Determine maximum in place density using nuclear method (ASTM 2922-17). Determine laboratory maximum dry density and optimum moisture content using the Modified I Proctor Method in accordance with ASTM D-1557. Take care to prevent damage to the pipe and its protective coating. 7-09.3(10) Backfilling Trenches I Revise the last paragraph in 7-09.3(10) to read as follows: Place a minimum 12-inch sand cushion between the water main and existing pipelines or other conduits when encountered during construction.
