530.3Construction

(1)Construct as specified in 520.3 for pipe culverts.

530.4Measurement

(1)The department will measure the Culvert Pipe items under this section acceptably completed as

specified for pipe in 520.4 .

530.5Payment

(1)The department will pay for measured quantities at the contrac t unit price under the following bid

items: ITEM NUMBER DESCRIPTION UNIT

530.0100 - 0299 Culvert Pipe Corrugated Polyethylene (size) LF

530.1100 - 1299 Culvert Pipe Corru gated Polypropylene (size) LF

(2)The department will pay for the wo rk under this section as spe cified in 520.5 as follows:

- Pipe bid items. - Cast-in-place concrete and alte rnate endwall installations. - Water for compacti on and dust control. - Excavation and foundation ba ckfill at depths greater than 6 i nches below the culvert.

(3)The department pay separately fo r steel apron endwalls, sloped steel endwalls for cross drains, or

sloped steel apron endwalls under the appropriate 521 bid items; and for aluminum apron endwalls under the appropriate 525 bid items.

Effective with the December 2018 Letting 315 2019 Standard Spec ifications Section 550 Driven Piles

550.1Description

(1)This section describes providi ng steel piles, cast in place co ncrete piles, and preca st concrete piles;

providing test piles; driving piles; and determining required d riving resistance. This section also describes preboring or redriving.

550.2Materials

550.2.1 Steel Piles and Pile Shells

(1)Submit a certified report of tes t or analysis as specified in 506.3.21 at or before pile delivery unless the

engineer directs or allows other wise. Ensure that piles have ma rks tying them to a s pecific test report, or absent marks, certi fy that all material furnished is represented by a submitted test report. Provide marks or certifications for ea ch piece of a pile fabricated fro m multiple pieces.

(2)For HP sections, use ASTM A572 grade 50 steel unless the plans show otherwise. If the enginee r

allows, the contractor may subst itute steel pipe or steel oil field pipe for HP piles. Use pipe with an outside diameter of 7 3/4 inches or greater, a wall thickness o f 3/8 inch or greater, and a cross- sectional area that equals or exceeds 97 per cent of the area of the HP section replaced.

(3)For steel pipe sections and s teel pile shells for cast-in-plac e concrete piles, use ASTM A252 grade 2

steel or an engineer-approved alternate.

(4)For steel oil field pipe sections, use ASTM A252, Grade 3 steel with a maximum tensile strength of

85,000 psi. At or before delivery , certify the pipe’s chemical composition and ensure that its carbon equivalency (CE) does not exceed 0.50 calculated as follows: CE = C+(Mn+Si+Cr+Mo+V)/6+(Ni+Cu)/15

(5)Ensure that each individual oil field pipe delivered to the pr oject conforms to the bill of lading and is

marked to uniquely identify the load with a marking that is durable and legible. Use oil field pipe delivered in a magnetized condition for non-welded applications only. 550.2.2 Cast in Place Concrete Piles

(1)Furnish materials conforming to the following:

Steel pile shells ............................................. ............................................................................................ 550.2.1 Steel shell end plates ............................................................................................................................. 506.2.2.2

(2)The department will accept concrete by certification as specif ied for class III anci llary concrete in 716 .

(3)Ensure that steel pile shells have a minimum nominal wall thic kness of 0.219 inches unless the plans

or special provisions specify otherwise. Use seamless cylindrical tubes or cylindrical tubes with a straight or spiral welded seam. Revise 550.2.2(4) to require waterti ght welds for pile shell end plates.

(4)Ensure that shell end plates are 3/4 or more inches thick, and have an outside diam eter that does not

exceed the pile outside diameter by more than 3/4 inch unless the plans show otherwise. Also ensure that shell end plate welds are watertight . 550.2.3 Precast Concrete Piles

(1)Furnish materials for precast concrete piles as specified for I-type girders in 503.2 modified as follows:

1.Use air-entrained concrete fo r all piles unless the contrac t specifies otherwise.

2.Provide 28-day compressives trength of 6000 psi unless the contract specifies greater strength.

(2)Construct precast concrete piles conforming to 503.3.2 and 503.3.3 to plan dimensions within the

following tolerances: Cross-sectional dimensions .................................... ............................................................... ............. +/- 1/8 inch Chamfers, miters, bevels, and radii ........................... ............................................................... .......... +/- 1/8 inch Pre-stressing st eel location .................................. ............................................................... ................ +/- 1/8 inch Length ............................................................... ....... +/- 1/8 inch per 10 feet o f length, not to exceed +/- 1 /2 inch Variation from true planeal ong the long axis ........... +/- 1 /8 inch per 10 feet of length, not to exceed +/- 1/2 inch

(3)Transport, handle, and store to prevent damage. Do not deliver to the job site until the piles have

developed their full design strength. Support during transport at designated lifting or supporting points or provide additional support as t he fabricator recommends. Lif t at points the plans show using fabric or braided wire rope slings or other device that will not damag e the pile surface or corners. Store on supports positioned, at a minimum, at designated lifting or sup porting points.
