freely through a height greater than 1.00m. All concrete will be
placed using concrete pumps
All concrete, other than blinding concrete, will be compacted
with power driven, immersion type vibrators supplemented by
hand spading and tamping. The vibrators shall be inserted into
the un-compacted concrete vertically and at regular intervals
such that the radius of action overlaps that of the previously
vibrated concrete. A layer shall not be covered with a
succeeding layer until it has been thoroughly vibrated as
specified. Where the un-compacted concrete is in a layer above
freshly compacted concrete, the vibrator should penetrate
vertically for about 100 mm into the previous layer. The
vibrators cannot be allowed to come into contact with the
formwork or embedded parts, nor shall they be withdrawn
quickly from the mass of concrete, but shall be drawn back
slowly so as to leave no voids. Care shall be taken properly to
vibrate concrete placed in contact with previously placed
concrete or embedded parts. The duration of vibration shall be
limited to that required to produce satisfactory compaction
without causing segregation. Compaction of the concrete by
40@%Redco International DAEWOOE&C
vibration shall be such as to produce a concrete that has the
maximum practicable density, is free from pockets of coarse
aggregate and entrapped air and makes complete contact with
the foundation, previously placed hardened concrete,
embedded items and the formwork.
Blinding concrete will be compacted by hand spading and
tamping
g. Curing of Concrete
Concrete shall be cured by approved methods for a continuous
period as specified in the Specifications or until covered by the
next lift or as otherwise approved by the engineer. The curing
methods are the following but not limiting the following.
- water sprays in continuous operation;
- covering with Hessian cloth or similar absorbent material, or
sand, kept constantly wet;
- after thorough wetting, covering with a layer of waterproof
fabric kept in contact with the concrete surface;
- applying an approved non-staining liquid curing membrane or
curing compound.
h. Temperature Control of Concrete
The maximum temperature of concrete at placement should be
controlled within the limits. The core temperature should be
within the desired range and be monitored accordingly.
When the temperature of fresh design mix concrete exceeds
specification with the consequence that workability is adversely
affected, mixing and placing of the concrete in question shall be
terminated. Special precautions shall be taken to ensure the
concrete temperature at placing is maintained. These
precautions may include
- Protecting all aggregate stockpiles, water lires and tanks as
well as the mixer from the direct rays of the sun.
- Mixing water cooled by the addition of ice to the storage
tanks.
~ Conereting carried out during the cooler parts of the day or
during the night.
~ Cooling all chutes, formwork and reinforcement by watering
when possible, or otherwise protecting the site of placing
from the direct rays of the sun. Any water so used shall be

Dewatering of Piling Site
The Contractor may engage the services of a specialist agency for
dewatering works, if required, and the prequalificaton documents of
the agency will be transmitted formally to the Clint/Engineers.
- The Contractor where possible, switch off the pump before it
begins to suck up the last drops of water as these are likely to
contain high levels of silt.
- The base of the excavation needs to be free of sea water. The
contractor shall dig a small sump, put a perforated pipe into it
and surround the outside of the pipe with a suitable grade of
clean stone. The Contractor shall put the sump pump inside the
perforated pipe. This will help stop the sides of the sump falling
in and blocking the pump inlet. Although it will keep the base of
the excavation free from water, any water produced may still be
silty.

Key point of Proposed Construction Sequence
The proposed construction sequence is for the Signature Marine
Bridges 8 & 9 which inter-connect Qetaifan Islands to the mainland
at the South 3 and at the North of the Qetaifan Islands respectively.
The bridges carry both road traffic and services. The construction is
estimated to take approximately 23.5 months. This is the current
best estimate of the likely construction events at each stage. The
duration of each activity is difficult to forecast as it depends on the
detail of how REDCO - DAEWOO JV chooses to schedule of works
and operate the works. It is recognized that contractors tendering
for the works might have their own ideas and methods of working
which could differ from that anticipated.
The timings will be subject to the outcome and timescale of the
statutory process and the time taken to obtain the correct licenses
and permissions prior to construction beginning. It is noted that
there is an overlap between some of the activities as they will take
place in parallel.
Site Development Plan
Below is the overall development plan of the Package 3A of which
st@%Redco International DAEWOO E&C
Marine Signature Bridges 8 & 9 are inclusive in the project.%Redco International DAEWOO E&C
Site Set-up and Moorings
The first phase of the work will be to set up the site and undertake
relocation of moorings. The land and marine areas of the site will be
prepared for the commencement of the bridge construction activities.
Expected tasks will include establishing site compounds and
facilities, and site clearance. Site clearance will be needed to create
road access, site parking, storage and working areas. The
temporary site offices with associated facilities will be located in the
construction compound.
Site traffic management procedures will be required. In addition to
overall traffic management and control, the travel plan will need to
include identification of parking facilities for construction workers
and proposals to encourage car sharing and use of public transport.
If any excavation or work in trenches is needed on and at any stage
throughout the construction process, a risk assessment should be
undertaken in relation to the health and safety for construction
workers.
Diversion of the Traffic and Widening of Earth Bridges
Prior to construction works of marine bridges 8 & 9, the earth
bridges shall be widen in accordance to what is required in the ITB
and specifications. The widening will be such thet the traffic flow
caused by the Client/Engineer personnel and other contractors
working in the project will not be disrupted during the course of the
construction of the signature bridges 8 & 9 structures along the
earth bridges.
Ample road barriers, signages and other warning devices for
diverting the traffic on the earth bridges during road diversion shall
be instituted and maintained. The traffic diversion and contro! shall
be manned by qualified personnel of the Contractor to avert
untoward incidences in the project site
Earth bridges will be kept maintained by the Contractor throughout
the bridge work until such that it is not needed anymore and then
shall be demolished.
Marine Concrete Bored Piling Works
The REDCO - DAEWOO JV proposes start piling works from Pylon
3@%Redco International DAEWOO E&C
as this is the main structure of the bridge. The piling works will then
be radiating to Anchor Block to Abutment and Auxiliary Support. It is
proposed that bored piles will be constructed at pylon, anchor block
and abutment location to support the bridge substructures. This will
require construction vessels to work in various locations. If required,
temporary steel sheet pile cofferdams will be constructed around the
piles to allow the pylon, anchor block and abutment to be
constructed in dry conditions. Once reinforced concrete works for
pylon, anchor block, abutment and auxiliary support are completed
the cofferdams will be removed from around these structures.
Bored piles will be poured into the permanent metal pile casings
grade $275J2 protruding 50mm into the pile caps. It is anticipated
that disturbance from driving the metal pile casings into the sea bed
will first be extremely limited and protection measures will not be
required. The concrete mix designed for cast-in-place piles shall be
grade 40 under water concrete in accordance with BS EN 206-1
Working Procedures for the Construction of Bored Piles:
* Install safety barricades and divert the traffic flow away from the
work areas
* If required and when the water table level is high, construct the
cofferdam by driving the steel sheet piles
* Excavate the location of pile caps until desired level
* If required, dewatering will be done on the trench of pile caps to
make the work area clear from water
* Lay the C30 blinding concrete on the location as per the
requirement in the drawings and technical specification.
* Set out the exact location of each pile and confirm with the
Engineer on-site
+ Lower the permanent circular stee! casing into the set out location
on the ground and drive into the required depth using
hydrauliclvibro hammer mounted on a crawler crane. The
hydraulicivibro hammer may need 3 air compressor units for full
operation:
* Check the verticality of casing by observing the angle between the
casing and a suspended plumb line.
* When the steel casing reaches rock head level, socket will be
formed by drilling with hydraulic down-the-hole hammer mounted
on a drilling rig.
s@%Redco International DAEWOOE&C
* After completing the drilling to the specified founding level, the
drilled hole will be cleaned by flushing with water and compressed
air
« Install the prefabricated reinforcement cage into the drilled hole to
full length of the pile.
* Cleaning using waterlair jet of soil and refuses inside the bored
holes
* Inspection and approval of Engineer
* Pour C40 underwater concrete using tremi pipes for the pile by the
static concrete pump.
* Piles will be constructed 500mm longer and the top 500mm will be
chipped off to remove the poor quality concrete and the
reinforcement will be embedded into the pile caps during the
construction of pile caps
After completions of pile works, REDCO - DAEWOO JV will perform
the permeability and static load test on the bored piles as per
specification

General
Environment problem is recognized internationally as one of the
three critical issues for the sustainable development of the world in
the 21° century. However, environment around construction area
will be certainly affected during construction period. The main
sources of unfavorable effect and pollution to surrounding
environment during the construction period will include dust, noise
and exhaust gas, waste water, solid waste, slope and soil erosion,
etc. Aiming at above-mentioned unfavorable sources we will take
relevant stops at the utmost to decrease adverse effects and
pollution to surrounding environment during the construction period,
80 as to satisfy international and domestic relevant regulations as
well as requirements specified in the tender documents.
Environmental Protection Objective
The objective of such Environment Protection Plan is to cause
minimum temporary and permanent disfigurement to the. existing
natural beauty and amenities of the area, and especially to prevent
discomfort of neighboring and to cause minimum disturbance or
damage to forested area, river and sea during construction. It is
imperative for us to educate all members of our work force to
comply with the country's national and local pertinent laws, by-laws
and stipulations on environmental protection, and we shall adopt all
necessary control procedures in each area before work is allowed to
proceed
Environment protection plan will include:
- Dust control
- Noise control
- Water pollution control
- Exhaust gas and odor pollution control
- Solid refuse pollution control
- Vegetation and animal protection
- Public facility and service protection
= Treasure trove protection
- Shifting of trees
- _ Reinstatement of affected areas@Redco International DAEWOO E&.C
9.2 Environmental pollution control measures
9.2.1 Dust control
The generation of dust as a result of construction activities will be
controlled with appropriate procedures. Such procedures will
include regular watering of gravel access roads and working areas,
and improving construction method to reduce dust, for example, wet
drilling method, wet process producing aggregate, wet shotcrete
and ventilation pipe ete.

our vehicles for the construction of the Works shall be kept clean
and free of dirt and mud arising from the Works.
To reduce dust on access roads at site caused by our vehicles,
proper measures shall be taken, including reinforcing road
management and maintenance, equipping sufficient water tanks to
spray the road surface and construction areas with water regularly,
and cleaning vehicles frequently.
9.2.2 Noise control
The main sources of construction noise are steady, continuous
noise from construction equipment and intermittent & moving traffic
noise. To prevent noise and annoyance to the inhabitants of the
area in which the Works is situated, proper measures shall be taken,
including selecting and utilizing low noise generating construction
methods and plants to minimize noise and vibration levels,
strengthening equipment maintenance and management, equipping
the work force with labor protection devices and ensure the
occupational noise and vibration exposure of the work force to
comply with the regulations etc.
9.2.3 Water pollution control
No contamination shall be made to the sea water during the
construction. Appropriate procedures will be adopted to prevent
entrance of solid matter, contaminants, debris and other
objectionable pollutants and wastes into the sea water. Necessary
collection facilities such as spoil tips, diversion mounds, ditches,
drains, oil separation sumps, sedimentation ponds and the like will
be constructed and operated to prevent such contamination.
