    Laser Profiling of Storm Lines

Notice to contractors who are currently working on commercial public and private infrastructure improvements:

Over the past few weeks there has been questions asked about the videotaping storm lines before your final inspection. The City of Orlando is now requiring contractors to laser profile their storm lines instead of videotaping the lines as we have in the past. Our Engineering Standards Manual (ESM), clearly states that the most current FDOT practices supersede what is in the ESM. It does not matter when you started your project, everyone must adhere to the new requirement. The contractor is responsible for making arrangements to have your lines laser profiled.

Please refer to the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Standards Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction 2007 Section 430 for the most current laser profiling requirements. For more information, please visit FDOT’s website at www.dot.state.fl.us/Specificationsoffice/2007BK/430.pdf

Special note: As noted in the FDOT Spec Book, any pipe deflection over 5%, the pipe must be removed and replaced from structure to structure, no exceptions. requirement. The contractor is responsible for making arrangements to have your lines laser profiled.
