PROCEDURE FOR ESTIMATION OF RATE FOR ITEM NO 1001

Estimation of rate for this item has to be done as per the following procedure;

1) Based upon geotechnical investigations, ascertain type of soil (A/B1/B2/C) available locally along the alignment in different stretches
of earthwork in filling (not longer than a block section).
2) Decide upon the type of soil to be used in earth fill and prepared subgrade for each stretch.
3) Workout leads for soil to be used in earth fill and prepared subgrade for each stretch separately.
4) Workout quantity of earthwork required in earth fill and in prepared subgrade for each stretch separately.
5) Workout weighted average lead for soil to be used in earth fill and in prepared subgrade for entire package separately.
6) Use this average lead and cost of soil to work out the rate as per standard rate analysis for item no. 1001 separately for earth fill and
prepared subgrade.
7) Workout weighted average per cum rate of earthwork for item no. 1001 based on total quantities of earthwork in earth fill and prepared
subgrade and respective rates.
8) Required quantities of blanketing material (under BOQ item no. 1005) may also be worked out from blanket thickness required for
each stretch depending upon the type of soil used in fill and prepared subgrade.Example-1 may be followed for such cases.
9) In cases where only ‘C’ group soil is locally available and lead/cost of soils required in prepared subgrade is high then estimation of
rates may be done as per Example-2.
10) For better appreciation, two typical examples are given below;
