J&N PILE, DECK & MISC. REPAIRS W912PM18B0013
the surrounding concrete surfaces shall be sound tested by the contractor to determine the actual dimensions of the deteriorated concrete to be removed. Each new jacket should encompass the entire problem area within the specified jacket limits. The COR may add or delete piling repair and protection as necessary. Remove all delaminated, cracked or unsound concrete from the areas, which are hollow sounding when tested. Areas with visible cracks (up to 1/8 inch wide) may not need to be removed.
3.2.2.2 Surface Preparation
Surface preparation for piles shall include the removal of all loose or delaminated concrete, to provide a minimum of 1 inch clearance between exposed steel and the surrounding concrete in the damaged area. All reinforcing steel shall be maintained at original position and all exposed steel shall be sandblasted or hydro-blasted clean to a gray metal condition prior to concrete placement. No traces of rust, mill scale, epoxy or other contaminants shall be present after cleaning. Special attention shall be observed to ensure proper preparation of the backside of the reinforcing steel. Additionally the Contractor is responsible for removing all residue or marine growth in the areas where the bulk anode will be installed.
3.2.2.3 Concrete Removal
Spalled concrete removal and clean up under this type of work is considered incidental to the cathodic protection jacket installation. Care shall be exercised as to contain falling debris from entering into the water.
Debris includes but is not limited to scrap metal, demolition debris, concrete and concrete dust, zinc, etc. A containment plan shall be supplied by the Contractor for approval by the Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative prior to commencing any work.
3.2.3 Zinc Anode
3.2.3.1 Installation
Zinc anode shall be attached per the manufacturer's installation instructions and be certified against ASTM B69 test procedure.
3.2.3.2 Connection Wires
The expanded anode shall be provided with a connection wire which shall extend a minimum of 9 inches above the top of the jacket to perform the connection to the reinforcing steel inside the terminal box as shown in the plans.
AMENDMENT 0001
3.2.4 Forms
The forms shall be composed of a durable, inert corrosion resistant material with an interlocking joint along two opposite sides that will permit the form to be assembled and sealed in place around the pile. All joints need to be sealed for a grout-tight seal prior to placing any of the fill material. Forms shall be fabricated from fiberglass and polyester resins. The form dimensions shown in the plans are minimum dimensions permitted. The minimum thickness for standard grout filled jackets is 1/8 inch and for structural forms 3/16 inch. Upon placing the forms around the pile, they should be grout-tight and capable of maintaining their shape without assistance or damage. Jacket stand-offs may require field fabrication after removal of unsound concrete to assure proper alignment of
SECTION 03 01 30.71 Page 12
J&N PILE, DECK & MISC. REPAIRS W912PM18B0013
the jacket during fill material placement.
The inside-face of the jacket forms shall have no bond inhibiting agents in contact with the cement grout or anode. The forms shall be provided with nonmetallic bolt stand-offs which will maintain the forms in the required position. The forms shall be properly sealed in the field to provide a positive seal of the annular space between the pile and the form.
AMENDMENT 0001
3.2.5 Fill Material
3.2.5.1 Placement
Jackets measuring six feet or longer will require staged pumping ports.
Filling material shall not be dropped into the form from elevations greater than six feet. Filling material for jackets extending below water level shall be pumped from the bottom upward using the staged pumping ports. The pumping process shall continue after initial filling until no water is present at the highest discharge point of the jacket and a uniform grout consistency is achieved.
3.2.5.2 Curing
After the filling material has cured for a minimum 72 hours, all temporary form support and/or bracing shall be removed from the piles and the exterior of the forms shall be cleaned of any filling material which may have been deposited. The top of the jackets shall be sloped as shown in the construction drawings.
3.2.5.3 Access Hole
Following removal of the temporary bracing (stiff backs), a 1.5 inch diameter access hole shall be bored (no hammer drilling) through the integral pile jacket to the depth of the original pile concrete surface at an elevation of 12 inches above mean high tide. Location of the access holes shall be maintained constant on every pile. The inside surface of the access hole (except for the pile surface) shall be PVC or epoxy coated after the operation is completed.
3.2.6 Bulk Zinc Anode
3.2.6.1 Installation
The Contractor shall furnish and install a bulk zinc anode along with each cathodic protection integral pile jacket. The bulk anode shall be placed at an angle at the depth shown in the construction drawings. The contractor shall be responsible for any necessary information search and surveying work to determine the correct elevation on each pile. The bulk anode shall be a 50 lb, 99% pure zinc anode (hull type anode) with a steel strap core, conforming to ASTM B418 Type I. The steel strap shall be hot-dip galvanized with a minimum thickness of 0.05 inches. A hole shall be drilled at each end of the strap for mounting. Such hole shall be fabricated prior to galvanizing. Location and size of the holes are shown in the construction plans. The anode shall be clamped onto the pile using two, 2 inch galvanized steel channels with flange sides facing the concrete surface (as shown in the plans) using galvanized hardware.
