Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 1 - Foundation

1.1 Introduction The Abu Dhabi Urban Planning Council (UPC) has created a Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) that conforms to / complements the Abu Dhabi Urban Street Design Manual (USDM) issued in 2010, to be applied for new urban developments. The USDM defines the Right-of-Way of various families of streets based on the land use context within developments. The Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) defines the location and width of the various utilities envisaged to be constructed within the streets of new urban developments in the Emirate. The target users of the Manual include any party involved directly or indirectly in the design and installation of utilities and all related facilities within urban developments. Accordingly, the main target users include, but are not limited to, developers, urban planners, infrastructure engineers / designers and contractors involved in the design and construction of any new urban development within the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. The UCDM shall be applied in conjunction with the USDM, the Abu Dhabi Public Realm Design Manual, the Building Code published by concerned agencies and the utility corridor mapping specification published by DMA, all of which are currently applicable in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi.

Applicable manuals that should be considered alongside the UCDM: • Abu Dhabi Urban Street Design Manual • Abu Dhabi Public Realm Design Manual • Building Code • Utility Corridor Mapping Specification

1.2

Manual Goals and Intent

The UCDM has been prepared to realize the following objectives: • Provide standard arrangements for the installation of utilities within the Right-of-Way of the streets; • Assist utility providers / developers to complete utility installations with minimum delays and minimum interference with other utilities to ensure the timely installation of utilities; • Minimize service disruptions and avoid damage to adjacent utilities during installation and / or repair of utilities; • Minimize disruption to the traffic during the installation and maintenance of utilities; • Ensure standards and specifications are understood and achieved; and • Standardize utility locations to facilitate maintenance activities.

Chapter 1-2

Further to the Manual objectives, it is expected that the UCDM will facilitate the coordination between the various utility providers, regulatory authorities and consultants which will minimize the time taken for approving the utility disposition details / drawings. In addition, the UCDM will provide guidelines that will minimize conflicts in the design of various utility allocation. In particular, it clearly defines the location and corridor width for each utiltiy. The preparation of the UCDM comprised the following: • Identifying the requirements and current practices of the various stakeholders / utility providers / Government agencies within the Emirate of Abu Dhabi for the installation and maintenance of the different utilities. • Incorporating the requirements in the proposed utility installation configurations so as to ensure that the proposed reservations and their locations are achievable, can be constructed and maintained, and are acceptable to the concerned authorities / utility providers. • Carrying out a bench marking study and comparing the current requirements to international standards and common practices within other countries. • Providing guidelines to optimize the placement / installation of utilities within the limited Right-ofWays (ROWs) of the various street families proposed by the USDM.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 1 - Foundation

• Specifying the most appropriate / optimized configurations for the location of the different utilities and their respective corridor widths. • Defining typical utility disposition (cross-sections) for the different street families within the different land use contexts as per the USDM. These shall be adopted for the utility dispositions within the ROWs of streets for all future developments within the Emirate of Abu Dhabi.

1.3

Overview of Abu Dhabi Emirate 2030 Plans / Abu Dhabi Urban Street Design Manual (USDM)

The UPC has published three regional framework plans for the future developments within the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. To support the implementation of Plan Capital 2030, Plan Al Ain 2030 and Plan Al Gharbia 2030, the UPC also developed the Abu Dhabi Urban Street Design Manual (USDM) which presents a new view of urban street design practices for the Emirate of Abu Dhabi in accordance with the aspirations of Vision 2030. The USDM prescribes greater mobility and safety for non-vehicular traffic and deviates from the conventional classification of streets based on traffic volumes; it also provides street families, which are defined for each land use context. The USDM focuses on pedestrian safety by providing narrower ROWs and travel lane widths that reduce the

interaction time between pedestrians and vehicular traffic. The USDM attempts to promote urban identity and environmental sustainability within the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. The USDM provides for high-quality urban designs which cater for all modes of transport and renders the urban environment a pleasant and safe place to walk, cycle, use public transport and private vehicles. The design approach adopted by the USDM urges designers to distribute the estimated travel / trip demands over multiple streets, rather than concentrating the traffic volumes along a main arterial or boulevrad. Traffic distribution is achieved by providing a greater number of alternative travel routes, mainly through an improved connectivity of multiple narrower streets, instead of one wide arterial, within urban areas. The USDM presents typical cross sections of urban roads which are subdivided into six main contexts, based on adjacent land use. In addition, four street families for each land use context are provided to satisfy transport demand. As stated in the USDM, the typical cross sections take into consideration the need to “balance all stakeholders” requirements to design a “transport facility that fits its

Chapter 1-3

applicable setting”. Based on the transport demands and the stakeholders’ requirements for different street families within each context, the USDM indicates the various elements for each street type, along with their minimum width requirements and maximum allowable widths. Using these criteria and the street elements’ dimensions, the Right-Of-Way for each street type is established.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 1 - Foundation

1.4

Compliance with the Abu Dhabi Urban Street Design Manual

The USDM represents a major departure in the design of streets in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi for a number of reasons. Firstly, the carriageway configurations have been redefined to support and promote more sustainable modes of transport such as pedestrian walkways, cycle lanes, and mass transport facilities. Under the new design criteria incorporated in the USDM, the pedestrian replaces the motor vehicle as the focal point of transport. In addition to refocusing design criteria on pedestrian and alternative modes of transport, the streetscape has been altered significantly to make use of buildings to create shade for streets and to other buildings thus improving cooling efficiencies within buildings. This trend towards more sustainable design has resulted in narrower ROWs. This fundamental change in the streetscape design resulted in the need to make equally fundamental changes to the utility dispositions within the determined ROWs of streets. Moreover, because ample reservation space was provided under the previous wide street design solutions, utility corridors have tended to be oversized in comparison to other countries, which were constrained by narrower ROWs.

Manual Jurisdiction

For the purpose of this Manual, urban streets are all streets within new urban developments of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. This Manual does not apply to rural roads and freeways. Urban areas / developments are defined in Plan Capital 2030, Plan Al Ain 2030, and Plan Al Gharbia 2030. With regard to installation and / or replacement of utilities within existing urban streets, the guidelines given in the Manual shall be adopted; however, the location shall be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. The approval of the design of the respective utilities remains within the jurisdiction of the relevant authorities / utility providers listed in Chapter 2. This Manual shall be implemented by the Municipalities of the different regions in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. All proposed deviations from the standards and provisions contained in this Manual shall be approved by the UPC in advance of implementation. This Manual shall supersede and replace herewith all portions of Authorities’ / utility providers’ standards and guidelines pertaining to the utility corridor width and location, which may be in conflict with material contained herein.

1.6

Applying this Manual

This Manual provides the general guidelines and standards for the allocation of utility corridors within the different street families proposed by the USDM. This Manual indicates the required pipe / cable and chamber / manhole corridor widths for each utility and for each street type. Under certain instances, more than one option is proposed for the same street type. These additional options are included to provide more flexibility for the designer. Typical plans and sections are presented at the end of this Manual to illustrate the proposed disposition for each street type and each land use context. This Manual also provides typical utility dispositions / details at intersections and roundabouts. It is important to note that this Manual only covers the standard solutions which are appropriate to address the more common requirements. However, in instances where special design solutions are required, the designer needs to develop an understanding of the applicable solutions as discussed in this Manual in order to identify the most appropriate and effective solutions. The provisions of this Manual shall not dispense with any of the design requirements and standards already

Chapter 1-5

established by the authorities and utility providers within the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, except for those provided for utility corridor width and utility corridor location, if these are in conflict with the standards and guidelines established in this Manual. All trench and chamber / manhole details shall be in accordance with the requirements and general details of the concerned authority / utility provider, with the exception of those that may be in conflict with the surface finish requirements as stated in this Manual and / or in the USDM. Furthermore, all installation procedures shall follow the guidelines of the concerned authority / utility provider.

1.7

Manual Applicability

The Manual shall be applied to new urban developments only as defined by the Plan Capital 2030, Plan Al Ain 2030, and Plan Al Gharbia 2030 framework plans. The revitalization of existing developments will require a case-by-case study of utility corridors, where some of the utilities shown under the carriageway in this Manual could be located outside the carriageway limits to avoid disruption to traffic. However, the designer shall be guided by this Manual and shall adopt one of the options provided, where possible.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 1 - Foundation

1.8

Design Flexibility

This Manual provides a combination of standards and guidelines that ensure flexible and innovative utility corridor location and width design. Generally, standards either mandate specific practices or prohibit others, whereas guidelines are sets of rules that provide flexibility in the design. The purpose of this Manual is to define the utility corridor location and width and NOT to define the urban street Right-of-Way (ROW) as this will be defined by the urban planner as per the requirements of the USDM. The ROWs of the various streets illustrated in the UCDM represent the minimum ROWs necessary for utility installation, as per the minimum street element widths defined in the USDM. However, the planner may increase the ROW taking into consideration the minimum and maximum widths of the street elements given in the USDM while strictly adhering to the widths of the various utility corridors defined in the UCDM; under these circumstances the location of some utilities may be altered, as discussed in Section 4.1. Under no circumstances shall the ROW of the streets be increased based on increasing the utility corridor widths, except for those conditions identified in the UCDM.

Moreover, as indicated in the USDM, some additional public / pedestrian passages such as Sikka and Mushtarak may be introduced within the urban developments; under these circumstances the utilities located under the carriageway of the streets may be relocated to under these passages as discussed in Section 4.1 of this Manual. In all instances, this Manual must be applied in conjunction with supporting documents from all agencies having jurisdiction. Design options and guidelines for various street types given in this Manual are the preferred design options for utility disposition within the urban streets of Abu Dhabi. However, the service corridor designs presented in this Manual shall be adopted in all instances, except in special cases where the UPC’s approval has been obtained. Whenever a proposed design requires deviation(s) from the set guidelines, alternative solutions shall be presented and agreed in advance with the UPC.

Types of Utilities

The utilities covered by the UCDM include:

The utilities considered in this Manual include all the utilities that are currently used in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi as well as the utilities that may be considered in the future.

• Water distribution system;

In general, the main utilities that occupy part of roads’ ROWs (in addition to the clearance) can be divided into the following two categories:

• Gas network;

• Road utilities; and • Building utilities Road utilities include the infrastructure systems that serve the road itself, such as stormwater drainage, street lighting, fiber optic systems and landscape irrigation systems. Building utilities include infrastructure systems that service the buildings located on the side of the road; these include the water supply, power supply, telecommunication system, gas network, district cooling system and wastewater collection system. These utilities fall under the responsibility of the respective utility providers in conjunction with the Municipalities.

• Wastewater collection system; • Landscape irrigation water supply system; • Urban stormwater drainage system; • Power supply, including high voltage (HV) that supplies primary substations, medium voltage (MV), low voltage (LV); • Telecommunication network; • Fiber optic networks, including fiber optic systems to include: the DoT’s (Intelligent Transportation System: ITS), ADM-TSS (Traffic Control System: TCS), Signal Corp, National Emergency And Crisis Management Authority - NECMA (Falcon Eye), and AD Police; • District Cooling Network; and • Street Lighting. In addition to the above, allocation of corridors for trees / landscaping is also accounted for, and guidelines for the arrangement of solid waste collection facilities / bins is also provided for.

2.3

Coordination and Management of Utility Corridors

Effective management and design of utility installations are imperative for the safe and expedient construction and maintenance of the road network. Close coordination with utility providers is essential to meet these objectives. This will necessitate that the UPC, DoT, the Municipalities (ADM, AAM, and WRM), and the utility companies’ representatives meet regularly to exchange information to help avoid conflicts between utility companies’ projects and Municipal projects, in terms of location, construction or method of installation of utilities within the ROW of streets. Work within the public ROW by contractors and / or utility companies requires proper coordination between these companies and the authorities to ensure appropriate utilization of the ROW. Among the issues that need to be coordinated, public safety, pedestrians’, cyclists and drivers’ comfort, aesthetics and cost-effectiveness of the implemented reinstatement strategy are considered of utmost importance.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 2 - Stakeholders and Utilities

The operation and maintenance of the utilities will benefit from efficient and effective coordination. Inter-agency coordination during the installation and / or operation and maintenance activities will maximize the benefits and ensure the following: • Reduction in road maintenance costs; • Provision of smoother roads with fewer closures for maintenance / rehabilitation activities; • Provision of cost effective engineered solutions which are suitable for the local conditions; • Promotion of consistent policies which eliminate disputes among stakeholders; and • Expediting project delivery and avoidance of project delays in the preliminary engineering, preconstruction and construction phases.

Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 3 - Design and Approval Process

3.1 Introduction

3.2

The design of utility corridors involves a thorough understanding of the design of the new street families and the definition of the various elements of the streets. In addition, a comprehensive understanding of the requirements of all utility providers and agencies is necessary.

The design process generally involves several steps that shall be carried out in a chronological order to execute the project objectives. The required steps are as follows:

This understanding is required to enable the designer to clearly define utility corridor widths and locations based on the intended use of the street and the type of the development to be serviced. The following sections illustrate the design process that shall be adopted during the application of the UCDM.

Design Process

1. Data and information collection; 2. Conceptual design development; 3. Evaluation and review of design / obtain preliminary approval / or rejection. 4. Finalize design; and 5. Obtain final approvals.

3.2.1

Step 1: Gather & Present Information

Prior to the initiation of the design of any development, the designer shall issue a Notice of Intent (NOI) requesting information on any existing utilities and / or constraints imposed by ongoing or planned projects in the vicinity of the development. The design of the utilities and their related disposition drawings will also involve the collection of all the relevant data, standards and design guidelines adopted by the respective utility providers, including the UCDM. The designer shall review the requirements of the various authorities and utility providers prior to initiating conceptual designs of the utility networks. During this step it is essential that the designer agrees on all the requirements with the respective authorities and / or utility provider, before proceeding with desgin.

Chapter 3-2


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 3 - Design and Approval Process

3.2.2 Step 2: Develop Conceptual Design

3.2.3 Step 3: Evaluate & Review Design

The second step involves developing the conceptual design of the utilities taking into consideration the planning and transportation requirements of the development under consideration. This step involves coordination between the planners, transport engineers and utilities engineers in order to agree on an optimized design of the roads and utilities that will meet the requirements of the intended use of the development.

During this step, the designer shall prepare the necessary documentation including the basis of the design, drawings, conceptual design calculations, etc. and coordinate with the authorities and utility providers. The main objective of this step is to ensure that proposed concepts comply with the various utility providers’ and authorities’ requirements.

1. Development of Conceptual Design

The utility engineer shall select the utility arrangement options defined in this Manual which best suit the street ROWs defined by the urban planner and street designer. Once the most suitable Design review and evaluation utility arrangement / disposition configuration is selected, the designer shall seek preliminary approvals for the proposed service corridor from the Town Planning Departments of the relevant Municipality in order to proceed with final design. During this step, the designer shall also obtain the approval of the respective utility providers on the

Chapter 3-3

Design, review & evaluate

design of utilities. In addition, the approval of the UPC on the conceptual urban planning design of the development shall be secured.

3.2.4 Step 4: Finalize Design Once the preliminary approvals from the Town Planning Department of the relevant Municipality, utility providers and the UPC are obtained, the designer shall proceed with finalizing the designs; in particular, finalizing the utility disposition drawings for the various street types within the development in accordance with the guidelines provided in this Manual.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 3 - Design and Approval Process

3.2.5 Step 5: Obtain Final Approvals

3.3

Design Options

During this stage, the designer shall submit the final designs to the different agencies to obtain the final NOC and then submit the urban design of the development, including the utility disposition designs, to the UPC for detailed planning approval.

The utility disposition sections provided by this Manual in Annex A are intended to account for all utilities currently being installed in Abu Dhabi and other utilities which are expected to be installed in the future. In some instances several options are provided for the same type of street; in these instances, the designer shall select the option that is most appropriate for the design. Wherever some of the utilities included in the UCDM are not required, the designer shall maintain the unused allocated corridors as spare corridors. However, if the spare / unused corridors are needed for other utilities, the designer shall submit alternative proposals for utility dispositions to the UPC for review and approval.

The designer shall abide by the required utility corridors specified in this Manual. If the design of the roads does not allow for a street type with a larger ROW, and if the design of the utilities require larger corridors, the designer shall: • Receive special approval for a wider ROW in the specified street, after submission of technical justifications for the wider corridor requirements (E.g.: larger pipeline diameter required based on hydraulic calculations; number of cables; etc.); or • If the increase of ROW is critical to the development, the designer may use a utility tunnel. The general guidelines for the design of a utility tunnel are included in this Manual.

Right-of-Ways (ROW) Determined by the Abu Dhabi Urban Street Design Manual (USDM)

The ROW defined by the Abu Dhabi Urban Street Design Manual shall be respected by all proposed designs for utilities. The USDM defines the various elements of the streets and their use. The USDM defines the ROW for the different types of streets based on the land use context. A summary of the standard and absolute minimum ROW for the various types of street families, as determined by the USDM, is provided hereafter. Different types for the same street family are included; also, a description of the elements of each street type is presented in Annex A.

since this utility is more frequently accessed than the other utilities placed under the carriageway; • The second priority shall be given to the district cooling system, if required; • The third priority shall be given to the gas system provided the minimum safe distance from the plot boundary (as per the utility provider requirements) is satisfied; and

the mushtarak or sikka shall be given to the telecom, district cooling system, gas system and wastewater corridor in the same order. Subject to the previously stated conditions, the stormwater corridor shall be provided in the carriageway and in the mushtarak or sikka. Front Street

• The wastewater corridor shall be the fourth priority, followed by the stormwater drainage corridor. In addition to the street families described herein, the USDM introduces additional public / pedestrian passages within developments, namely the mushtarak and sikka. In instances where a mushtarak or a sikka is introduced as a parallel passage to one of the street families, and is adjacent to the plot from the rear, the designer may relocate the utilities proposed under the carriageway to the mushtarak or sikka at the rear, provided the mushtarak or sikka does not run parallel to a primary electrical substation. A mushtarak or a sikka running parallel to a primary electrical substation shall have the priority for accommodating the power cables originating from the primary electrical substation.

• The telecom corridor shall have the first priority

Alternative Location for Services

The ROW, defined in this section for the different land use contexts, is the absolute and standard minimum needed for the installation of utilities. The planner may design the streets with a wider ROW based on the USDM, by introducing the optional elements on the pedestrian realm or increasing the width of certain elements as defined by the USDM. In such instances, the utilities shown under the carriageway may be relocated under the sidewalk. The relocation of utilities shall be based on the following:

Utilities within carriageway of front street, could be relocated to Mushtarak or Sikka

City Context

Town Context

Commercial Context

Within a city context, the USDM defines the development as mixed-use central business districts (CBD) having high-density neighborhoods and a high level of pedestrian activities. In this landuse context, buildings are typically seven storeys or higher. The ROW of streets within the city context land use is given in Table 4.1.

Within a town context, the USDM defines development as mixed-use areas with medium levels of pedestrian activity, where buildings are typically three to six storeys. The ROW of streets for this land use context is given in Table 4.2. Similar to the city context, an access lane within this context is defined as a service road.

The USDM defines the commercial context as areas throughout the city intended to provide a variety of working, shopping and service options and convenience. An access lane within this context is defined as a service road, similar to the town and city contexts.

An access lane within this context is defined as a service road from the rear of buildings intended for garage / parking access as well as for garbage collection and other building services / maintenance operations.

Industrial Context Within an industrial context, the USDM defines the development as areas for businesses that have potential to create adverse visual or other impacts to adjoining public and residential properties. Uses include light industries such as warehousing and distribution with support commercial services and ancillary office space. This context however, does not include heavy industry zones, since such land uses may require wider ROWs, wider travel lanes and in particular special types / capacities of utilities. Heavy industry zones will be treated on a case-by-case basis. Nevertheless, it is expected that trucks will make up a larger proportion of vehicles in the industrial context. The ROW for this land use context is based on the absolute minimum requirements of the USDM is given in Table 4.5. The designer shall define the ROW for streets within this context based on USDM requirements and is allowed to increase the travel lane width; however, the utility corridors within this context shall be as defined in this Manual.

4.2

Design Considerations and Requirements

the size / width of the associated chambers and manholes that are installed along the corridor.

Several factors affect the design of utility corridors. Some factors might differ depending on the utility in question; however, many factors are common and govern the design of corridors for almost any utility. Moreover, factors are divided into two major categories; factors which govern the corridor in terms of its width, and factors which govern the corridor in terms of its location.

Other factors also include operation and maintenance, repair and replacement requirements. Factors governing the location of the corridor include clearance requirements from other utilities (mainly applicable between water and wastewater / treated sewage effluent (TSE)), clearance requirements from plot limits and connections to plots and inspection chambers, in addition to public safety considerations. Other important considerations in locating utilities are the factors which govern whether a utility can be installed under the carriageway or whether it should be placed under the sidewalk. Utilities which require frequent access should not be placed under the carriageway because operation and maintenance requirements may cause frequent traffic interruptions and frequent asphalt cutting and repairs. Also, pressurized pipes such as water and irrigation water supply pipes might cause significant damage to asphalted roads if pipe failure occurs; consequently, these utilities are normally placed under sidewalks and / or block paved surfaces. The utilities that can be accessed for repair through manholes are selected to be installed under the travel lanes / carriageway.

The required corridor widths are normally governed by the minimum width needed to properly install the utility and this comprises proper excavation, laying, backfilling, compaction and reinstatement. The corridor width is also governed by

In order to reduce the width of the ROW and optimize the location of each utility corridor width, the design of the utility corridors shall adopt the concept of staggering, whereby appurtenances (chambers and manholes) are allowed to extend beyond the corridor limits to a shared corridor between adjacent utilities.

Chapter 4-6


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 4 - Utility Corridor Desig

However in all instances, the encroachment shall respect the minimum clearance from the utility pipe / cable and accordingly, no encroachment on the pipe / cable corridor shall be allowed. This is mainly applicable to utilities which require a wider corridor at the locations of the appurtenances / chambers. Thus, a shared corridor is created between adjacent utilities to accommodate the appurtenances of the utilities. Each utility shall have a dedicated corridor that accommodates the minimum pipe / cable requirements, referred to as the pipe / cable corridor. In addition, minimum clearance of 1.0m shall be maintained between the plot boundary and the first utility adjacent to it. Clearance next to the plot boundary shall be used for the installation of inspection chambers / house connections. Consequently, the plot boundary wall foundation shall not be allowed to extend beyond the plot boundary limit into the ROW.

SIDEWALK

TRAVEL LANES (ASPHALT)

PARKING LANES (BLOCK PAVED)

All utilities shall be installed up to the plot boundary limit, whereby the pipe and / or cable shall be extended to the inspection chamber, valve box, etc. near the plot boundary. For utilities installed on one side of the ROW or under the carriageway, ducts for utility crossing to the opposite plot shall be installed at the same time the primary system is installed within the ROW.

4.2.1

Water Supply Corridor

Two criteria govern the required corridor width for the water supply network. The first is the pipe corridor width determined by the pipe size / diameter, and the second is the chamber corridor width, which is determined by the width of appurtenance(s) / chambers. While the former dictates the minimum width to house the pipe, the latter is normally required to house the outer width / dimension of the chambers / manholes, as required.

4.2.1.1 Water Supply Pipe Corridor Width Requirements Pipe corridor width requirements are based on the pipe material and / or pipe diameter. Pipe diameters vary depending on the land use context as well as the street type, as larger streets are expected to contain larger pipes. Minimum pipe corridor width requirements were estimated based on best practice procedures in Abu Dhabi Emirate, the requirements for different pipe diameters are shown in Table ‎4.7.

Table ‎4.7: Water Supply Pipe Corridor Requirements

In general, the fire fighting network is combined with the potable water network. In instances where a dedicated ring main is required for the fire fighting network to ensure the minimum required residual pressure at the hydrants, the ROW under the sidewalk shall be increased to accommodate fire fighting pipes subject to UPC approval.

4.2.1.2 Water Supply Appurtenances In addition to isolation valve chambers, water networks comprise other chambers / appurtenances including washout valve chambers, air vent chambers, flow meter chambers, sector meter chambers, fire hydrants and several others. All details shall be in accordance with ADWEA / TRANSCO / ADDC / AADC standards and typical details. External chamber dimensions shall be limited to 1.5m for all pipes with diameters less than or equal to 300mm and shall not exceed 2.2m, for pipe diameters between 300mm and 600mm, and 2.7m for larger diameters, as shown on the typical sections in Annex A. For valve chambers at intersecting pipes, it is recommended to utilize chambers for single valve installation so as to reduce the chamber dimensions. In instances where two valves are installed at a T connection, it is recommended that the valves are installed in separate chambers before the street intersection. However if a common chamber for the valves is to be used, the chamber shall be allowed to encroach on the adjacent clearance corridor from the plot boundary.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 4 - Utility Corridor Desig

Based on the same principle, chambers / appurtenances of adjacent utilities shall be allowed to encroach on the water chamber corridor provided the required pipe corridor width is maintained. The standard minimum pipe and chamber corridor widths required for the water pipes for the different street families are presented in Table ‎4.8. In some instances where the ROW is limited, and taking into consideration the land use context and expected demands, absolute minimum pipe and chamber corridor widths are also estimated and are included in Table 4.8 between parentheses.

4.2.1.4 Water Supply Special Arrangements Although the corridor allocations, as summarized in Table ‎ 4.8, can accommodate most water appurtenances, a few specific appurtenances / chambers might require special arrangements / considerations. Accordingly, the designer shall provide the necessary allocations within the development plan outside the ROW of the streets (away from footpaths and the furnishing zone) for the following appurtenances, whenever required: • District Meters (DMS) shall be installed in open areas. In instances where the DMS need to be installed

Chapter 4-9

• Bulk connections shall be placed within the plot boundary while providing accessibility to ADWEA / ADDC / AADC staff; • Washout chambers shall be installed, whenever possible, within parks and open spaces; • Fire hydrants shall be installed within the tree corridor; and • Flow meters shall be installed within buildings plots. In addition, TRANSCO water lines shall be accounted for by the designer as per TRANSCO water corridor requirements, independently of the above required water corridors. TRANSCO water corridors shall be installed based on one of the following guidelines after securing UPC approval on the approach adopted: • Increasing the ROW of the street where a TRANSCO water main is installed; or • Introducing within the development a dedicated corridor for the TRANSCO water main.

4.2.1.5 Water Supply System Pipe Depth

4.2.1.6 Location of the Water Corridor

The depth of the water supply system shall be in accordance with the requirements of ADDC / AADC. The minimum depths for water pipes are shown in Annex A.

The first corridor after the clearance from the plot boundary, shall always be reserved for the water lines on both sides of the street. Whenever valve chambers are required, the chambers are allowed to encroach on the clearance from the plot boundary.

The designer shall take into consideration varying the depth of water pipes so as to allow for the vertical clearance of pipe and other utilities, in particular at intersections and for house connection installation. In all instances, the water pipe shall be installed above wastewater and irrigation pipes with a minimum vertical clearance of 300mm. In the case where an irrigation line or a wastewater line crosses over a water pipeline, all pipes shall be encased in concrete or installed within a sleeve.

Whenever the corridor width for the primary main is not sufficient for the construction of the appurtenances, the chambers are allowed to encroach on adjacent utility corridors provided the encroachment does not extend into the pipe / cable corridor reservation of the adjacent utility. Similarly, adjacent utility appurtenances are allowed to encroach on the water supply main corridor, provided that such encroachment does not extend into the water main pipe corridor. A minimum clear distance of 1.0m shall be maintained between the water corridor and any wastewater or irrigation / TSE corridor. This distance can be reduced to 0.8m if a third utility separates the water from the sewer and / or irrigation lines.

Chapter 4-10


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 4 - Utility Corridor Desig

4.2.2 Wastewater Collection Corridor Similar to the water supply system, two criteria dictate the required corridor width for the wastewater collection network. The first is the pipe corridor width as determined by the pipe diameter, and the second is the manhole width / diameter. While the former imposes the minimum width required for the whole length of the corridor, the latter is normally required at connections and changes in direction or slopes at manhole locations.

4.2.2.1 Wastewater Pipe Corridor Width Requirements Pipe corridor width requirements are generally based on pipe diameters. The required pipe diameter varies depending on the wastewater flow which in turn depends on the land use context as well as the street type. In general, larger pipes are expected to run within the wider roads. The pipe corridor width requirements for the different pipe diameters are shown in Table ‎4.9.

4.2.2.2 Wastewater Manholes Manhole dimensions and details shall be in accordance with ADSSC’s standards and typical details. Accordingly, manhole dimensions are limited to 2.0m for all pipes less than 500mm in diameter, 2.8m for all pipes between 500mm and 900mm in diameter and 3.2m for larger pipe diameters. In some locations the manhole dimension might be 4.0m so as to accommodate manholes for pipes with diameters larger than 1400mm.

4.2.2.3 Wastewater Pipe Depth The minimum depth of the wastewater pipe shall be in accordance with the requirements of ADSSC, and as per the design requirements . The minimum depth of wastewater pipes are shown on the typical sections in Annex A. In all instances, the wastewater pipe shall be installed below water pipes with a minimum vertical clearance of 300mm in accordance with utility providers’ requirements. In the case where a wastewater pipe crosses over a water pipeline, especially at house connections, all pipes shall be encased in concrete or installed within a sleeve.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 4 - Utility Corridor Desig

The standard minimum pipe and manhole corridor widths required for the wastewater system for the different street families are presented in Table ‎4.10. In some instances where the ROW is limited, and taking into consideration the land use context and expected discharges from the various buildings / dwellings along the streets, the pipe and manhole corridor widths may be eliminated as shown in Table 4.10 between parentheses.

Wastewater corridors shall be allowed under the carriageway wherever placement under the sidewalk and / or block paved surfaces is not possible.

Chapter 4-12

Wastewater force mains shall be installed in accordance with ADSSC requirements. Based on the design of the wastewater system, the force main shall be installed within a dedicated corridor under the sidewalk in accordance with ADSSC corridor widths for force main requirements. The designer shall submit the proposed increase in the ROW, supported by justification and necessary documentation, to the UPC for approval.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 4 - Utility Corridor Desig

4.2.3 Irrigation / TSE As is the case for water and wastewater, the same two criteria dictate the required corridor width for the primary irrigation water supply network. These are the pipe corridor width and the dimensions of the appurtenance(s). The minimum corridor width shall be that imposed by the pipe corridor requirements which is determined by the pipe diameter. The maximum corridor width allowed is based on the outer dimensions of the appurtenances / chambers used for irrigation systems.

4.2.3.1 Irrigation Pipe Corridor Width Requirements Pipe corridor width requirements are based on the pipe material and / or pipe diameter. Generally, irrigation pipes are either ductile iron pipes, PVC or HDPE pipes. Irrigation pipe diameters vary depending on the landscape scheme which may vary from one land use context to another. Since irrigation systems within urban areas are generally decentralized, the maximum pipe diameter of these systems should not exceed 600mm. This Manual provides corridors for larger diameters to provide flexibility for the designer in providing a primary supply / transmission main through the

development. The larger corridors are only permitted on wider streets or in open spaces. The pipe corridor width requirements for the different pipe diameters are shown in Table 4.11. Table ‎4.11: Irrigation System Pipe Corridor Requirements Pipe Diameter (mm)

4.2.3.2 Irrigation Appurtenances Irrigation system appurtenances mainly include isolation valve chambers. However, other types may be used on primary supply mains, such as washout valve chambers, and air vent chambers. All details shall be in accordance with Municipality and PRFD standards and typical details, with the exception of surface finishes, which shall be in accordance with the requirements of the USDM and Public Realm

Chapter 4-13

Manual. External chamber dimensions shall be limited to 1.5m for all pipes with diameters less than or equal to 300mm and shall not exceed 2.2m for larger diameters. For valve chambers on the main line at intersecting pipes, the chamber shall be designed for single valve installation so as to reduce the chamber dimensions. In instances where two valves shall be installed at a T connection, each valve shall be installed in a separate chamber before the street intersection.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 4 - Utility Corridor Desig

In most cases, the irrigation chamber is allowed to encroach on the tree corridor or the stormwater inlet corridor. Based on the same principles outlined for other utilities, chambers / appurtenances of adjacent utilities shall be allowed to encroach on the irrigation corridor provided the required pipe corridor width is maintained. The pipe and chamber corridor widths required for the primary irrigation system for the different street families are presented in Table ‎4.12. The number of irrigation corridors per street is determined by the number of tree corridors required. With regard to secondary supply lines, these shall be installed above the irrigation pipe within the same corridor.

The minimum depth of irrigation pipes are shown on the typical sections included in Annex A. In all instances, the irrigation pipe shall be installed below water pipes with a minimum vertical clearance of 300mm. In cases where an irrigation pipe crosses over a water pipeline, especially at house connections and at intersections, all pipes shall be encased in concrete or installed within a sleeve.

Chapter 4-14

Although the foregoing corridor requirements can accommodate most irrigation appurtenances, a few appurtenances / chambers might require special arrangements / considerations, such as washout chambers. It is recommended that such chambers be installed, whenever possible, within parks, landscaped areas and open spaces.

4.2.3.6 Location of the Irrigation System Corridor A minimum clear distance of 1.0m shall be maintained between the irrigation / TSE corridor and any potable water corridor. This distance can be reduced to 0.8m if a third utility separates the water from the irrigation / TSE corridor. Irrigation corridors shall not be allowed under the carriageway unless there is no available space under the sidewalk and / or block paved surfaces. However, it is preferable to place the corridor as close as possible to any landscaping strip / tree corridors.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 4 - Utility Corridor Desig

4.2.4 Stormwater Drainage The corridor widths for the stormwater collection system are also determined by the requirements for pipe and appurtenance / manhole installation. The pipe corridor width is determined by the pipe diameters, whereas the manhole corridor is determined by the outer dimensions of the storm inlet and / or the outer dimensions of the manholes. Manhole dimensions are defined as the width of rectangular manholes and the diameter for circular manholes. The pipe size defines the minimum pipe corridor width required for the whole length of the corridor, and the manhole dimensions define the manhole corridor. In addition to the corridor(s) required for the stormwater collection pipe, corridor(s) for the stormwater inlets shall also be allocated. As such, this Manual distinguishes between stormwater inlet corridors and stormwater collection corridors.

the stormwater inlet / pipe within access lanes and use surface drainage to receiving / intersecting streets, where deemed appropriate. Utility corridor options illustrating these instances are shown in the utility corridor disposition details / sections included in this Manual. The designer may use swales for the stormwater drainage within the pedestrian zone / sidewalks. In such instances, the swale location shall not obstruct pedestrian and / or cyclists movement. The swale could be located above utilities, in coordination with the concerned utility provider.

4.2.4.1 Stormwater Drainage Pipe Corridor Width Requirements Pipe corridor width requirements are generally determined by the minimum requirements for pipe installation and hence depend on the pipe diameter and the type of soil.

For access lanes, due to space restrictions, a combined corridor for the stormwater collection pipe and the stormwater inlet shall be used.

Pipe diameters vary depending on the street type and its ROW since in general, stormwater is drained from smaller streets to larger streets provided the grading allows for such gravity flows.

The designer shall consider the option of eliminating

The designer is encouraged in all instances to adopt

4.2.5 District Cooling The corridor requirements for the district cooling system (DCS) are defined as a function of the supply / return pipe arrangement and the valve chamber dimensions. The pipe arrangement defines the minimum pipe corridor width, and the outer dimensions of the valve chamber define the chamber corridor width.

4.2.5.1 District Cooling Pipe Corridor Width Requirements Normally, DCS pipe corridors are expected to house two district cooling pipes (one for supply and one for return). Pipe corridor width requirements are based on the diameters of the pipes which in turn vary depending on the land use context as well as the street type. Spacing between the supply and return pipes shall be 300mm. Also, a 300mm spacing shall be maintained between the pipes and the trench walls in addition to the insulation width of 50mm for pipes with diameters less than 16” (400mm) and 75mm for pipes with diameters equal to or greater than 16” (400mm). The total pipe corridor width for district cooling pipes as a function of the supply / return pipe diameters shall be as set out in Table ‎4.15.

corridor on both sides of the DCS pipe corridor shall be allocated to accommodate the width / diameter of the largest chamber along the pipes. In instances where the street ROW is limited, the DCS chambers shall be allowed to encroach on the corridor of the adjacent utility provided the pipe / cable corridor width of the adjacent utility is maintained. Similar to other utilities, chambers / appurtenances of adjacent utilities shall be allowed to encroach on the DCS corridor provided the required pipe corridor width is maintained. In some contexts, DCS is not considered because it has been established through current practice that it is not feasible. The DCS corridor within the different street families shall be as presented in Table ‎4.17.

4.2.5.5 Location of the DCS Corridor Due to space limitations within street ROW, DCS corridors shall be placed under the carriageway. This utility, if required, shall be installed during the early stages of construction of infrastructure works. The frequency of maintaining the pipes and / or carrying connections on installed pipes for the DCS is less than that required for other utilities. Taking these two factors into consideration, installing DCS pipes under the carriageway is unlikely to result in frequent road closures for service provision and / or repair or maintenance of the installations.

4.2.6 Power Supply Corridor The power supply comprises HV, MV, LV and street lighting. The following subsections define the corridor width and location for each of these installations.

4.2.6.1 High Voltage Corridors All HV trenches, joint pits and corridors shall conform to, and be in accordance with, TRANSCO requirements and typical details. One 2.0m HV corridor shall be provided on all Avenues and two 2.0m HV corridors shall be provided on all boulevards. The maximum external chamber widths allowed for shall be 2.0m. The corridors shall be located under the median and shall be kept clear from any tree roots. The allowed corridor width shall accommodate the HV cables, joint pit, link box including joint and route markers. Whenever more than one primary substation is required within a development, the designer shall locate these substations on different boulevards. The HV corridors shall be used for ADDC / AADC 33kV in instances where the TRANSCO 132kV HV lines corridors are not used.

TRANSCO cables are generally installed with a minimum cover of 1.0m.

4.2.6.2 Medium and Low Voltage Corridors According to the current practice of ADDC / AADC, fiber optic cables (FOC) are installed alongside the MV cables. All MV trenches, FOC manholes and corridors shall be installed within the same allocated corridor. The FOC shall be laid through separate PVC conduit(s) at the same depth as and adjacent to the power cables, and in the same trench.

Table 4 ‎ .18 provides the corridor width for LV / MV, for guidance only. All LV / MV trenches shall be located under sidewalks and / or block paved surfaces. LV / MV cables are generally installed at depths varying between 0.55m and 0.75m respectively, as shown on the typical sections included in Annex A.

All LV trenches and corridors shall conform to ADWEA / ADDC / AADC requirements and typical details. In order to allow for more flexibility in installation, combined corridors shall be allocated for both MV and LV cables (labeled as ADDC / AADC Power). The number of cables, and consequently trench / corridor width for both MV and LV, varies between land use contexts and street types depending on the electrical loads and the number of storeys per building. The spacing between MV cables (22Kv and 11Kv) shall be 400mm. Whenever necessary, the spacing can be reduced to 300mm, subject to ADDC / AADC approval. Similarly LV cables shall be installed with a spacing of 300mm and the spacing can be reduced to 200mm whenever necessary, also subject to ADDC / AADC approval.

4.2.7 Telecommunications – Outside Plant (OSP)

4.2.7.1 Telecommunications Duct Corridor Width Requirements

Currently there are two utility providers for telecommunications in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. This Manual provides the requirements for the telecommunication corridor which shall be shared by all telecom providers currently operating in Abu Dhabi and by other telecom providers that may operate in the Emirate in the future. All civil works related to the installation of telecommunication systems, such as duct-banks, hand-holes, manholes etc. which are to be installed within the proposed shared telecommunication corridors, shall be executed by the main contractor responsible for the road works along with the road construction.

The duct corridor width is governed by the number of ducts to be installed and the spacing between ducts.

The telecommunication corridor is governed by the duct and appurtenances requirements. The duct corridor requirements are determined by the number of telecom ducts to be installed and the chamber / manhole corridor width is determined by the outer dimensions of telecom manholes and hand holes.

The horizontal and vertical distance between consecutive ducts installed within the same trench shall be 150mm center to center, leaving 50mm of free space between ducts to allow for spacers and concrete filling. The distance between ducts and the trench wall shall not be less than 100mm. The preferred duct corridor width requirements for telecom cables are indicated in Table ‎‎4.20.

of manholes is 2.0m. Manhole corridor width requirements for telecom cables shall be as indicated in Table 4 ‎ .21. Similar to other utilities, if allocated space is not sufficient for the installation of the telecom manhole, the designer is allowed to use the shared corridor. In this instance the manhole is allowed to encroach on the corridor of adjacent utilities provided the minimum pipe / cable corridor width of the adjacent utility is maintained. Similarly, other utility appurtenances are allowed to encroach on the telecom corridor provided the encroachment does not extend into the minimum telecom duct corridor. The minimum cover requirements in accordance with the current practice of the service providers varies between 0.6m up to 1.3m. Table ‎4.21: Telecom Corridor Allocation Side 1 Street Family

4.2.7.3 Location of the Telecommunication Corridor Common telecommunication corridors shall be provided for all utility providers and shall be located under the parking lane, frontage lane, or travel lane as shown on the typical utility disposition sections provided in this Manual (Annex A).

4.2.8 Fiber Optics Corridors The Fiber Optic lines considered in this section of the Manual pertain to the following utilities: • Municipalities ADM / AAM / WRM TSS (Traffic Services Section) for the Traffic Control System (TCS); • Department of Transport (DoT) for the Intelligent Traffic System (ITS); • Abu Dhabi Police (ADP); • Signal Corps (SC); and • National Emergency And Crisis Management Authority (NECMA) for the Falcon Eye system (FE). For the purposes of this Manual, fiber optic lines are grouped in two main categories, as follows: • High security fiber optic lines, which include Signal Corps lines, Falcon Eye lines, and secure Abu Dhabi Police lines.

Services Sections lines, DoT Intelligent Traffic System lines, and Abu Dhabi Police traffic related communication lines. High Security fiber optic lines and regular fiber optic lines shall be installed in separate dedicated corridors designated as HS and FO on all major streets, namely Avenues and boulevards. In instances where the ROW of the Avenue and / or boulevard is limited, whereby two independent corridors cannot be accommodated, the high security and regular fiber optic lines shall be combined in one corridor, designated as FO. Accordingly, the FO corridor is designed to accommodate both regular fiber optic and high security fiber optic lines at all times. Where an FO and / or HS corridor is required on a street or access lane, in particular where a police station or a civil defence facility is constructed / planned, the street ROW shall be increased to accommodate the FO and / or HS corridor. The designer shall approach NECMA, Signal Corps and AD Police during the early stages of master planning to incorporate their requirements within the smaller streets.

Agencies that share HS Corridor • NECMA for FE • Abu Dhabi Police- ADP • Signal Corps

• Regular fiber optic lines, which include ADM Traffic

Agencies that share FO Corridor • Abu Dhabi Police-ADP • DoT for ITS • ADM / AAM / WRM-TSS for TCS • Signal Corps • NECMA for FE

HS corridor } Wherever is not provided

4.2.8.1 FO / HS Duct Corridor Width Requirements The duct corridor width of the installations is governed by the number and size of ducts to be installed, the spacing between ducts and concrete encasement. In order to accommodate the various utilities sharing the corridor and their requirements, the FO duct corridor dimension shall be based on the formation comprising 50mm and 100mm diameter conduits. The minimum spacing between conduits is maintained at 50mm for spacers and concrete filling and the distance between the ducts and concrete wall shall not be less than 50mm. The arrangements therefore yield a total width of 700mm. The HS duct bank shall have a similar arrangement yielding a total duct corridor width of 500mm.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 4 - Utility Corridor Desig

Figure 4.2 illustrates typical arrangements for Fiber Optics (FO) and High Security (HS) duct banks. Manhole details / arrangements for the FO and HS corridors for the various types are illustrated in Figure 4.3 and Figure 4.4.

Typical arrangement - FO duct bank

The minimum cover requirements vary between 0.65m for branches and 0.8m for the main lines.

Typical arrangement - HS duct bank

4.2.8.2 FO / HS Corridor Width Requirements As stated previously, the corridor width is determined by the outer dimension of manholes / hand holes. Based on the currently installed manhole / hand hole for FO and HS systems, the maximum outer width of the hand hole is 1.2m and 1.0m, respectively. Consequently, the corridor width requirements for FO / HS cables shall be 1.2m and 1.0m. In order to restrict access to the high security lines to the relevant Authority, and as these cables are sharing the trench / hand hole with other fiber optic utilities, access shall be permitted only through dedicated hand holes for each utility. This could be achieved by encasing / covering specific ducts with concrete in hand holes / manholes restricting access to the cables of these specific utilities while having the remaining cables accessible. In instances where the street ROW is limited, the FO / HS hand holes shall be allowed to encroach on the shared corridor provided the pipe / cable corridor width of the adjacent utility is maintained.

4.2.10 Solid Waste Collection Bins All solid waste collection bins shall be placed away from the ROW of roads. These shall be located within plot boundaries for villas and in setbacks at the back side of buildings for all other types, such as residential buildings, office buildings, commercial centers, etc. The allocated utility corridors and ROW of roads do not allow for any lay-bys for waste bins and do not allow for the placement of these bins on sidewalks or

within the public realm of the roads. Planners shall provide dedicated spaces for placing the waste bins away from the street ROW. Underground waste bins can also be used, these can be installed at the plot level or at the community level. When installed at the plot level, the underground bin shall be located close to the boundary wall for easy access by the waste collection operators. When installed at the community level, the designer shall

ensure that a plot is allocated outside the ROW of the street for the installation of the waste bins. The plot utilized for this system shall be landscaped to match the surrounding area and shall provide all weather vehicular access for the waste collection operator. Figure 4.5 reflects a schematic configuration of waste bins allocation within a residential area, for both above-ground and underground installations. In instances where underground bins are used, a typical detail is shown for guidance only, to be developed by the designer based on equipment availability and local regulations. In all cases, the bins have to be housed such that a dedicated access to the bin area is secured, and independent from the villa / dwelling access. For developments where a vacuum system is considered feasible, the ROW shall be increased to accommodate the vacuum pipes, and all vacuum stations shall be installed away from the street ROW. The designer shall submit the proposed modifications to the streets’ ROW supported by justification and all necessary documents to the UPC for approval.

Utility Installation, Operation and Maintenance Overview

4.3.1 Introduction As a result of the adoption of the USDM, the need to allocate utility reservations under the carriageways and medians in the ROW will lead to unavoidable disruption of traffic when maintaining utilities in these reservations. The requirement to maintain these utilities will arise as a result of planned and unplanned maintenance / replacement activities. The following sub-sections provide possible utility installation, operation and maintenance techniques.

4.3.2 Installation of Utilities Installation of all utilities shall be carried out in accordance with the concerned authority / utility providers’ requirements and specifications. No installation shall be allowed prior to permission / approval of ADM, AAM, WRM, and DoT (as applicable) nor before the issuance of the final NOC by the concerned authorities / utility providers. All utilities shall be installed prior to the final finishing of roads and sidewalks in order to avoid the breaking up

of finished surfaces. Similarly, all house connections shall be installed up to the plot limit, to avoid cutting the surfaces for utility connections.

manner. All methods of construction and details of workmanship shall be subject to the control and approval of the authorities having jurisdiction.

During the installation of any utility, the developer shall ensure the safety of all adjacent utilities. The developer shall bear all responsibility and liability regarding any damage occurring to adjacent utilities.

Root barriers and / or root-directors shall be used in all tree pits, so as to direct the growth of the roots in a downward direction. During paving, the backfill surrounding the root barrier / root director must be compacted sufficiently to support the paved surface material and discourage roots that emerge from the base of the root director from reaching back up to the surface layers. The barrier must be installed from surface level to a minimum of 1.0m below surface level with joints overlapped by 300mm.

All utilities crossing the carriageway shall be encased in concrete if the minimum depth requirements cannot be achieved to protect the utility pipes / ducts from damage due to traffic loads. Also, any utility which is required to be placed under the sidewalk, but instead is placed under the carriageway due to space limitations, shall also be encased in concrete if the minimum depth requirement cannot be achieved. Where non-metallic pipes are installed, whether longitudinally or at crossings, a durable metal wire, or other approved means of detection, shall also be installed above the utility line. All excavations for pipe / cable installations shall be executed in strict accordance with the codes and requirements established by all utility providers and local authorities. Excavations shall be executed in a neat and satisfactory

Chapter 4-29

During utility installations, all existing roadways, sidewalks, curbing, trees and shrubs, open grass areas, and planting beds shall be protected from damage. All existing utilities in the work area, as they are encountered during excavation, shall be protected, supported and maintained. Shallow utilities, light poles or other devices may be temporarily re-routed or disconnected if pre-approved by the respective utility provider. Erosion control measures, required to prevent soil runoff from the construction area, shall be implemented.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 4 - Utility Corridor Desig

Bracing, shoring, dewatering, and sheathing to protect personnel and surrounding conditions shall be provided and installed as necessary. Existing paving bricks and marble pavers shall be removed carefully by hand and stacked for re-installation / reinstatement after utilities works are completed. All paved areas shall be saw cut; cuts shall be neat and straight. The contractor shall obtain permission from ADP prior to commencing any utility works within the streets.

4.3.2.1 Utility Corridor Surface Finish

The following guidelines shall be implemented in all cases:

The following section provides the basic guidelines for the required surface finish to utility corridors and the surface finish to exposed appurtenances.

• Bollards must only be used to prevent vehicles mounting footways and to limit vehicle access into pedestrian areas.

Currently, several utility accessories are installed above the finished surface of footpaths and pedestrian walkways. These include safety bollards, markers and vent pipes for water chambers. Since the objective of the Abu Dhabi Urban Street Design Manual and the Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual is to provide greater mobility and safety for non-vehicular traffic as well as a pleasant environment and safe place to walk / cycle, such protruding elements / obstructions to pedestrian movement must be minimized.

• All manhole covers, hydrants, service boxes and road gullies must be smooth and flush with the finished sidewalk and / or road level. • All protruding elements related to wet utilities such as vent pipes, etc. shall be removed and alternative options for providing the same function shall be considered; the designer shall submit the alternative details to concerned authorities for approval. • No protruding elements relating to electrical / power supply systems such as cable route / joint markers shall be installed; the designer shall submit alternative methods for identification and marking of cable routed and joint chambers to the respective agencies for approval. • Consideration shall be given to the visual effects of manholes, chambers and inspection covers laid within sidewalks and / or roads, such that their finish matches the material and / or color of the surrounding surface. The following general guidelines shall be considered:

Protruding elements are not allowed

Maintenance activities normally comprise the cleaning of pipes, due to the build-up of scale, accumulation of particles or bio-slime which can reduce the carrying capacity of the pipes. Pipeline rehabilitation methods use the existing pipes either to install a new pipeline or to support a new lining. These methods can be divided into two categories: non-structural and structural.

Chapter 4-32

Open-trench replacement is the most commonly used method for replacement of pressure mains. This method becomes challenging when working within developed areas where pipes may be beneath streets, sidewalks, etc. There are two basic types of open-trench replacement techniques: conventional and narrow. The conventional open-trench method uses the same approach as that used to place a new pipe. The narrow-trench replacement method is similar to conventional open-trench method; however, the trench width is kept to the absolute minimum possible. It is primarily used for the installation of polyethylene pipes. The best known trenchless replacement techniques are pipe bursting, micro-tunneling and horizontal directional drilling. Pipe Bursting: Pipe bursting is a method used for inserting a new pipe of equal or larger diameter to an existing pipeline by fragmenting the existing pipe and forcing the material into the surrounding soil. The new pipe then is inserted into the enlarged hole.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 4 - Utility Corridor Desig

Excavation is required for insertion and receiving pits. The liner pipe is normally PE or PVC. Micro-tunneling: Micro-tunneling involves the use of a remotely controlled, laser-guided, pipe-jacking

drilling (HDD) involves the installation of underground utilities by drilling horizontally creating a hole of sufficient size to pull the pipe through. HDD avoids open cuts, which makes it particularly attractive for crossing highways or other transportation corridors, rivers and streams, and for traversing environmentally sensitive areas.

system which forces a new pipe horizontally through the ground. This trenchless method can be costeffective compared to open-cut construction when pipelines are to be installed in congested urban or environmentally sensitive areas, at depths greater than 4.5 m, in unstable ground, or below the water table. Micro-tunneling can be used in a variety of soil conditions from soft clay to rock. It can be used at depths of up to 30m below the water table without dewatering. Horizontal Directional Drilling: Horizontal directional

Operation and maintenance of gravity systems can impose certain requirements on the manhole size / accessibility and / or pipe corridor width, in addition to the location of the network along the ROW. The operation and maintenance process is essential for maintaining a properly functioning system and comprises several activities such as inspection, cleaning, repair and replacement. Adopted methods shall be implemented with the objective of minimizing damage to adjacent utilities and to surfaces during the repair and / or maintenance. Regular inspection of the network is imperative in order to determine the network conditions and determine maintenance requirements. Inspection techniques include closed circuit television (CCTV), cameras, visual inspection, smoke / dye testing, and lamping inspection.

Chapter 4-33

Stoppages in gravity systems are usually caused either by structural defects or by an accumulation of material in the pipe. Accumulated material can include fats, oil, grease, sediment or other materials. Repair or elimination of any defects that contribute to a buildup of material in the pipe should be evaluated as part of a rehabilitation program since defects will always be a maintenance problem. Three methods are adopted for the cleaning of gravity systems: hydraulic, mechanical and chemical. Advanced technologies for the inspection and maintenance of gravity pipes could be adopted. Workers shall carry out inspection works from ground, eliminating the need to go into the sewer system, and consequently reduce requirements on frequency and dimensions of manholes. Two main approaches for the rehabilitation / repair of underground sewer pipes shall be adopted: the open trench method and the trenchless method. These are similar to the ones described for pressurized systems. Similar to pressurized systems, the trenchless replacement method shall also be adopted for replacing pipes by inserting a new pipe along the existing one. Trenchless technology can also be useful during pipe repair, by utilizing the pipe relining


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 4 - Utility Corridor Desig

technique. This technique creates a pipe within a pipe in order to restore function and flow. Epoxy relining materials are molded to the inside of the existing pipe to create a smooth new inner wall.

excavation works have to be undertaken. Excavation shall be conducted as follows:

4.3.3.3 Operation and Maintenance of Power Supply: HV, MV, LV, Street Lighting

• Since other utilities are located at closer proximity to the trench wall, precautions should be taken during excavation works to minimise damage to adjacent utilities.

TRANSCO and ADDC / AADC specifications require a life span for cables of at least 30 years in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. However, as repairs of faults, adding cables, and replacing defective cables occur consequently trenches need to be reopened to allow these operations to be undertaken.

• Generally, the use of mechanically operated equipment is not allowed near energized cables and consequently excavation by hand shall take place until the cable is reached and unearthed. The cable is then replaced or repaired (joints, etc.) depending on the fault.

In general, SL and HV cables are usually placed during or just after major infrastructure works have been completed. The addition of these types of cables to a trench is not common; however, the probability of reopening the trench for repairing faults or replacing defective cables is not uncommon. MV and LV cables are subject to higher intervention (LV cables more than MV cables) for maintenance purposes or establishing new connections. After detecting faults in underground cables, maintenance procedures to correct the fault or replace the cables can take place. To reach the cables,

4.3.3.4 Operation and Maintenance of Telecommunications Installations: Voice / Data, and Other Fiber Optic Installations Effective maintenance and troubleshooting of equipment requires a thorough understanding of equipment characteristics, operating procedures, theory of operation, knowledge of fiber optic theory and connection methods. Maintenance can reduce the possibility of malfunction. Usually the frequency for maintenance is very low and is normally event dependent.

Chapter 4-34

Qualified technical personnel shall open the manhole and gain access to perform scheduled works. For hand holes, the technicians can execute the splicing and jointing of cables from outside.

4.3.3.5 Operation and Maintenance of Gas Supply Pipes Operation and maintenance procedures are carried out as per GASCO’s requirements. Prior to repairing pipelines, the operating conditions, design, and maintenance history should be considered, as necessary, to ensure that repair operations do not further damage the pipe. Where warranted, the operating pressure should be lowered (if possible), pipe exposure should be limited, access to the area should be limited, personnel protection equipment should be provided and fire extinguishing equipment should be made available. Pipe-to-soil potential measurements should be taken at least once a year, but preferably at six-month intervals and also whenever there is an abnormal increase in current consumption. Measuring devices that read the potentials at the impressed current should be adjusted as necessary to maintain the proper pipeto-soil potential at all points along the pipeline. With sacrificial anode systems, anodes should be renewed


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 4 - Utility Corridor Desig

or additional anodes installed to maintain the correct protective potential level. It is mandatory to check the condition of steel valves once every three months, while polyethelyne (PE) valves should be inspected once every six months. It is essential to comply with the requirements summarized in Table ‎4.23 when a natural gas line or other underground gas infrastructure is uncovered.

Table ‎4.23: Minimum Space Requirements from Gas Installations during Utility Repair Minimum Distance (mm)

Operating Pressure Covered Pipes 2900 kPa (420 psi) and less Over 2900 kPa (420 psi) Uncovered Pipes Under 2400 kPa (350 psi) 2400-2900 kPa (350-420 psi) 2900 kPa (420 psi)

When a drilling path that runs along a gas line is 3.0m or less from the markers put in place by the gas installation provider excavations must be performed at intervals of no more than 10.0m along the entire drilling path so that the specific location of the drilling head, backreamers (if any) and the structure put in place can be checked visually. These excavations must be sufficiently wide to make it possible to see the items (drilling head, structure, etc.) that lead from the entry point to the exit point for their entire width. No drilling installation shall be performed within 1.0m from the markers put in place by the gas installation provider.

Utility Arrangement Special Details


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 5 - Utility Corridor Guideline

5.1 Introduction The typical utility corridor sections provided in this Manual were prepared, taking into consideration all of the requirements discussed in previous chapters. Each section should be read / interpreted in conjunction with the general notes as well as the section-specific notes. The allocated corridor for each utility is the maximum allowed for the utility, unless otherwise stated. The number and width of utility corridors for each utility have been allocated based on the expected demands / discharges taking into consideration the context type, the street category, and ultimate capacity calculations. The type / nature of connections to the plots, and the crossing requirements were also considered. Additional factors include the utility providers’ requirements, operation and maintenance constraints and safety issues. During the design process, the designer should take into consideration that the corridor width required by the UCDM for each utility generally increases with the street type. As such, networks should be designed to have the primary lines in the larger street families and to avoid proposing large pipes in smaller streets. In instances where the design necessitates a wider corridor to allow for the installation of a large pipe in a small street, or where the allocated corridor width is not sufficient, the designer shall seek the UPC’s

approval for increasing the ROW. The UPC’s review and approval shall be based on the documents submitted by the designer which shall include justification for increasing the ROW.

5.2 Utility Corridors Disposition / Arrangement

Finally, the UCDM allows for a high degree of flexibility in design, whereby the required corridors cater for most design scenarios that may be encountered.

The USDM defines the city context as a development with tall buildings, 7 storeys or more. As such, most buildings have their own transformers and a high portion of the power supply / distribution corridors are expected to be of the medium voltage (MV) type, 22kV or 11kV. Also, the major share of utility demand is of a domestic nature.

The proposed sections are provided for the absolute minimum and standard minimum street families’ ROW as determined by the USDM. If the designer is faced with a situation whereby the street ROW is smaller than the sizes defined in this Manual, alternatives for utility arrangements shall be submitted to the UPC for approval; these deviations shall be treated on a caseby-case basis. However, if the street ROW is larger than the ROW’s defined in this Manual, the utility arrangements shall be in accordance with those specified in this Manual for the smaller ROW. However, in such instances, relocation of utilities from the carriageway to the sidewalk may be allowed as indicated in Section 4.1 of the Manual. Under no circumstances can utility corridors larger than those specified in this Manual be implemented without prior approval from the UPC. Typical plans showing the required surface finish above utilities is shown in Figure 5 ‎ .1 and a typical plan showing the staggering of chambers is shown in Figure ‎5.2.

Chapter 5-2

5.2.1

City Context

Table 5 ‎ .1 to Table ‎5.4 outline the corridor requirements for the various utilities for different street families within the city context. Since the access lane within this context is defined as service road, only power cables, district cooling, stormwater drainage, irrigation and street lighting / trees shall be considered. In instances where power cables and / or district cooling system corridors are not needed, the designer may relocate utilities to the service roads as described under section 4.1. Typical sections (examples) showing the utility arrangement for a typical type of each street family within the city context are shown in Figure 5.3 to Figure 5.6 based on the minimum ROW. The complete set of sections for all street family types, along with illustrative plans are provided in Annex A based on the minimum ROW.

Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 5 - Utility Corridor Guideline

5.2.2 Town Context The USDM defines the Town Context as a development with mid-rise buildings, ranging between three and six storeys. Consequently, while some buildings will have their own substations, others will rely on an off-site substation for their power supply and consequently require an LV supply cable. Therefore, the power supply / distribution corridors are expected to be of both the medium voltage (MV) type and the low voltage (LV) type. LV cables are also required to supply feeder pillars, service turrets, GSM towers and control cabinets for street lighting and ITS. They are also needed at times to deliver power to pumping stations.

As in the case of the city context, the major share of utility demand is of a domestic nature, and utilities to be installed within the access lanes comprise power cables, district cooling, storm drainage and street lighting / trees only. In instances where power cables and / or district cooling system corridors are not required on the service roads, the designer may relocate utilities from under the carriageway on the front street to the service road in accordance with the guidelines given in Section 4.1.

Chapter 5-8

Table 5 ‎ .5 to Table 5 ‎ .8 outline the corridor requirements for the various utilities for the different street families within the town context. Typical sections showing the utility arrangement for typical types of each street family are shown in Figure ‎5.7 to Figure ‎5.10. The complete set of utility arrangements for all street families based on the minimum ROW within this context are provided in Annex A.

Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 5 - Utility Corridor Guideline

5.2.3 Commercial Context The commercial context mainly comprises offices, retail activities, malls and commercial centers, which constitute the main contributors to utility demands. The access lane within this context is a service road only housing power cables, district cooling, stormwater drainage, street lighting and trees. As indicated in the city and town contexts, relocation of utilities from under the carriageway to the service road may be allowed as per the guidelines given in Section 4.1.

Table 5.9 to Table 5.12 outline the corridor requirements for the various utilities for the different street families within the Commercial Context. Typical sections showing the utility arrangement for all street families based on the minimum ROW are shown in Figure 5.11 to Figure 5.14.

Chapter 5-13

All other options for utility arrangements for all street families based on the minimum ROW within this context are provided in Annex A.

Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 5 - Utility Corridor Guideline

5.2.4 Residential and Emirati Neighborhood Context The residential context, as defined by the USDM, is a development with low-rise buildings (three storeys high) and / or villas. The Emirati neighborhood is a special type of the residential context exclusively reserved for UAE Nationals. As previously stated, the UCDM defines special access lanes for the Emirati neighborhood Contexts.

Since most buildings / villas are limited in height, low voltage (LV) power supply is extensively required within the residential and Emirati neighborhood context. District cooling corridors, on the other hand, are not considered as per current practice. Finally, and as in the case of the two previous contexts, the major share of utility demand is of a domestic nature.

Chapter 5-18

Table 5.13 to Table 5.17 outline the corridor requirements for the various utilities within the different street families for these contexts. Typical sections showing the utility arrangement within typical types of street families are shown in Figure 5.15 to Figure 5.19. The complete set of utility arrangements for all street families within this context are provided in Annex A.

Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 5 - Utility Corridor Guideline

5.2.5 Industrial Context The industrial context requires higher demands for certain utilities, mainly power and district cooling, which in turn necessitates larger corridors than those required for the previous contexts. For heavy industry zones special utility arrangements shall be prepared and discussed on a case-by-case basis with the UPC. Table 5.18 to Table 5.21 outline the corridor requirements for the various street families and the utilities to be installed within the industrial context.

As indicated previously, the designer shall use the requirements of the USDM for defining the ROW of streets, in particular where truck traffic is expected, the travel lane width may be increased in accordance with the widths given in the USDM. However, such an increase in the ROW of streets shall be strictly based on the expected vehicle types. Utility corridors’ widths shall be in accordance with the specified widths in this Manual. Increasing the utility corridor width shall be subject to UPC approval.

Chapter 5-24

Typical sections showing the utility arrangement for all street families are shown in Figure 5.20 to Figure 5.23. All other options for utility arrangements for all street families based on the minimum ROW within this context are provided in Annex A.

Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 5 - Utility Corridor Guideline

5.3 Utility Details

Arrangement

Special

In addition to the typical utility disposition details previously discussed for the different street types, and to ensure proper laying / installation of details, this Manual also presents typical details for special instances that could be encountered within urban areas. These include typical utility layouts at street intersections, utility dispositions along bridges and utility tunnels.

5.3.1 Intersections During the installation of utilities along urban streets, several intersections are likely to be encountered, whereby the street intersects with a street of the same family type or a street of higher or lower family. For example, a boulevard is allowed to intersect with a boulevard, an avenue or a street. Intersections are not allowed between streets that have more than a two level difference; for example, a boulevard is not allowed to intersect with an access lane. Typical arrangements of utility crossings at intersections can only be provided for guidance, whereby the best practice for installing utilities is considered. For example, gravity sewer installations generally do not form a grid and generally laterals connect to mains at

intersections. As for a water supply system, it is expected that all lines running within a street will continue to the other street and will connect to lines installed in lateral streets to form a grid / loop of the network. With regard to electrical cables, it is expected that HV and MV cables running along major streets, for example boulevards and avenues, will continue along the main street and, as needed, on the intersecting streets, whereas LV cables would be confined within the block, crossing intersections between the smaller types of streets. In instances where a local access lane intersects another access lane, as shown in Figure 5.24 and Figure 5.25, the designer shall grade the access lanes away from the intersection so as to avoid gravity lines (wastewater and stormwater) from running through the intersection and maintain the minimum width of the corridors. In instances where this condition is not achievable, the designer may allow running gravity lines through the intersection after obtaining Municipalitiy / utility providers’ approval. In addition, a typical intersection between a boulevard and a street is also shown for guidance. In this case three options are given as shown in Figure 5.24 to

Chapter 5-29

Figure 5.31. The options are given to provide design flexibility whereby the first applies to any direction of flow in the gravity systems, namely sewer and storm, while the remaining two apply for specific directions of flows as indicated on the corresponding figures. The details are provided for guidance only and the designer shall prepare details for utility disposition / arrangements at intersections based on the intersection dimensions, types of streets, utilities encountered, and site conditions. These shall be treated on a case-bycase basis during detailed design. While preparing the details, the designer shall optimize on the number of manholes / chambers but shall not place any manhole / chamber in such a way that access to this manhole / chamber requires the closure of more than one lane along the intersection. Vertical arrangements at intersections should also be considered. As a general guideline the following shall be applied: • All utilities shall be installed in accordance with the relevant authorities and utility providers requirements in which minimum covers / depth are specified. Under all conditions, this minimum cover shall be respected at intersections. • All minimum vertical clearances required by relevant authorities and utility providers shall be respected.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 5 - Utility Corridor Guideline

• To traverse a major obstacle, such as a highway, railway, or waterway.

• In general, pressurized pipes and / or cables are installed above gravity pipes. Since, pressurized pipes / cables have more flexibility in terms of depth compared to gravity pipes these can be installed below gravity pipes as long as the necessary protection is provided, whenever required. Moreover, the utility corridor arrangement may be modified at road bends to account for the need to install manholes at bends for gravity systems as well as to allow for the minimum bending radius for flexible installations. It is the designer’s responsibility to provide the most optimized configuration in order to reduce the number of manholes at road bends while maintaining the travel lane width and increasing, if necessary, the pedestrian section width.

5.3.2 Roundabouts Roundabouts may also be encountered within developments and as such, typical arrangements for utility installation are included in Figure ‎5.32 and Figure ‎5.33 for guidance. Generally, no utilities are allowed to cross underneath the roundabout, except those that are installed in the median. All utilities installed under sidewalks and travel lanes shall continue under the same type of surface within the roundabout section. For example, water lines shall

• To provide a direct pedestrian route, such as between an elevated Metro station and a shopping mall or a park. • Where there are extensive pedestrian flows, such as at a stadium.

continue as the first utility under the sidewalk and cross on the perpendicular street to continue under the sidewalk on the opposite street. The designer shall ensure that gravity lines do not cross under roundabouts, a T-type connection through manholes installed under the asphalt shall be implemented. Similar arrangements shall be applied for other utilities, as shown in Figure ‎5.32. All manufacturers requirements such as maximum bending radii shall be met.

5.3.3 Interchanges As indicated in the USDM, grade separations (bridges and tunnels / underpasses) shall not be used on streets covered by the USDM, except if approved by the UPC and DoT. They may be considered only in the following situations:

Chapter 5-30

The utility installations along interchanges / grade separated intersections shall follow the guidelines defined in subsequent sections for bridges. In addition, in the case of an underpass where the utilities shall be installed at the same level of the tunnel and not on the on-grade service roads, the installation of the utilities shall follow the guidelines provided in subsequent sections for utility tunnels. The utilities shall be installed in a tunnel at the same level of the vehicular tunnel. Access to the utility tunnel shall be provided in accordance with the design of the underpass / vehicular tunnel.

5.3.4 Bridges Bridges may also be encountered while installing utilities within urban settings, though at a lower frequency than intersections. Bridges may be encountered at grade separated intersections, and at crossings over canals or rivers.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 5 - Utility Corridor Guideline

Generally only pressure lines, such as water, irrigation, district cooling and wastewater force mains, as well as power and telecommunication cables are installed on bridges. Gravity lines, such as wastewater and stormwater drainage pipes are installed on grade and in case of water crossings they are installed in submarine installations. Whenever a bridge is encountered, the utility arrangement shall be discussed on a case-by-case basis. The designer shall submit the utility arrangement details for approval by Municipalities, DoT and Utility Providers taking into consideration visual impacts of such utilities as well as ease of accessibility for maintenance purposes.

5.3.5 Utility Tunnel A utility tunnel may be required for boulevards with absolute minimum Right-of-Way where the Right-ofWay may not be sufficient for installing all the utilities, while respecting the utility providers / agencies corridor requirements. A utility tunnel is considered an optimal solution to avoid underground crowding of utilities in narrow Right-of-Ways. However the use of utility tunnels shall be justified and subject to the approval of UPC. It can only be considered for a limited number of cases

over short distances. One of the major issues to be considered for the implementation of utility tunnels is that through all phases of planning, financing, construction, and operation, the cooperation and agreement of all concerned parties should be ensured. An NOC from the Civil Defense Department should be obtained. In addition, the policies and practices of government, public and private utility providers, and the various regulatory bodies should be considered. Generally, pressure lines, such as water, irrigation, district cooling, as well as power and telecommunication cables, are installed within the utility tunnels. Gravity lines, such as wastewater and stormwater drainage are normally avoided in tunnels due to difficulties in ensuring the minimum slopes necessary for gravity flow which might have implications for the tunnel grade / slope and depth causing deeper excavations and higher costs. In addition, gas lines are sometimes avoided in tunnels to reduce risks of explosion that may be caused by accidents and / or heat dissipation from power cables. The following considerations shall be accounted for in designing utility tunnels:

Chapter 5-31

• Wet utilities shall be separated from the dry utilities and installed in a separate compartment. • Tunnels shall be designed to be a walk-through system. Tunnels shall be designed to provide walkway access, and allow for removal and replacement of valves, expansion joints etc. • Tunnels shall typically have a minimum of 4.0m clear interior height. • Tunnels shall not be less than 4.0m wide. This width is intended to accommodate not less than

a 1.0m interior clear walkway width between the anticipated utility lines and their support systems. • Tunnels shall be accessible through on-grade entrances with sloped hatches and sloping walkways. • Tunnels shall be properly ventilated; ventilation shafts shall be constructed at a minimum spacing of 50-75m or as deemed necessary based on actual tunnel dimensions.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 5 - Utility Corridor Guideline

• Lighting shall be designed to maintain a minimum light level of 150 LUX at the walk surface. • Tunnels shall be equipped with a gantry for lifting heavy equipment, such as valves. • The utility tunnels shall support their own weight as well as the weight of all installed equipment in (or on) the structures. The utility tunnels shall support the weight and forces of all movable and active components and systems in (or on) the structures. • Utility tunnels shall be equipped with fire detection and alarm systems. • Firewalls may be required to isolate sections of the tunnel during a fire event, as per the local authority requirements. • Tunnels shall include an emergency escape. • Wet utilities tunnels shall include floor drains draining into a sump. • Tunnels shall include a CCTV system.

For example, the steel cable trays shall be able to carry the weight of the proposed number of cables.

Chapter 5-32

• Cable joints shall not be allowed in tunnels. • Utility pipes and cables shall be secured and fixed in their locations in the tunnel; for example, cables shall be supported with cable cleats every 1.0 – 1.5m. Typical configurations of utility tunnels are shown in Figure 5.34 and Figure 5.35.


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 5 - Utility Corridor Guideline

Advantages of Utility Tunnels include: • Utility tunnels provide easier accessibility to utilities for maintenance, upgrading and future expansion. • Utility tunnels can also minimize environmental impacts like noise, vibration, dust, disruption to traffic and services, street maintenance requirements.

Limitations / disadvantages of Utility Tunnels include: • One of the major problems of utility tunnels is the high initial construction cost as compared to traditional open excavation methods. • Another major problem is the issue of compatibility between the utilities housed in the tunnel. A defect in one system may adversely affect the other systems. There has been considerable concern about compatibility between utilities, issues such as induction between electrical and communication lines, gas conduits explosion hazards, in tunnel temperature rising due to heating and electrical lines.

5.3.6 Utility Arrangement within Roads with Metro / Tram Lanes The Abu Dhabi Urban Street Design Manual provides sections for guidance where transit lanes for Metro and tram are included. The DoT requirements for the Right-of-Ways of these facilities shall be respected. In instances where dedicated lanes for Metro and tram is introduced, the ROW of the streets shall be increased to accommodate the ROW of these facilities as per the requirements of DoT. The utility corridors arrangements and dispositions shall be maintained as per the requirements of this Manual. However, the power supply corridor for the tram shall be within the tram corridor in coordination with DoT. Furthermore, no utilities shall be permitted longitudinally beneath / under the Metro / tram ROW, except for power cables supply of the tram. However, crossings shall be permitted subject to the approval of DoT. In all instances when there is a potential interface / interaction between utilities and the Metro / tram lane, the designer shall consult with DoT for approval.

Chapter 5-33

In instances where an underground Metro is used, the designer shall submit the proposed arrangement of utilities for UPC, DoT and utility provider for approval using the minimum utility corridor widths given in this Manual and / or following the guidelines provided in the Manual for installation of utilities within utility tunnels. For guidance, two typical arrangements for utility reservations within streets that include a Metro / tram lane are included in this Manual, as shown in Figure 5.36 and Figure 5.37.

Updating the Manual


Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) Chapter 6 - Evaluation and Updates

6.1 Introduction This Manual was developed in 2011 as the Abu Dhabi Utility Corridor Design Manual (UCDM) to complement the Abu Dhabi Urban Street Design Manual (USDM), with extensive input and review by a Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) that included the Urban Planning Council (UPC), all utility providers and governmental authorities listed in Section 2.

This Manual shall be regularly updated and will aspire to always reflect and incorporate any changes that might arise within the social environment in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi and any changes in the design standards of the relevant utilities or authorities.

6.2

Review Committee

Since methods and procedures for utility installations will change with time, based on the advancement of technologies, a permanent review committee will be established, with members of the TAC to represent each of the concerned stakeholders to ensure that this Manual is updated on a regular basis. The frequency of the Review Committee meetings shall be determined by the TAC in the future. However, it is recommended that biannual meetings be convened to evaluate and address any issues and / or concerns arising from the application of this Manual to incorporate any revisions resulting from modifications to current practices in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi.

It shall be adopted as the reference document for the design of utility corridors width and location within urban streets throughout the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. Similar to the USDM, the UCDM shall be updated periodically. Any changes introduced to the USDM should be reflected in updated versions of the UCDM. Moreover, apart from updates resulting from changes to the USDM, updates to the UCDM will be necessary due to changes in design standards, changes in design philosophies, and the adoption of new technologies. The updating of the UCDM, and the management of all updates, shall be undertaken by the UPC.

The Review Committee recommendations are expected to be incorporated in this Manual in the following ways: i) Release of circulars as addenda to this Manual for immediate implementation; or, ii) Included in the updated revisions / versions of this Manual.

Updating the Manual

This Manual will be reviewed periodically, and updated / revised periodically, consequently the proposed revisions /updates will be posted on UPC Website for a period of 60 days prior to implementation. It is the responsibility of all designers using this Manual to ensure that the most updated / current edition of this Manual is used. The updated Manual editions shall be made available through the UPC Website and at the below address: Abu Dhabi Urban Planning Council (UPC) Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates P.O.Box 62221 Telephone: +971 (0) 2 409 6000 Fax: +971 (0) 2 443 9443 E-mail: info@upc.gov.ae Web-site: www.upc.gov.ae
