G. MGL Chapter 82 Section 40 4.3 DEFINITIONS

A. Definitions applicable to this Section are as follows: B. Earth Retention Systems - Any structural system, such as sheeting and bracing or cofferdams,

designed to retain in-situ soils in place and prevent the collapse of the sides of an excavation in order to protect employees and adjacent structures.

C. Benching - A method of protecting employees from cave-ins by excavating the sides of an excavation to form one or a series of horizontal levels or steps, usually with vertical or near-vertical surfaces between levels.

D. Excavation - Any man-made cut, cavity, trench, or depression in an earth surface, formed by earth removal.

E. Protective System - A method of protecting employees from cave-ins, from material that could fall or roll from an excavation face or into an excavation, or from the collapse of adjacent structures. Protective systems include earth retention systems, sloping and benching systems, shield systems, and other systems that provide the necessary protection.

14

F. Registered Professional Engineer - A person who is registered as a professional engineer in the state where the work is to be performed. However, a professional engineer, registered in any state is deemed to be a "registered professional engineer" within the meaning of this standard when approving designs for "manufactured protective systems" or "tabulated data" to be used in interstate commerce.

G. Shield System - A structure that is designed to withstand the forces imposed on it by a cave-in and thereby protects employees within the structure. Shields can be permanent structures or can be designed to be portable and moved along as work progresses. Additionally, shields can be either pre-manufactured or job-built in accordance with 29 CFR 1926.652(c)(3) or (c)(4). Shields used in trenches are usually referred to as "trench boxes" or "trench shields."

H. Sloping - A method of protecting employees from cave-ins by excavating to form sides of an excavation that are inclined away from the excavation so as to prevent cave-ins. The angle of incline required to prevent a cave-in varies with differences in such factors as the soil type, environmental conditions of exposure, and application of surcharge loads.

I. Trench - A narrow excavation (in relation to its length) made below the surface of the ground. In general, the depth is greater than the width, but the width of a trench (measured at the bottom) is not greater than 15 feet (4.6 m).

4.4 SUBMITTALS A. Drawings and calculations for each earth retention system required in the Work. The submittal

shall be in sufficient detail to disclose the method of operation for each of the various stages of construction required for the completion of the earth retention systems. 1. The submittal shall be made in a timely manner to afford the Engineer adequate time to

review the design before any work is started on the earth retention system. The review of the design by the Engineer shall not relieve the Contractor of any responsibility.

2. The submitted calculations and drawings shall be prepared, signed and stamped by a Registered Professional Engineer.

3. All excavation, trenching, and related earth retention systems shall comply with the requirements of OSHA excavation safety standards (29 CFR Part 1926 Subpart P) and State requirements. Where conflict between OSHA and State regulations exists, the more stringent requirements shall apply

B. Performance data for the compaction equipment to be utilized. C. Construction methods that will be utilized for the removal of rock on the project. D. Standard Proctor Test (ASTM D698) results and soil classification (ASTM D2487) for all

proposed backfill materials at the frequency specified below: 1. For suitable soil materials removed during trench excavation, perform one test for every

1,000 cubic yards of similar soil type. Similarity of soil types will be as determined by the Engineer.

2. For borrow materials; perform tests at frequency specified in Section 02320 - Borrow Materials.

E. Compaction test results (i.e. ASTM D2922 and ASTM D3017 or ASTM D1556) at a frequency of one test for every 100 cubic yards of material backfilled. The Engineer will determine the locations and lifts to be tested. 1. The Engineer may specify additional compaction testing when there is evidence of a

change in the quality of moisture control or the effectiveness of compaction. 2. If all compaction test results within the initial 25% of the total anticipated number of tests

indicate compacted field densities equal to or greater than 95% of maximum dry density

15

at optimum moisture content, the Engineer may reduce frequency of compaction testing. In no case will the frequency be reduced to less than one test for every 500 cubic yards of material backfilled.

3. The Contractor is cautioned that compaction testing by nuclear methods may not be effective where trenches are so narrow that trench walls impact the attenuation of the gamma radiation or where oversize particles (i.e. large cobbles or coarse gravels) are present.

4.5 PROJECT CONDITIONS A. Notify Dig Safe and obtain Dig Safe identification numbers. The provisions of MGL C.82 S.40

are included in the Work. B. Notify utility owners in reasonable advance of the work and request the utility owner to stake

out on the ground surface the underground facilities and structures. The Contractor shall notify the Engineer in writing of any refusal or failure to stake out such underground utilities after reasonable notice, and the Engineer and the Contractor will jointly take reasonable action to determine the location of such utility before the beginning of excavation.

C. Make explorations and excavations to determine the location of existing underground structures, pipes, house connection services, etc. in accordance with 3.2.D of this Section.

PART 5 PRODUCTS 5.1 SOIL MATERIALS

A. Fill material is subject to the approval of the Engineer and may be either material removed from excavations or borrow from off site.

5. Install underground warning tape over the pipe in accordance with Section 02317. B. Laying Pipe

a. Install pipe with a minimum of 5 feet of cover, unless specifically indicated otherwise on the Drawings or directed by the Engineer.

b. Take every precaution to prevent foreign material from entering the pipe while it is being placed in the line. If the pipelaying crew cannot put the pipe into the trench and in place without getting earth into it, the Engineer may require that, before lowering the pipe into the trench, a heavy, tightly woven canvas bag be placed over each end and left there until the connection is made to the adjacent pipe. During laying operations, no debris, tools, clothing or other materials shall be placed in the pipe.

2. When laying pipe, the spigot end shall be centered in the bell, the pipe forced home and the joint completely assembled. The pipe shall be adjusted to correct line and grade and secured in place with approved backfill material, properly tamped under and around the pipeline.

3. When laying the pipe, fittings that do not allow a sufficient and uniform space for joints shall be removed and replaced with pipe or fittings of proper dimensions to ensure a uniform space and a satisfactory joint.

C. Cutting Pipe 1. Pipe furnished on the job shall be furnished in full lengths. Cut ductile iron pipe without

damage to the pipe or cement lining. The cutting shall be done to leave a smooth end at right angles to the axis of the pipe.

2. Cut ductile iron pipe either by the use of compression-type chain cutters which exert an even continuous force on the wall of the pipe or by power driven abrasive wheels.

3. On ductile iron pipe using rubber joints, the outside edge of the cut end must be tapered back approximately ¼ inch at an angle of about 30 degrees so as to provide for the proper assembly of this joint. This beveling of the outside edge of the end of the pipe can be done with a coarse file or portable grinder.

D. Permissible Deflection at Joints 1. Wherever it is necessary to deflect pipe from a straight line, either in the vertical or

horizontal plane, to avoid obstructions or where long-radius curves are permitted, the amount of deflection allowed shall not exceed one-half of the manufacturer’s maximum allowable joint deflection, and shall be approved by the Engineer.

2. In general, radius curves called for on the Drawings or permitted at the time of construction are to be made using full lengths of pipe. The use of short lengths of pipe and extra joint in order to make a smaller radius turn will not be allowed without the written approval of the Engineer.

9.9 PUSH-ON JOINTS A. Push-on joints shall be made in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Insert rubber

gasket in the groove of the bell end of the pipe. Install gaskets in the pipe after lowering the pipe into the trench for installation. The bell and spigot shall be thoroughly cleaned of dirt and tar blisters in the trench utilizing a wire brush or bristle brush. Apply lubricant per the
