inspect the materials and “wet out” procedure. A resin and catalyst system
compatible with the requirement of this method shall be used.

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.

D. 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.

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 required prior to liner installation in sewers with infiltration or
missing pipe sections.

E. CURING
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.

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.

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.

Nashua, NH 02650-9

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.

SEALING AT MANHOLES
A tight seal of the liner 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.

3.05 REINSTATEMENT OF SERVICES

A.

SERVICE CUTS

All live services shall be reinstated as soon as practical after rehabilitation,
testing, and cooling of sewer lines. Inactive services may be left unopened as
directed by the Engineer. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to document all live
services prior to lining. Each service connection shall be noted by its size,
position from a reference manhole, and orientation with respect to the
circumference of the pipe. Reconnection shall be accomplished from the interior
of the sewer line by means of a television camera and a remote controlled cutting
device. Excavation to activate existing sewer services shall not be allowed.

CUTTING AND BRUSHING

Holes cut through the rehabilitation liner shall be done in a two-step process. The
holes shall be first cut open with a router bit or deburring tool, and then brushed
with a wire brush to a neat and smooth surface. Holes shall reopen service lines to
a minimum of ninety (90%) percent of the service lateral. A one-step process that
accomplishes the same effect may be used if approved by the Engineer.

3.09 TESTING, INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE

A. MATERIAL TESTING

1.

All material testing shall be performed by a registered independent, third-
party laboratory, and paid for by the Contractor.

The Contractor shall provide test results of the short term properties of the
cured lining material in the quantity of one test per liner batch, or 3,000 feet of
installed liner, or as required by the Owner. The liner shall be in compliance
with the physical properties described in these Specifications. Flexural

strength and modulus shall be tested in accordance with the requirements of
ASTM D 790.

B. INSPECTION

C.

D.

1.

After the work is completed, the Contractor shall inspect the pipeline by
closed circuit color television inspection and shall provide the Engineer with
one copy of a videotape or acceptable digital format recording of this
inspection log for the Owner’s records. Any repaired areas shall be re-
televised.

FIELD TEST (THICKNESS)

1.

Remove the CIPP liner material from the host pipe core samples. Remove
any inner liner film, pre-liner and resin that is not contained within the tube.
Measure the liner thickness at three spots on each sample. The resulting six
measurements will be averaged. The average thickness shall be equal to or
greater than the required thickness for the particular section. No undersize
allowance is permitted. In accordance with D 790-03, referenced in ASTM
1216, the calculated wall thickness refers only to the part of the liner that
consists of a saturated tube. Elements that are not part of the saturated tube do
not contribute to the structural integrity of the liner, thereby excluding tube
that is not fully saturated or portions of resin without the tube carrier.

ACCEPTANCE

1.

Prior to final acceptance, any defects that may affect the integrity or strength
of the pipeline is the opinion of the Engineer shall be repaired by the
Contractor at no additional cost to the Owner.

. Pipeline shall be true to line and grade, with no visual bulges, sags,

protrusions, deflections, offset joints, leaking joints, or other visible
infiltration, or other defects that would impair the intended use of the
completed pipeline.
