SPECIAL EXCAVATION: Prior to laying down the pavement thereon, the alleys herein specified to be paved shall be cleaned in a thorough and workmanlike manner of all debris and rubbish such as deteriorated pave- ments, crossings, box drains, culverts, trees, stumps, etc. Excavation shall be done in accordance with the requirements of Section 14 of the "Standard Specifications". Such portions of the excavated material as shall be selected by the Engineer shall be hauled by the Contractor, to, and dumped at, locations within the City of Evanston to be designated by the Engineer. PREPARATION OF SUBGRADE: The subgrade shall be constructed so as to have as nearly as•practicable, a uniform density throughout its en- tire width. Compression of the subgrade material shall be accomplished by successive operations of a self-propelled tandem roller, weighing not less than three (3) nor more than five (5) tons. Portions of the sub - grade inaccessible to the roller shall be wetted and tamped solidly with a hand tamp weighing not less than fifty (50) pounds and not to exceed one hundred (100) square inches in area. All soft, spongy or yielding spots and all vegetable or other such objectionable materials shall be entirely removed and the space refilled with sandy soil. Any depressions that appear during the rolling shall be filled with sandy soil and rolled until the whole shall be uniformly compact and firm. -2- 11-60 Rolling shall continue until the subgrade is uniformly compacted, brought to a true shape and to an elevation uniformly eight (S) inches below the established grade and cross sectional contour of the top of • the pavement. Where the soil in the alley consists of sand or sandy soil incapable of compaction by rolling or tamping, said compaction shall be accomplished by thoroughly flooding the subgrade. After being prepared in the above manner the subgrade shall be so maintained until the pavement has been placed thereon. CHECKING AND ACCEPTANCE: Immediately before the pavement is laid, the subgrade shall be checked by means of an approved template, shaped on the under side to conform to the lower surface of the finished pave- ment, or by a method of testing approved by the Board of Local Improve- ments. All high places shall be removed to true grade and any low places filled with sandy soil and rolled or hand tamped until smooth and firm. The subgrade shall be checked and completed in accordance with these re- quirements for a distance of not less than one hundred (100) feet in advance of the pavement. If hauling over the subgrade after it has been finished and checked as specified results in ruts or other such ob- jectionable irregularities, the contractor shall reroll or hand tamp the subgrade and place it in smooth and stisfactory condition before the pavement is deposited upon it. If the condition of the subgrade is such that it cannot be placed in satisfactory condition to receive the pavement, paving shall be stopped by the Engineer unless the contractor provides and hauls over suitable trackways or uses other means for the protection and maintenance of the subgrade. The cost of-subgrade prepara- tion and all excavation and replacement required by these specifications shall be included in the unit price bid for Special Excavation. SEWER CONNECTIONS: All existing connections to the present sewer shall be protected against damage during the construction of this proposed 0 improvement. Any connections damaged shall be repaired immediately by the Contractor at his own expense. TRENCH BACKFILL: This item shall consist of furnishing sand or stone screenings from beyond the limits of this improvement, placing it where directed by the Engineer and puddling same with water until settle- ment is complete. It shall be used for backfilling trenches, between new retaining walls and existing foundation walls, building foundations, water main excavations and any other cavity which may occur in the area of this improvement or where the inner edge of a trench is within two feet of the edge of this improvement.

The burlap shall be attached to a bridge riding on pavement forms and be kept saturated while in use. It shall be: laid on the pavement surface and dragged in the direction pavement is being laid, with approx- imately two (2) feet of width in contact with the pavement surface. The burlap drag shall be kept clean and free of hardened concrete. The Engineer may require changes in belting, burlapping and equipment to produce desired final surface texture. Payment for PORTLAND CEMENT CONCRETE PAVEMENT shall be based on pave- ment cross section with an eight (8) inch uniform thickness. Contract unit price for PORTLAND C DIENT CONCRETE PAVEMENT shall include payment for all material, labor and equipment necessary for the construction of this pavement. LONGITUDINAL CENTER JOINTS: The concrete pavement shall be built so as to have a longitudinal center joint. Said longitudinal joint shall extend along the center line of the pavement the entire length of the im- provement. The joint shall be made by installing a specially built metal strip which will separate the concrete. The said strip shall be made of No. 18 gauge sheet steel seven and one-half (71) inches in width, and shall be delivered on the work in ten (10) foot lengths. Said strip shall have a trapezoidal corrugation along the center thereof, two and one-half (21) inches in vertical dimension and one (1) inch in horizontal dimension. Adjoining strips shall butt each other tightly and be securely fastened by means of metal clips. Said strip shall extend vertically from the base of the concrete pavement to one-half (4) inch below the top of the finished surface of the pavement and shall be held securely in vertical position to straight alignment, by means of steel pins, left in place, driven vertically through holes punched through said strip and not to exceed two and one-half (21) feet centers. The pins used shall be three -eights (3/8) inch in dia- meter and not less than fifteen (15) inches in length. Deformed steel tie bars one-half (1) inch in diameter and two and one-half (21) feet in length shall be placed through the longitudinal joint in openings punched for that purpose, which openings shall be along the center line of said strip so spaced as not to exceed two and one-half (21) feet centers, Each bar shall be held rigidly in horizontal position during the plac�,ng of the concrete by the use of two (2) metal bar chairs driven into the subgrade. A template shall be used to install the strip vertically to straight alignment prior to the deposition of the concrete and the joints shall not be displaced during the finishing operation. Furnishing all material, labor and equipment for installing of said longitudinal joint and tie bars shall not be paid for directly, but shall be considered incidental to the construction of the Portland Cement Concrete Pavement. -4- 11-b0 • TRANSVEFSE EXPANSION JOINTS: Transverse expansion joints shall be placed throughout the entire improvement across the concrete pavement at right angles to the center thereof and at intervals of one hundred (100) feet measured along said center line. The expansion joints shall be made by placing and leaving in place prior to laying the concrete mixture for the pavement, a bituminous premoulded joint filler con- forming to the requirements of Article 129.4 or 129.5 of the 94Standard Specifications.00 Said joint filler shall be three fourths (3/4) inch in thickness and shall extend vertically from a point one (1) inch below the top of the subgrade to a point one half (1) inch below the finished grade of the pavement. The intervening space between the top of said joint filler and the finished grade of the pavement shall be filled with Asphalt P.A.F.-3- Load transfer across said expansion joints shall be accomplished by installation of three -fourths (3/4) inch round smooth steel bars eighteen (18) inches long at fifteen (15) inch centers through said joint filler, or by other load transfer device approved by the Engi- neer. One end of each of said steel bars shall be furnished with a metal or fibre cap to provide one (1) inch of expansion space. Said steel bars shall be maintained rigidly in proper alignment by approved means. All manhole frames and other fixed objects, with the exception of frames otherwise mentioned in those specifications, shall be separated from the concrete pavement by a joint filler of the same thickness and character as hereinbefore specified for expansion joints, which joint filler shall extend through the entire thickness of the pavement. Said joint filler shall be placed in such a manner as to form a square • whose sides will be fifteen (15) inches from the upper outside edges of the frames. Furnishing all labor, equipment, and materials for installation of said expansion joints. load transfer devices and reinforcing steel shall not be paid for directly, but will be considered incidental to the construction of the Portland Cement Concrete Pavement. CONTRACTION JOINTS: Sawed contraction joints or other type of contraction joints which may be approved by the Engineer, shall be placed throughout the entire improvement across the concrete pavement at right angles to the center thereof at intervals of twenty-five (25) feet between expansion joints and in accordance with the detail shown on plans. Furnishing all labor, equipment, and materials for the installa- tion of said contraction joints including dowel bar assembly shall not be paid for directly, but wil be considered incidental to the con- struction of the Portland Cement Concrete Pavement. -5- . 2-64 •► `S �3 MIXING AND PLACING CONCRETE: Concrete shall be mixed and placed in accordance with the requirements of Section 48 of the i4Standard Speci- fications", insofar as the same may apply. While being placed the con- crete shall be vigorously sliced and spaded to eliminate voids or honey- comb pockets. The concrete shall be especially well spaded and tamped against forms and bulkheads. The concrete shall be struck off, so that the upper surface shall conform to and be sufficiently higher than the contour herein specified for the upper surface of the finished pavement, to give the specified thickness of pavement herein required. The strike board shall be moved forward with a combined longitudinal and transverse motion, and so manipulated as to tamp the concrete thoroughly. A slight excess of material shall be kept in front of the cutting edge at all times. The entire area of the pavement shall be struck off and tamped, so executed as to insure maximum compaction. FINISHED CONCRETE: After the tamping has been completed, the pavement shall be rubbed smooth of all ridges and depressions and brought to a true and even surface by the use of wooden floats. A split float, shaped on the under side to conform to the contour of the pavement, shall be used for finishing the concrete on both sides of the longitudinal joints, here- inbefore specified. The edges adjoining the transverse expansion joint and the form, shall be tooled with an edging tool, having a radius of one - quarter (1) inch. After the floating has been completed, the surface of the pavement shall be tested with a notched straight edge, ten (10) feet in length. This straight edge shall be placed over the transverse joints and between the same at frequent intervals, parallel to the center line of the pavement and moved across from side to side. Any variation in excess of one -eighth (1/8) inch above or below the general established contour of the pavement • shall be rubbed with a long handled float and the irregularities corrected until the straight edge shall show a bearing for its entire length. Workmen shall not walk on freshly laid concrete and no one shall be allowed on the concrete after it has been worked into form and shape until it has entirely hardened. The entire surfacing of the concrete pavement shall be done from a bridge, not less than one (1) foot in width which shall not come in contact with the concrete pavement at any point. Two (2) of said bridges shall be provided for each concrete mixing gang. Two bridges shall be maintained in constant readiness to be immediately moved into position, to provide access for finishing, tooling and edging joints, adjusting filler and refinishing damaged portions of the finished surface. PROTECTION AND CURING: Protection and curing shall comply with the requirements of Section 48 of the 94Standard Specifications'. _6_ 11-60 STORM SEWERS For the purpose of carrying off storm waters from the surface of the pave- ment herein provided to be constructed, storm sewers of clay sewer pipe or con- crete sewer pipe shall be laid as hereinafter specified. Said sewers shall be laid in open trenches in the ground in such manner as to conform to the elevations, lines and grades hereinafter specified in accor- dance with the requirements of Section 66 of the ttStandard Specifications", and shall be designated as Storm Sewers Type-2.
