If the work, or any part thereof, shall be stopped by the notice
in writing aforesaid, and if the Contracting Authority does not give notice
in writing to the Contractor to resume work at a date within twenty (20)
days of the date fixed in the written notice to suspend, except in the
case of litigation, then the Contractor may abandon that portion of the
work so suspended, and he will be entitled to the estimates and payments for
all work done on the portions so abandoned, if any..
19. THE CONTRACTING AUTHORITY'S RIGHT TO DO: WORK:
If the Contractor should neglect to presecute the work properly or
fail to perform any provision of this Contract, the Contracting Authority
after three (3) day's written notice to the Contractor may without prejudice
to any other remedy it may have, make good such deficiencies, and nay de-
duct the cost thereof from payments then or thereafter due the Contractor.
20. THE CONTRACTING AUTHORITY'S RIGHT TO TERNN!INATE CONTRACT:
If the Contractor should be adjudged a bankrupt, or if he should
make a general assignment for the benefit of his creditors, or if a receiver
should be appointed on account of his insolvency, or if he should refuse or
should fail, except in case for which extension of time is provided to
supply enough properly skilled workmen or proper materials, or if he should
fail to make prompt payment to Subcontractors or for material or labor, or
desregard laws, ordinances, or the instructions of the Engineer, or other-
wise be guilty of a substantial violation of any provision of the Contract,
then the Contracting Authority, upon the certificate of the Engineer that
sufficient cause exists to justify such action, may, without prejudice to
any other right or remedy and after giving the Contractor ten (10) day's
written notice, terminate the employment of the Contractor as provided under
Paragraph 21, immediately following. In such case, the Contractor shall
not be entitled to receive any further payment until the work is finished.
If the unpaid balance of the contract price shall exceed the expense of
finishing the work, including compensation for additional managerial and
administrative services, such excess shall be paid to the Contractor. if
such expenses shall exceed such unpaid balance, the:Contractor shall pay
the difference to the Contracting Authority. The expense incurred by the
Contracting Authority as herein provided and the damage incurred through
the Contractor's default, shall be certified by the Engineer.
1i
22
Pending settlement of disputes on any point of controversy, „Y
the Engineer may suspend action on all or any part of the work. The
Contractor shall not be entitled to any claim for loss or damage by
reason of such delay, nor shall he be entitled to extension of time,
although such extension of time may be granted by the Engineer if he
deems it in the interest of the work.
21. TERMINATION FOR BREACH:
In the event that any of the provisions of,this Contract
are violated by the Contractor or by any of his Subcontractors, the
Contracting Authority may serve written notice upon the Contractor and
the Surety of its intention to terminate such Contract, such notices to
contain the reasons for such intentions to terminate the Contract, and
unless within ten (10) days after the serving of such notice upon the
Contractor such violation shall cease and satisfactory arrangements for
correction by made, the Contract shall, upon the expiration of said ten
(10) days, cease and terminate. In the event of any such termination,
the Contracting Authority shall immediately serve notice thereof upon
the Surety and the Contractor, and the Surety shall have the right to
take over and perform the Contract, provided, however, that if the
Surety does not commence performance thereof within thirty (30) days
from the date of the mailing to such Surety of notice of termination,
• the Contracting Authority may take over the work and prosecute the
•sametto':completion by contract for the account and at the expense of
• the Contractor, and the Contractor and his Surety shall be liable to the
Contracting Authority for any excess cost occasioned the Contracting
Authority thereby, and in such event the Contracting, Authority may
take possession of and utilize in completing the work, such materials,
appliances, and plant as may be on the site of the work and necessary
therefor.
22. PAYMENTS WITHHELD:
The Contracting Authority may withhold or, on accout of.
subsequently discovered evidence, nullify the whole or part of any
certificate to such extent as may be necessary to protect the contract-
ing Authority from loss on account of:
(a) Defective work not remedied,
(b) Claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating
probable filing of claims,
(c) Failure of the Contractor to make payments properly
to Subcontractor or for material or labor,
(d) Damage to another Contractor,
(e) Incomplete work
When the above grounds are removed, payment shall be made for amounts
withheld because of them.
23. DELAYS AND
If, at any
by an act or neglect
by any other Contrac
changes or additions
EXTENSIONS OF TIME:
time, the Contractor considers he is being delayed
of the Contracting Authority or its employees, or
for employed by the Contracting Authority, or by any
ordered in the work, or for any reason beyond his control,
23
he -,shall within ten (10) days from the beginning of such delay notify the
Engineer in writing of the causes of any such delay. Extensions 61 time,
with relief from responsibility for liquidated damages incurred by the
Contracting Authority on account of such delay, will be granted the
Contractor, when, in the opinion of the Engineer, the causes so called to
his attention warrant such extensions of time. No claims for delay will
be considered unless such notice has been filed with the Engineer within
the time specified above.
The Contractor will be required to furnish the Engineer two copies
of each purchase order for materials and equipment as they are issued. If.
the Contractor shall seek an extension of time because of delay in receiving
delivery of critical materials, such extension of time may be granted when,
in the opinion of the Engineer, the extension is warranted and the delay is
in no way caused by the Contractor's financial status or by any act or
failure to act on the part of the Contractor. Failure to get items of
material or equipment not essential to the completion of those portions of
the work, which, in the opinion of the Engineer requires supervision by an
Engineer, shall not be deemed justification for waiver of liquidated damages,
however, even though such delays are beyond the Contractor's control, and
even though such items of material or equipment may be essential to the
actual placing in operation of a portion of all of the project. When such
items of materials or equipment are delayed for reasons beyond the Contractor's
control, he shall complete all other work within the specified construction
period.
Extensions of time, without relief from responsibility for liqui-
dated damages incurred by the Contracting Authority on account of delays,
may be granted the Contractor on account of his failure to complete the work
within the time specified.
24. ADDITIONAL, OMITTED, OR CHANGED WORK:
The Contracting Authority, without invalidating the Contract may
order additional work to be done in connection with'the Contract or may alter
or deduct from the work, the Contract sum to be adjusted accordingly.
Additional work shall be done as ordered in writing by the Engineer,
-which order shall state the location, character, and amount of extra
work. All such work shall be executed under the conditions of the original
contract and subject to the same inspection and tests as though therein
included.
Compensation for additional, omitted, or changed work shall be
adjusted as follows:
Any changes in quantities of work for which unit prices are required
in the Proposal shall be at and for the price bid. Work for which prices
are not required shall be paid for or deducted, as the case may be, upon
the basis of an estimate prepared by the Contractor and approved by the
Engineer, prior to the written order changing the quantity of work.
If the Contractor claims compensation for additional work not
ordered as aforesaid, or for claims of damages sustained, he shall make a
written statement of claims for compensation or damages to the Engineer,
24
which statement shall be in the hands of the Engineer within such•time as
will allow a full consideration of the basis for such claim, and in no
• case later than fifteen (15) days after the work has been completed or
damages sustained. The Contractor shall furnish, if required, any accounts,
bills, or vouchers relating thereto. Unless such claims are made as re-
ruired, they shall be considered forfeited and invalid.
The Contracting Authority reserves the right to contract with any
person or firm other than the Contractor for any or all extra work. The
Contractor's attention is especially called to the fact that he shall be
entitled to no claim for damages for anticipated profits on any portion of
• the work to be omitted.
25. ARBITRATION:
(a) Demand for Arbitration. Any-decision.of the Engineer which
is subject to arbitration shall be submitted to arbitration upon the demand
of either party to the dispute.
;• The Contractor shall not cause a delay of the work because of the
pendency of arbitration proceedings, except with the written permission of
the Engineer, and then only until the arbitrators shall have any oppor-
tunity to determine whether or not the work shall continue until they decide
the matters in dispute.
The demand for arbitration shall be delivered in writing to the
Engineer and the adverse party, either personally or by registered mail to
the last known address of each, within ten (10) days of the receipt of the
Engineer's decision, and in no case after final payment has been accepted.
If the Engineer fails to make a decision within a reasonable time, a demand
for arbitration may be made as if his decision had been rendered against
the demanding party.
(b) Arbitrators. No one shall be nominated or act as an arbitra-
tor who is in any way financially interested in this Contract or in the
business affairs of the Contracting Authority, or the Contractor, or the
Engineer, or otherwise connected with any of them. Each Arbitrator shall
be a person in general familiar with the work or the problem involved in
the dispute submitted to arbitration.
Unless otherwise provided by controlling statutes, the parties may
agree upon one arbitrator; otherwise there shall be three, one named in
writing by each party to this Contract, to the other party, and the third
chosen by those two arbitrators.
If there be one arbitrator, his decision shall be binding; if
three, the decision of any two shall be binding in respect to both the
matter submitted to and the procedure followed during the arbitration.
Such decision shall be a condition precedent to any right of legal action.
(c) Arbitration Procedure. The arbitrators shall deliver a
written notice to each of the parties and to the Engineer, either personally
or by registered mail to the last known address of each, of the time and
place for the beginning of the hearing of the matters submitted to them.
II

•P
!1 • Each party may submit to the arbitrators such evidence and argumerfts as• he
f.
may desire and the arbitrators may consider pertinent. The arbitrators shall, however, be the judges of all matters of law and fact relating to
both the subject matters of and the procedure during arbitration and shall
not be bound by technical rules of law or procedure. They may hear
evidence in whatever form they desire. The parties may be represented
before them by such persons as each may select, subject to the discipli-
nary power of the arbitrators if such representative shall interfere with
the orderly or speedy conduct of the proceedings.
Each party, and the. Engineer, shall supply the arbitrators with
such papers and information as they demand, or with any witness whose move-
ments are subject to their respective control, and upon refusal or neglect
to comply with such demands, the arbitrator may render their decision
without the evidence which might have been solicited, therefrom, and the
absence of such evidence shall afford no ground for challenge of the award
by the party refusing or neglecting to comply with such demand.
The submission to arbitration (the statement of the matters in
dispute between the parties to be passed upon by the arbitrators) shall be
writing duly acknowledged before a notary. Unless waived in writing by
both parties to the arbitration, the arbitrators, before hearing testimony,
shall be sworn by an officer authorized by law to administer an oath,
faithfully and fairly to hear and examine the matters in controversy and tc
make a just award according to the best of their understanding.
The arbitrators, if they deem the case demands it, are authorized
to award to the party whose contention is sustained such sums as they
shall consider proper for the time, expense, and trouble incident to the
arbitration, and if the arbitration was demanded without reasonable cause,
damages for delay, and other losses.
The award of the arbitrators shall be in writing and acknowledged
like a deed to be recorded, and a duplicate shall be delivered personally
or by registered mail forthwith upon its rendition, to each of the parties
to the controversy and to the Engineer. Judgement may be rendered upon
the award by the Federal Court or by the highest State Court having juris-
diction to render same.
The award of the arbitrators shall not be open to obiection on
account of the form of the oroceedinas or the award, unless otherwise
provided by the controlling statutes. In the event of such statutes pro-
viding on any matter covered by this Article otherwise than as herein -
before specified, the method of procedure throughout and the legal effect
of the award shall be wholly in accord with said statutes, it being the
intention hereby to lay down a principle of action to be followed, leaving
its local application to be adapted to the legal requirements of the
jurisdiction having authority over the arbitration.
The Engineer shall not be deemed a party to the dispute. He is
given the right to appear before the arbitrators to explain the basis of
his decision and give evidence as they may require.

REFERENCE TO MANUFACTURER OR TRADE NAMES:
Whenever a material, article or piece of equipment is
identified on the plans or in the specifications by reference to
manufacturers' or vendors' names, trade names, catalogue numbers, etc.,
it is intended merely to establish a standard; and, any material,
article, or equipment of other manufacturers and vendors which will perform
adequately the duties imposed by the general design will be considered
equally acceptable provided the material, article, or equipment so proposed,
is, in the opinion of the Engineer, of equal substance and function. It
shall not be purchased or installed by the contractor without the Engineers'
written approval.
27. USE OF COMPLETED PORTIONS:
The Contracting Authority shall have the right to take
possession of and use any completed or partially completed portions
of the work, notwithstanding that the time for completing the entire work
on such portions may not have expired; but such taking possession and use
shall not be deemed an acceptance of any work not completed in accordance
with the Contract Documents. If such prior use of completed portions
increases the cost of, or delays the work, the Contractor shall be entitled
to such extra compensation or extension of time, or'both, as the Engineer
may determine.
The Contracting Authority, in taking possession of completed
portions, shall agree to accept the decision of the Engineer, on matters
relating to responsibility for damages that may occur to any portion of
the work during the period of possession preceding acceptance and final
payment.
28. ACCEPTANCE AND FINAL PAYMENT:
As soon as the work has been substantially and satisfactorily
completed, the Engineer will make a final estimate stating that the work
provided for under this Contract has been completed and is accepted by
him under the terms and conditions thereof, with qualifications, if any,
as stated. If certain parts of the work are not completed or if certain
corrections must be made in the work even though the work is substantially
completed, the Engineer is authorized to determine the amount which in his
opinion is required for completion and/or correction of the work, and such
amount may be withheld from the final payment to the Contractor, pending
the completion and correction as required. The balance. found to be due the
Contractor shall be paid by the Contracting authority within forty (40)
days after the date of the final estimate. Prior to filing for final
estimates, the Contractor shall file with the Engineer a receipt in full
from each manufacturer, subcontractor, dealer and supplier for all equipment
and material used on the work and a complete release of all liens which may
have arisen from this Contract. In lieu thereof, the Contractor shall file
statements showing balance due or claimed on all accounts and the Contracting
Authority shall have the right, if it so elects, to withhold sufficient
money to pay such balances until receipts in full or satisfactory evidence
of final determination are filed with the Engineer who may then make
the final estimate.
27
The making and acceptance of the final payment shall ,.
constitute a waiver of all claims by the Contracting Authority, other than
those arising from incomplete or uncorrected work, unsettled liens, or
• from faulty workmanship or materials, and of all claims by the Contractor,
except those previously made and still unsettled.
If the work has been partially but substantially completed
to the extent that all adjustments in the Contract sum may be made, the
Engineer may, if material delay in completion is anticipated or if
otherwise deemed in the interest of the work, make the final estimate,
retaining, in addition to other requirements which may be specified
under payments, an amount representing the cost of unfinished work.
Such payment shall be under the terms and conditions governing final
payment.
Neither the making of the final estimate, or final payment,
shall relieve the Contractor of his responsibility for faulty materials
or workmanship, and he shall remedy any defects and pay for any damage
resulting therefrom which shall appear within a period of one (1) year
from the date of substantial completion. The Owner shall give notice of
observed defects with reasonable promptness, and all questions arising
under this paragraph shall be decided by the Engineer.
29. PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR: '
The Engineer will on or about the Twentieth (20th) day of
each month make an estimate of the work done. As soon thereafter as
possible, and as soon as the Contractor has filed receipted bills showing
that he has paid the previous month's bills, the Contractor will be paid
seventy (70) percent of the value of work in place, plus ten (10) percent
for that portion of the work accepted for beneficial occupancy, plus (20)
percent of the value of work that has been properly cleaned up, plus
fifty (50) percent of the value of the materials on the job site but
not in place (figured from the Contractors paid invoices), minus amounts
previously paid. A final estimate will be made following the final
inspection as provided under paragraph 28, after which time and within a
period of forty (40) days, the Contractor will be paid the full amount of
the contract price, less amounts previously paid. Payment will be made
only for the actual quantities installed.
The Contracting Authority may withhold or, on account of sub-
sequently discovered evidence, nullify the whole or part of any certificates
to such extent as may be necessary to protect the Contracting Authority
from loss on account of:
(a) Defective work not remedied,
(b) Claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of
claims,
(c) Failure of the Contractor to make payments properly to Sub-
contractor or for material or labor,
(d) Damage to another Contractor,
(e) Incomplete work.
C -
no
I
When the above grounds are removed, payment shall be made for amounts
withheld because of them.
30. SHOP AND ERECTION DRAWINGS:
The Contractor shall furnish the Engineer with triplicate
copies of all shop and erection drawings for approval. These drawings
shall include the drawings prepared on structural and reinforcing steel,
special layout drawings of equipment or machinery purchased under this
Contract, and other supplementary drawings required in the prosecution
of the work. One copy shall be returned to the Contractor and two
copies retained by the Engineer for field and office reference. The
approval of such drawings by the Engineer does not constitute an
acceptance of responsibility of their accuracy.
31. LABORATORY TESTS:
All material entering into the work is subject to various
tests as may be required by the specifications. The cost of all such
tests shall be the responsibility of the Contractor furnishing such
material. i
The Contractor shall also bear the cost of any tests arising
out of his desire to use materials which may be questionable in the
opinion of the Engineer.
32. DRINKING WATER AND SANITARY FACILITIES:
The Contractor shall provide safe drinking water for his
workmen during the construction period. The water shall be delivered
through a spigot, angle jet fountain, or other approved device. Common
drinking cups will be prohibited.
The Contractor shall furnish adequate sanitary facilities
for workmen in the work area during the construction period.
33. CONSTRUCTION SAFETY:
Throughout these specifications, whenever engineering
decisions are to be made to ensure adequate construction in accordance
with the plans and specifications, such inspection and engineering
decisions are not to be construed as supervision of the Contractors'
work force, nor make the Engineer responsible for providing a safe place
for the performance of the work by the Contractor or the Contractors'
employees or those of the suppliers, his subcontractors, nor for access,
visits, use, work, travel, or occupance by any person, as these responsi-
bilities are covered under the provisions of the contract, the
Contractors insurance and performance bond and cannot be the responsi-
bility of the Engineer.
The above provision does not prevent the Engineer or his
29
r.
� r
personnel from requiring reasonable safety standards, if, in the
f
course of their technical supervision, it comes to the attention of
the Engineer that reasonable safety standards are not being carried
out.

DETAILED SPECIFICATIONS
PART II - CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATIONS
• II -I PLANNING AND EXECUTION OF THE WORK:
I. The construction work included under these specifications
shall be so planned and executed that the various portions of the work will
be carried on concurrently and the whole completed within the time allowed.
Water -main connections requiring shut -down of water service
to users shall be coordinated through the City Engineer.
II -2 EXCAVATION - GENERAL:
All excavation shall be carried accurately to the line and
grade shown on the Plans and established by the Engineer. When excavation
is carried below or beyond that required, the space shall be filled for
compacted SB-2. No claim for additional compensation shall be made for
such backfilling of excess excavation unless the Contracting Authority or -
its agent is responsible for the error.
When necessary to protect the laborers, the work, or adjacent
property, the Contractor shall provide and install shoring. Such shoring
• shall remain in place until the backfill has proceeded to a point where it
can be safely removed, except that, if in the opinion of the City Engineer
damage is liable to result from withdrawing shoring, it shall remain in
place.
II -3 EXCAVATION -.TRENCHES FOR WATER MAINS:
Trenches for water lines shall be the width and depth necessary
for the proper installation of the pipe. All pipelines shall be laid in
trenches of such depth as to provide a minimum . cover of thirty-six inches
over the top of pipe barrel unless otherwise shown on the Plans. Contractor
shall increase depth as necessary for crossing other pipe lines and to provide
required cover for valves and valve boxes. Trench will be deepened to the
extent necessary so as not to exceed the maximum permissible deflection of
the pipe being installed, with maximum permissible deflection being as
recommended by the pipe manufacturer.
Width of pipe trench for all water lines shall be adequate for
the installation of the pipe and make-up joints, but in no case shall the
width of the trench at the top of the pipe be wider than the outside diameter
of the pipe plus two (2) feet.
The bottom of the trench shall be accurately graded so that the
pipe will be in continuous and uniform contact with and have a longitudinal
bearing on undisturbed soil for the full length of the pipe, except for such
distance as necessary for adequate bell holes and proper sealing of the
pipe joints.
DS -3
i.
Ill [ pl
If the soil at the bottom of the trench is mucky or if the
subgrade is too soft to properly support the pipe, the Contractor shall
excavate below the. lower extremity of the pipe as directed by the Engineer,
and place a cushion of sand, gravel, or crushed stone thoroughly tamped into
place to receive the pipe. Material used for this purpose shall be SB-2.
II -4 EXCAVATION - ROCK IN TRENCHES:
Rock excavation shall be defined as solid rock in formation
which cannot be excavated efficiently by adequate power shovels or excavators
of recognized standard manufacture in good condition and adequate size, well
handled by skilled operators; and boulders or pieces of detached rock, which
may be embedded in materials not classed as rock, exceeding ten (1) cubic
feet in volume.
The term "excavated efficiently" as used in this Specification
shall mean that where formation rock can be excavated at a lower cost per
cubic yard of useful excavation by blasting, barring, or wedging, it shall
be so excavated and will be classified as rock.
The Contractor's attention is called to the fact that a shale
formation exists in Fayetteville that generally can be dug and, therefore
this material will not be classified as rock except where it cannot be
efficiently excavated as defined above.
The volume of rock excavation shall be determined by the
horizontal measurement of length of trench in which rock occurs, the vertical
measurement of depth of rock and a width of "D". "D" shall be the nominal
diameter of the pipe plus 15 inches, but not less than 24 inches.
II -5 EXCAVATION - CLASSIFICATION, MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT:
All excavation not classed as rock shall be classed as
common excavation.
T volumes of rock exT\4all be.det ed per Section
11 -4 of these Specific s. Rock e cal paid for at the unit
contract price given in the es�1. /tin
The cost of all mmiI excav�ttos4trenches for water mains
shall be included in thgetrtFct unit price for pipe shall not be paid
for separately. ock excavation in trenches for water ma hall be
measured a d for as rock excavation.
II -6 BLASTING:
Blasting will be permitted only when proper precautions are
taken for the protection of persons, the work, and adjacent property; and
any damage done to the work or property by blasting shall be repaired by
the Contractor at the Contractor's expense.
D5-4
All operations involving the procurement, handling, u3e, and
storage of explosives shall be in full compliance with applicable State and
Federal statutes and regulations.
Blasting will be done only after securing written permission
from the City Engineer's office.
The Contractor shall be liable for all injuries or deaths to
persons or damage to property caused by blasts or explosions.
The attention of the Contractor is called to Section 9 of
the General Conditions of the Specifications entitled "Insurance".
The cost of all work under this Section shall be included in
the Contract, unit price for rock excavation and will not be paid for separately.
II -7 BACKFILLING:
All trenches shall be backfilled immediately after the pipe is
•
laid using methods that will not disturb the pipe. Material used for backfilling
shall consist of the excavation or borrow of sand, gravel, or other material
approved by the. Engineer, and shall be free of trash, lumber and other debris.
• After the pipework has been approved, trenches shall be backfilled
with fine, loose earth free from clods or stones larger than three (3) inches in
any dimension, and of proper moisture content. This selected material shall be
carefully deposited by hand in layers not to exceed four (4) inches in thickness
on both sides of the pipe and thoroughly and carefully rammed around the pipe
until the backfill has been brought up to the springline of the pipe. The back -
fill shall then continue without tamping but with same material, placed by hand,
to a point at least twelve (12) inches above the top of the pipe. If the
excavation is not suitable for this purpose, as determined by the Engineer, then,
SB-2 shall be used for this operation.. The remainder of the backfill may then be
backfilled by any approved method which will not injure or disturb the pipe.
Trenches outside the public right-of-way will be neatly graded up
and left slightly "over -full" so that subsequent settlement will leave the route
level with the surrounding terrain. Trench on public property shall be filled
and refilled as necessary to provide a smooth, well -graded appearance.
All backfill shall be settled and consolidated until further
settlement will not occur. It is the intent of this Specification that the
Contractor shall be responsible for settlement of backfill in all work covered,
herein. He shall refill trenches as often as necessary to bring them back to
original grade, and during that period settlement is occuring shall refill them
often enough to avoid hazardous conditions or inconvenience.
All excavated material which is unsuitable, or not needed for
backfill shall be wasted or disposed of to the satisfaction of the Engineer.
Surfaces shall be cleaned up, all hummocks and piles smoothed down and the
surface left neat and workmanlike. Where existing drainage ditches are
disturbed or obstructed with excavated material, such material shall be
entirely removed and the ditch left true to original line and grade. Street
shoulders shall be restored to their original contours.

i
{ i
. 1
All roadways and driveways shall be backfilled with SB-2 up to
the road surface. The roadway and driveway surface shall then be replaced as
called for elsewhere in these Specifications.
The attention of the Contractor is called to a separate Section
in these specifications concerning crossing lawns.
• SB-2 shall be measured and paid for as subgrade material at the
unit contract price given in the proposal.
The cost of all other work described in this section shall be
included in the unit contract price for the installation of pipe and shall not
be paid for separately.
Water for flooding trenches shall be furnished free of charge
by the City of Fayetteville.
II -8 HANDLING AND LAYING OF WATER PIPE:
In the transportation, unloading, and handling of water pipe,
the pipe shall not be dropped, let roll and collide with another pipe, or be
subjected to any unnecessary jar, impact, or other treatment that might crack
or otherwise damage the pipe.
Before laying pipe in trench, the bottom of the trench shall be
carefully graded and prepared and bell holes excavated so the pipe shall have
a uniform support along its entire length, except at bell holes, and shall
not be allowed to rest on hard supports through a portion of its length only.
All pipe shall have at least 36 inches of cover, unless otherwise shown on the
Plans.
Deflections from a straight line or grade, as required by vertical
curves, horizontal curves, or offsets, shall not exceed 6/D inches per linear
foot of pipe, where D represents the nominal diameter of the pipe expressed in
inches, between the centerlines extended between any two connecting pipes.
If the alignment requires deflections in excess of these limitations, special
bends, or a sufficient number of shorter lengths of pipe shall be furnished
to provide angular deflections within the limit set forth above, as approved
by the Engineer.
The inside of the pipe and all parts involved in jointing shall
be cleaned of all dirt, mud, grease, and other foreign material before the
pipe is laid or the joint started. Ends of pipe shall be temporarily plugged
at the close of each day's work.
In laying mechanical joint or 'push -on' joint pipe, the
manufacturer's recommendations for securing good joints shall be rigidly
followed. The laying of the pipe shall be done in accordance with applicable
AWWA Standards.
DS -6
