Where anchor piles or ground anchors are to be used, they shall be of adequate
strength to resist load up to 1.2 times the maximum test load on the ground, in a
safe manner without excessive movement or influence on the test pile. The
method employed in the installation shall be such to prevent damage to any test
pile or working pile.

4.3.2

The Contractor shall ensure that when the test load is applied, the load is
correctly transmitted to all the bolts and tie rods. The extension of rods by
welding shall not be permitted, unless it is known that the steel will not be
reduced in strength by welding. The bond stress of the rods in tension shall not
exceed normal permissible bond stresses of the type of steel and grade of
concrete used.

4.3.3

Where anchor piles are used, the centre to centre spacing of these piles from a
test pile shall be not less than three (3) times the diameter of the test pile, or the
anchor piles, or 2m, whichever is the greater. Under-reamed piles shall not be
used as anchor piles. Where permanent working piles are approved by the S.O.
to be used as anchor piles, their levels shall be observed during application of
the test load to ensure that there is no residual uplift.

4.3.4

Where ground anchors are used, no part of the section of the anchor transferring
load to the ground shall be closer to the test pile than three (3) times the
diameter of the test pile. Furthermore, no part of the ground anchor shall be
closer to a working pile than one-and-a-half times the diameter of the test pile
along the unbonded length of the anchor, and three (3) times the diameter of the
test pile along the bonded length of the anchor. Under-reams on ground anchors
shall not exceed 170mm in diameter.

with a load measuring device.

5.3

The hydraulic jack, pump, hoses, pipes, couplings and other apparatus to be operated
under hydraulic pressure, shall be capable of withstanding a test pressure equivalent to
one and a half (1) times the maximum test load without leakage.

5.4

Where the C.R.P. test is required, the jack pump capacity shall be adequate to maintain
the required rate of penetration. The permissible extension of the jack shall be such that
the pile can be moved continuously and without repacking for a distance of at least
50mm.

5.5

The measuring device shall be of the type approved by the S.O., capable of registering
loads in increments not exceeding 20 KN.

5.6

Preparation of a Working Pile to be Tested


6.1

General
If a test is required on a working pile, the Contractor shall prepare the pile for testing to
the approval of the S.O.

6.2

Driving Records
For each working pile which is to be tested, a detailed record of driving shall be made and
submitted to the S.O. daily, not later than noon on the next working day.

6.3

Cut-off Level
The pile shall terminate at the normal cut-off level or at a level required by the S.O.
However, where necessary, the pile shall be extended above the cut-off level of working
piles so that gauges and other apparatus to be used in the testing process will not be
damaged by water or falling debris. If the cut-off level is below ground level, the pile is not
extended and there is a risk of the borehole collapsing, a sleeve shall be left in place or
inserted above the pile, or other approved action shall be taken. Adequate clearance
shall be given between the top of the pile and the bottom of the sleeves to permit
unrestricted movement of the pile.

6.4

Pile Head for Compression Test


For pile that is tested in compression, the pile head or cap shall be formed to give a plane
surface which is normal to the axis of the pile. An approved mild steel bearing plate shall
be mounted on top of the pile head or cap to accommodate the loading and settlement
measuring equipment, and to prevent damage from the concentrated application of load
B/16

from the loading equipment.


6.5

Notice of Test
The Contractor shall give the S.O. at least 24 hours notice of the commencement of test.

7.

8.

Settlement Measurement
7.1

An independent reference frame shall be set up to permit measurement of the vertical


movement of the test pile. The support for the frame shall be located not closer than 2
metres from the test pile, and shall be rigidly fixed to the ground to a depth of not less
than 1m with concrete surround. In addition, the elevation of the supports shall be
checked frequently with reference to a fixed benchmark.

7.2

The entire measuring assembly shall be protected against rain, direct sunlight and other
disturbances that might affect its reliability. Temperature readings shall be taken when
requested by the S.O. The measurement of pile movement shall be made by four dial
gauges rigidly mounted on the reference frame that bear on machined metal or glass
surfaces, normal to the pile axis fixed to the pile cap or head. Alternatively, the gauges
may be fixed to the pile and bear on surfaces on the reference frame. The dial gauges
shall be placed in diametrically opposite positions, and be equidistant from the pile axis.
The dial gauges shall enable readings to be made to within an accuracy of 0.1mm, and
shall have a minimum travel of not less than 50mm.

7.3

The Contractor may submit other methods of measuring the movement of pile heads for
approval.

Test Procedure
8.1

General
Throughout the test period, all equipment for measuring load and movement shall be
protected from the effects of weather. Construction equipment and persons who are not
involved in the testing process shall be kept at a sufficient distance from the test to avoid
disturbance to the measurement apparatus.

8.2

Maintained Load Test


8.2.1

The load shall be applied in increment of 25% of the working load, up to the
working load and appropriately smaller thereafter, until a maximum test load of
twice the working load is reached. Each increment of load shall be applied as
smoothly and as expeditiously as possible. Settlement readings and time
observations shall be taken before and after each new load increment.

8.2.2

A time-settlement graph shall be plotted to indicate when the rate of settlement of


0.05mm in 15 minutes is reached. A further increment of load shall be applied
when this rate of settlement is achieved, or until a minimum time of 2 hours has
elapsed, whichever is later. The process shall be repeated until the maximum
test load is reached.

8.2.3

The maximum test load shall then be maintained for a minimum of 24 hours, and
time-settlement readings shall be taken at regular intervals, as for the earlier load
stages.

8.2.4

The test load shall then be decreased in four equal stages, and time-settlement
readings shall be as specified aforesaid, until the movement ceases. At least 60
B/17

Piling Work

minutes interval shall be allowed between the unloading decrements.


8.3

9.

Constant Rate of Penetration Test


8.3.1

The load shall be applied to achieve a constant rate of penetration value


between 0.75mm per minute to 1.50mm per minute. The rate chosen shall suit
the jacking equipment used.

8.3.2

Both settlement and time readings shall be recorded at every minute period.
Further loading shall be discontinued when the loading varies indirectly as the
penetration in the case of end bearing piles in sand or gravel, or when the rate of
penetration is constant without further increase in the load in the case of friction
piles in clay. Loading shall then be released gradually and rebound readings
taken.

change of source. The appropriate method of sampling and testing shall be in
accordance with the standards as specified in Table 1. Any batch of aggregate
rejected by the S.O. shall be removed from the Site.

2.2.5

Storage of Aggregates
Separate storage facilities with adequate provision for drainage shall be provided
for each different size of aggregate used.
Aggregate shall be handled and stored so as to minimise segregation and
contamination.

2.3

Water
Water shall comply with the requirements of MS 28. It shall be clean and free from
materials deleterious to concrete in the plastic and hardened state and shall be from a
source approved by the S.O. The S.O. may instruct the Contractor to carry out chemical
tests at any approved laboratory at the expense of the Contractor. The Contractor shall
make adequate arrangement to supply and store sufficient water at the Site for use in
mixing and curing of concrete.

2.4

Admixtures
Suitable admixtures may be used in concrete mixes with the prior approval of or as
directed by the S.O.
The admixtures, the sampling and testing of the admixtures and the information to be
provided with the admixture supplied shall comply with MS 922.
All admixtures shall be used strictly in accordance with manufacturers instructions.
Before allowing the admixture to be used in the Work, relevant tests based on trial mixes
D/2

Concrete Work

shall be carried out. A control mix shall be made using a conventional trial mix that is
without using the admixture, to determine the free water: cement ratio and mix proportion
required to give the specified strength with the required slump. Using the same mix
proportion as in the control mix but with a modified water: cement ratio whenever
necessary, a test shall be carried out using the recommended dosage of the admixture.
The results of the relevant test obtained from the control mix and test mix shall be
compared. The S.O. may allow the use of the admixture only when the results are found
to be satisfactory and comparable to the effects as claimed by the manufacturer. The
admixture acceptance test shall comply with the requirements specified in Table 4.
The uses of admixtures that are chloride based are not permitted for structural concrete
containing reinforcement, prestressing tendons or other embedded metal. The Contractor
shall submit documentary evidence on the contents of the admixture to be used.
When the Contractor proposes the use of super-plasticiser, special control tests shall be
carried out with prior approval of the S.O. The tests shall be carried out in accordance
with the latest standard and the manufacturers recommendations.
If two or more admixtures are proposed to be used simultaneously in the same concrete
mix, the Contractor shall furnish the S.O. with supporting data on their suitability and
compatibility.
2.5

Additional Materials
Condensed silica fumes (CSF) complying with ASTM C1240 93 or any other equivalent
standards may be used provided that the concrete complies with the same grade as would
be achieved by the Portland cement concrete complying with MS 522 and prior approval of
the S.O is obtained

3.0

Classification of Concrete Mixes


Unless otherwise stated in the Drawings, the concrete mix shall be designed mix. However,
prescribed mix may be used provided: (a)
(b)
(c)

The work is of minor nature or involving a small quantity of concrete,


Prior approval of the S.O. is given, and
The strength of the concrete is still the responsibility of the Contractor.

When Portland Pulverized-Fuel Ash Cement or Portland Slag Cement is specified to be used, the
concrete mix shall be of designed mix only.
3.1

Prescribed Mix
Prescribed mix shall be as detailed in Table 5. The mix prescribed in the table does not
require the use of admixture.
For small volume concreting work, volume batching is permitted provided prior approval
of the S.O. is obtained. The proportion shall be as specified in Table 5A.

3.2

Designed Mix
Designed mix shall comply with the recommendations of MS1195. The minimum cement
content and maximum free water: cement ratio to be used shall be as shown in Table 6
and this shall supersede Table 14 of BS 5328.
The Contractor shall comply with the following requirements:
a) Notify the S.O. whether the designed mix is to be produced as site mix or ready mix.
b) If the Contractor chooses to use ready mix concrete, he shall notify the S.O. the name of the
D/3
Concrete Work

supplier, location of the ready mix plant, journey time taken to transport the concrete
to the Site and production capacity of the plant.
c) Submit a mix design report covering all concrete mixes to the S.O. for approval. The
designed mix shall comply with the requirements specified in Table 6.
d) The Contractor shall ensure that the S.O. be permitted to visit or station his
representative at the plant at any stage of the concrete production.
e) The sampling, making, curing and testing of the cubes shall be carried out by the
Contractor in accordance with MS 30 or as directed by and in the presence of the
S.O. or his representative. Test cubes shall be stored by the S.O. at a secured place.
The Contractor shall provide all facilities in connection therewith.
When Portland Pulverized-Fuel Ash Cement complying with MS 1227 or Portland
Slag Cement complying with MS 1389 is used, depending on the percentage
combination used as allowed by MS 1226 or MS 1387 respectively, it may be necessary to
increase the total cement content to achieve concrete of equal strength development when
compared with concrete using Portland cement complying with MS 522. Tests on
trial mixes shall be carried out in accordance with 3.2.3 and the results shall be approved by
the S.O.
In all cases, it is the responsibility of the Contractor to ensure that the designed mix shall
be durable, workable, comply with the strength grade and other requirements as specified in
the Drawings.
3.2.1

Target mean strength


The concrete mix shall be designed to have at least the required minimum cement
content, as specified in Table 6, and to have a target mean strength greater
than the required grade of concrete by at least the current margin.
The current margin for each particular type of concrete shall be determined by the
Contractor and shall be taken as the lesser of:
a)

1.64 times the standard deviation of cube tests on at least 100 separate
batches of concrete of nominally similar proportion of similar
materials and produced over a period not exceeding 12 months by the
same plant under similar supervision, but not less than 2.5 N/mm2 for
concrete, of grade 15 or 3.75 N/mm2 for concrete of grade 20 or above.

b)

1.64 times the standard deviation of cube tests on at least 40 separate


batches of concrete of nominally similar proportions of similar
materials and produced over a period exceeding 5 days but not
exceeding 6 months by the same plant under similar supervision, but
not less than 5 N/mm2 for concrete of grade 15 or 7.5 N/mm2 for
concrete of grade 20 or above.

Where there are insufficient data to satisfy (a) and (b) above, the margin for the initial
mix design shall be taken as 7.5 N/mm2 for concrete of grade 15 and 12 N/mm2 for
concrete of grade 20 or above. This margin shall be used as the current margin
only until sufficient data are available to satisfy (a) or (b) above. However,
subjected to the approval of the S.O., when the specified characteristic strength
approaches the designed target mean strength of concrete made with a
particular aggregate, a smaller margin not less than 5 N/mm2 for concrete of
grade 15 or 7.5 N/mm2 for concrete of grade 20 or above may be used for the
initial mix design.
3.2.2

Suitability of Proposed Mix Proportions


The Contractor shall submit for the approval of the S.O., prior to the supply of
any designed mix, the following information:

D/4
Concrete Work

a)
b)

c)

3.2.3

The nature and source of each material,


Appropriate existing data as evidence of acceptable previous
performance for target mean strength, current margin, workability and
water: cement ratio; OR full details of tests on trial mixes carried out in
accordance with 3.2.3, and
The proposed quantities by weight of each material per cubic meter of fully
compacted concrete.

Trial Mixes
Unless otherwise stated and approved by the S.O in writing that the Contractor
has complied with the submission specified in 3.2.2, trial mix shall be carried out.
The Contractor shall give early notice, to enable the S.O. to be present at the
making of trial mixes and preliminary testing of the cubes. The Contractor shall
prepare trial mixes, using samples of approved material typical of those he
proposes to use in the Work, for all grades to the approval of the S.O. prior
to commencement of concreting.
Sampling and testing procedures shall be in accordance with MS 26. Three
separate batches of concrete shall be made. The workability of each of the three trial
batches determined by means of the slump test or compacting factor test
or vebe consistometer test or as specified in accordance with MS 26,
shall be appropriate to the proposed uses and methods of placing and compaction of
the mix and shall be approved by the S.O. Six cubes shall be made from each
batch. Three from each set of six shall be tested at an age of 7 days and three at an age
of 28 days. The average strength of the nine cubes tested at 28 days shall
exceed the specified characteristic strength by the current margin minus 3.5 N/mm2.
The approved trial mixes shall then be designated as the designed mix and
its corresponding workability as the designed workability.
During production, the S.O. may require additional trial mixes to be made before a
substantial change is made in the materials or in the proportion of the material to be
used. Trial mixes need not be carried out when adjustments are made to the mix
proportions in accordance with 3.2.4.

3.2.4

Control Strength of Designed Mixes


a)

Adjustment to Mix Proportions


Adjustment to mix proportions shall be made to the approval of the
S.O. in order to minimise the variability of strength and to maintain the target
mean strength. The specified limits of minimum cement content and
maximum free water: cement ratio shall be maintained. Changes in
cement have to be declared.
An increase or reduction of cement content by greater than 20 kg/ m,
or of fine aggregate by greater than 5%, or any changes in the type or
dosage of admixture, or any changes in the type of cement, or
consistency is considered a change in mix design.

b)

Change in Current Margin


A change in current margin used for judging compliance with specified
characteristic strength becomes appropriate when results of a
sufficiently large number of tests show that the previously established
margin is significantly too large or too small.
Recalculation of the margin shall be carried out in accordance with
3.2.1. Although a recalculated margin is almost certain to differ numerically
D/5
Concrete Work

from the previous value, the adoption of the recalculated value will not
generally be justified if the two values differ by less than 18% when
based on tests on 40 separate batches or less than 11% when
based on tests on 100 separate batches or less than 5% when based on
tests on 500 separate batches.
On the adoption of a recalculated margin, it shall become the current margin
for the judgment of compliance with the specified characteristic strength of
concrete produced subsequent to the change.
3.3

Requirements for Concrete


3.3.1

Workability
The workability of the fresh concrete shall be judged by its suitability for the
condition of handling and placing so that after compaction, it surrounds all
reinforcement, tendons and ducts and completely fills the formwork.

and /or in the Bill of Quantities.
(Concrete shall be designated as GRADE X/Y where X is the numerical value of
the characteristic strength at 28 days in N/mm2, and Y is the nominal maximum
size of aggregate in mm. For prescribed mix, a suffix P shall be added after X).

3.3.3

Cement content in this specification shall refer to the total quantities of cement as
approved in 2.1, or the total quantities of cementitious materials comprising Portland
cement and p.f.a or g.g.b.s.
3.3.3.1 Minimum Cement Content
The minimum cement content shall be in accordance with Table 6,
unless otherwise shown in the Drawings.
3.3.3.2 Maximum Cement Content
The maximum cement content shall not exceed 550 kg/ m3 unless

D/6

Concrete Work

other source shall not in any circumstances exceed the limits in Table 7
expressed as a percentage relationship between chloride ions and weight of
cement in the mix.
When necessary, tests shall be carried out in accordance with BS 1881: Part 124
for each grade of concrete, to demonstrate that these limits are not exceeded.
3.3.5

Maximum Sulphate Content


The total estimated sulphate content of any mix, including that present in the
cement shall not exceed 4% by weight of cement in the mix. Where necessary,
tests shall be carried out in accordance with BS 1881: Part 124 for each grade of
concrete to demonstrate that this limit is not exceeded.

4.0

Concrete Compressive Strength Tests and Compliance


4.1

General
All sampling, curing and testing of concrete, fresh or hardened, shall be carried out in
accordance with MS 26 and the relevant Parts of BS 1881. The compressive strength of
concrete shall be measured by crushing tests on nominal 150mm cubes as specified in
MS 26. Tests shall be carried out in an engineering laboratory approved by the S.O.
4.1.1

Prescribed Mix
A prescribed mix shall be judged on the basis of the specified mix proportions
based on the batches observation. The mix proportion shall be within 5% of the
values specified and the workability shall be chosen to suit the construction
requirements as described in Table 5.

4.1.2

Designed Mix
The characteristic strength of a designed mix concrete is the compressive
strength below which not more than 5% of the test results may be expected to fall.
Compliance with the specified characteristic strength shall be judged by tests made
on cubes at an age of 28 days. The workability shall be as described in 3.3.1.

4.2

Sampling and Testing


Notwithstanding this, compressive strength tests shall be carried out during the progress of
Work. The rate of sampling shall be as specified in 4.3. For each sampling, three cubes
shall be made from a single sample taken from a randomly selected batch of concrete. The
sample shall be taken at the point of discharge from the mixer or, in the case of ready mixed
concrete, at the point of discharge from the delivery vehicle. All cubes shall be clearly
marked with undeletable paint with the date of casting and serial number. A record
shall be kept to identify each cube by date and by serial number relating to the part of the work
from which they are taken.
One cube from each sample batch shall be tested for the 7-day compressive strength. The
remaining two cubes from the sample batch shall be tested for the 28-day compressive
strength.

4.3

Rate of Sampling for Testing


The indicative sampling rate shall be as follows:
a)

One sample per 10.0 m3 or every group of 10 batches for critical structures e.g.
prestressed concrete, masts, cantilevers, columns, footing, pile caps, shear wall,
retaining wall.
D/7
Concrete Work

b)

One sample per 20.0m3 or every group of 20 batches e.g. slabs, beams.

c)

One sample per 50.0 m3 or every group of 50 batches e.g. raft foundation and
mass concrete.

Notwithstanding the above, a minimum of two samples shall be taken on each concreting
day for a particular grade and source of concrete for prescribed mix.
However, for designed mix, at least four samples (12 cubes) shall be taken of concrete on
the first day of concreting for each grade of concrete to be used in the Work, irrespective of the
volume of concrete produced or the sampling rate. Subsequent rate of sampling shall be at
least one sample from each source of production on each day that concrete of any
particular grade is used.
The actual rate of sampling may be increased in appropriate circumstances e.g. for
critical elements, when required by the S.O.
4.4

Cubes Strength at 7 Days


One cube from each sample batch shall be tested for the 7-day compressive strength.
The cube compressive strength shall not fall below the corresponding values given in Table 8
for prescribed mix, and two-third of the 28-day compressive strength for designed mix.

4.5

Cube Strength at 28 days and Compliance Requirements


The remaining two cubes from the sample batch shall be tested for the 28-day
compressive strength.
4.5.1

Prescribed Mix
The appropriate strength requirement shall be considered complied if at least one of
the following conditions is satisfied with:
a)
b)

4.5.2

None of the two test cubes is below the specified compressive strength
as specified in Table 8
The average strength of the two test cubes is not less than the specified
compressive strength and the difference between the two strengths is
not more than 20% of the average.

Designed Mix
The average strength of the two cubes shall constitute the 28-day compressive
strength of the sample. When the difference between the two results divided by their
mean exceeds 15%, the test results shall be deemed invalid.
For compliance purposes of the specified compressive strength, both of the following
conditions shall be satisfied:
a)

b)

4.6

The mean strength determined from the first two, three or four consecutive
test results, or from any group of four consecutive test results complies
with the appropriate limits in column A of Table 8A. In this respect,
consecutive samples are samples taken at intervals for the day of concreting or
one complete continuous process of concreting.
Any individual test result complies with the appropriate limits in column B of
Table 8A.

Tests for Consistency


While work on concreting is in progress, tests on workability of the mix shall be carried out at
suitable interval and in addition whenever any materials or the proportions of the mix
D/8

Concrete Work

are changed, or when directed by the S.O. The test shall consist of the Slump test, the
Compacting Factor test or Vebe test where applicable as described in MS 26. The workability
shall be as described in 3.3.1.
4.7

Action to be taken in the Event of Non Compliance


In the event that the compressive strength results of the test do not meet the specified
requirements mentioned in 4.4 and 4.5, or otherwise arising from the result of the statistical analysis
carried out in 4.11, the S.O. shall determine the action to be taken.
If the 7-day strength is less than the specified strength requirements, no more concrete
shall be placed on the suspect concrete and no removal of propping on the affected area
shall be allowed until the 28-day strength result compliance is available, or unless
otherwise approved by the S.O in writing.
For non-compliance of 28-day compressive strength, the section of work represented by the
samples which fail the test carried out in accordance with 4.5 shall be removed. However, in the
event of non-compliance arising from the result of the statistical analysis carried out in 4.11 for the
designed mix, the whole of work represented by the samples used in the analysis shall be removed.
The work shall be replaced by concrete meeting with this specification. For the case of designed
mix, the Contractor shall redesign his mix based on an increased target mean strength.
Alternatively, the S.O may direct other measures to be taken to make the works secure. The S.O
may instruct that additional tests be carried out on the hardened concrete to determine the quality
of the suspected concrete. The test may include non-destructive methods (MS 26), taking
cored samples (MS 26), load test or combination of several methods. The results shall
be assessed in accordance with BS 6089. The results of any such tests shall not nullify
the establishment of non-compliance with 4.5.
All works instructed under this clause shall be at the Contractors expense and no extension
of time shall be granted for such works.

4.8

Other Failures
All defective concrete works such as badly constructed concrete members with poor
alignment and plumb, honeycombing, badly formed surfaces, and failure during
construction such as sagging of beams and slabs shall be removed and made good or
otherwise rectified in accordance with the S.O.s instruction at the Contractors expense.

4.9

Additional Cubes
Additional cubes may be required for various purposes. These shall be made and tested
in accordance with MS26 but the methods of sampling and the conditions under which
the cubes are stored shall be varied according to the purpose for which they are required.
For determining the cube strength of prestressed concrete before transfer or of concrete
in a member before striking formwork, sampling shall be at the point of placing and the
cubes shall be stored under the same conditions as the concrete in the members.
The extra cubes shall be identified at the time of marking and shall not be used for normal
quality control or compliance procedures.

4.10

Recording of Test Results


All concrete cube test results and summary shall be recorded using appropriate forms in
a manner and format approved by the S.O. The 7-day and 28-day strength results shall
be recorded separately with its corresponding cement content obtained from the batching
record submitted during delivery (if ready mix concrete is used) of fresh concrete. The
corresponding workability shall also be recorded.

D/9
Concrete Work

Changes to sources of materials, concrete supplier, current margin, target mean strength,
cement content or any other such changes to the parameters of the concrete mix, shall
also be recorded separately. All records shall be duly verified jointly between the S.O or
his Representative and the Contractor.
The records shall be analysed to meet the following compliance requirements as
stipulated in 4.5:

4.11

a.

The individual test result and the average values obtained from the samples
noting the validity values and to comply with column A of Table 8A.

b.

The group test results and analyse the mean values to comply with column B of
Table 8A.

Statistical Analysis
Statistical analysis shall be carried out based on the test results recorded in 4.10. The
Contractor shall submit to the S.O, the following analysis:

5.0

a)

Running analysis of group test results and the mean values plotted for normal
distribution graph. Standard deviation (S.D) is then calculated. The value of S.D
obtained, when multiplying with 1.64 (statistical constant complying with MS
1195) will give the value of the current margin.

b)

The current margin value should not fall below the designed current margin
specified when performing the earlier trial mix. If the current margin falls below
the designed value, the S.O may inspect the plant supplying the concrete,
instruct the Contractor to redesign his mix and to take appropriate action as per
4.7

Production of Concrete
5.1

Supervision
The Contractor shall ensure the required standard of control over materials and
workmanship. The S.O. shall be afforded all reasonable opportunities and facilities to
inspect the constituent materials and the production of concrete and to take samples for
testing.

5.2

Batching and Mixing


The quantities of cement, fine aggregate and various sizes of coarse aggregate shall be
measured by weight unless otherwise approved by the S.O. A separate weighing
machine shall be provided for weighing the cement. Alternatively, the cement may be
measured by using a whole number of bags in each batch. The quantity of water shall be
measured by volume or by weight. Any solid admixtures to be added shall be measured
by weight; liquid or paste admixtures shall be measured by volume or weight.
The batch weight of aggregate shall be adjusted to allow for the moisture content of the
aggregate being used. All measuring equipment shall be calibrated on site or their
calibration status established by certificates from accredited laboratories.
The mixer shall comply with the requirements of BS 1305 where applicable. The mixing
time shall be not less than two minutes and not more than five minutes or any other time
recommended by the mixer manufacturer after all the ingredients have been placed in the
mixer.
Mixers that have been out of use for more than 30 minutes shall be thoroughly cleaned
before any fresh concrete is mixed. Unless otherwise agreed by the S.O., the first batch
D/10

Concrete Work

of concrete through the mixer shall contain only two thirds of the normal quantity of
coarse aggregate. The mixer shall be thoroughly cleaned before changing from one type
of cement to another.
The water content of each batch of concrete may be adjusted so as to produce concrete
of the workability required. However care shall be taken to ensure the free water: cement
ratio is maintained. The total amount of water added to the mix shall be recorded.
5.3

Ready Mixed Concrete


Ready mixed concrete is concrete produced by a third party supplier for delivery to a
Contractor in a plastic state. The materials of the concrete are batched, either dry or wet,
at a control plant and transported in purpose-made agitators operating continuously or
truck mixers to the Site.
Ready mixed concrete shall comply with the requirements of designed mix as in clause
3.2 and MS 523. All concrete materials, including water and admixtures shall be mixed in the
plant and delivered to Site in purpose made truck mixers. No extra water or admixtures are allowed
to be added after the concrete has left the plant.
Ready mixed concrete delivered to the Site shall be accompanied by delivery ticket and
manufacturer's batching record stating the details of mix proportions by weight, the grade of
concrete, type and size of aggregate, date and time of loading at plant, type and dosage
of chemical admixtures and other relevant production details in suitable format, failing
which the S.O, or his representative, shall immediately reject the total load of the concrete.
The S.O, or his representative, and the contractor shall ensure the information provided in the
delivery tickets and the manufacturers batching record complies with the details of the
approved designed mix and its corresponding designed workability as in 3.2.3 before
discharging the concrete.
Rejected concrete shall be removed from the Site. The delivery ticket shall be marked
REJECTED.

5.4

Transporting
Concrete shall be transported from the mixer to the formwork as rapidly as practicable by
methods, which will prevent segregation or loss of any constituents or ingress of foreign
matter or water and maintain the required workability. It shall be deposited as near as
practicable in its final position to avoid rehandling or moving the concrete horizontally by
vibration. The concrete shall be conveyed by chutes or concrete pumps only with
permission from the S.O.

5.5

Placing
5.5.1

Placing of Concrete in Dry Condition


For all concrete whether mixed on or off the site of the Work, each batch shall be
placed and compacted within two (2) hours of adding the cement to the dry
aggregates and within 45 minutes (or any other period of time based on the trial
mix as per 2.4, 3.2.3 and approved by the S.O. if an admixture is used) of adding
water to the cement and aggregate. Concrete shall not be placed in any part of
the structure until the approval of the S.O. has been obtained. If concreting is
not started within 24 hours of approval given, approval shall again be obtained
from the S.O.
All formwork and reinforcement contained in it shall be clean and free from
standing water immediately before the placing of concrete. Concreting shall be
carried out continuously between and up to predetermined construction joints in
one sequence of operation. It shall be thoroughly compacted by either hand
tamping or mechanical vibration or both and shall be thoroughly worked into the
D/11
Concrete Work

corners. After tamping into place the concrete shall not be subjected to
disturbance other than such as incidental to compaction by vibration. In the event
of unavoidable stoppage in positions not predetermined, the concreting shall be
terminated on a horizontal plane and against vertical surfaces by the use of stop
boards. The location for termination shall be subjected to the approval of the
S.O.
Fresh concrete shall not be placed against in-situ concrete which has been in
position for more than 45 minutes (or any other period of time based on the trial
mix as per 2.4, 3.2.3 and approved by the S.O. if an admixture is used) unless a
construction joint is formed in accordance with sub-section 6.1. When in-situ
concrete has been in place for four hours, no further concrete shall be placed
against it for a further 20 hours. Where retarding admixture has been used, the
S.O. may approve variation to this limit.
Except where otherwise approved by the S.O., concrete shall be deposited in
horizontal layers to a compacted depth not exceeding 450 mm when internal
vibrators are used or 300 mm in all other cases. The surface of the concrete shall
be maintained reasonably level during placing.
Concrete shall not be dropped into place from a height exceeding 1.5 meters.
However, higher drops may be allowed provided the mix has been well designed
and proportioned. When trunking or chutes are used, they shall be kept clean
and used in such a manner as to avoid segregation.
The Contractor shall maintain an experienced steel fixer at the site of reinforced
concrete works during the placing of concrete to reposition any reinforcement
which may be displaced.
5.5.2

Placing of Concrete Under Water


No concrete shall be placed in flowing water. Underwater concrete if deemed
unavoidable, shall be placed in position by Tremie pipes from the mixer.
Concrete to be placed under water shall be of an approved mix with the amount
of cement increased by 20%. During and after concreting under water, pumping
or dewatering operations in the immediate vicinity shall be suspended until the
S.O. permits them to continue. Where the concrete is placed by a Tremie pipe,
the following requirements shall be applicable: i)

The hopper and tremie pipe shall be a closed system. The bottom of the
Tremie pipe shall be kept as far as practicable beneath the surface of
the placed concrete.

ii)

The tremie pipe shall be large enough with due regard to the size of
aggregate. For 20 mm aggregates, the Tremie pipe shall be of a
diameter not less than 150 mm and for larger aggregates, a bigger
diameter Tremie pipe approved by the S.O. shall be used.

iii)

Unless otherwise agreed by the S.O., the first charge of concrete shall
be placed with a sliding plug pushed down the Tremie pipe ahead of it to
prevent mixing of concrete and water.

iv)

The Tremie pipe shall always penetrate well into the concrete with an
adequate margin of safety against accidental withdrawal if the pipe is
surged to discharge the concrete.

v)

The concrete shall be deposited wholly by Tremie pipe and the method
of deposition shall not be changed part way up to prevent the laitance
from being entrapped within the structure.

D/12
Concrete Work

vi)
5.6

All Tremie pipes shall be properly cleaned after use.

Placement Temperature
Placement temperature shall comply with MS 1195 to prevent premature setting and loss of
water during placing of concrete in the formwork and the following precautions shall be taken:
a) At the time of placing, no part of the concrete shall have a temperature
exceeding 36oC. This may be achieved by cooling the water and aggregate prior to mixing.
b) Concrete shall not be placed in forms or around reinforcement whose temperature
exceeds 36oC. This can be achieved by providing shading or other means to
protect from direct sunlight.
c) Freshly placed concrete shall be protected from direct sunlight and from loss of moisture by
covering, shading or other means.
d) No concrete shall be placed when the air temperature at the point of deposition
exceeds 36oC
However, higher temperatures may be allowed provided it can be proven that it shall not
result in any detrimental effect to the concrete work.

5.7

Compaction
Unless otherwise approved by the S.O., concrete shall be thoroughly compacted by
vibration and thoroughly worked around the reinforcement, tendons or duct formers,
around embedded fixtures and into corners of the formwork to form a dense,
homogenous mass, free from voids and which will have the required surface finish when
the formwork is removed. Vibration shall be applied continuously during the placing of
each batch of concrete until the expulsion of air has practically ceased and in a manner
which does not promote segregation of the ingredients.
The concrete maintained between the two walls of formwork shall be compacted by
internal or external vibrators. Concrete in slabs with no formwork on its upper surface
shall be compacted either by vibrators of the pan type or by a vibrating screen.
The internal vibrators shall be inserted and withdrawn slowly and at a uniform pace of
approximately 100 mm per second. Compaction shall be deemed to be completed when
cement mortar appears in an annulus around the vibrator. Over vibration leading to
segregation of the mix must be avoided. The internal vibrators shall be inserted at points
judged by the area of mortar showing after compaction, with a certain allowance made for
overlapping and they shall not be allowed to come into contact with the formwork or the
reinforcement and shall be inserted at a distance of not less than 75 mm from the
formwork.
The pan vibrator shall be placed on the surface of the concrete, which shall have
previously been tamped and leveled leaving an allowance in height for compaction until
the cement mortar appears under the pan. The vibrator shall then be lifted and placed on
the adjoining surface and this operation shall be repeated until the whole surface has
been compacted. Alternatively, a vibrating screen spanning the full width of the surface
may also be used.
Whenever vibration has to be applied externally, the design of formwork and disposition
of vibration shall receive special consideration to ensure efficient compaction and to avoid
surface blemishes. The vibration shall be such that there will be no excess water on the
top surface on completion of compaction.
External vibrators shall be firmly secured to the formwork which must be sufficiently rigid
to transmit the vibration and strong enough not to be damaged by it.
D/13
Concrete Work

Internal vibrators shall be capable of operating at not less than 10,000 cycles per minute
and external vibrators at not less than 3,000 cycles per minute. Sufficient vibrators in
serviceable condition shall be on Site so that spare equipment is always available in the
event of breakdowns. Vibrators shall be operated by workmen skilled in their use.
Concrete shall not be subjected to any disturbance within 24 hours after compaction. No
standing or flowing water shall be allowed to come into contact with exposed concrete
surfaces during the first two (2) hours after placing and compaction of the concrete.
In the event where inadequate or improper compaction is suspected, the S.O. has the
right to inspect and to carry out further tests. The tests may include non-destructive and
destructive methods. All expenses incurred in carrying out such sampling, testing and
remedial works shall be borne by the Contractor irrespective of whether the tests prove
the structure to be sound or otherwise.
5.8

Curing and Protection


All concrete work shall be cured for the full period of curing which shall not be less than five (5)
days for F1, F2, F3 and F4 surfaces, but not less than three (3) days for F11, F12, F13,
F14 and F15 surfaces.
Curing and protection shall start immediately after compaction of the concrete to
protect it from:
a)

Impact damage such as shock, overloading or falling earth which may disrupt the
concrete and interface with its bond to reinforcements.

b)

Premature drying out from direct sunlight and wind.

c)

Leaching out by rain and flowing water.

d)

High internal thermal gradients.

5.8.1

Normal Curing And Protection


Concrete, after it is placed and until the expiration of the curing duration, shall not be
allowed to dry out. Provision shall be made for adequate protection against direct sunlight
and wind to allow the process of curing to complete within the specified period.
Curing and protection shall be accomplished by covering the exposed
concrete surface with an impermeable material such as polyethylene sheet,
which should be well sealed and fastened and if required, this treatment can
be continued efficiently throughout the whole period of curing.
When the concrete has attained its final set, one of the following curing methods shall
be adopted:
a)

Water curing shall be accomplished by keeping the surface of the


concrete continuously wet by ponding with water.

b)

Curing may be accomplished by sealing in the water as specified


above by covering with an approved waterproofed curing paper or
plastic sheeting laid with airtight joints. It must be securely positioned to prevent
displacement by wind and protected from tearing or other injury.

The use of other methods of curing may be deemed necessary when the concrete is
subjected to high internal thermal gradient, or with large exposed surface area. The
Contractor shall submit a method statement to the approval of the S.O.
In the event where the Contractor does not do proper curing, the S.O. has the
D/14
Concrete Work

right to inspect and to carry out further tests which may include destructive
methods. All expenses incurred in carrying out such sampling, testing and
remedial works shall be borne by the Contractor irrespective of whether the tests
proved the structure to be sound or otherwise.
5.8.2

Accelerated Curing
Elevated temperature curing may be used only with Ordinary Portland Cement.
After the completion of the placing of concrete, four (4) hours shall elapse before
its temperature is raised, unless the Contractor is able to prove that curing can
start earlier by furnishing all the relevant supporting data to the S.O. The rise in
temperature within any period of 30 minutes shall not exceed 10oC and
maximum temperature attained shall not exceed 70oC unless it can be proven
that any deviation from this provision shall not result in any detrimental effect to
the concrete work. The rate of subsequent cooling shall not exceed the rate of
heating. The use of accelerated curing methods for concrete containing other
types of cement or any admixture or any additional materials shall be to the
approval of the S.O.

6.0

Construction with Concrete


6.1

Construction Joints
The position and detail of any construction joints not described in the Drawings shall be to
the approval of the S.O. and shall be so arranged as to minimise the possibility of the
occurrence of shrinkage cracks.
If for any reason the Contractor has to interrupt a planned pour for more than 45 minutes
(or any other period of time based on the trial mix as per 2.4, 3.2.3 and approved by the S.O.
if an admixture is used), additional construction joints shall be positioned and constructed
as directed by the S.O.
The number of construction joints shall be kept as few as possible consistent with
reasonable precautions against shrinkage. Concreting shall be carried out continuously
up to construction joints. The joints shall be at right angles to the general direction of the
member and shall take due account of shear and other stresses.
Concrete shall not be allowed to run to a feather edge and vertical joints shall be formed
against a stop board. The top surface of a layer of concrete shall be level and flat unless
design considerations make this undesirable. Joint lines shall be so arranged that they
coincide with features of the finished work, wherever possible.
At horizontal construction joints, gauge strips about 25 mm width shall be placed inside
the forms along all exposed surfaces to ensure a straight joint on those surfaces.
Where a kicker (i.e., a starter stub) is used for the construction of walls and columns, it
shall be at least 50 mm high, to be constructed monolithically with the base concrete.
Where vertical construction joints are necessary in mass concrete structures, reinforcing
bars shall be placed across the joints so as to make the structure monolithic, all to the
approval of the S.O.
Prior to recommencement of concreting on a joint, the surface of the concrete against
which new concrete will be cast shall be free from laitance and shall be roughened to the
extent that the coarse aggregate is exposed but not disturbed. Care shall be taken to
avoid damaging the lines of the joint. Care shall also be taken that the joint surface is
clean and damp but not wet and the exposed adjoining surfaces shall be of consistent colour.
Immediately before the fresh concrete is placed against the joint, fresh rich cement mortar
(1:2) shall be applied to the exposed surface.
D/15
Concrete Work

Where the S.O. considers that special preparation is necessary, e.g. for an in-situ
structural connection, preparation shall be carried out, preferably when the concrete has
set but not hardened, by spraying with a fine spray of air and water or brushing with a stiff
brush sufficiently to remove the outer mortar skin and expose the larger aggregates
without disturbing them. Where this treatment is impracticable, sand blasting or a needle
gun shall be used to remove the surface skin and laitance. Hardened surfaces shall be
chipped manually or mechanically to be free from laitance and properly roughened to the
extent that the coarse aggregates are being exposed.
6.2

Fixing Blocks, Brackets, Built In Bolts, Holes, Chases, etc.


All fixing blocks, brackets, built in bolts, holes, chases, etc. shall be accurately set out and
formed and carefully sealed prior to the concrete being placed. It is the responsibility of
the Contractor to obtain all such information for these items of work and obtain the
permission of the S.O. before incorporating such work prior to the concrete being placed.
Bolts and other inserts to be cast into the concrete shall be securely fixed to the formwork
in such a way that they are not displaced during the concreting operations and that there
is no loss of materials from the wet concrete through holes in the formwork.
Unless otherwise shown in the Drawings or instructed by the S.O., reinforcement shall be
locally moved so that the minimum specified cover is maintained at the locations of
inserts, holes, chases, etc. In the event where the minimum cover cannot be maintained,
the Contractor shall take the necessary precautions to protect the reinforcements against
corrosion by applying an approved coating materials to the reinforcements and the
concrete cover.
Temporary plugs shall be removed and the threads of built in bolts shall be cleaned and
greased before handing over any part of the Work.

Formwork and Surface Finish For Structure


8.1

Design and Construction


8.1.1

Description
Formwork shall include all temporary or permanent forms required for forming
the concrete, together with all temporary construction required for their support.
The Contractor is deemed to have made a study of the Drawings at tender stage
and is aware of all areas of construction, requiring heavy and specially designed
propping to provide the support and the necessary bracing for the stability of
such propping.
The design and construction of formwork shall be carried out by a competent
person. The Contractor shall identify all critical formwork design and submit the
strength and deflection calculations and Drawings or the proposed design,
certified by a Professional Engineer to the S.O. for prior approval.
Notwithstanding any approval by the S.O. with respect to the design submitted
by the Contractor, the responsibility or the adequacy and safety of the design
shall remain with the Contractor. The Contractor shall also appoint a competent
formwork coordinator whose duties would be similar to those outlined in BS
5975.
When the use of proprietary type of formwork is proposed by the Contractor, the
design shall be certified by a Professional Engineer.
The formwork shall be sufficiently rigid and tight to prevent loss of grout or mortar
from the concrete at all stages of construction and shall be appropriate for the
methods of placing and compacting.
Formwork (including supports) shall be sufficiently rigid to maintain the forms in
their correct position, shape, profile and dimensions. The supports shall be
designed to withstand the worst combination of forces due to self weight,
formwork weight, formwork forces, reinforcement weight, wet concrete weight,
construction and wind loads, together with all incidental dynamic effects caused
by placing, vibrating and compacting the concrete. Guidance on these loadings is
given in The Concrete Society Manual Formwork Guide to good practice, and
in CIRIA Report 108, Concrete Pressure in Formwork, and in BS 5975. Vertical
propping to formwork shall be carried down sufficiently far to provide the
necessary support without overstressing the completed concrete structure.
Metal ties may only be used with the prior approval of the S.O. Where metal ties
are permitted, the use of storey height steel soldiers shall be used to reduce the
number of tie bolts required. Tie bolts with rubber or plastic cone against the form
face are to be used to prevent unsightly grout loss. No metal part of any device
for maintaining formwork in the correct location shall remain permanently within
the specified concrete cover to the reinforcement. Except for ties used for
anchoring void formers, all ties shall be at least 1.2 meters apart and through
bolts will not be permitted on exposed form finished faces. All holes left by ties
shall be made good within one day of the removal of the formwork using a mortar
of the same strength as the cast concrete. Metal ties which allow for holes
through the concrete being cast shall not be permitted to be used in concrete for
water-retaining structure, roof slabs and walls.
The formwork shall be so arranged as to be readily dismantled and removed
from the cast concrete without shock, disturbance or damage. Where necessary,
the formwork shall be so arranged that the soffit form, properly supported, can be
retained in position for such period as may be required by the condition of the
maturing concrete or the specification. If a component is to be prestressed whilst
still resting on the soffit form, provision shall be made to allow for elastic
D/22

Concrete Work

deformation and any variation in weight distribution. As far as practicable,


formwork joints shall coincide with construction joints.
8.1.2

Form Lining
The type and treatment of any lining (plywood, metal, plastic, Controlled
Permeability Formwork liner etc.) of the forms shall be appropriate to the
concrete finish required.
The Controlled Permeability Formwork (CPF) liner shall have the following
requirements:
i.
The requirement for a special finish shall be as for traditional formwork
finishes except that the formwork shall be covered by a CPF liner.

8.1.3

ii.

CPF liner shall be used on all surfaces as detailed on the Drawings.

iii.

The CPF liner shall be a Water Bylaws Scheme Approved Product for
use with potable water in accordance with BS 6920.

iv.

The CPF liner shall have the following properties:


a)
Compression of less than 10% under a pressure 200kPa.
b)
Maximum pore size of less than 0.030mm.
c)
Minimum water retention capacity of 0.35 litres per square
metre.
d)
Result in bleed water from the liner which is free from cement
and fine aggregate particles.

v.

The concrete cast against the CPF liner shall have an even uniformly
textured matt finish and shall be free of blowholes and other surface
blemishes. The use of the CPF liner shall meet the following
performance requirements which should be demonstrated by the supply
of test certificate:
a) The mean surface strength for the CPF cast face shall exceed that
for the control face by at least 70%.
b) The mean 10 minute ISAT result for the CPF cast face shall be not
more than 15% of that for the control face.
c) The mean depth of carbonation for the CPF cast face shall be not
more than 15% of that for the control face.
d) The mean concentration of chlorides at a depth of 11mm from the
CPF cast face shall be not more than 15% of that for the control
face.

vi.

The CPF liner shall be used once only. Release agents shall not be
used with the liner and any residual release agent remaining on forms
from previous use shall be removed.

vii.

To ensure conformity with the performance requirements, the CPF liner


is to be used in accordance with the manufacturers technical guidelines.

viii.

The CPF liner shall unless otherwise directed, be left in place on the
concrete after formwork removal for the curing period specified by the
S.O. It shall be kept wet and covered with plastic sheeting to promote
efficient curing.

Projecting Reinforcement, Fixing Devices


Where holes are needed in form to accommodate projecting reinforcement or
fixing devices, care shall be taken to prevent loss of grout when concreting or
damage when removing forms.

8.2

Surface Finishes for Concrete


8.2.1

Control of Colour
When specified in the Drawings, the Contractor shall obtain each constituent
material from a single consistent source. The aggregates shall be free of any
impurities that may cause staining. The mix proportions and the grading,
particularly of the fine aggregate, shall be maintained constant. The same type of
plywood or timber shall be used in formwork throughout similar exposed areas.

8.2.2

Formed Surfaces
Formed concrete surfaces shall have one of the following classes of finish.
Unless otherwise specified, all exposed concrete surfaces shall be of Class F12,
all unexposed surfaces shall be of Class F1. Other classes of finishes shall be
used only where shown in the Drawings:
(a)

Class F1
This finish shall be obtained by the use of properly designed forms of
closely joined sawn timber or other approved material. Small blemishes
caused by entrapped air or water may be expected but the surface shall
be free from voids and honeycombing.

(b)

Class F2
This finish shall be obtained by the use of properly designed forms of
closely jointed wrought boards, approved plywood or other approved
material. Only very minor surface blemishes shall occur, with no staining
or discolouration.

(c)

Class F3
This finish shall be obtained by the use of properly designed steel forms
or plastic coated plywood or wrought boards or other approved material.
The surface shall be improved by carefully removing all fins and other
projections, thoroughly washing down and then filling the most
noticeable surface blemishes with a cement and fine aggregate paste to
match the colour of the original concrete. Form release agents shall be
carefully chosen to ensure that the surface shall not be stained or
discoloured.
After the concrete has been properly cured, the surface shall be rubbed
down where necessary, to produce a smooth and even surface.

(d)

Class F4
The requirements for Class F4 are as for Class F3 except that internal

Unformed surfaces
(a)

Class U1
The concrete shall be uniformly levelled and screeded to produce a
plain, ridged or broom roughened surface. No further work shall be
applied to the surface unless it is used as the first stage for a Class U2
or Class U3 finish.

(b)

Class U2
After the concrete has hardened sufficiently, the concrete Class U1
surface shall be floated by hand or machine to produce a uniform
surface free from screed marks.

(c)

Class U3
When the moisture film has disappeared and the concrete has hardened
sufficiently to prevent laitance from being worked to the surface, a Class
U1 surface shall be steel-trowelled under firm pressure to produce a
dense, smooth uniform surface free from trowel marks.

(d)

Class U4
This finish is for surfaces that are to receive waterproofing systems.
The concrete shall be levelled and floated to produce a uniform surface
and immediately before the waterproofing operation this surface shall be
water jetted or grit blasted to provide a lightly textured finish.
The finished surface shall not deviate from the required profile by more
than 5mm over a 3m gauge length or have any abrupt irregularities of
more than 3mm.

8.2.4

Trial Panels for Exposed Form Finished Surfaces


In order to ensure that the specified formed finishes can be obtained by the
method of construction proposed and to provide a standard by which the finishes
in the Works can be assessed, trial panels shall be cast on Site. These panels
shall be subjected to the S.O.s approval before similar casting is permitted in the
Works.
The trial panels shall employ the materials, plant and concrete mix proposed for
the Works. They shall be at least a storey height and 1m wide. They shall be of
similar thickness and similarly reinforced as the elements they represent and
shall incorporate all features which contribute to the final appearance of the
Works.

8.3

Preparation of Forms Before Concreting


Before concreting, all forms shall be thoroughly cleaned out, free from sawdust shavings,
dust, mud or other debris.
The inside surfaces of forms shall, unless otherwise approved by the S.O., be coated with
an approved non-staining form oil or other approved material to prevent adhesion of the
concrete. Such release agents shall be applied strictly in accordance with the
manufacturers instructions and shall not come into contact with the reinforcement or
prestressing tendons and anchorages. For any exposed surface only one release agent
shall be used throughout the entire area.
All formwork shall be inspected by the S.O. after preparation and immediately prior to
depositing concrete and no concrete shall be deposited until approval of the formwork
has been obtained.

8.4

Removal of Forms
The Contractor shall inform the S.O. and obtain his approval before striking any
formwork, but such approval shall not relieve the Contractor of his responsibilities for the
safety of the work.
Formwork shall be removed without such shock or vibration as would damage the
concrete. A period of time shall elapse between the placing of the concrete and the
removal of the formwork for various parts of the structure so as to suit the requirements
for its curing.
The minimum periods between concreting and the removal of forms are given in Table
10. The periods stated in this table are based on the use of Ordinary Portland Cement.
They may be changed with the approval of the S.O., if other types of cement as described in
2.1, admixtures or additional material as described in 2.4 and 2.5 are used. The result of the
compressive strength obtained from the additional cubes taken as described in 4.9 may also
be used for early removal of forms provided always the Contractor provide proof of
calculation to the S.O for approval.
For prestressed in-situ components, temporary supports shall not be removed until the
components is stressed to the approval of the S.O.
Where it is intended that forms are to be reused, they shall be cleaned and made good to
the approval of the S.O.
Following the removal of forms, no further loads shall be imposed upon the concrete until
at least after the completion of the curing period or until such later time as in the opinion
of the S.O. the concrete shall have attained sufficient strength to safely withstand such
loads. Full design loads shall not be applied to any structure until all load bearing
concrete is at least 28 days old.
D/26

8.5

Inspection and Making Good


The surface of the concrete shall be inspected for defects and for conformity to the
surface finish specified and where appropriate, with approved sample finishes.
Subject to the strength and durability of the concrete being unimpaired, the making good
of surface defects may be permitted but the level of acceptance shall be appropriate to
the type and quality of the finish specified and ensure satisfactory permanence and
durability.
Any remedial treatment of surfaces shall be approved by the S.O. following inspection
immediately after removing the formwork and shall be carried out without delay.

9.0

Mass and Lean Concrete


Mass and lean concrete shall consist of cement, fine aggregate and coarse aggregate in the
nominal ratio by volume of 1:3:6 and 1:4:8 respectively. However where a denser and more
workable concrete can be produced by a variation in the ratio of the fine aggregate to that of
coarse aggregate, this ratio may be varied within the limits (1:1) and (1:3), provided that the
volumes of fine and coarse aggregate, each measured separately, shall nevertheless equal the
sum of the volumes of fine and coarse aggregate appropriate to the nominal mix. The concrete
shall be mixed as described for reinforced concrete.

10.0

Building Accuracy
After removal of formwork, the Contractor shall take measurements as directed by the S.O. to
check the deviation of the reinforced concrete works from specified dimensions shown in the
Drawings. All measurements shall be recorded and submitted to the S.O. Any deviation in
building accuracy shall comply with BS 5606.

Lift Pits
For lift pits below ground level, the concrete in the base slab and walls shall be of reinforced
concrete with minimum cement content and maximum free water: cement ratio in accordance with
the exposure C in table 6 and shall be constructed in operations which shall ensure water
tightness in the structure below the ground level.
All external or internal wall surfaces of lift pits shall be waterproofed with three (3) coats of
bitumen solution complying with BS 3416 or any other type of waterproofing material as approved
by the S.O. The concrete surface shall be thoroughly cleaned and dried before application of the
waterproofing material.

4.0

Floors
After initial set, the upper surface of cast-in-situ reinforced concrete floors shall be trowelled
smooth with a steel float to true level and even surface. No screeding of any kind shall be applied
to the floor slabs except where specified. Care shall be taken to ensure that the steel
reinforcement is not displaced or lowered during trowelling.
For areas, which are to receive rendering or other finishes, the fresh concrete shall be trowelled to
true level or as required using a long timber trowel. Before it hardens it shall be brushed with a
stiff broom in one direction to give a rough and tidy surface.
The reinforced concrete ground floor slab shall not be laid directly onto earth surfaces. A blinding
layer of 50mm minimum thick of lean concrete as specified in clause 9.0 shall be laid on well
prepared firm ground. Plastic sheeting or other suitable material with sufficient overlaps at joints,
shall be laid on the blinding layer before any reinforcement is placed in position.

If either of the latter methods is employed, sample members (usually the first
ones produced) shall be carefully checked against the setting-out.
In all instances bolt hole positions shall be accurately determined by reference to
the point intersection of the center lines of the member. Great care is necessary
if the first set members marked out is to be used subsequently as drilling
templates. Greater accuracy can usually be obtained by the use of special
marking or drilling templates located by a pin at the intersection of the center
lines.
Bolts holes shall be drilled at right angles to the surface of the joint. The contact
surfaces of the members should be grooved to the appropriate dimensions as
given in Part 6 of MS 544.
Drilling and grooving may be done in a single operation; alternatively, if the hole
is predrilled the pilot of the grooving tool shall fit in the bolt hole, thus centering
the groove about the hole.
Care shall be taken to ensure that all chips and shavings are removed, and rings

Coverage of Performance Warranty


We .................................. the paint Manufacturer hereby warrants that for a period of three (3)
years from the date of Practical Completion, the paint system shall not be affected by the following
defects:

Peeling
This condition is manifested when the paint film peels away or detaches from the
substrate

Cracking
This condition is manifested by any visible cracking on the paint film other than that
caused by plastering cracks and structural defects.

Fungus/Algae Growth
This condition is established when there is growth of micro organisms on the surface of
paint films which results in the marring of the appearance of the paint film through
discoloration.

Discoloration
This condition occurs when the coating loses its original color in patches and excessive
discoloration appears.

In the event of the occurrence of any defects covered under this warranty the Manufacturer shall
take rectification action at his own cost.
