harbour, approaching to the Docks.
Kanhoji Angre Lighthouse is situated on Kanhoji Angre Island. Kanhoji Angre
Island, earlier known as Khanderi (Kennery) island is an off shoot hillock of the
western Ghats and is situated mid sea off the shores of Thal Fishing village
near Alibagh of Raigad district, south of Mumbai. The island is about 4.5 km
by sea from Thal, 9.5km from Alibag and about 23km from the Gateway of
India in Mumbai.

3.3 Brief Scope of Work – The development of tourist destination is


based on the concept idea detailed below. The scope of work of the Project
to be executed by the selected Bidder on EPC basis.
(i) Design Approach
The Key Elements that should be considered in the design approach are
summarized below,
 To comply with the primary theme adopted for the development in the
lighthouse site, which shall be day time tourism with adventure sports /
water sports activities with supporting eateries, resting camps, etc. all in
temporary / wooden structures on land adjoining the lighthouse site and
other land earmarked for such activities.
 Evolving a concept which comply with the terrain & topography of the site,
by minimizing the cut and fill component.
 Compliance to the Development control regulations applicable for the site,
 Eco-friendly development which is low on energy usage in terms of
building materials as well as usage.
 Adaptive reuse of existing structures/buildings/rooms etc as the island falls
within the CRZ regulation. Activity zoning aims to take care of segregation
of Tourism Activities / Public Activities from that of MbPT / DGLL’s / static
sensor’s day to day operational, administrational & residential activities in
order to avoid any conflict of activities.
(ii) Proposed Project Component / Project Facilities
MbPT envisages enhancing and developing the existing lighthouse and its
surrounding area into a Tourism Destination / Maritime Landmark on EPC
mode.
One of the identified lighthouse locations for promotion of tourism is the
Kanhoji Angre Lighthouse near Mumbai. As site falls within 200m from HTL
in CRZ III, permanent construction is not allowed. So, temporary structures
are proposed to be setup such as restaurant, cafeteria, daytime camping
sites with tented accommodation and daytime water sport/adventure
sports activities with support infrastructure. Besides these the EPC

Page 44
contractor has to create some of the common infrastructure
(kutcha/temporary structures) at the island for general / local visitors.
(iii) Brief of Proposed Project Components
The Daytime tourism activities, consisting of adventure sports and water
sports are proposed to be developed in the Kanhoji Angre Island adjoining the
western boundary of the lighthouse site admeasuring around 12 acres. The
profile of the land slopes upwards from South to North with the sea on
western side. It is proposed to develop supporting facilities consisting of
wooden / kutcha structures which preserves and makes use of the natural
features that are unique to the site.
The project structure now envisages that the Kanhoji Angre island shall be a
hub of water sports and camping / outdoor activities, which are possible to be
carried out in areas of 5-10 acres and on an island having a sea front on all
sides. This destination shall be accessible easily with boats from Mumbai and
Alibagh and shall target the tourist from these circuits to start with.

Quantities/the Price Schedule, if in the opinion of the Engineer/Engineer’s Representative, the same shall be
applicable. If the Contract does not contain any rates or prices applicable to the varied work, the rates and

Provided that if the nature or amount of any varied work relative to the nature of amount of the whole of the
works or to any part thereof, is such that, in the opinion of the Engineer, the rate or the price contained in the
Contract for any items of the works is by reason of such varied works rendered inappropriate or inapplicable,
then after due consultation by the Engineer with the Contractor, a suitable rate or price shall be agreed upon
between the Engineer and the Contractor. In the event of disagreement, the Engineer shall fix such other rate
or price as is, in his opinion, appropriate and shall notify the Contractor accordingly. Until such time as rates
or prices are agreed or fixed, the Engineer shall determine provisional rates or prices to enable on accounts
payments to be included in certificates issued in accordance with Clause 5.55 [Certificates And Payments].

iii. Rainfall
The climate of the region has a regular seasonal variation determined by the occurrence of
two annual monsoons. The southwest monsoon period extends from June to September.
November to March is the period for the north-east monsoon. Most of the annual rainfall
occurs during the southwest monsoon, the average monthly rainfall being about 45 cm. Rain
during the northeast monsoon is slight. The average annual rainfall over 20 years is 193 cm.

iv. Tides
The dominant tide in the Mumbai Harbour is semi-diurnal tide with a period of 12 hours and
40 minutes. The following are the particulars of certain tidal levels related to both Town Hall
Datum and Chart Datum :

Above Town Hall Above (+) or below (-)

Mean Low Water Spring Tides. 22.71 m + 0.76 m.
Lowest Low Water recorded. 21.49 m - 0.46 m.
Highest Low Water 24.69 m + 2.74m

v. Current
The currents in the harbour waters are essentially caused by the tides, and are not influenced to any
extent by monsoons, etc. The tidal flow is unsteady and the magnitude and direction of the current
varies with respect to location, time and depth. Generally the ebb currents are stronger than flood
currents.

vi. Wave
The predominant waves entering the site of the proposed Works are the swell waves generated by
deep sea storms. These mainly arise just before and during the South West monsoon. The wave
height at the site of Works is generally not expected to exceed 1.5 m. The statistical analysis also
indicates that most wave periods fall between 6 seconds and 10 seconds.
During the continuance of the North-east monsoon, north-easterly winds known as “Elephantas”
blow for short durations during the months of October-November.

This section covers the workmanship, special requirements & regulations with which the contractor
must comply to achieve the following two objectives:
a) The provision, at all locations on the site, of dense workable concrete, having the specified
characteristic strength.
b) The mixing and placing of concrete at all elevations, well compacted by vibrations, in well
aligned and well fixed formwork ensuring the internal and external dimensions of structures
as per approved drawings and maintaining the size, shape, number and locations of
reinforcements, inserts etc. as per the drawings, providing the surface finish after stripping
off the formwork to ensure the structural configurations as well as within the specified
tolerance limits, curing and guaranteeing the characteristic strength, all as specified.

1. Qualified Personnel, Labour & Equipment


A fully qualified and experienced concrete quality control Engineer shall be employed by the
Contractor and shall be available on Site at all times when concreting is taking place. The Contractor
shall also provide all necessary supervision, labour, material, equipment and tools to carry out the
concreting work as described below.

2. Mix Design
The Contractor shall design the concrete mix and make preliminary tests to determine the
proportions by weight of cement, fine aggregates, coarse aggregates and water necessary to produce
required grades of concrete. The design of mixes shall be made according to I.S. 10262-1982 or any
other approved standard methods through any of the reputed Institute to be approved by the
Engineer / Engineer’s Representative.

Page 219
The Contractor shall furnish full details of the preliminary tests on each class of concrete along with
the relevant calculations for approval of the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative. The Contractor
shall start concreting only after getting the approval of the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative for
such mix proportions.
However, such approval shall not relieve the Contractor of his responsibility to produce concrete
having compressive strengths as mentioned in the specifications /drawings.
No departure from the approved proportions will be permitted during the works unless and until the
Engineer / Engineer’s Representative gives written authorisation for any change in proportion. The
Engineer / Engineer’s Representative shall have authority at any time to check whether the mixing of
concrete is being carried out according to the approved proportions
The concrete made by designing the mix is termed hereinafter as "Design Mix Concrete".
For the purpose of general guidance, Table-5 of IS 456-2000 shall be followed for minimum cement
content, maximum water cement ratio & min. grade of concrete. However, minimum cement
content of 400 kg/m3 and a maximum water cement ratio of 0.45 shall be maintained for all grades
of concrete.

3. Water/Cement Ratio
Once the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative approves a mix the same shall be maintained and
shall not be varied without the permission of the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative, including the
water/cement ratio. Maximum water / cement ratio shall never exceed the value given in the IS 456-
2000 and IS 4651 for various exposures.
In the structures where the impermeability and shrinkage of concrete have an important bearing on
the durability and serviceability of the structures, such as exposed structures near sea side, thin pre-
cast members etc. the water cement ratio shall be kept low.

4. Workability
The workability of fresh concrete shall be such that the concrete is just suitable for the conditions of
handling and placing so that after compaction it becomes completely consistent and homogeneously
surrounds all the reinforcement and completely fills the formwork.
The workability of fresh concrete at the place of batching / mixing shall be ensured by proper test
and at the place of disposition by means of slump test. During the finalisation of Trial Mixes, the
relationship between compacting factor and slump test shall be established for each grade of
concrete as well as for various levels of workability. In cases where the cement content is to be
limited to reduce the heat of hydration, and the water/cement ratio is also to be kept low to reduce
the permeability or due to other requirements the desired workability may be achieved with use of
limited doses of approved admixtures or air entraining agent. In such cases the method of mixing and
dosage of the admixture / air-entraining agent shall be according to the manufacturer's specification
and with the approval of the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative.
The degree of workability of concrete depends on the mix proportion. Suggested ranges of
workability of concrete shall be in accordance with IS: 1199 and as per the table in section 7 of IS
456-2000.
Notwithstanding anything mentioned above, the slump to be obtained for work in progress shall
have the approval of the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative.

Page 220
5. Durability
A durable concrete is one that perform satisfactorily in the working environment during its exposure.
Therefore the durability of concrete, depending on the exposure condition, is to be taken into
account while designing the mix. For given aggregates, the cement content should be sufficient to
make sufficiently low water cement ratio. The provision made in IS: 456-2000 shall be taken as
guideline for durability considerations.

6. Trial Mixes
After approval of the Mix Design by the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative, the Contractor shall
make in the presence of Engineer / Engineer’s Representative the Trial Mixes for each grade of
concrete as well as for required workability.
Each trial mix shall be handled and compacted by the method which the Contractor proposes to use
for that mix in the works and the mixes shall not show tendency of inadequate compaction by the
method proposed. Similarly the trial mix shall be prepared using same type of plant & equipment
including admixtures (if any proposed) as will be used for the works.
The slump of each trial mix shall be determined immediately after mixing and the values shall not
exceed the maximum value obtained in the mix design.
Nine numbers of 150-mm test cubes shall be made from each trial mix, three for seven-day test and
six for 28th day test. These shall be cured and tested by the contractor in a nominated laboratory or
fieldThe trial mix shall also be cast in mould similar to the one proposed for use in the work and
compacted. After 24 hrs, the sides of the mould shall be struck and the surface examined in order to
determine whether or not in the opinion of the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative an acceptable
surface can be obtained using the mix.When all tests, mentioned for strength, consistency & surface
finish are satisfactory, the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative will approve the mix. Once a design
mix is approved no variation shall be made in the mix proportion or in type, grading & source of any
material without the consent of the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative.
Before commencement of the concreting works of particular grade of concrete, the Contractor must
complete the work of trial mixes and subsequent testing of the test cubes obtained there from the
design of the Approved Mix for that particular grade of concrete.
The entire cost of all the trial mixes including all the preparatory works for trial mixes, preparation of
test cubes and their testing shall be borne by the Contractor.

7. Batching of Concrete
a) Cement
Cement shall always be batched by weight. Where the weight of cement is determined by accepting
the weight per bag, number of bags shall be weighed separately to determine the average net weight
of cement per bag and the same shall be checked regularly.
b) Aggregates
For Design Mix concrete, the aggregates (coarse and fine) shall be batched by weight. Suitable
adjustments shall be made for the variation in the weight of aggregates due to variation in their
moisture contents.
c) Water

well-calibrated conical shaped jar or vessel or from a calibrated tank fitted to the mixer.

Page 221
d) Adjustment of water due to moisture contents in aggregates
For the correct determination of amount of water to be added in the concrete mix, to maintain the
water cement ratio constant, the amount of moisture content in both coarse and fine aggregates
shall be taken into consideration, as frequently as possible, the frequency for a given job being
determined by the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative according to weather conditions.
e) Determination of moisture content in the aggregates
Determination of moisture content in the aggregates shall be according to IS: 2386 (Part-Ill) - 1963.
Where tests are not conducted, the amount of surface water may be estimated from the following
table:
Surface water carried by Aggregates

Aggregates % by weight Lit/m3

Very wet sand 7.5 120

Moderately wet sand 5.0 80

Moist sand 2.5 40

Moist gravel & stone chips 0.25 – 2.5 20-40

Coarser the aggregate, lesser the water it will carry.

f) Admixtures
No admixtures shall be used without written approval of the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative. If
permitted on works, admixture for concrete shall conform to the requirements of BS 5075 or
relevant BIS. Any solid admixture, to be added, shall be measured by weight, but liquid or semi-
liquid admixture may be measured by weight or volume as approved.

g) Accuracy of batching
The accuracy of batching shall be within the following tolerance:
Cement within plus or minus 2% by weight.
Aggregate within plus or minus 2% by weight.
Water within plus or minus 0.5% by weight.

8. Mixing & Transportation of concrete

works according to the drawings and specifications well in advance before placement of concrete
at least 36 hours for all major/ important/ complicated works and 24 hours for all
minor/ordinary/simple works. The checks are purely in the interest of the work and to draw the
contractor's attention to his contractual obligations to execute the works according to the
drawings/specification and do not relieve the contractor from his responsibility in getting the end
results for the quality & strength of concrete and for maintaining the shape, level & dimensions
of the finished concrete, as well as the inserts, openings, other features within the tolerance
limits.
e) Preparatory Works/Surface Preparation
For Concrete Directly on Earth Foundation
Earth foundation on which direct placement of concrete is specified, shall be rammed and
consolidated as directed by the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative such that it does not

Page 223
crumble and get mixed with concrete during or after placement. If the foundation is quite wet,
the same shall be kept dry and then sufficiently consolidated, if necessary, a thin top layer of the
wet soil shall be removed and replaced by sand or other suitable materials as directed by the
Engineer / Engineer’s Representative without any extra cost to the Engineer. Care shall also be
taken that earth from the sides also does not get mixed with the concrete, during or after
placement, before it has sufficiently set and hardened.
The earth foundation, over which concrete is to be placed direct, shall not be kept abandoned at
the specified level and concrete shall be placed immediately following the final preparation of
the formation otherwise suitable measures shall be taken, as directed by the Engineer /
Engineer’s Representative without any extra cost to the Engineer.

9. Concreting in Inclement Weather


In the event of rainstorm or any other severe conditions arising, concreting shall be stopped and
appropriate temporary stop ends, vee grooves, etc. placed as may be necessary. During wet weather,
the concrete shall be adequately protected as soon as put into position.
The Contractor shall always have in readiness approved framed sheeting, tarpaulin, etc. for the
protection of newly placed concrete during inclement weather. Should any concrete be damaged due
to rainstorms or other weather conditions, the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative may order the
cutting out and replacement of the damaged concrete, all at the expense of the Contractor.

10. Concreting Under Water


Where concrete is to be deposited underwater, the greatest care shall be taken to prevent the
cement being washed out. The concrete shall be placed through a tremie pipe with suitable hopper
and plunger arrangements. Great care shall be taken to ensure that no segregation of concrete takes
place and the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative shall approve the method of placing.
The discharge end of the tremie tube shall be plugged at the start of the work so as to minimise the
entry of water in to the tube and it shall be entirely sealed at all times and kept full of concrete up to
the bottom of the hopper. Concreting operations once commenced are to be completed in full
without break; otherwise the structure shall be considered as rejected.

11. Construction joints


All such joints shall have continuous square bond grooves to produce a substantial and watertight
key. Where the placement of concrete has to be resumed on a surface, which has hardened,
removal of laitance and roughening shall be accomplished by cleaning by wire brushing, and washing
by compressed air, water jet etc., and thoroughly wetted. For vertical construction joints neat
cement slurry shall be applied on the surface immediately before the placement of concrete. For
horizontal joints the surface shall be covered with a layer of freshly mixed mortar about 10 to 15 mm
thick composed of cement and sand in the same proportion as the cement and sand in the concrete
mix and applied immediately before placing of the concrete. On this surface (i.e. on the surface of
joints) a layer of concrete not exceeding 150-mm in thickness shall first be placed and shall be well
rammed against old work, particular attention being paid to corners and close spots. To ensure
water tightness, care shall be taken to pour concrete properly against the old surface.

12. Inside the formwork (cleaning, surface preparation etc,)


The interior of the formworks, where the concrete is to be placed, shall be thoroughly washed by
high-pressure water jet or air jet to completely clean the entire volume from all sort of dirt,
grease/oil, foreign and deleterious materials etc. The reinforcement shall be completely clean and

Page 224
free from all sorts of dirt, grease/oil, rust, foreign/deleterious materials etc. Before placement of
concrete, the form works coming in contact with concrete, shall be coated with form oil or raw
linseed oil material or provided with any approved material to prevent adhesion of concrete to the
form work, but utmost care shall be taken so that such oily material do not come in contact with the
reinforcement.

13. Continuous concreting


Continuous concreting shall be done in a single operation as per the requirements of IS:456 and
IS:2974. It shall be ensured that clause 2.14 of these specifications is not violated in case of
continuous concreting. The concrete shall be placed in a manner that will prevent segregation and
accumulation of hardened concrete on the formwork or reinforcement above the level of the placed
concrete.

14. Placing and Compaction of Concrete


The concrete shall be placed and compacted before setting commences and should not be
subsequently disturbed. No water shall be mixed with the concrete after it has left the mixer.
Method of placing should be such as to preclude segregation. Approved mechanical vibrators of
adequate power and having a frequency of not less than 6000 impulses per minute shall be used for
compacting concrete. The vibrator shall be allowed to sink freely of its own weight until it enters the
previous lift. Concrete shall not be over vibrated or under vibrated. No concrete shall be placed until
the place of deposit has been thoroughly inspected and approved by the Engineer / Engineer’s
Representative. The contractor shall ensure that the concrete is thoroughly worked around the
reinforcements and against external shutters so that all entrained air is expelled and the concrete
surface when exposed is found good and free from the air pockets, honeycombing or other defects.
All inserts and embedment properly secured in position and checked and forms properly oiled. No
concrete shall be placed in the absence of the Engineer or his representative.
Concrete shall be placed on clean bed having the designed level. The bed shall be cleaned of all
debris and other objectionable materials. Seepage water, if any, shall be controlled or diverted.
Concreting shall not be carried on during rains unless the Contractor has taken all precautions and
the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative has given necessary permission. Suitable measures shall be
taken to control the temperature of concrete.
Concrete shall not be dropped from a height of more than 1.5 m except through a chute, placed at
not more than 45 degrees from the ground. The design and type of which shall be subject to approval
of the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative.
The concrete shall be placed, spread and compacted by approved mechanical vibrator. All vibrators
shall confirm to IS 2505. Vibrators shall not be used for pushing concrete to adjoining areas.
Utmost care shall be taken to avoid the displacement of reinforcements/ embedded parts or
movement of formwork or damage to faces of the formwork or transmission of any harmful
vibration/shocks to the concrete, which has not yet hardened sufficiently.
All members shall be concreted at such a rate that no cold joint is formed and fresh concrete is
placed always against green concrete, which is still plastic and workable.
Should any unforeseen occurrence results in a stoppage of concreting for one hour or such other
time as might allow the concrete, already placed, to begin to set before the next batches can be
placed, the Contractor shall make at his own cost, suitable tongue, and groove construction joint, as
approved by the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative. The Contractor at his own cost shall also
provide any additional reinforcement required as directed by the Engineer / Engineer’s

Page 225
Representative. Before placement of new batches of concrete over that construction joint, the
surface preparation according to this specification stipulated earlier, shall be done by the Contractor
at his own cost.
The concrete shall be worked well up against whatever surface it adjoins and compacted to such a
degree that it reaches its maximum density as a homogeneous mass, free from air and water holes
and penetrates to all corners of moulds and shuttering and completely surrounds the reinforcement.
All measures shall be taken to make the shape, size, and location of the finished concrete including
its embedment, holes, openings etc., well within the accepted tolerance limit.

15. Construction Joint and Cold Joint


Construction joints shall be kept to the minimum, and provided as directed by the Engineer /
Engineer’s Representative. These shall be straight and at right angles to the direction of main
reinforcement.
In all construction joints the reinforcements shall pass through as per approved drawings and the
same shall not be disturbed in any way.
The vertical construction joints shall be provided by insertion of board keeping provision for
passage of reinforcement/fixtures/embedment. All construction joints shall be made to form a
tongue and groove joint.
 Cold joint
An advancing face of a concrete pour, which could not be covered before expiry of
initial setting time for unexpected reasons, is called a cold joint. The Contractor shall
remain always vigilant to avoid cold joints. If however, a cold joint is formed due to
unavoidable reasons, the following procedures shall be adopted for treating it:
a) If the concrete is so green that it can be removed manually and if vibrators can penetrate the
surface without much effort, fresh concrete can be placed directly over the old surface and
the fresh concrete along with the old concrete shall be vibrated systematically and
thoroughly.
b) In case the concrete has hardened a bit more than (a), but can still be easily removed by a
light hand pick, the surface shall be raked thoroughly and the loose concrete removed
completely without disturbing the rest of the concrete in depth. Then a rich mortar layer of
12 mm thickness, shall be placed on the cold joint and then the fresh concrete shall be
placed on the mortar layer and vibrated thoroughly, penetrating deep into the layer of
concrete.
c) In case the concrete at the joint has become so stiff that it cannot be remoulded and mortar
or slurry does not rise in spite of extensive vibration, a tongue and groove joint shall be made
by removing some of the older concrete and the joint shall be left to harden at least for 12-
24 hours. It will then be treated as regular construction joint and the surface preparation of
the same, before placement of concrete, shall be as described in the appropriate clauses of
these specifications.

16. Curing of Concrete


All concrete shall be protected during hardening from the harmful effects of sunshine, moisture and
drying winds. The purpose of curing is to prevent loss of moisture from the concrete itself so that the
cement inside the concrete is sufficiently hydrated which of course is slow and prolonged process.
As soon as the concrete has hardened sufficiently 8 hrs after placement of concrete / 4 hrs during hot

Page 226
weather the curing shall be started. Curing the concrete properly and sufficiently is also the sole
responsibility of the contractor.

1.1.1.1.1 Different methods of Curing


Any one of the following methods may be used for curing as approved by the Engineer / Engineer’s
Representative.
a) Curing by direct water.
b) Curing of concrete with absorbent material and kept damp.
c) Membrane curing
a) Curing by direct water
Curing shall be done by Ponding. Wherever ponding is not possible only those area shall be cured
by spraying water,
i) Ponding
Ponding shall be used for curing slab and pavements. LEAN MIX MORTAR bunds may be
formed over the slabs and water pumped or poured into them and the same is replenished
at interval to make up for the loss by evaporation.
ii) By spraying water
In this method, curing shall be done by spraying water by suitable means at approved time
intervals. While spraying, it shall be ensured that the complete area is covered. In order to
avoid cracking, cold water shall not be applied to massive members immediately after
striking the formwork, while the concrete is still warm. Alternate wetting and over drying
shall be avoided. Curing by spraying water shall be continued at least for 14 days after final
setting. This type of curing requires prior approval of the Engineer / Engineer’s
Representative.
b) Curing of concrete with absorbent material kept damp
The entire concrete surface is covered either with hessian, burlap, sawdust, sand, canvas or
similar material and kept wet continuously for at least 14 days after final setting.
c) Membrane Curing
In place where water curing is not possible membrane curing can also used in lieu of moist
curing with the permission of Engineer / Engineer’s Representative. Such curing compound
shall be applied by spraying or brushing to the required thickness as per Manufacturer's
recommendation/specifications.

17. Testing of Concrete


The Contractor shall carry out, all sampling and testing of concrete in accordance with all the relevant
I.S. Codes, with particular reference to IS 456-2000 “Plain and Reinforced Concrete. Code of
Practice.” and as supplemented herein at his cost. The Contractor shall get all the required tests
done in a Laboratory approved by the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative. The test results in
triplicate may be obtained from the laboratory and submitted to the Engineer / Engineer’s
Representative within 3 days after completion of the test.
The Contractor shall also establish a field laboratory at site for conducting routine tests such as
compressive strength, sieve analysis, etc. and any other test which could be carried out at site.

Page 227
For any particular batch of concrete, if the results do not conform to the requirements as specified,
the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative has the right to reject that batch and the Contractor shall
remove the same immediately from the site, at no cost to the Employer.

18. Strength Test of Concrete


Samples from fresh concrete shall be taken as per IS: 1199 and cubes shall be made, cured and
tested at 28 days in accordance IS: 516.
In order to get a relatively quicker idea of the quality of the concrete compressive strength tests at 7
days may be carried out in addition to 28 days compressive strength test. If six-test cube are taken, 3
shall be tested for compressive strength at 7 days after casting and the remaining 3 at 28 days after
casting with the approval of the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative. In all cases 28 day compressive
strength specified in Table-2 of IS: 456-2000 shall alone be the criterion for acceptance or rejection of
the concrete.
Random sampling procedure shall be adopted to ensure that each concrete batch shall have a
reasonable chance of being tested, that is the sampling should be spread over the entire period of
concreting and cover all mixing units. The frequency of sampling of concrete shall be either according
to clause 15.2 of IS: 456-2000 or as directed by the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative.
The Contractor shall maintain a register at site with the following details entered and signed by both,
the Contractor and the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative. That register shall be considered as the
property of the Engineer.
Reference to the specific structural member
a) Mark on cubes
b) The grade of concrete
c) The mix of concrete
d) Date and time of casting
e) Crushing strength at 7 days
f) Crushing strength at 28 days
g) Acceptability of the concrete
h) Any other information as directed by the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative.

1.1.1.1.2 Acceptance Criteria of Concrete Strength


Concrete in a section of the work shall be considered acceptable strength provided both the
following conditions are met with:
a) The average 28 days strength of test results relating to the section of the work exceeds the
specified strength of concrete class by 10% which means that if the concrete grade used is
M40, then the average 28days shall be more than 44N/mm2
b) Any of the individual 28days test results shall not be lesser than 90% of the specified strength
i.e. if the concrete grade is M40 the individual results shall not be less than36N/mm2

19. Non-destructive Tests on Hardened Concrete


If there is doubt about the strength or quality of a particular work or the test results do not comply
with the acceptance criteria as stipulated under clause 16 of IS: 456-2000 non-destructive tests on
hardened concrete (clause 17.8), core test and/or load tests or other type of non destructive tests

Page 228
like ultrasonic impulse test etc., shall be carried out, as may be directed by the Engineer / Engineer’s
Representative, by the Contractor at his own cost.
The core tests and load tests shall comply with the requirements of clause 17.4 and 17.6 of IS 456-
2000 respectively. In case of other types of special tests like ultrasonic impulse tests etc., the
stipulation of clause 17.8 of IS: 456-2000 shall be applicable.

20. Concrete below Specified Strength


Should the test cubes fail to meet the minimum specified crushing strength the Engineer / Engineer’s
Representative may take one of the following decisions:-
a) Reject the work and instruct that section of the works to which the failed cubes relate shall
be cut out and replaced at Contractor's expense and the resultant structures affected due to
such rejection shall be made good at contractor's expense.
b) Instruct the Contractor to carry out such additional tests and/or works to ensure the
soundness of the structure at Contractor's expense. This will include, but not limited to,
taking 100-mm diameter core samples for testing at locations to be decided by the Engineer
/ Engineer’s Representative from hardened concrete.
c) Modification/remedial measures if approved by the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative to
be carried out at contractor's expense.

21. Concrete Failed in Non-Destruction Tests


In case the test results of the core tests or load tests in a particular work do not comply with the
requirements of respective clause (17.4 for core test and 17.6 for load tests) of IS: 456-2000 the
whole or part of the work concerned shall be dismantled and replaced by the Contractor as may be
directed by the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative at his cost to the satisfaction of the Engineer /
Engineer’s Representative. No payment for the dismantled concrete including relevant formwork,
reinforcement, embedded fixtures etc. shall be made. In the course of dismantling if any damage
occurs to the adjacent structure or embedded item, the same shall be made good, free of charge by
the Contractor, to the satisfaction of the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative.

22. Rejection of Concrete


Concrete is liable to be rejected if it is porous or honey-combed; its placing has been interrupted
without providing a proper construction joint; the reinforcement has been displaced beyond the
tolerances specified; or construction tolerances have not been met.

23. Finishing of Concrete


On striking the form work, all surface defects such as bulges, ridges and honeycombing etc. observed
shall be brought to the notice of the Engineer. The Engineer may at his discretion allow rectification
by necessary chipping and packing or grouting with concrete or cement mortar. However, if honey-
combing or sagging are of such extent as being undesirable, the Engineer may reject the work totally
and his decision shall be binding. All burrs and uneven faces shall be rubbed smooth with the help of
carborundum stone.
The surface of non-shuttered faces shall be smoothened with a wooden float to give a finish similar
to that of the rubbed down shuttered faces. Concealed concrete faces shall be left as from the
formwork except that honey-combed surface shall be made good as specified above.

harmful matters immediately before placing the concrete. To ensure this, reinforcements with rust
coatings shall be cleaned thoroughly before bending/placement of the same.

Page 231
8. Placing in position
All reinforcements shall be accurately fixed and maintained in positions as shown on the drawings
and by adequate means like mild steel chairs and/or concrete spacer blocks as required. Bars
intended to be in contact at crossing points, shall be securely tied together at all such points by 20G
annealed soft steel wire or by tack welding in case of bars larger than 25 mm dia, as may be directed
by the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative. Binders shall tightly embrace the bars with which they
are intended to be in contact and shall be securely held. The vertical distance between successive
layers of bars shall be maintained by provision of mild steel spacer bars. They should be spaced such

securely fixed in position as shown in the drawings, before commencement of concreting. Bolts shall
be checked for accuracy in alignment on both the axes. Limits of tolerance in alignment and level
shall be as shown in the drawing or described elsewhere in these specifications.
Where bolts are housed in sleeves, special care shall be taken after concreting is over and has partly
set to ensure that the bolts move within the sleeves. The annular space of the sleeve shall be
plugged with suitable stoppers to prevent the ingress of water, grout, dust, rubbish or other foreign
material into it, both during and after concreting. Opened conduits shall be plugged similarly. Where
channels, unshapely profiles or other similar inserts are required to be placed in concrete, special
care shall be taken to keep the grooves of such profiles free from the ingress of concrete, slurry etc.,
by suitable packing material, if necessary.
All threads for bolts and inserts shall be greased at intervals and kept covered to prevent damage.
Necessary templates, jigs, fixtures, supports shall be used as may be specified or required or directed
by the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative free of cost to the Engineer.
Exposed surfaces of embedded materials shall be painted with one coat of anti corrosive paint or
bituminous paint, as desired, without any extra cost to the Engineer. If welding is to be done
subsequently on the exposed surfaces of the embedded parts, the painting for a length of 50mm
beyond each side of the weld line shall be cleaned off.

11. Substitution
When indicated diameter of reinforcement bar is not available, the Contractor shall use other
diameter of reinforcement bars on written approval of the Engineer.

xv. Shuttering
The formwork for concrete structures shall be as per IS 14687. The Contractor shall design all
shuttering, formwork, supports and staging. The Contractor shall submit drawings and calculations to
the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative for scrutiny when called upon to do so. The shuttering shall
be designed for a live load in addition to the weight of the green concrete, or such other load
considered being necessary. The Contractor shall be responsible for the correctness and strength of
the formwork including its supports.

Page 232
1. Material
The staging and supports may be made of Steel or Water-proof Plywood. These shall be securely
jointed or otherwise fastened and spaced at suitable intervals as the design may warrant and shall be
suitably braced at regular intervals horizontally and diagonally.
The formwork shall be of steel plate on steel frame, wooden boards with steel sheet lining, or
plywood or seasoned timber board.

2. Fixing
The shuttering shall conform to the shapes, lines, levels and dimensions shown in the drawing. It
shall be fixed in perfect alignment and securely braced so as to be able to withstand, without
appreciable displacement, deflection or movement of any kind, the weight of all construction,
movement of persons and plant. It shall be so constructed as to remain rigid during the placing and
compacting of concrete without shifting or yielding and shall be sufficiently water tight to prevent
loss of slurry from the concrete.
All props shall be supported on sole plates and double wedges. At the time of removing props these
wedges shall be gently eased and not knocked out. The formwork shall be so designed that the sides
are independent of the soffits and the side forms can be removed easily without any damage or
shock to the concrete.

3. Contractors Responsibility
Any damage resulting from faulty preparation, premature or careless removal of shuttering shall be
made good by the Contractor at his own expenses.

4. Irrecoverable Shuttering
In cases where the shuttering cannot be removed without damaging the structure itself or where
removal of shuttering is rendered impossible due to the nature of construction or where the
Engineer / Engineer’s Representative may so instruct, such shuttering shall be classified as
irrecoverable shuttering. However, such abandoning of shuttering will be permitted only in situations
where it will not remain exposed or otherwise cause damage of any kind. Such costs will have to be
borne by the contractor.

5. Chamfers and Fillets


All corners and angles shall be formed with 45 degree mouldings to form chamfers or fillets on the
finished concrete. The standard dimensions of chamfer and fillets, unless otherwise detailed or
specified shall be 25x25mm.For heavier work chamfers or fillets shall be 50x50mm. Care shall be
exercised to ensure accurate mouldings. The diagonal face of the moulding shall be planed or
surfaced to the same texture as the forms to which it is attached.

6. Reuse of Forms
Before reuse, all forms shall be thoroughly scrapped, cleaned, examined and when necessary,
repaired and retreated, before resetting. Formwork shall not be reused, if declared unfit or un-
serviceable by the Engineer

xvi. Grout
The scope covers the grouting under base plates, grouting between the joints of precast concrete,
grouting the pockets/holes/opening etc.

Page 233
1. Grouting under Base Plates
Grouting under base plates of equipments/structures shall be of cement mortar 1:2 for thickness up
to 25 mm. For thickness exceeding 25 mm, concrete using 10 mm down graded aggregates shall be
used. The grout shall be placed in position well rammed until the whole space is completely filled
with concrete. No vibrators shall be used. Quick setting cements shall be used in the preparation of
mortar or concrete, where so specified.
The grout shall either be "dry" concrete or mortar or "wet expanding" concrete or mortar as the
Engineer / Engineer’s Representative may direct. A dry grout shall have a slump not exceeding 6 mm.
It shall be rammed under the horizontal surface with the aid of suitable tools. A "wet expanding"
grout shall have a slump of at least 125 mm but not exceeding 225 mm. To this shall be added an
expanding admixture approved by the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative and in accordance to the
Manufacturer's instructions.

2. Grouting the Pockets/Holes in Concrete


Depending upon the size of the pockets/holes in the concrete, the mix of the grout shall be either of
concrete or of cement sand mortars. In filling the holes of foundation bolts an expanding admixture
of approved type shall be used as per manufacturer's specification.

3. Workmanship
The surface of the concrete over which grouting is to be applied shall be thoroughly prepared to
provide a clean rough surface. If necessary, chipping shall be carried out on such surface to make it
completely rough. Then the surface shall be wetted. Bolt pockets shall be cleaned immediately
before the base plate is placed in position. Before grouting the surface shall be thoroughly cleaned
with compressed air/water jet.
Before placement of grout, the surfaces (except in the case of bolt holes) shall be wetted with
cement slurry. In case of bolt holes/pockets water from such pockets shall be thoroughly removed by
some suitable means and no cement slurry shall be applied.
Hand mixing is not permitted and the grout shall always be machine mixed. If however in some

of construction.

5. Boring
Boring shall generally be carried out by recommended procedure as set out in IS: 2911 by rotary or
percussion equipment, grabing equipment or by reverse or direct mud circulation method.
Boring of any pile shall not be carried out if any of the adjacent pile within a clear distance of 5m, had
been freshly concreted within past 24 hours
If soil is found to be unstable it shall be stabilised by using casing / liners of suitable thickness with a
stiffener at the bottom depending upon the diameter of the piles and soil conditions. Casing or liner
plates shall be provided from cut-off level up to 5m below the Existing Bed Level (or) 1m below Final
Dredge Level whichever is maximum. The method of boring & providing casing shall be such that the
finished cross section of concrete pile shaft at any location shall be not less than that shown in the
drawing. The Contractor shall submit with the tender his method of boring & providing liner plates or
casing where required.
Bentonite if used shall be of the best quality. Bentonite shall be mixed thoroughly with clean fresh
water to make a suspension, which will maintain of the pile excavation for the period, necessary to
place concrete and complete construction. It should form a suspension, which remains stable for the
construction of marine piles. Necessary tests shall be conducted periodically as directed by the
Engineer / Engineer’s Representative.
During the course of boring if hard layers are encountered, chisel or a chopper may be used. The
piles shall be installed with due consideration for safety of adjacent structures by a method, which
leaves their strength unimpaired, and which develops and retains the required bearing resistance.

6. Termination Criteria of Piles:


It shall be ensured that the pile is founded in suitable strata. Before founding the pile SPT shall be
conducted at the proposed founding level. Founding level of each pile will be individually approved
by the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative satisfying himself from observations and all data
including SPT tests at his disposal, of the soundness of the end-bearing stratum. In case of rocky
strata the pile shall be socketed a minimum of one diameter of the pile or as directed by the Engineer
/ Engineer’s Representative. In other soils the penetration shall be as per designs, with the approval
of the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative.

Page 239
7. Reinforcement
Reinforcement as required shall be made into stiff cages sufficiently welded to withstand handling
without any damage or distortion. The bars shall be placed as not to impede the placing of the
concrete. Reinforcement shall be placed immediately after cleaning and inspection of the bottom of
bore holes. The reinforcement should be supported away from the sides of the shaft by means of
suitable spacer blocks (75mm) to ensure concentric alignment in the shaft. Steps shall be taken to
ensure correct positioning of reinforcement in the piles without any distortion during concreting.

8. Formation of Pile
Immediately before placing of reinforcement and concreting, the bored hole shall be cleaned of all
the loose material, debris and all the water shall be removed.
Then the bored hole shall be cleaned with Air Flushing before flushing the bore with fresh Bentonite
slurry (if used) to completely replace the old Bentonite slurry used during the previous operations.
This shall be carried out for about 45 minutes.
Upon completion of cleaning of the pile shaft, a sample of Bentonite suspension shall be taken from
the base of the pile shaft using an approved sampling device. If the specific gravity of the Bentonite
suspension exceeds 1.10 or its sand content exceeds 2%, the placing of concrete shall not proceed. In
this event, the contractor shall modify or replace the Bentonite or continue cleaning the bottom of
the shaft as directed by the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative.
Contractor has to ensure the maintenance of bored depth both at pre & post flushing stage.
Immediately after cleaning concrete shall be so placed as to fill the entire volume of the tube or bore
without the formation of voids caused by the faulty consolidation or entrapped air. Proper care shall
be taken to ensure that the fluid alluvial soil does not penetrate between batches of the concrete.
In case of boreholes stabilised by Bentonite slurry or under water, concrete shall be placed by means
of tremie pipe. The tremie pipe must extend up to the bottom of the borehole at the start and may
be withdrawn in sections as the level of concrete rises in the borehole, but its discharge end shall at
all times be embedded in the concrete to a minimum depth of 2 m to avoid mixing of fresh concrete
with Bentonite slurry. Placing of concrete should be continuous and the pile holes will be maintained
full with the Bentonite slurry where used throughout the concreting operation. Used Bentonite,
containing muck, debris arising from boring of pile shall be collected, transported and disposed off at
a place to be identified by the Engineer / Engineer’s Representative. Rate for boring quoted by the
Contractor shall include the expenses incurred of such disposal.
Temporary stoppage of work may be permitted only during boring stage. Thereafter right from
boring or chiselling of final portion of pile length through subsequent activities of flushing, lowering
of reinforcement cage, lowering of tremie, pre-concrete flushing & up to concreting of full pile
length, no halt whatsoever in the execution of work shall be permitted. During execution continuous
delivery of concrete shall be guaranteed in-order to minimise the re-handling of the concrete.
Concreting of pile shall continue until the pile is fully formed up to a level not less than 600mm above
the cut off level of piles and the top of the piles shall be brought up above the cut off level / finished
level to permit all laitance and weak concrete to be removed and to ensure that it can be properly
keyed into the cap. Any defective concrete in the head of the completed pile shall be cut away and
made good with new concrete and bonded into the old. Trimming of pile top shall not be permitted
before 7 days of concreting in case of mechanical chipping and 3 days in case of manual chipping.

Page 240
9. Standard of Acceptance

this specification, IS Codes, and the Standards stated below, and any instructions given by
Engineer / Engineer’s Representative at site from time to time:
a) The total volume of concrete shall not be less than 95%and not more than 120% of the actual
shaft volume. The calculated volume for this purpose shall be the cross sectional area inside
the bore multiplied by the length of the shaft (i.e. from cut off level to founding level). If
actual quantity is found to be considerably less than 95% special investigation shall be
conducted and appropriate measures taken.
b) The concrete shall be of the design strength (as per acceptance criteria) by the cube test
results.
c) The toe of pile shall be at approved bearing level in each case
d) The pile shall not be out of plumb by more than 2%
