0 <br />precast, prestressed concrete plants and listed on the Departments Qualified Products List <br />(QPL). <br />Provide written certification from the manufacturer of the pole(s) that it meets the <br />requirements of this Section and are the same pole(s) listed on the QPL. <br />Ensure that each pole is permanently and legibly marked in accordance with Design <br />Standards, Index No. 17725 including the date cast. <br />Ensure that each shipment of products to the job site includes a list of products <br />shipped and the required written certification statement for each product. Provide this list <br />and certification(s) to the Engineer. <br />641 -2 Materials. <br />Meet the following requirements: <br />Portland Cement Concrete* ........ Section 346 *Class V Special <br />641 -3 Concrete Pole Construction. <br />Construct concrete poles in accordance with Section 450. Assume responsibility for <br />performance of all quality control testing and inspections required by Sections 346 and <br />450, however; the PCI personnel and plant certifications are not required. <br />641 -4 Installation Requirements. <br />641 -4.1 General: Furnish poles of the type and length shown on the plans. Provide <br />catenary cable of the size shown on the plans. Ground poles in accordance with <br />Section 620. Install span wire assemblies in accordance with Section 634. <br />Do not consider the poles acceptable for use if the camber of the pole, <br />measured as the maximum deviation between the centerline of the pole and a straight line <br />connecting the centroids of the cross - sections at each end of the pole, is greater than the <br />total pole length in inches [millimeters] divided by 1401. <br />641 -4.2 Footings: Provide footings 3 feet 6 inches [1 m] in diameter and of the <br />depth specified in the plans for strain poles used for span wire support of traffic signals. <br />Provide footings for all other pole applications as specified in the plans. Construct the <br />footings with Class I concrete as specified in Section 347. <br />For the excavation and backfill of the footing, meet the requirements <br />q�p specified in 125 -4 and 125 -8.2 with the exception of the backfill density. In lieu of the <br />I� requirements for obtaining the specified density, the Contractor may hand tamp the backfill <br />in 4 inches [100 mm] maximum layers or machine tamp the backfill in 6 inches [150 mm] <br />maximum layers. When performing such operations, ensure that the material is neither dry <br />nor saturated. The Contractor may backfill with concrete. <br />Use forms, when required, meeting the requirements of 700 -7.3. If the <br />footing is cast in an oversize hole, place the concrete in the top 6 inches [ 150 mm] in a <br />form. Trowel all exposed surfaces to a smooth finish. <br />641 -4.3 Orientation of Poles: For poles supporting one catenary wire, orient the <br />pole so that the load face is perpendicular to the catenary wire. For poles supporting two <br />catenary wires, orient the pole so that the load face is perpendicular to a line bisecting the <br />angle between the two catenary wires. <br />641 -5 Method of Measurement. <br />641 -5.1 General: Measurement for payment will be in accordance with the <br />following work tasks. <br />March 2007 01000 -148 03- 4122.D <br />
