67-3.03 CONSTRUCTION


Install pipes in existing embankments and natural ground by the tunnel method, except you may use open trench methods with shaped bedding near the entrance if authorized.

Excavation must not precede plate installation by more than the width of a plate. Do not leave any excavation, including the face, unsupported except during excavation activities. Voids between the liner plate and the wall of the excavation must be force-grouted within 8 hours of excavation.

Assemble liner plates under the pipe manufacturer’s instructions.

Handle plates in a way that prevents bruising, scaling, or breaking of spelter coating. Replace plates damaged during handling or placing, and plates with damaged spelter coating, except you may repair small areas of spelter coating with minor damage under section 75-1.02B if authorized.

Tighten bolts specified in:

1. ASTM A307 to a torque from 25 to 60 ft-lb

2. ASTM A449 to a torque from 60 to 120 ft-lb
Metal liner plate pipe must not vary by more than 1 foot from the line established by the Engineer and by more than 0.5 foot from the grade established by the Engineer.

Grouting equipment must be:

1. Capable of grouting at a pressure of at least 100 psi

2. Equipped with a pressure gauge having a full-scale reading of not more than 300 psi

Force the grout through grouting holes in the plates in such a sequence and with enough pressure to completely fill the voids. Remove the plugs in grouting holes adjacent to the grouting hole being force-grouted to allow inspection of the grout filling.

You may use free-running aggregate forced pneumatically into the voids between the liner plate and the wall of the excavation as temporary support of the excavation. Pressure grouting of aggregate must comply with section 50-1.03B(2)(d) if the aggregate is pressure grouted within 72 hours of excavation.


67-3.04 PAYMENT


The payment quantity for metal liner plate pipe is the length measured along the centerline of the pipe and parallel with the slope line.

3. Minimum thickness of sheet must be 0.060 inch.


You may substitute sleeve type couplings for band couplers required under AASHTO M 196.

The couplings must be plastic or aluminum, suitable for holding the pipe firmly in alignment without the use of sealing compound or gaskets. The couplings must have mechanical properties that will prevent distortion under normal conditions of use.
