2. No personnel working on the geogid shall smoke, wear damaging shoes or engage in other activities that could damage the geogrid. • 3. On slopes, the geogid shall be secwely anchored and then rolled down the slope in such a manner as to continually keep the sheet in tension. 4. Geogrid panels shall be deployed in such a manner as to preclude wrinkles and folds. 5. Geogid within the lined area shall be cut with a cutter approved by CC&V, such as scissors. Unshielded razor knives are not acceptable. 6. Two layers of geogrid shall be installed as indicated on the Drawings. The layers will be placed at right angles to each other as directed by the CERTIFYING ENGINEER 7. The subgade shall be prepared for geogid placement by uniform grading. No steep grade changes or edges shall be allowed. The CERTIFYING ENGINEER shall approve the subgrade prior to geogid installation. The subgrade must not be smooth rolled. B. Joining 1. The geogid shall be placed in continuous pieces downslope. 2. If the geogrid is to be joined end to end, a pinned connection splice shall be used. The pinned connection must be manufactwed from IIDPE materials and shall be manufacturer approved. C. Defects and Repairs • 1. All damaged geogrid rolls shall be rejected. No repairs shall be made. 3.03 PLACEMENT OF SOIL OR GRANULAR MATERIALS: All soil materials located on top of a geogid shall be placed in such a manner as to enswe: 1. The geogrid is not damaged. 2. Minimal movement and wrinkling or folding of the underlying geogid layer(s) occws. 3. No excess tensile stresses shall occw in the geogid such as when earth moving equipment makes sudden starts, stops, or toms. 4. Soil placement over the geogid shall be performed with construction equipment approved by the CERTIFYING ENGINEER. Such construction equipment includes low to moderate ground presswe dozers (e.g, D-6 or D-8 CAT dozer). Dozers will push soil materials over the geogid from the bottom of the slope in an uphill direction. 5. A minimum of 6" of soil cover shall be placed over the geogrid layers. No construction equipment shall operate directly on the geogrid layer or on less than 6" of soil cover.. 6. Soil cover over the geogrid shall consist of Select Structwal Fill and shall be compacted and placed according to Select Structwal Fill SPECIFICATIONS in Section 2200. 7. Extent of geogid reinforced areas shall be surveyed and staked in the field by the CONTRACTOR. Subsequent constmction activities over the reinforced azeas shall not damage geogid or reduce soil cover thickness to less than 6 inches. *** END OF SECTION *** Section 02776.1 Page 5 of 5 December 9, 1998 Geogrid Golder Associates Revision 3 is\o0\2203\Oa00\CERiREPo803 W PPENDS WPPE102)'161R3.DOC
