1.0 Introduction:
North Western Railway has decided the need for construction of a new Broad Gauge railway line
that extends from west to east, connecting two nodal points of Nasirabad and Sawaimadhopur
through the district of Ajmer, Tonk and Sawai Madhopur in the state of Rajasthann.
Whenever the construction of a new railway line is under consideration, preliminary
investigations are done by the railway administration to determine how the proposed line will fit
in with the general scheme of future railway development. The preliminary investigations are
normally based on a careful study of the (a) Existing topo sheets and other maps of the area, (b)
Published figures of trade and population of the area to be served, (c) Statistical data of existing
railway lines in similar terrain in other areas
Once a decision has been taken during preliminary investigations about the general feasibility
and desirability of a railway line, surveys are undertaken before the construction of the new line

The alignment in general will be as per RECT survey report. However alignment may be
detoured/changed at some locations as per site requirement.
Topographic survey is the most important survey as it establishes the exact layout of existing
ground condition and important adjacent features to access, other physical features and the
obstacles in the way of improvements. This survey also establishes reference points with the
help of which the design alignment & profile can be set on ground. The accuracy of the plans
and plan quantities depends upon the precision with which the survey is conducted. The
measurement of coordinates and elevations must be correct and the topographic information
must be complete. The final location survey shall also include fixation of reference pillars, detail
leveling and cross section along with longitudinal section, design of optimal alignment
considering the engineering parameters like degree of curve, ruling gradient, transition curve
and alignment at the location of River and grade separated structures.
Once the alignment is worked out by producing plan and profile, the location for soil
investigation at structure foundation shall be carried out. This can be done in phases on the
total stretch based on the completion of plan and profile.
The geotechnical investigation will be carried out for determining the engineering
characteristics of the sub-soil underlying the foundations of the proposed bridges, road over
bridges, viaducts or LC etc. and for embankment/ cutting so as to determine the suitability of
the soil or rock surrounding the foundation assessed based on mechanical and physical properties
like grain-size distribution, porosity of rock, ground water level, sinking and driving effort,
sensitivity, any existence of deleterious material in soil or ground water, etc along with soil
parameters and rock characteristics. Plate load test wherever required need to be conducted.
Then based on the bearing capacity from soil investigation and necessary hydraulic data as
collected the general arrangement drawings for Major/important bridges and detail working
drawing for minor bridges need to be prepared.

The detail of the work has been well described in the tender document, under Special
Conditions of Contract on NS Items of Schedule B of BOQ. However, as the work volume mainly
deals with the engineering survey and geotechnical investigation and other engineering decision
is based on the same, it is felt to give a detail description of methods of these two major
activities, namely Topographical survey ( Schedule B of BOQ) and the Geotechnical investigation
( Schedule A of BOQ).

site, to minimize any hindrance during the final location survey to prepare the working detail of
construction.
Detail review of RECT report and corresponding alignment shall be conducted to understand the
obligatory points through which the alignment passes through.
Subsequent to review, a detail desk study shall be conducted based on collected topo sheet,
imagery maps and the state of the art Google earth map.
The proposed alignment of RECT report shall be transformed to geo-referenced co-ordinate on
the maps to understand whether there is any certain or necessary changes required to obtain the
best feasible alignment.
An alignment is a combination of straight line and curves between the stations. Because the
proposed corridor is a new BG line, the geometry shall be optimized to understand the point of
intersection of tangents of the proposed alignment. The points are then verified at regular
interval on ground by their global positioning system.
The process of ground verification may come up with detour / changes in alignment other than
one obtained from desk study. Therefore, all the alternative alignment shall be tracked down.
The same shall be updated on the map for further ground verification, which shall produce the
optimum project alignment.
The above process of finding the alignment shall involve community intersection with local
government bodies and other stakeholders.
The above exercise of identifying the alignment shall be recorded on the topo sheet maps and
submitted on a regular interval for the necessary approval of the client to proceed for the detail
engineering survey and other related work.
Keeping in view the length of the proposed line which is approximately 165km, the entire
project corridor has been divided into three sections.
Section I Nasirabad to Kekri (approx 58Km)
Section II Kekri to Tonk (approx 60Km)
Section III Tonk Chauth ka Barwara (approx 47Km)
The Section from Tonk to Chaauth Ka Barwara has been given emphasis, in consultation with
Department, to be completed at first priority followed by other two sections.

Start string number (add 1 to previous station or start at 01 for each new day)
The vertical Collimation shall be checked on the First station for each day in the
following manner:
In Face Left sight to a distant well-defined object and record the Vertical circle
reading on the booking sheet.
In face, Right resight the same object and again record the Vertical circle
This error should be less than 20 to maintain the required vertical accuracy
Check that the prism constant is correct for the prisms being used for the
Traverse Detail Survey
Place a mark about 120 metres from the station and measure the distance with
the 30-metre tape.
Take a reading to the Prism at this point and ensure the horizontal distance is
within 5 mm of the taped distance.
The detailed survey is based on a rectangular coordinate system in plan which permits
preparation of highway design and will be used for setting out.
Traverse points are set out and the co ordinates are assigned by GPS (Global Positioning
System) method.
For Height Control:
Topographical sheets show a large amount of Bench Marks of survey of India (based on
MSL) along the existing road. Closed circuit leveling will be conducted from the nearest
authentic Bench mark to the primary station in the site. In absence of any GTS
benchmark confirmation, the value of the datum Bench mark to which the leveling is
related was taken as the elevation value obtained by GPS system at the first GPS pillar
and the same is connected to the TBMs and other reference pillars along the corridor.

If using a Prism pole, the chainman shall make sure that he uses an extra pole to brace
the prism pole whilst taking the readings. The extra pole should be held almost on line
with the Total station to allow the Surveyor to be able to see the bottom of the Prism
pole to set his bearing. Two sets of horizontal angles will be measured in face left and
face right.
All the horizontal angles of offset points are to be measured in face left only.
Survey shall be closed on to a known station on the main traverse everyday
so that
error, if any shall be verified and rectified on the same day. Next days survey shall
proceed only after the readings of the actual x, y, z of the Bench Mark/ Traverse Station
and recorded x, y, z values are checked and verified by the Senior Survey Engineer. If
variation is beyond the permissible limits the survey of that day shall be repeated.
Establishing Horizontal Control:-
Method of establishing a horizontal control are stated as followsThe primary traverse for an intermediate scale map is usually run with a theodolite and a
tape. The traverse system should be suitably selected. The traverse lines are generally
taken along the roads, ridges or valley lines. for the area of limited extent, the traverse
should be run near the perimeter the tract. To minimize the cumulative effect of errors,
it is desirable to arrange a closed traverse of length not exceeding 10 to 15 km & to
divide the tract into roughly equal areas. However, if it is not possible to have a closed
traverse, checks for distance should be applied using the methods discussed for an open
traverse. Checks for azimuth should be applied by astronomical observations. For
extensive area the convergency of meridian should be taken into account while applying
the azimuth check.
If a secondary traverse is required to be established inside the primary traverse, it is
desirable to run the secondary traverse simultaneously with the primary traverse.
However the secondary traverse is usually run separately to establish the instrument
stations from which the details are located. It is advisable to run the secondary traverse,
adjust it first and then locater the details.
The secondary traverse stations are selected with particular regard to the convenience in
locating details. The length of the traverse lines should not be excessive to avoid an
unduly large accumulation of errors.

NewB.G.Line
Secondary traverse are usually run with a theodolite and a tape. Sometimes especially
when accuracy requirements are not rigid, the plane table can be used occasionally a
compass is also used for running the traverse. The lengths of the sides are determined by
means of a tape sometimes; tachometric methods are also used for determining the
lengths.
A closed connecting traverse (fig.) Starts and ends at separate points, whose relative
positions have been determined by a survey of equal or higher order accuracy. An open
traverse
unlike a closed traverse, provides no check against mistakes and large errors. Open
traverses are often used for preliminary survey for a road or railroad.The order of
ACCURACY for any traverse is determined by the equipment and methods used in the
traverse measurements, by the accuracy attained, and by the accuracy of the starting
and terminating stations. Hence, the order of accuracy must be specified before
the measurements are started.

NewB.G.Line
Direct differential leveling is commonly used for establishing the bench marks. The
methods of precise leveling are also sometimes used. However for small areas or in rough
country, trigonometric leveling is also used for establishing the bench marks.
A primary level route is first established. A secondary level route is then tied to the
primary route.the secondary level route normally follows the traverse lines,and the
traverse stations can be used as bench marks/ The maximum closing error which is
permitted for primary control is normally between 12 k to 24 k in millimeters,where k
is the length of the circuit in kilometers.
for plinth. All natural and man made features such as road, drain, river,
houses, big trees, electrical/telephone/ H.T. lines, railway line, pipelines, tube well,
fencing etc are to be surveyed and shown on the map correctly. For contouring, Total
Station / Automatic Level / Dumpy Level is to be used. In plane surface,spot levels are to
be taken at an interval of 15 metre (in case any \ nullah, pond, low depression etc
coming within the area to be surveyed / spot levels are to be taken in such a way to
represent the above features correctly in the topographical map). All surveyed data are
to be calculated in connection with Survey Section's network and to be plotted in
16"=1mile & 1:600 scale. In case of forest area, maps are to be prepared in 1:500 scale.
For undulating area, contour lines must be shown correctly on the map at a contour
interval of 0.5m. Plotting works are to be done on sectional square paper and tracing
paper also
i.
Survey
Topographic survey shall be carried out with reference to traverse stations. The x, y,
z co-ordinates for each station surveyed shall be recorded with respect to the values
of traverse stations. All features shall be accurately picked up and properly coded as
explained below. A sketch for surveyed points with respect to traverse station shall
be proposed.
The sketch shall include:
Ajmer(Nasirabad)Sawaimadhopur(ChauthkaBarwara)viaTonk
NewB.G.Line
Any additional information as felt necessary and as directed by the Team Leader/
Project Manager/ Clients Representatives
A record of the string numbers on the right of the sketch shall be properly kept.
Any error found in the field shall be recorded on the booking sheet for correction.
The following shall be recorded:
ii.
Coding
Coding for feature shall comprise of four characters. First two characters describing
the feature and last two characters mentioning the string number. The string number
i.e. last two characters shall be alphanumeric starting from 01 to 09, A1 A9, B0
B9.Z0 Z9, AA-AZ, BA-BZ,.., ZA-ZZ. Whenever there is a break in a string, its
number shall be changed.
Break shall be introduced in the left & right edges of shoulder due to culverts,
bridges etc.
While recording information for a particular string number, it should be loaded in the
sequence of joining them i.e. for BG01, BG02, recording of data shall be done either
clockwise / anticlockwise as shown in the sketch below:.
BG01
BG01
BG02
BG02
BG01
BG01
BG02
BG02
All the surveyed points having the string no. BG01 shall be joined together in the
sequence of recording to draw the first building and all points having code BG02 shall
be joined together to draw the second building i.e. numeric part will indicate the
points to be joined to form the detail and descriptive part indicates the feature. The
survey data shall be thoroughly checked before it is processed through Software.
All the features that are not to be joined (e.g. telephone poles, trees, electricity
poles, spot levels etc.), shall be having their codes in the form p i.e. the point
Ajmer(Nasirabad)Sawaimadhopur(ChauthkaBarwara)viaTonk
NewB.G.Line
strings code shall always start with P. No feature shall have its survey code starting
with M, L or G.
Before proceeding to site, surveyor shall consult with Engineer and Expert, regarding
fixing of string code and do the needful as required for the Software.
Normally all heights observed are contourable. If for some unavoidable reasons any
height cannot be observed correctly then this is to be coded differently so that
design engineer can understand that these points are not to be considered for
contouring.
iii.
Banks shall be located opposite the chalk marks and any change of direction
or grade where they run parallel to the road.
When the Banks are not parallel to the road, readings every 20 metres or
change of direction or grade, whichever is earlier.
While following a bank that changes direction often, keep the top and bottom
readings next to each other to avoid the lines overlapping.
The location of the string shall be the same as for Top of Banks
These points shall be located every 25 metres or to show high or low points
natural surface points should never be used to show changes of grade instead
of a string.

NewB.G.Line
If only a few additional readings are to be taken from the Temporary Station,
the previous booking sheet shall be used; otherwise a new sheet shall be
used.
Survey shall be closed on to a known station on the main traverse everyday so that error,
if any shall be verified and rectified on the same day. Next days survey shall proceed only
after the readings of the actual x,y,z of the Bench Mark/ Traverse Station and recorded
x,y,z values are checked and verified by the Senior Survey Engineer. If variation is beyond
the permissible limits the survey of that day shall be repeated.

In fixing the alignment of railway line, the following points require attention.
o
Position of Curves.-It is preferable to have cuttings and tunnels on straight track but they
may be provided on curves if the cost of having them on the straight is excessive.
Transition Curves.- The shape of transition shall be a cubic parabola with a linear. The
length of transitions should correspond to the speed projected of the projected line
BG the length should be worked out on the basis of 185 mm cant. The cant gradient shall
be so chosen that the rate of change of cant/cant deficiency at the maximum
permissible speed does not exceed 55 mm/sec. under any circumstances for BG lines. For

the purpose of designing the future layout of the curves, a cant gradient of in 1.200 shall
be aimed at for BG lines.
o The desirable minimum length of straight between reverse curve should be 50 m for BG.
o Gradients - Sags in cuttings should be avoided to the maximum possible extent. If possible
sharp changes of gradient should be avoided on curves.
o Vertical Curves - Vertical curves shall be laid out only on those points of change of grade
where the algebric difference between the grade is equal to or more than 4 MM/Metre.
Survey for the Provision of Additional Lines. In carrying out the survey for the provision of
additional lines (alongside the existing track) the following points require attention
Ajmer(Nasirabad)Sawaimadhopur(ChauthkaBarwara)viaTonk
NewB.G.Line
The projected line should be laid parallel to the existing line as far as possible on the right
hand side or on the left hand side, depending on
While determining the alignment for the additional lines, the following points have to be
considered :
(i) Existing bridges should be extended wherever possible with tracks to the same track centres
over the bridge portion as on approaches thereby avoiding reverse curves.
(ii) Adequate vertical clearance for bridges should be provided in terms of the recommendation
of Khosla Committee and that contained in "IRS Code of Practice for the Design of Sub- structure
of Bridges" should be followed, irrespective of whether specified free- board is available or not
Ajmer(Nasirabad)Sawaimadhopur(ChauthkaBarwara)viaTonk
NewB.G.Line
The degree of curvature to be adopted on the new line should suit the projected speed
corresponding to the category of line. At locations where the new alignment is being located
on the outside of existing curves which are sharper than the limiting degree of curvature
compatible with the projected speed of the line, the new line has to be located further away
to avoid infringements, which will involve additional cost unless the existing curves are also
realigned before the construction of new line.
For Major Bridges, cross section should be taken of the river bed at suitable points and the
position marked on the survey plan. The level of the highest known flood or ordinary flood
and of ordinary low water should be noted on each
cross section. The average slope of the river bed is to be determined from a point about 1
Kms above the railway crossing to a point 1 Kms below the same. In case there are sharp
changes in the bed slopes the local bed slope will have to be determined over a shorter
length.

NewB.G.Line
Whenever reliable information of high flood levels can be obtained one should be Observed
and the past data of HFL or Design discharge or if required the area of catchment or average
rainfall etc should be made available to us. Generally area velocity method will be followed
for calculation.
7.1 Tasks
The geotechnical investigations shall include the following activities:
Exploration of surface material and subsoil conditions of the site and provision of general
Data relating to the project site.
Field identification of soil and rock types, if present, with depth, records of their
occurrence and location of their structural discontinuities.
Field Standard Penetration Tests to determine the natural bearing resistance of the subsoil
for the purpose of design.
Collecting disturbed and undisturbed soil samples for visual examination and for carrying
out laboratory tests on selected samples to determine the natural, physical and relevant
engineering properties of the soil.
Chemical analyses

All details are to be recorded as specified in the relevant standards. All field tests are to be
carried out using properly calibrated equipment. The recording of borehole data
shall be as per
Ajmer(Nasirabad)Sawaimadhopur(ChauthkaBarwara)viaTonk
NewB.G.Line
2131 Method of Standard Penetration Test for Soils. The samples obtained from the
split spoon shall be labeled and preserved for identification tests in the laboratory
The standard penetration test shall be discontinued when SPT N values are greater than
100 for 30cm penetrations or the sampler meets refusal from the strata.
All samples (disturbed and undisturbed) collected from the boreholes shall be labeled. In
case of undisturbed samples, label shall be attached to the top of the samples.
7.6 Sampling
A clean, open bore hole, if necessary cased, with the required diameter shall be drilled to the
desired sample depth with a minimum of disturbed material at the bottom of the hole. Prior to
the sampling operation, the drilled hole shall be cleaned. All loose and disturbed aterial shall
be removed. All samples shall be sealed and properly labeled.
Disturbed samples shall be taken from all bore holes for cohesive and non cohesive soils at every
change of material and at intervals of 1.5 m. Disturbed samples shall also be collected from the
split spoon sampler after conducting SPT. The samples shall be preserved in transparent polythene
bags. Upon removal of the sampler from the bore hole, the disturbed sample obtained shall be
measured and visually examined, packed, marked and stored in thick plastic bags and
identified and described in bore log. A representative section of the recovered sample shall be
preserved.
Undisturbed samples shall be taken every 1.5 m interval or at intervals as directed by Site
Engineer.
Probing has to be carried out before SPT. If it is obvious that undisturbed samples
could not be recovered (e.g. due to non cohesive material) only standard penetration test
according to clause 6.1 shall be carried out.
Samples for recovering undisturbed samples from cohesive soils shall confirm to IS: 2132. The area
ratio of the cutting edge as well as recovery ratio shall be measured. The undisturbed soil samples
are collected in samplers appropriate for the encountered material, usually thin walled tubes of
min. 100 mm (4 in.) diameter and driving the sampler using a 63.5 kg hammer in accordance
with IS: 2132-.
Immediately after removal from the hole, the obtained sample shall be visually
examined, identified and described according to the trimmings from the top and bottom ends of
the tube. Then the tube sample shall be sealed with wax at both ends and preserved as
"Undisturbed Sample" and stored and preserved until two months after final report if not used.
Undisturbed samples shall also be extracted from the test pits at the bottom of the pit and at
every change of stratum.

Plate load tests shall be carried out in accordance with IS:1888. The size and shape of the
bearing plate, the size of the test pit, placing of test plate and preloading shall conform
to IS:1888. However, minimum size of plate shall be 600 mm.
Load shall be applied on the test plate incrementally by reaction loading taking care to
avoid impact, fluctuation, tilting of plate or eccentricity so as to reach the soil as uniformly
distributed static load.
The loading shall be increased generally in increments of 5 t/m2 pressure intensity until the
total settlement of plate reaches
earlier. In case, above conditions are not reached, minimum intensity of load to be applied
on plate should be 70 t/m2. Net settlements of plate after complete withdrawal of load
must be recorded and reported. Settlement observation and load increments shall be as per
IS:1888. Settlements of test plate shall be recorded by at least two (2) dial gauges of minimum
accuracy of 0.02 mm fixed at diametrically opposite ends of plate as per IS:1888. Load-timesettlement records shall be maintained throughout the test. Curves for load-settlement
in arithmetic and time-settlement in logarithmic scales shall be plotted.
A sample borelog is given in the next page.
