Company Name & Address Contact Person Number of Day/s Advance Notice Stage # ______ Work Duration Utility Company Name Work Description Restriction (Day/s) Stage Total _________________ THE FOLLOWING SUBSECTION IS ADDED: 105.11 CONSTRUCTION LAYOUT THE LAST SENTENCE OF THE FIRST PARAGRAPH IS CHANGED TO: Perform a site investigation within the Project Limits to locate existing ROW markers, property markers, survey control markers, and monuments. Before beginning construction operations, protect ROW markers, property markers, survey control markers, and monuments from disturbance and destruction. Notify the RE of the location of property markers and monuments that are in danger of being removed or disturbed and tie to fixed points or locate from established contract control. Do not remove or disturb existing ROW markers, property markers, survey control markers, and monuments until obtaining RE approval. Record and provide a report of the findings of the site investigation to the RE. Before removing a monument that is not owned by the Department, notify the agency to which the monument belongs of the need to remove the monument. Provide the RE with copies of correspondence with the agency, as well as the agency’s written requirements or guidelines for setting monuments. If a monument or marker is disturbed or removed without RE approval, the Contractor is responsible for reimbursing the Department for the cost to replace the monument. Perform layout for the construction of the Contract using the control points and data shown on the Plans. Perform layout under the direct supervision of a licensed land surveyor. Preserve control points throughout the duration of the Project. Reset control points that are damaged, lost, displaced, or removed. Before beginning construction operations, verify the vertical and horizontal controls provided in the Plans using, at a minimum, third-order, Class I accuracy procedural standards and equipment. Notify the RE in writing of discrepancies or errors and obtain resolution before proceeding with
ded in the Plans using, at a minimum, third-order, Class I accuracy procedural standards and equipment. Notify the RE in writing of discrepancies or errors and obtain resolution before proceeding with the work. Upon request, provide the RE with survey notes and calculations related to the field control verification. Before beginning construction operations, establish lines for ROW, easement, and other restrictions, such as boundaries for environmentally sensitive areas to define the limits of construction and temporary operations. Establish limits of tree protection and other vegetation to be preserved. Do not encroach on private property, except as allowed by easements. Document existing site conditions, including vegetation, in areas to be used for excavation, temporary construction, storage, parking, movement of equipment, field office, etc. which will have to be later restored to pre-existing conditions. Provide documentation, including photographs, to the RE. Provide the Utilities with the layout needed to install relocated utility facilities and coordinate the Work. Ensure that relocated facilities do not conflict with proposed construction, including High Voltage Proximity Act conflicts. Establish the exact location of the Work from the control points. Reference the Work to baselines that are established from the control points. Maintain baselines until Completion. Provide and maintain offset baseline stakes for roadways, ramps, jughandles, and turnarounds outside the limits of grading and construction. Set offset stakes at a maximum interval spacing of 50 feet. Where baselines have a radius of less than HELEN AVE., LAWRENCE AVE., FLORENCE PL., AND LOWELL AVE., IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT Page 14 of 76
475 feet, provide offset stakes at a maximum interval spacing of 25 feet. Identify and mark each stake to show the offset distance from the baseline and provide grade sheets to the RE showing the cut or fill to the finished profile lines with reference to the offset stakes. Provide grade sheets for construction of subbase that include calculations to establish the typical cross section from the profile grade stake. Provide adequate and accurate offset lines during construction that requires occupation of the baseline points by construction operations. Provide the RE with assistance as requested for verification of lines, grades, boundaries, dimensions, and elevations. Construct the Work to the dimensions and tolerances noted within the Contract. Except where otherwise noted, construct subbase, base courses, pavements, and structures to within 1/4 inch of the elevations, stations and offsets noted in the Contract. If work does not conform to the tolerances allowed, the Department may consider the work to not be in conformance with the work as specified in 105.03. For each bridge and sign structure within the Project Limits, provide the RE as-built measurements of the minimum vertical underclearance at each lane line, shoulder line, curb line, and edge of pavement line under a structure to the nearest hundredth of a foot. For each bridge structure, provide vertical underclearance measurements at each fascia beam and the portions of the structure that govern the minimum vertical underclearance. Provide minimum vertical underclearance measurements prior to the completion of each stage of construction. Notify the RE in writing of any discrepancies, errors, or deviations from plan dimensions and clearances prior to opening any bridge or structure or any portion thereof to traffic. Upon request, provide the RE with survey notes and calculations related to the alignment and horizontal and vertical control, and field notes to document the ROW, including easements and monument locations. Maintain survey notes in a bound field notebook in a professional manner. The Department will not make payment for survey, stakeout, and layout. The cost is to be distributed across the various items of work and to be included in extra work as may be added to the Contract. If the Department discovers survey errors, including errors that should have been detected during verification of
arious items of work and to be included in extra work as may be added to the Contract. If the Department discovers survey errors, including errors that should have been detected during verification of controls provided in the plans, the Department will deduct the costs of checking and correcting these errors from any money due to the Contractor.
