It is attended to assistsewer owners and engineer, owners representative, or autho-rized inspectors for installation method specification and forcontractors to refer to during installations of chemical grout formanhole sealing.5. Materials5.1 Grouti
20、ng MaterialsChemical grout sealing material:5.1.1 Acrylamide base gel,5.1.2 Acrylic base gel,5.1.3 Hydrophilic polyurethane foam or gel,5.1.4 Hydrophobic polyurethane foam or gel, and,5.1.5 Oil-free, oakum-soaked polyurethane resin.5.2 Grouting Materials CharacteristicsSpecific charac-teristics that
21、 pertain to the application requirements are to bedefined and approved by the owners representative or projectengineer of record. The following general characteristics orproperties shall be exhibited by the chemical grout:5.2.1 The chemical grout shall have documented service ofsatisfactory performa
22、nce in similar usage and should have amanufacturers written guarantee of performance for the appli-cation of sewer manhole sealing under intended conditions andwhen installed per the manufacturers instructions.5.2.2 The chemical grout shall have controllable reactiontimes and minimal shrinkage, as s
23、pecified by the owner,owners representative, or engineer, through the use of chemi-cals supplied by the same manufacturer. The minimum set timeshall be established so that adequate grout travel is achieved.5.2.3 The chemical grout shall have resistance to chemicals,most organic solvents, mild acids,
24、 and alkali. The manufacturerof the chemical grout shall e able to certify that the curedchemical grout is resistant to chemicals, most organic solvents,mild acids, and alkali and provide such certification to thecontractor when requested.5.2.4 The chemical grout shall be essentially non-toxic in ac
25、ured form. The manufacturer of the chemical grout shall beable to certify that the cured chemical grout is non-toxic andprovide such certification to the contractor when requested.5.2.5 Sealing material shall not be rigid or brittle whensubjected to dry atmosphere. Use consideration when selectingma
26、terials for freeze/thaw and moving load conditions. Theengineer is to specify which chemical grout type can or cannotbe exposed to dry atmosphere and which types must beinstalled into soils or wet conditions only, based on thechemical grout properties and recommended applications.5.2.6 The sealing m
27、aterial shall be non-corrosive.5.2.7 Careful consideration of current or potential wet-drycycles, ground pressures, and thermal conditions and applica-tion requirements must be thoroughly reviewed by the contrac-tor or engineer when choosing or approving the appropriatetype of chemical grout.5.2.8 C
28、areful consideration of water type (storm waterversus waste water) is to be considered when choosing orapproving the appropriate type of materials.5.3 AdditivesThe chemical grout must be applied so as tohave the grout material flow freely into the defects. To avoidany wasting of the material flowing
29、 through the defects gelcontrol agent may be added. Grout additions may also be usedfor catalyzing the reaction, inhibiting the reaction, buffering thesolution, lowering the freezing temperature of the solution,acting as filler, providing strength, or inhibition of root growth.5.3.1 Additives must n
30、ot alter other intended final propertiesand characteristics of the original material other than theproperties targeted for improvement.5.4 Material IdentificationThe contractor shall com-pletely identify the types of grout, sealant, root control chemi-cals, or any combination thereof, used and provi
31、de casehistories of successful use or defend the choice of groutingmaterials based on chemical and tested physical properties,ease of application, and expected performance to the satisfac-tion of the engineer, owners representative, or authorizedinspector. The grout materialsTechnical Data Sheets, M
32、aterialSafety Data Sheets, and the manufacturers application instruc-tions are to be submitted for approval by the engineer, ownersrepresentative, or authorized inspector.5.5 Mixing and Handling:5.5.1 HazardsMixing and handling of chemical grout,which may be toxic under certain conditions, shall be
33、inaccordance with the recommendations of the manufacturer andin such a manner as to minimize hazard to personnel. It is theresponsibility of the contractor to provide appropriate protec-tive measures to ensure that the chemicals are handled byauthorized personnel and in the proper manner.5.5.2 All e
34、quipment shall be subject to the approval of theengineer, owners representative, or authorized inspector. Onlypersonnel thoroughly familiar with the handling of the groutmaterial and additives shall perform the grouting operations.6. Procedure6.1 Manhole grouting shall not be performed until the rep
35、airor stabilization (bracing) of the manhole frame and grade ringsor any other structural manhole repairs are complete.6.2 Preliminary Repairs:6.2.1 The contractor shall cut and trim all stems and rootswithin the manhole.6.2.2 The contractor shall seal all unsealed lifting holes,unsealed step holes,
36、 and voids larger than approximately12 in.(1 cm) in thickness. All cracked or deteriorated material shallbe removed from the area to be patched and replaced with awaterproof quick-setting mortar in accordance with manufac-turers specifications. The expanded gasket procedure (EGP)method is also accep
37、table for plugging lift holes and similarpatching.6.2.3 As required to complete sealing of the manhole, thecontractor may be required to perform the expanded gasketprocedure (EGP) in addition to, or as well as, the injection ofchemical grout into voids or soil surrounding the manhole toF2414042contr
38、ol inflowing water in larger cracks, joints, or pipe tomanhole boots. EGP is the sealing of joints, cracks, or holes bysoaking dry, oil-free oakum with chemical grout and forcingthe oakum/resin plug into the opening until it sets.6.2.4 The contractor may also be required to perform theEGP to seal in
39、truding drop or lateral connections, slip lineterminal seals, and open joints in RCP manholes.6.2.5 The contractor may also be required to perform theEGP to seal between the corbel and grade rings and betweenthe manhole frame and grade rings.6.2.6 Grout Curtain SealingIf a chemical grout curtain isr
40、equired around a brick or block manhole, the procedure mayinvolve the use of chemical grout in combination with acoating.6.2.7 The manhole surface shall be cleaned, patched, and allactive leaks plugged and confirmed by the engineer, ownersrepresentative, or authorized inspector, before coatings may
41、beapplied.6.3 TemperatureNormal grouting operations shall be per-formed in accordance with manufacturers recommendations.6.4 Chemical Grouting Material UsageChemical grout-ing of the manhole may include corbel, wall, pipe seals,manhole joints, wall to flattop joint, bench/trough, or anycombination t
42、hereof. Chemical grouting may also includeprobe grouting around the exterior of the manhole and into thesurrounding soil in order to seal off or keep water away fromthe manhole, or to stabilize loose soils around the manhole.The engineer, owners representative, or authorized inspector,will direct ar
43、eas of the manhole designated to be grouted. If theentire manhole is scheduled for grouting, grouting shall includethe entire manhole including corbel, wall, pipe seals, andbench/trough. Pipe seal grouting shall include all pipe seals inthe specified manhole and grouting of the specified manholeincl
44、uding the bench/trough to the maximum height of 18 in.(46 cm) from the crown of the pipes (see Fig. 1).6.5 Drilling and Injection:6.5.1 Injection holes shall be drilled through the manholewall at locations as recommended by the manufacturer. Injec-tion holes are always to be drilled staggered within
45、 rows (seeFIG. 1 Manhole with Spiral Pattern Drill HolesF2414043Fig. 1). Additional injection holes shall be drilled near ob-served defects and at pipe seals.6.5.2 Grout shall be injected through the holes under pres-sure with a suitable probe. Injection pressure shall not causedamage to the manhole
46、 structure or surrounding surfacefeatures. Grout shall be injected through the lowest holes first.The procedure shall be repeated until the manhole is externallysealed with grout.6.5.3 External grouting from the ground surface may berequired to seal leaks due to cavities and voids around themanhole.
47、6.5.4 Grout travel shall be verified by observation of groutextruding from defects or adjacent injection holes. Additionalinjection holes shall be drilled, if necessary, to ensure obser-vation of grout travel to all required regions.6.5.5 Injection holes shall be cleaned and patched with awaterproof
48、 quick-setting mortar for appropriate use on the typeof substrate material the manhole is composed of.7. Testing of Sealed Manholes7.1 For exfiltration or vacuum testing usually 10 % of thesealed manholes are tested, as chosen or required by theinspector. Manholes that fail are reworked and retested
49、 by thecontractor. If more that 5 % of the manholes tested fail theinitial test, an additional 10 % of the sealed manholes aretested. This process continues until the testing is satisfactory oruntil all manholes have been tested.7.2 Limitations of testing include recognizing that exfiltra-tion and vacuum testing may be non-applicable or cost-prohibitive for all manholes; therefore, the use of either methodis subject to the following considerations.7.2.1 Complete SealingThese test methods are applicableonly when the entire manhole has been
