the Department of Engineering at no additional cost.
The watertightness of the pipe shall be tested for leaks under a positive head during cure with allowances being made
for end leakage and temperature effects.
H. CLEAN-UP: Upon acceptance of the installation work and testing, the Contractor shall restore the project area affected
� by his operations to original or better conditions.
P?.TENTS: The Contractor shalt .varrant and save harmless the City and all of its officers, agents, and employees
against all claims for patent infringement and any loss thereof.
� J. SPECIAI. NOTES: The Contractor shall be liable for damages to the homes or basements from backups which may
� result during the installation of new pipe.

1.1 Project Description
�` This data report presents the results of the subsurface exploration for sanitary sewer rehabilitation
� and pavement repairs (Water Project No. PS46-070460172890, DOE No. 0789) in Fort Worth,
Texas. The project is locatad at two separate locations. One site is located east of the intersection
of Briardale Road and Business Highway 287 in southeast Fort Worth (Borings B-1, B-2, and B-3).
R" The other site is located near the intersection of Forest Park Boulevard and Park Hill Drive in
southwest Fort Worth (Borings B-4, B-5, B-6, and B-7).
� The overall project will consist basically of new construction of a gravity flow sewer line. This
subsurface exploration data report addresses a section of L-5125 for a proposed 8-inch sanitary
� sewer (Borings B-1, through B-3) and a section of M-74R for a proposed 10-inch sanitary sewer
(Borings B-4 through B-7), as shown on the attached Plan of Borings, Plate A.1.
� During the time of our field exploration, the Briardale Road site consisted of mainly a neighborhood
' setting (near Borings B-1 through B-3) and the Forest Park Boulevard site consisted mainly of small
�. retail and apartments (near Borings B-4 through B-7). All the borings were drilled on asphalt paved
4, roads.
1.2 Purpose and Scope
The purpose of this subsurface exploration data report has been to determine the general subsurface
soil and ground water conditions and present laboratory test results of the subsurFace materials
encountered.
It was recognized at the start of the data report that the scope of services was not intended to fully
define the variability of the soil types and conditions which could be present over the entire site area
or provide geotechnical engineering recommendations for the sewerline, manholes, or any other
structures.
To accomplish its intended purposes, the data report has been conducted in the following phases: (1)
drilling sample borings to determine the general subsurface conditions and to obtain samples for
testing; and (2) performing laboratory tests on selected samples to determine pertinent engineering
properties of the subsurface materials.
The design is currently in progress and the locations and/or elevations of sewerline and structures
associated with the sewerline could change.

1.3 Data Report Format
The text of the data report is contained in Sections 1.0 through 6.0. A list of references is presented
immediately following the end of the data report text. The reference list contains general references
which were used during this data report, but are not specifically cited in the text. All plates and large
tables are contained in Appendices A and B. The alpha-numeric plate and table numbers identify the
appendix in which they appear. Small tables of less than one page in length may appear in the body
of the text and are numbered according to the section in which they occur.
Units used in the data report are based on the U.S. Customary (foot-pound-second) system and may
include tons per square foot (tsfl, kips (1 kip = 1,000 pounds), kips per square foot (ksfl, pounds per
square foot (psfl, pounds per cubic foot (pcfl, and pounds per square inch (psi).
2.0 FIELD EXPLORATION
Subsurface materials at the project site were explored by 7 borings drilled to depths of 15 to 25 feet
in the area of the proposed sewerlines.
The borings were drilled June 22 and 24, 1998, at the approximate locations shown on the Plan of
Borings, Plate A.1. The boring locations were selected by Dunaway Associates, inc. The boring logs
are included on Plates A.4 through A.10 and boring log terms, symbols, and general notes are
provided on Plates A.2 and A.3.
� Undisturbed samples of cohesive soils were obtained with nominal 3-inch diameter thin-walled
(Shelby) tube samplers at selected depths. The tube is hydraulically pushed into the soil by the
drilling rig. The soil samples were extruded from the tube in the field, logged, and packaged to limit
� loss of moisture.
�
The unconfined compressive strength of cohesive soil samples was estimated in the field using a
� calibrated hand (pocket) penetrometer. The results of these tests, in tsf, are listed at the various
" sample depths in the appropriate column on the logs. The maximum capacity of the penetrometer is
-- 4.5 tsf. When the capacity is exceeded, the value is listed as 4.5+.
�
�
�
�
To evaluate the relative density and consistency of the harder formations, a modified version of the
Texas Cone Penetration test was performed at selected locations. Texas Department of
Transportation (Tx-Dot) Test Method Tex-132-E specifies driving a 3-inch diameter cone with a 170-
pound hammer with a free fall of 24 inches. This results in 340-foot pounds of energy for each blow.
This method was modified by utilizing a 140-pound hammer with a free fall of 30 inches. This results
in 350-foot pounds of energy for each hammer blow. In relatively soft (soil) materials, the
2
�
��
t�
�
Report No. 1401-0124 GRO
�
penetrometer cone is driven 12 inches and the number of blows is shown at the various test depths
on the boring log. In hard materials (rock or rock-like), the penetrometer cone is driven a total of 100
blows. The penetration in inches for the 100 blows is shown at the various test depths on the boring
logs.
Disturbed samples of noncohesive granular or stiff to hard cohesive materials were obtained at
selected depths utilizing a nominal 2-inch O.D. split-barrel sampler in conjunction with the Standard
Penetration Test (SPT). The SPT utilizes a 140-pound hammer with a free fall of 30 inches, to drive
the split-barrel sampler. The number of blows required for 12 inches of penetration after an initial
seating interval of 6 inches, is shown as the SPT "N" value at the appropriate depth on the logs of
borings. If less than 6 inches of penetration is achieved, either during or following the seating interval,
the test is terminated and the number of inches achieved during the 50 blows is shown on the boring
log.
Ground-water observations during and upon completion of drilling of the borings are shown on the
�'• boring log. Upon completion of the borings, the boreholes were backfilled with soil cuttings and
' plugged at the surface by hand tamping and the existing asphalt pavement was patched with pre-
-, mixed asphalt.
3.0 LABORATORY TESTING
Routine laboratory tests were performed on specimens from selected samples recovered from the
borings. These tests included moisture content, liquid and plastic limits, percent passing the No. 200
sieve, unit dry weight, Torvane shear, and unconfined compressive strength The results of these
tests are shown at the respective depths in the appropriate columns on the boring logs.
The results of the unconfined compressive strength tests, along with stress-strain curves, are also
presented on Plates 6.2 through 6.5
The above laboratory tests were performed in general accordance with applicable ASTM or U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers procedures, or generally accepted practice.
4.0 SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION
4.1 Geology
Based on available geological maps and field observations, the Briardale Road site (Borings B-1
1 through B-3) is located within the Pawpaw Formation, Weno Limestone, and Denton Clay undivided
and the Grayson Marl and Mainstreet Limstone undivided geological formations. The Forest Park
�.

�
Report No. 1401-0124
GRO
�
Boulevard site (Borings B-4 through B-7) is located within the Fort Worth Limestone and Duck Creek
Formation undivided and the Pawpaw Formation, Weno Limestone, and Denton Clay undivided
geologic formations.
4.2 Subsurface Stratigraphy
Specific types and depths of subsurface strata encountered at the boring locations are shown on the
boring logs in Appendix A. The generalized subsurface stratigraphy encountered in the borings is
discussed below.
Overburden soils encounte�ed in the borings consist of lean clay, lean clay with sand, clayey sand
with gravel, and sandy lean clay. The thickness of the overburden soils at the boring locations at the
Briardale site ranges from approximately 6.0 to 25.0 feet. The thickness of the overburden soils at
the Forest Park site ranges from approximately 2.0 to 22.0 feet.
The clayey soils are generally stiff to hard (soil basis) with pocket penetrometer readings of 1.75 to
over 4.5 tsf and torvane shear strength values ranging from 0.5 to 2.2 tsf. Liquid limit and plasticity
index values ranged from 20 to 59, and 10 to 36, respectively. Percent passing the number 200
mesh sieve ranged from 25 to 86. Unit dry weight values ranged from 97 to 122, and moisture
contents ranged from 8 to 26.
The tan weathered limestone at both sites was hard to very hard (sedimentary rock basis) with THD
cone penetrometer values ranging from 0.125 inches to 1 inch per 100 blows.
The gray limestone at both sites was very hard (sedimentary rock basis) with THD cone
penetrometer values ranging from 0 inches to 0.167 inches per 100 blows.
4.3 Ground-Water Observations
� Ground water was not observed in the borings at the time of the field exploration on June 22 and 24,
` 1998. It is not uncommon, however, to find ground water (perched water tables) along the surface of
—. the limestone encountered in the borings with the amount dependent upon area rainfall.
Fluctuations of the ground-water level can occur due to seasonal variations in the amount of rainfall;
site topography and runoff; hydraulic cond�ctivity of soil strata; and other factors not evident at the
time the borings were performed. The possibility of ground-water level fluctuations should be
considered when developing the design and construction plans for the project.

�
r"
. Water traveling through the soil (subsurface water) is often unpredictable. This could be due to
seasonal changes in ground water and due to the unpredictable nature of ground-water paths.
� Therefore, it is necessary during construction for the contractor to be obsenrant for ground-water
a�" seepage in excavations in order to assess the situation and take appropriate action.
5.0 CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATIONS
In any subsurface exploration data report, the recommendations are based on a limited amount of
-- information about the subsurface conditions. The engineer must assume the subsurface conditions
_ are similar to the conditions encountered in the borings. However, quite often during construction,
� anomalies in the subsurface conditions are revealed. Therefore, rt is recommended that Fugro be
retained to observe actual subsurface conditions in the excavations and perform materials evaluation
� and testing during the construction phase of the project. This enables Fugro to be available to
evaluate unanticipated conditions, to conduct additional tests if required and, when necessary, to
recommend solutions to unanticipated conditions.
It is proposed that construction phase observation and materials testing commence by Fugro at the
outset of the project. Experience has shown that the most suitable method for procuring these
services is for the owner or the owner's design engineers to contract directly for these services,
rather than requiring the contractor to contract for construction matenals testing services.
�
6.0 REPORT CLOSURE
� The borings for this data ��port were staked by Fugro, using approximate taping methods from
existing topographic features. The actual boreholes were placed as close as practical to the staked
� locations. The elevations of the borings were taken off the preliminary construction plans and profiles
provided by Dunaway Associates, Inc., dated October 3, 1997. The locations and elevations of the
borings should be considered accurate only to the degree implied by the methods used in their
� determination. The boring logs shown in this data report contain information related to the types of
y soil encountered at specific locations and times and show lines delineating the interface between
these materials. The logs also contain our field representative's interpretation of conditions that are
� believed to exist in those depth intervals between the actual samples taken. Therefore, these boring
`` logs contain both factual and interpretive information. Laboratory soil classification tests were also
� performed on samples from selected depths in the borings. The results of these tests, along with
visual-manual procedures were used to generally classify each stratum. Therefore, it should be

_ understood that the classification data on the logs of borings represent visual estimates of
classifications for those portions of each stratum on which the full range of laboratory soil
classification tests were not performed. It is not implied that these logs are representative of
�" subsurface conditions at other locations and times.
� With regard to ground-water conditions, this data report presents data on ground-water levels as they
were observed during the course of the field work. In particular, water level readings have been
�"" made in the borings at the times and under conditions stated in the text of the data report and on the
boring logs. It should be noted that fluctuations in the level of the ground-water table can occur with
passage of time due to variations in rainfall, temperature and other factors. Also, this data report
� does not include quantitative rnformation on rates of flow of ground water into excavations, on
pumping capacities necessary to dewater the excavations, or on methods of dewatering excavations.
I� Unanticipated soil conditions at a construction site are commonly encountered and cannot be fully
predicted by mere soil samples, test borings or test pits. Such unexpected conditions frequently
require that additional expenditures be made by the owner to attain a properly designed and
I�' constructed project. Therefore, provision for some contingency fund is recommended to
' accommodate such potentio! extra cost.
� The information contained in this data report is based on site conditions as they existed at the time of
our field exploration. If, during construction, different subsurface conditions from those encountered
� in our borings are observed, or appear to be present in excavations, we must be advised promptly so
that we can review these conditions. If there is a substantial lapse of time between submission of this
data report and the start of the work at the site, if conditions have changed due either to natural
� causes or to construction operations at or adjacent to the site, or if finish grades are changed, we
urge that we be promptly informed and retained to review our data report considering the changed
� conditions and/or time lapse.
The scope of our services did not include any environmental assessment or investigation for the
� presence or absence of wetlands or hazardous or toxic materials in the soil, surface water, ground
water or air, on or below or around the site. The scope of our seniices also did not include any
� geotechnical recommendations, evaluation of the site for suitability for the intended construction or
use, other than those items specifically addressed in this data report.
