permitted. All forms shall be checked for shape and strength before reuse

by Engineer-in-charge or his representative.

12.2 Erection and removal of forms: Before placing concrete the surface of all forms be oiled with suitable non

staining oil such as raw linseed oil so as to prevent sticking of concrete and

facilitate the removal of forms for use on wood form. The oil should be

capable of penetrating the wood forms and of remaining sufficiently oily to

eliminate sticking of and preventing absorption of water and consequent

warping. The oil shall cover the form fully and evenly without excess or drip. Care

shall be taken to prevent oil from getting to the surface of

construction joints and on reinforcement bars. Special care shall be taken

into account thoroughly of the form stripes for narrow grooves so as to

prevent swelling of the forms. Immediately before concrete is placed,

precautions shall be taken to see that all forms are in proper alignment and

that, angles and tees are thoroughly secure and tight. Where forms for

continuous surface are placed in successive units the form shall fit tightly

over the completed surface so as to prevent leakages of mortar from the

concrete and to maintain accurate alignment of surface.

12.3 Removal of Form: Removal of form shall never be started until the concrete thoroughly sets

and harden adequately to carry its own weight, besides their live load which

is likely to come on the work during construction. The length of time for

which the forms remain in place shall be decided by the Engineer-in-charge

with reference to weather conditions, shape and position of the structure or

134


structural member and the nature and amount of dead and live loads. In

normal circumstances, form shall be struck after the expiry of the following

periods.

A) Beam sides wall columns (Un loaded) 72 Hrs.

B) Slabs and arches (Props left under) 4 days

C) Props to slabs and arches 10 days

D) Beam soffit (Props left under) 1 day

E) Props to Beams 21 days

F) Lean concrete (Side) 2 days

In no case shall forms be removed until there is assurance that removal can be

accomplished without damaging the concrete surface. No load will be

allowed to damage concrete surface. Heavy load shall not be permitted until

after the concrete reaches its designed strength. The form shall be removed

with great caution and without injuring the structure or throwing heavy

forms upon the floor.

13.0 Classification of form work:

Straight and Plane :

This category shall include which can be formed by use of plain panels. Curved in one direction :

This category shall include which can be formed by use of straight

planks or battens for works such as roof of gallery or pier cut water. Curve in more than one direction :

This category shall include such curved surfaces as cannot be included

in category above.

14.0 Steel for reinforcement:

Tor steel reinforcement bars for R.C.C work shall confirm to I.S. 432 :

required at the end of anchor bar, if required. It also includes welding of

reinforcing bars where directed or permitted by the Engineer-in-charge.

14.2 Supply:

The reinforcing steel shall be supplied by the contractor. 14.3 Bar Bending Schedule: The department will indicate the design requirements of reinforcement steel

for the different components. The contractor shall prepare the bar bending

schedule from those design statements showing the details of bends, cracks

and splices provided by him for all the bars to be placed and get them

approved from the Engineer-in-charge. The

schedule shall be presented for approval well in advance of the laying of

the reinforcement. 14.4 Cleaning :-

Before steel reinforcement is placed in position the surface of these

reinforcement bars shall be cleaned of rust scale, dirt, grease or other

objectionable deleterious foreign substances, heavy flaky rust and mill scale

that can be removed by firm rubbing with burlap or equivalent treatment.

The fact that early stage rust has no detrimental effect on

bond hence could be disregarded shall not be accepted an excuse for careless

handling and storages of steel.

14.5 Distance between Reinforcement bars :-

14.5.1 The distance between two parallel reinforcement bars shall be extended as

provided below in 5.2 not less than the greatest of the following distances. a) The dia of the either bar if their diameters be equal.

done in such a manner that it will be covered immediately with casing material if

included in the tender and will not remain half-way by the end of season so as not to

get damaged during monsoon. The ring bund for ughadi in constructed upto high

tide level with locally available impervious clay, measurements shall be taken after

completion of bund but paid after construction of ughadi is completed. The

maintenance of bund during the construction to the designed section is sole

responsibility of the contractor. Mode of Measurement and Payment :- The running bills will be paid on the basis of actual cross sections taken at 30m or closer

interval as may be necessary as per the site conditions restricted to designed section.

All running bills will be paid at 90 % as part rate and the same 10 % will be released

at the time of final bill provided all other items such as casing pitching and other

related items of the bank work, if any are completed satisfactorily. In case of failure

to do so the quantity arrived at after due deduction for shrinkage will be considered for

final payment and paid at 90 % reduced rate. The final measurements will be based on the basis of actual cross sections taken,

restricted to designed sections, the contract rate shall be for one cum of finished

bank work. The deduction for shrinkage would be made from the computed quantity at

15 % if the measurements are taken during the same working season and at 10 % if

the measurements are taken after passing of one monsoon. The ring bund for sluice gate shall be constructed up to high tide level (Plus) 0.30

suitable panels on the faces to approve design with compacting , vibrating

and curing complete including formwork ,centering,(Excluding

dewatering by means of pump ) and bailing out water and curing etc.

complete.

1.Scope:-

The work covered by this item shall consist of furnishing all material

Equipments and labour for the manufacture transport, placing and curing of

concrete and performing all the functions necessary and ancillary thereto

including finishing of the surface to the required specificationProviding fixing

and removing formwork is also included unless otherwise specified.

2.Mixing :-

The ingredients of concrete shall be properly mixed designed so as to

positively ensure uniform distribution of all the component materials

throughout the mass at the end of the mixing period. The mixing of each batch

shall continue for about one and half to two minutes or as found best in

practice after all materials except 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 when the

charging operation fails to produce the required uniformity to composition art

consistency within the batch and form batch. Excessive mixing requiring the

addition of the water to preserve the required concrete consistency shall be

avoided. If the mixing arise charging operations arc such that the required

uniformity of the concrete is obtained in the short mixing time may be

shortened ads directed by the Engineer – in charge. Mixing shall be done by

Chemical means only.

3.The following Generals Principles shall be followed in operation of mixing.

The ingredients shall be fed into the mixer simultaneously.

A portion of water ( between 5 and 10 percent ) shall precede and in equal

quantity shall follow introduction of the other materials.

The reminder the water shall be added uniformity and simultaneously with

other materials. Care shall be taken that mixing of concrete in the mixer shall

be uniform.

147


4. Placing of Concrete :-

Concrete shall be placed only –in location where authorized and no concrete of

mortar shall be placed until formwork, installation of embedded parts,

preparation of surfaces or masonry clean –up has been done and approved.

Rock surface/rigid masonry or concrete surface upon or against which concrete

is to be placed shall be prepared in the same manner as in rock foundations or

old masonry for concrete surface with reference to relevant specifications for

preparation of foundations and starting masonry over old masonry.

Before starting the placing of concrete it should be made certain that the

transporting and placing equipment is clean and in good condition and that the

equipments along with the operation staff is arranged to deliver to concrete in

the final position without undue delay and objectionable segregation .If

concrete is to be placed at right adequate lighting arrangements as directed by

the Engineer – in Charge shall be made. The concrete shall be such as will

permit the delivery of the concrete of the required consistency into the work

without objectionable segregation porosity of excessive or less workability.

All concrete shall be placed in the final position within 30 minutes after being

mixed. Excessive segregation from what ever cause shall be inanities in

handling and placing operation by avoiding or controlling lateral movement of

the concrete as on dumping at an angle or depositing continuously at one point

and allowing the concrete to flow. Concrete shall not be dropped from

excessive heights and the free fall shall be kept minimum. All surfaces of form

and metal work including reinforcement bar that have become encrusted with

dried mortar or grout from concrete previously placed shall be cleaned of all

such mortar or grout before surrounding or adjacent concrete is placed.

Concrete shall be deposited in continuous horizontal layers of 15 cm .to 20

cms. The layers being decided by the time lapse between successive layers.

The time of laying one layer shall not exceed 30 minutes .When work is to be

resumed on a surface which has hardened such a surface shall be roughened

and scrubbed with brushes to remove laitance, care being taken to avoid

dislodgement of coarse aggregate ,swept lean ,thoroughly wetted and covered

with 6mm (about 14” thick mortar layer composed of cement and sand in the

same proportion as the cement & sand in the concrete immediately before

commencement of concrete, for securing good bond.

5. Embedded parts and installation in concrete :-

All embedded metal work in concrete shall be installed without any extra

payment except when otherwise specified.

6. Concreting during rains :-

148


When concreting is required to be done or continued when it is raining , it

shall be seen that the concrete is not damaged due to rain while it is being

transported and placed. The green concrete shall be adequately covered with

suitable covering ,suitable after placing for a period of 24 hours when it will be

capable of being cured by splash of water. The surface of fresh concrete should

be maintained on a slope sufficient to result in the self –drainage of the rain

water. The work shall however be discontinued when the rain is too severe that

water collects in pools or mashes the surface of the fresh concrete and is ot

feasible to provide adequate shelter.

7. Tests. for cement concrete.

Crushing Strength :- The compression test of concrete shall be made 15 cms.

cubes. Concrete cube shall be taken immediately after it has been placed on

the work. Whenever this is not possible , sample shall be taken s the concrete

is being placed to obtain a representative sample. A sufficient number of

samples each large enough to make one test cube shall be taken at different

points so that the test cube made from them will be representative of the

concrete placed in that portion of structure for test. The one set of test cubes

not be less than 3 numbers per set for 20 cum each of concrete placed after

proper curing for 7 days and 28 days respectively. These shall be tested and

should give compressive strengths of 100 kgs./Sq.Cm. respectively for nominal

mix of (1:3:6).However 5% variation in the strength is permissible.

If the test results show that the concrete blocks give results below the specified

strength, such bad quality of concrete shall be removed and redone by the

contractor at his own cost.

8. Slump Test :-

In order to test the consistency of the mixed concrete, slump test shall have to

be made by the contractor when and where required by the Engineer – In

Charge . The slump test shall be carried out as per I.S.Specifications ,BR27.4 .

9. Rate of Placing :-

Concreting should continue without avoidable interruption or until the section

of structure is completed or until satisfactory construction joints can be made.

Concrete shall not be placed faster than the placing crew can compact it

property. In placing thin members and columns precaution shall be taken

against too rapid placement which may result in movement or failure of the

form due to excessive lateral pressure. An interval of at least 12 hours and

preferably 21 hours should elapse between the completion of columns and

walls and the placing of slabs, beams, or grinders supported by thick in order to

avoid cracking due top settlement. All concrete shall be laced in approximately

horizontal lifts exceeding 1.2m in height in one day.

149


10. Compaction :-

All concrete shall be vibrated by mechanical vibrators of an approved type so

as to ensure dense concrete hand tamping ,rodding shall not be used for

compaction of concrete except in special circumstances when permitted by the

Engineer in Charge .When impression type vibrators are used they shall be

used vertically at about 45 cms. apart. The vibrator shall be inserted into the

full depth of the newly laid concrete layer. The vibrator shall not be however

revibrate in concrete which has commenced his final set. Special care shall be

taken to see that the vibrator touching the reinforcement or embedded pats do

not disturb the concrete below which has comme4nced his final set . The

concrete shall not be vibrated excessively so as to cause segregation.

Each layer of concrete and specially where smooth surface are required

and for all surface which are permanently exposed to the weather and for all

surfaces next to embedded metal work shall be worked and vibrated by

vibrators of approved type to obtain concrete of maximum density and

imperviousness and to assure close contact of the concrete with forms

reinforcement bars and other embedded parts. If the method of transporting and

placement have been conducive to air entrainment segregation or stiffening ,

the work of compacting should receive special attention .

For concrete surfaces to be exposed to high velocities of water special

precautions shall be taken to minimize and to prevent surface splitting and

protrusions without sorting to over manipulation of the concrete mix to the

forms. No plastering for getting a smooth finish shall be permitted on these

locations. Any protrusions shall be ground smooth.

11. Finishing :-

Finishing of uniformed surfaces shall be performed only by skilled

workman. All exposed concrete surface shall be cleaned of all

incrustations of cement mortar or grout and unsightly stains shall be

removed.

12. Formed Surface :-

Surface of concrete finished against forms shall be smooth free from

projections and filled thoroughly with mortar. Immediately upon removal of

forms all unsightly ridges or fins shall be removed and any local bulging on

exposed surface shall be rectified by tooling and rubbing. All holes left by

removal of plaster ,shall after being reamed with toothed reamer, be neatly

filled with dry patching mortar. All porous & fractured concrete & surface

concrete to which additions are required to bring it to the prescribed lines shall

be removed by chiseling opening into concrete. The chipped opening shall be

sharp aged and keyed and shall be filled to required lines with fresh concrete

or dry patching mortar. Where concrete is used for filling the chipped opening,

150


these shall not be less than 75 cms. in depths and the concrete filling shall be

reinforced and be leveled so surface of the openings

13. Dry Batching :-

Dry batching concrete shall consist of one part of the cement and two parts of

sand by volumes and just enough water so that the mortar used will stick

together on being molded into a ball by slight pressure of the hand and will

not exude, water when so pressured but will leave hands damp. The mortar

shall be placed in layers of not more than 2.5 cms. thickness. After being

compacted , each layer shall be roughened by scratching , to provide an

effective bond with the successive layers. The last or finishing layer shall be

smooth to form a surface continuance with surroundings concrete .All patches

shall be blended thoroughly to the surface to that the chipped openings and

shall be

sound and free from shrinkage or cracks.

14. Finishing permanently exposed surfaces :-

Except or otherwise specified or directed all permanently exposed concrete

surface and other waterway surfaces requiring durability under water shall be

finished i the following manner.

Immediately upon the removal of the forms the surface shall be wetted and

all surfaces pits and air bubbles filled by rubbing mortar composed of cement

and fine sand in proportion (1:2) into the pits with burlap so as to, secure a

uniform density and smooth face. The rubbing of mortar with burlap shall be

performed in such a manner so as to leave the surface free from mortar not

needed for filling the pits. When the filling operation s be unduly delayed and

surface of pits become coated with dirt or other contaminating materials, they

shall be thoroughly cleaned and washed and shall be maintained in as moist

condition until mortar filling is placed. Such cleaning satisfactorily means of

without damaging the surrounding concrete. All operations i connection with

the filling of surface pits shall be handled as quickly as practicable to

minimize the period during which concrete and mortar filling are exposed to

drying. When the treatment of a surface has been completed the surface shall

be cured. All patches and mortar filing pits on exposed surface shall be neat

and of the same colour and texture as the adjoining concrete.

15. Finishing :-

For exterior concealed surface below ground o5 back till level or below

maximum draw down or minimum tail water or like surfacing not

otherwise specified no finish is necessary except that sand streaks gravel

pockets , honey combing or other imperfections which are of consequences

151


affecting strength . water tightness or protection of enforcing steel from

corrosion shall be corrected and repaired as prescribed for formed surface.

16. Finishing :-

Uniformed surface shall be finished by one or more of the operations of

screening floating, toweling and work of the surface should be done at proper

time in employing experienced men and should be sufficient to produce the

desired finish. Screening which gives the surface its approximate shape by

striking off surplus concrete immediately after completions shall be

accompanied by moving a straight edge or template with a sawing motion

across wood or metal strips that have been established as guides. Where the

surface is curved a special screen should be

Shortly after the concrete is screened the surface should be brought true to

form and grade by working in sparingly with a wooden float. If a coursed

textured finish is desired or if the surface is to be steel trawled a second or final

floating should be performed after some stiffening has occurred and the

surface insure film or shine has disappeared. Where a smooth dense finish is

desired floating shall be followed by steel trowelling sometime after moisture

films or shine has disappeared from the floated surface and when the concrete

has hardened sufficiently to prevent fine material and water from being

worked out to the surface. Excessive trowelling particularly that too at an early

stage shall be avoided.
