Procurement and Contracts Division Page | 10

5. Equipment

For concrete repair, a skid-steer Bob Cat type machine with forks and bucket is preferred with the support of a full-size dump truck. A ready-mix concrete delivery truck will be necessary for pours.

C. Execution

1. Concrete Repair/Construction (driveways, sidewalks, curbs, etc.)

a. Most concrete sidewalk repair jobs will involve multiple locations of approximately 2 to 3 sections of sidewalk to be removed, formed and re-poured.

Occasionally, driveway aprons will be involved with the sidewalk repair.

b. All concrete used shall be at least the same quality used in the existing case (i.e. the existing sidewalk, curb, driveway apron, etc) and re-poured using 3,000-psi concrete. All concrete must be plant batch mixed and no on-site bag mixed concrete will be allowed.

c. Where jobsites and plans call for steel reinforcement to be placed in the sidewalk, retaining walls, etc., such reinforcement shall conform to the requirements of the latest edition of the City’s Engineering Standards Manual (ESM) at the time of bid and the latest edition of the ADA Standards for Accessible Design at the time of bid.

d. Forms used for this work shall be made of either wood, or metal, and shall have a depth equal to the depth of the concrete being deposited. Forms shall be straight, clean, free from warp or bends and of sufficient strength.

e. Foundation: If the work area under the concrete has been cut, it shall be filled to the correct depth first and shall be compacted to a minimum of 95% density.

f. Expansion Joints: If expansion joints were part of the existing condition, (e.g between the sidewalk and the curb, driveway, or at fixed objects), then these locations shall be formed with a pre-formed joint filler and shall be ½ inch joints.

g. Contraction Joints: If contraction joints were a part of the existing condition, then these locations shall be replaced to the existing condition type – e.g. “open type” or “sawed”. Joints shall be at least 1-1/2 inch deep.

h. Placement: Place concrete using methods which prevent segregation of mix and ensure that segregation of mix does not occur along the face of forms. Use only square-faced shovels for hand spreading and consolidation. Deposit and spread concrete in a continuous operation between joints. Mixing and placement of concrete shall be in accordance with the latest edition of the City’s Engineering Standards Manual (ESM) at the time of bid and the latest edition of the ADA Standards for Accessible Design at the time of bid.

Procurement and Contracts Division Page | 11

i. Finishing: Smooth the surface by spreading and floating. Use hand methods only.

Test surface for trueness. Re-distribute concrete if required, to remove surface irregularities and to provide a smooth, continuous surface. Work all edges of walks and slabs with a 1/8" edging tool. Fiber broom finish perpendicular to the edge of the walk. Do not remove forms for 24 hours after the concrete placement. After removal of forms, clean ends of joints and remove and replace areas of concrete with major defects. Backfill all exposed sides of finished work with soil.

j. Curing: Protect and prevent damage to concrete while finished concrete is curing.

Placement of curing compound may be allowed if approved by the City’s Project Manager. Place curing compound as soon as the concrete has hardened sufficiently to permit application of curing material without marring the surface. Replace immediately any curing material removed or damaged during the curing process.

k. Curbs: The surface of the roadway pavement at the locations where the curb is constructed shall be roughened sufficiently to provide suitable bonding of the pavement and the curb. The curb shall be laid by an appropriate method (manual or machine) that will provide the required cross-section. Curbs shall be completed in a manner so as not to disrupt the flow of stormwater.

l. Tree root pruning and grubbing is required with a majority of the concrete repairs.

ALL TREE ROOTS MUST BE CLEANLY CUT (no ax cuts) while accomplishing this task. The raw use of a skid loader or backhoe to grub tree roots will not be allowed. Close coordination between the City and Contractor must take place with tree root pruning. Any tree root pruning and grubbing shall be considered incidental and included in each individual bid line item. Any tree roots larger than 4 inches in diameter shall be brought to the attention of the Project Manager.

2. Soil Replacement

Contractor is responsible to restore the work area with clean backfill and all areas are to be leveled and graded.

3. Re-Sodding

At most task locations, re-sodding will become necessary as part of repair and construction work. The contractor is required to replace the same type and quality of sod that existed before. Occasionally, some landscaping work may be required. Landscaping must be restored to original or better conditions and to the satisfaction of the City Project Manager.

New sod shall match existing undisturbed sod (Bahia or St. Augustine).

4. Pipe Repair

Contactor will be responsible for all irrigation and water line repairs damaged during the course of work. If repairs are made, the contractor must turn on the irrigation system to ensure it is working properly. This will require coordination with the property owner.

5. Asphalt and Brick Street Repair

Contractor will be responsible for any asphalt and brick street repairs that are disturbed during the course of work.

Procurement and Contracts Division Page | 12

6. Clean-up

Without exception, Contractor MUST police and remove all construction material, excess wet concrete, concrete pieces and slabs, trash and debris from job site daily and legally dispose of them off the property.

7. Curb Ramps

The curb ramps will include an ADA compliant detectable warning surface tile that as a minimum, meets the specifications of Armor-Tile.

The Contractor shall submit in the price of the bid item the cost of the surface treatment that meets the minimum square footage as required by ADA Standards. In no case will the minimum square footage of tile coverage be less than 8 square feet.

8. Retaining Walls

Six inch (6”) wide retaining walls shall be constructed to the City of Orlando retaining wall details. Any new construction or replacement of retaining walls over one

(1) foot in height must include rebar in accordance with the latest edition of the City’s Engineering Standards Manual (ESM) at the time of bid and the latest edition of the ADA Standards for Accessible Design at the time of bid.

9. Safety and Protection

The Contractor shall be solely and completely responsible for initiating, maintaining, and supervising all safety precautions and programs in connection with the work. The Contractor shall provide the necessary protection to prevent damage, injury, or loss to all employees on the work site and other persons including, but not limited to, the general public who may be affected thereby. The Contractor will check for any existing utilities in the work area in accordance with Sunshine State One Call of Florida underground locator service and will be responsible for the damage to such utilities, including sprinkler systems.

10. Sidewalk Replacement Location Documentation

The Contractor shall collect data using a GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) mapping grade device capable of sub-meter accuracy in varying site conditions. Workers should be properly trained to reach those accuracy capabilities whenever the conditions are possible, for every sidewalk panel that is replaced. The collection devices must be capable of collecting multiple fields of attribute data for each point including but not limited to:

street name, address, machine used, project phase, linear feet of the sidewalk replaced, date and time collected. The device should be capable of delivering this data via an ESRI Geodatabase and will be delivered during the invoicing of each project via email or potentially in the future through a program such as Collector for ArcGIS. After the Contractor submits the report, City staff will verify and document the reported work.

Invoice backup should also incorporate an Excel spreadsheet with the same information as above.

PART THREE - EROSION AND SEDIMENTATION CONTROL

Procurement and Contracts Division Page | 13

Any disturbed area over one acre in size must have a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) prepared and submitted to the City. It is not anticipated that any issued Work Order will be of the size that will require a full submittal of a SPPP. Therefore, during construction operations, the following control measures shall be used to prevent erosion and sedimentation and comply with the City’s MS4 permit requirements:

1. Clearing and grubbing operations are to be controlled so as to minimize unprotected erodible areas exposed to the weather. Areas outside the limits of construction shall not be disturbed.

2. Excavated material shall not be deposited in locations where it could be washed away by high water or stormwater runoff, and stockpiles shall be covered or encircled with sediment containment devices.

3. New and existing structures shall be protected from siltation during construction.

B. Maintenance

1. The Contractor shall be responsible for maintaining all pollution prevention controls. Daily inspection shall be made by the Contractor to determine the effectiveness of erosion, sedimentation, turbidity, and pollution control measures. Remedial action shall be performed immediately.

2. The following identifies maintenance guidelines for the controls used on this project although, as inspections are conducted, earlier replacement may be necessary as instructed by City staff.

a. Silt fence shall be maintained in accordance with the latest edition of the City’s

Engineering Standards Manual (ESM) at the time of bid.

b. Turbidity barrier maintenance shall include removal of floating debris.

C. Contractor’s Responsibility

1. Erosion and sediment control measures are to be placed prior to, or as the first step in construction. Sediment control devices shall be employed as a perimeter defense against any transportation of silt off the site.

2. Stabilization measures shall be initiated for erosion and sediment control on disturbed area as soon as practicable in portions of the site where construction activities have temporarily or permanently ceased, but in no case more than seven (7) days after construction activity in that portion of the site has temporarily or permanently ceased.

3. Permanent soil erosion control measures for all slopes, channels, ditches or any disturbed land areas shall be completed immediately after final grading. When it is not possible to permanently protect a disturbed area immediately after grading operation, temporary

Procurement and Contracts Division Page | 14 erosion control measures shall be installed. All temporary protection shall be maintained until permanent measures are in place and established.

4.
