7 PROCEDURE
 It is proposed to install a single stage well point system to control the ground water
within the area of the excavation.
 An installation platform 0.50 cms above the existing ground water level will be
prepared. From this platform a well point dewatering system shall be installed around
the perimeter of the open excavation. Following the installation and operation of the
well point system the groundwater shall be lowered and maintained to an elevation at
least 300 mm below the lowest excavation level.
 Well point dewatering involves the installation of riser pipes with a filter section on the
lower 1m portion, connected into a common header pipe from which the water can be
pumped by a vacuum assisted pump to a convenient discharge point.
 UPVC Riser pipes shall be driven into the ground through the use of high pressure
water. The jetting pump is connected to a lance through which the high pressure water
is injected into the ground, forming a borehole into which the well point can be
installed. The lance is rotated to create a gap around the well point, which in turn is
filled with suitable filter material. Well points shall be installed at 1m intervals.
W ELLPOI NT INSTALLATION
Preparation Of Working Platform Level
 Initial excavation for all structures shall include an installation platform 50cm above the
existing water table.

 As a means of ensuring the integrity of the well point installation, boreholes shall be
predrilled to the required depth at 1m intervals. Pre-drilling shall be executed by use of
a self-propelled drilling rig.
Well points Installation

 Well points shall be installed into the boreholes at 1m intervals. High pressure water
shall be injected into the ground through the 7m lance; forming a borehole into which
the well point shall be inserted. Once the well point is installed the lance is held in this
position until the water being ejected out through the top of the borehole runs clean.
 The borehole and well point surrounds are backfilled with aggregate, 10 to 15cm above
the working platform. As the jetting lance is withdrawn from within the borehole, the
aggregate shall reduce to 0.0 levels by the displacement created by the removal of the
lance. This procedure is repeated upon installation of each well-point.

7 PROCEDURE
1) Operating procedure & control measures

When performing the crane operation using mobile crane, before starting the work and
for safe completion of the work, it is important to study various items regarding safety,
such as the size of work place, the surroundings, the topographical or geological
condition, and to determine the type and performance of a mobile crane according to
the mass of the loads, the operating radius, the actual lifting range, etc. and to further
study the assignment of necessary workers, technically important points and
precautions for safe operation. According to the above study and determination, the
fundamental operation procedure should be prepared and the lifting operation should
be performed under the below procedure.

i. Determination of use condition

a. Confirmation of setting place


b. Confirmation of the ground, (Check possible softness and/or weakness, buried
objects and if the operation is extreme proximity to a top of slope.)
c. Check conditions of outrigger extension(to maximum, as a rule)
d. Check operating range.(Select the optimum working direction according to the crane
model)
e. Check the mass of lifting loads
f. Check the mass of a hook block and other lifting attachment(Ascertain the gross
rated load as the total mass of a hook block suitable for the number of parts of line
and other lifting attachment)
g. Ascertain operating radius.(Compare the working radii between load-lifting and load-
lowering points and select the larger one)
h. Ascertain lifting range.(Consider the length of an over-winding preventive device
with a weight attached and the length of a sling rope. In the case lowering a load
below the setting surface of mobile crane, leave at least two dead turns on the
hoisting drum at maximum lowering.)

ii. Brief meeting prior to operation

61
Project Name : Dubai Creek Harbour Development – Dubai Creek Residences

Client Project Manager Engineer Main Contractor

TEMPORARY WORK POLICY

a. Before starting the work, the meeting among a foreman, an operator, slingers, a
signaler and others should be held regarding the work method and the work
procedure.
b. The conformation between an operator and a signaler should be made regarding
the signaling method (walkie talkie radio).

iii. Precaution taken in setting mobile crane (preparations for operation)

Set up the mobile crane horizontally on the firm and level surface. Extend right and left
outriggers uniformly to their maximum length. If the ground is soft and weak, reinforce it or
take other appropriate measures. When overhead electric power line is located nearly,
take measures to prevent electric shock, such as keep minimum recommended distance
away for electric lines etc.

a. Confirm that the ground bearing is strong enough. On the soft and weak ground,
reinforce the ground or take other appropriate action
b. Place wide and strong planks under the outriggers (to disperse a load concentrated
on the outrigger float).
c. Look at a level gage and adjust outrigger jacks to make the crane body level. Get
tires afloat above the ground.
d. Conform the outriggers extended before taking off the hook block from a clamping
ring

62
Project Name : Dubai Creek Harbour Development – Dubai Creek Residences

Client Project Manager Engineer Main Contractor

TEMPORARY WORK POLICY


e. When assembling or disassembling the jib (lattice construction), appoint a work
leader, take “keep-off measures” and carry out according to working procedure
f. Outriggers should be used basically at their maximum extension. When the right
and the left outriggers have to be extended to a different width due to unavoidable
reason, overloading may be caused in the narrow width direction as compared with
loading in the wide width direction. Recheck the state of outriggers shown on the
overload preventive device. The input data of the overload preventive device must
be carefully rechecked.
g. The area around the mobile crane to the barricaded.

iv. Precaution during crane operation

a. Do not perform rough operations that cause excessive centrifugal force or inertia
force. Don’t lower a lifted load by using the free fall method.
b. Perform at a slow slewing speed while suspending a heavy load. Rapid slewing
creates the centrifugal force that swings the load away outside the pin point, extends
the operating radius and may result in overturning of the mobile crane.

63
Project Name : Dubai Creek Harbour Development – Dubai Creek Residences

Client Project Manager Engineer Main Contractor

TEMPORARY WORK POLICY


c. In case of the box type jib, the jib telescoping motion makes a hook block lower or
raise. Therefore, telescope while carefully watching the position of a hook block.
d. During operation, the operator must follow signals sent by the signaler, and operate
while confirming the state of the load lifted and the stability of the crane and keeping
the overload preventive device or other safety devices in functioning condition. In
particular, in case of extending the jib or lowering the jib, the careful attention must
be paid for the indication or warning of the overload preventive device.
e. When lifting a load off the ground, never try the side dragging by hoisting operation
or dragging the load by luffing up or slewing. These rough operation may cause the
rope coming off from the sheave, the rope damage or the jib damage.
f. Position a hook block just above the center of the gravity of a load. Keeps the
vertical line extending through the center of the hook in line with the center of the
gravity of the load. Otherwise there is a danger of load swing when the load is lifted
off the ground.
g. Never leave a crane unattended while suspending any load or the engine is running
h. The operator / Rigger must allow no one under a lifted load
i. In order to give a warning to surrounding personnel, sound and alarm before slewing
the jib. Especially, the rear area is likely to become a blind spot. Therefore the
special attention must be paid like setting place barriers around the blind spot to
prevent personnel from entering there.
j. When lifting a load, not to hoist it at a stroke but to lift it slightly off the ground and
stop hoisting. And make sure that the sling rope is securely holding the load. Make
sure the crane body is stabilized properly. Then, hoist the load as directed by
signals.
k. When landing a load, lower the load by slow speed, stop it at 10 to 20 cm height
above the floor and make landing by the precision lowering manner according to
signals sent by the load. After the load is landed, stop the hook lowering and
confirm the stability of load. Then lower the hook at the appropriate height.
l. Lifting a load on poor ground foundations my cause the crane to incline. Inclination
of the mobile crane may increase the radius, leading to acceleration of inclination. If
this happens, lower the suspended load promptly.
m. Never pull the sling rope out of the load by using a crane. (The sling rope may be
caught by the load and this may cause load collapsing.)
n. During all crane operations, pay attention to vibrations of machinery, abnormal
noise, odor and heat. Do not clean, lubricate or repair machinery while an engine is
running
o. Prohibit the co-lifting operation which bring about the potential danger. When
carrying out the co-lifting operation due to unavoidable reason, carry out under the
direct supervision by the foreman and paying careful attention to the followings:

64
Project Name : Dubai Creek Harbour Development – Dubai Creek Residences

Client Project Manager Engineer Main Contractor

TEMPORARY WORK POLICY


 Use mobile cranes of identical capacity, if possible
 Position mobile cranes properly
 Carry out the work by hoisting and lowering operations only
 Approved lift plan site specific shall be in place prior to operation.

p. Prohibit the pick and carry operation as a general rule which may cause the over-
turning danger. When carry out it due to unavoidable reason, carry out while paying
careful attention to the followings:

 Select a flat ground surface location that is neither soft nor weak
 Keep the load at lowest height, prevent the load from swaying and put a
slewing lock into action
 Travel as slow as possible
 Make sure not to be overloaded
 Extend outriggers and keep float above the ground during traveling

v. Precaution in ending operation and during travelling

a. After finishing work, hoist up the hook block completely. When moving a mobile
crane with box jib to other, working sites, return the jib and outriggers to specified
traveling configuration and lock the slewing device.
b. As for the mobile crane equipped with P.T.O. (power-take-off), turn off the P.T.O.
control lever before traveling.
c. Descend slopes using engine brake force and exhaust brake simultaneously. Keep
crane traveling at safe speed while descending.
d. Do not perform the rough driving, such as excessive speed, abrupt start or stop,
zigzag etc.

TEMPORARY WORK POLICY

Sloping and Shoring for the Excavated Area

 Minimum sloping or shoring requirements and maximum spacing of timbers are given
in Tables 1 and 2 and illustrated in Figures 1 to 16. Variations from these standards or
alternate designs must be in accordance with written instructions from a professional
engineer.

 When or where shoring is required, no worker shall be in an excavation until support


systems are installed. Excavation support systems must be installed as soon as
possible after excavation to minimize soil movement. The support system must be
installed firmly in contact with the excavation walls. Any voids or spaces between the
shoring system and the excavation walls must be backfilled or blocked. Shoring walers
and struts should be installed starting near the top of the excavation, and progressing
downward. Removal of these members should progress upward from the bottom of the
trench.

 Shoring uprights must extend at least 300 mm (1 ft) above the top of trench walls
(except where road plates are being used). Uprights must go as close to the bottom of
the trench as permitted by the material being installed in the trench, but in no case
more than 600 mm (2 ft) from the bottom. Uprights must not be inclined outward more
than 15˚ from vertical when viewed along the trench.

 A combination of sloping and shoring may be used. Excavation slopes or supporting


systems must be inspected daily or more frequently if required, and must be effectively
maintained.

 The sides of the excavation must be trimmed or scaled to remove any loose material,
rocks, or other objects that could endanger workers.

 A level area extending 600 mm (2 ft) back from the edges of the trench must be
maintained free of materials and equipment.

 In trenches of similar excavations over 1.2 m (4 ft) deep, a ladder or other safe means
of entry and exit shall be provided in the immediate area where workers are employed.
The ladder must extend from the bottom of the excavation to at least 1 m (3 ft) above
the ground level.

 Walkways for access to a bulk excavation must be at least 500 mm (20 in) wide, and
have handrails and guardrails wherever required.

 Water must not be allowed to accumulate and remain in excavations. Erosion of


excavation faces or bearing surfaces must be controlled.

TEMPORARY WORK POLICY


 End shoring may be omitted where the soil conditions at the end of the trench do not
require shoring or where the maximum allowable spacing of uprights equals or
exceeds the width of the trench. End shoring is required where the spacing of uprights
must be close and tight or less than the trench width. Where end shoring is required,
the walers for the end shoring should be installed to bear against the walers that
extend along each side of the trench, or alternately in a manner that will provide
equivalent structural restraint.

 End shoring must be designed by a professional engineer where the trench width
exceeds 1.8 m (6 ft).

 Where the base width of an excavation exceeds 3.7 m (12 ft), shoring may require
engineering design or be impracticable. In an unsloped excavation that has not been
certified by a professional engineer, workers should remain clear from the base of the
slope a distance not less than the depth of the excavation. To ensure that workers do
not violate this minimum distance, barricades, warning ribbons, and/or signage should
be installed.

Back Filling

 Place Suitable material which shall be tested as per specificationE20-511D, for backfill
around the structure and other filling area wherever backfilling is required.
 Compact the location using suitable plate compactor /roller and compact it up to
95percent of MDD
 Compaction to be done for the max 200mm layer thickness
 Field density test shall be conducted for each layer as per the specification
