EXAMINATION AND PROJECT CONDITIONS Examine area and conditions under which basic electric materials are to be installed or methods are to be performed and notify Engineer in writing of conditions detrimental to proper completion of the work. Do not proceed with the work until unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected in a manner acceptable to Engineer. EXCAVATION AND BACKFILLING Slope sides of excavations to comply with local codes and ordinances. Shore and brace as required for stability of excavation. Shoring and Bracing: Establish requirements for trench shoring and bracing to comply with local codes and authorities. Maintain shoring and bracing in excavations regardless of time period excavations will be open. Remove shoring and bracing when no longer required. Where sheeting is allowed to remain, cut top of sheeting at an elevation of 30 inches below finished grade elevation. Install sediment and erosion control measures in accordance with local codes and ordinances. Dewatering: Prevent surface water and subsurface or ground water from flowing into excavations and from flooding project site and surrounding area. Do not allow water to accumulate in excavations. Remove water to prevent softening of bearing materials. Provide and maintain dewatering system components necessary to convey water away from excavations. Establish and maintain temporary drainage ditches and other diversions outside excavation limits to convey surface water to collecting or run-off areas. Do not use trench excavations as temporary drainage ditches. Material Storage: Stockpile satisfactory excavated materials where directed, until required for backfill or fill. Place, grade, and shape stockpiles for proper drainage. Locate and retain soil materials away from edge of excavations. Do not store within drip-line of trees indicated to remain. Remove and legally dispose of excess excavated materials and materials not acceptable for use as backfill or fill. Excavation for Underground Vaults and Electrical Structures: Conform to elevations and dimensions shown within a tolerance of plus or minus 0.10 foot; plus a sufficient distance to permit placing and removal of concrete formwork, installation of services, other construction, and for inspection. Excavate, by hand, areas within dip-line of large trees. Protect the root system from damage and dry-out. Maintain moist conditions for root system and cover exposed roots with burlap. Paint root cuts of 1 inch in diameter and larger with emulsified asphalt tree paint. Take care not to disturb bottom of excavation. Excavate by hand to final grade just before concrete reinforcement is place. Trenching: Excavate trenches for electrical installations as follows: Excavate trenches to the uniform width, sufficiently wide to provide ample working room and a minimum of 6 to 9 inches clearance on both sides of raceways and equipment.
260501-4 JUNE 2021 SISLER FIELD TENNIS COURTS COMMON ELECTRICAL MATERIALS AND METHODS GEORGE SISLER MEMORIAL PARK CITY OF NEW FRANKLIN SUMMIT COUNTY, OHIO
Excavate trenches to depth as required. Limit the length of open trench to that in which installations can be made and the trench backfilled within the same day. Where rock is encountered, carry excavation below required elevation and backfill with a layer of crushed stone or gravel to 6” below conduit. Cold Weather Protection: Protect excavation bottoms against freezing when atmospheric temperature is less than 35 deg F (1 deg C). Backfilling and Filling: Place soil materials in layers to required subgrade elevations for each area classification listed below, using materials specified in Part 2 of this Section. Under walks and pavements, use a course interlocking aggregate ODOT #6, 67, 68, 7, 78 or 8 equivalent. Under building slabs, use a course interlocking aggregate ODOT #6, 67, 68, 7, 78 or 8 or equivalent. Under conduit and equipment, use subbase materials where required over rock bearing surface and for correction of unauthorized excavation. For raceways less than 30 inches below surface of roadways, provide 4-inch thick concrete base slab support. After installation of raceways, provide a 4-inch thick concrete encasement (side and top) prior to backfilling and placement of roadway subbase. Other areas, use excavated or borrowed materials, free of large stones. Backfill excavations as promptly as work permits, but not until completion of the following: Inspection, testing, approval, and locations of underground utilities have been recorded. Removal of concrete formwork. Removal of shoring and bracing, and backfilling of voids. Removal of trash and debris. Placement and Compaction: Place backfill and fill materials in layers of not more than 8 inches in loose depth for material compacted by heavy equipment, and not more than 4 inches of loose depth for material compacted by hand operated tampers. Before compaction, moisten or aerate each layer as necessary to provide optimum moisture content. Compact each layer to required percentage of maximum dry density or relative dry density for each area classification specified below. Do not place backfill or fill material on surfaces that are muddy, frozen or contain frost or ice. Place backfill and fill materials evenly adjacent to structures, conduit and equipment to required elevations. Prevent displacement of raceways and equipment by carrying material uniformly around them to approximately same elevation in each lift. Compaction: Control soil compaction during construction, providing minimum percentage of density specified for each area classification indicated below. Percentage of Maximum Density Requirements: Compact soil to not less than the following percentages of maximum density for soils which exhibit a well-defined moisture-density
260501-5 JUNE 2021 SISLER FIELD TENNIS COURTS COMMON ELECTRICAL MATERIALS AND METHODS GEORGE SISLER MEMORIAL PARK CITY OF NEW FRANKLIN SUMMIT COUNTY, OHIO
relationship (cohesive soils), determined in accordance with ASTM D 1557 and not less than the following percentages of relative density, determined in accordance with ASTM D 2049, for soils which will not exhibit a well-defined moisture-density relationship (cohesionless soils). Areas Other Than Under Building or Pavement: Compact top 6 inches of subgrade and each layer of backfill or fill material to 85 percent maximum density for cohesive soils, and 90 percent relative density for cohesionless soils. Moisture Control: Where subgrade or layer of soil material must be moisture conditioned before compaction, uniformly apply water. Apply water in minimum quantity necessary to achieve required moisture content and to prevent water appearing on surface during, or subsequent to, compaction operations. Subsidence: Where subsidence occurs at electrical installation excavations during the period 12 months after Substantial Completion, remove surface treatment (i.e., pavement, lawn, or other finish), add backfill material, compact to specified conditions, and replace surface treatment. Restore appearance, quality and condition of surface or finish to match adjacent areas. DISPOSAL OF EXCESS AND WASTE EXCAVATION MATERIALS Removal from Owner’s Property: Remove excess excavated material, trash, debris and waste materials and dispose of it off Owner’s property. ERECTION OF METAL SUPPORTS AND ANCHORAGE Cut, fit, and place miscellaneous metal fabrications accurately in location, alignment, and elevation to support and anchor electrical materials and equipment. Field Welding: Comply with AWS "Structural Welding Code." INSTALLATION OF CONCRETE WORK Formwork: General: Design, construct and maintain formwork to support vertical and lateral loads including pressure of cast-in-place concrete. Construct formwork so that formed concrete will be of required size and shape and in required location. Construct with joints which will not leak cement paste. Form sides and bottoms of concrete work, except where clearly indicated to be cast directly in excavation or against other construction, or on grade or prepared subgrade. Design and construct forms for easy removal without damage to concrete and other work. Install chamfer strips at external corners of exposed concrete work. Construct forms to retain equipment anchor bolts in accurate locations during placement of reinforcing steel and concrete.

Patching General Concrete Work: Match concrete being patched. Deposit concrete continuously or in layers of thickness which will result in no concrete being placed on concrete which has hardened sufficiently to cause formation of seams or planes of weakness within section. If section cannot be placed continuously, provide construction joints. Deposit concrete as nearly as practicable in its final location, so as to avoid segregation due to rehandling or flowing. Consolidate placed concrete by mechanical vibrating equipment supplemented by hand- spading, rodding or tamping. Use equipment and procedures complying with recommended practices of ACI 309; eliminate voids in work. Bring horizontal surfaces to correct level with straightedge and strike off. Use bull floats or darbies to smooth surface, free of humps and hollows. Cold Weather Placement: Comply with ACI 306. Do not use frozen materials or materials containing ice and snow. Do not place concrete on frozen subgrade or on subgrade containing frozen materials. When air temperature has fallen or is expected to fall below 40 deg F (4.4 deg C), heat water and aggregates uniformly before mixing, as required to obtain concrete mixture temperature of not less than 50 deg F (10 deg C), and not more than 80 deg F (26.7 deg C), at time of placement. Protect concrete work from physical damage and reduced strength resulting from frost, freezing actions, or low temperatures. Finishing Horizontal Surfaces: Float and trowel horizontal (top) surfaces to level, smooth, uniform textured, dense finish, where surface is to remain exposed or receive coating, membrane or other thin-set finish. Otherwise, leave struck-off surface undisturbed; except scratch surfaces which are to receive concrete or mortar topping.

B. Place backfill and fill materials in layers not more than 8 inches in loose depth for material compacted by heavy compaction equipment, and not more than 4 inches in loose depth for material compacted by hand-operated tampers.
C. Before compaction, moisten or aerate each layer as necessary to provide optimum moisture content. Compact each layer to required percentage of maximum dry density or relative dry density for each area classification. Do not place backfill or fill material on surfaces that are muddy, frozen, or contain frost or ice.
D. Place backfill and fill materials evenly adjacent to structures, piping, or conduit to required elevations. Prevent wedging action of backfill against structures or displacement of piping or conduit by carrying material uniformly around structure, piping, or conduit to approximately same elevation in each lift.
E. Control soil and fill compaction, providing minimum percentage of density specified for each area classification indicated below. Correct improperly compacted areas or lifts as directed by Engineer if soil density tests indicate inadequate compaction.
1. Percentage of Maximum Density Requirements: Compact soil to not less than the following percentages of maximum density, in accordance with ASTM D698:

Under lawn or unpaved areas, compact the top 6 inches below subgrade and each layer or backfill or fill material at 95 percent maximum dry density.
2. Moisture Control: Where subgrade or layer of soil material must be moisture conditioned before compaction, uniformly apply water to surface of subgrade or layer of soil material. Apply water in minimum quantity as necessary to prevent free water from appearing on surface during or subsequent to compaction operations.
a. Remove and replace, or scarify and air dry, soil material that is too wet to permit compaction to specified density. b. Stockpile or spread soil material that has been removed because it is too wet to permit compaction. Assist drying by discing, harrowing, or pulverizing until moisture content is reduced to a satisfactory value.
312000 - 7 JUNE 2021 SISLER FIELD TENNIS COURTS EARTHWORK GEORGE SISLER MEMORIAL PARK CITY OF NEW FRANKLIN SUMMIT COUNTY, OHIO
3. If on-site soils are used for fill, close moisture content control will be required to achieve the required degree of compaction. Discing and aerating of the soils during a warm, dry period may be necessary to lower the moisture content. If fill placement must proceed during a wet or cool time of the year, it may be necessary to use imported fill material such as ODOT No. 304 or 411 crush aggregate.
3.13 GRADING
A. Uniformly grade areas within limits of grading under this section, including adjacent transition areas. Smooth finished surface within specified tolerances, compact with uniform levels or slopes between points where elevations are indicated or between such points and existing grades.
