THIS WORK SHALL CONSIST OF FURNISHING AND INSTAWNG CONDUIT WITH MULTI-CELL INNERDUCT COMPLETE AND READY~FOR SERNCE,IN REASONABLY CLOSE CONFORMITY TO THE LOCATIONS AND DIMENSIONS AS SHOWN ON THE PLANS AND DESCRIBED IN THIS SPEdAL PROVISION. 1. DOTER CONDUIT CONDUIT SHALL CONTAIN A FACTORY ASSEMBLED MULTI-CELL INNERDUCT SYSTEM FOR THE COMPARTMENTALIZATION OF CABLE. THE CONDUIT SHALL PROVIDE FOR A POSITIVE CONNECTION (COUPLING) OF THE CONDUIT SECTIONS AND THE MULTI-CELL INNERDUCTS. THE COUPLING DEVICE SHALL ALLOW CONNECTION OF THE CONDUIT AND MULTI-CELL INNERDUCT WITHOUT SPINNING OF THE CONDUIT. THE COUPLING SHALL PROVIDE AN AIRTIGHT AND WATERTIGHT SEAL FOR 1HE OUTER CONDUIT AND THE MUL71-CELL INNERDUCT. THE COUPLING BODY WITN ITS SEALING MEMBER(S) SHALL SEAL THE OUTER WAILS OF THE MULTI-CELL INNERDUCT AND THE INNER WALL OF THE OUTER CONDUIT PRONDING AN AIRTIGHT AND WATERTIGHT SEAL FROM THE OUTSIDE OF THE.WTER CONDUIT TO WITHSTAND A WATER PRESSURE OF TWENTY (20) P.S.I.G. OR A WATER COLUMN OF TWELVE (12) FEET AND AN AIR PRESSURE OF FlFTEEN (15) P.S.I.G. FOR TWENTY-FOUR (24) HOURS.
