942.1 General Description

This section includes general requirements in support of the ITS specifications and defines the following procedures: submittal process and requirements, construction management, maintenance support, testing, training, final inspection, and close-out. In addition, the pay item defined in Section 942 includes work related to equipment configuration and integration services for pay items included in their respective sections.

942.1.01 Definitions, Acronyms, and Abbreviations

A. Definitions The following definitions are common to all ITS specifications: 1. Acceptance Test: consists of two sub-tests, including system operational test (all sections) and burn-in test (all sections). These tests verify full device and system functionality and performance over the network in day- to-day operations. 2. Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ): refers to GDOT districts, counties, or local municipalities. 3. Dead Zone: a “peak” or “blind spot” on an OTDR trace where no measurement can be made. Dead zones are prominent at the beginning of a trace or at any other high reflectance event. 4. End-to-End Segment: also called end-to-end link. The overall segment(s) of fiber optic cable being tested, including, connectors and splices, from patch panel to patch panel. 5. Failure: ITS device or ancillary equipment element becoming unable to comply with the Project requirements and applicable standards described in the Contract documents. 6. GDOT Central Software: software and hardware system that controls and monitors associated ITS devices in the Contract. 7. ITS Specifications: specifications that include materials, construction, measurement, and payment requirements for the following sections: 631, 694, 926, 935, 936, 937 (except material that applies to traffic signal, ramp meter installations and other applications as noted in the specification), and 939. 8. Maintenance Acceptance Letter (MAL): letter issued by the Department when acceptance test, final inspection, and close-out activities as specified herein, including all punch list items, have been completed by the Contractor and approved by the Department. The Department may also choose to issue a partial MAL for specific ITS devices. 9. Network Equipment: equipment defined in Sections 631, 694, 926, 935, 936, 937, and 939 that communicates with an Ethernet interface. 10. Pre-Installation Test: consists of two sub-tests including (1) fiber optic reel test (Section 935) and (2) DMS test (Section 631). These tests verify setup, device inspection, basic DMS functionality, and fiber optic attenuation and continuity test on the reel. 11. Repair Time: the time it takes, exclusive of requirements for the coordination of any lane closures, to diagnose, repair, and re-establish full functionality and operations of the site(s). 12. Response Time: the time it takes the Contractor to mobilize repair technician(s) from the time they receive the problem notification from the Department and arrive at the site(s). 13. Stand-Alone Test: consists of three sub-tests including (1) field site test (all sections), (2) local operational tests (all sections), and (3) fiber optic post-installation test (Section 935 only). These tests verify device functionality locally prior to connecting to the network, and complete fiber optic testing from patch panel to patch panel. 14. Submittal: documentation required by the Contract that the Contractor must submit for the Department’s review, acceptance, or approval. Submittals may include product cut-sheets, shop drawings, working drawings, material test reports, material certifications, Project progress schedules, and schedule updates. B.
