SECTION 609 — BEAM GUIDE RAIL 609.01 DESCRIPTION This Section describes the requirements for installing, resetting, or removing beam guide rail. 609.02 MATERIALS Provide materials as specified: Concrete... Reinforcement Steel Adhesive Anchor System 908.01.04 Flexible Delineators.. - 911.03 Rail Element... 913.01.01 End Treatment 913,01.02 Posts... .913,01.03 Blockouts -913.01.03 Rub Rail .. .913.01.04 Miscellaneous Hardware 913.01.05 609.03 CONSTRUCTION 609.03.01 Beam Guide Rail Install beam guide rail, single or dual faced, so that no unprotected end is exposed to approaching traffic. Within the same working day, replace all existing beam guide rail or cable guide rail that is removed. Where possible, install new beam guide rail exposed to approaching traffic before the removal of the existing system. Before driving or mounting the posts, determine the location of utilities that may conflict with the posts. The Contractor may adjust post spacing by 6 inches, as approved, to eliminate such conflicts. After completing the wiring for each electrical system and before making connections, perform the following tests on each circuit using suitable equipment in the presence of the RE: 1. Tests for continuity. 2. Tests for ground. 3. Tests for insulation resistance between circuit wires and from circuit wires to ground. Verify that the insulation resistance is at least 150 megaohms between conductors, or between conductor and ground for circuits with a total single conductor length of 1,500 feet or more, and at least 175 megaohms for circuits with a total single conductor length of less than 1,500 feet. The RE may require additional tests if it is suspected that conduit have been damaged. Locate and repair damage to the electrical conduit due to construction operations. Drive beam guide rail posts to the required position. Ensure that posts are driven plumb, properly spaced, and to the line and grade shown. Attach the beam guide rail element to the blockout at every post. Align the top edge of the beam guide rail element in a straight line or smooth curve, parallel to, or concentric with, the traveled way. Where a vertical transition is required, ensure that the top edge of the beam guide rail element forms the chords of a smooth vertical curve. If adjustments to the rail element are necessary, obtain RE approval before punching, drilling, or reaming
that the top edge of the beam guide rail element forms the chords of a smooth vertical curve. If adjustments to the rail element are necessary, obtain RE approval before punching, drilling, or reaming of the rail element. Do not cut or weld the rail element. Install flexible delineators with white retroreflective sheeting on the right side of the direction of traffic. Install flexible delineators with yellow retroreflective sheeting on the left side of the direction of traffic. Mount flexible delineators on the blackout of beam guide rail using either a “U" channel base on the I-beam blockout or a flat base attached to a wood timber or synthetic routed blockout. Attach the base to the I-beam, wood timber blockout, or synthetic routed 39
blockout using an adhesive recommended by the manufacturer of the base and panel. In addition to adhesive, mount flat base to a wood timber or synthetic routed blockout with two #10 x 3/4 inch long sheet metal screws. Mount the first delineator on the beam guide rail end treatment so that the plane face of the center of the reflective area is at an angle of 0 degrees with a line that is perpendicular to the direction of traffic. Mount subsequent delineators every 81 1/4 feet (13 sections of guide rail) along tangent mainline roadway, or every 43 3/4 feet (7 sections of guide rail) along curved mainline roadway with a radius of less than 1,910 feet. If a parabolic flare in the beam guide rail exists, place the second delineator at the end of the flared section with subsequent delineators spaced as stated above. If the distance between the last delineator and the end of the beam guide rail is greater than 40 feet on tangent mainline roadways, or 20 feet on curved mainline roadways, mount a delineator on the last post or end treatment. Repair damage to the galvanized coating according to ASTM A 780. 303 609.03.03 Terminals and Anchorages At least 10 days before beginning the work, submit the manufacturer's recommendations the RE. Install terminals and anchorages according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Excavate for post holes as specified in 202.03.03. Backfill and compact using the directed method as specified in 203,03.02.B.3. Excavate cut slope as specified in 202.03.03 within the limits of the buried guide rail terminal. Drive beam guide rail posts for buried guide rail terminal to the required position. Ensure that posts are driven plumb, properly spaced, and to the line and grade shown. Attach the beam guide rail element to the spacer at every post. Attach the beam guide rail element and plate to the terminal posts. Align the top edge of the beam guide rail element in a straight line. Where a vertical transition is required, ensure that the top edge of the beam guide rail element forms the chords of a smooth vertical curve. Backfill with excavated material as specified in 203.03.02.B.3. 609.03.04 Beam Guide Rail Blockouts Where required, attach blockout on existing beam guide rail between the steel posts and rail elements. Where beam guide rail is attached to a structure, attach the blockout to the structure. Reset beam guide rail, as
attach blockout on existing beam guide rail between the steel posts and rail elements. Where beam guide rail is attached to a structure, attach the blockout to the structure. Reset beam guide rail, as specified in 609.03.05, to provide a smooth transition to the existing structure. 609.03.06 Removal of Bear: Guide Rail After removing beam guide rail, backfill the post holes and compact the area to the elevation of the adjacent surface. Dispose of beam guide rail as specified in 201.03.01.H. 609.03.08 Beam Guide Rail on Bridge A. Beam Guide Rail and Thrie Beam Guide Rail Attachment to Sidewalk Install beam guide rail consisting of steel double rail elements, steel blockouts, and steel posts welded to a base plate and mounted on bridge structure sidewalk, safety walk, or roadway sidewalk utilizing epoxy-grouted anchors approved by the Department. Install the required attachments as shown on the Plans. Core drill the holes in the bridge structure sidewalk for anchor bolts with a core drill bit. Ensure core drill bit sizes for anchor bolt holes conform to manufacture's recommendations. Space holes and locate to clear existing deck reinforcement, deck joints, conduits, and junction boxes. Fasten anchor bolts to the concrete according to the manufacturer's recommendations. 304 Ensure concrete and existing utility conduits are not damaged during the drilling for anchor bolts. Repair damage to the existing concrete caused by construction operations at no additional compensation. Furnish Certification as specified in 106.07 that the 7/8 inch diameter anchor bolt has a minimum pullout strength of 24 kips. 40
