The pipe sha11 be banded with double galvanized iron or steel wire, having a tensile strength of not less
than 60,000 pounds nor more than iQ,000 pounds per square inch. The spacing of the banding sha11 be as shown
in following table, and the maximum spacing on an� sized pipe and under any pressure will be three (3) inches.
In �vinding, the bands must h�ve sufficient tension to imprese the band slightly into the wood, but bands that
have broken the fibre of the wood will subject the section of pipe to condemnation. �11 sections of pipe over 12
feet in len�th shall ha�-e banding with staples in middle of joint.
The banding shall be coated with a mi:�ture of pure refined asphalt and linseed oil, of proper consistency.
This coating �nnst adhere etron�•ly to the iron and must show no tendency to flow when exposed to the sun in
stlmmer, or to become so brittle as to scale off in winter. All pipe after the bands have been coated, shall be
carefully handled �n order that the coating may be injuied as little as possible.
A11 pipe with esposed banding wire on which rusting or corroding has commenced will be rejected. �11
l�ands, �vhere the coating has been znjured and w•here rusting has not commenced, shall be thoroughly painted
��-�th hot applications of the s�me kind and ��onsistency of coativg material as that put on at the factor3�, as soon

Couplings.
No coupling shall be less than six (6) inches lengthwise with the pipe, and all must be a. true circle trans-
versely' with the axis of the pipe: Cast iron couplings, co necting sections of the wooder� pipe, shail be of a good
quality of gray iron castings, uniform in thickness, smooth outside, free from blow or sand holes, or other imper-
fections. They are to be thorou�hly cleaned and coated, as specified for cast iron pipes. The cast iron must
have a minimum tensile strength of 18,000 pounds per square inch. Wrought iron or lap-welded tubing coupling
will not be allowed.
Sampl�.
All intending bidders will be required to submit samples of the wood pipe they intend to use in this contract
to the City Engineer for approval. Each sample must show � coupling complete, and the fastening of the band-

neer. Bids must state what kind of coupling is to be used.
Standard Specials.
All standard specials shall be made of the same quality of iron as specified for Special Casting pipe, and
shall be coated with a si�nilar preparation of coal tar pitch varnish, or such other coating as may be approved by
the City Engineer. They shall conform to the dimension� qhown on the plans, and shall not vary more than
five per cent. either wa,y from the computed wei�hts. The bells must be a true circle transversely with the axis
��f the pipe. Cast �ron plugs shall be furnished a�nd set where necessary. Where directed these plugs shall be fur-
r�i�hed with yokes put on in a manner satisfactory to the City Engineer. All plugs shall be tapped for four-inch
���rew pipe� and treated as plugs for cast iron pipe.
Special castings, trenching, back-filling and measurement.
Quality of Metal.
All special castings shall be made of cast iron, of good quality, remelted in a cupola or air furnace, and of

ur aci��s fonnd in the soil, free from bubbles or blisters, strongl�� adliesive to the iron under all circumstances, an� �
��•ith no tendenc�� to 8ow when esposed to the sun in sununer, or to become so brittle as to scale off in winter
Thi� coating nhall be appliecl at the foundry where the pipes are �ast. Care shall be e�ercised iii handling the
pipe and fitti�gs up to the time they are laid in the trench so as not to injure the coating. If any rust spo+s
