History of Edge Drain Failure Rates
Quality Control and Quality Assurance Specifications for Cross Drains,Storm Drains, and Culverts Were
Initiated in the Early 2000’s
Section 701.03.08
701.03.08 Testing of Pipe. The Engineer will visually inspect all pipe. The Department
may require camera or mandrel testing, KM 64-114, for any pipe when deflection,
cracking, joint faulting, or any other interior damage is suspected. If the pipe shows damage,
repair or replace as the Engineer directs. If the pipe shows deflection of 10 percent or greater,
remove and replace the pipe. If the pipe shows deflection greater than 5 percent but less than
10 percent, the Department will allow the pipe to remain in place at a reduced unit price. Do
not pave over any pipe until inspection and any required testing is completed. When paving
will not be delayed by the wait, test pipe 30 days or more after backfilling is completed.
Developed in 2000 during QC/QA specifications, has not been widely enforced

Amount of Deflection (%) Payment
0.0 to 5.0 100% of the Unit Bid Price
5.1 to 7.5 75% of the Unit Bid Price
7.6 to 8.5 50% of the Unit Bid Price

PIPE DEFLECTION DETERMINED BY MANDREL TESTING
Amount of Deflection (%) Payment
0.0 to 5.0 100% of the Unit Bid Price
5.1 to 9.9 50% of the Unit Bid Price

The Department will consider payment as full compensation for all work
required under this section.

AASHTO SECTION 30.5.6NEW INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS FOR HDPE PIPE(AS ADOPTED BY THE AASHTO SUBCOMMITTEE ON BRIDGES AND STRUCTURES – JUNE 29, 2005)
� All pipes shall undergo inspection during and after installation.
� Final inspections shall be conducted no sooner than 30 days after completion of installation and final fill.
� The pipe shall be evaluated to determine whether the internal diameter of the barrel has been reduced more than 5 percent when measurednot less than 30 days following completion of installation.
� For locations where pipe deflection exceeds 5 percent of the inside diameter, an evaluation shall be conducted by the Contractor andsubmitted to the Engineer for review and approval considering the severity of the deflection, structural integrity, environmental conditions, and the design service life of the pipe. Pipe remediation or replacement shall be required for locations where the evaluation finds that the deflection could be problematic. For locations where pipe deflection exceeds 7.5 percent of the inside diameter, remediation or replacement of the pipe is required.
� Installed pipe deflections that exceed 5 percent of the initial inside diameter may indicate that the installation was substandard. appropriate remediation, if any, will depend upon the severity of the deflection.
� In all pipe installations, at least 10 percent of the total number of pipe runs representing at least 10 percent of the total project footage on the project shall be randomly selected by the Engineer and inspected for deflection. Also, as determined by the 100 percent visual inspection in Section 30.5.6.1, all areas in which deflection can be visually detected shall be inspected for deflection.
� All pipes shall undergo inspection during and after installation.
� Final inspections shall be conducted no sooner than 30 days after completion of installation and final fill.

AASHTO SECTION 26.5.7NEW INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS FOR CMP
(AS ADOPTED BY THE AASHTO SUBCOMMITTEE ON BRIDGES AND STRUCTURES – JUNE 29, 2005)
� CMP shall be inspected after placement in the trench, as required during backfilling, and after completion of installation to ensure that final installation conditions allow the pipe to perform as designed.
� Final internal inspections shall be conducted on all buried CMP installations to evaluate issues that may affect long term performance. Final inspections shall be conducted no sooner than 30 days after completion of installation and final fill.
� It should be noted that the AASHTO Flexible Culvert Liaison Committee has been directed to write deflection criteria for inclusion in the installation specification for CMP next year.

(AS ADOPTED BY THE AASHTO SUBCOMMITTEE ON BRIDGES AND STRUCTURES – JUNE 29, 2005)
� Internal inspections shall be conducted on all buried rigid pipeinstallations to evaluate issues that may affect long-term performance, such as cracks, joint quality and alignment. Inspections shall be conducted no sooner than 30 days after completion of installation and final fill.
� Hairline longitudinal cracks in the crown or invert indicate that the steel has accepted part of the load. Cracks equal to or less than 0.01 in. (0.25 mm) in width are considered minor and only need to be noted in the inspection report.
� Inspection records for pipes with crack widths exceeding 0.01 in. (0.25 mm), shall be kept on file for monitoring conditions during subsequent inspections. Crack measurements and photographs shall be taken for monitoring conditions during subsequent inspections.

Conclusions
1. Laser deflection provides significantly more
Information than camera inspection alone.
2. Must set quality control video specifications
for all drainage structures.
3. Must set deflection limits on flexible
structures and crack limits on rigid structures.
4. Must Inspect, clean, and repair existing structures.
5. Reevaluate drainage specifications, and make
changes where necessary to insure the long-
term performance of the roadway system.
