20、te, clay and natural stone, access to underground services for maintenance and other purposes can be obtained, and reinstatement carried out, in such a manner that the repair does not show or leave a scar, as would be the case with other paving materials or with a mixture of different materials. Whe
21、re the reinstatement of an opening is to be carried out, to achieve the best results with a minimum of subsequent settlement, it is essential that following removal of the concrete, clay or natural stone, the resulting trench is adequately filled. NOTE 2The New Roads and Street Works Act 1991 1 and
22、the associated Highways Authorities and Utilities Committee (HAUC) Specification for the Reinstatement of Openings in Highways 2 specify requirements for the filling of trenches. 2)In preparation. BS 7533-11:2003 2 BSI 3 October 2003 4.2 Opening of surface layer 4.2.1 Opening of concrete block pavin
23、g, flags, slabs, clay pavers and natural stone setts in flexibly laid pavements To open an area of concrete block paving and flags, clay pavers or natural stone setts and slabs in flexibly laid pavements, as much sand as possible should be removed from the joints surrounding the first unit using a b
24、ricklayers small trowel or other suitable tool. Using suitable levers, or a proprietary “extractor” the first unit should be levered out. Once the first unit is removed subsequent units should be lifted clear. This method should be continued until the required area of paving has been removed. Units
25、adjacent to the area to be loosened should be tapped down with the shaft of a hammer or other suitable tool. NOTE 1The passing of a vibrating plate over the surface of the units adjacent to the opening can assist in breaking the interlock. NOTE 2Concrete blocks and flags, flexible laid clay pavers a
26、nd natural stone sett paving and slabs, which have been laid and trafficked for a period of time, or which have been sealed, can be tightly locked together so that it is difficult to remove the first few units. Where this is the case, one or more units may be broken to gain access before carefully r
27、emoving the remaining units over the required area. However, this requires replacement units for those that have been broken. Lifted units should be carefully cleaned with a stiff brush or steel scraper and stacked to one side of the trench in a position that does not restrict access but is convenie
28、nt for subsequent reinstatement. For paving flags and natural stone slabs, timber spacing pieces should be placed between units to minimize surface damage. The laying course material should then be removed and any excavation should proceed as required. 4.2.2 Opening of flags, slabs, clay pavers and
29、natural stone setts in rigidly laid pavements For flags and stone slabs, great care should be taken in removing the units to avoid surface and/or edge damage. Joints around one unit should be removed using a power saw and the unit removed by vertical lift methods, e.g. vacuum. If this fails to relea
30、se the unit a hammer and chisel should be used to break open the surface. The units should be stored in a location that does not restrict access but is convenient for subsequent reinstatement. Timber spacing pieces should be placed between flags and slabs to prevent surface damage. For rigidly laid
31、clay products and natural stone setts and slabs, the mortar joint and pointing should be broken out from around the units using a hammer and chisel. The units should be lifted using lifting bars or proprietary tools. Where possible, all mortar and concrete from the bed face and sides of the unit sho
32、uld be carefully removed using a stiff brush or steel scraper. The units should be stored in a location that does not restrict access but is convenient for subsequent reinstatement. 4.3 Reinstatement of foundation layer in trench and openings 4.3.1 Existing construction Type 1 granular sub-base mate
33、rial or roadbase material should be used to reinstate the foundation layer. NOTEIt is necessary to use new material because of the variable nature of excavated material, and the difficulties associated with its replacement. The Highways Agencys Specification for Highway Works 3 defines the categorie
34、s of foundation materials. Reinstatement should be carried out by infilling layers that are less than 100 mm thick. Each layer should be thoroughly compacted to the same degree as the surrounding area using a plate or trench vibrator. Any other existing paving materials should be replaced with equiv
35、alent depths of new material. When complete, the top of the reinstatement should be compacted using a plate or trench vibrator so that it is level or not more than 6 mm higher with the existing sub-base or roadbase construction. BS 7533-11:2003 BSI 3 October 2003 3 4.3.2 Foamed concrete Where reinst
36、atement is to be carried out using foamed concrete, all excavated backfill material should be removed from site. NOTE 1With this method, the only materials required are the foamed concrete, laying course material and units. Where the foamed concrete is to be produced on site, this should be carried
37、out using trailer-mounted equipment conforming to the Highways Authorities and Utilities Committee (HAUC) Specification for the Reinstatement of Openings in Highways 2. NOTE 2The foamed concrete may be prepared off-site and delivered in a truck-mounted mixer. The foamed concrete should be placed up
38、to the top of the sub-base or roadbase (whichever is higher) and screeded so that it is level. NOTE 3The material is self-leveling and flows to fill the void, covering the newly exposed or installed utilities. Standard foamed concrete should be allowed to cure for between 12 h to 18 h before surfaci
39、ng materials are replaced. NOTE 4Where fast cure foamed concrete is used, reinstatement of the laying course and surface layer may take place sooner. Foamed concrete should not be used in place of the structural layers in heavily trafficked routes where it is necessary for the roadbase to be stronge
40、r than the foamed concrete. 4.4 Reinstatement of surfacing 4.4.1 Concrete block paving, flags, slabs, clay pavers and natural stone setts in flexibly laid pavements 4.4.1.1 Preparation before laying Where units at the open edge of the reinstatement and the underlying laying course sand have been dis
41、turbed during the trench opening and reinstatement work, the affected units (generally those within 150 mm of the edge of the excavation) should be removed as described in 4.2.1. These should be stored in a manner appropriate to the product such that no damage can occur to them, e.g. flags should be
42、 stored on timber pieces. The existing laying course sand should be cut back, removed and discarded. Any caked jointing sand should be removed from the exposed unit edges and discarded. Sufficient fresh laying course material should be added so that it is approximately two-thirds of the intended fin
43、ished thickness. The laying course material should be fully compacted using a plate vibrator to a level approximately 5 mm to 10 mm below the top of the adjacent compacted sand. Additional sand should then be spread over the area and trimmed to stand slightly proud of adjacent sand to allow for bedd
44、ing in of the units. NOTEThe overall trimmed height is dependent on the type of sand used. A notched screeding board should be used to achieve a slightly cambered profile over the width of the trench, which counters any tendency for the laying course to settle with trafficking. Alternatively, the sa
45、me profile may be achieved by setting three screed rails, e.g. appropriate lengths of non-flexible gas pipe, into the sand along the length of the trench. In this case, the central rail should be positioned higher than the two on either side, so that the finished level is higher by no more than 6 mm
46、 at its edges and 12 mm at its centre. 4.4.1.2 Laying of concrete block paving, clay pavers and setts The original cleaned units should be re-laid in the pattern specified in accordance with BS 7533-3 for concrete block paving or clay pavers or BS 7533-7 for setts. A rubber hammer should be used to
47、lightly tap the final units into place. Once the units have been re-laid and bonded into the existing pavement, compaction and joint filling of the surface should be carried out in accordance with BS 7533-3 for concrete block paving or clay pavers or BS 7533-7 for setts. After completion and vibrati
48、on of the units the cambered surface should then be left proud by approximately 2 mm at the edges and 5 mm at the centre. NOTEWith trafficking during subsequent months this camber will compact to a level surface. BS 7533-11:2003 4 BSI 3 October 2003 4.4.1.3 Laying of flags and slabs Flags and slabs
49、should be laid in accordance with the recommendations given in BS 7533-4. Where areas were sealed or where sand joint stabilizer was used before reinstatement, then the same material should be applied to the reinstated area immediately after the installation of the jointing sand. NOTEOnce the process of reinstatement and repair is complete, where the original surfacing material has been used, the reinstatement becomes undetectable after a short period of weathering. 4.4.2
