SECTION 01 71 23 – FIELD ENGINEERING

1.01 SECTION INCLUDES: This section applies to all surveying

requirements for ATON structures as required in the specifications.

1.02 POSITIONING: The construction (demolition and

installation) of ATON structures requires that proper positioning techniques be used. Each ATON listed in the scope of work will have a particular positioning method assigned to it as per the list below. The contractor shall adhere to the following positioning methods:

A. VERTICAL POSITIONING: Height shall be taken from the lantern’s focal plane. If there are multiple lanterns, provide the focal plane height for each lantern. Lantern heights shall be referenced to both NAVD88 and Mean High Water (MHW).

B. HORIZONTAL POSITIONING: The position shall be taken from the center of lanterns with horizontal symmetry (like a 155mm, 250mm or 300mm lantern). For an RL14 range lantern the surveyed position shall be the horizontal position of the lifting eye on top of the lantern. For other directional lanterns the surveyor shall pick a spot along the horizontal centerline of the drum. The surveyor shall describe this spot in the survey report.

The surveyor shall also mark this spot on the lantern with a felt-tipped pen, take pictures of the mark, and include the pictures in the survey report.

C. SURVEYOR QUALIFICATIONS: The survey shall be conducted by a surveyor licensed by the State of Oregon.

D. MINIMUM SURVEY REQUIREMENTS: The surveyed position shall have a horizontal accuracy of better than 4 cm (1DRMS).

The surveyed position shall be reported in Lat/Long, State Plane Coordinates, and datum. The survey report shall thoroughly describe equipment and procedures used to obtain the position and shall include a complete error analysis that shows a positional accuracy of better than 4 cm at 1DRMS. The error analysis must not be a simple restatement of equipment specifications and shall include an analysis of the factors germane to the specific survey.

7337310 Page 26

E. The Coast Guard shall provide the following reference information for use by the surveyor during installation:

1) The distance and bearing to the sister range structure.

2) The design position (DP) of the range structure, in the geographically local State Plane Coordinates and current datum.

1.03 REFERENCES: The surveyor shall utilize all applicable

reference provided by the state of Oregon to conduct surveying. Additionally, the surveyor shall conduct surveying in accordance with US Coast Guard COMDTINST M16500.1D 7-4 and 7-5.

1.04 SUBMITTALS:

A. GEODETIC SURVEY REPORT: Label all submittals with the contract number assigned to the project by the KO. The report shall be typed on 8.5” x 11” paper. The control sketch shall be submitted on 11” x17” paper.

Submit to the KO one hard copy (bound) and one electronic copy (CD) containing:

1) COVER SHEET: Indicating the structures surveyed and the company that prepared the report. The following statement shall be included in the report and stamped with the surveyor’s seal and signature.

"This survey was conducted by me or under my direction and was performed in accordance with COMDTINST M16500.1D Positioning and Range Surveying Manual and the state of Oregon.”

2) The surveyed horizontal position of the lantern expressed in Latitude and Longitude (NAD83) and in State Plane Coordinates (SPC), with respect to both North American Datum of 1927 and 1983 (NAD 27 & 83).

3) The surveyed vertical position of the lantern in feet referenced to NAVD88 and Mean High Water.

4) A description of survey methodologies including:

(a) RTK or post-processed survey?

7337310 Page 27

(b) Identify the type of base station - or stations -used (i.e. CORS?, RTN?, own base station set up over monument?).

(c) Identify the specific base station(s) used.

(d) Identify the sampling rate and number of samples collected.

(e) Describe the procedures used to identify and remove bad data.

5) A description of computational methods and software.

6) An error analysis showing that the horizontal accuracy is 4 cm or better calculated at 1DRMS. The stated accuracy shall NOT be a restatement of equipment specifications or generic process accuracies. Rather, the stated accuracy shall be the product of an analysis of the data and of factors associated with this survey. Include:

(a) The results of the error analysis.

(b) Describe how the error analysis was conducted.

Identify software.

(c) If the survey used surveyor’s own equipment as a base station, provide accuracy information for the position of the base station, provide data supporting the claimed accuracy of the base station position, and show how the accuracy of the base station position factored into the calculation of the accuracy of the surveyed position of the lantern.

B. OPUS DATABASE SUBMITTAL: All surveys shall be submitted to NOAA for inclusion in the OPUS (Online Positioning User Service) Database http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/OPUS/view.jsp. Provide verification that the information has been uploaded when submitting the Geodetic Survey Paper copy to the Construction Manager, Contracting Officer and D13 (dpw)

7337310 Page 28

3.01 POINT TO BE SURVEYED: The portion of the ATON to be

surveyed shall be the focal plane height of the light (if a lighted aid) or the apex of the structure (if an unlighted aid).

3.02 TERRISTRIAL RANGE: For ranges built on land, the surveyor shall locate the target position and mark the position with a survey marker. The surveyor shall then mark the positions for the foundations that will support the tower.

3.03 AQUATIC STRUCTURES: For construction of an aquatic range a surveyor will guide the construction barge into position to drive the first pile. The first pile is a reference pile and is may be referred to as a “Hurricane Pile or Ice Pile”. If a storm destroys the range structure the hurricane pile will be used to position the new range structure. However, the position of the hurricane pile shall not be considered the As-Built Position (ABP) of the range structure.

3.04 ADJUSTMENTS DURING CONSTRUCTION: The design of a structure will often allow for positioning adjustments as a range structure is built. For example:

A. The surveyor guides the construction tender into position.

The hurricane pile is established.

B. The surveyor surveys the position of the hurricane pile after it is driven.

C. The range foundation is constructed around the hurricane pile.

D. After the foundation is built, the surveyor climbs the structure and locates the position of the desired rangeline as it crosses the structure. The tower is positioned on the foundation based on this survey.

E. After the tower is secured the surveyor climbs the tower and locates the position of the desired rangeline as it crosses the tower’s platform. The lantern stand is positioned on the platform based on this survey.

3.05 FINAL AS-BUILT SURVEY: After the lantern is installed the surveyor conducts the final as-built survey of the

7337310 Page 29 lantern’s position.

3.06 TOLERANCE:

A. DESIGN POSITION (DP) VS FINAL AS BUILT POSITION (ABP):

When building a new range structure the positioning process starts with a DP and ends with an ABP. There will always be a difference between DP and ABP.

B. HORIZONTAL TOLERANCE: The maximum allowable difference between DP and ABP will be provided in appendix A for applicable ATON structure.

C. VERTICAL TOLERANCE: The maximum allowable vertical difference between the DP and ABP is 1 foot.

D. Based on COR’s determination any pile not positioned in accordance with the delivery order and within the prescribed tolerances shall be extracted and redriven at the contractor’s expense.

3.07 TIME REQUIREMENT

A. Provide as-built survey data and results on the installed location of the new ATON structures to the KO within 30 working days after installation. The data and results shall be submitted as directed in paragraph 1.02B of this section.
