Design the jacking head so that pressure is uniformly applied around the ring of the pipe. Provide a backstop or jacking frame to adequately resist pressure of the jacks under load. Set pipe on guides properly fastened together to support the pipe in the proper direction at correct grade. Provide suitable cushioning material, such as plywood, between sections of concrete pipe. Excavate material ahead of the pipe and remove through the pipe. Do not extend excavation more than 24 inches beyond the forward end of pipe. When the character of embankment material dictates, reduce the excavation distance to prevent the embankment from being damaged. Dispose of excavated material in accordance with 202.02 . When excavating on the underside of pipe, conform to the contour and grade of the pipe for at least one -third the circumference of pipe. Provide a clearance of not more than 2 inches for the upper half of pipe, tapered to zero at the point where excavation conforms to the contour of pipe. Construct a steel cutting edge around the forward end of pipe that will transmit pressures uniformly around the ring of the pipe. Continue jacking without interruption to prevent pipe from becoming firmly set in the embankment. Do not allow pipe to vary horizontally or vertically by more than 1/4 inch per 10 feet from established line and grade. Any variation shall be regular; no abrupt changes in direction will be permitted. Remove and replace any pipe damaged or misaligned in jacking operations at no direct pay.

728.03.2 Boring : Bore mechanically, using a pilot hole

approximately 2 inches in diameter. Extend the pilot hole through the embankment and check for line and grade before boring begins. Maintain the same line and grade variations as specified for jacking. Use the pilot hole as the centerline of the larger diameter hole to be bored. Use water and other fluids with boring operations only to lubricate cuttings. Jetting will not be permitted. In unconsolidated soil formations, a gel-forming colloidal drilling fluid consisting of at least 10 percent high-grade bentonite may be used to consolidate cuttings of the bit, seal walls, and provide support of the hole, and furnish lubrication for subsequent removal of cuttings and installation of pipe. Remedy overcutting in excess of 1 inch by pressure grouting the entire length of the installation. Join pipe in accordance with Section 701 .

728.04 MEASUREMENT. Quantities of jacked or bored pipe for

payment will be the design lengt hs in linear feet as shown on the plans. Design quantities will be adjusted if the engineer makes changes to adjust to field conditions, if plan errors are proven, or if design changes are made. the pipe in the proper direction at correct grade. Provide suitable cushioning material, such as plywood, between sections of concrete pipe. Excavate material ahead of the pipe and remove through the pipe. Do not extend excavation more than 24 inches beyond the forward end of pipe. When the character of embankment material dictates, reduce the excavation distance to prevent the embankment from being damaged. Dispose of excavated material in accordance with 202.02 . When excavating on the underside of pipe, conform to the contour and grade of the pipe for at least one -third the circumference of pipe. Provide a clearance of not more than 2 inches for the upper half of pipe, tapered to zero at the point where excavation conforms to the contour of pipe.
