The Uniform Color Code was developed by the

20、Utility Location and Coordination Council (ULCC) and adopted by the APWA to both mark and identify subsurface facilities. This color code is also recommended for permanent above-ground and below-ground markings. The colors assigned and types of facility are specified in table 1. - Water, irrigation,

21、 and slurry lines Sewer and drain lines Communication lines, including fiber optic cable Proposed excavation Table 1 - Uniform color code Fluorescent Pink Temporary survey markings 4 TIAIElA-590A 4 REQUIREMENTS 4.1 Fiber optic cable installation planning The facility owner is responsible for correct

22、 route design and installation of the fiber optic cable. Fiber optic cable plant should be constructed in accordance with plans and specifications prepared under the supervision of a qualified engineer. The proper design of a fiber optic cable below-ground route is important, this being the first st

23、ep in avoiding damage to that cable by future work operations performed in the area. The following guidelines are provided to convey additional advice and information, and to emphasize that fiber optic cable placement should be in accordance with this Standard and recognized industry installation pr

24、ocedures. They should not be taken as all-inclusive and may not be applicable to all installations. - Plans for the location and installation of below-ground fiber optic cable should be made using information obtained from a field survey. - The installation plans should identify the fiber cable faci

25、litys route, placing and depth information, and information sufficient to locate other subsurface structures. Special measures to be taken for known conflicts and obstructions should be provided, and nearby structures that can assist as landmarks for route identification and future facility location

26、 should be shown and noted. - In recognition of possible right-of-way congestion, the route design should take into account interference between the present installation and future subsurface structures. - Once the route is planned, right-of-way and required permits should be obtained, recognizing n

27、eeds for access, work area, equipment enclosures, and future maintenance. Land acquisition rights and permission should be obtained before installation work begins. - When appropriate for the project, the facility owner should conduct a preconstruction meeting with involved local government agencies

28、, contractors and other utilities to cover construction plans, schedules, sequence of operations, and other concerns. - The facility owner should conduct inspections as necessary to ensure that the installation is in accordance with the approved plans. - As-built facility location records should be

29、maintained by the facility owner. Location record information should be available for reference when other parties or government agencies are planning work in the area to allow them to plan to avoid damage or conflicts with the fiber optic cable facilities. As-built records cannot be expected to ref

30、lect subsequent changes in landscape, public works, landmarks, or foreign underground structures. Such records cannot be considered as a substitute for field locating and marking of the fiber cable as required in 4.1 0.4. 5 4.2 Location Facility Toll, trunk cable Feeder, distribution cable Servicddr

37、Rule 341 A6. 4.2.3 Separations from foreign structures The minimum desirable separation between existing foreign structures and communications cables (or underground conduit containing communications cables) should be as shown in table 4. Table 4 - Minimum separations from foreign structures These c

38、learances are necessary to provide sufficient space for maintenance of foreign structures, although they may be subject to adjustment to meet particular conditions. Questions that occur regarding any reduction of these clearances should be discussed with a responsible representative of the owning co

39、mpany. 4.2.4 Permanent markings Either permanent aboveground markers or underground warning tape, or both, are recommended to identify the general location of the facility route. These devices, however, cannot be relied upon to determine the precise location of the underground facility. Permanent ma

40、rkers should be placed at line-of-sight intervals so that the direction of the route is clearly indicated. These markers should be visible from the adjoining marker, but separated by no more than 300 m (1000 ft.), if land use permits. Markers are usually placed at right-of-way boundaries, utility or

41、 vehicular crossings, or at other locations dictated by local conditions. These markers should be identified with the name of the facility owner and one or more telephone contact numbers to obtain the precise facility locaon. Where a warning tape is used, it should be buried at least 300 mm (12 in.)

42、 above the cable and should not deviate more than 450 mm (18 in.) from the outside edge of the facility. Care must be exercised during its placing to ensure proper final positioning of the tape. The use of warning tape above service or drop lines on private property is optional. Warning tapes should

43、 have sufficient tensile strength and elongation properties so that when encountered in excavating they are not easily broken and will stretch significantly before breaking. 7 TINEIA-590A Extended periods of burial in soil should not degrade their mechanical characteristics, color, or markings. Tape

44、s with metallic coatings will gwerally exhibit less elongation than dielectric tapes. Tapes should be at least 50 mm (2 in.) wid. ,.irid colored orange in accordance with the Uniform Color Code of the American Public Works Association (APWA) - Utility Location and Coordination Council (ULCC). The ta

45、pe should be marked with warning information identifying the type of facility that is below. Additional information is desirable to show specific contact information and to identify the facility owner. No quantitative performance characteristics for tape can be stated, since no industry standard spe

46、cification for warning tape is known to exist. Warning tape, when used, should not be relied upon as a primary locating device for the cable. 4.3 Riser poles Fiber optic cables on riser poles should have mechanical protection such as a duct or U-guard on the pole extending from the ground for approx

47、imately 2.5 meters (8 feet). This mechanical protection should extend below ground level via a conduit bend to the specified burial depth of the cable (see table 2). Risers should be located on the pole in the safest position with respect to possible traffic damage and climbing space. For added cabl

48、e protection above the U-guard or duct, the fiber cable may be placed in innerduct extending above the U-guard up and onto the supporting aerial strand. From an underground conduit, this innerduct may be run from the manhole, through the subsidiary duct and U-guard onto the supporting aerial strand.

49、 4.4 Building entrances Buried fiber cable may enter a building at the same depth as the facility (see table 1) through the building wall via a duct. Entrance to a building may also be made above ground. The :- losed fiber cable should be secured to the building and mechanically protected with conduit .erduct, or U-guard. 4.5 Underwater cable crossings The Amy Corps of Engineers regulates activities involving interstate waters and associated marshes and tributaries, intrastate waters (which c, A affect interstate or foreign commerce), and the territorial seas for a seaward distanc
