b. Dense natural rock or weathered rock layers shall not be deemed obstructions, and
piers may be terminated short of design lengths on such materials.
4. Utility Excavations: The General Contractor shall coordinate all excavations made
subsequent to RAP installation so that excavations do not encroach on the piers as
shown in the RAP construction drawings. Protection of completed RAP elements is the
responsibility of the General Contractor. In the event that utility excavations are required
in close proximity to the installed RAP elements, the General Contractor shall contact the
RAP Designer immediately to develop construction solutions to minimize impacts on the
installed RAP elements.
5. Footing Bottoms:
a. Excavation and surface compaction of all footings shall be the responsibility of the
General Contractor.
b. Foundation excavations to expose the tops of RAP elements shall be made in a
workman-like manner, and shall be protected until concrete placement, with
procedures and equipment best suited to (1) avoid exposure to water, (2) prevent
softening of the matrix soil between and around the RAP elements before pouring
structural concrete, and (3) achieve direct and firm contact between the dense,
undisturbed RAP elements and the concrete footing.
c. All excavations for footing bottoms supporting RAP foundations shall be prepared in
the following manner by the General Contractor. Recommended procedures for
achieving these goals are to:
1. Limit over-excavation below the bottom of the footing to 3 inches (including
disturbance from the teeth of the excavation equipment).
BID PACKAGE NO. 1 ISSUED: 11/21/2014
12043 316225 - 7
THE OLIVIA ON MAIN RAMMED AGGREGATE PIERS
2. Compaction of surface soil and top of RAP elements shall be prepared using a
motorized impact compactor (“Wacker Packer,” “Jumping Jack,” or similar).

bottom shall be recompacted or removed, respectively. The surface of the
aggregate pier shall be recompacted prior to completing footing bottom
preparation.
3. Place footing concrete immediately after footing excavation is made and
approved, preferably the same day as the excavation. Footing concrete must be
placed on the same day if the footing is bearing in moisture-sensitive soils. If
same day placement of footing concrete is not possible, open excavations shall
be protected from surface water accumulation. A lean concrete mud-mat may be
used to accomplish this. Other methods must be pre-approved by the Designer.
d. The following criteria shall apply, and a written inspection report sealed by the project
Testing Agency shall be furnished to the Installer to confirm:
1. That water (which may soften the unconfined matrix soil between and around the
RAP elements, and may have detrimental effects on the supporting capability of
the RAP reinforced subgrade) has not been allowed to pond in the footing
excavation at any time.
2. That all RAP elements designed for each footing have been exposed in the
footing excavation.
3. That immediately before footing construction, the tops of RAP elements exposed
in each footing excavation have been inspected and recompacted as necessary
with mechanical compaction equipment.
4. That no excavations or drilled shafts (elevator piston, etc.) have been made after
installation of RAP elements within the excavation limits described in the RAP
construction drawings, without the written approval of the Installer or Designer.
e. Failure to provide the above inspection and certification by the Testing Agency, which
is beyond the responsibility of the RAP Installer, may void any written or implied
warranty on the performance of the RAP system.
