If water depths deeper than 12 feet are encountered, Awardee will be required to contact the City of Tampa Parks and Recreation Department’s representative to further coordinate prior to installation of piling(s). For these cases, the Awardee may use the long pile line-item option upon certifying that the piles were installed in accordance with the Work Plan and upon submission of the actual invoices.

The HDPE wrap shall be secured using 1-1/4” stainless ring-shank roofing nails every 2” along the seam. The wrap shall be installed before installing the piling into the water. The wrap should be installed so that it will be 1-foot above mean high water and to the bottom of pile so that it reaches below mudline when embedded.

The first band of tape will be installed 6” below the sign with a second band 8” below the bottom of the first band. Tape delaminating before final inspection will require replacement before final approval. For replacement of tape on an existing piling, all existing tape remnants must be removed with their staples or other attachments and disposed of properly. For concrete piles, tape shall be applied with a 3” minimum overlap using adhesive backing.

4.7. Sign Panels: All signs to be 0/.08” thick aluminum w/ Super Engineer Grade (Type II) prismatic sheeting.

Sign panels installed on bridge piles will be attached with adjustable stainless-steel straps – no drilling in bridge piles is permitted unless specified. Sign panels shall be installed no less than 12” above the mean high-water surface as specified. When sign panels are removed from concrete structures, including bridges, any recess caused by a bolt hole shall be repaired with a type F or type I epoxy-based mortar for use on vertical concrete surfaces applied in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
