It is the intent of the City of Fort Worth to comply with the requirements of the Asbestos National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) found at 40 CFR Part fit, Subpart M. This specification will establish procedures to be used by all Excavators in the removal and disposal of asbestos cement pipe (ACP) in compliance with NESHAP. Nothing in this specification shall be construed to void any provision of a contract or other law, ordinance, regulation or policy whose requirements are more stringent. B. ACP is defined under NESHAP as a Category 11, non-friable material in its intact state but which may become friable upon removal, demolition and/or disposal. Consequently, if the removal/ disposal process renders the ACP friable, it is regulated under the disposal requirements of 40 CFR 61.150. A NESHAP notification must be filed with the Texas Department of Health. The notification must be filed at least ten days prior to removal of the material. If it remains in its non - friable state, as defined by the NESHAP, it can be disposed as a conventional construction waste. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defines friable as material, when dry, which may be crumbled, pulverized or - reduced to powder by hand pressures. C. The Generator of the hazardous material is responsible for the identification and proper ,., handling, transportation, and disposal of the material. Therefore, it is the policy of the City of Fort Worth that the Excavator is the Generator regardless of whether the pipe is friable or not. D. It is the intent of the City of Fort Worth that all ACP shall be removed in such careful and prudent manner that it remains intact and does not become friable. The Excavator is responsible to employ those means, methods, techniques and sequences to ensure this result_ E. Compliance with all aspects of worker safety and health regulations including but not limited to the OSHA Asbestos Standard is the responsibility of the Excavator, The City of Fort Worth assumes no responsibility for compliance programs, which are the responsibility of the Excavator.

NIATERIA.LS - Not specified. 91/07/04 ASC-1 5 PART DA - ADDITIONAL SPECIAL CONDITIONS C. EXECUTION Infiltration Testing_ All interior coated manholes and all partial replacement manholes shall be observed (tested) by the Contractor in the presence of the Engineer for sources of infiltration. Observations will be made during high groundwater conditions, wherever possible. Manholes shall be tested after installation with ail connections (existing and/or proposed) in place. Drop-connections and gas sealing connections shall be installed prior to testing. The lines entering ,., the manhole shall be temporarily {Mugged with the plugs braced to prevent them from being drawn into the manhole. The plugs shall be installed in the lines beyond drop-connections, gas sealing connections, etc. The test head shall be placed inside the frame at the top of the manhole (so that the manhole frame seal is tested) and inflated in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. A vacuum of 10 inches of mercury shall be drawn, and the vacuum pump will be turned off. With the valve closed, the level of vacuum shall be read after the required test time. If the drop in the level is less than 1-inch of mercury(final vacuum greater than 9-inches of mercury), the manhole will have passed the vacuum test. After a successful test, the temporary plugs will be removed. The required test time is determined from Table I.

(Example: A 30(thirty)foot deep, 48 (forty-eight) inch Manhole Total Test Time would be 75.0 seconds. 45.0+6(5.0)=75.0 seconds] (Values listed above are extrapolated from ASTM C924-85). Manhole vacuum levels observed to drop greater than 1-inch of mercury (Final vacuum less than 9- inches of mercury) will have failed the test and will require additional rehabilitation. The Contractor shall make-the necessary repairs to the already completed rehabilitation work at no additional compensation. If the failure of the vacuum test is determined to be due to preexisting conditions not on the manhole rehabilitation schedule for that manhole, this additional work may be authorized by the Owner's Representative. After completion of the additional rehabilitation the manhole shall then be re-tested as described above until a successful test is made. Only one payment for manhole vacuum testing will be made on each manhole. .� Vacuum testing is required on all manholes having interior rehabilitation. 11102104 ASC-16 PART DA - ADDITIONAL SPECIAL CONDITIONS �- Inflow Testing.

The law, that in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, non-resident y bidders (out-of-state contractors whose corporate offices or principal place of business are outside of the state of Texas) bid projects for construction, improvements, supplies or services in Texas at an amount lower than the lowest Texas resident bidder by the same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be required to underbid a non-resident bidder in,the order to obtain a comparable contract in the state in which the non-resident's principle place of business is located. The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all out-of--state or non-resident bidders in order for your bid to meet specifications. The failure of out-of-state or non-resident contractor's to do so will automatically PM disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders must check the box in Section B. A. Non-resident vendors in (give state), our principal place of business, are required to be percent lower than resident bidders by state law. A copy of the statute is attached. Non-resident vendors in (give state), or principal place of business, are not required to underbid resident bidders. B. Our principal place of business or corporate offices are in the State of Texas.

The exploration borings were conducted in general accordance with our communications and authorization to proceed with this investigation provided via Mr_ John Atkins, P.E. of Kimley-Horn and - Associates, Inc. on July 9, 2004. The boring locations were specifically identified by Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc, and located west of the Hulen Street Bridge and south of the Union Pacific Flail Yard in Fort Worth, Texas. Plates 1 and 2 present detailed descriptions of the materials encountered in the borings F Y and the results of moisture content and laboratory identification performed by CMJ Engineering, Inc. Plates 3 and 4 present nomenclature utilized on the boring logs. Detailed descriptions of r the field and laboratory procedures are on file and available upon request. Subsurface materials consist of 6 to 9 feet of fill material, underlain by an additional 3Y� to 15Y-- feet of possible fill, which is thereby underlain by natural soils definitively identified at depths of 9'/7 to 24 feet. All onsite soils generally consist of sandy clays, silty clays, sandy clay/clayey L sand, and silty sandy clays existing in a firm to very stiff state: Gravel occurs in the majority of the materials, Standard Penetration blow counts conducted on near surface samples resulted in "N" values varying from 24 to 30 glows per foot. Similar Standard Penetration test sampling in Boring B-1 at a depth of 34 to 35 feet resulted in a blow count of 20 blows per foot. Hand penetrometer values at the sampling locations resulted in variations between 1.0 and over 4.5 tons per square foot. Phone(817)284-9400 - - -:- Fax(817) 589-9993 •_r _ Metro (817)589-9992 G.M.

Barings B-1 and B-2 encountered seepage at 9 feet and 29 feet, respective}y_ At the end of field work, water levels were recorded at depths of 25 to 32 feet. Readers should understand that water levels will fluctuate with seasonal climatic changes and the relative level of water in the adjacent Clear Fork Trinity River.

TYPES OF TEMPORARY SHORING 1. A shoring box is a prefabricated shoring system which is installed as the excavation progresses. This shoring system is not accepted by the Railroad. This system is allowed in special applications only, typically where Railroad five load surcharge is not present. The shoring box is moved down into the excavation by gravity or by applyirig vertical leading frurTT excavation equipment. 2. Anchored systems with tiebacks are discouraged. The tiebacks will be an obstruction to future utility installations and may also damage existing utilities. Tiebacks must be removed per Railroad direction. Removal of tieback assemblies is problematic. 3_ An anchored sheet pile wail is a structure designed to ,provide lateral support for a soil mass and derives stability from passive resistance of the soil in which the sheet pile is embedded and the tensile resistance of the anchors_ a. For purposes of these guidelines, ground anchors shall be cement-grouted tiebacks designed, furnished, installed, tested and stressed in accordance with the project specifications and AREMA requirements_ 4. An anchored soldier beam with lagging wall is a structure designed to provide lateral support for a soil mass and derives stability from passive resistance of the soil in which the soldier beam is embedded and from the tensile resistance of the ground anchors. a. Anchored soldier beam with lagging walls are generally designed as flexible structures which have sufficient lateral movement to mobilize active earth pressures and a portion of the passive pressure. b. For purposes of these specifications, soldier beams include steel H-piles, wide flange sections or other fabricated sections that are driven or set in drilled holes. Lagging refers to the members spanning between soldier beams. 5. A cantilever sheet pile wall is a structure designed to provide lateral support for a soil mass and derives stability from passive resistance of the soil in which the sheet pile is embedded. If cantilever sheet pile is used for shoring adjacent to an operating track, the shoring system shall be at least 12'-0" away from the centerline of track. Cantilever sheet pile walls shall be used only in granular soils or stiff clays. 6. A cantilever soldier beam with lagging wall is a structure designed to provide lateral support for a soil mass and derives stability from passive resistance of the soil in which the soldier beam is embedded. 7. A braced excavation is a structure designed to provide lateral support for a soil mass and derives stability from passive resistance of the soil in which the vertical members are embedded and from the structural capacity of the bracing members. a. For purposes of these guidelines, the vertical members of the braced excavation system include steel sheet piling or soldier beams comprised of steel H-piles, wide flange sections, or other fabricated sections that are driven or installed in drilled holes. Wales are horizontal structural members designed to transfer lateral loads from the vertical members to the struts, Struts are structural compression members that support the lateral loads from the wales. 8. A cofferdam is an enclosed temporary structure used to keep water and soil out of an excavation for a permanent structure such as a bridge pier or abutment or similar structure. Cofferdams may be constructed of timber, steel, concrete or a combination of these. These guidelines consider cofferdams primarily constructed with steel sheet piles. 6. GENERA.

When bulkheads are used for waterfront construction, the bulkhead is subjected to a maximum earth pressure at the low water stage. During a rainstorm or a rapidly receding high water, the - water level behind the bulkhead may be several feet higher than in front of the bulkhead. b. Drained conditions in backfill apply when clean sand or clean sand and gravel are used and adequate permanent drainage outlets are provided. Where drained conditions exist, the design water Level may be assumed at the drainage outlet elevation. 5. Active earth pressure due to surcharge load. The active earth pressure due to surcharge load q'- 0 Pu= KAq', where K, - tan2(45 - 2 } 5. Passive earth pressure. The passive earth pressure, PP, in front of the bulkhead may also be computed by the Coulomb Theory. R Pp= Kp r zp where KP=tan`(45 +z 3 zP vertical distance beginning one foot below dredge line but not to exceed embedment depth 7. Pressure due to embankment surcharges. Conventional analysis (Rankine, Coulomb, or Log-Spiral) should be used to determine the �. additional surcharge from embankment slopes. 8.

STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY Structures and structural members shall be designed to have design strengths at all sections at least equal to the required strengths calculated for the loads and forces in such combinations as stipulated in AREIIAA Chapter 8 Part 2 Article 2.2.4b, which represents various combinations of loads and forces to which a structure may be subjected. Each part of the structure shall be proportioned for the group loads that are applicable, and the maximum design required shall be used. 1. Embedment depth. a. Calculated depth of embedment is the embedment depth required to maintain static equilibrium. GUIDELINES FOR TEMPORARY SHORING,Published October 25,2004 9 b. Minimum depth of embedment is the total depth of embedment required to provide static equilibrium plus additional embedment due to the minimum factor of safety. 1. Embedment depth factor of safety for well-defined loading conditions and thoroughly cetermined soil parameters is generally 1.3 for most temporary shoring systems. (See AREMA 8.20.4.1.c) 2. All anchored shoring systems require a minimum embedment depth of 1.5 times the calculated depth of embedment. Shallow penetration into strong soil layers is not acceptable.

Typically the equations are evaluated on 6" increments to determine the maximum e values along the depth of the shoring system. The resultants must be combined with other applicable pressures and loads to evaluate the total loading on the shoring system for the entire depth of the system. Determine the minimum embedment depth required and the minimum cross sectional properties of the shoring system based on the allowable stresses and the required factors of safety. 1 GUIDELINES FOR TEMPORARY SHORING,Ptblished October 25,2004 A-2 r CHART A c This chart identifies the active pressure and resulting forces due to E80 liveload. �e See"SAMPLE PROBLEM"sheet for definitions of variables and equations.
