If the construction drawings require a crushed stone leveling pad, the stone shall be placed in uniform loose lifts a maximum of 6 inches (150 mm) thick and consolidated with a minimum of three passes with a 24 inch (600 mm) wide, walk-behind, vibrating plate compactor. The compactor shall be capable of delivering a minimum of 2000 lb (9 kn) centrifugal force. C. If the construction drawings require a concrete leveling pad, the pad shall be allowed to cure to the minimum strength specified in the construction documents prior to placement of the bottom course of Stonebridge units. D. Leveling pad shall provide a firm, smooth, and level surface on which to place the Stonebridge units. There shall be full contact of the Stonebridge units on the leveling pad. SECTION
5 3.05 Stonebridge Unit Placement A. Properly mark the location of the retaining wall. Use a string line or offset stakes to establish horizontal and vertical alignment. B. For the bottom course of Stonebridge units, remove the bottom lip from the back edge of the blocks with a hammer and chisel so the blocks will lie flat on the leveling pad. C. Place a complete row of blocks on the prepared leveling pad. Blocks should be placed tight together. Check all blocks for level from front to back and side to side as they are placed. D. Place and compact stone fill in the cores of the units, between the units, and at least 12 (300 mm) behind the wall. E. Place reinforced or retained soil between the stone and the back of the excavation. F. Following backfill, re-check all units for level and alignment and sweep the top of each course of blocks clean before starting construction of the next course. G. Place the next course of Stonebridge units on top of the previous course. Stonebridge units should be placed to establish a running bond, where the block straddles and is centered on the two blocks below it. Cut blocks as needed to maintain a running bond. Partial units shall be at least 6" (150 mm) long and shall not be placed directly on top of each other. Partial units shall be adhered in place with a concrete adhesive specifically formulated for segmental concrete block wall construction. H. Push the Stonebridge blocks forward until the lip on the back of the block comes in full contact with the blocks below. I. Broken, chipped, stained or otherwise damaged units shall not be placed in the wall Geosynthetic Reinforcement Placement A. All materials shall be installed at the proper elevation and orientation as shown in the wall details on the construction drawings. The geosynthetic reinforcement shall be installed in general accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. B. Install geosynthetic material with the strong direction (roll direction) into the reinforced soil zone. The geosynthetic must be placed in a continuous sheet throughout its length from the connection at the Stonebridge units to the back of the reinforced zone. Overlap or splice connections of the geosynthetic material are not permitted. Adjacent sections of geosynthetic material shall be placed in a manner to assure that the horizontal coverage shown on the plans is provided. C. Place geosynthetic material on top of a course of Stonebridge units at the elevations shown on the construction drawings. Secure the front end of the geosynthetic material with the next course of blocks. Make sure the geosynthetic material is as close as possible to the front face of the wall without being visible. Pull the geosynthetic material taut to eliminate any folds. Use pins, staples, or other methods recommended by the manufacturer to maintain tension on the geosynthetic while placing the reinforced fill Backfill Placement A. The reinforced backfill shall be placed as shown in construction plans. The maximum loose lift thickness shall not exceed 8 inches (200 mm). Wet or dry the backfill material as needed to place the material within 2% of the optimum moisture content. Compact the backfill material to a minimum 95% of Standard Proctor as determined by ASTM D-698. Backfill shall be placed, spread and compacted in such a manner that minimizes the development of wrinkles or movement of the geosynthetic reinforcement and the wall facing units. SECTION
6 B. Only hand-operated compaction equipment shall be allowed within 3 feet (1 meter) of the front of the wall face. All compaction equipment should be large enough to achieve desired compaction, but not so large as to move the wall blocks. Monitor the wall blocks for movement during compaction and reset them if required prior to proceeding. C. Construction equipment shall not be operated directly on the geosynthetic reinforcement. A minimum backfill thickness of 6 inches (150 mm) is required prior to operation of tracked vehicles over the geosynthetic reinforcement. Turning of tracked vehicles should be kept to a minimum to prevent displacing the fill and damaging or moving the geosynthetic reinforcement. D. Place retained soil immediately between the reinforced soil zone and the back of the excavation. Material should be placed in loose lifts of 8 inches (200 mm) maximum and compacted to 95% of Standard Proctor as determined by ASTM D-698. Bring the reinforced and retained soil up to grade at the same time. At no time should the elevation of the reinforced soil be more than 1 Stonebridge unit higher than the retained soil. E. At the end of each day's operation, the wall contractor shall slope the last level of backfill away from the wall facing to direct runoff of rainwater away from the wall face. The general contractor is responsible for ensuring surface runoff from adjacent areas is not allowed to enter the wall construction area Stone fill and Drain Placement A. Stone fill shall be placed to the minimum finished thickness and widths shown on the construction drawings. B. Place the stone in uniform loose lifts a maximum of 8 inches (200 mm) thick. Consolidate the stone with a minimum of three passes with a 24 inch (600 mm) wide, walk-behind, vibrating plate compactor capable of delivering a minimum of 2000 lb (9 kn) centrifugal force. C. Drainage collection pipes shall be installed to maintain gravity flow of water outside of the reinforced soil zone. The pipe should daylight at the ends and/or through the face of the wall to allow for drainage. Connection to a catch basin or active storm sewer should only be made under the direction of the Professional Engineer responsible for the wall design. D. All drain pipes shall be placed as shown in the construction drawings. E. Secondary collection drain pipes should be sloped a minimum of two percent to provide gravity flow into the main collection drain pipe. Drainage laterals shall be spaced at a maximum of 50 feet (15 meters) along the wall face Cap Block Placement The cap block and/or top Stonebridge unit shall be bonded to the Stonebridge units below using concrete adhesive specifically formulated for segmental block wall construction. The block shall be dry and swept clean prior to adhesive placement Construction Tolerances A. Vertical alignment shall be within ± 1.25 inches (32 mm) over any 10 feet (3 m). B. Horizontal alignment shall be within ± 1.25 inches (32 mm) over any 10 feet (3 m). C. Rotation alignment shall be within ± 2 degrees of design batter.
