B. Pipe: Measurement of pipe shall be computed using linear feet, as measured along
<br />the centerline of the pipe installed (Except when included in lump sum bid items -ie;
<br />Aerial crossing). No deduction will be made for the length of valves and fittings
<br />installed in the line. Where the measurement terminates at a valve, bend, tee, or other
<br />fitting, the centerline of the valve or fitting shall be the point of termination. All
<br />required erosion control clearing, excavation, backfill, compaction, all restoration and
<br />replacement, paving, grading, density testing, pipe lining, coating, encasement
<br />material, restraining devices, and all mechanical joint fittings and thrust blocks shall
<br />be included in the cost of the pipe.
<br />C. Fittings: Measurement of cast iron and ductile iron fittings shall be on the basis of
<br />weight. The weights used to determine the quantity installed shall be the weights of
<br />the appropriate fittings as listed in the supplier's invoice or catalog. When
<br />mechanical joint fittings are required, the weight of the gland bolts and gaskets shall
<br />not be added to the listed weight of the fittings. Where flanged fittings are furnished,
<br />the weight of the bolts and gaskets shall not be included.
<br />D. Gate Valves, air release valves, Tapping Sleeve and Valves and other miscellaneous
<br />appurtenances: Measurement shall be on the basis of furnishing and installing each
<br />type and size of appurtenance required, including valve boxes, covers, and other
<br />associated items. (Except when included in lump sum bid items — eg; aerial crossing,
<br />directional bore.)
<br />E. Fire Hydrant Assembly: Measurement of fire hydrant assembly shall be for the
<br />actual number constructed in accordance with the Plans and Specifications, or as
<br />directed by the Engineer, at the unit price bid for the item "Fire Hydrant Assembly,"
<br />scheduled in the Form of Proposal. The unit price for "Fire Hydrant Assembly" shall
<br />include cutting bituminous paving, removal of paving courses and curb if required,
<br />excavation, furnishing and installation required length of 6" DIP water main, dry -
<br />barrel traffic hydrant, concrete foundations for hydrant, fitting, one (1) 6" diameter
<br />gate valve, concrete thrust block (reaction backing) for fire hydrant , backfill, blue
<br />reflective markers, all materials, equipment, labor and all else necessary therefore
<br />and incidential thereto.
<br />F. HDPE Horizontal Directional Bore: Measurement of HDPE horizontal directional
<br />bore shall be computed using linear feet, as measured prior to pulling, and deducting
<br />the length of pipe above ground service and include all material (including HDPE
<br />pipe), equipment, supplies, fuel, labor, sheeting and bracing, receiving and boring
<br />pits (if required), excavation, dewatering, backfilling, compaction, mechanical
<br />fittings, restoration, furnishing and in stallion of the HDPE pipe. Payments shall be
<br />based on a linear foot price for the directional bore length as measured as specified
<br />above.
