9 HOMEWORK PROBLEM # 1 Plan Quantity (PQ) Analysis Reference: Module 2 - Method of Measurement & Documentation

10 SOLUTION TO HOMEWORK PROBLEM #1 The key is to remember that the adjustment to a Plan Quantity Item is based on the CONTRACT, not on the individual project within the contract. Total Plan Quantity = 5,300 SY + 2,200 SY = 7,500 SY Total Plan Errors = = SY Analyze the Plan Error quantities to see if they qualify for payment. Per Specifications, either one of these analyses would qualify to change the Plan Quantity. Step 1: Determine if the quantities exceed 5% allowable 500 SY 100 = 6.7% Exceeds the allowable 5% 7,500 SY Step 2: Determine if the quantities exceed $5,000 allowable Solution: Final Pay Quantity for Asphalt Base (Pay Item 285): = Plan Quantity + Plan Error + Field Changes = 7,500 SY SY + (200 SY SY) = 8,300 SY See the attached Plan Quantity Analysis and Plan Summary Sheets for the proper way to document changes to the quantities. Documentation for each project number should be kept separate for proper tracking.

27 HOMEWORK PROBLEM #5 FC-5 Open Graded Friction Course Straightedge Deficiency Reference: Module 3 - Asphalt After a straightedge test was performed, it was determined that a straightedge deficiency will be left in place at no pay. Calculate the equivalent tonnage that will be affected by this decision given the following information below. Lane Width = 12 ft. Deficient Straightedge Location = Station 1+50 to Station 1+55 Spread Rate = 75 Lbs/ SY

28 SOLUTION TO HOMEWORK PROBLEM #5 Per Specifications the penalty is applied 50 ft. each side of the deficiency; therefore the total length will be 105 ft. Length of Deficiency = STA 1+55 STA 1+50 = 5 ft Total Length of Penalty = 5 ft + 50 ft + 50 ft = 105 ft Total Tons to be deducted = (Length) (Width) (0.0044) = (105 ft) (12 ft) (0.0044) = 5.54 Tons The total tonnage to be deducted is 5.5 Tons. Note: Remember that tonnage is always rounded to the nearest tenth.

45 HOMEWORK PROBLEM #12 Concrete Piling Reference: Module 6 Structures How many feet of piling will the Contractor be paid for this pile given the information below for a 24 concrete production pile? Remember to use the Payment Summary Sheets and refer to Design Standards Index. No Given: Authorized Length = 125 ft.; no pre-forming done There were 4 set checks performed; all within the day of initial driving Only 1 re-drive was performed The Engineer authorized a 30 ft. pile to be spliced and the splice was driven. It was cut-off after reaching bearing.

46 SOLUTION TO HOMEWORK PROBLEM #12 Concrete Piling Reference: Module 6 Structures Solution: Contractor used 125 concrete pile and the pile had 4 set checks (2 which are included in the bid price since they are within the appropriate timeframe as outlined in the Specifications); the additional 2 will add 20 LF to the Production Pile. The pile did not reach bearing, therefore the Engineer approved a 30 ft. splice. The 30 ft. of Pile + 30 ft. for material & work for splice of concrete pile will be paid for. Driving the splice will add 10 ft. of Production Pile. Total Production Pile = 235 ft.

47 HOMEWORK PROBLEM #13 Concrete Piling Reference: Module 6 Structures The Engineer of Record designed a 24 concrete production pile to be driven 130. The contractor brought in and drove a 120 ft. concrete production pile, 24 in diameter, and reached bearing. In order to meet the required elevation,hespliceda10ft.pile,as authorized by the Engineer. How many feet of piling furnished will the contractor be paid for this pile? Additional information is given below: Authorized Length = 130 ft. There were 2 set checks performed; all within the day of initial driving 60 ft of pre-forming was approved Only 1 re-drive performed Note: Remember to use the Payment Summary Sheets and refer to Design Standards Index. No

48 SOLUTION TO HOMEWORK PROBLEM #13 Concrete Piling Reference: Module 6 Structures Solution: Authorized Length = 130 ft., however the contractor brought in a 120 ft. pile instead. The 120 ft. of piling furnished will be paid. He drove the pile and reached bearing where he had to splice a 10 ft. pile to make the required elevation (which was originally authorized by the Engineer). The Contractor will also be paid for the 10 ft. pile, but not for the splice. Since the contractor knew the original length was 130 and chose to splice 10 of the total length, the Department is not responsible for paying for the splice. Note: The contractor can deliver the authorized piling length in whatever lengths he deems necessary, but no payment will be issued for the additional work for delivering those lengths unless prior approved. 2 set checks were included in the bid price. The Engineer approved the 60 ft. of preformed pile hole so 30% of each foot which is: 0.3 (60 ft)= 18 ft will be paid.

49 HOMEWORK PROBLEM #14 Concrete Piling Reference: Module 6 Structures The Engineer of Record authorized a 24 diameter concrete production pile 140 in length to be driven on a project. The Contractor, at his own option, brought in 1 at 120 feet and one at 20 feet, spliced to make 140 feet and drove the pile to bearing. Does the Department pay for the splice and driving of the splice? How many feet of piling will the contractor be paid for this pile given the additional information below? Remember to use the Payment Summary Sheets and refer to Design Standards Index. No Given: There were 2 set checks performed; all within the day of initial driving The redrive was performed after the working day following initial driving. A build-up of 4.5 ft. was required to reach the required cutoff elevation. All were authorized.

50 SOLUTION TO HOMEWORK PROBLEM #14 Concrete Piling Reference: Module 6 Structures Solution: Contractor brought in one pile at 120 feet and one at 20 feet long and spliced them to make 140 feet. The splice (materials & labor) and the driving of the splice do not qualify for payment since the Contractor chose to split the length. The 2 set checks were included in the bid price. Since the redrive and build-up were authorized, as shown in the previous table, the Department will pay for these items.

51 HOMEWORK PROBLEM #15 Concrete Piling Reference: Module 6 Structures The authorized length of a 24 concrete production pile on a project is 120, perthe Engineer of Record. The contractor, at his own option, delivered a 130 foot pile instead of the authorized 120 foot length. What is the total pile furnished that the Contractor will be paid given the additional information below? Given: The Engineer approved a preformed hole of 60 feet There were 3 set checks all within the working day following initial driving The pile was driven until it reached bearing at 120 feet. 10 feet of pile was cut off to reach the required elevation.

52 SOLUTION TO HOMEWORK PROBLEM #15 Concrete Piling Reference: Module 6 Structures Solution: The Contractor will be paid 120 ft., because that was the authorized length and all that was needed to reach bearing. The cut off of 10 ft will not be paid because the extra length was delivered at the contractor s discretion and was not authorized or needed. Preformed Pile Hole = 0.30 (60 ft) = 18 ft. 3 set-checks were within the working day following initial driving; therefore 2 are included in the bid price and the third set check will be paid as 10 ft. of production pile. No pay for cut-off since the Contractor chose to bring additional length beyond the authorized length to the job and due to Specification which doesn t allow payment for cut offs.

53 HOMEWORK PROBLEM #16 Concrete Piling Reference: Module 6 Structures The authorized length of a concrete test pile on a project is 120, per the Engineer of Record. The contractor delivered a 120 foot pile and drove it until reaching bearing. What is the total pile furnished that the contractor will be paid given the additional information below? There was no pre-forming 4 set-checks were completed; 2 on the day of initial driving and 2 on the working day following initial driving The pile was re-driven The pile reached bearing before reaching the required elevation and 5 of piling was cut off

54 SOLUTION TO HOMEWORK PROBLEM #16 Concrete Piling Reference: Module 6 Structures Solution: The Contractor furnished the authorized length of 120 ; therefore 120 will be paid. Allowable set-checks included within the bid price for test pilings include 4 from the day of initial driving to the working day following initial driving; therefore no additional pay is needed. One re-drive was required which should be paid 20. Cutoff is included in the bid price

55 HOMEWORK PROBLEM #17 Concrete Piling Reference: Module 6 Structures How many feet of piling will the contractor be paid for this pile given the information below for a steel production pipe pile? Remember to use the Payment Summary Sheets and refer to Design Standards Index. No Given: Authorized Length = 100 ft. The contractor delivered a 80 ft. pile. The Contractor also delivered a 20 ft. pile to make the 100 ft., but did not splice the piles. The contractor drove the 80 ft. pile to bearing at 75 ft and cut off the pile to the required elevation. There were 4 set checks performed; 3 on the day of initial driving and 1 on the working day following initial driving

56 SOLUTION TO HOMEWORK PROBLEM #17 Concrete Piling Reference: Module 6 Structures Since the contractor did not furnish and install the authorized 100 ft., they will only be paid the length of piling furnished and installed, which is 80 ft. For steel production piles, 2 set checks from the day of initial driving to the working day following initial driving are included in the bid price. The 2 additional set checks within this timeframe will be paid at 10 feet of production pile each. Note: If the Contractor would have spliced the 20 foot pile to the 80 foot pile and drove it, the Contractor would have been paid 100 foot of piling, delivered and furnished.

57 HOMEWORK PROBLEM #18 Concrete Piling Reference: Module 6 Structures How many feet of piling will the contractor be paid for this pile given the information below for a 24 steel production pile? Remember to use the Payment Summary Sheets and refer to Design Standards Index. No Given: Authorized Length = 80 ft. The contractor delivered two 40 ft. piles. The engineer authorized an additional 10 ft splice. The contractor drove the pile to bearing at 89 ft and cut off the pile to the required elevation. 20 ft. of preforming was authorized. There were 3 set checks performed; all within the day of initial driving

58 SOLUTION TO HOMEWORK PROBLEM #18 Concrete Piling Reference: Module 6 Structures The Contractor delivered 2 (40 ft.) piles, spliced and drove the piles. The Department will not pay for that splice and materials and labor for driving of the splice, because the contractor delivered the authorized length in 2 pieces and spliced them at his discretion. Contractor is allowed 2 set checks from the day of initial driving to the working day following initial driving. Since 10 ft. of production pile will be paid for each additional set check in the allowable timeframe, an additional 10 ft will be paid. The only authorized splice is for the additional 10 ft.. The Contractor will be paid 10 for the length of the splice and 20 ft. for the materials and labor for driving the splice. There is no payment in the specification for driving the splice.
