thoroughly bu:rned and vitrified, salt glazed, free from lumps
or other imperfections, and shall give a clear ringing sound
when struck lightly with a ha.mmer, and with the least possible
varia.tion from the specified dimensims or true cylindrical
shape. All pipe must be stra.ight in the direction of the axis
of the cylinder, and the inner and outer surfa.ces of e?ch pipe
must be concentric. The standerd tnickness of the six (6) inch
pipe shall be five-eighths (5/B) of' an inch; and of eight (B)
inch pipe three-fourths (~';4) of an inch, witn a. limit of va~'ia-
tion not exceeding one-eighth (l/B) of an inch either way, all
to be made 1,~;i th the ends lying 1.n a-ila.i.18 surf ,:we: :::11)]['))11'.;.1 to and
at right angles with the axis of the pipe.
Pipes having fire-checks of any kind extending through
the pipe and. longer than the depth of the socket shall not be
used. No pipe sh2~11 be used w ich hps a piece spalled from the
end longer than the socket. Pipes with shorter spoIls me.y be
used if the spalled portion is placed uppermost. All pipe must
be of uniform thickness. The curve ;:md "y" connections must
conform to all of the foregoing requirements as to quality, form
[tl1d wo:rkmanship. The pipe ShB.l1 be subject to inspection by
the SOclrd of Local I!:lprovements of the municipality in which sa.id
imp:rovement is to be constructed, for approval or rejection.
Only the best quality No.1 grade tl1.e socket pipe shall be used.
EfWh pipe shall be laid true to grade with a minimum
uniform rise of one-fourth (1/4) inch ?er foot fros the sewer
toward the lot line. EactJ. pipe shall be leid true to grade on
a.n even firm bed, ()nd so that it will not bear on the sockets.
The socket end of the pipe Ghall be J.a,id up gra.de. The f ace of
the spigot shall be brought into contact with the shoulder of
the socket. The spigot end. Shall be supported with sufficient
mortar and oakum to align the inside bottoms of the two pipes.
The joints shall then be co::np1etely closed with Dortar, ;:md ea.ch
joint must be tharroughly wiped out before l~ying anotner length
of pipe.
A one-eighth (1/8) elbow pipe shall be used for the first
length adjacent to the "yll.
Where the elevation of the lateral sewer permits, the
house connection sewer shall be laid such that its terminal
shall be not less than eight (8) feet below the grade of the
street in residential districts end not less than ten (10) feet
for business streets.
The mortar used i~1 the joints of the tile pipe shall be
composed of one (1) part of Portland cement and two (2) parts
of fine aggregate.
The terminal end Of each house connection sewer shall be
closed with a vitrified tile round disc one (1) inch in thick-
ness and of the width of the exterior diameter of the pipe to
be closed. The stoppers shall be set in the bells of the
terminal pipes and shall be sealed into place with mortar of
the kind and quality hereinbefore specified for joints in tile
pipe.
Where a lot abuts on two of said streets ;)nly one house
connection sewer shall be built opposite said lot and shall be
placed opposite the short dimension of SBid lot. Connections
with said existing public sewers sha~_be made through existing
lIy" branches or "Tit branches.
All fine aggregate or sand here in provided to be used
shall consist of quartz part ic1es or other equally hard meteria1s
graded from fi ne to coarse with the coarse particles predominat-
lng. Said fine ci.ggrega,te when dr ied shall pass a screen having
four (4) meshes per lineal inch. Not more than twenty-five (25)
per cent shall pass a sieve having fifty (50) meshes per lineal
inch, and not more than five (5) per cent shall pass a sieve
having one hundred (100) meshes per lineal inch. Said fine aggre-
gate shall contain no vegetable or other deleterious matter or
more than three (3) per cent by weight of clay or loam.
The cement used in the construction of this improvement
shall be of the best quality of Portland cement resulting
from the calcination to incipient fusion of an intima.te mixture
of properly proportioned argillaceous and calcareous materials
a.nd to wnich no a.dditions greater than three (3) per cent has
been made subsequent to calcination. The resultant clinker
shall be so ground as to produce a cement so fine that at least
seventy-eight (78) per cent of the volume will pass thru a
sieve having 40,000 meshes to the square inch and be so seasoned
as t09roduce an initial set in not less than forty-five (45)
minutes.
The trenches for sewer shall be excavated in each direc-
tion as required and to the depth necessary to secure the proper
grades. The trenches must be wide enough to allow the construc-
tion of the sewer in the manner and of the size specified. If
the sides of the trench will not maintain their vertical position
they shall be sheeted, shored and braced strongly. Sheeting 8.nd
bracing, if used, shall be re;noved as tne 11!,rork progresses in
such manner 8S to prevent ceving in of the sides of the excava-
tion or any damage to the pipe. The material excavated shall
be placed on the side of the trenches beyond the reach of slides,
and after said sewer hes been constructed or laid, said trenches
shall be completely filled and leveled off so as to leave the
roadway in as good condition for travel as it VJas before the
commencement of the building of said sewer.
All earth removed in excavating for said house connec-
tion sewers shall be returned to the trenches from which it was
tc"ken and shall be replaced in layers not exceeding four (4)
inches in depth. Each layer shall be thoroughly compacted by
raraming as above specified.
When completed, the surface of the backfilling in the
trenches shall not be higher than the general surface of the
ground on either side of same, a,nd the roadways of all streets
shall be left in as good condition for travel as they were before
the commenc emen t of the wo rk.
