rock in or close to the area to be excavated, that is liable to fall or otherwise
endanger the workmen on the project shall be stripped. The methods employed
shall be such as will not shatter any rock that was originally sound or safe. Any
material not required removal as contemplated therein, but which may later become
loosened or unstable shall be promptly and satisfactorily removed. The cost of such
clearing shall be deemed to have been included in the unit rates accepted under the
different terms of excavation and up to pay lines.
Before excavation of the trenches to the final slopes it is necessary that the
contractor shall first ascertain the strata classification by excavating a pilot section
and only after the strata is classified, adjust the said slopes to final designed section.
The contractor is not entitled for any extra payment on this account and the
tendered rate is deemed to be inclusive of it.
SLIPS
Every precaution shall be taken to prevent slips. But should slips occur, the slipped
material shall be removed to slopes as directed. Removal of such material shall not

The material once heaped shall be utilized as and when and where required and as
directed by the engineer-in-charge. The cost of complete item of excavation
includes the cost of re-handling of the materials so temporarily heaped and reused.
The waste materials shall be heaped in spoils banks in regular shape with suitable
slopes as directed and properly trimmed so as to present a neat appearance of that
may be wasted in other approved locations. The spoil-banks shall be located in such
a way that they will not interfere with the natural flow of the river.
The measurements shall be based on areas of cross section taken normal to the axis
of structure of its part of the original ground surface and the surface of finally
completed excavation within the pay lines, taken at every 15 meters along with axis
of structure of its part. Where there is abrupt change in depth, additional cross
section may taken at the discretion of the engineer-in-charge. Levels along the
cross section shall be taken at every 15 to 20 meters or 5 meters as per exigency of
work.
During the execution of the work, running payments for the items of the excavation
will be made to contractor at 90% of his tender rate for the item. The remaining
payments for this item will be progressively released depending upon the progress
of completion of the item of excavation. The part rate will be reviewed by the
engineer-in-charge when he feels necessary and decision of the engineer-in-charge
shall be final and binding on the contractor. During the excavation of the work,
running payment for the items of excavation will be made to the contractor on the
basis of cross sectional measurements.
After rough excavation to the required depth is completed, scaling and trimming
operations for removal of all pieces loosened during excavation of partly separated
from main rock mass by seams or cracks shall be carried our to the entire
satisfaction of the engineer-in-charge.
The finally prepared foundation shall present a rough surface in cross section to
give added resistance to sliding. All polished surfaces shall be roughened
artificially to give good bond. The surface shall be free of steep angle and the edges
of benches shall be chamfered approximately to 45 pinnacles or projections shall be
knocked off and prominent knobs flattened. Neither along the length of the dam,
nor across it, shall the foundation normally have a slope steeper than 1 vertical: 1
The finally finished foundation rock shall be tested by striking with a heavy
hammer and if any loose portion of foundation rock is revealed by a hollow sound,
it shall be excavated further (without blasting) till a clear ringing sound is obtained.
The foundation shall be kept completely de-watered till such times as would be
required for the masonry or concrete to set. The de-watering required for this
purpose is included in the each item of concrete ,Masonry , excavation &
preparation of foundation as specified herein..
The finished surface shall be thoroughly scrubbed with stiff wire brushes. The
washing and scrabbling shall be continued until deleterious material, clinging to the
surface is removed. This is indicated by the wash water in the benches becoming
clean and free from dirt. In the final clearing all water shall be removed by using
sponge so that slightest pool of water does not remain.
Before laying masonry or concrete over the finally prepared surface of the
foundation slurry of water cement ratio (0.6) by weight shall be applied on rock
surface. Over this slurry layer of cement mortar 1:3 as directed with water cement
ratio as low as practicable, should be laid to a depth of 50 mm to 70 mm. The
mortar shall be rubbed by a trowel, to ensure good adhesion.

shall be of any of the following types :- a) Wooden shuttering with steel plate
lining.
b) Steel Shuttering
I. Before placing concrete the surface shall be oiled with suitable non staining
oil such as raw linseed oil so as to prevent sticking of concrete and to facilitate
the removal of form.
II. The oil shall cover the form fully and evenly without excess over drip. Care
shall be taken to prevent oil form 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 grieves 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 placed care shall be taken to see that all forms
are in 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 complete surface so as to prevent leakage of mortar
from the concrete and to maintain accurate alignment of the surface.
IV. Form shall be left in place until their removal is authorized and shall then be
removed with care so as to avoid injury to concrete.
V. Removal of form shall never be started until the concrete is thoroughly set and
hardened adequately to carry its own weight, besides the live load which is
likely to come on the work during construction. 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 and position of the structure or
structural member and the mature and amount of dead and live load. In normal
circumstances forms shall be strucked after the expiry of the following
periods.
In no case shall forms be removed until there is assurance that removal can be
accomplished without damaging the concrete surface. No loads will be
allowed to damage the concrete surface. Heavy load shall not be permitted
until after the concrete has reached its designed strength. The forms shall be
removed with great caution and without harming the structure or throwing
heavy forms upon the floor.
C1.11: MIXING

mixing of each batch shall continue for about one and half to two minutes
depending upon the revolutions per minutes of the mixer and experience, after the
materials except for the full amount of water are up the mixer the minimum mixing
period specified above assumes proper control of the speed of the rotation of the
mixer and of the introduction of the materials, including water. The mixing time
shall be increased at the discretion of the engineer-in-charge when the charging
operation fail to produce concrete of the required uniformly or composition and
consistency within the batch and from batch to 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 sacrifice of needed workability and 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 in to the drum and specified quantity of water added to

compulsory excavation)
ED-B 1: SCOPE
The item of embankment shall include furnishing all tools, plants, labours and
materials required, stripping of the borrow areas, excavating the materials from the
borrow areas, conveying the same and placing the same, of the useful materials
from compulsory excavation for COT, masonry dam foundation, drains, etc. in
specified layers for embankment, including watering and mixing (or drying as the
case maybe ) and mechanical compaction to specified density and moisture content
for each type of material and performing all operations necessary and ancillary
thereto.
GENERAL
All materials required for construction of embankment, or backfill, which are not
available from the compulsory excavation (for cut off trench, masonry dam
foundations, drains, etc.) shall be obtained from the contractors own borrow areas.
Borrows pits shall be opened at the location and to the limits, as per directions of
the engineer-in-charge. As far as practicable the borrow areas going under
submergence on up-stream side shall be tacked first. The contractor is expected to
have his own prospecting carried out before tendering for the works. The data
presented therein are to be taken only as guidance and no claims shall be
entertained in further due to lack of conformity between the natures and quantity of
material actually met with during construction.
Before any borrow area is opened the material from the borrow area to be used in
particular zone of the earth dam should be got approved from Engineer-in-charge.
Before opening of borrow area from where the material is to be obtained, the area
shall be cleared off all trees, stumps, etc. and stripped to remove the top soil,
humus, vegetable matter organic matter, roots, rubbish, and all other objectionable
material which is unsuited for the purpose for which the borrow pits to be
excavated. All such materials shall be removed to such disposal areas as directed by
the Engineer-in-charge. In no case shall the stripped material be allowed to
contaminate the material going into the embankment. All trees cut shall be the
property of Government and shall be stacked at suitable place as directed by the
Engineer-in-charge.
The rate for embankment including use of material from borrow areas includes the
clearing and stripping the borrow areas and disposing the waste material as
directed. The cleared and stripped areas shall be maintained free from vegetable
growth adequately and drained during the progress of work, without any extra cost.
A. Where the borrow pits are opened adjacent to the dam, the edge of excavation
shall be at a distance of five times of the height of the dam opposite as
measured above the top level of edge of excavation to the top of the dam
subject to the minimum distance of 100 meters from the toes of the dam.
B. Where no positive cut off is provided, care shall be taken to see that no
previous strata are uncovered by excavation of borrow pits on the water side
of the dam within a distance of ten times the height of the drain as measured
from the upstream toe of the dam.
F. All borrow areas shall be arranged with certain amount of regularity having
regard to the convenience of the work during excavation and to its safety and
appearance of finish after its completion.

QUARRY ROADS
Temporary path to and fro borrow areas including river and nalla crossings (to the
site of embankment where the materials are required to be deposited) shall be
constructed and maintained by the contractor at his own cost.
During the construction the contractor may after careful prospecting and with the
specific written approval of the Executive Engineer bring suitable material from
Borrow areas at his own cost. No extra payment for increase in lead or any other
reason would be admissible .
ED-B 3: SELECTION OF MATERIALS
I. The borrow pit materials or the material from compulsory excavation shall be
got classified from engineer-in-charge with regard to its suitability for the
particular zone in the dam. The standard of material required for various zone
in the dam i.e. filling of the cut of trench, hearting, casing zone shall be as
directed by the engineer-in-charge. The classification by the engineer-in-
charge shall be final and binding on the contractor.
B) CASING
All materials shall be free from organic material and should contain
coarse grained material, the suitability being conformed by laboratory
tests. Normally the material should not contain boulders or stone larger
than ¾ the size of thickness of the compacted layer, when compacted the
material should be fairly pervious. The permeability of the compacted
casing zone, as determined by the methods deemed fit by the engineer-
in-charge, be about 104 cm/s (100 feet per year) or as specified by the
engineer-in-charge.
The embankment shall be constructed to the lines and grades shown on the
drawings. The slopes of the division lines between zones or portions of
embankment are tentative land shall be subject to variation at any time prior to or
during construction and on account of this the contractor shall be entitled to no
additional allowance above the unit price accepted. No roots, vegetable matter,
hums or other unsuitable material shall be placed in the embankment. The
contractor shall maintain the embankment in an approved manner until the final
completion and acceptance of all of the work under the contractor. Care shall be
taken to drain all rain water falling on the rolled surface away beyond the dam toe
lines. The embankment for each portion shall maintain approximately level but it is
necessary to have slopes. The slope should not be steeper than 1:2.0 (vertical to
horizontal). All openings or gaps through the embankment required for
constructions purpose shall be subject to approval and such openings or gaps if
approved shall be constructed so that the slope of the bonding surface between
embankment in place and embankment to be placed is not steeper than 1:4 (vertical
to Horizontal). The suitability of each part of the foundation for placing
embankment materials thereon and of all the materials for use embankment
construction will be determined by the engineer-in-charge. The material shall be
placed in layers and compacted. If the rolled surface is very uneven containing
hollows and humps, the hollows shall be filled up and surface rolled before any
fresh layer is taken.
REFERENCE POINT
Before commencing the placement, all lines marking the extremities of berm,
hearting casing zones, filter etc. of the embankment shall be marked with reference
to reference pillars. The reference pillars shall be of concrete or masonry and the
information indication chainage levels etc. shall be properly inscribed or written on
them as directed by the engineer-in-charge the contractor shall construct and
maintain all reference pillars. No extra payment is admissible to the contractor on
this account.
A. GENERAL
No material shall be placed in any section of the dam until the foundation of
that section has been dewatered and suitably prepared and has been approved
Signature of Contractor No. Of Corrections EE&DWCO
181
The seat of the dam after it is stripped shall be cleared off all loose or
objectionable material before placing any layer. The surface shall than be
watered and rolled as directed if the surface material in not compact enough.
The surface shall then be scarified by the sloughing or by harrows or by rake
or by any suitable method, all clods broken and then it shall be moistened
liberally but not more than 2% on wet side of optimum unless the foundation
material already contains optimum of moisture before the first layers is
placed.
C. ROCK FOUNDATION
Any steps of large depression of humps caused by abrupt change in level shall
be veiled out to fine slope and the removal of rock will be paid under item of
excavation. If necessary the surface shall be roughened by shallow
longitudinal trenchers of corrugations cut in the rock and the removal of rock
will be paid under the item of excavation. The rock surface including all
pockets or depression shall be carefully cleaned of soil of rock fragments
before placing of the first layer. Dikes and seams of soft material shall be
opened out, cleaned to the depth as directed and filled with selected
impervious material or lean concrete as directed by the engineer-in-charge.
The foundation surface shall be moistened out no standing water shall be
permitted when the first layer is placed. The rock surface after moistening
shall be given slurry wash, and immediately after the wash (so as not allowing
it to dry) first layer of soil will be placed.
If exposed surface is very rough and uneven, so as to preclude the use of power
operated rollers and equipment it shall be brought to an even, surface by filling the
hollows and depressions in layers not more than 100 mm thick with moist well
soaked soil, having moistures content equal to standard proctor optimum moisture
of dry weight of soil, and compacting the same by hand, pneumatic or mechanical
tampers.
The treatment of the surface in the case before a fresh layer is placed will be
the same as for the foundation other than rock. Over-compacted portions of
embankment formed due to constant traffic which and likely to separate from
the layers below shall be entirely removed without any extra cost. When
smooth rollers are used for compaction, the surface of a compacted layer shall
be scarified or roughened before fresh layer is laid out on it. When sheep foot
rollers are used for compactions fresh layer may be directly laid on the
previously laid surface. Water shall be sprinkled on the previous layer unless
the material in the surface is sufficiently wet in case it contains moisture more
than OMC due to rain, etc it shall be allowed to dry to have optimum moisture
and rolled again.
It should be seen that no hollow side ways are left. Also all projections shall
be trimmed before placing embankments against rock abutments or sides or
rock cuttings the same shall be trimmed to ½:1 slope, preferably 1:1 slope and
then thoroughly washed with mud slurry and selected moist soil laid against
the same until the mud wash is still wet. The moist soil laid against rock
surface shall be compacted with hand reamers or air operated reamers. Soil
with moisture content equal to OMC+2% of dry weight of soil will be used for
this portion.
a) Approved material free from clods and lumps, large than 50 mm size
shall be conveyed directly from source of excavation or form stock piles
and laid in appropriate zones of embankment as directed by the
Engineer-in-charge, on surface of the foundation of previously laid earth
work prepared as specified. The material shall then be spread on the
embankment in uniform and continuous layer approximately horizontal
unless earth work in slope has been permitted or specified.
b) The thickness of layers will depend on the nature of materials and the
type of compacting machinery. The thickness of layer should be such
that desired density after compaction shall be uniformly obtained through
the depth. For the guidance of the contractor it may be stated that the
thickness of the layer shall be 20 to 23 cm loose and 15 cm compacted
for sheep foot rollers, 15 to 11 cm loose and 11 cm compacted for
smooth wheeled rollers and 8 cm Loose and 5 cm compacted by hand or
pneumatic or mechanical tampers. The thickness of the 1 compacted
layers will be found out by taking levels after every three (or less number
if necessary) layers laid and compacted and finding out the average. The
layer shall be spread in uniform width and in stages to facilitate
compaction by rollers. The work in various zones all as far as possible be
raised simultaneously. If however any zone or its part is permitted by the
engineer-in-charge to be raised higher than the part adjacent to it, the
loose density without extra cost as directed by the Engineer-in-charge. A
minimum slope of 2:1 should be provided at such junction and vertical
difference between such two junctions should not be more than 1.5
meters.
e) The Engineer-in-charge may designate the location in the earth fill where
the individual loads shall be deposited. The most imperious materials
shall be placed in the central upstream portion of the earth fill and the
more previous materials shall be placed on either side of it so that
permeability of the fill will be gradually increased towards the upstream
and down stream edge of the fill when materials differ in dry density but
have about the same permeability the material having the greater density
should be placed in the other section of the zone of the dam as the case
my be.
the earth fill but before materials in the earth fill are wasted as approved
and directed by the Engineer-in-charge.
MOISTURE CONTENT
a) The water content of the earth fill material prior to and during compaction
shall be distributed uniformly throughout each layer of the material. The
difference, (W0-W) where W0 is optimum moisture content as determined by
the standard proctor compaction test expressed as percent of dry weight of soil
shall be as follows :-
ii. (W-W0) to be -3% to + 3% in the case of the remaining 10% and 25%
samples. The standard proctor compaction tests will be made by the
Department from time to time. The material shall be brought to the
proper water content by adding necessary amount of water or allowing
moisture to evaporate either at the borrow pit or on the dam before
commencing compaction of layers. When water is proposed to be added
at the embankment, the required amount of water to be sprinkled for
given quantity of soil, shall be first calculated making due to allowances
for natural moisture, constant evaporation, base watering etc. This
calculated quantity of water shall than be thoroughly mixed with the soil
by means of dish arrow or any other suitable method before compaction.
All charges for watering and mixing are included in the item of
embankment including pumping, transporting, pipe lines etc., as
necessary.
b) It may be necessary to allow the water to soak into the soil after spreading and
mixing if necessary for sufficient time to have uniform moisture throughout
the layer. The contractor shall not get any extra payment for stoppage of work
necessitated for allowing soaking of the soil.
Signature of Contractor No. Of Corrections EE&DWCO
185
c) Water contained in soil to be laid to fill hollows in rock foundation and rock
abutment and near sides in rock cutting will be specified under the
specifications for preparation of foundation (OMC+2 percent of dry weight of
soil). The same moisture content shall be adhered to in case of filling at the
sides of COT filling and filling around masonry structures.
COMPACTIONS
C. In the parts of dam inaccessible to the specified rolling equipment such as test
pits or trial pits below foundation level, irregular sides of cut-off-trench and
portions around and in contact with the structures where the rolling equipment
will not be permitted to operate, compaction shall be accomplished with either
hand or mechanical tampers of approved type. Rollers will not be permitted to
operate within 0.50 meter of concrete or masonry structures and the filling
within this distance shall be tamped by hand and a mechanical tampers. All
materials to be tamped shall be spread in layers with thickness as specified.
The moisture content of material and the degree of compaction shall be equal
to that specified separately. Special care as directed shall be exercised to
obtain a good contact and good bond with rock surfaces of masonry or
concrete.
DEGREE OF COMPACTION
I. This will be based on the dry densities achieved which shall satisfy following
criteria.
III. In case of the material compacted by tampers the dry density of the soil
fraction in the compacted material shall not be less than 95% of the standard
proctor Optimum Dry density.
IV. In rare cases, when a layer with necessary moisture content gives lower
density than specified in the above table even rolling large No of passed or
after rerolling, such a layer may be approved at the engineer-in-charge
provided (a) the placement Dry density is not less than 90% of the standard
proctor Dry Density and (b) Number of such samples having PDD less than
95% ODD should not exceed 2% of the number of samples taken.
At the end chainages, if the work will be done by other agencies, then at such
junctions the earth work will be done as follows:-
EITHER
a) If the work of both agencies is at the same level, the rolling will be done 2
meters beyond the end of chainage and no extra payment will be paid for the
same.
OR
b) If the work of other agency is at lower level, the work will be done with an
outer slope of 1:4 with an extra length of half meter parallel to the dam
alignment.
The earth work in this extra length will not be paid for.
Signature of Contractor No. Of Corrections EE&DWCO
188
There will be some reduction in the quantity of earth work. No claim by the
contractor on this account will be entertained.
OR
c) If the work of other agency is at higher level that agency will construct the
bank with an outer slope. The contractor will have to do the earth work up to
that slope throughout beyond the end changed stated in the tender. The
quantity of earth work increased due this will be paid for at the same rates
quoted by the contractor and no claims will be entertained for the extra work
to be done.
Some piezonmatric installation, settlement gauges and stand pipes etc. will be
provided by the department at predetermined position in the earthen embankment
of dam. The work will be done by the Department, which will require some time
for installations and erections. During such installations and erections the work of
length of the embankment in the vicinity of installation will be held up for sum
time. The rate of earth work shall be deemed to have been quoted considering such
breaks and no claims by contractor on the ground of breaks occurred for such
installations, will be entertained. The earthwork and the traffic of construction
equipments in the vicinity of such installation shall be arranged as not to cause any
damage to the instruments installed or being installed and shall be arranged as
directed by engineer-in-charge.
Unit rate given in Schedule “B” includes the rate for field test necessary for quality
control of work. The contractor shall arrange for Laboratory equipment for all
moisture content compaction and field density test or other tests as directed. He
shall also arrange laboratory personnel for taking given test strictly under the
supervision of site in charge. All cost towards testing at prescribed frequency shall
be deemed to be included in unit rate.
