Compensation for any item of work described in the task order documents, but not listed in the payment schedule shall be included in the price for the item of work to which it is made subsidiary.

The scope of this task order includes repairing the left descending bank of the Bennett's Fork diversion, just downstream of the concrete lined channel, at the Middlesboro Local Flood Protection Project in Middlesboro, KY. The work consists of clearing and grubbing vegetation on the existing bank, removing an existing gabion basket retaining wall, regrading the bank to a 2H:1V slope, and armoring the soil slope with an articulating concrete block revetment to protect against erosion. The concrete block revetment shall extend approximately 125 feet downstream of the concrete channel. A section of riprap shall be used as a transition media from the revetment to the natural bank of the channel. An existing gravity culvert which daylights just downstream of the concrete channel shall be repaired and integrated into the concrete block revetment system. The total length of the channel repair project is estimated to be 150 feet. No work is planned for the right descending bank.

2.1.1.2 Geotextile Fiber

Fibers used in the manufacturing of the geotextile shall consist of a long-chain synthetic polymer composed of at least 85 percent by weight of polyolefins, polyesters, or polyamides. Add stabilizers and/or inhibitors to the base polymer, if necessary to make the filaments resistant to deterioration caused by ultraviolet light and heat exposure. Reclaimed or recycled fibers or polymer shall not be added to the formulation.

Geotextile shall be formed into a network such that the filaments or yarns retain dimensional stability relative to each other, including the edges.

Finish the edges of the geotextile to prevent the outer fiber from pulling away from the geotextile.

2.1.2 Seams

Sew the seams of the geotextile with thread of a material meeting the chemical requirements given above for geotextile yarn or bond the seams by cementing or by heat. Attach the sheets of geotextile at the factory or another approved location, if necessary, to form sections not less than 10 feet wide. Test seams in accordance with method ASTM D4884. The strength of the seam shall be not less than 90 percent of the required grab tensile strength of the unaged geotextile in any principal direction.

2.1.3 Securing Pins

Use of securing pins shall be minimized. Secure the geotextile to the embankment or foundation soil by pins to prevent movement prior to placement of stone materials. Other appropriate means to prevent movement such as sand bags or stone could also be used. Insert securing pins through both strips of overlapped geotextile along the line passing through midpoints of the overlap. Remove securing pins as stone and blocks are placed to prevent tearing of geotextile or enlarging holes. Anchor terminal ends of the geotextile with key trench or apron at crest, toe of the slope and upstream and downstream limits of installation if allowed.

PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 SURFACE PREPARATION

Prepare surface on which the geotextile will be placed to a relatively smooth surface condition, free from obstructions, debris, depressions, erosion features, or vegetation. Remove any irregularities so as to ensure

SECTION 31 05 22 Page 4 continuous, intimate contact of the geotextile with the entire surface.

Any loose, soft or low density pockets of material shall be removed.

Erosion features such as rills, gullies, etc. shall be graded out of the surface before geotextile placement.

3.2 INSTALLATION OF THE GEOTEXTILE

3.2.1 General

At the time of installation, the geotextile will be rejected, if it has defects, rips, holes, flaws, deterioration or damage incurred during manufacture, transportation or storage.

3.2.2 Placement

Place the geotextile with the long dimension perpendicular to the channel and free of tension or stress. Place the strips to provide a minimum width of 24 inches of overlap for each joint. Geotextile placement must be started from the bottom up with upper strips overlapping lower strips, and the upstream strips must overlap the downstream strips. The overlaps at the end of strips will be staggered at least 5 feet. The placement procedure requires that the length of the geotextile be approximately 10 percent greater than the slope length. Adjust the actual length of the geotextile used based on initial installation experience. Temporary pinning of the geotextile to help hold it in place until the blocks and riprap are placed will be allowed. Remove the temporary pins as the riprap is placed to relieve high tensile stress which may occur during placement of material on the geotextile. Perform trimming in such a manner that the geotextile is not damaged in any way.

3.3 PROTECTION

Protect the geotextile at all times during construction from contamination by surface runoff; remove any geotextile so contaminated and replace with uncontaminated geotextile. Replace any geotextile damaged during its installation or during placement of riprap at no cost to the Government.

Schedule the work so that the covering of the geotextile with a layer of the specified material is accomplished within 3 calendar days after placement of the geotextile. Failure to comply shall require replacement of geotextile. Protect the geotextile from damage prior to and during the placement of riprap or other materials. This may be accomplished by limiting the height of drop. Before placement of riprap or other materials, demonstrate that the placement technique will not cause damage to the geotextile. In no case shall any type of equipment be allowed on the unprotected geotextile.

3.4 OVERLAPPING AND SEAMING

3.4.1 Overlapping

The overlap of geotextile rolls shall be 24 inches.

3.4.2 Sewn Seams

High strength thread should be used so that seam test conforms to ASTM D4884.

The thread shall meet the chemical, ultraviolet, and physical requirements of the geotextile, and the color shall be different from that of the geotextile. The seam strength shall be equal to the strength required for the geotextile in the direction across the seam. Overlapping J-type seams

SECTION 31 05 22 Page 5 are preferable over prayer-type seams as the overlapping geotextile reduces the chance of openings to occur at the seam. Use double sewing, especially for field seams, to provide a safety factor against undetected missed stitches.
