8. 2Tank foundations
Proposed phosphoric acid tank foundation shall be RCC pile group with a system of grillage and
drain above the pilecap ( below the tank base plate), designed for the worst case ofloads and
their combinations. The clear Spacing between each grillage beam running below tank plate shall
be kept to a max of 300mm, so that the thickness required for bending action of base plate is
optmised.
Piles of sufficient depth and number shall be accommodated to resist base shear from seismic
action or wind, whichever is critical.
Portions of pile cap exposed to yard area, or area where chances of acid leak or spill is there,
shall be protected with acid proof lining, wherever possible.

8. 5 Drain & pit
The proper surface drainage of rain water from all parts of the scope area shall be envisaged.
All drain work shall be in RCC. The drainage system shall be bygravity.
Rain water falling on such portion of paved areas of layout where it is not likely to get
contaminated in regular usage other than a tank burst, shall be collected in open rectangular
RCC drains provided in floor paving. These drains shall be covered by FRP gratings and shall be
generally connected to peripheral storm water drains as per the scheme indicated in the layout
drawing No 3264403OP00001.
Proposed Project mainly include following different types of drain system:
Drain below tank surface towards cleanouts (Coating as indicated in tender drawing)
Drain around Tank for accommodating acid leaks, if any (Acid proof lined)
Drain from tank to Reclamation pit / Drain pit (Acid proof lined)
Drain inside dyke for routing for storm water
Grillage beams shall be provided with a minimum height of 900mm and with maximum clear
spacing of 300mm below tank base plate for facilitating leakages from the tank bottom, if any.

Cleanouts to be kept diametrically opposite corners at minimum 2 locations or as per the
Mechanical requirement for the tank cleaning..
These cleanout drainshall be connected to circular drains provided around tank (above pile cap).
Spills/ Leaks in thesedrains shall be further routed towards the drain pit.

8. 8Soil Investigation Report
The recommendations from the investigation conducted in the nearby area is summarised as
follows:
The land is previously dredged fill area near the Product Handling Berth(Q10) in Cochin Port
area at Willington Island. The soil profile for a considerable depth is marine clay with shallow
pockets of decayed wood at random depths. Hence it is advised to found heavy loaded
structures at denser strata available at deeper depth. Water table was met at 0.50m to 1.0 m
depth below ground level in the bore holes at the time of investigation during April 2014.
For heavily loaded structures pile foundation of sufficient depth and number shall be
accommodated to resist vertical and uplift load including base shear from seismic / wind,
whichever is critical.
Piles shall be bored cast in situ DMC type with depth ranging from 60 to 65m resting the pile
in the very dense silty sand layer with minimum 2 times the diameter penetration in the layer.
Safe load carrying capacity of bored cast in situ piles of depth 65m below cut off level, arrived
from the soil investigation conducted nearby area for design are as follows:

SCOPE
This document together with “VENDOR DATA REQUIREMENTS (VDR)” defines FEDO’s requirements for
vendor drawing and data for any enquiry, work order or purchase order.
Bidders unable to comply with these requirements must detail all exceptions in their proposal. The timely
delivery of quality drawings and data is as crucial as delivery of the equipment itself and hence the same shall
be strictly adhered to after commitment.
Failure to provide adequate preliminary data / drawing may render a proposal non-responsive and hence may
be rejected. After commitment failure to provide documents as per purchase order may delay progressive
payments and adversely affect future invitation to bids.
FEDO will provide a partially completed VDR form along with each enquiry. This form explains group code of
the document, quantity of each document required and lead time for submission. Columns are available for the
vendor to fill in his deviations, if any, from FEDO’s requirements.
The vendor shall forward a filled-in VDR form along with his offer, if he has got any deviation from FEDO’s
requirements. In the absence of a filled-in VDR form along with the offer, it will be presumed that the vendor is
accepting FEDO’s requirements specified in the VDR.
CLASSIFICATION OF DOUCMENTS

clearly demarcated by clouding. Any revisions made on other parts of the documenting will not be reviewed by
FEDO.
When drawings are received back from FEDO with comments, vendor shall incorporate all the comments and
resubmit the same. If the vendor is not in a position to incorporate certain comment made by FEDO, then the
reason for such deviation shall be highlighted in the forwarding letter to FEDO.
The respective engineering specification and other purchase order spec. will explain
the minimum data / details required in various drawings. In the absence of any such information
in the purchase order documents, vendor shall follow the standard good engineering practices
in detailing the drawing.
FEDO and / or its client reserve the right to review the vendor documents. FEDO’s REVIEW WITH OR
WITHOUT COMMENTS OF THE VENDOR DOCUMENTS SHALL NOT RELIEVE THE VENDOR OF
RESPONSIBILITY TO COMPLY WITH ALL PURCHASE ORDER TERMS AND CONDITIONS, including
all implied requirements relating to fitness for service and good engineering practices. Approval or
acceptance does not imply or infer any determination relating to compliance by the vendor with its full
responsibilities under the purchase order.
FEDO’s comments are limited to identifying requirements within the scope of the purchase order or
failure by the vendor to comply with the requirements of purchase order, as revealed by the limited
review. Oversights in the above limited review cannot be taken as approval for the vendor to deviate
from the purchase order conditions. FEDO reserve the right to point out any such deviations at any
stage of the order execution. The vendor shall comply with all such requirements without any price /
delivery implications.
FEDO review will be authorized by an official stamp as given below, properly filled and signed by the

All documents received in FEDO shall be dispatched after review within 15 days from the date of receipt.
Vendor shall notify FEDO of non receipt of reviewed documents in time immediately, to take corrective
actions.
The delivery of the equipment shall in no case be linked with the review of the vendor drawings and data
by FEDO. It is the sole responsibility of the vendor to execute the job as per the purchase order
conditions. If required the vendor shall depute his technical personnel to FEDO after submission of
documents for timely finalisation of documents.
