be omitted in the backfill above the "Pipe Zone", after
filling to the top of trench, the backfill shall be rolled
with the wheels of a truck loaded to five tons or with other
equivalent equipment.
B-1.23. Tamping Method; When the tamping method is used, properly
moistened fill material? in uniform layers not exceeding six inches
(6") in maximum thickness shall be tamped until compacted to a
density equal to that of the adjacent original material or to
a relative density of 90%, as determined by the *».S.TtM,Standard
Method of Test D 698-42T, whichever is the lesser.
3-1.24. Water Settling Method; Men the water settling method is
usedj the trench shall be backfilled in uniform layers not exceeding
eighteen inches (18") in thickness. Each layer shall be diked across
at suitable intervals and the trench between the dikes shall be kept
Earthwork Std. - 3

C. Installation
C-l. Excavation and Backfill; Excavation and backfill shall conform to
the Standard Specifications for Earthwork.
C-2. Installation Procedures and Vforkmanship; Prior to laying the pipe,
the bottom of the trench shall be graded and prepared to provide a firm
and uniform bearing throughout the entire length of each joint of pipe.
Bell holes of ample dimension shall be dug in the bottom of the trench
at the location of each joint to facilitate the joining. The trench shall
have a flat or semi-circular bottom conforming to the grade to which the
pipe is to be laid. Pipe shall not be laid on earth mounds.
When the pipe is being laid, the ends of the pipe shall be thoroughly
cleaned and the gasket placed in the groove on the spigot ring and the
spigot end of the pipe shall then be entered into the bell of the adjoining
pipe and forced into position. The gasket and the inside surface of the
