The bypass valves on the inlet/outlet will be closed during the work, and the existing water main (10" AC) in 99 th St E will remain in service. o Delivery of the City pre-purchased vault from the Water Division yard (3628 S. 35 th St, Tacoma, WA) to the job location (approximately 203 99 th St E, Tacoma WA 98455). The vault is in three pieces: base (11,340 lbs), solid wall center (9,600 lbs), and top (9,750 lbs). The overall size of each section is 10'-8" long and 8'-8" wide. A detailed vault drawing is located in Appendix A - Miscellaneous. o Excavation and placement of the vault base, solid wall center and top. An appropriate base course, compacted to required density, will be required. The vault must align with the existing 12-inch ductile iron as shown in the Drawings. o Concrete coring for each 12" ductile penetrations, including coring for the ventilation piping, drain piping, and conduit to the existing vault will be made after the vault is installed. The drawings specify the required core size for each component listed above. o Fabricating two (specialized) concrete anchors at each end of the vault for the 12" pipe penetrations. These anchors must be constructed in accordance with the drawings. Each will utilize the City pre-purchased ductile iron FL x PE spool pieces. Careful attention must be made to the elevation and bolt pattern alignment. o Install 12-inch ductile iron main and fittings as required to make the connections (see project drawings), ventilation piping, and sump drain. o Install PRV, strainer, valve(s), dismantling joint and specially fabricated steel fittings (see project drawings).
