7.0 CLASSIFICATION
All materials to be excavated shall be classified by Engineer, into one of the following classes and shall be paid
for at the rates tendered for that particular class of material. No distinction shall be made whether the material is
dry, moist or wet. The decision of Engineer regarding the classification of the material shall be final and binding
on Contractor and not be a subject matter of any appeal or arbitration.
Any earthwork will be classified under any of the following categories:
a) Ordinary & Hard Soils
These shall include all kinds of soils containing kankar, sand, silt, murrum and/or shingle, gravel,
clay, loam, peat, ash, shale, etc., which can generally be excavated by spade, pick axes and
shovel, and which is not classified under soft and decomposed rock and hard rock defined
below. This shall also include embedded rock boulders not longer than 1 meter in any direction
and not more than 200 mm in any one of the other two directions.
b) Soft and Decomposed Rock
This shall include rock, boulders, slag, chalk, slate, hard mica schist, laterite and all other materials
which in the opinion of Engineer is rock, but does not need blasting and could be removed with
picks, hammer, crew bars, wedges, and pneumatic breaking equipment. The mere fact that
Contractor resorts to blasting for reasons of his own shall not qualify for classification under `hard
rock. This shall also include excavation in macadam and tarred roads and pavements. This shall
also include rock boulders not longer than 1 meter in any direction and not more than 500
mm in any one of the other tow directions. Masonry to be dismantled will also be measured
under this item.
c) Hard Rock
This shall include all rock occurring in large continuous masses, which cannot be removed except
by blasting for loosening it. Hard varieties of rock with or without veins and secondary minerals,
which, in the opinion of Engineer require blasting, shall be considered as hard rock.
Boulders of rock occurring in such sizes and not classified under (a) and (b) above shall also be
classified as hard rock. Concrete work both reinforced and un-reinforced to be dismantled will be
measured under this item, unless a separate provision is made in the Schedule of Quantities.
8.0 EXCAVATION
8.1 All excavation work shall be carried out by mechanical equipment's unless, in the opinion of Engineer, the
work involved and time schedule permit manual work.
8.2 Excavation for permanent work shall be taken out to such widths, lengths, depths and profiles as
are shown on the drawings or such other lines and grades as may be specified by
Engineer. Rough excavation shall be carried out to a depth 150 mm above the final level.
The balance shall be excavated with special care. Soft pockets shall be removed even
below the final level and extra excavation filled up as directed by Engineer should be carried out
just prior to laying the mud-mat.
8.3 Contractor may, for facility of work or similar other reasons excavate, and also backfill
later, if so approved by Engineer, at his own cost, outside the lines shown on the drawings

or directed by Engineer. Should any excavation be taken below the specified elevations,
Contractor shall fill it up, with concrete of the same class as in the foundation resting
thereon, up to the required elevation. Contractor shall claim no extra on this account.
8.4 All excavation shall be done to the minimum dimensions as required for safety and working
facility. Prior approval of Engineer shall be obtained by Contractor in each individual cases, for
the methods he proposes to adopt for the excavation, including dimensions, side slopes, dewatering,
disposal, etc.
This approval, however, shall not in any way relieve contractor of his responsibility for any
consequent loss or damage. The excavation must be carried out in the most expeditious and
efficient manner. Side slopes shall be as step as will stand safely for the actual soil conditions
encountered. Every precaution shall be taken to prevent slips. If slips occur, the slipped material
shall be removed and the slope dressed to a modified stable slope. Removal of the slipped earth
will not be paid for if the slips are due to the negligence of contractor.
8.5 Excavation shall be carried out with such tools, tackles and equipment as described above.
Blasting or other methods may be resorted to in the case of hard rock; however not without the
specific permission of Engineer.
8.6 Engineer may also direct that in some extreme case, the rock may be excavated by heating and
sudden quenching for splitting the rock. Fire - wood shall be used for burning and payment shall
be made for such work as called for in the schedule of quantities.
9.0 STRIPPING LOOSE ROCK
All loose boulders, semi-detached rocks (along with earthy stuff which might move therewith) not directly
in the excavation but so close to the area to be excavated as to be liable, in the opinion of Engineer, to fill or
otherwise endanger the workmen, equipment, or the work, etc., shall be stripped off and removed away from the
area of the excavation. The method used shall be such as not to shatter or render unstable or unsafe the portion,
which was originally sound and safe.
Any material not requiring removal as contemplated in the work, but which, in the opinion of Engineer, is
likely to become loose or unstable later, shall also be promptly and satisfactorily removed as directed by Engineer.
The cost of such stripping will be paid for at the unit rates accepted for the class of materials in question.
10.0 FILL, BACK FILLING AND SITE GRADING
10.1 GENERAL
All fill materials will be subject to Engineers approval. If Engineer rejects any materials,
Contractor shall remove the same forthwith from the site at no extra cost to the Owner. Surplus fill
material shall be deposited/disposed off as directed by Engineer after the fill work is completed.
No earth fill shall commence until surface water discharges and streams have been properly
intercepted or otherwise dealt with as directed by Engineer.
10.2 MATERIAL
To the extent available, selected surplus spoils from excavated materials shall be used as backfill.
Fill materials shall be free from clods, salts, sulphates, and organic or other foreign material. All
clods of earth shall be broken into pieces not larger than 150-mm size mixed with properly
graded fine materials consisting of murrum or earth to fill up the voids and the mixture used for
filling.
10.3 If any selected fill material is required to be borrowed; Contractor shall make arrangements
for bringing such material form outside borrow pits. The material and source shall be
subject to prior approval of Engineer. The approved borrow pit area shall be cleared of all
bushes, roots of trees, plants, rubbish etc. top soil containing salts/ sulphates and other foreign
materials shall be removed. The materials so removed shall be burnt or disposal off as
directed by Engineer. Contractor shall make necessary access roads to borrow areas and
maintain the same, if such access road does not exist, at his cost.
10.4 FILLING IN PITS AND TRENCHES AROUND FOUNDATIONS OF STRUCTURES, WALLS
ETC.

As soon as the work in foundations has been accepted and measured, the spaces around
the foundations, structures, pits, trenches etc, shall be cleared of all debris, and filled with earth in
layers not exceeding 45 cm., each layer being watered, rammed and properly consolidated,
before the succeeding one is laid. Each layer shall be consolidated to the satisfaction of Engineer.
Earth shall be rammed with approved mechanical compaction machines. Usually no manual
compaction shall be allowed unless Engineer is satisfied than in some cases manual
compaction by tampers cannot be avoided. The final backfill surface shall be trimmed and
leveled to proper profile as directed by Engineer or indicated on the drawings.
10.5 PLINTH FILLING
10.5.1 Plinth filling shall be carried out with approved material as described above in layers not exceeding
45 cm, watered and compacted with mechanical compaction machines. Engineer may
however permit manual compaction by hand tampers in case he is satisfied that mechanical
compaction is not possible. When filling reaches the finished level, the surface shall be
flooded with water, unless otherwise directed, for at least 24 hours, allowed to dry and then the
surface again compacted as specified above to avoid settlements at a later stage. The finished
level of the filling shall be trimmed to the level/slope specified.
10.5.2 Where specified in the schedule of works, compaction of the plinth fill shall be carried out by
means of 12 tones rollers smooth wheeled, sheep-foot or wobbly wheeled rollers. A smaller
weight roller may be used only if permitted by Engineer. As rolling proceeds water
sprinkling shall be done to assist consolidation. Water shall not be sprinkled in case of sandy
fill.
The thickness of each unconsolidated fill layer can in this case be up to a maximum of
450 mm. Engineer will determine the thickness of the layers in which fill has to be consolidated
depending on
the fill materials and equipment used.
Rolling shall commence from the outer edge and progress towards the centre and continue
until compaction is to the satisfaction of Engineer, but in no case less than 10 passes of the roller
will be accepted for each layer.
The compacted surface shall be properly shaped, trimmed and consolidated to an even and uniform
gradient. All soft spots shall be excavated and filled and consolidated.
At some location/areas it may not be possible to use rollers because of space restrictions
etc. Contractor shall then be permitted to use pneumatic tampers, rammers, etc. and he shall ensure
proper compaction.
10.6 SAND FILLING IN PLINTH AND OTHER PLACES
At places backfilling shall be carried out with local sand if directed by Engineer. The sand used
shall be clean, medium grained and free from impurities. The filling-in-sand shall be kept
flooded with water for 24 hours to ensure maximum consolidation. Any temporary work required
to contain sand under flooded condition shall be to Contractors account. The surface of the
consolidated sand shall be dressed to required level or slope. Construction of floors or other
structures on sand fill shall not be started until Engineer has inspected and approved the fill.
10.7 FILLING IN TRENCHES
10.7.1 Filling in trenches for pipes and drains shall be commenced as soon as the joints of pipe and drains
have been tested and passed. The backfilling materials shall be properly consolidated by watering
and ramming, taking due care that no damage is caused to the pipes.
10.7.2 Where the trenches are excavated in soil, the filling from the bottom of the trench to the level of the
centerline of the pipe shall be done by hand compaction with selected approved earth in
layers, backfilling above the level of the centre line of the pipe shall be done with selected
earth by hand compaction or other approved means in layers.
10.7.3 In case of excavation of trenches in rock, the filling up to a level 30 cm. above the top of the pipe
shall be done with fine materials, such as earth, murrum etc. The filling up of the level of the
centerline of the pipe shall be done by hand compaction in layers. Whereas the filling above the

centreline of the pipe shall be done by hand compaction or approved means in layer not exceeding
45 cms. The filling from a level 30-cm above the top of the pipe to the trench shall be done by hand
or other approved mechanical methods with broken rock filling mixed with fine material as
available to fill up the voids.
10.7.4 Filling of the trenches shall be carried simultaneously on both sides of the pipe to avoid
unequal pressure on the pipe.
11.0 GENERAL SITE GRADING
11.1 Site grading shall be carried out as indicated in the drawings and as directed by Engineer.
Excavation shall be carried out as specified in the specification. Filling and compaction shall be
carried out as specified under Clause 10.0 and elsewhere unless otherwise indicated below.
11.2 If no compaction is called for, the fill may be deposited to the full height in one operation and
leveled.
If the fill has to be compacted, it shall be placed in layers not exceeding 450 mm and
leveled uniformly and compacted as indicated in Clause 10.0 before the next layer is deposited.
11.3 To ensure that the fill has been compacted as specified, field and laboratory tests shall be carried
out by Contractor at his cost.
11.4 Field compaction test shall be carried out at different stages of filling and also after the fill to the
entire height has been completed. This shall hold good for embankments as well.
11.5 Contractor shall protect the earth fill from being washed away by rain or damaged in any other
way.
Should any slip occur, Contractor should remove the affected material and make good the slip at
his cost.
11.6 The fill shall be carried out to such dimensions and levels as indicated on the drawings
after the stipulated compaction. The fill will be considered as incomplete if the desired
compaction has not been obtained.
11.7 If specifically permitted by Engineer, compaction can be obtained by allowing loaded
trucks conveying fill or other material to ply over the fill area. Even if such a method is permitted,
it will be for Contractor to demonstrate that the desired/ specified compaction has been obtained.
In order that the fill may be reasonably uniform throughout, the material should be
dumped in place in approximately uniform layers. Traffic over the fill shall then be so
routed to compact the area uniformly throughout.
11.8 If so specified, the rock as obtained from excavation may be used for filling and levelling to
indicate grades without further breaking. In such an event, filling shall be done in layers not
exceeding 50 cm approximately. After rock filling to the approximate level, indicated above has
been carried out the void in the rocks shall be filled with finer materials such as earth,
broken stone, etc. and the area flooded so that the finer materials fill up the voids. Care shall be
taken out. Over the layer so filled, as 100 mm thick mixed layer of broken material and earth shall
be laid and consolidation carried out by a 12-tone roller. No less than twelve passes of the roller
shall be accepted before subsequent similar operations are taken up.
12.0 FILL DENSITY
The compaction, only where so called for, in the schedule of quantities/items shall comply with the specified
(proctor modified proctor) density at moisture content differing not more than 4 percent from
the optimum moisture content. Contractor shall demonstrate adequately at his cost, by field and laboratory
tests that the specified density has been obtained.

13.0 LEAD
Lead for deposition/disposal of excavated material, shall be as specified in the respective item of work. For the
purpose of measurement of lead, the area to be excavated or filled or area on which excavated material is to be
deposited/disposed off shall be divided into suitable blocks and for each of the blocks, the distance between
centerlines shall be taken as the lead which shall be measured by the shortest straight line route on the plan and not
the actual route taken by Contractor. No extra compensation is admissible on the grounds that the lead including

that for borrowed material had to be transported over marshy or `katcha land/route. The disposal of surplus
material shall be done in the area specified by the Engineer in charge (within the VMSS limit).
14.0 MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT
14.1 All excavation shall be measured net dimensions for purpose of payment shall be reckoned
on the horizontal area of the excavation at the base for foundations of the walls, columns, footing,
tanks, rafts or other foundations/structures to be built, multiplied by the mean depth from
the surface of the ground in accordance with the drawings. Excavation in side slope will not be
paid for. Contractor may make such allowance in his rates to provide for excavation in side slopes
keeping in mind the nature of the soil and safety of excavation. Reasonable working space,
beyond concrete dimensions and shuttering where considered necessary in the opinion of
Engineer will be allowed in excavation and considered for payment. However, if concreting is
proposed against the excavated sides, no such over-excavation will be permitted. In such cases
over-excavation shall be mad good by Contractor with concrete of the same class as in the
foundation at his cost.
14.2 Unless otherwise specified, the unit rates quoted for excavation in different types of materials shall
also account for a basic lead of 100 meters for disposal as specified or directed. Only leads beyond
the basic lead of 100 meters will be considered as extra lead and paid for at the rates
quoted in the schedules.
14.3 Backfilling as per specification the sides of foundations of columns, footings, structures, walls,
tanks, rafts, trenches etc. with excavated materials will not be paid for separately. It shall
be clearly understood that the rate quoted for excavation including backfilling shall include
stacking of excavated material as directed, excavation/packing of selected stacked material,
conveying it to the place of final backfill, compaction etc. as specified. As a rule material
to be backfilled shall be stacked temporarily within the basic lead of 100 meters unless otherwise
directed by the Engineer. If Engineer directs/permits a lead of over 100 meters for such material,
the conveyance of the material for the extra distance over the basic lead of 100 meters for
backfilling will be paid for.
14.4 Payment for fill inside trenches, plinth or similar filling with selected excavated material will be
made for only compaction as specified/directed. Cost of all other operations shall be deemed to
have been covered in the rate quoted for excavation. Payment for this work will be made based on
measurement of plinth/trench dimensions filled. The Plinth ground levels shall be surveyed
before hand for this purpose. If no compaction is specified/desired such filling will not be
separately paid for. In such an event the fill shall be finished/finished to the profile as directed at
no extra cost.
14.5 Backfilling, plinth filling etc. with borrowed earth will be paid for at rates quoted. The quoted rate
shall include all operations such as clearing, excavation, lead and transport, fill, compaction
etc. as specified. Actual quantity of consolidated filling or actual quantity or excavation in the
borrow pits (less such topsoil which has been excavation and not used for filling) whichever
is less shall be measured and paid for in cubic meters. The lead, lift etc. shall be as
indicated in the schedule of quantities.
14.6 Actual quantity of consolidated sand filling shall be measured and paid in cubic meters.
14.7 The excavation and working in wet condition including De-watering shall be paid based on
the approved tender rate with out any extra rate.

This specification covers the general requirements of timber shoring for excavation of trenches, pits, open
excavations etc. Shoring / Strutting item shall be operated by the contractor where excavation in slope as mentioned
in excavation clause is not possible due to space restriction or where the soil strata
is loose and needs protection and safety for working.

2.0 DESCRIPTION

2.1 Close timbering shall be done by completely covering the sides of the trenches and pits generally
with short, upright members called `polling boards. These shall be of minimum 25 cm x 4 cm
sections or as directed by Engineer. The board shall generally be placed in position
vertically side by side without any gap on each side of the excavation and shall be secured by
horizontal walling of strong wood at maximum 1.2 meters spacing, strutted with bellies or as
directed by Engineer. The length of the belie struts shall depend on the width of the trench or pit.
If the soil is very soft and loose, the boards shall be placed horizontally against each side of
the excavation and supported by vertical wailings, which in turn shall be suitably strutted.
The lowest boards supporting the sides shall be taken into the ground and no portion of the
vertcal side of the trench or pit shall remain exposed, so as to render the earth liable to slip out.
2.2 Timber shoring shall be `close or òpen type, depending on the nature of soil and the depth of pit
or trench. The type of timbering shall be as approved by Engineer. It shall be the
responsibility of contactor to take all necessary steps to prevent the sides of excavations,
trenches, pits, etc., from collapsing.
2.3 Timber shoring may be required to keep the sides of excavations vertical to ensure safety of
adjoining structures or to limit the slope of excavations, or due to space restrictions or for other
reasons. Such shoring shall be carried out, except in an emergency, only under instructions from
Engineer.
2.4 The withdrawal of the timber shall be done very carefully to prevent the collapse of the pit or
trench. It shall be started at one end and proceeded with systematically to the other end. Concrete
or masonry shall not be damaged during the removal of the timber. No claim shall be entertained
for any timber, which cannot be withdrawn and is lost or buried.
2.5 In case of open timbering the entire surface of the side of trench or pit is not required to the
covered. The vertical boards of minimum 25 cm x 4 cm sections shall be spaced
sufficiently apart to leave unsupported strips of maximum 50 cm average width. The detailed
arrangement, sizes of the timber and the spacing shall be subject to the approval of Engineer. In
all other respects, specification for close timbering shall apply to open timbering.
2.6 In case of large pits and open excavations, where shoring is required for securing safety of
adjoining structures or for any other reasons and where the planking for sides of
excavations/pits cannot be strutted against, suitable inclined struts supported on the excavated bed
shall be provided. Load from such struts shall be suitably distributed on the bed to ensure no
yielding of the strut. If, however, Engineer directs any timbering to be left in, keeping in
mind the type of construction or any other factor, Contractor shall be paid for at the scheduled
item rate for such left - in timbering.
3.0 MEASUREMENT
The actual effective area of shored faces as approved by Engineer shall be measured in sq. m. The area of
planking embedded in the bed/sides of excavation will not be considered, nor the area supporting inclined
struts in case of large pits/open excavation. All planks, boards, waling, verticals, struts, props and all other
materials for shoring and subsequent safe dismantling and removal shall be included in the quoted unit rates.

2.0 DESCRIPTION
2.1 All excavations shall be kept free of water; Grading in the vicinity of excavations shall be
controlled to prevent surface water running into excavated areas. Contractor shall remove by
pumping or other means approved by Engineer any water inclusive of rain water and subsoil
water accumulated in excavations and keep all excavating dewatered until the foundation work is
completed and backfilled Sumps made for dewatering must be kept clear of the
excavations/trenches required for further work. Method of pumps shall be approved by Engineer
but in any case, the pumping arrangement shall be such that there shall be no movement of subsoil
or blowing in due to differential head of water during pumping. Pumping arrangements shall be
adequate to ensure no delays in construction.
2.2 When there is a continuous inflow of water and quantum of water to be handled is considered in the
opinion of Engineer, as large, well point system - Single stage of multistage, shall be
adopted, Contractor shall submit to Engineer his scheme of well point system including the stages,
the spacing, number and diameter of well points, headers etc., and the number, capacity and
location of pumps of approval. Unless separately provided for in the Schedule of prices, the cost
of dewatering shall be including in the item rate for excavation.
3.0 MEASUREMENT
Unless separately provided for in the Schedule of quantities, dewatering is deemed to have been included
in the unit rates quoted for excavation. If separately provided for, the unit of measurement shall be as indicated in
the schedule of quantities.

SECTION-D4 :: RAIN WATER DRAINAGE
1.0 SCOPE
Grading in the vicinity of excavation shall be such as to exclude rain/surface water draining into excavated
areas. Excavation shall be kept clean of rain and such water as the contractor may be using

23.0 TESTING CONCRETE STRUCTURES FOR LEAKAGE
23.1 Hydrostatic test for water tightness shall be done at full storage level or soffit of cover slab as may be
directed by ENGINEER, as described below:

a) In case of structures whose external faces are exposed, such as elevated tanks, the
requirements of the test shall be deemed to be satisfied if the external faces show no sign
of leakage or sweating and remain completely dry during the period of observation of
seven days after allowing a seven day period for absorption after filling with water.
b) In the case of structures whose external faces are submerged and are not accessible for
inspection such as underground tanks, the structures shall be filled with water and after the
expiry of seven days after the filling, the level of the surface of the water shall be
recorded. The level of water shall be recorded again at subsequent intervals of 24 hrs
over a period of seven days. Backfilling shall be withheld till the tanks are tested.
The total drop in surface level over a period of seven days shall be taken as an indication

of the water-tightness of the structure. The ENGINEER shall decide on the actual
permissible nature of this drop in the surface level, taking into account whether the
structures are open or closed and the corresponding effect it has on evaporation
losses. Unless specified otherwise, a structure whose top is covered shall be deemed to
be water tight if the total drop in the surface level over a period of seven days does not
exceed 40 mm.
c) Each compartment/segment of the structure shall be tested individually and then all
together.

water, after curing as specified, and subjecting to the specified test pressure for specified period.
If during this period the loss of water does not exceed the equivalent of the specified rate, the
structure shall be considered to have successfully passed the test.
24.0 OPTIONAL TESTS
24.1 If the ENGINEER feels that the materials i.e. cement, sand, coarse aggregates,
reinforcement and water are not in accordance with the specifications or if specified concrete
strengths are not obtained, he may order tests to be carried out on these materials in
laboratory, to be approved by the ENGINEER, as per relevant IS Codes. Owner shall pay only
for the testing of material supplied by the OWNER, otherwise CONTRACTOR shall have to pay
for the tests. Transporting of all materials to the laboratory shall however be done by the
CONTRACTOR at no extra cost to OWNER.

tests on them or do ultrasonic testing or load testing of structure, etc. All these tests shall be
carried out by CONTRACTOR at no extra cost to the OWNER. Alternately ENGINEER also
reserves the right to ask the CONTRACTOR to dismantle and re-do such unacceptable
work at the cost of CONTRACTOR.
24.3 If the structure is certified by the ENGINEER as having failed, the cost of the test and
subsequent dismantling reconstruction shall be borne by CONTRACTOR.

3.0 CARTING AND HANDLING
Pipes and fittings/specials shall be transported from the factory to the work sites at places along the
alignment of pipeline as directed by Owner/ Engineer. Contractor shall be responsible for the safety of
pipes and fittings/specials in transit, loading/unloading. Every care shall be exercised in handling pipes
and fittings/specials to avoid damage. While unloading, the pipes and fittings/specials shall not be
thrown down from the truck on to hard surfaces. They should be unloaded on timber skids with
steadying ropes or by any other approved means. Padding shall be provided any other approved
means. Padding shall be provided between coated pipes, fittings/ specials and timber skids to avoid
damage to the coating. Suitable gaps between pipes should be left at intervals in order to permit
access from one side to the other. In case of spigot socket pipes, care should be taken
regarding orientation of pipes while unloading. As far as possible pipes shall be unloaded on one side of
the trench only. The pipes shall be checked for any visible damage (such as broken edges, cracking or
spalling of pipe) while unloading and shall be sorted out for reclamation. Any pipe, which
shows sufficient damage to preclude it from being used, shall be discarded. Dragging of pipes
and fittings/specials along concrete and similar pavement with hard surfaces shall be prohibited. Pipes
can be brought to site only after the mandatory tests i.e. are completed and pipe lots accepted. i.e. Cube
tests, T.E.B., Hydrostatic, water absorption test.
4.0 STORAGE

4.1 Each stack of pipes shall contain only pipes of same class and size, with consignment or batch
number marked on it with particulars of suppliers wherever possible. Storage shall be done on
firm level and clean ground and wedges shall be provided at the bottom layer to keep the stack
stable. The stack shall be in pyramid shape or the pipes laid length-wise and crosswise in
alternate layers. The pyramid stack shall be made for smaller diameter pipes for conserving space
in storing them. The height of the stock shall not exceed 1.5m.
4.2 Fittings/specials shall be stacked under cover and separated from pipes.
4.3 Rubber rings shall be stored in a clean, cool store away from windows, boiler, electrical
equipment and petrol, oils or other chemicals. Particularly in the field where the rubber rings are
being used it is desirable that they are not left out on the ground in the sun or overnight under
heavy frost or snow conditions.

5.0 LAYING

5.1 EXCAVATION
5.1.1 Before excavating the trench the alignment of pipeline shall be approved by Owner/Engineer. The
excavation of trenches and pits for manholes/ chambers shall be carried out in accordance
with the Technical Specification: Section-D1 and shall be done such that it does note get far ahead
of the laying operating as approved by Owner/Engineer.
5.1.2 To protect persons from injury and to avoid damage to property, adequate barricades,
construction signs, red lanterns and guards as required shall be placed and maintained during the
progress of the construction work and until it is safe for the traffic to use the roadways. The
relevant Indian Standards and the rules and regulations of local authorities in regards to safety
provisions shall be observed.
5.1.3 Suitable fencing shall be provided along the sides of trenches and pits. The posts of fencing shall
be of timber securely fixed in the ground not more than 3 m apart and they shall not be less than
75 mm in diameter or less than 1.2m above surface of the ground. There shall be two rails, one
near the top of the post and the other about 450mm above the ground and each shall be
from 50 mm to 70mm in diameter and sufficiently long to run from post to post to which they
shall be bound with strong rope. The method of projecting rails beyond the post and trying them
together where they meet will not be allowed on any account. All along the edges of the
excavation trenches a bank of earth about 1.2m high shall be formed where required by owner/
engineer for further protection.
5.1.4 The road metal and also the rubble packing shall first be stripped off for the whole
width of the trench/pit and separately deposited in such place or places as may be determined by
Owner/Engineer.
5.1.5 During excavation, large stones and rubble shall be separated and removed from the excavated
soil and stacked separately. The material from excavation shall be deposited on either side of the
trench leaving adequate clear distance from the edges of the trench and pit, or as may be necessary
to prevent the sides of the trench pit to slip or fall, or at such a distance and in such a manner as to
avoid covering fire hydrants, sluice valves, manholes covers etc. and so as to avoid abutting the
wall or structure or causing inconvenience to the public and other service organizations or
otherwise as Owner/engineer may direct.
5.1.6 Contractor shall take into account additional excavation if any as Owner/ Engineer may
require in order to locate the position of water pipes, drains, sewers etc. or any other works
which may be met with, in or about the excavation of trenches/pits while quoting the rates for
excavation. Such service lines if met with during excavation shall be properly maintained by
Contractor, by means of shoring, strutting, planking over, padding or otherwise as
Owner/Engineer may direct, and shall be protected by the Contractor from damage during the
progress of the work. All precautions shall be taken during excavation and laying operations to
guard against possible damage to any existing structure/pipeline of water, gas, sewage etc.
5.1.7 If the work for which the excavation has been made is not completed by the expected
date of the setting of monsoon as stipulated or the setting in of rain whichever is earlier, or
before the day fixed by Owner/ Engineer for filling in any excavation on account of any
festival or special occasion. Contractor shall backfill such excavation and consolidates the
filling.
5.1.8 Utmost care shall be taken to see that the width of the trench at the top of pipe is not more than
that specified. In case additional width is required it shall be provided only in the top portion
from the ground level up to 300-mm above the top of pipe. If any extra width is provided in the
area below this portion, Contractor shall have to provide remedial measures in the form of
lime concrete or rubble masonry otherwise at the discretion and to the satisfaction of
Owner/Engineer. If rock is met with, it shall be removed to 15 cm below the bottom of pipes and
fittings/specials and the space resulting shall be refilled with granular materials and properly
consolidated. Bottom of trenches/pits shall be saturated with water well rammed wherever
Owner/ Engineer may consider it necessary to do so.

5.1.9 Wherever a socket or collar of pipe or fitting/special occurs, a grip is to be cut in the bottom of the
trench or concrete bed to a depth of at least 75 mm below the bed of the pipe so that the pipe may
have a fair bearing on its shaft and does not rest upon its socket. Such grip shall be of sufficient
size in every respect to admit the hand all around the socket in order to make the joint and the grip
shall be maintained clear until the joint has been approved by Owner/Engineer.
5.1.10 When welding is to be carried out with the pipes and specials in the trench, additional excavation
of not more than 60 cm in depth and 90 cm in length shall be made at joints in order to facilitate
welding.
5.1.11 The excess excavated material shall be carried away from site of works to a place up to a distance
as directed by Owner/Engineer. This shall be done immediately so as not to cause any
inconvenience to the public or traffic. If the instructions from Engineer are not implemented
within seven days from the date of instructions to cart the materials and to clear the site,
the same shall be carried out by Owner/Engineer and any claim or dispute shall not be
entertained in this respect.
5.2 DEWATERING
During the excavation, if subsoil water is met with Contractor shall have to provide necessary
equipment and labourers for dewatering the trenches/pits by bailing out water or water mixed
with clay; if pumping out subsoil water is found to be necessary, Contractor shall provide sufficient
number of pumps for the same. In both the above cases the excavation shall be done to the required level
and the pipes shall be laid to proper alignment and gradient. Contractor shall also make
necessary arrangement for the disposal of drained water to nearby storm water drain or in a pit if allowed
by Owner/Engineer. In no case the water shall be allowed to spread over the adjoining area.
Before discharging this water into public sewer/drain, Contractor shall take necessary permission
from the local authorities.
5.3 SPECIAL FOUNDATION IN POOR SOIL
Where the bottom of the trench and sub-grade is found to consist of material which is unstable to such a
degree that in the opinion of Owner/Engineer, it cannot be removed and replaced with an approved
material thoroughly compacted in place to support the pipe properly, a suitable foundation for
the pipes, consisting of piling, timbers or other materials, in accordance with relevant drawings
and as instructed by Owner/Engineer shall be constructed.
5.4 WOODEN SHORING
5.4.1 Contractor shall suitably design polling bards, walling and struts to meet different soil conditions
that might be encountered in excavating trenches/ pits. The horizontal and vertical spacing of
struts shall be such that not only the sides of trenches shall be prevented from collapse but also
easy lowering of pipe in trenches shall be ensured without creating undue obstructions for the
excavation of the work. Any inconvenience and/or delay that might be caused in lowering
pipes in trenches as a result of adopting improper spacing of struts by Contractor shall be his
sole responsibility. No part of shoring shall be at any time be removed by Contractor without
obtaining permission from Owner/Engineer. While taking out shoring planks the hollows of any
form must simultaneously be filled in with soft earth well rammed with rammers and with water.
5.4.2 Owner/Engineer may order portions of shoring to be left in the trenches/pits at such places, where
it is found absolutely necessary to do so to avoid any damage, which may be caused to buildings,
cables, gas mains, water mains, sewers etc. in close proximity of the excavation, by pulling out
the shoring from the excavations. Contractor shall not claim, on any reason whatsoever, for the
shoring, which may have been left in by him at his, won discretion.
5.5 STEEL PLATE SHORING
Where the subsoil conditions are expected to be of a soft and unstable character in trench/pit
excavation, the normal method of timbering may prove insufficient to avoid subsidence of the
adjoining road surfaces and other services. In such circumstances Contractor will be required to use steel
trench sheeting or sheet piling adequately supported by timber struts, walling etc., as per the
instructions, manner and method directed by Owner/ Engineer. Contractor shall supply, pitch, drive and
subsequently remove trench sheeting or piling in accordance with other items of the specification.

5.6 BONING STAVES AND SIGHT RAILS
5.6.1 In laying the pipes and fittings/specials the centre for each manhole/chamber or pipeline
shall be marked by a peg. Contractor shall dig holes for and set up two posts (about 100 x 100 x
1800 mm) at each manhole/chamber or junction of pipelines at nearly equal distance from the peg
and at sufficient distances there from to be well clear of all intended excavation, so arranged that a
sight rail when fixed at a certain level against the post shall cross the centre line of the
manhole/chamber or pipelines. The sight rail shall not in any case be more than 30m apart.
intermediate rails shall be put up if directed by Owner/Engineer.
5.6.2 Boning staves of 75mm x 50 mm size shall be prepared by Contractor in various lengths, each
length being of a certain whole number of meters and with a fixed tee head and fixed
intermediate cross pieces, each about 300 mm long. The top-edge of the cross piece must be fixed
below the top-edge of the cross piece must be fixed below the top-edge of the tee-head at a
distance equal to the outside diameter of the pipe or the thickness of the concrete bed to be laid as
the case may be. The top of cross pieces shall indicate different levels such as excavation for
pipeline, top of concrete bed, top of pipe etc. as the case may be.
5.6.3 The sight rail of size 250-mm x 40 mm shall be screwed with the top edge resting against the level
marks. The centre line of the pipe shall be marked on the rail and this mark shall
denote also the meeting point of the centre lines of any converging pipes. A line drawn from the
top edge of one rail to the top edge of the next rail shall be vertically parallel with the bed of the
pipe, and the depth of the bed of pipe at any intermediate point may be determined by
letting down the selected boning staff until the tee head comes in the line of sight from rail to
rail.
5.6.4 The post and rails shall be perfectly square and planned smooth on all sides and edges. The rails
shall be painted white on both sides and the tee-heads and crosspiece of the boning staves shall be
painted black.
5.6.5 For the pipes converging to a manhole/chamber at various levels, there shall be a rail fixed for
every different level. When a rail comes within 0.60 M of the surface of the ground, a higher
sight-rail shall be fixed for use with the rail over the next point.

Pipes and fittings/specials shall be carefully lowered in the trenches. Special arrangements
such as cranes, tripods with chain pulley block for lowering the pipes and fitting/specials shall
be made by Contractor. In no case pipes and fittings/specials shall be dropped. Slings of canvas
or equally non-abrasive material of suitable width or special attachment to fit the ends of pipes
and fittings/specials shall be used to lift and lower the coated pipes and fittings/specials. The
pipes and fittings/specials shall be inspected for defects and is rung with slight hammer
preferably while suspended to detect cracks. If doubt persists, further confirmation shall be
done by pouring a little kerosene /dye on the inside of the pipe at the suspected spot. No sign of
kerosene/dyke should appear on the outside surface. Pipes and fittings/specials damaged
during lowering or aligning shall be rejected by Owner/Engineer.
5.8.2 All the pipes are to be laid perfectly true both in alignment and to gradient specified. In case of
spigot and socket pipe the socket end of the pipe shall face upstream, except when the pipeline
runs uphill in which case the socket ends should face the upgrade. The laying of pipes shall
always proceed upgrade of a slope. After placing a pipe in the trench, the spigot end shall be
centered in the socket and the pipe forced home and aligned to required gradient. The pipes shall
be secured in place with approved backfill material tamped under it except at the socket. Pipes

and fittings/specials, which do not allow a sufficient and uniform space for joints, shall
be removed and replaced with pipes and fittings/specials of proper dimensions to
ensure such uniform space. Precautions shall be taken to prevent dirt from entering the
jointing space. At times when pipe laying is not in progress, the open ends of pipe shall be
closed by a watertight plug or other means approved by Owner/Engineer. During the period that
the plug is on, the Contractor shall take proper precautions against floating of the pipe owing to
entry of water into the trench. Wherever it is necessary to deflect pipe from a straight line, either
in the vertical or horizontal plane, to avoid obstructions or where long radius curves are
permitted the deflection allowed at joints shall not exceed 2%. In case of pipes, with joints to
be made with loose collars, the collars shall be slipped on before the next pipe is laid. The pipes
shall be laid such that the marking on pipes appears at the top of the pipes.
5.8.3 The cutting of pipe for inserting valves, fittings or specials shall be done in a neat and workman
like manner without damage to the pipe so as to leave a smooth end at right angles to the axis of
the pipe. For this purpose, pipe-cutting machine shall be used.
5.9 THRUST BLOCKS
Thrust blocks shall be provided, to counteract hydraulic thrust, at places wherever directed by
Owner/Engineer and as per relevant drawing.
5.10 JOINTING
Jointing for pipes and fittings/specials shall be done in accordance with the relevant
specifications depending upon the type of pipes being used.
5.11 TESTING AND COMMISSIONING
Testing and commissioning of pipes shall be done in accordance with the relevant specifications.
5.12 BACKFILLING
Trenches shall be backfilled with approved selected excavated material only after the successful
testing of the pipeline. The tamping around the pipe shall be done by hand or other hand-operated
mechanical means. The water content of the soil shall be as near the optimum moisture content as
possible. Filling of the trench shall be carried out simultaneously on both sides of the pipe in such a
manner that unequal pressure does not occur. Backfilling shall be done in layers not exceeding 30 cm.
Each layer shall be consolidated by watering, ramming, care being taken to avoid damage to the
pipeline. In case of mild steel pipes/specials, the spiders provided during assembly and welding shall be
retained until the trench is refilled and consolidated. Where timbers are placed under the pipeline to aid
alignment, these timbers shall be removed before backfilling.
5.13 REINSTATEMENT OF ROAD/FOOTPATH
Reinstatement of road/footpath shall be done as per the requirements of local authorities and the
relevant specifications after completion of work.
5.14 CLEARING OF SITE
All surplus materials, and all tools and temporary structures shall be removed from the site as directed
by Owner/Engineer and the construction site left clean to the satisfaction of Owner/Engineer.
