Install entrance tapers and tapered inlets so that they function properly and efficiently, keep material in the dike, and prevent water from percolating under or around them. The seal between the taper or inlet and the surrounding material must be watertight.
Connect an entrance taper to a downdrain pipe by means of a band coupler or a slip joint.
Weld or rivet bulkheads and outlet pipes or flume pieces to the taper or inlet to form watertight connections.
Securely anchor a downdrain to the slope of the ground as shown if the downdrain is not in a trench.
Cable must not contact soil in finished position. Either adjust position or replace affected portion of cable with galvanized steel rod of equivalent diameter.
If a plastic pipe joint restrainer assembly under Alternative A is used, install it immediately below the pipe bell.
The bell end of a plastic pipe overside drain must face uphill.
69-1.04 PAYMENT
The payment quantity for pipe downdrain is measured along the centerline of the pipe and parallel with the slope line. The payment quantity includes the length of elbows, wyes, tees, and other branches to the point of intersection. If the pipe is cut to fit a structure or slope, the payment quantity is the length of pipe necessary to be placed before cutting, measured in 2-foot increments. Payment for the length of slip joints is not included in the payment for pipe downdrain.
The payment quantity for pipe downdrains under concrete slope paving is measured from the beginning of the corrugated steel pipe to the end of the downdrain.
The payment quantity for an entrance taper includes the length of the tapered section and the tail pipe.
The payment quantity for a tapered inlet includes the length of the tapered section and the flume stub.
