material, their sorting out as specified and their depositing either in spoil banks or on canal
banks in layers or other locations as specified includes all leads and lifts.
The site of construction shall be cleared of all grass vegetation, fencing, bushes, and trees as
directed by Engineer-in-charge. The material obtained from such clearance shall be the
property of the Corporation and shall be stacked as directed by the Engineer-in-charge, so as
not to cause obstruction to the work.
1.2.1 All materials such as pegs, bamboo’s and strings and temples for marking out slopes,
and labour required for line out should be provided by the Contractor at his own cost. The
centreline of excavation shall be clearly marked by pegs or by stones at each chain or change
of direction or at shorter intervals on curves, in the beginning. The final line out shall be
done by fixing reference stone at suitable distances on either side of the centreline, beyond
the canal edges so that they are not disturbed the construction period. The position of these
stones shall be marked on the cross section.
1.2.3 No change in the sanctioned plan and designs is permissible without the written
permission of Engineer-in-charge.
1.2.4 Before starting the work, the Contractor shall have prepare & submit the signed field
books and plans showing the working longitudinal section and cross sections of the portions
of the alignment, that he has to tackle. If the Contractor fails to sign them within three days
of being called upon to do so, the levels and sections as recorded by Engineer-in-charge or
his Assistant shall be final and binding on the Contractor.
1.2.5 Contractor shall construct and maintained the quarry roads and temporary roads
required for conveying and transport of material at his cost.
1.2.6 For the points, which are not covered under these specifications, the instructions given
by the Engineer-in-charge shall be final and binding on the Contractor.
1.2.7 The material available from all excavation and remaining surplus after use on the
work from adjacent reaches, etc. can be used by the Contractor free of cost provided these
materials are used solely or the specific contract work and prior approval of the Engineer-
in-charge is taken.
Along the excavation and removal of excavated material and its disposal in a manner
herein after specified, the item of excavation shall also include.
I. Cleaning of site.
II. Setting out work, profiles etc. according to sanctioned plan, or as directed by the Engineer-
in-charge and setting up benchmarks and other reference marks.
III. Providing and subsequently removing shoring and strutting if and when necessary.
IV. Bailing and pumping out water including continuous pumping till completion of excavation.
V. Necessary protection including labour, material and equipment’s to ensure safety and
protection against risk or accident.
VI. Provide necessary facilities for inspection and measurements of work at any time to the
concerned Corporation officials.
VII. Compensation for injury to life and damage to property if any, during work, O&M shall be
the responsibility of contractor.
1.3.2 Approach channel shall be excavated as shown on the approved drawings and as

reaches and smoothly curved at bends.
1.3.3 Suitable arrangements for drainage shall be provided to take surface water clear of
excavation during the progress of work.
Excavation in rock shall be such that all sharp points of rock are chipped off so as not to
extend into the canal profiles. Blasting in a manner which is likely to produce over breakage
which in the opinion of Engineer-in-charge is excessive or loosening of materials on bottom
and side slopes against which lining is to be placed.
1.3.6 The material excavated in a chain of 20/30 meters shall be stacked on either side of the
chain as specified on the drawing or as directed by the Engineer-in-charge.
1.3.7 The excavation shall be carried out according to the design with accurately graded bed fall and
side properly sloped as shown in the drawing and as directed by the Engineer-in-charge. The cross
section adopted in cutting is likely to change in side slopes according to the depth of different strata
during actual excavation. The Contractor therefore, should get clear instructions from Engineer-in-
charge, before commencing any cutting work.
No claims for any variations in quantity of excavation resulting from the deviation from the
instructions of the Engineer-in-charge would be accepted. To account for this, the central box
cutting with the canal bed width as its width have to be taken to canal bed level first, before the
side slopes are determined and attacked (except for deep cutting of more than 6 m. depth) In
portions where deep cutting of more than 6 m. is to be done, the mode of excavation to be
followed must be got approved from the Engineer-in-charge, before starting the work in such not
The excavation should initially be carried out in steps. The steps should have such width the
depth that after they are cut, the required final side slopes is attained. Cutting of steps should be
done after bed level is reached and after monsoon. If cutting is in soft strata, cutting of steps
should be done just prior to preparing the side slopes for laying lining.
Before any work of excavation is taken up, all loose rock, semi-detached rock in/or close to the
areas to be excavated, that is liable to fail or otherwise endanger the workmen on the project
shall be stripped. The methods employed shall be such as shall not shatter or render unstable and
therefore unsafe any rock that was originally sound or safe. Any material not requiring removal
as contemplated herein, but which may later become loosened or unstable shall be promptly and
satisfactorily removed. The cost of such clearing shall be deemed to have included in the unit
rates accepted under the different items under excavation.
1.4 CLASSIFICATION

in mass and isolated boulders over 0.1 cubic meter each which requires blasting or wedging
and breaking for easy removal, merely the use of explosive in excavation shall not be
considered a reason for classification in hard strata unless regular blasting is clearly
necessary in the opinion of the Engineer-in-charge. The hardness of strata or material to be
excavated, presence of different type of Geological constituents requiring increased drilling
efforts, consumption of explosives, labour and use of machinery shall not be considered as
reason for claim/increase in contract rates.
The minimum excavation line is the line within which no un-excavated portion of any kind
shall be allowed to remain i.e. a neat profile line for unlined and underside of the lining
proposed if any for works of canal and disnet.

Grading of the aggregates (fine and coarse) brought on the site shall be done by the Contractor
and shall be got approved from the Engineer-in-charge.
The grading of sand and coarse aggregate is liable to be modified beyond the limits specified
above to suit local condition order to obtain required strength and workability. The grading as
well as relative proportion of sand and coarse aggregate are liable to be changed at the
discretion of the Engineer-in-charge. In order to produce dense concrete of required strength,
which can be worked readily into position without segregation in a given ratio of cement and
total aggregate (sum of Volume of sand and coarse aggregate). No compensation is payable for
adjustment in relative proportion and grading of aggregates
Cement variation in concrete mix shall not constitute and extra item.
In case the ratio of cement to total aggregate is modified by changing the cement content
under specific orders of the Engineer-in-charge.
Fine and coarse aggregate shall be measured by dry volumes in suitable wooden boxes.
Overall cement consumption for individual items during working season shall be within
70. or (-) 2%. In case the cement consumption is less that 2% than that specified, the work
shall be paid at reduced rates.
The ratio of the volumes of the fine and coarse aggregate may be varied within limits of
1:1:5 to 1:2.5 as directed by the Engineer-in-charge to suit the maximum size of coarse
aggregates, the grading density, workability and strength without extra cost.
The quantity of water shall be just sufficient, but not more than sufficient to produce a dense
concrete of required workability for its purpose. An accurate control shall be kept on the
quantity of mixing water. An allowance shall be made for surface moisture present in the

proportions of concrete are given in para 4.8.0. However, the exact proportions in which the
materials are to be used for different parts of the work shall be determined by carrying out mix
design to obtain the specified strength of the concrete. The design of mix, shall be submitted by
the Contractor and got approved from the Engineer-in-charge at least one month before the
commencement of the work. The design may be changed at any given time at the discretion of
the Engineer-in-charge during progress of work. The samples of aggregates and cement and the
resulting concrete as well as the concrete mix design shall be tested as per relevant I.S. by the
Engineer-in-charge. So as to secure the required workability, density, impermeability, strength
and economy.
All the materials going in each batch of concrete shall be weighed before use. The amount of
each individual size of aggregate entering each batch of concrete shall be determined by direct
weighing. The amount of water shall be added after weighing or volumetric measure. All
measuring equipment shall be calibrated correctly and certificate from the competent authority
shall be obtained as and when demanded by the Engineer-in-charge. All measuring equipment
shall be so designed and operated that the combined inaccuracies in feeding and measuring the
materials shall not exceed.
One and half percent for water or cement and two and half percent for each size of aggregate.
Any batch of concrete not satisfying this requirement is liable to be rejected. No cement older
than 60 days from the date of dispatch from the manufacturer shall be used on the work. The
cement to be used shall be in the older of its receipt so that no stock remains unused for
duration longer than 60 days. Cement older than 60 days shall be removed from site as per the
directives of Engineer-in-charge.
The ingredients of concrete shall be properly mixed in mixers, designed so as to positively ensure
uniform distribution of all the component materials through the mass, at the end of the mixing
period. The mixing of each batch shall continue about one and half to two minutes depending upon
the revolutions per minute of the mixer and experience after all materials except for the full amount
of water are added in the mixer. The minimum mixing period specified above assumes proper
control of the rotation of the mixer and of introduction of the materials, including water. The mixing
time shall be increased at the discretion of the Engineer-in-charge when the charging operation fails
to produce concrete of the required uniformity of composition and consistency within the batch and
from the batch of batch. Contractor shall not be entitled for any extra payment for such increase in
mixing time. Excessive mixing requiring the addition of the water to preserve the required concrete
consistency shall be avoided. If the mixing and charging operations are such that the required
uniformity of the concrete is obtained in shorter mixing time than the minimum specified without
sacrificed of needed workability, the mixing time may be shortened under order of the Engineer-
in-charge. Mixing shall be done by mechanical means only.
Materials corresponding to one bag mix or half bag mix (depending upon the mixer capacity)
shall be placed in the skip in sequence of metal cement and sand. The skip shall then be
emptied into the drum and specified quantity of water added to material in drum. The
following general principles shall be followed in operation of mixing.
b) A portion of water (between 5 to 10 percent) shall precede and an equal quantity shall
follow introduction of the other materials. The remainder of the water shall be added
uniformly and simultaneously with the other materials.
c) Care shall be taken that mixing of concrete in the mixer shall be uniform.
The crushing strength in Newton per square millimetre on works cubes, at 28 days for each
nominal mix shall be as under.
Preliminary tests of cubes shall be carried out in the laboratory well in advance of
commencement of work. These tests should indicate in adequate margin over the stipulated
strength specified in Para 4.10.1
Tests for crushing strength shall be made on standard cubes as per the relevant Indian
Standard Specifications. For works tests, samples shall be taken on the job as when directed.
For works tests, samples shall be taken once for every 30 cubic meter of each type of
concrete laid and at least three times a day, if output is more than 75 cubic meter. The
samples for work test is defined as a set of three cubes. The materials required for the
samples (concrete, cement, sand and coarse aggregate) shall be supplied by the Contractor
free of cost and collection of samples, casting and testing shall be carried out at the
Contractor’s cost.
Eighty five percent at the test cube have crushing strength equal to or greater than the
stipulated strength of concrete. 15% of the samples shall have crushing strength more than 90%
of the stipulated crushing strength. Quantity of concrete represented by the sample having
crushing strength below 90% and 80 % of stipulated crushing strength shall be paid at reduced
rates.
In order to test the consistency of the mixed concrete. Slump test shall have to be made by
the Contractor when and where required by the Engineer-in-charge, as per Indian Standard
Specification. The allowable slump shall be decided by the Engineer-in-charge, depending upon
the location of the concrete.
4.11.6 In the case of reinforced concrete work, the workability shall be such as the
concrete shall surround and properly grip all the reinforcement. Water cement ratio shall be
such as shall give concrete just sufficiently wet to be placed and compacted without difficulty.
4.11.7 Concrete shall have a consistency such that it shall be workable in the
CONTRACTOR NO. OF CORRECTION SDE EE 307
DETAILED SPECIFICATION JIGAON PDN FOR LIS NO. 13,14 & 15
required position and in the case of R.C.C. flow around reinforcing steel also.
4.11.8 For vibrated concrete slump shall range between 2.5 cm to 5 cm. The slump
shall be the less permitted by workability. The slump shall be determined as detailed in
Appendix ‘G’ of I.S. 456-1978/2000 and maintained throughout the concreting operation of
member.
4.12.0 FORMS
As far as possible Contractor shall use plastic formworks with prior approval of
Engineer-In-Charge.
4.12.1 GENERAL
Forms to confine the concrete and shape it to the required line shall be used wherever
necessary. The form shall have sufficient strength and rigidity to hold concrete and to withstand
the pressure of ramming and vibration without excessive deflection from the prescribed lines the
more so when the concrete is in vibration. The Contractor shall have to get the design and
drawing of the centring approved from the Engineer-in-charge before erection. Formwork shall
be of any of the following types.
b) Steel shuttering.
For works costing more than Rs. One Crore, only steel/plastic formwork shuttering to be
used. However as per need of site, wooden shuttering would be allowed only if it is free from
wrapping and is fabricated true to line and shape. The decision of the Engineer-in-charge as
to the suitability of wooden shuttering as per (a) above to be used by the Contractor shall be
final and binding on the Contractor. The surface of all forms in contact with concrete shall be
clean, rigid, watertight and smooth. Suitable devices shall be used to hold corners, adjacent
ends and edges of panel of other forms together in accurate alignment.
4.12.2 DESIGN
The detailed designs of the form work and false work shall be prepared by the Contractor
and got approved by the Engineer-in-charge well in time. Such an approval however, shall
not relieve the Contractor of his responsibility for the adequacy and strength of the formwork
and false work.
4.12.3 MATERIAL
The forms and false work shall be made of wood, metal or plastic formwork system. In metal
forms, steel sheets of the designed gauge strengthened with framing of angle or other
sections shall be used.
4.12.4 FABRICATION
The joints should be made mortar tight. This may be done either by providing tongued and
grooved or riveted joint or by caulking or nailing to the construction operation. The nuts and bolt
CONTRACTOR NO. OF CORRECTION SDE EE 308
DETAILED SPECIFICATION JIGAON PDN FOR LIS NO. 13,14 & 15
heads inside the form works adjoining the concrete should be countersunk. The formwork should
allow finished concrete to have a smooth surface and conform to the shapes, lines and
dimensions shown on the plans and true to line and grade. The effect of vibration shall be taken
into account in the design and fabrication of form and false work.
Before placing concrete the inner side of the forms which come in contact with the concrete
shall be coated with mineral oil or any other suitable materials approved the Engineer-in-
charge which shall prevent adhesion of concrete to the forms but shall not discolour the
concrete. When oil is used, it shall be applied before reinforcement is placed. Care shall be
taken to see that reinforcement does not come in contact with coating. All chipping saw dust
and other rubbish shall be removed from the interior of the forms before concreting.
False work shall be built on foundation or base of sufficient strength to carry the loads
without settlement. False work cannot be found on solid footing must be supported by piles
or other similar devices. False work shall be designed to carry the full loads including that
due to construction operation coming upon it.
The false work and form work shall be erected with an eye for absolute safety of the form
work and concrete work before and after pouring concrete. Watch should be kept to see that
the behaviour of centring and form is satisfactory during concreting. Erection should also be
such that it would allow removal of forms in proper sequence without damaging either the
concrete or the forms to be removed later.
If there is failure of false work and/or form the Contractor shall be responsible for all
consequent damages to work, injury to life and damage to property and make good the
damage at his cost.
i. Before placing concrete the surface of forms shall be oiled with a suitable non-
staining oil such as raw linseed oil so as to prevent sticking of concrete and facilitate the
removal of form.
ii. The oil shall cover the forms fully and evenly without excess over drip. Care shall be
taken to prevent oil from getting on the surface of the construction joints and on
reinforcement bars. Special care shall be taken to oil thoroughly the form strips for narrow
grooves so as to prevent swelling of the forms and the consequent damage to concrete prior
to or during removal of forms. Immediately before concrete is place, care shall be taken to
see that all forms are proper alignment and the supports and fixtures are thoroughly secured
and tightened.
iii. Where forms for continuous surface are placed in successive units, the forms shall fit
tightly over the completed surface so as to prevent leakage of mortar from the concrete
and to maintain accurate alignment of the surface.
iv. Forms shall be left in place until their removal is authorised and shall then be
removed with care so as to avoid injury to the concrete.
v. Removal of forms shall never be started until the concrete is thoroughly set and hardened
adequately to carry its own weight. Beside the live load which is likely to come on the work
during constructions. The length of time for which the forms shall remain in place shall be
decided by the Engineer-in-charge, with reference to weather conditions, shape position of the
structure or structural member and the nature and amount of dead and live loads.
In no case shall forms be removed until there is assurance that removal can be accomplished
without damaging the concrete surface. No loads shall be allowed to damage the concrete
surface. Heavy load shall not be permitted until the concrete has reached its designed
strength. The forms shall be removed with great caution and without harming the structure of
throwing heavy forms upon the floor.
Forms required to be used more than once shall be maintained in serviceable conditions and
shall be thoroughly cleaned and smoothened before reuse. Where metal sheets are used for
lining forms, the sheets shall be placed and maintained on the forms with minimum amount
of wrinkles, humps or other imperfections. All forms shall be checked for shape and strength
before reuse.
4.12.9 INSPECTION
The forms and false work shall be inspected, checked and approved by the Engineer-in-
charge before concreting commences. But this shall not relieve the Contractor of his
responsibility for strength, adequacy and safety of the form and false work.
Rock surface upon or against which concrete is to be placed, shall be prepared as specified in
section of excavation for foundation.
ii. If the old layer of masonry which has been paid for is required to be removed as
mentioned in para 9.2.2 it shall be back filled with concrete along with upper concrete layer
at no extra cost.
Before laying of concrete the surface of the concrete in day to day work shall be cleaned by a
wire brush and jets of water, so that the surface is thoroughly cleaned and wetted but pools of
water are avoided. If the old concrete surface has remained exposed for than two weeks, if
shall be prepared not roughened by chipping to a depth of two centimetres and the surface
coated or covered with a layer of cement mortar (1:2) for a depth of 5 to 8 cm. The unit rate
of concrete shall cover the cost of such preparation and also the cost of cement mortar. The
concrete removed for roughening shall not be paid for.
i.The cleaned rock, masonry or concrete surface shall be applied with cement slurry and
then cement mortar coat as .
ii. The first few batches of concrete may, if as required contain half the regular size of
coarse aggregate without any extra claims.
iii. The cost of such preparation work stands included in the unit rate of cement concrete.
All concrete shall be placed directly in its final position within thirty minutes of mixing. Any
concrete, which has become so stiff that proper placing cannot be assured without re-
tempering shall be wasted and shall not be paid for. All surface of forms and metal work
including reinforcement that have become encrusted with dried mortar of grout concrete
previously placed shall be cleaned of all such mortar or grout before surrounding or adjacent
concrete is placed.
Before starting placing of concrete, it should be made certain that the transporting and placing
equipment is clean in proper order and that equipment along with the operating staff is arranged
to deliver the concrete in the final positions without undue delays and objectionable segregation.
The methods and the equipment used for transport and placing of concrete shall be such as shall
permit the delivery of concrete of the required consistency into the work without objectionable
segregation porosity or excessive loss of workability. Excessive segregation from whatever cause
shall be prevented in handling and placing operation by avoiding or controlling lateral movement
of the concrete as in dumping at an angle depositing continuously at one point and allowing the
concrete to flow. Concrete shall not be dropped from excessive heights and free fall should be
kept to a minimum. Concrete shall be deposited in continuous horizontal layers in a thickness of
approximately 30 cm in normal work to 45 cm for mass concrete excess that nothing herein shall
be construed to permit placement of the additional horizontal layers of mass concrete before the
entire area to be concreted is covered by previous layers. On flat, horizontal surfaces, where
congestion of steel near the forms makes placing of concrete difficult, a mortar of the same
cement, sand ratio as used in the concrete shall be first deposited to cover the forms and shall
stand included in the unit rate of concrete before the entire area to be concreted is covered by
previous layers is covered by previous layers.
When concreting is required to be done or continued while it shall be seen that the concrete is not
damaged due to rain while it is being transported and placed. After placing the green concrete it shall
be adequately covered for a period of 24 hours when it shall be capable for being cured by splash of
water. The surface of fresh concrete should be maintained on a slope sufficient for result in the self-
drainage of the rainwater. The work shall however be discontinued when the rain is so severe that
water collects in pools or washes the surface or the fresh concrete and it is not possible to provide
adequate shelter.
4.14.0 COMPACTION
4.14.1 GENERAL
In all concrete works, required nos. of vibrators, with standby in working condition shall be kept
ready at site as per the instructions of the Engineer-in-charge.
4.14.2 All concrete shall be vibrated by mechanical vibrator of approved type so as to ensure dense
concrete. Hand tamping and rolling shall not be used for compaction of concrete except in special
circumstances with the express permission of the Engineer-in-charge. When immersion type
vibrators are used they shall be used vertically at about 45 cm apart. The vibrators shall be inserted to
the full depth of the newly laid concrete layer. The concrete shall be thoroughly compacted during
depositing to get a dense concrete and thoroughly worked in to the edges and corners of the form
work and also along it faces and around reinforcement in the case of R.C.C. by means of suitable
tools such as trowel and rods to gets a good finish without honeycombing. The vibrator shall
however, not re-vibrate concrete, which has commenced its final set. Special care shall be taken to
see the vibrator touching the reinforcement of embedded part does not disturb the concrete
below, which has commenced its final set. The concrete shall not be vibrated excessively so as to
cause segregation.
4.14.3 Each layers of concrete, for surfaces which is required to be smooth and for all surfaces
which shall be permanently exposed to the weather, and for all surfaces next to embedded metal
work shall be worked and vibrated by mechanical vibrator of approved type only so as to obtain a
concrete of maximum density and imperviousness and to assure close contact of the concrete
with forms, reinforcement bars and other embedded parts. If the methods of transporting and
placement have been conductive to air entertainment segregation of stiffening, the work of
compaction should receive special attention.
4.14.4 For concrete surface exposed to flow of water special precaution shall be taken to
minimise and to prevent surface pitting and protrusions without resorting to over
manipulation of the concrete mix to the forms. No plastering for getting a smooth finish shall
be permitted at these locations. Any protrusion shall be ground smooth.
All concrete shall be protected against injury until final acceptance. Exposed finished surface
of concrete shall be protected from the direct rays of sum of at least 72 hours after
CONTRACTOR NO. OF CORRECTION SDE EE 312
DETAILED SPECIFICATION JIGAON PDN FOR LIS NO. 13,14 & 15
placement. Concrete shall be kept continuously moist for not less than 21 days. Construction
joins shall be cured in the same ways as other concrete and shall be kept moist for at least 72
hours prior to the placing of additional concrete upon the joints. Approximately horizontal
surfaces shall be cured by sprinkling, pounding or by covering, or by damp sand or may be
cured by the use of wet quills or mats. Vertical surfaces shall be cured by covering with wet
jute bags. If damp sand or quilting is used for curing, it shall be removed completed later.
Should the concrete that has become dry or powdery through neglect of curing the
Contractor shall rectify the work as his own extra cost. If curing arrangements by the
Contractor are not satisfactory the Engineer-in-charge may in his discretion engage labour
and provided material and equipment for curing and recover expenditure thus involved from
Contractor.
4.16.0 FINISHING
4.16.1 GENERAL
Finishing of formed and unformed surface shall be performed only by skilled workmen. All
exposed concrete surfaces shall be cleaned of all encrustations of cement mortar or grout.
Unsightly stains shall be removed.
Surface of concrete finished against form shall be smooth, free from projections and filled
thoroughly with mortar. Immediately upon removal of forms, all unsightly ridges of fines
shall be removed and any local bulging on exposed surfaces shall be remedied by tooling and
rubbing. All holes left by the removal of fasteners shall, after being reamed with toothed
reamer, neatly filled with dry patching mortar. All porous and fractured concrete and surface
concrete to which additions are required to bring it to the prescribed lines shall be sharp
edged and keyed shall be filled to required line with fresh concrete used for filling the
chipped openings and these shall not be less than 8 cm in depth and the concrete filling shall
be reinforced and doweled to the surface of the opening. Honey combed surfaces and
surfaces, which give a hollow sound, shall be rectified by guniting at the Contractors cost.
Dry patching mortar shall consist of one part of cement to 2 parts of sand by volume and just
enough water so that the mortar so used, shall stick together on being moulded into a ball by
a slight pressure of hands and shall not exclude water when pressed but shall leave the hands
damp. The mortar shall be placed in layers of not more than 2 cm thickness. After being
compacted each layer shall be roughened by being scratched to provide an effective bond
with the succeeding layers. The last of finishing layer shall be smooth to form a surface
continuous with the surrounding concrete. All patches shall be bonded thoroughly to the
surface of the chipped opening and shall be sound and free from shrinkage cracks.
Except as otherwise specified or directed all permanently exposed concrete surface and other
waterway surface requiring durability under water (except the outlet) shall be finished in the
following manner immediately upon the removal of the form the surface shall be wetted and
all surface pits and air bubbles filled by rubbing mortar composed of cement and fine sand in
proportion (1:2) in to the pits with burlap so at to secure a uniformly dense and smooth face.
The rubbing shall be performed in such a manner as to leave the surface free from mortar not
used for filling the pits. Should the filling operation be unduly delayed and the surfaces of
the pits become coated with dirt or other contaminating materials, they shall be thoroughly
cleaned and washed and shall be maintained in a moist condition, until the mortar filling is
placed. Such cleanings shall be done by means of air and water jets and chipping or brushing

be just sufficient to produce the desired finished. Screeding which gives the surface its
approximate shape by striking of surplus concrete immediately after compaction shall be
accomplished, by moving a straight edge or template with a sawing motion across wood or
metal strips that have been established as guides. Where the surface is curved special screed
should be brought true to form and grade by working it with a wooden float. If a coarse
textured finish is desired or if the surface is to be steel trawled a section or final floating
should be performed after some stiffening has occurred and the surface moisture film or
shine has disappeared. Where smooth dense finish is desired floating shall be followed by
steel trawling sometime after moisture film or shine has disappeared from the floated surface
and where the concrete has hardened sufficiently to prevent fine material and water from
being worked out the surface. Excessive trawling particularly at early time shall be avoided.

part-2) which shall be well rammed to form a fair and clean bed for pipe.
(3) Back filling shall be done with the excavated material/ borrow earth after ensuring that it is free of cinders,
ashes, slag, refuse, lumpy/ frozen material, rocks etc. to the satisfaction of the Project Manager. The back fill
from pipe invert up to 300mm above pipe crown shall be done with material passable through 20mm aperture
sieve (as per IS- 2405 part-2 1980). Total mass of loam and clay shall not be more than 10%. Back fill above
this zone up to trench top shall be with similar material but may contain stones with 200mm as their maximum
dimension.
(4) Back filling up to 300mm above pipe crown shall be done by hand without moving or injuring the pipe.
Above this zone up to trench top back fill may be by hand/ approved mechanical method.
(5) Any extra/ additional back-filling resulting from unintended rock blasting even while carrying out controlled
blasting shall be done by the Contractor without any extra cost to the Employer.
(B) SANDY/ SILTY SOIL
(1) Trench shall be excavated to the exact gradient required by the pipe invert so that no bedding is
required. The trench bottom shall be made free of refuse and stones etc. so as to provide a smooth, uniform and
continuous bearing surface
(2) Back filling shall be done with the excavated material after ensuring that it is free of cinders, ashes,
slag, refuse, lumpy/ frozen material, rocks etc. to the satisfaction of the Project Manager.
(3) Back filling upto 300mm above pipe crown shall be done by hand without moving or injuring the pipe.
Above this zone upto trench top back fill may be by hand/ approved mechanical method.
(C) EXPANSIVE/ POOR SUPPORT SOIL
(1) Laying of pipes in such soil shall be avoided as far as possible. One possible method is to increase
trench depth in case the expansive soil occurs at the surface. The method can then be one of the above (a or b)
depending on soil encountered below the layer of expansive soil. The expansive soil shall not however, be used
for back filling the trench bottom to 300mm above the pipe crown. This shall however, be studied techno-
economically (i.e., the aspect of increasing the trench depth to encounter non-expansive soil and follow a or b
above for bed preparation and back filling).
(2) Where expansive soil occurs at a great depth the trench & bed shall be prepared as at a (1) & (2) above.
(3) Back filling around pipes up to 300mm above top of pipe crown shall then be done with sand/ gravel
conforming to clause 8.2.1/ 8.2.2 of IS-3114 or with borrow earth. However, expansion soils having medium
degree of expansion or having marginal degree of severity, as per IS:1498, may be used for backfilling around
pipes with approval of Engineer.
(4) In case of marshy/ water logged soil, the pipes shall be laid on underground concrete pedestal (M25)
installed at a spacing to ensure that the pipe is adequately supported. Prior to construction, design of the pedestal
shall be got approved from Engineer-in-Charge.
02.02.00
During backfilling, it shall be made certain that the granular material flows completely under the pipe to provide
full support. Proper backfilling shall be done in 150mm to 300 mm lifts, depending on backfill material and
compaction method. Between each lift, the proper compaction shall be attained to ensure that the pipe will have
adequate side support.
02.03.00
Backfilling shall not be done until the pipe and appurtenances have the proper fit and the pipe is following the
trench profile at the required depth. Backfilling of trench in water courses shall be carried out as per the relevant
specifications.
02.04.00
Backfilling shall be carried out immediately after the pipeline has been laid in the trench, inspected and
approved by the Engineer, so as to provide a nature anchorage for the pipeline, thus avoiding long exposure of
coating to high temperature, damaging actions of adverse weather conditions, sliding down of trench sides and
pipe movement in the trench. In generals the trench shall be dry during backfilling. The surplus material shall be
neatly crowned directly over the trench and the adjacent excavated areas on both sides of the trench to such a
height which will, in the opinion of the Engineer, provide adequately for future settlement of the trench backfill
during the maintenance period and thereafter. Surplus material, left from this operation shall be disposed of to
the satisfaction of Engineer-in-Charge beyond the Work Area to a place suitably identified by the contractor
himself at no extra cost to the Owner.
02.05.00
At the end of each day’s work, backfilling shall not be more than 500 meters behind the head end of lowered-in
pipe, which has been padded and approved for backfill. The backfill shall be maintained against washouts etc.,
until the completion and final acceptance of the work by engineer.
02.06.00
When backfilling the trenches, the sloping terrains or steep areas, where in the opinion of the Engineer the
backfill may be washed out of the trench, sheet piling or other effective water breakers across the trench shall be
provided. This is to divert the flow of water away from the trench into normal drainage followed before laying
of the pipe line. In no case, the water is to be drained via the trench or via channels other than those followed
before the line was laid.
02.07.00
Contractor shall leave the pipe uncovered at certain locations to allow the engineer to survey the center line of
the pipe and the level of the pipeline in the backfilled trench.
02.08.00
Temporary markers shall be installed during backfilling to locate the pipeline axis. These markers shall then the
replaced with permanent pipeline markers.
02.09.00 ANCHOR BLOCKS/ ENCASEMENT
RCC thrust blocks should be provided at bends and at places of reduction in cross section to take care of thrust
forces as per approved designs/ drawings. Thrust blocks are to be installed at all locations where movement of
pipe is envisaged.
If higher water table is encountered, uplift to shall be checked for pipe empty condition and if there is any uplift,
pipe shall be encased with reinforced cement concrete (M25) of minimum 250 mm thick around the pipe.

13.14 HANDLING, TRANSPORTATION STORAGE AND LOWERING OF PIPES
• During handling, transportation, storage and lowering, all sections shall be handled by such means and
in such a manner that no distortion or damage is done to the section or to the pipes as a whole.
• The following procedures should be followed so as to eliminate potential damage to pipes and fittings
and to maintain maximum safety during unloading, lifting and lowering.
• Pipes must not be stored or transported where they are exposed to heatsources likely to exceed 60oC.
• Pipes shall be stored such that they are not in contact with direct sunlight, lubricating or hydraulic oils,
petrol, solvents and other aggressive materials.
• Scores or scratches to a depth of greater than 10% or more of wall thickness are not permissible; any
pipes having such defects should be strictly rejected.
• PE pipes should not be subjected to rough handling during loading and unloading operations. Rollers
shall be used to move, drag the pipes across any surface.
• Only polyester webbing slings should be used to lift heavy PE (>315mm) pipes by crane. Under no
circumstances, chains, wire ropes and hooks are used on PE pipes.
• Pipes shall not be dropped to avoid impact or bump. If any time during handling or during installation,
any damage, such as gouge, crack or fracture occurs, the pipe shall be repaired if so permitted by the competent
authority before installation.
• During coiling care should be taken to maintain the coil diameter at or above the specified minimum to
prevent kinks. Coiling shall be done when the pipe attains the ambient temperature from the extruder. In
uncoiling or recoiling care should
• Be taken that sharp objects do not scour the pipe.
• When releasing coils, it must be remembered that the coil is under tension and must be released in a
controlled manner. The end of the coil should be retained at all times, then the straps released steadily, one at a
time. If the coil has bands at different layers of the coil, then they should be released sequentially starting from
the outer layers. The amount of the energy locked up in the coil shall depend on the size of the pipe, the SDR of
the pipe, and the size of the coil.
• Straight lengths should be stored on horizontal racks giving continuous support to prevent the pipe
taking on a permanent set
• Bare coils shall be wrapped with hessian cloth for long distance (> 300Kms) Transportation. The truck
used for transportation of the PE pipes shall be exclusively used of PE pipes only with no other material loaded
– especially no metallic, glass and wooden items. The truck shall not have sharp edges that can damage the Pipe.
• Pipes manufactured at factory are to be carried to the site of work directly or stacked suitably and
neatly along the alignment/road side/elsewhere near by the work site or as directed by the Engineer-in-Charge.
• Damages during transit, handling, storage shall be to the Contractors account and replacement for such
pipes has to be made by the Contractor without any extra cost as directed by the Engineer-in-Charge.
13.15 LOWERING, LAYING OF PIPES
o Each pipe shall be thoroughly checked for any damages before laying and only the pipes which are
approved by the Engineer-in-Charge shall be laid.
o While installing the pipes in trenches, the bed of the trench should be level and free from sharp edged
stones. In most cases, the bedding is not required, as long as the sharp and protruding stones are removed, by
sieving the dug earth, before using the same a backfill material. While laying in rocky areas suitable bed of sand
or gravel should be provided. The fill to about 10 to 15 cm above the pipe should be fine sand or screened
excavated material. Where hard rock is met with, bed concrete M15, 15 cm or 20cm thick sand bed as approved
by the Engineer-in-Charge may be provided
o As PE pipes are flexible, long lengths of fusion-jointed pipes having joints made above ground can be
rolled or snaked into narrow trenches. Such trenches can be excavated by narrow buckets.
o During the pipe laying of continuous fusion jointed systems, due care and allowance should be made
for the movements likely to occur due to the thermal expansion/contraction of the material. This effect is most
pronounced at end connections to fixed positions (such as valves etc.) and at branch connections. Care should be
taken in fixing by finishing the connections at a time the length of the pipe is minimal (lower temperature times
of the day.)
o For summer time installations with two fixed connection points, a slightly longer length of PE pipe
may be required to compensate for contraction of the pipe in the cooler trench bottom.
o The final tie-in connections should be deferred until the thermal stability of the pipeline is achieved.
o The flexibility of polyethylene pipes allows the pipe to be cold bend. The fusion jointed PE pipe is also
flexible as the plain Pipe. Thus the total system enables directional changes within the trench without recourse
to the provision of special bends or anchor blocks. However, the pipe should not be cold bend to a radius less
than 25 times the OD of the pipe.
o The Installation of flanged fittings such as connections to sluice/air/gate valves and hydrant tees etc.,
requires the use of stub ends (collars/flange adaptors complete with backing rings and gaskets. Care should be
taken when tightening these flanges to provide even and balance torque.
o Provision should be made at all heavy fittings installation points for supports (such as anchoring of the
flange in the soil) for the flange joint to avoid the transfer of valve wheel turning torque on to the PE flange
joint.
o PE pipe is lighter than water. Hence care should be taken for normal installations where there could
be a possibility of flooding of the trench
o thus the trench shall be kept free of water till the jointing has been properly done
o When flooded, some soils may lose cohesiveness, which may allow the PE pipe to float out of the
ground. Several design checks are necessary to see if groundwater flotation may be a concern. Obviously, if the
pipeline typically runs full or nearly full of liquid, or if groundwater is always below the pipe, flotation may not
be a significant concern.
o However, weights by way of concrete blocks (anchors) are to be provided so that the PE pipe does not
float when suddenly the trench is flooded and the soil surrounding the pipe is washed away. Thus site conditions
study is necessary to ensure the avoidance of flotation.
o Pipe embedment backfill shall be stone-free excavated material placed and
o compacted to the 95% maximum dry density.
13.16 JOINTING OF PIPES
The pipe shall have heat butt-fusion jointing system that shall provide for fluid tightness for the intended service
conditions.

welded on the pipe. Flange shall be of slip on flange type as described below.
13.24 SLIP-ON FLANGES
Slip-on flanges shall be metallic flanges covered by epoxy coating or plastic powder coating. Slip-on-flanges
shall be conforming to standard mating relevant flange of valves, pipes etc. Nominal pressure rating of flanges
shall be PN10.
13.25 WELDING PROCEDURE (NOT APPLICABLE UP TO 4.35)
Jointing between HDPE pipes and specials shall be done as per the latest IS: 7634 part II. Method of jointing
between the pipes to pipes and pipes to specials shall be with Electro-fusion welding using automatic or semi-
automatic, hydraulically operated, superior quality Electro-fusion machines which shall ensure good quality
fusion welding of HDPE pipes.
13.26 HYDRAULIC TESTING
shall be given different hydraulic tests for ensuring quality of manufacture as per Standard Specification.
13.27 SITE FABRICATION OF PE FITTINGS
Two or more PE specials coming at one place (like PE Tee, Reducer, Flanged end etc.,) shall be jointed at
contractor’s workshop and transported to the site of works for final installation with proposed PE pipelines. In
no case, jointing of three or more welds in one place, at site shall be allowed.
13.28 RAINING
The Contractor shall provide on-site training on PE pipe laying, jointing, testing and maintenance etc., to the
personnel authorized by Corporation.

SECTION- VIII
(PDN)
For the sub-components of pipe distribution network (PDN) works, contractor has to prepare and
submit the specification based on relevant IS code, guidelines of the State government/manufacturer along
with the details design and drawings. The specifications will be vetted and approved along with design and
drawings. The contractor has to execute the work on the basis of approved specifications. The specifications
shall be for following major items but not limited to these items.
2. SCOPE:
The scope of this manual is to provide the basic guidelines for planning and design of gravity
pipe distribution network. It will include survey, investigations, data required and steps for the
alignments of pipe network. The basic assumption and consideration in design will also be incorporated
with an illustrative design example to facilitate the uniform code of practices in designing gravity pipe
distribution network.
Broad Conceptual layout (BCL) Report of PDN for LIS should be prepared and getting approval
from Chief Engineer WRD Amaravati before starting detailed design of PDN work.
Use of HDPE pipes has been increasing rapidly for irrigation distribution network. These pipes are
light in weight and thus easy to handle and lay in the field, also they are leak proof. They are used for
both low pressure and high-pressure system.
i) The gravity flow pipeline is generally suitable for ground slope Steeper than 1 in 300 or and otherwise
buster pumps are necessary to create sufficient head and to maintain minimum/ non silting velocity in
the pipe
j) Techno-economic feasibility as compare to open channel
k) Improve benefit cost ratio
l) Improve water use efficiency
m) Fast potential development and its efficient utilization, high returns on the capital investment
3.3.1 Pipe material shall be judiciously selected from the point of view of durability, life and overall
cost, which includes, besides the pipe cost, the installation and maintenance cost necessary to ensure
the required function and performance of the pipelines throughout the designed lifetime.
The most widely use material for low-pressure pipeline system is reinforced cement concrete and plain
cement concrete. However, the DI/MS/HDPE pipes are recommended, as the various dia. pipes are
now easily available, ease in installation and significantly maintenance free, immediate and easy
repairs at local levels.
5. Controlling levels at source e.g. CBL of head regulator, FSIL in Distribution chamber
6. Cropping pattern is provided in Volume-II.
5.2 PLANNING:
The PDN comprises of intake chamber at outlet of minor / distributor and a pipe turnout /
hydrant in each sub chak. The intake chamber helps the water to enter the DI/MI/HDPE pipeline
system gravitationally. It also helps as silt chamber to deposit the grit / silt before entering the PDN.
5.2.1 Steps to be followed in planning and designing PDN.
1. Decide the water allowance i.e. discharge lps per ha CCA considering the fortnightly
crop water requirement to be fulfill in a rotation of seven days with six days running time.
2. Chak Planning - Decide the chak size. The chak size should be so selected that it
should receive 4 to 6 lps discharge i.e. discharge equal to a well water pump set, to which the farmers
are familiar and are able to irrigate their filed either by surface water application methods.
3. After conducting detailed survey, the GCA under this scheme was identified.
Following points as per general practice are followed during chak planning. As far as possible, the
chaks are planned considering natural topographical boundaries such as Major Nallas, Major Roads,
Railway track, Village settlement areas, Survey boundaries etc. While planning of the chaks, every
effort is made not to cross Village boundaries & Gut boundaries. As far as possible, the average Chak
size is kept close to 24 Ha (GCA). The Chak Planning should be done in such a way that the proposed
outlet comes at the highest elevation for that particular Chak, so that the whole area of the chak can be
irrigated.
4. Mark the boundaries of the chak and fix the turnout location in such a way that
complete area can be irrigated with minimum removal of high-level ground patches.
5. Mark the alignment of DI/MS/HDPE pipelines. Lateral supplies water to TOs, sub
mains supplies water to two or more laterals/sub main or a combination of sub mains and laterals the
alignment is proposed as per site situation and location of the high point in the chak. The apex points
are coming in horizontal alignment so as to avoid obstructions such as Village settlement area, Forrest
land, Nallas, roads etc. The distribution network is aligned in such a way that it should irrigate all the
chaks within minimum length. The diameter of main lines is verifying from the head to tail portion
respectively according to the discharge requirement.
6. Knowing the discharge through a pipe component, its length, elevation difference
between its two ends find out the diameter of the pipe required in such a way that the frictional head
loss compensate the elevation difference.
7. To account for the losses due to bends, tees, reducers etc. the efficiency assumed as
90% for lateral, 95% for sub main and 98% for mains.
8. Diameter at the main pipe is so decided that the effective head i.e. (HGL - GL) should not be less
than 0.60 m. However, in exceptional cases effective head to the extent of 0.20 m may be allowed.5.3
MAPPING AND DRAWING:
5.3.1 For grass root planning / initial planning, topographical map of the area in AutoCAD is required. Contour,
allied details shall be shown, to have an idea of topography. Maps should depict all major details i.e. building,
roads, railroads, lakes points, irrigation structures, etc.
5.3.2 The alignment should be prepared for the PDN.
5.3.3 Use of Casing: Buried gravity piping system can be installed under railroads, plant roads and equipment
access ways without the use of casing, sleeves or boots. Usually 1 m of well-compacted earth cover above the
top of the pipe is sufficient to protect the pipe from most anticipated live and dead loads. In case of existence of
unstable soils or poor drainage, casing to the pipe is required. Casings are usually jacked, augured or tunneled
under roads, railroads or access ways. Casing material includes carbon steel pipe, corrugated steel pipe and
reinforced concrete sewer and drainpipe.
The design of supply conduits is dependent on resistance to flow, available pressure or head, allowable
velocities of flow, sediment transpose quality of water and relative cost.
5.5.1 Formulae: There are number of formulae available for use in calculating velocity of flow / friction head
loss and normally Modified Hazen-William's formula is used for DI/MS/HDPE.
