Central office will not accept the bedding as structural bridge, but central office will consider a variance request referencing the deflection test and bedding material. The variance request and supporting documentation (calculations, bedding material information and deflection test results) can be submitted to central office for review and approval. If the variation request is approved, then we can finalize approval of the engineering certification.

I heard back from Zac on Friday. His response is below. It sounds like they do not consider the bedding a structural bridge, but you can request a variance based on the results of the deflection test. Please let me know if you have any questions and feel free to reach out directly to Zac regarding a potential variance.

The engineer sent me the below information to my request for clarification and any potential structural bridging. Would Central Office consider Class I bedding material an adequate structural bridge under 02T.0305(g) if the pipe passed its deflection test?

Mikhal, Per our phone conversation earlier today, we still have one crossing issue that was not resolved as we got asbuilt stormwater information in. The crossing at MH 2 & MH 3 is still approximately .6’ or around 7-8” from top of sewer to bottom of the HDPE storm pipe. Both pipes were installed with class 1 bedding, which generally consisted of screenings or 57 stone. I believe this backfill material qualifies as structural bridging under section 02T.0305(g)(1). The backfill material minimizes any point loads coming from the upper pipe and additionally we have passed the mandrel test for the sewer line, which would have detected any load that could have caused deflection in the lower sewer pipe. Please confirm if the above meets intent of this section as you have time. Brendan Ultimately, this is your system and line. With assumption Mikhal approves the above please confirm if that is also acceptable to you for the lines to remain as is. A fix would mostly like require saw cutting brand new pavement, which is what I am hoping to avoid.

The sewer asbuilt used design data for the storm crossings, so I am field verifying to see what that result are for ascutal storm crossings. I will update as I get that info shortly.

It appears the minimum separation between the stormwater crossings and the sewer line are not met between MH3 & MH2 and MH7 and MH8 and DIP was not used. Is there an additional control measure in place in these areas to meet the alternatives allowed under 02T.0305(g)?
