Significance and Use4.1 Corrugated aluminum structural plate pipe functionsstructurally as a flexible ring that is supported by and interactswith the compacted surrou

16、nding soil. The soil placed aroundthe structure is thus an integral part of the structural system. Itis therefore important to ensure that the soil structure is madeup of the acceptable material and well-constructed. Fieldverification of soil structure acceptability using Test MethodsD 1556, D 2167,

17、 D 2922,orD 2937, as applicable, and com-paring the results with Test Methods D 698 or D 1557,inaccordance with the specifications for each project, is the mostreliable basis for installation of an acceptable structure. Therequired density and method of measurement are not specifiedby this practice

18、but must be established in the specifications foreach project.5. Trench Excavation5.1 To obtain the anticipated structural performance ofstructural plate structures, it is not necessary to control trenchwidth beyond the minimum necessary for proper assembly ofthe structure and placement of the struc

19、tural backfill. However,the soil on each side beyond the excavated trench must be ableto support anticipated loads. When a construction situationcalls for a relatively wide trench, it may be made as wide asrequired for its full depth, if so desired. However, trenchexcavation must be in compliance wi

20、th any local, state, andfederal codes and safety regulations.6. Foundation6.1 The supporting soil beneath the structure must provide areasonably uniform resistance to the imposed load, bothlongitudinally and laterally. Sharp variations in the foundationmust be avoided. When rock is encountered, it m

21、ust beexcavated and replaced with soil. If the structure is to be placedon a continuous rock foundation, it will be necessary to providea bedding of soil between the rock and the structure. See Fig.3.6.2 Lateral changes in foundation should never be such thatthe structure is firmly supported while t

22、he backfill on eitherside is not. When soft material is encountered in the foundationand must be removed to maintain the grade on the structure,then it must be removed, usually for a minimum of threestructure widths. See Fig. 4. A smaller width of removal cansometimes be used if established by the e

23、ngineer.6.3 Performance of buried structures is enhanced by allow-ing the structure to settle slightly relative to the columns ofearth alongside. Therefore, when significant settlement of theoverall foundation is expected, it is beneficial to provide ayielding foundation under structural plate struc

24、tures.Ayieldingfoundation is one that allows the structure to settle vertically bya greater amount than the vertical settlement of the columns ofearth alongside. It can usually be obtained by placing beneaththe structure a layer of suitable thickness of compressible soil,less densely compacted than

25、the soil alongside. This is particu-larly important on structures with relatively large-radius invertplates.d =12 in./ft. 40 mm/m of fill over pipe, with a 24-in. 600 mm maximum.NOTESection B-B is applicable to all continuous rock foundationsFIG. 3 Foundation Transition Zones and Rock FoundationsFIG

26、. 4 Soft Foundation TreatmentB 789/B 789M 99 (2005)26.4 For all structures with relatively small-radius cornerplates adjacent to large-radius invert plates (such as pipe-arches or underpass structures), excellent soil support must beprovided adjacent to the small-radius corner plates by both thein-s

27、itu foundation and the structural backfill. See Fig. 4 andFig. 5. A yielding foundation must be provided beneath theinvert plates for such structures when soft foundation condi-tions are encountered.7. Bedding7.1 In most cases, structural plate structures may be as-sembled directly on in-situ materi

28、al fine-graded to properalignment and grade. Take care to compact the materialbeneath the haunches prior to placing structural backfill. Forstructures with relatively small-radius corner plates adjacent tolarge-radius invert plates, it is recommended to either shape thebedding to the invert plate ra

29、dius or fine-grade the foundationto a slight v-shape. The soil adjacent to the corners must be ofan excellent quality and highly compacted to accommodate thehigh reaction pressures that can develop at that location. SeeFig. 5.7.2 Structures having a span greater than 15 ft 4.5 m or adepth of cover g

30、reater than 20 ft 6 m should be provided witha shaped bedding on a yielding foundation. The bedding shouldbe shaped to facilitate the required compaction of the structuralbackfill under the haunches. A shaped bedding on a yieldingfoundation is always required under structures with small-radius corne

31、r plates adjacent to large-radius invert plates.7.3 Material in contact with the pipe must not contain rockretained on a 3-in. 75-mm diameter ring, frozen lumps,chunks of highly plastic clay, organic matter, corrosive mate-rial, or other deleterious material.8. Assembly8.1 Structural plate structure

32、s are furnished in componentsof plates and fasteners for field assembly. These componentsare furnished in accordance with Specification B 746/B 746M.Plates are furnished in a 4 ft, 6 in. 1372 mm width andmultiple lengths, preformed and punched for assembling intothe required structure shape, size, a

33、nd length. The plate lengthsform the periphery of the structure. Arrange the single widthand the multiple lengths to allow for staggered, transverseseams to avoid four-plate laps. The fabricator of the structuralplate shall furnish an assembly drawing showing the locationof each plate by width, leng

34、th, thickness, and curvature. Theplates must be assembled in accordance with the fabricatorsdrawing.8.2 For structures with inverts, assembly shall begin withthe invert plates at the downstream end. As the assemblyproceeds upstream, plates that fall fully or partly below themaximum width of the stru

35、cture are lapped over the precedingplates to construct the transverse seams.8.3 Arches on Footings:8.3.1 FootingsArches have no integral invert and usuallyrest in key ways cast into footings. Key ways must beaccurately set to span, line, and grade, as shown in the plansand specifications. When the a

36、rch is not a half circle, the keyway must be angled (rotated) or sized to allow proper entranceof the plate. All pertinent dimensions must be shown on thedrawings.8.3.2 AssemblyFor arch structures, assembly typicallybegins at the upstream end and proceeds downstream, witheach succeeding plate lappin

37、g on the outside of the previousplate. There may be cases where it is more advantageous tostart assembly at some other point along the length of thestructure, such as is in the case where an elbow is involved.During the erection of the ring, plates are not self-supportingand must be temporarily supp

38、orted. If the size of the key waysis such that the plates may move during backfilling, the platesmust be temporarily blocked in the key ways to maintain span.Assemble as few plates as practical. Start with a row of severalplates along both of the footings. Before finishing the bottomrow of plates, s

39、tart at the end of the structure with the next rowof plates. Before reaching the end of the first row of plates, startagain at the end of the structure with the next row of plates.Continue this process until the first ring is closed at its top, andthen continue assembling all rows in this same manne

40、r. Thestructure will have a “stair step” appearance as a result of thisprocedure. This practice helps to hold the structures shape.8.4 Generally, structural plate should be assembled with asfew bolts as practical. These bolts should be placed loose andremain loose until the periphery has been comple

41、ted for severalplate lengths. However, on large structures, it is practical toalign bolt holes during assembly and tighten the bolts tomaintain structure shape. After the periphery of the structure iscompleted for several plate lengths, all bolts may be placed andtightened. Correct any significant d

42、eviation in the structureshape before tightening bolts (see Section 10). It is advisablenot to tighten bolts on the loosely assembled structure within adistance of 30 ft 9 m of where plate assembly is ongoing. Allbolts shall be tightened using an applied torque of between 100and 150 ftlbf 135 and 20

43、5 Nm. It is important not toover-torque the bolts.FIG. 5 Bedding and Corner Zone Treatment for Large-RadiusInvert Plate StructuresB 789/B 789M 99 (2005)38.5 Standard structural plate structures, because of thebolted construction, are not intended to be watertight. Onoccasions where a degree of water

44、tightness is required, it ispractical to introduce a seam sealant tape within the boltedseams. The tape shall be wide enough to effectively cover allrows of holes in plate laps, and of the proper thickness andconsistency to effectively fill all voids in plate laps. Generalprocedures for installing s

45、ealant tape are as follows: Onlongitudinal seams, prior to placing the lapping plate, roll thetape over the seam and work into the corrugations. Do notstretch the tape. Remove any paper backing prior to making upthe joint. Seal transverse seams in a like manner with tape. Atall points where three pl

46、ates intersect, place an additionalthickness of tape for a short distance to fill the void caused bythe transverse seam overlap. It is most practical to punch thetape for bolts with a hot spud wrench or sharp tool.At least twotightenings of the bolts will usually be necessary to accomplishthe requir

47、ed torque.9. Structural Backfill Material9.1 Structural backfill is that material that surrounds thepipe, extending laterally to the walls of the trench or to the fillmaterial for embankment construction, and extending verti-cally from the invert to an elevation of 1 ft 300 mm or18 thespan, whicheve

48、r is greater, over the pipe. The necessary widthof structural backfill depends on the quality of the trench wallor embankment material, the type of material and compactionequipment used for the structural backfill, and in embankmentconstruction, the type of construction equipment used tocompact the

49、embankment fill. The width of structural backfillshall meet the requirements given in Table 1.9.2 Structural backfill material shall be readily compactedsoil or granular fill material. Structural backfill may be exca-vated native material, when suitable, or select material. Selectmaterial such as bank-run gravel, or other processed granularmaterials (not retained on a 3-in. 75-mm diameter ring) withexcellent structural characteristics, is preferred. Desired endresults can be obtained with such material with a minimum ofcompactive effort over
