4 1. General Information It is the intent of these guidelines to establish the minimum standards, which must be met during the process of plan preparation for The District. It is not the intent of these guidelines to limit the efficiency or creativity of the design consultant. Instead, these guidelines have been put in place to ensure the District continues to provide the same high quality plans and construction documents that everyone is accustomed to using. Additionally these guidelines will continue to develop as necessary. Please submit your questions and comment via Page 4 of 60

5 2.010 Definitions 2. Definitions CADD Deliverables: An electronic representation of drawings required at the Preliminary Plan, Plan Submittals and As-built Documents in compliance with these Plan Preparation Guidelines and the Drawing Submittal Schedule as outlined by the District representative Survey Corridor: Strip Map: The Survey Corridor is defined as the area 60 feet in all directions of the proposed alignment shown on the design study provided, or as delineated by a District representative for the project. A CADD drawing developed to provide an accurate basis from which the District or its agents may produce sewer construction plans and legal documents for properties affected by a project design Limited Stripmap A CADD drawing developed to provide an accurate basis from which the District or its agents may produce sewer construction plans, but is not of sufficient quality that legal documents can be produced for the taking of Easements or Temporary Construction Easement. A limited strip map can be prepared for projects that are located entirely within street right-of-way, and when easement and/or temporary construction easement rights will not need to be acquired from adjacent properties. The District must approve the use of a limited strip map during fee negotiations. Sufficient property control is required to establish the existing right-of-way lines. Lot lines and owner information can be obtained from the City or County Assessors information Topographic Map: Submittals: A CADD drawing representing the earth s surface and existing features, indicated by a series of lines and symbols. The purpose of the Topographic Map (Topo Map) is to provide a detailed drawing for use in the design and construction of a sewer project. The map includes any existing features or obstacles within the Survey Corridor that might impact the sewer design. The map will be in turn be used in the preparation of sewer plans. Aerial photos are not acceptable as Topo Maps. Plan Submittals shall reflect requirement set forth in Attachment A. Page 5 of 60

6 As-Built Documents: The District s final record of a project developed by manually marking up final constructions documents to reflect the actual final field verified horizontal locations and elevations of improvements built during construction Control Basis / Traverse Baseline: Below is the control basis for all projects on which plans are prepared for the District: HORIZONTAL DATA All horizontal data provided will be in State Plane Coordinates Missouri East Zone, NAD 83(HARN). Since the District requires State Plane Coordinates to be the basis for all projects, GPS will most likely be utilized to establish survey control. Due to the positional accuracy limits of GPS Equipment, special consideration and specific survey techniques will need to be employed in order to meet the accuracy standards of an Urban Class Survey established by the Missouri Board of Architects, Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors (20 CSR ). The District will periodically check control established for projects and will reject control that does not meet Urban Class Survey Standards. MODOT now offer the use of continually operating base stations. These systems have shown to be an effective way of doing Real Time Kinematic (RTK) surveys. When utilizing these systems the vendor name and date of survey will need to be indicated on the Stripmap. VERTICAL DATA Vertical Datum shall be referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 1988) and provide a conversion to NVGD 29 (A.K.A. U.S.G.S.). (NVGD 29 is the datum used for the St. Louis County & St. Louis City Benchmark Books). NVGD 29 may be submitted with conversion to NAVD 1988 provided it has been previously approved by an MSD representative. GPS can be used for vertical control but shall require redundancy to establish elevations. (i.e. double occupancy of control points with a minimum of 4 hours between occupations). Differential leveling shall be used to adjust elevations of control points set by GPS. Page 6 of 60

7 Digital Signatures and Seals: The digital signature must be unique to, and under the sole control of the person using it; it must also be capable of verification and be linked to a document in such manner that the digital signature is invalidated if any data on the document is altered. For more information see: Missouri Board for Architects, Professional Engineers, Professional Land Surveyors, and Landscape Architects, Chapter 3, Board Rule 20 CSR (3) A tutorial video on how to electronically sign a.pdf document utilizing Adobe Acrobat can be found on the Missouri Div. of Professional Registration website: Page 7 of 60

12 Text Guidelines: Location Font Name Substitution Cover sheet Title bold.shx SansSerif.shx(bold) Subdivision Name/City Block Ha.shx RomanC.shx When entering text into a drawing the text style shall be simplex. For existing text the height shall be 100 guide and shall be placed on the layer which the text refers to, for example any text used to call out fencing would be placed on the fence layer. All text other than existing text shall be placed on the layer corresponding to the Leroy guide, for example text which is 120 Leroy guide is placed on layer 120. For proposed text the height normally used will be 100 guide. The table below indicates what height text shall be entered in an AutoCAD drawing to insure text is the proper size for a given plot scale when the drawing is plotted. For example, when the plot scale is 1=20 and you want the plotted text height to be LeRoy guide 100 you would enter the text height as 2.0. Text Height Table Letter Guides Plot Scales LeRoy Guide LeRoy Guide LeRoy Guide LeRoy Guide LeRoy Guide LeRoy Guide ACAD variable settings DIMSCALE Setting LTSCALE Setting Text Equation For scales and text heights not listed above use the following equation Drawing text height = Plot height * Plot Scale For example if you want the plotted text height to be 0.1 (100 guide) and your plot scale is 200 the drawing text height would be 20. Drawing text height = 0.1 * 200 = 20 Page 12 of 60

13 4. Right of Way and Survey Guidelines This section is intended to give the user a detailed description of the process of developing Right of Way and survey documents related to the design, easement acquisition and construction of sewers for the District. Due to the broad range of scenarios associated with the types of projects done by the District, this section may not cover every scenario and the District s representative may have specific instructions not covered here Strip Map Guidelines The following is intended to aid in the developing of a Strip Map. The Example Strip Map Drawings (Appendix K), along with the guidelines shown throughout this manual shall be adhered to when preparing a Strip Map. The Example Strip Map shows the minimum information that will be required on a Strip Map. The purpose of the Strip Map is to provide an accurate basis from which The District or its agents may produce sewer construction plans and legal documents for properties affected by a project design. The Strip Map shall show every parcel in its entirety, which falls within any portion of the Survey Corridor. Right-of-Ways and large parcels shall be shown far enough beyond the Survey Corridor in order to adequately define them General Strip Map Guidelines 1. Establish horizontal control within 50 to 200 feet of the proposed route. Note: The baseline shall not be located on the proposed route, as this control is expected to remain throughout the construction phase, if at all possible. The horizontal control shall meet the accuracy standards of an Urban Class Survey as defined in the Current Minimum Standards for Property Boundary Surveys (20 CSR ). 2. The baseline shall be monumented with a Permanent type survey monument or cross on concrete within the Right of Way of public streets, (concrete must be in good condition, do not use concrete that appears to be in an area of road repair). (Point number assigned to monument to match field notes along with the Strip Map designation). These points will need to survive for many years and special care shall be taken to see that they do. 3. Establish Project Benchmarks by differential leveling (field notes signed and sealed by a Professional Land Surveyor shall be submitted with the Strip Map no trigonometric levels will be accepted), with descriptions near the proposed route at 0.5-mile intervals (minimum of two). Benchmarks shall be established from control as defined in section At least two published benchmarks must be utilized. Established Project Benchmarks shall be stable and accessible in an area not to be disturbed. Iron pipes/bars are not acceptable benchmarks. Project Benchmarks shall be set so they remain in existence throughout the entire project. 4. For the entire Survey Corridor locate sufficient property control to establish Subdivision Boundaries, Interior lot lines, Large Parcels, and Right of Way (plus centerline of State and County Right of Ways), to establish a Best Fit of Record Information with the actual field survey. An individual boundary survey of each lot is not required. In addition to the above monumentation, it will be required that a search for monumentation along the Page 13 of 60

14 proposed route be conducted. Any such monumentation shall be located and shown on the stripmap. 5. Research all assessor maps, deeds, subdivision plats, County Road Plans, State Highway Plans, etc. as required. Much of this will be taken care of by getting Easement Search Reports and Title commitments as outlined in Attachment A included in the Fee Proposal. 6. All parcels that fall within the Survey Corridor shall be labeled with bearings, distances, curve data, etc. in order to fully describe both record and calculated (if necessary) dimensions of the entire parcel. See the Example Strip Map Drawings (Appendix K). 7. Record and Calculated: All distances are considered record [within ½ foot] unless noted as calculated (C). All bearings are shown as both record (R) and calculated (C). 8. Surveyor s Report shall accompany the strip map. This report shall give a general account how the strip map s subdivision boundaries, interior lot lines, large Parcels, and Right of Way line were established and any assumptions that were made in the process Strip Map Drafting Guidelines 1. The District will not accept any CADD drawing in which the Universal Coordinate System (UCS), North Orientation, and Basis of Grid do not all agree with each other. 2. Strip Maps will conform to the CADD Guidelines herein established. Some additional layers and blocks are associated with the strip map, see the Example Strip Map Drawings (Appendix K). 3. If Strip Map consists of multiple pages the cover Sheet shall include the following: a. Title of District Project b. Index of Sheets c. Map Index, if more than two sheets (possible to combine with Location Map) d. Location Map North Arrow & Approximate Scale e. Benchmark Descriptions Published and Project f. General Notes g. Source of Record Information h. Basis of Bearing i. Legend j. Disclaimers, If Any k. References System to establish State Plane Coordinates 4. Three point ties of all Baseline Points a.

Sheet reference, if all ties are provided on an individual sheet Page 14 of 60

15 5. Drawing Scale choices are 1 =20, 1 =30, 1 =40, and 1 =50. The District Representative must approve any other scales. 6. Owners List 7. All easements provided by Easement Search Reports, Title Reports, Recorded Plats, and/or other sources. 8. Meet the District s Control Basis & Traverse Baseline as defined in section The District may request that a project be tied to a previous project. In this case, a minimum of two control points from the previous project must be collected on State Plane Coordinates. A relationship between the collected coordinates for the present project and the coordinates noted from the previous project shall be shown on the strip map Strip Map Support Information The following information will be submitted along with the Strip Map as support information: Electronic Files Shall be submitted per section Field notes (See Appendix M for Sample Field notes) Traverse Notes, Location of monumentation Bench Loop (Signed & Sealed) Description of Known Benchmarks Description of Project Benchmarks Original Three Point Tie Sketches Hard copies of additional Documents acquired to complete survey Property Conveyances Easement deeds PDF files may be accepted as directed by the District. Assessor s Map GRS information used, if applicable Easement Search Reports, Title Reports Limited Stripmaps Guidelines The intended and only use of the Limited Stripmap is for projects or portions of projects that lie totally and without question, within existing street right-of-way.

The consultant will be responsible for all design services, including municipal/agency coordination, engineering calculations, strip map and topography surveys, soil investigation, construction document preparation, right-of-way acquisition document preparation, permit applications and all other services required to obtain bids for construction. The scope of the project will be indicated in the Request For Proposal (RFP). The scope may vary from a general idea of the problem to a detailed design study. A list of the basic services to be provided for each design phase may also be included in the RFP for the consultants reference. The consultant is to review these services to assure that provisions are included in the contract for these and all other design services. Note that engineering services during construction may also be included in the scope of the project Design Services to be Provided Based on the information received, the Consultant is responsible for the design of the project including length, sizes, alignment, etc. The sizes and alignments shall be checked and verified but the scope shall be as indicated in the RFP. If the consultant disagrees with the alignment or sizes of sewers, or channels, the concerns shall be discussed with the District prior to completing the design. If the Consultant believes further special investigation and/or preliminary design work is required prior to proceeding with the final design, these costs shall be included in the proposal and identified as such. This will include any investigations up or downstream of the project, as required. Additionally, unless otherwise directed by the District, the Consultant as part of the contract shall do all of the following services. 1. All work is to conform to the current Plan Preparation Guidelines, the Request for Proposal, and the Contract. 2. Plans and technical specifications are to be prepared by a registered Professional Engineer licensed in the State of Missouri and sealed in accordance with State Statutes. 3. Design and prepare detailed construction plans, specifications, quantities and cost estimates. Plans, technical specifications, and pay quantities are to conform to the District s current Rules and Regulations and Engineering Design Requirements for Sanitary Sewerage and Storm Water Facilities, and MSD Standard Construction Specifications. 4. Coordinate work with the District s Project Manager in accordance with the Coordination Schedule With The District. Items to be completed at each review stage: a. It is the responsibility of the Consultant to set up coordination meetings with the District s Project Manager and meet all review schedule dates as required. b. Conference memorandum of items discussed and/or decisions made, with the District, municipalities, utility companies, or other agencies, are to be submitted by the Consultant to the District s Project Manager within a week.

Work required to change and/or redesign the plans due to apparent utility or existing sewer conflicts, agency requirements or the District Plan Review is included in the initial fee. 7. Determine proper pipe and/or channel size, alignment, and length. Final recommendations shall be approved by the District. Prepare a floodplain study if required. The 100 year water surface elevation must be evaluated to assure that channel improvements do not result in an increased 100 year water surface elevation. 8. Conduct field alignments and level surveys in order to correctly represent all of the conditions that would be encountered at or near the project during construction of work in accordance with District requirements. The survey shall extend both upstream and downstream a sufficient distance as required to ensure proper design and transitions. The minimum Survey Corridor width shall be 120 feet unless otherwise approved by the District. Meet the District s Control Basis & Traverse Baseline as defined in section All Survey work shall conform to District standards presented in the current Plan Preparations Guidelines. 9. Adequate soil borings to determine rock excavation, special pipe bedding, shoring requirements, slope stability and other soil characteristics required to complete the design. The approximate number of borings and/or corings and depths to be completed shall be indicated in the proposal and may vary in number, depending on the project type, location, and available information. The location of all soil borings shall be DIRECTLY above the proposed alignment and tied to the survey vertically and horizontally unless otherwise approved by District Project Manager. Copies of the boring logs and geotechnical information shall be submitted and Page 24 of 60

25 become the property of the District. The geotechnical report shall indicate the expected limits of Class A and Class B Excavation and other pertinent design information. 10. Soil boring shall be performed in the presence of an experienced geologist or qualified field representative to prepare preliminary boring logs. Existing geology in the project area must be researched and documented prior to preparing the boring plan. Provide Percent Recovery for all rock corings. Borings shall extend ten (10) feet below the proposed sewer line if rock is not encountered in order to evaluate the rock profile. Contact the District Project Manager before mobilizing for drilling so a District representative can observe the drilling operation. 11. All calculations and work shall be submitted, titled, and dated. All work is to be neat, legible and submitted electronically. A digitally signed and sealed (see ) file in portable document format (PDF). Work shall include but not be limited to the following: a. Final hydraulic calculations based on actual sizes and slopes used. b. Structural calculations. c. Quantity calculations. d. Earthwork calculations. The District may supply preliminary hydraulic calculations and flood studies. These are to be reviewed and verified by the consultant. 12. Coordinates are to be shown for all sewer structures, a minimum of two survey control points, and a minimum of two 3-point tie details per plan sheet. 13. In plan view, indicate top and flowline elevations of existing structures. 14. In profile view, dimension proposed length of reaches and determine proposed grade from centerline of structures. Indicate station and flow line elevation at center of structures. 15. Where crossing pavement is required, indicate location of nearest joints if sewer is to be installed in open cut. If possible, design crossing perpendicular to paving and under one section of the pavement. Verify with the appropriate agency if a tunnel is required. 16. Granular fill in trenches within street right-of-ways shall not include the top 24 inches in lawn areas. 17. Concrete design shall use the working stress design method or the alternate Ultimate Strength design presented in the Corps of Engineers Manual EM Concrete walls with two rows of reinforcing steel shall be a minimum of ten inches thick.
