GUIDELINES F OR TRENCH EXCAVATION
AS SR yyIRED BY STD. DWG.
Men
1 A trench is defined as an excavation in which the depth is
greater than the width of the bottom of the excavation
All trench excavation and related work shall conform to
Subsection 306-1 of the current edition of the Standard
Specifications for Public Works Construction (Stan ar
Specifications) and as further specified below
a Maximum length of open trench shall be 200 feet or the
distance necessary to accommodate the amount of pipe
able to be installed in a single day, whichever is
greater
b Before excavating any trench five feet or mare in depth,
the contractor/permittee shall submit to the City a
detailed plan showing the design of shoring, bracing ,
sloping or other provisions to be made for the workers'
protection. This plan must comply with the requirements
of the State of California Construction Safety Orders,
Article 6, Section 1540 If this plan varies from
shoring system standards, it shall be prepared by a
registered civil engineer. The plan will be reviewed
by the City prior to the commencement of excavation by
the contractor/permittee
c Prior to commencing work on this project, the contractor/
permittee shall submit to the City for approval a plan
and schedule of construction which will allow the least
inconvenience to the public and/or residents Utility 1
trenches must be backfilled and compacted or covered
with steel plates so that all residents will have access
to their driveways prior to contractor/ permittee leav-
ing job site each day. All trenches deeper than 0.1
foot in roadway must be covered with steel plates or
fenced, as determined by the City, when left overnight
All plates shall be placed and secured against displace-
ment in conformance with the provisions of the 'work
Area Traffic Control Handbook' published by Building i
News, Inc , latest edition thereof.
2 Bedding material which supports the conduit shall extend a
minimum of 1.0 foot above the conduit after densification
3 Prior to backfilling of the trench by the contractor/ ?'
permittee, the proposed backfill material must be approved
by the City When requested the contractor/permittee shall
provide the City with a certificate of compliance from a
soils testing laboratory approved by the City.
18A
it
i
When required by the City, tests shall be performed on all proposed backfill
material to ensure uniform Laaupliance with City requirements Any material
that fails on-site testing is subject to removal and disposal at the expense
of the contractor/permittee.
4 As stated on the Standard 813, backfill and bedding materials shall have a
sand equivalent (S.E.) as determined by Test Method No. Calif 217 and-shall
be densified to a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent (95 percent in
the case of subparagraph 4b below) by the use of mechanical tampers, rollers,
or. vibrators approved by the City "Stamping" type equipment shall not be
used for densifying trench backfill without prior City approval when the con-
duit or pipe is other than reinforced concrete or as otherwise specified by
the public utility canpany standards Material for mechanically compacted
backfill shall be placed in lifts not exceeding thicknesses as specified in
Subsection 306-1 3 2 of the Standard Spek.ifications for the type of equipment
used Class 100-El00 sand-cement slurry, mechanically mixed (hand mixing is
not approved) and placed in conformance with City requirements, may be used
when approved by the City
a. Testing of backfill material shall be performed by the onntractor/permittee,
as required by the City to ensure uniform densification. Approval of the
test results for backfill material shall be secured from the City prior to
palcenent of permanent base or pavemesnt. All tests shall be performed at
the expense of the antractor/permittee
b. Where trench excavation occurs within existing pavement, the following
conditions shall apply-
(1) The upper 0 5 feet of subgrade and the struc ual section be densified
to a minimum relative ampaction of 95 percent. The retaining back-
fill shall be densified to a minimum relative compaction of 908
(2) All trenches which are transverse or diagonal to existing streets or
are within an intersection. shall be backfilled with Class 100-E-100
sand-cement slurry When longitudinal trenching is proposed near curbs
and gutters, the walls of the trench shall not be within 1 5 feet of
the edge of gutter (or edge of curb if there is no gutter) if the
trench is in the street, nor within 1 5 feet of the back of curb if
the trench is in- the parkway, unless prior approval is obtained from
the City When trench walls 1 5 feet or closer to the edge of gutter
(or edge of curb if there is no gutter) are approved by the City, then
the trench shall be backfilled with Class 100-E100 sand-cement slurry
(3) The existing pavement shall be cut on all sides 0 5 to 1 0 feet wider
than the trench width (as required by City Standard Drawing No. 813)
When the edge of existing pavement is so cut, all existing pavement be-
tween the edge of the cut and the gutter shall be removed if it is less
than 2 0 feet in uniform width. All edges of reconstructed pavement
shall be straight and uniform. If the contractor/pernittee chooses to
use a "pavement breaker" for marking the initial limits of trench ex-
cavation, the area so marked must be ntin n cly barricaded to prevent
traffic fran passing over the indentations in the pavement, as well as
18B
1
area immediately adjacent to any excavation Such barricading or
traffic closure, however, shall comply with contract/permit traffic
requirements, and not constitute additional closure All loose pave-
ment and other debris shall be immediately removed Prior to surfacing
of the trench the existing pavement shall be cut as specified above
Any barricading shall conform to City traffic retirements and pro-
visions of the "Work Area Traffic Control Handbook"
(4) Trench resurfacing shall match the existing street surface material
(A.0 of P.C.C.) and shall be 0.1 foot thicker than existing pavement.
The minimum thicknesses of trench resurfacing materials shall conform
to the following table:
I IACAL STREETS AND ALLEYS 1 WJOR, PRIMARY, SECCEIDARY AND

(5) If temporary asphalt concrete pavement is placed in any
pavement cut, it shall be maintained free of holes, ruts
or other failures. This tempory pavement shall be removed
and disposed of, and permanent asphalt concrete placed within
a period of ten working days or as otherwise approved for public
utility companies, following the placement of the temporary
pavement. After removal of temporary pavement and prior to
placement of permanent asphalt the surface of the subgrade,
backfill or base, and edges of adjacent pavement shall be
approved by the City This surface shall be tested/inspected
for compaction, elevation, surface uniformity, and it shall be
firm, hard and unyielding The edges of pavement shall be in-
spected for width, straightness, and proper tack coat.
(6) If the contractor/permittee proposes to open a street to traffic
after permanent asphalt concrete (base course) has been installed
in the trench, but prior to installation of the final pavement
coarse, the pavement shall be maintained in such`a manner that
holes, ruts, failures and abrupt changes in elevation will not
occur The contractor/permittee shall obtain approval fram the
City prior to opening the street to traffic within the limits of
the permitted work. !�
(7) The final pavement case shall be made in such a manner that it
will be flush and conform with the existing street surface.= The
contractor/permittee shall obtain approval from the City prior to
placing the final pavement course:
5 The City guidelines for testing backfill material are as follows
a Prior to trench excavation, the gradation sand equivalence (S.E.) ,
and relative compaction curve of the proposed backfill material
shall be determined and a certificate of compliance from a City
appproved soils testing laboratory shall be submitted to the City
The City may require additional testing at the expense of the
contractor/permittee to ensure uniform compliance and may accept
or reject the material based upon such testing Unsuitable material
as determined by the City shall be removed from the site at the ex-
pense of the contractor/permittee.
b. Relative compaction tests shall be performed at intervals not ex-
ceeding 200 feet in length and 2 0 feet in depth. Any material that
fails a compaction test shall be recarpacted or removed to limits
determined by the City
