THE CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH <br />PROJECT NO. 21-1011 <br />BUILDING DEPARTMENT RELOCATION TO ANNEX <br /> <br />Project No. 21-1011 November 2024 022300 -4 <br /> <br />6. If, in the opinion of the Engineer of Record or the Department, the soil at that <br />depth is unsatisfactory as foundation material because it contains marl, muck, <br />organic matter, or other unsuitable material, the excavation shall be continued 2 <br />feet deeper, except if a suitable foundation material is exposed at a lesser depth, <br />further excavation will not be required. <br /> <br />7. When the pipe to be installed in a trench requires the pipe installers to work under <br />and around the pipe, the Contractor may request the Department that he be <br />allowed to exceed the 12" maximum clearance, specifying the clear distance <br />desired. <br /> <br />8. The ends of existing mains shall be temporarily capped or plugged to keep them <br />clean, and the ends of all mains shall be temporarily anchored to keep the joints <br />from blowing apart from internal pressure until the new mains can be reconnected <br />to them. <br /> <br />9. In addition to specific construction methods specified, the general requirements in <br />subsequent subsections, below, shall apply to the work of this project. <br /> <br />3.3 EMBANKMENT CONSTRUCTION <br /> <br />A. The CONTRACTOR shall construct by the dry fill method as specified by FDOT Specification <br />Section 120-8.2. <br /> <br />3.4 COMPACTION <br /> <br />A. The CONTRACTOR shall compact each layer of material used in the formation of the <br />embankments to a density of at least [90, 95, 100] percent of the maximum density as <br />determined by [ASTM D D698-00a, D1557-00]. Each layer shall be uniformly compacted <br />using equipment which will achieve the required density, and as compaction operations <br />progress, each layer shall be shaped and manipulated as necessary to assure uniform <br />density throughout the embankment. The material being compacted shall be maintained <br />within plus or minus 2 percent of its optimum moisture content during compaction. <br /> <br />3.5 FINAL DRESSING <br /> <br />A. As a final grading operation, the CONTRACTOR shall shape the surface of the earthwork <br />to conform to the lines, grades and cross sections shown on the drawings or as directed <br />by the ENGINEER. The tolerances of 0.3 feet above or below the plan cross section will <br />be permitted with the following exceptions: <br /> <br />1. The surface of shoulders and subgrade shall be shaped to within 0.1 foot of the <br />drawing cross section. <br /> <br />2. Earthwork shall be shaped to match adjacent pavement, curb, sidewalk, etc. <br /> <br /> <br />END OF SECTION
