1.2 SUMMARY

A. Section Includes:

1. Project information.

B. Project Summary – The project consists of the replacement of culvert pipes at (3) locations on

Haekel Road in Safford, AZ

First site: Slick Rock culvert bridge. Replacement of existing (5) pipes with (5) new 57” x 38” galvanized steel pipe-arch culverts. Existing culverts are approximately 50.5’ long. Culverts are gauge 12 steel. Culvert corrugations are 2-2/3” x ½” Roadway is 20’ wide. Bottom of wash to top of road is approximately 5’. Rip-Rap will be placed around culvert pipes on both ends and

4’ apron in front and grouted to prevent erosion. Cover for culverts will be a minimum of 12”.

4” asphalt road depth and flush with existing road width will be paved over the minimum 8” aggregate base. Lat/Long: 32.72518, -109.53176. Detour road will need to be placed around pipes to allow for traffic to flow around project site. Location of detour road will be determined with contractor and government officials. Cast in place cut-off walls. 4 feet deep on upstream side. 6 feet deep on downstream side. 6” base aggregate placed and compacted under cut off walls.

Second Site: (2) 24” Round x 40’ length pipes need replaced with (2) new 49” x 33” x 40’ galvanized steel pipe-arch culverts. Roadway is 20’ wide. Bottom of wash to top of road is approximately 4’. Rip-Rap will be placed around culvert pipes on both ends and 4’ apron in front and grouted to prevent erosion. Cover for culverts will be a minimum of 12”. 4” asphalt road depth and flush with existing road width will be paved over the minimum 8” aggregate base. Lat/Long: 32.53759, -109.45473.

Contractor is responsible for temporary minimum 7500 watt generator to power well.

Contractor is responsible for bringing temporary storage tank, and fill tower during project duration. Contractor is responsible for all water transportation. Construction well location: Lat:

32.705521, Long: -109.500344. Temporary construction fencing is required around construction well site during duration of project and needs to be taken down after completion of project.

Fencing is contractor’s responsibility.

Crack Seal joints of asphalt and existing chip seal. Permanent pavement markings matching existing lines are required.

Any damage to detour roads during construction phase will need to be addressed and repaired by contractor.

1.3 DEFINITIONS

A. Activity: A discrete part of a project that can be identified for planning, scheduling, monitoring, and controlling the construction Project. Activities included in a construction schedule consume time and resources.

1. Critical Activity: An activity on the critical path that must start and finish on the planned early start and finish times.

2. Predecessor Activity: An activity that precedes another activity in the network.

3. Successor Activity: An activity that follows another activity in the network.

B. Cost Loading: The allocation of the schedule of values for completing an activity as scheduled.

The sum of costs for all activities must equal the total Contract Sum.

C. CPM: Critical path method, which is a method of planning and scheduling a construction project where activities are arranged based on activity relationships. Network calculations determine when activities can be performed and the critical path of Project.

D. Critical Path: The longest connected chain of interdependent activities through the network schedule that establishes the minimum overall Project duration and contains no float.

E. Event: The starting or ending point of an activity.

F. Float: The measure of leeway in starting and completing an activity.

DOCUMENTATION 013200 - 2

1. Float time is not for the exclusive use or benefit of either Government or Contractor, but is a jointly owned, expiring Project resource available to both parties as needed to meet schedule milestones and Contract completion date.
