disturb, damage or overload the finished concrete work or the structure. No props shall be removed without
the approval of the Engineer. The Contractor shall inform the Engineer before removal of any formwork. The
time at which the formwork is removed shall be the Contractors responsibility subject to the minimum periods
between completion of any concreting and removal of forms as given in Clause 11.3 of IS: 456-2000. Support
lower slab: Considering the large spans and consequently large dead loads on the slabs, the lower slabs
shall also be suitably supported / propped to ensure that no excessive loads are imposed. Such propping
shall be kept in place as directed by the Engineer. Should the Contractor wish to reduce these striking times,
he must satisfy the Engineer that the strength of the concrete at such time and the structural system is
adequate to withstand the dead and imposed loads applied to it. Before reducing the striking times the
Engineers agreement shall be obtained in writing.
In case of special structures, such as shells, folded plates, etc., the sequence of removal of forms shall be as
per drawings or as directed by the Engineer. In case of cantilever slabs, the removal of forms shall begin
from the outer edge and proceed towards the support, where as in the case of slabs supported on two/four
sides, the removal of forms shall begin from centre to supports. Formwork to cantilevers shall be removed
only with the approval of the Engineer.
Formwork props shall be positioned between permanent supports such that the members are supported at
maximum 3m centres in both directions. When, in the opinion of the Engineer, the striking of formwork should
be detrimental to or may prejudice the safety of the structure, the formwork shall be left in.
The Contractor shall be responsible for the demolition and re-concreting of any damaged or defective work
howsoever caused, at his own expense. The use of epoxy for bonding fresh concrete shall be carried out as
directed by the Engineer at no extra cost.
If the props are to be left in place whilst the soffit forms to slabs and beams are to be removed, the props
shall be so designed as to remain in position throughout the striking process without having to be temporarily
removed. The use of props designed so that a few can be taken away at a time and replaced immediately
shall be subject to the Engineers prior approval. No construction loads shall be supported from any unshored portion of the structure under construction. The number of floors requiring propping shall be as
instructed by the Engineer according to the design loads of such floors.

Laying:
The flooring shall be divided into panels so as to reduce the risk of cracking. The size of panels shall not
exceed 2sqm. The length of the panel shall not exceed 11/2 times its breadth. Panel shall be formed using
glass strips, the depth of which shall be equal to combined thickness of the base concrete and the topping.
The screed strip shall be coated with thick coat of lime wash so as to prevent them sticking to the concrete
deposited in the panels. The glass strips shall be so arranged that joints, if any, in the base concrete shall
coincide with the joints in the topping.
The base concrete and the topping shall be laid in alternate bays. At least 48 hours shall elapse before the
concreting in the adjoining bays is commenced. If Glass strips or approved separators are provided as
specified, then cement concrete flooring shall be laid in one operation. This method shall ensure uniformity in
colour of all the panels and straightness at the junction of the panels.
The concrete shall be deposited between the glass strips, thoroughly tamped and the surface screeded
uniformly below the desired finished grade of flooring to accommodate the required thickness of the topping.
Any slope desired in the floor finish shall be given in the base concrete. The surface shall not be finished
smooth but kept rough to provide adequate bond for the topping. The topping shall be laid monolithically on
the clean green surface of the base concrete not less than 2 to 3 hours of laying the base concrete or can be
laid on hardened concrete as in bonded construction
The concrete shall be vigorously sliced and spaded with suitable tools to prevent formation of voids or
honeycomb pockets. The concrete shall be brought to the specified level by means of a heavy straight edge
resting on the side forms and drawn ahead with sawing motion in combination with a series of lifts and drops
alternating with small lateral shifts. After striking of the surface to the required level it shall be compacted with
wooden float. The floating shall be followed by steel trowelling after the surface hardened sufficiently to
prevent excess of fine material from working to the surface. The finish shall be brought to a smooth and even
surface free from defects and blemishes and checked with straight edges and masons spirit level to detect
any inequalities. If broom finish is specifically mentioned in the item, the surface shall be obtained rough with
parallel broom marks before concrete sets.
The surface shall be protected from direct sun when it is green. As soon as the surface has hardened
sufficiently to prevent damage to it, it shall be kept continuously moist for at least 10 days by means of wet
gunny bags or 50mm thick layer of damp sand spread over the surface or pooling water on the surface.

Testing and Acceptance


The Sanitary appliances shall be generally tested for the following :
1) Water Tests - The water tests shall be applied before the appliances are connected & May
be carried out in sections so as to limit the static head to 4.5m. It is
necessary to Seal
all the openings affected by the test & provide support to the
plugs used as Stoppers.
A) The testing plug at the upper end of the ventillating pipe should be fitted with a tee piece with
a cock on each branch, one branch being connected by a flexible tube to a manometer. Air
pressure is then introduced into the system through the other branch of the tee- piece until the
desired pressure is shown on the manometer scale. The pressure applied should be equal to
65 mm water gauge and should remain constant for a period of three minutes to provide the
soundness of the installation.
B) Alternatively the air pressure may be applied by passing a flexible tube from a tee - piece
attached to a manometer through the water seal of the sanitary appliance, the test then
being carried out as described in A.
2) Smoke Test - Fault indicated by the air tests may be located by pumping smoke into the
system with a smoke machine. Care should be taken to ensure that the system is filled
with smoke before sealing with the plugs.
3) Hydraulic Performances - Discharge tests should be made from all the
appliances, singly & collectively. Obstruction in any of the pipe lines should be
traced &
the whole system examined for proper hydraulic performances , including the retention of any
adequate water in each trap .The sanitary fixtures form the final terminal units of the water
supply and drainage system and should meet the performance needs as a terminal unit. Each
fixture shall be inspected for scratches or chippings and alignment before acceptance.
The following design flows shall be verified and validated for acceptance.

Testing
Ones an installation is completed and cored as per above mentioned recommendation, the
system should be hydrostatically pressure tested at 150 pes (10 Bar) for one hour. During
pressure testing the system should be fitted with water and if a leak is found the joint should be
cut out and replacing the same with new one by using couplers.

Solvent Cement
Only CPVC solvent cement conforming to ASTMF 493 should be used for jointing pipe with
fittings and valves. Flow guard CPVC cement solvent have a minimum shelf life of 1 year. Aged
cement solvent will often change colour or being to thicken and become gelatinous or jelly like
and when this happens the cement should not be used. The cement solvent should be used
within 30 days after opening the companys seal and tightly close the seal after using in order to
avoid its freazing. Frazzled cement solvent should be discarded immediately and fresh one
should be used. The CPVC solvent cement usage should be adhered to as given in table below.
