c. Joint deflections shall not exceed pipe manufacturer's recommendations. <br />3. Manning's Roughness Coefficient ("n" Value) <br />"n" value for PVC and HDPE pipe shall be 0.010. <br />"n" value for concrete pipe shall be 0.013. <br />"n" value for metal pipe is specified in Appendix I. <br />4. Materials <br />Wastewater pipe designed for open channel flow shall be PVC or ductile iron. <br />Wastewater pipe designed for pressurized flow may be PVC, ductile iron or solid wall <br />HDPE. <br />Pipe networks in streets shall be, designed parallel to street centerlines whenever <br />possible. Skewed pipe alignments are discouraged. <br />5. Buoyant Forces <br />The effect of buoyant forces shall be checked for all pipes used below the normal <br />water table. Buoyant forces shall not be greater than the weight of the pipe and <br />backfill. <br />F. Pump and Lift Station Design <br />Public pump and lift stations must be identified in the City's Wastewater Master Plan or <br />otherwise deemed appropriate by the City. Pump and lift stations require specialized <br />planning, engineering and specifications not specifically addressed in detail by this <br />manual or the Standards and Specifications. Stations shall meet the specific design and <br />maintenance requirements of the City of Eugene in addition to the basic requirements of <br />the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) pump station design regulations <br />available at www.deg.state.or.us. <br />Consultants must be experienced in the design and construction of large (1 MGD +) <br />sewage lift stations. An interdisciplinary team is expected to address the multiple <br />disciplines necessary to design and deliver the station. A pre -design report that outlines <br />the scope of the project from design through construction is required and shall be <br />approved by the City of Eugene. The pre -design report shall include, but not be limited <br />to, the following information: <br />Public Improvement Design Standards Manual, 2016 Page 2-48 <br />
