OUR shall locate and layout the plate form / concrete pad in MAGNA accordance with the

drawings and MAGNA accordance with the contracting officer Representative direction /approval prior to excavation and construction. The excavation and grading shall be done

MAGNA according to the below procedure.

Excavation:

The following aspects shall be given to the excavation during the construction of the faculties.

The excavation shall be done along the profile with width and depth as per drawing.

The bottom level of excavation for foundation of reinforced concrete shall be properly

leveled.

Foundation excavation shall extend an adequate distance from both sides to allow forplacing and removal of forms.

The surface water shall direct away from the excavation to prevent erosion and

undermining the foundation by constructing diversion ditches.

The excavation shall be excavated MAGNA according to the technical requirements of the

scope of work and statement of work.

Grading:

The grading shall be done after the excavation of foundation: the sub grade shall be of compacted soil95 %.

Placing of Concrete:


16/47

Add: 6th





For the placing and working of concrete the following specification and description shall beconsidered during the construction of concrete structures. The MAGNA concrete strength shall

be 3000 psi for the construction of foundation and walls.

Ingredients of concrete:The concrete is composed of coarse aggregate, fine aggregate, cement and water. Cement acts as

binding material. ,a rock chip is used as coarse aggregates whereas sand is used as fineaggregates. Clean water is used to put all the ingredients together to form hardened concrete.

Quality of concrete will depend on the quality of its ingredients.

Rock Chips:

Rock chips are the main constituents of concrete and MAGNAupy the bulk volume of concrete.

The following are the desired qualities of aggregates:

Aggregates shall be of desired size.

All aggregates must clean and free from foreign particles.

All aggregates must be hard and its strength must be desired value. Aggregates must be well graded.

Send

The following are the desired qualities of sand:

Sand as fine aggregates must clean and free form foreign particles

Sand must be well graded

Finances modulus of sand must be of desired value.

Cement:Cement is the binding material for the ingredients of concrete. Ordinary Portland cement shall be

used in Afghanistan the Cherat Pakistan made cement gave very god result and used widely.Cement is generally tested before use and the tests are:

Fineness

Setting time

Compressive test

Water:Water for mixing concrete should have the following qualities:

Water should be free from impurities

Water should be clean

Mix Ratio:The ratio of cement, sand and aggregate will be by volume. The strength of concrete depends on

the ratio of concrete. The ratio of concrete is expressed as 1:3:6, 1:2:4 or 1:1:5:3. 1:2:4 isconsidered in most cases. For high strength of concrete 1:1:5:3 is used.

Mixed ratio is measured by standard a basket that contains a bag of cement. The size of thestandard bucket is 45cm height, 30 cm length and 30 cm width (volume 1.25 ft3 or 0.035375m)


17/47

Add: 6th





as sand increases in volume with presence of small amount of water in it, this increase of volumeof sand due to bulking of sand should be considered while volume calculation of sand. In the

case of 25 % bulking of sand, the volume of sand to be considered would be 1.25 times the

original volume.

Water Cement Ratio:

The strength of concrete depends on water cement ratio. The water content ratio is calculated on

the basis of weight of water and cement. The amount of water in concrete will be such that thefresh concrete will be workable as well as hardened concrete will have enough strength to

withstand desired loads. Excess water decreases the strength of concrete. We know one bag of

cement is 5 Kg. if its water cement ratio is 0.55. Than water will be 0.55 X 50Kg.= 27. 27.5 Kg.= 27.5 Liters.

Mixing of Concrete:

The volume of casting is comparatively smaller quantity mixing will be done by handmix: otherwise mixture machine may be use.

Mixture shall be homogenous.

5-10 % water of total volume shall be put on turning drum before cement, sand and

aggregate are applied for mixing.

Carrying and Placing of:After mixing of concrete it should be carried to the specified sites as quickly as possible. All

mixed concrete place with at final position within 45 minute. Mixed concrete shall not be placed

beyond height. Excess water should not add while placing or vibrating the concrete.

Vibration of Concrete:

Concrete should be compacted by means of vibration. It can be done by means of vibratory orpoking concrete with the help of rods .all vibration will be completed before initial setting of

time,. Vibration will compact of fresh concrete. In absence of vibrator, 16mm diameter rod canbe used as vibrator.

Curing:Curing increases the strength of concrete. Cement contains some chemical ingredient that require

to hydrolysis for chemical reaction to form a rock like substance. The reaction takes place up to

21 to 28 days. For this reason, curing of concrete is required to be done for 28 days. Curing is anenvironment that helps hydrolysis of cement. It is generally done by spreading water to the

concrete surface or covering it with wet sacks so that the water in the concrete does not

evaporate. It is generally started after 16 to 24 hour of casting.

Quality Control of Concrete:


18/47

Add: 6th





Concrete is produced from cement, coarse aggregates, fine aggregates and water. As a result,quality of concrete will depend on many factors. A few are:

Properties of the ingredients.

Proportion of ingredients.

Water Cement Ratio. Mixing, carrying, placing, compacting, curing etc.

After producing fresh concrete slump test should be performed. Slump test should be performedimmediately after collection of the sample but not later than 10 minutes after completion of

mixing. Molding of test cylinders/cubes should commence within 20 minutes after completion of

mixing.The strength requirement of concrete is given in Table below.

Strength standard deviation not exceeding: 2.1 MN/m2 (3000 PSI). Minimum three samples will

be required for testing from each batch.

Reinforcing Rod/Rein Forcemeat:The concrete can resist compression, but not tension. For this reason reinforcing rods are

provided in the concrete to sustain tension that develops in concrete. The reinforcing material ishigh strength steel wire, mild steel, high strength plastic fiber etc. the following shall consider

while checking reinforcement:

Appropriate diameter of reinforcement.

All rods shall be clean and rust free.

All rods should be straight.

Appropriate crank in rods is placed at proper place.

Length of lapping of rods is provided as per requirement.

Rods as per drawing are placed. For maintaining of clear cover chair/ space bar are provided.

Actual size of rods is used.

Rods should be uniform in size.

Rods will have desired tensile strength.

Form work:Form work is a sort of dice for reinforced concrete. It gives the shape of concrete. Any tilting

of formwork creates tilting of concrete. Formwork is done by using wooden plank or steelsheet. Formwork is designed considering the weight of wet reinforced concrete. A bamboo

post generally bears 100 kg. vertical weight. In case of wet concrete having weight of 10,000

kg. then 10 nos. of bamboo post is required to be provided.

SECURITY PLAN:

Objectives

The first and very important object we care about for safety of working site is security, and it

will always be maintained as zero errors. We will take a broad view of the security risks facing


19/47

Add: 6th





the firm and take prompt action to reduce our exposure. Everyone remembers the virus attack we

had earlier this year, and we hope to avoid any other disaster like that! However, we hope that by

taking a wider view, we are always able to plan for unknown threats.

MAGNA is taking responsibility for leading this review and ensuring that all the action items arecarried out. MAGNA concerned about the risks MAGNA face, although having reviewed the

plan, I am

sure we can address them properly. This project has my full support and is a high priority for the

business.

This security plan contains detailed technical security information about the plan, as called

security requirements, and the controls implemented to provide protection against its risks and

vulnerabilities. This security plan, at a minimum, is marked, handled, and controlled as a

sensitive document. In addition, the security plan is dated for ease of tracking modifications and

approvals.

Security Guards

MAGNA will hire one security guard for assurance of the access passes, safeguarding of un-

issued passes, and collection of passes for employees and vehicles. The security guard will use

MAGNA ID for identifying. Following is information about the numbers of guards and their

time to be on site.

Number of Guards for site: 1 person

Days/Hours Guards will be on-site: 24 hours and 7 days in weeks

Responsibilities:

Security guards shall record vehicle license plate information when the hours of operationhave ceased, and save the information for a minimum of 90 days.

Security guard shall check and control all the labors in the entry control point, during theentering to the project site, and let them if they have their ID cards.

Security guard shall control all the labors inside the compound in order not to enter thesite where MAGNA does not have planned to work.

Security guard shall check all the trucks and vehicles those are related to the project ofMAGNA during the entering to the construction site, and the trucks and vehicles will be

allowed after the checking of permission cards. Security guard is responsible for physical security of materials, supplies, and equipments. In case of any security problem, the security guard shall inform immediately the project

manager or any acting manger on site.

MAGNA security plan will cover all the elements issued of the access passes, safeguarding ofun-issued passes, construction security operations, lost passes, temporary vehicle passes, andcollection of passes for employee's and vehicles on:

1) Temporary absence;

In case of temporary absence of any worker, MAGNA investigating team will investigate andfind the causes of temporary absence of the workers. And this whole process with briefing itwill be informed accordingly to the MAGNA management. As we always try to maintainzero errors in security field those workers we get warning letters for first time and for secondtime

termination surely. MAGNA management team will always be in touch with KRCCEngineer with formal information of the plinth (Security field).

2) Termination or release;

In site, the site managers, he will record all the information of the selected staffs and workers.Such as, workers home address, past experience, workers behavior, current position and anyother information if needed. The referenced persons from MAGNA, HR department will be insite for serving .Even the subcontractor of MAGNA they will always maintain by word ofMAGNA policy, all those policies will be informed to the subcontractors before enduring thecontract.

MAGNA will take all documents which belong to the project, including ID card. And the issuewill be reported to KRCC Engineer.

3) Termination or completion of contract.In case of conflict with any workers or subcontractor, or completion of the contract,MAGNA will terminate the contract, and the entire documents which belong to the projectincluding ID cards will be cede from the terminated workers. And in

STRATEGY PLAN1. MAGNA has equipment and vehicles in several construction sites in various provinces of

Afghanistan. The mobilization required to move the equipment to the project site will bevery nominal and available equipment should be on site within a week after issue of NTP.

2. Mobilization goal for a required equipment will required at least 2 days.

3. the MAGNA director General General and the rest of the company management staff for

the project will be able to fully assemble during this initial mobilization period MAGNAcurrently has the available staff needed to work on this project

The first week of the project will be a crucial time for the proper assembling of all neededmaterials, manpower, and equipment. The efficiency of the project will be determined by the

careful planning the takes place during this period.

The following objectives will be MAGNA accomplished during the first one month of theproject:
