The pipe shall be placed where the ground for the foundation is reasonably firm. If
the soil at the bed level of the pipe is soft, spongy or other unsuitable soil, it shall
be removed to such depth, width and length as directed by the Engineer and the
extra depth shall be backfilled with approved granular material and compacted up
to specified level.
If bed-rock or boulder strata are encountered, excavation shall be taken down to at
least 200 mm below the bottom level of the pipe in accordance with the Para-4 of
the Cl. No. 2904 of MORT&H.
Excavation shall consist of the removal of the material for the construction of
foundation for apron, head wall and other similar structures, in accordance with

PIPE JOINTING:
The pipe shall be jointed by flush joint. Flush joint may be internal flush joint or
external flush joint. In either case, the ends of the pipes shall be specially shaped
to form a self centering joint with a jointing space 13 mm wide. The jointing space
shall be filled with cement mortar, I cement to 2 sand, mixed sufficiently dry to
remain in position when forced with a trowel or rammer. Care shall be taken to fill
all voids and excess mortar shall be removed
BACK FILLING:
Immediately after the pipes have been laid and the jointing material has hardened
the trench will be backfilled. The backfilling will be done in accordance with Cl.
No. 2907 of the MORT&H.
Backfilling up to 300 mm above the top of the pipe shall be done carefully and the
soil shall be thoroughly rammed, tamped or vibrated in layers not exceeding 200
mm. The gaps between two adjacent pipes shall also be filled in the same
procedure as explained above.
