ITEM 501- UNDERDRAINS
Underdrains
• An underdrain is a drainage system installed
under a road or road ditch to collect and
transport subsurface water. These buried
conduits come in a variety of shapes and sizes
and are usually wrapped in geotextile fabric
which allows water to enter the conduit while
keeping sediment out.
501.1 Description
• This item shall consist of constructing
underdrains, using pipe and granular filter
materials, underdrain pipe outlets, and blind
drains using granular material in accordance
with this Specification and in reasonably close
conformity with the lines and grades shown on
the Plans or as established by the Engineer.
501.2 Material Requirements
• Material shall meet the requirements specified in the following specifications:
• Zinc coated (galvanized) corrugated iron or steel Culverts and underdrains
AASHTO M 36 Extra strength and standard strength clay pipe and perforated
clay pipe AASHTO M 65 Perforated concrete pipe AASHTO M 175 Porous concrete
pipe AASHTO M 176 Bituminized-fiber non-pressure sewer drain and
underdrainage pipe systems AASHTO M 177 Asbestos-cement perforated underdrain
pipe AASHTO M 189
• Granular Backfill Filter Material – Granular backfill filter material
shall be permeable and shall meet the requirements of AASHTO M 6,
except that soundness tests will not be required and minor variation in
grading and content of deleterious substances may be approved by the
Engineer.
•501.3.1 Pipe Installation
Trenches shall be excavated to the dimensions and grades required by
the Plans or as directed by the Engineer. A minimum of 150 mm bedding
layer of granular backfill material shall be placed and compacted at the
bottom of the trench for its full width and length.
Subdrainage pipe of the type and size specified shall be embedded firmly
in the bedding material.
501.3.2 Underdrain Outlets
Trenches for underdrain outlets shall be excavated to the width and
depth shown on the Plans or as otherwise directed. Pipes shall be laid in
the trench with all ends firmly joined by the applicable methods and
means. After inspection and approval of the pipe installation, the trench
shall be backfilled in accordance with Item 103, Structure Excavation.
501.3.3 Blind Drain
Trenches for blind drains shall be excavated to the width and depth
shown on the Plans. The trench shall be filled with granular backfill
material to the depth required by the Plans. Any remaining upper portion
of trench shall be filled with either granular or impervious material in
accordance with Item 103, Structure Excavation.
501.4 Method of Measurement
Underdrains and outlets shall be measured by the linear meter for pipe of
the type and size specified. Blind drains shall be measured by the linear
meter including all excavation and backfill materials required.
Granular backfill filter material, when specified in the Contract as a pay
item shall be measured in place by the cubic meter, completed and
accepted. Cross-sectional measurements will not exceed the net
dimensions shown on the Plans or as directed by the Engineer.
Excavation for underdrain pipe will be measured and paid for as provided
in Item 103, Structure Excavation.
501.5 Basis of Payment
The accepted quantities determined as provided in Section 501.4, Method
of Measurement, shall be paid for at the contract unit prices.
Payment will be made under:
ITEM 502 – MANHOLES,
INLETS AND CATCH BASINS
MANHOLES,
INLETS AND CATCH BASINS
• Inlet - a place or means of entry.
• Manhole - a small covered opening in a floor,
pavement, or other surface to allow a person to
enter, especially an opening in a city street leading
to a sewer.
• Catch basins - A catch basin, which is also known
as a storm drain inlet or curb inlet, is an opening to
the storm drain system that typically includes a
grate or curb inlet at street level where storm water
enters the catch basin and a sump captures
sediment, debris and associated pollutants.
MANHOLES,
AND CATCH
BASINS
502.2 Material Requirements
Concrete for these structures shall meet the requirements of Item 405,
Structural Concrete. Other materials shall meet the following
specifications:
- Corrugated Metal Units
- Sewer and manhole brick
- Frames, Gratings, Covers and Ladder Rungs
- All castings shall be uniformly coated with asphalt-based emulsion
meeting the requirements of ASTM D 1187, Asphalt-base Emulsion for
use as Protective Coating for Metal.
- Pre-cast Concrete Units
- Plants
- Cracks in units
502.3 Construction Requirements
Concrete construction shall conform to the requirements for Item 405,
Structural Concrete.
Metal frames shall be set in full mortar bed. Pipe sections shall be
flushed on the inside of the structure wall and projected outside
sufficiently for proper connection with next pipe section. Masonry shall fit
neatly and tightly around the pipe. When grade adjustment or existing
structures is specified, the frames, covers and gratings shall be removed
and the walls reconstructed as required. The cleaned frames shall be
reset at the required elevation. Upon completion, each structure shall be
cleaned of any accumulation of silt, debris, or foreign matter of any kind
and shall be kept clear of such accumulation until final acceptance of the
work.
Excavation and backfill shall be done in accordance with Item 103,
Structure Excavation.
502.4 Method of Measurement
Standard manholes, inlets and catch basins, both new and reconstructed
as applicable, will be measured by the unit. Any additional concrete,
reinforcing steel, or masonry required for authorized increases in heights
of structures paid of under this Item and in excess of the standard height
shown on the Plans will be measured and paid for under Item 405,
Structural Concrete and Item 404, Reinforcing Steel, as applicable.
Structures noted on the Plans as “junction boxes” will be measured for
payment as manholes.
The number of concrete covers, pairs of metal frames and gratings, and
pairs of metal frames and covers will be measured as acceptably
completed.
The number of existing manholes, inlets and catch basins adjusted as
directed will be measured as acceptably completed.
502.4 Method of Measurement
The accepted quantities, determined as provided in Section 502.4,
Method of Measurement of the Pay Items in the Bill of Quantities will be
paid for at the contract unit prices, which shall constitute full
compensation for furnishing and placing all materials and for all labor,
equipment, tools and incidentals necessary to complete the Item.
Excavation and backfill will be measured and paid for as provided in Item
103, Structure Excavation.
