PROCEDURE NO: - INDCON-PJPL-STN-PNP-CIVIL-12

FLOORING USING FLOOR TILES:Floor tiles be of best available quality shall be used in flooring. They shall be of
specified thickness and size, type and colour. The base shall first be prepared.
Over the prepared base 1:3:6 cement concrete screeds shall be laid to make up
the total thickness of floor finish. The surface shall be laid to falls and slopes as
required and scratched for key.
After the base is cured and dried, 20 mm thick cement mortar 1:4 shall be laid on
The surface and spread evenly with a trowel. A neat cement slurry of honey l
soaked in water shall be placed over the mortar and brought to proper level by
striking gently with a wooden mallet. The tile shall be laid in the manner as
specified above in required pattern with as thin a joint as possible. They shall be
thoroughly cleaned and pointed with white cement slurry (1 white cement: 2
sand) admixed with pigment of matching colour as the tiles.
The tiles shall be cured for 7 days with water and then thoroughly cleaned and
dried.

CEMENT CONCRETE FLOORING WITH METALLIC HARDENER

TOPPING:Metallic concrete hardener topping where so specified shall consists of 15 mm
thick layer of mix 1:2 by volume or as otherwise specified, with which metallic
hardening compound is mixed in ratio of 1:4 by weight. The metallic compound
shall be of approved quality consisting of uniformly graded iron particles, free
from non-ferrous metal particles, oil, grease, sand, soluble alkaline compound.
Concrete hardener shall be dry mixed thoroughly with cement on a clean dry
pucca platform. This dry mixture shall be mixed with stone aggregate 6 mm
nominal size or as otherwise specified in the ratio 1:2 by volume and well turned
over. Just enough water shall then be added to this dry mix as required for floor
concrete. The mixture so obtained shall be laid in 15 mm thickness over 37 mm
thick under layer of cement concrete floor 1:2:4 with in 2 to 4 hours of its laying.
The toping shall be laid true to provide a uniform and even surface. After the
initial set has started the surface shall be finished smooth true to slope with steel
floats.

MARBLE FLOORING:Page 3 of 4

Every stone shall be cut to the required size and shape, fine chisel dressed on all
sides to the full depth. The top surface shall also be fine chisel dressed to
remove all waviness. The thickness of the slab shall be as specified. Base
concrete or the RCC slab on which the slabs are to be laid shall be cleaned,
wetted and mopped. The bedding for the slabs shall be with cement mortar 1:4 of
20 mm average thickness. Slabs free from all adherent materials shall be laid on
bed, pressed and tapped with wooden mallet and brought to the level of the
adjoining slabs. It shall then be lifted and laid aside. The hollows created in the
mortar bed are made good. The mortar is allowed to harden a bit and cement
slurry of honey like consistency shall be spread at the rate of 4.4 kg of cement
per sq.m. The edges of the slabs already paved shall be filled with white cement
with or without admixture of pigment to match the shade of the marble slabs. The
slab to be paved shall then be placed back in position and tapped with wooden
mallet till it is properly bedded in level. After each slab has been laid surplus
cement on the surface of the slabs shall be cleaned off. Slabs adjoining the wall
shall enter not less than 12 mm under the skirting. Floor shall be kept wet for a
minimum period of 7 days. The floor shall then be grounded & polished.

KOTA STONE FLOORING:The slabs shall be of selected quality, hard, sound and homogenous in texture
free from cracks, decay, weathering and flaws. They shall be hand or machine
cut to the requisite thickness. Every slab shall be cut to the required size and
shape and fine chisel dressed on the sides to the full depth. The slabs shall be
the top shape polished. All angles and edges of the slabs shall be true square,
free from chippings and the surface shall be true in plane. The thickness of the
slab shall be 25 mm. and allowed tolerance with respect to length, breadth and
thickness shall be 2 mm.
Base concrete or RCC slab on which the stone slabs are to be laid shall be
cleaned, wetted and mopped. The bedding shall be with cement mortar 1:4 of 20
mm average thickness. The slab shall be washed clean before laying. It shall be
laid on top, pressed, and tapped to level with the adjoining slabs. It shall be lifted
and laid aside. The mortar surface shall then be corrected by adding fresh mortar
at hollows. The mortar is allowed to harden a bit and cement slurry of honey like
consistency shall be spread @ 4.4 kg of cement per sq.m. The edges of already
paved slabs shall be buttered with grey cement with pigment to match the shade
of the slab. The slab to be paved shall then be lowered and tapped to level with
as fine a joint as possible. Surplus cement on the surface shall be cleaned off.
The flooring shall be cured for a minimum period of 7 days. The day after the
stone slabs are laid all joints shall be cleaned with a wire brush or trowel to a
depth of 5 mm and all dust and loose mortar removed and cleaned. Joints shall
then be grouted with grey cement mixed with pigment to match the shade of the
slabs. The floor shall then be kept wet for a minimum period of 7 days. The
surface shall then be grounded & polished as specified for cast-in-situ terrazzo
