BYPASS PUMPING

Bypass pumping shall usually be made by plugging the upstream manhole and
pumping the sewage into the downstream manhole, or by pumping into an
alternate sewer system of adequate capacity to handle the additional sewage flow.
The pump and bypass lines shall be sized to handle the anticipated flows.

Contractor shall investigate and determine the purpose and source of all lateral
connections. Methods shall include, but are not limited to, internal inspections
within adjacent buildings, smoke testing and dye testing. Contractor shall record
location, size, material and relative invert elevation of each lateral connection with
respect to the pipeline. Contractor shall note presence of floor drains or other
outlet pipes in adjacent buildings. Contractor shall obtain written approval from
the Owner prior to any testing and/or building entry. Contractor shall verify that
lateral connections have been installed according to plumbing codes and have
traps to prevent the migration of odors into buildings.

3.02 INSTALLATION PROCEDURES

A.

INSTALLATION

Installation of the liner shall be through existing or new manholes. Excavation for
liner insertion shall not be permitted except to remove and replace the manhole
cones, if necessary and/or required.

WATER

Where water is used for insertion and curing processes it may be supplied from
existing fire hydrants. The Contractor shall make arrangements for obtaining
water.

RESIN IMPREGNATION

1. The Contractor shall designate a location where the liner tube will be
impregnated with resin prior to installation. The liner tube shall be
impregnated by vacuum or other approved means. The Contractor shall allow
the Owner and Engineer to inspect the materials and “wet out” procedure. A
resin and catalyst system compatible with the requirement of this method shall
be used.

2. Materials shall be transported to, and stored at, the site in such a manner that
they will not be damaged, exposed to direct sunlight, or result in any public
safety hazard. All materials shall be subject to inspection and review by the
Engineer prior to installation.

LINER INSERTION

The impregnated tube shall be inserted through existing or new manholes and the
application of a hydrostatic head, compressed air, or other means sufficient to fully
extend it to the next designated manhole. The liner shall be installed at a rate
greater than 3 feet per minute and less than 10 feet per minute.

02650-7

E.

F.

The Contractor shall ensure that the pressure in the liner exceeds both the pressure
due to the groundwater head and any pressure due to sewage in laterals or
connecting side sewers

A pre-liner may be installed prior to liner inversion in sewers with infiltration or
missing pipe sections.

CURING

1. After insertion of the tube is complete, the Contractor shall provide a suitable
heat source and distribution system to circulate hot water, air, and/or steam
through the pipe as recommended by the manufacturer. The equipment shall
be capable of delivering hot water, air, and/or steam to uniformly raise the
temperature above that required to cure the resin. This temperature shall be
determined by the manufacturer based on the resin/catalyst system employed.

2. The heat source piping shall be fitted with suitable continuous monitoring
thermocouples to gauge the temperature of the incoming and outgoing curing
medium. The temperature of the curing medium shall meet the requirements
of the resin manufacture as measured at the heat source inflow and outflow
return lines. Additional continuous monitoring thermocouples shall be placed
between the impregnated felt tube and the pipe invert at the manholes. The
curing medium temperature in the line during the cure period shall be as
recommended by the resin manufacturer. Care shall be taken during the
elevated curing temperature so as not to over stress the liner materials.

3. Initial cure shall be deemed to be completed when inspections of the exposed
portions of liner appear to be hard and sound and the remote temperature
sensor indicates that the temperature is of a magnitude to realize an exotherm.
The cure temperature shall be held for the period recommended by the resin
manufacture, during which time the distribution and control of the curing
medium shall continue. Curing the CIPP shall consider the host pipe material,
resin/catalyst system, ambient temperature, moisture level, and thermal
conductivity of the soil.

COOL-DOWN

The Contractor shall cool the hardened liner to a temperature below 100 degrees F
before relieving the pressure in the section. Cool-down may be accomplished by
the introduction of cool water or air into the lined pipe to replace water or steam
and water being drained. Water shall be drained from a small hole made in the
downstream end. Care shall be taken in the release of the static head or air
pressure so that a vacuum will not be developed that could damage the pipe or the
newly installed lining. After the tube is cured, a cool down period shall be used
prior to opening the downstream plug and returning normal flow back into the
system.

02650-8

3.03

SEALING AT MANHOLES

A tight seal at the manhole walls consisting of a resin mixture compatible with the
liner/resin system may be applied in accordance with manufacturer specifications.

FINISH

The finished CIPP shall be continuous over the entire length of any section
and be as free as commercially practicable from visual defects such as
foreign inclusions, dry spots, pinholes and delamination.

SECTION 02650A

SPECIFICATION FOR CURED IN PLACE POINT REPAIR

1. Intent:

It is the intent of this specification to provide for the rehabilitation of sewers by installation of a
resin- impregnated Fiberglas / carbon fiber patch into the existing pipe using an inflatable
element and air / steam pressure. Curing shall be accomplished by either ambient curing or by
steam to cure the resin / fiber glass / carbon fiber cloth to a hard, impermeable corrosion
resistant pipe within a pipe.

2. General:

a. Design:
A cured-in-place pipe installed in a limited portion of a partially deteriorated or damaged
existing underground, nonpressurized pipe designed to support hydraulic, soil and live loads.

b. General Procedures:
The installation of a pipe within a pipe shall be defined as the rehabilitation of an existing
conduit by the installation of a composite material tube (resin-impregnated glass fiber / carbon
fiber composite), which is first formed into a freely overlapping tube from a sheet and is then
pulled into the sewer by a winch.

After insertion, the tube shall be inflated using air pressure, then cured by ambient temperature
or steam to make the said composite material tube into a hard, impermeable pipe. The repair
shall extend a minimum of one foot past either end of the defect.

c. Corrosion Resistance:
The pipe within a pipe shall be fabricated from materials which, when cured, will be able to
withstand internal exposure to sewage gases containing hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide,
carbon dioxide, methane, dilute sulfuric acid, and external exposure to soil bacteria and
chemical attack which may be due to materials in the surrounding ground or sewage within.

3. Application:

The application of this process is applicable in the repair of structural defects in pipes 4
to 30 inches in diameter and to repair defects 2 to 50 feet in length. Other sizes of special
requirements may be requested by the Owner's Representative and designed by the licenser
for approval by the Owner's Representative.

4. Reference Specifications:

The design, materials, method of installation, and test method shall be in accordance with
design criteria published by the licenser and supplied to the Engineer.

5. Materials:

a. The tube shall be fabricated from a resin-impregnated glass fiber / carbon fiber sheet
to a size which, when installed, will closely approximate the internal circumference

02650A - 1

of the conduit specified. An allowance shall be made for changes in circumference
of the conduit by free overlap during inflation of the tube.

b. The minimum length shall be determined to effectively span the designated defective
section, plus one foot at either end. The lengths shall be verified in the field before
pulling the tube into the pipe.

c. The thickness of the pipe within a pipe shall be designed to conform to actual field
conditions.

d. Physical Properties: The cured repair material shall conform to the following
structural standards:

Flexural Modulus of Elasticity 1,200,000 psi

6. Preparatory Procedures:
The following procedures shall be adhered to unless otherwise approved.

a. Safety:
Safety shall be in strict accordance with all applicable OSHA standards. Particular attention is
drawn to those safety requirements involving entry into a confined space.

b. Flow Control:
As required for acceptable completion of installation, the sewage flow maintenance around the
sections of pipe designated for rehabilitation shall be carried out. The bypass shall be made by
plugging the line at a point upstream of the pipe to be rehabilitated and pumping the flow to a
downstream point of adjacent system. The pump and bypass lines shall be of adequate capacity
and size to handle the flow specified in the job specifications. When necessary, any bypass
pumping shall be arranged to prevent any backflow in the sewer system.

c. Cleaning:
Cleaning of the sewer pipe shall be carried out immediately before TV inspection.
d. TV Inspection:

TV inspection of the sewer pipe shall be carried out immediately before insertion of the tube
to ensure that the sewer is clean and that the pipe conditions have not changed.

7. Installation Procedures:
The process of installing a repair using the system involves the following steps:

a. Inspect fault in conduit using closed circuit television (CCTV) and record detail.
Estimate dimensions of fault and length of repair required. Wherever possible, flow
through a conduit should be interrupted during inspection and cleaning.

b. Clean conduit by whatever method is deemed suitable for the type of deposits /
debris encountered and condition of the conduit. High pressure water jet cleaning is
normally most effective.

c. Reinspect conduit using CCTV

d. Prepare epoxy resin and fiber glass and carbon fiber cloth using pre-measured kits.
The pot life of the resin can be adjusted and supplied to suit the ambient temperature
of the site. The resin can also be cured with steam.
