Excavation work is classified as earth excavation work and rock excavation work as
follows:
(1) Soil excavation
Soil excavation work in question is excavation of soil, sediment/sediment, sand,
gravel, cobbles, or rock which can be excavated easily without the use of special
tools (rippers) or blasting including efforts to handle them, forming/filling
excavation holes to suit the location, route , elevation, slope and dimensions as
specified in the drawings or PPK instructions/orders, as well as transporting the
excavated material to the final disposal site or temporary storage location before
being used as soil stockpiling material.

approval and after the work of slashing and clearing the undergrowth in Article B-1,
and the work of stripping the topsoil in Article B-2, has been completed so that it is
guaranteed that the landfill material is really completely clean and free of organic
matter.
The provider must pay attention to and maintain the moisture content of the soil for
the stockpiling material so that it meets the requirements and does not exceed the
values identified in laboratory tests. The provider should make this effort at the
borrow-pit location by structure a drainage system and making a certain slope on
the surface of the excavation to keep it dry.

B-7 Grass Frenzy

There are two types of grass clumps, called Type-1 and Type-2. Selection of the type of
grass cover is determined by the PPK or shown in the picture.
Grass Thickness Type-1
The provider is obliged to provide Type-1 grass thickets on long slopes, with steep slopes
and easily eroded from embankments, flood embankments, cross drainage and
embankments in concrete gutters or excavations as shown in the drawings or determined
by PPK.
Providers are required to select coverage leguminous plant varieties, for example coverage
legume varieties, Mucuma Bracteata or similar legumes, namely coverage legumes that
based on experience have been successful in protecting soil erosion in the same or similar
projects, such as water catchment area management, soil conservation and/or projects. or
soil erosion prevention projects and plantation projects located in the same province
and/or area or adjacent to the project location. The provider is also required to submit to
the PPK a plan for grass cover work which consists of a comparison of several
leguminous coverage varieties, a planting schedule, a plan for plant care methods, for
approval. Any work cannot be started before obtaining PPK approval.
Coverage leguminous plants must have advantages in planting, growing and caring for,
such as (i) fast growing by spreading and spreading to prevent the growth of weeds, (ii)
high suitability for growing to soil types, (iii) free from pests and diseases, (iv) high
effectiveness to prevent erosion, (v) not preferred by livestock and (vi) practical rearing
methods.
Providers are required to provide pots of organic seeds in the amount of 900 pots/ha and
plant coverage leguminous plants for the first 3 months in or around the Provider's office
and start grass cover work with PPK approval. Therefore, the Provider is required to
submit a work plan for overlapping grass no later than one (1) month before commencing
the overfilling work.
In the case of easily eroded soils, steep or long slopes, thick grass must be based on a geo-
grid for slope protection as specified in Article H-17.
Sealed areas should be watered immediately after spreading and at least at the end of each
working day. Watering is done at regular intervals until the grass grows.
The provider is responsible for maintaining cover legumes, especially watering and
applying phosphate fertilizers at regular intervals and replacing dead plants from the time
the land is planted up to the Certification of Work Handover.
Measurements for payment of grass cover are made in square meters (m2).
Payment for grass cover is made at the unit price per square meter of the area planted in
the List of Unit Prices and Quantity with the following schedule:
- when laying block on slope: 50%
- when submitting work or being accepted by PPK: 50%
The unit price must include the cost of labor, equipment and materials needed to complete
the work, as well as cutting, transporting, planting and maintaining the plant, as well as
other related work costs.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Sub-section B - Earthworks

Grass Thickness Type-2

The surface of the soil heap and excavation must be covered with grass in accordance
with the working drawings or PPK instructions, i.e. the grass planted comes from an
approved location, in good condition, alive, not mixed with wild plants and with a layer of
soil not less than 5 cm thick and grass should not be more than 10 cm.
The thick grass must be planted and nailed with bamboo sticks continuously on the entire
surface of the pile and excavation according to the working drawings, with an additional
width of 20 cm at the foot, berm and top of the embankment and watered immediately
after planting and thereafter regularly until the thick grass grows well. and satisfy the
PPK.
The provider is required to submit the working method of planting grass cover to the PPK
for approval prior to work and is responsible for maintaining it so that it continues to grow
and is free of weeds until the handover (Take-Over Certificate) is carried out.
Measurements for Type-2 grass filling work are carried out in units of area (m2) of
compacted soil surface.
Payment for grass fill work is carried out based on the unit price per m2 listed in the
Quantity and Price List with the payment schedule as follows:
- after planting grass cover : 50%
- after the first submission of work,
or according to PPK order : 50%
The unit price includes costs for: wages, procuring grass clippings, equipment,
transportation, maintenance and all costs required by the Provider for the smooth and easy
implementation of the work.

B-8. Transportation of landfill material and excavated waste

The Provider is required to submit the work method for transporting soil landfill material
from the borrow-pit and/or excavation location as well as disposal of the remainder of the
excavation and/or soil that does not meet the requirements as stockpiling material to the
disposal site provided by the Provider, no later than 30 (thirty) days before being
submitted to the PPK for approval.
The working method is accompanied by a map of the mechanical earth moving work plan,
equipped with paths/roads for soil transportation.
The unit price for excavation and stockpiling works listed in the Quantity and Price List
includes costs for transportation.

B-9 Earthwork Tolerances

B-10 Laboratory Tests for Materials and Finished Works

Laboratory tests for stockpiling and backfill materials before carrying out the work and
for quality control during the execution of the work must be carried out by the Provider
using his laboratory in the field or other laboratories approved by the PPK
witnessed/supervised by the PPK.
The provider is required to carry out the SPT (Standard Cone Penetration Test) test at the
bottom of the excavation to ensure the suitability of the soil as a foundation before placing
concrete.
Laboratory test results for all structure materials to be used for work must be submitted by
the Provider to PPK for review and approval.
Laboratory tests to be carried out by the Provider, the standard method for laboratory tests
to be used and the frequency of laboratory tests for structure materials during construction
