3.00 BORROS ANCHORS.
3.10 SCOPE OF FIRM'S WORK The scope of the firm's work. associated with Borros anchors was:
- Provide c,onsulting engineering services to assist in planning.
- Select and. purchase Borros anchors.
- Perform as-received inspections.
- Inspect and record installation.
- Tra'in Bechtel personnel in raising and reading procedures.
- Reduce and plot data.
- Assist Bechtel with data interpretation.
- Prepare a report on the instrumentation progran.
3.20 DESCRIPTION OF INSTRU'.!ENTATION A forros anchor consists of two main parts:
(a)
The anchor point and riser rod:
The anchor point is a steel tip with expandable steel anchor prongs, connected to which is the. riser rod.
The riser rod serves two purposes:
- first, it is used to expand the crongs and second, it is utilized as the reference point during reading.
(b)
The sleeve pipe:
The sleeve pipe is 1" standard pipe and i
is used for two purposes.
First, it serves as a drive pipe for driving the anchor point through the soil.
- Second, it serves ~to isolate the riser rod from friction forces arising from the soil movements.
A schematic of the system ir shown in Figure 2.
Information supplied by the manufacturer (A t-5 Co.,
9 Ferguson St.,
Milford, MA), is in-cluded in Appendix A.
Anchor settlement is monitored using optical survey elevations on
-the top of the riser rod.
Changes in elevation provide a record of settlement.
3.30 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE The installation procedure for'Borros anchors is included in Appendix
'B under the heading " Installation Procedure No.
2".
-Installation of Borros anchors began on November 10, 1978 and was completed on December 13, 1978.

November 11, 1979 and inspected thd installation of anchors #3 through 60.
Prior.to that date, anchor #1 and 2 were. installed and inspected.by Bechtel personnel.
The-first anchors were backfilled either with Ottawa sand or with Ottawa sand followed by pea gravel.
However, because either backfill arrangement potentialbr provides a path for water flow that might. affect readings of nearby piezo-meters, Ottawa sand followed-by bentonite slurry was subsecuently used for backfill above the bottom of the sleeve pipe.- An 9ttempt was made to fill the sand and pea gravel spaces with a bentonite
, slurry in order to minimize local pore pressure drainage, but was unsuccessful.
A typical completed installation log is included in Appendix C and installation data are summarized in Table 1.
3.40 -INSTRUMENT INSPECTION On receipt from the manufacturer and prior to installation each Bor-ros anchor was subjected to an as-received inspection.
The inspection included a check on the manufacturer's specification and a check for proper fit of mating parts.
The inspection procedure is included in Appendix B under the heading " Inspection Procedure No. 2".
Instal-lations-were inspected in accordance with " Inspection Procedure No.

5.00 PIEZOMETERS l
5.10 SCOPE OF FIRM'S WORK The scope of the firm's werk kssociated with piezometers was:
- Provide consulting engineering services to assist in planning.
- Select and purchase piezometers.
- Perform as-received inspections of certain piezometers.
- Inspect and record installation of certain piezometers.
- Read piezometers.
- Train Bechtel personnel in reading procedures.
- Reduce and plot data.
- Assist Bechtel with data interpretation
- prepare a report on the instrumentation program.
5.20 DESCRIPTION OF INSTRUMENTATION Piezometers were of two types-, as follows:
5.21 Piezometer Research & Development Corporation Type Piezometers P-1 through P46 were installed by Bechtel personnel between October IG, 1978 and November 6, 1978, prior to the arrival of GZD personnel on the site.
These piezometers were supplied by Piezometer Research & Development Corporation, and consist of a porous plastic cylindrical tip connected to a plastic tube standpipe.
5.22 Geonor M-206 Type Piezometers P-17 through P-48 were installed under the super-vision'of GZD personnel between November 19 and December 13, 1978.
These piezometers were of the "Geonor M-206 Field Piez-ometer" type and were supplied by Roctest Ltd., Montreal.
They consir;t of a hollow brass stem around which are mounted cylind-rical sintered bronze filters.
The top of the stem connects to a plastic tube standpipe.
Figure 4 is'a schematic of-both types of piezometer.
Manufacturers' information'is included in-Appendix-A.
Piezometric, elevation is determined by probing down the standpipe with a capillary reader to-
' locate the water level.in the standpipe.

5.30 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE 5.31 Piezometer Research & Development Corporation Type The manufacturer recommends driving drill casing with a bottom plug, raising the drill casing a short distance, leaving the plug at the bottom of the drillhole and leaving the drill casing in place.
This procedure was followed for the first seven piezometers installed, numbered PZ-1 through PZ-7.
_It was then recognized that this procedure runs a risk a
of excessive soil disturbance and leakage of pore water pres-sure along the outside of the casing, and hence one installation, PZ 8, was attempted without use of the bottom plug, and by withdrawing all drill casing.
However, difficulty.was exper-ienced in constructing the bentonite seal above the sand
.placed around the piezometer tip, as the bentonite pellets were apparently spreading laterally under their own weight.
Piezometers numbered PZ-9 through PZ-16 were therefore installed in the smne manner as PZ-1 through PZ-7.
After a review of the piezometer design during a meeting in Urbana, Illinois on Nov-ember 7, 1978, no further piezometers of this type were installed.
All subsequent piezometers were of the Geonor M-206 type.
A typical completed installation log of a Piezometer Research
& Development Corporation type of piezometer is included in Appendix C, and installation data are summarized in Table 3.
1 5.32 Geonor M-206 Type The installation procedure for Geonor M-206 type piezometers is included in Appendix B under the heading " Installation Pro-cedure No.
1".
The manufacturer's normal procedure of driving the piezometer-into the ground relies on the effectiveness of ti a seal between soil and outside of drill rod.
This assumption is viable for installation in a soft clay, but not if the soil contains a eignificant percentage of granular material, and hence piezometers were installed using a bentonite seal pro-cedure and granular backfill.
A typical completed installation log is included'in Appendix C, and installation data are summa-rized in Table 3.
5.40 INSTRUMENT INSPECTION The inspection procedure is included in Appendix B under the heading
" Inspection Procedure No.

7.00 PIPE-PROFILE SETTLEMENT GAGE 7.10 SCOPE OF FIRM'S WORK The scope of the firm's work associated with the pipe-profile set-lement gage was:
Provide consulting engineering services to assist in planning
- Select and purchase pipe-profile settlement gage
- Perform as-received inspection.
- Perfone as-received spot check calibration
- Make readings of vertical profiles along selected pipelines
- Reduce and tabulate data
- Assist Bechtel with data interpretation
- Prepare a report of the instrumentation program 7.20 DESCRIPTION OF INSTRUMENTATION The Nold Aquaducer Profile Settlement Gage consists of four major components:
(a)
A rubber balloon encased in a sealed probe.
(b)
An air pressure gage and manual air pressure pump contained
.within the readout unit.
(c)
A standpipe and vertical scale for indicating the level of the upper liquid surface.
(d)
A liquid filled tube and an air pressure tube linking the probe and readout unit.
A achematic.of the system.is shown in Figure 6.
In op' ration, the e
readout unit is positioned at an elevation slightly higher than the highest point of the pipeline to be surveyed.
The probe is then in-serted into the pipeline by pushing with rigid rods, by pulling with a cord from the other end of the pipeline, or by having a man inside the pipeline dragging the probe.
Air pressure is then applied to expand the balloon a certain amount as measured by the vertical standpipe.
The required air pressure is noted and through use of the known unit weight of the liquid linking the probe a ' readout unit, the difference in vertical height, hence the pipeline invert elevation, is computed.
Manufacturer's.information is included in Appendix A.

A copy.of this procedure is included.in Appendix B.
~
7.40 READING:AND DATA REDUCTION PROCEDURE i
The basic reading procedure is detailed in " Procedure for Reading I
Nold Settlement Gage - Reading Procedure No..5",
a copy of which ll 1s-included in Appendix B.
4 I
Of key importance in-the reading procedure was the positioning of the probe with: respect to the pipeline invert.
In.some cases, it
}
was possible to observe the. probe visually directly from the readout i
station or by havingJa man:in the pipeline.
However, for many cases i'
this was impractical due to the size of the pipelines.
On some of the'early pipeline surveys, a closed circuit-television system was used in accordance with arrangements made by Bechtel.
The camera was fitted on.to a small sled and. pulled through -the pipeline with the probe.
At each reading-interval, the probe was observed either visually or with the camera, and readings were made until 3 sets of 4.
data,. consistent to 0.2 inches, were obtained.
This system proved j
cumbersome to operate and was abandoned after the initial attempts.
Table No. 5.11sts all pipeline surveys and what was done to insure j' '
the positioning of the probe.
I All field data were recorded on Form NS-R-1 and transfer 1-ed to Form f.
NS-R-2 for reduction.
The method of. data reduction was as outlined on'the form.~
The three most consistent sets of data were averaged i
to determine.the " vertical distance'to probe".
!~
Vertical elevation data for all surveyed pipelinos were provided by
}
Bechtel.-
I["
Figure No. 7.shows'the location of surveyed p'ipelines and the.
locations of the readout points in the vicinity of the Diesel Genera-
[
tor Building.
All distance' measurements are referenced to the edge i~-
of the pipeline'at the readout point.
In' determining the plan-position of,these measuring points, it should be appreciated that some of-these-reported distance measurements are not.along a horiz-
- F ontal.line.,
f The gage provides a measurement-of elevation' difference between'the
?
' probe ~and:the readout-box, referred to1herein as H.

the only purpose of the gage is to determine difference in H values, f
not the absolute.value of H.
On this basic we can make the following statements with regard to accuracy of measurements made to date:
(a)
The absolute value of any reported elevation is not more accurate than the optical survey.
(b)
We estimate that the reported relative. elevations (i.e.
shape of vertical profile),.as measured ur'rg the gage alone, are accurate to approximately +0.02 leet.

input and output circuits are electrically isolated from each l*
other and from the coil assembly housing, making them O
usab!e directly in floating or ground return systems. DC indicators, recorders, and control systems can usually be I
driven directly by the large DC output. The core, when l
i displaced axially within the coil assembly, produces a volt-age change in the output directly proportional to the g
displacement.

All of the gages in this group require that casings or it was quite obvious that the principle of this instrument pipes be carried up vertically through the fill as construction was sound and worthwhile.

GENERAL i
i The principles employed by the DeAerator were discovered in 1970. A new method of mechanically generating the phe-nomenon of cavitation was employed to literally beat gaseous and volatile components out of their dissolved state to amazingly high purity levels. Prior to the discovery, the generally accepted method was to boil water under.&cuum.
Usually the results were unreliable, and typically 4 liters of water to a S PPM DO purity would take approximately45 minutes to prepar's. With the DeAerator,6 liters of cold, ready to-use 0.6 PPM DO water can be produced in 5 minutes wiO4out the use of heet.
A DeAerator System is currently available whidi produces 1 liter per minute of water deaerated to the above purity on a continuous or upon demand basis. It is completely automatic and can be applied to systems requiring unlimited capar-ity and purity.

10 Running Time-minutes NOTES The necessary moderate 25 Tort vacuum required for operation is obtained through use of a supplied laboratory type of aspirator. This vacuum is attained at sea level conditions when tho' water employed is at a pressure
{
of 350 kPa (50 psi) and at a temperature of 1316 C (55-600F) with a consumption of 15 liters per minute.
0 Under these conditions, the DeAerator will reduce the dissolved air content to 0.6 ppm (95% removal) within four minutes after filling. Lower purity levels may be attained with longer running time.
Through use of vacuum pumps having sufficient capacity, the DeAerator will reduce the carbon dioxide con.
tent in water from 3500 to 5 ppm in five minutes, and ammonia content to 2.8 parts per billion in twenty minutes. Water to absolute dissolved oxygen purity may be produced and held under pressure without fear of contamination regardless of the time factor through use of the Continuous DeAerator System.
