LAYING PIPE. Complete trenching and backfilling as specified. Inspect sewers when line is completed and backfill has been placed to a depth of one foot over the pipe. Complete backfill only after approval of each section has been given for line and grade.
LAYING PIPE. Every possible precaution shall be taken to prevent foreign material from entering into the pipe as it is being placed in the trench. Likewise, no foreign matter shall be allowed to enter into the joint area between pipes. If there is any question as to foreign material having gotten into the joint, the joint shall be taken apart and checked and made up again in the proper manner. The inside of every pipe, as it is lowered into the trench, shall be checked for any dirt or stone or other debris, or any material whatsoever which may be inside the pipe, and such extraneous material shall be cleared out and the pipe made completely clean before it is jointed into the next pipe in the trench. Precautions shall be taken such that no backfill material shall enter the open end of the pipe already laid in the trench, and every effort shall be made to prevent trench water from entering the pipe. Whenever pipe laying is not in progress, a watertight plug or other effective means shall be used for keeping any extraneous material from entering into the pipe. Any water in the trench shall be kept down by pumps, such that it will be below the invert of the pipe already laid. Sump holes may be dug in the bottom of the trench, off center of the pipe, for the purpose of keeping the pump suction below the gradient of the bottom of the pipe. No pipe shall be laid in water or when, in the opinion of the PWD representative, conditions are not suitable for laying.
LAYING PIPE. Delete the fourth paragraph and replace with the following: Lay pipe with preformed gasketted joints. Before placing succeeding pipe sections, place approved joint material on the lower half of the joint, to bring the inner surface of the abutting pipe, even, flush with the previously placed section such that the flow of water is not obstructed in any manner. Thoroughly clean and dry the connecting surfaces of the bell and spigot or spigot and sleeve before connecting each joint. Lubricate the rubber gaskets and the inside surface of the bell or sleeve with a light film of soft vegetable soap compound (flax soap). Stretch the rubber gasket uniformly while placing it in the spigot groove to insure a uniform volume of rubber around the circumference of the pipe. Connect the joint by means of a pulling or jacking force so applied to the pipe that the spigot enters squarely into the bell in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. When the spigot has been seated to within 2 inch of its final position, check the position of the gasket in the joint around the circumference of the pipe by means of metal feeler gauge. In any case where the gasket is found to be displaced, disengage the joint and reconnect it properly. After the position of the gasket has been checked, completely pull the spigot into the bell and adjust the section of pipe to line and grade. Clean the exterior annular space between the ends of the pipe sections and completely fill with joint sealing compound before placing the bedding or cradle. Clean all dust, lubricants, and other substances from the surfaces that would interfere with a bond between the compound and the pipe. If recommended by the manufacturer of the compound, coat the concrete surfaces with a primer in accordance with the manufacturer recommendations. Apply primer to concrete surfaces only. Do not come in contact with the gasket sealing surfaces. Make sure the surface is dry unless the compound or primer is specifically recommended for use on moist concrete. Allow the joint sealing compound to cure until it is sufficiently firm to prevent the entry of concrete or earth into the joint before concrete, bedding, or backfill is placed against it. Pipes will be inspected before any backfill is placed. Remove and relay any pipes found to be out of alignment, unduly settled, or damaged, at no additional expense to the Commission. Fill voids for lift holes with mortar after pipe is placed.
