1.0 Introduction
Vibration monitoring shall be carried out at all such locations where it is
required to access the effect of induced vibrations due to any dynamic
loading. A standard vibration monitoring system shall carry out this
assessment of vibration. This equipment should be able to evaluate the
parameters of vibrations in all three planes i.e. Longitudinal, Transverse and
vertical. Construction process like pile driving, blasting, soil compaction
induces vibrations that are at times above permissible limits. Permissible
limits of vibrations shall be as defined by relevant compliance code.
The method adopted shall measure peak pulse velocity, peak acceleration and
peak displacement in transverse, longitudinal and vertical direction for a
particular frequency. Every structure has its own frequency and unless the
induced vibration frequency does not match with this resonance frequency the
structure can sustain vibration safely. However vibrator forces above limits
specified in compliance code are detrimental to the health of the structure
and action contributory to such vibration should be immediately stopped.
2.0 Scope of Works

The vibration monitoring will be conducted for 8 selected locations at the
project site, Lebuhraya Pasir Gudang - Johor Bahru
The objective of this monitoring is to measure the induced vibrations for use
in vibration impact assessment and/or for compliancee verification during
construction stage of the proposed project based on the Department of
Environment guidelines.
The sampling points will be taken at the nearest constructed bridge and the
selections will be agreed by client. The vibration level readings were taken for
a consultant/S.O's decided duration at each selected location during piling and
these readings will provide data of the vibration level generated from the
surrounding of the selected points.
Appendix B
3.0 Test Equipment

The instrumentation used was the Instantel Model Minimate Plus. The
instrument captures the required data and stores in the memory for later
retrieval via computer software or direct print out. Monitoring data was taken
on the ground or structure of the locations. For ground vibrations, the
instrument measures the vibrations in three orthogonal axes, namely
transverse, vertical and longitudinal vibrations. transverse ground vibrations
agitate particles in a side to side motion. Vertical ground vibrations agitate
particles in an up and down motion. Longitudinal ground vibrations agitate
particles in a forward and back motion progressing outward from the source of
vibration

IDX/QAP/MS/VM
The parameter that is used in the assessment of vibration is based on the

vectorial sum of vibration in the three orthogonal axes, termed peak particle
velocity (mm/s ppv)
4.0 Methodology
a) Conduct sensor check using internal check facilities prior to measurement. Set
up the Vibration Meter by mounting the tri-axial sensors in the soil, pointing to
the sources of vibration.
b) The location of the sensor should be installed near the bridge structure. There
should be no obstacles along side the perimeter involved. The radius shall not
beyond 200 meter from the sensor's location and point of observation.
c) Three vibration readings will be taken simultaneous which is vertical,

transverse and longitudinal.
d) After certain predetermined duration the vibration readings will be stored in
the memory of the vibration meter which can be retrieved for data processing
using vibration software.
5.0 Data Processing
The test report shall consist of
i) Site name, client and test agency
ii) Distance from activity.
iii) Location of monitoring.
iv) Peak particle velocity, peak acceleration, and peak displacement in all
three planes.
Specific job objectives need to be addressed during the interpretation and
result evaluation. Any peculiar findings shall be highlighted and reported
during the study. Clear statement of limitation and difficulties faced during
various stages of testing shall also be reported.
6.0 Reporting
The test report shall consists on:

7.0 Limitations
The test cannot provide data about the maximum vibration that can occur as
the test provides result for the loading imposed on the location during testing
procedure. This test enables evaluation of more specific strength parameters
only when used in conjunction with other tests. Location and time specific
damping can affect the results of the test. Displacement evaluated and
maximum frequencies are evaluated during separate tests and if the loading
is not same the result could vary.

4.1 SITE PREPARATION
The platform shall be prepared to the required platform level and it
shall be reasonably firm, flat and accessible. Proper drainage
systems shall be provided and a pump sump shall be constructed, if
necessary. A proper access road shall be established prior to the
construction works to allow un-obstructed flow of traffic for
concrete trucks during bore pile casting and for exporting of bore
pile spoil (excavated earth). During the commencement of work, a
steel plate will be placed over the platform to ensure the stability of
the boring plant of top of the platform.
4.2 ADDITIONAL S.I
Before commencement of any boring works, the S.I data must be
obtained for each point involved to determine the hard layer
(N>50). This data will be required to ensure the drilling progress
works well without any obstruction. Modification to the drilling
procedure will be decided once the hard layer is determined.
4.3 SETTING OUT
The contractor shall provide a surveyor for setting out of the pile
points. 2 offset peg will be prepared for each pile points. The pile
points should be set-out as shown in the Construction Drawings.
Attention shall be paid for raking piles and shall be set-out in
accordance to the inclination required in the Construction
Drawings.
4.4 BORING PLANT
The boring plant intended to be used for the site is a Mechanical
Boring Rig Model CMV TRM 35/21 mounted on a 38RB base crane or
equivalent. A telescopic kelly bar of external dimension 400mm
diameter and 4 x 12 metre length is mounted on the boring plant.
The lower end of this Kelly bar is adaptable to other drilling tools,
e.g augers, coring buckets, cleaning buckets, etc.
Before any commencement of work, documentation such as boring
plant catalogue, PMA and operator certificate will be submitted to
client for approval.
4.5 POSITIONING OF BORING PLANT
The boring plant will be moved to the pile point intended for
excavation. The kelly bar mounted with an auger is placed just
above the pile point. The verticality of the kelly bar shall be
checked by means of a spirit level. Adjustment should be made so
as to enable the kelly bar to be as vertical as possible. Then the
position of the auger is checked against the pile point. Adjustment
shall be made so that the centre of the auger is nearest to the pile
point. The auger is then lowered and boring operation commences.
Reasonable care shall be taken so that the pile position and
verticality are constructed within the specified tolerance. The
maximum permitted tolerance shall be 75 mm from the pile
position and the verticality shall not exceed 1 in 75.

METHOD STATEMENT
( INTERIM )
4.6 BORING
Boring commence after the position of the boring plant is checked.
Usually, an auger of the required size is used to excavate the hole.
During excavation, the hole shall be observed for its stability. If the
excavated hole is collapsible, a temporary casing of the same size
shall be installed using a vibro-hammer, to prevent collapse.
Excavation of the hole then continues until the required depth.
When rock is encountered during the excavation (usually observed
by the difficulty in advancing the excavation) other drilling tools
may be utilised. A rock auger, coring bucket, chisel or a
combination of these tools may be used to break up the rock.
After reaching the required depth, a cleaning bucket shall be used
to clean up the bottom of the borehole. A joint measurement of the
depth shall be made before lowering of the reinforcement and
concreting.
4.7 REINFORCEMENT
Reinforcement for the bored piles shall be pre-fabricated in the
reinforcement yard (near the piling platform) and lifted to the
borehole for placing, using a service crane. After fabrication by the
bar benders, the helical links will be tack welded to the main
reinforcement. Laps are also to be welded sufficiently so that they
remain intact during transportation and handling. 100mm diameter
round spacers will be welded to the reinforcement to provide the
cover to ther reinforcement against the soil during concreting.
4 numbers of sonic logging pipes with 50mm diameter and 6 meter
length will be tack welded to the main reinforcement. Each length
will be jointed by another 6 meter length sonic logging pipes until it
reaches the bottom of the hole. The opening of sonic logging pipe
must be located exactly above the cut-off level (on the same level
as platform level) and be cleared from any debris or blockage by
any means necessary.
The reinforcement will be lowered into the completed borehole,
prior to concreting, by means of a service crane and to be adjusted
to the correct level.
4.8 CONCRETING
Concreting shall commence immediately after the reinforcement is
placed.
Concrete shall be supplied by ready-mixed truck to the pile
positions. The concrete slump to be used shall depend on the
method of concreting, as below.
The tremie pipe shall be extended to the bottom of the excavation.
The tremie pipe shall at all times be embedded in the concrete and
shall be withdrawn after completion of the concreting process. No
direct discharge method shall be used be the borehole is dry or
underwater to avoid segregation.

established survey data.
b) The subcontractors shall determine the side line of the structure of
offsetting from the reference points, established by the surveyor

using string lines and measuring tapes.
c) Before installation of formwork, the surveyor shall survey the level
of the lean concrete and the Engineer shall ensure that the base is
clean and level.
d) For horizontal structures, one side of the form shall be erected
initially along the stringed side line. Temporary strutts and shores
are placed to hold the form in position.
After the placement of rebar, the other side of the form shall be
e) erected. Straightness and verticality check executed and strutts
secured in placed together with horizontal braces to maintain the
required width throughout.
f) Where holes are needed in formwork to accommodate projecting

reinforcement starters, services of fixing devices, care shall be
taken to ensure that all holes or openings are plugged or blocked to
prevent the loss of grout when concreting or damage to the
concrete surface when removing forms.
g) Before concreting, the Site Supervisor shall ensure that all forms
are thoroughly cleaned out, free from sawdust shavings, dust, mud
or other debris and deleterious matter by using appropriate tools
and equipments as follows:
i) Mud deposits on or in formwork shall be removed by brushing or
Page 50 of 59

water jet as required.

ii) Sawdust shavings, dust or loose particles and matters can be moved
to a corner using a compressor. These can be removed by sweeping
into a bin if a hatch opening is provided for.
h) The formwork face in contact with the concrete shall be coated with
a suitable mould oil or approved release agent. Such oils or release

agents shall not come into contact with the reinforcement.
METHOD STATEMENT
( INTERIM )
i) All forms shall be formally inspected by the Engineer after

preparation and prior to placing of concrete as per Pre-Concreting
Checklist. No placing of concrete shall be commenced until the
formwork has been approved.
4.6 STRIKING OF FORMWORK
a) The Sub-contactors shall liase with the Engineer to obtain approval
before striking any formwork and to conduct inspection after
striking of forms as per Post Concreting Checklist.
b) The removal shall be done in such a manner as not to damage the
concrete and shall take place at times to suit the requirements for
its curing.
c) Where it is intended that forms are to be reused, it shall be cleaned
and made good to the approval of the S.O's representative.
4.7 PREPARATION FOR CONCRETING
Upon completion of the formwork, reinforcement and all associated
a) builder's works in connection with the Mechanical, Electrical and
other related services the Supervisor shall undertake a preliminary
inspection to ensure that such items are complete and in
accordance with all controlling relevant construction drawings and
pre concreting checklists.

c) Concreting shall start fresh or from a predetermined construction
joint and shall continue uninterrupted up to the next predetermined

construction joint or completion.
d) If concreting is to commence from a construction joint, the said
joint shall be roughened before receiving fresh concrete and mortar

water must also be poured over this area.
METHOD STATEMENT
( INTERIM )
e) Placement of concrete shall be in horizontal layers and to a

compact depth not exceeding 450mm. The rate of discharge shall
be such that the concrete placement is uniform across the section
and increasing at a rate to prevent segregation of the bottom
layers.
f) Compaction shall be carried out by both hand tamping and
mechanical vibrator and shall be thoroughly worked into corners.
g) To avoid a vertical drop of concrete greater than 1.5 metres,
trunking and chutes shall be used.
h) Fresh concrete shall not be placed against in-situ concrete during
the pouring sequence within certain time limits based upon the
design mix of the concrete. No pouring of water into semi-hardness
concrete in the truck is allowed.
i) Concreting operation shall cease immediately if leaks occurs in the
formwork and shall be rectified on the spot.

j) All concrete, after it has set shall be kept continuously damp by
placing wet jute sack on top of the surface.
k) The use of any curing compound shall be subjected to the approval
of the Engineer.
4.9 CONSTRUCTION JOINTS
a) Construction joints shall be located in the positions as shown on
drawings or as required.
b) The joints shall be at right angles to the general direction of the
member and shall take due account of shear and other stresses.
c) Concrete shall not be allowed to run to a feather edge and vertical
joints shall be formed against a stop board.
4.10 TESTING OF CONCRETE WORKS
a) The indicative sampling rate shall be as follows:
- One sample per 10.0 m3 or every group of 10 batches for critical
structures such as columns, pile caps and abutment wall.
- One sample per 20.0 m3 or every group of 20 batches for slabs.
Page 52 of 59
DOCUMENT NO :
IDX/QAP/MS/STC
c)
However, for designed mix, at least four samples (12 cubes) shall
be taken of concrete on the first day of concreting for each grade of
concrete to be used in the Work, irrespective of the volume of
concrete produced or the sampling rate. Subsequent rate of
sampling shall be at least one sample from each source of
production on each day that concrete of any particular grade is
used.

METHOD STATEMENT
( INTERIM )
d) The actual rate of sampling may be increased in appropriate

circumstances e.g. for critical elements, when required by the S.O.
For each sampling, three cubes shall be made from a single sample
e) taken from a randomly selected bacth of concrete. The sample shall
be taken at the point of discharge from the mixer or, in the case of
ready mixed concrete, at the point of discharge from the delivery
vehicle.
f) All cubes shall be clearly marked with undeletable paint with the
date of casting and serial number.
A record shall be clearly kept to identify each cube by date and by
g) serial number relating to the part of the work from which they are
taken.
h) One cube from each sample batch shall be tested for the 7-day
compressive strength. The remaining two cubes from the sample
batch shall be tested for the 28-day compressive strength.
