The Contractor should always remain vigilant to avoid cold joints. If, however, a cold joint is formed due to unavoidable reasons, the following procedure shall be adopted for treating it:a) If concrete is so green that it can be removed manually and if vibrators can penetrate the surface without much effort, fresh concrete can be placed directly against the old surface. The old concrete should be covered by fresh concrete as quickly as possible and the joint thoroughly and systematically vibrated. b) In case concrete has hardened a bit more than (a) but can still be easily removed by a light hand pick, the surface will be raked thoroughly and the loose concrete removed completely without disturbing the rest of the concrete in depth. A rich mortar layer 12 mm in thickness, will be placed on the cold joint fresh concrete shall be placed on the mortar layer and the joint will be thoroughly and systematically vibrated penetrating the vibrator deep into the old layer of concrete. c) In case the concrete at the joint has become so stiff that it cannot be remolded mortar or slurry does not rise in spite of extensive vibration, the joint will be harden for at least 12-24 hrs.

One of the main advantages of PVC water-stops is that they can be installed very easily. The jointing can be carried out by simple heat fusion/welding process. The installation consists of embedding one half of he water-stop across its width in concrete leaving the second half open. After completion of the first half, the concrete would be poured and the second half would also be embedded leaving the centre bulb free for expansion and contraction. It is important that during pouring of concrete the water-stops should not be deformed due to impact. The concrete should be properly vibrated so that it develops intimate contact with the water-stops Care should be taken so as not to reduce effective cross section of the water-stops. It is necessary that PVC water-stops are placed near the centre of the concrete walls. During installation, PVC water-stops are often required to be jointed. there are essentially two types of joints : 1) Straight Joints 2) Mitred Joints Straight joints are very simple and can easily be carried out at the site. Fabrication of PVC water-stops can be carried out by means of simple tools. they are: 1. Hand saw or sharp knife for cutting. 2. Heating source like blow lamp or any other means. 3. A metal strip plate of suitable width and about 500 - 600 mm length with holding device like a wooden handle. 4. Metal or wooden templates with suitable marking/grooves for 45 Deg.C deg.C angle cuttings. simple and 90 The following jointing method is recommended : 1. Water-stops are cut by means of cutting device. Clean cuts provide the best results. 2. The metal strip is heated to about 200 Deg.C which would be adequate to melt the water-stops material. The strip should not be overheated so as to prevent charring of PVC material. 120 Project: National Law University Main Gate (2Nos) __________Technical specification of materials, Approved material list Section – 13 3. Two ends of PVC water-stops to be joined are pressed uniformly against the hot metal strip. When sufficient fusing of PVC is attained, the metal strip removed and both the ends are pressed together. It is necessary to ensure that the entire cross section is uniformly heated and fused. It also essential to attain alignments of the complete cross section and particularly of centre bulbs both the ends are well pressed until the joint cools down to ambient temperature. 4. The metal strip should be cleaned by means of wire brush and cotton waste before the next welding is carried out 1.5 FACILITES FOR PREPRATION AND TESTING OF AT SITE : In order to exercise the required degree of consultant control over the concrete material and their preparation the contactor is expected to set up and maintain at his own expense a testing laboratory at site.

The dry mortar shall be mixed with water in the usual way as and when sufficient water to make it workable. The terrazzo topping shall be laid while the under layer is still plastic, but has hardened sufficiently to prevent cement from rising to the surface. This is normally achieved between 18 to 24 hours after the under layer has been laid. A cement slurry preferable of the same color as the topping shall be brushed on the surface immediately before laying is commenced. It shall be laid to a uniform thickness slightly more than that specified in order to get the specified finished thickness after rubbing. The surface of the top layer shall be trowelled over, pressed and brought true to required level by a straight edge and steel floats in such a manner that the maximum amount of marble chips come up and are spread uniformly over the surface. 1.5 POLISHING, CURING AND FINISHING : Polishing shall be done by machine. About 36 hours after laying the top layer, the surface shall be watered and ground evenly with machine fitted with special rapid cutting grit blocks (carborundum stone) of coarse grade (No. 60) till the marble chips are evenly exposed and the floor is smooth. After the first grinding, the surface shall be thoroughly washed to remove all grinding mud and covered with a grout of cement of/and coloring matter in same mix and proportion as the topping in order to fill any pin holes that appear.

The bedding for the tile shall be with cement mortar 1:3 (1 cement : 3 coarse sand ) or as specified in the specification. The average thickness of the bedding shall be 20mm while the thickness under portion of the tiles shall not be less than 12mm. Mortar shall be spread, temped and corrected to proper levels and allowed to harden sufficiently to offer a fairly rigid cushion for the tiles to be set to enable the mason to place wooden plank across and squat on it. Over this mortar bedding neat grey cement slurry of honey like consistency shall be spread at the rate of 3.3 kg. of cement per square meter over such an area as soaked in water washed clean and shall be fixed in this grout one after another, each tiles gently being tapped with a wooden mallet till it is properly bedded and in level with the adjoining tiles. The joint shall be kept as thin as possible and in straight lines or to suit the required pattern. The surface of flooring during laying shall be frequently checked with a straight edge about 2m. long, so as to obtain a true surface with their required slops. Where full size tiles cannot be fixed these shall be cut (Sawn) to the required size, and their edge rubbed smooth to ensure straight and true joints. Tiles which are fixed in the floor adjoining the wall shall enter not less than 10mm. under plaster, skirting or dado. After tiles have been laid surplus cement grout shall be cleaned off. Painting and Polishing :- The joints shall be cleaned off the grey cement grout with wire brush or trowel to a depth of 2mm to 3mm and all dust and loose mortar removed.

Joints shall then be flush pointed with white cement added with pigments if required to match the color of tiles. The surfaces shall then be kept wet for seven days. After curing the surface shall be washed and finished clean. The finished work shall not sound hollow when tapped with a wooden mallet. 4.0 ARTIFICIAL STONE FLORING : Selection of materials, methods of mixing, placing and compacting shall generally conform to the specification under plain and reinforced cement concrete described earlier. A stiff mix consistent with workability shall be used. 4.1 PREPARATION OF SURFACE : Before the operation for laying topping is started the surface of base concrete shall be thoroughly cleaned of all dirt, loose particles, caked mortar, droppings and laitance of any by scrubbing with coir or steel wire brush where the concrete has hardened so much that roughening of surface by wire brush is not possible, the surface shall be roughened by chipping or hacking at close intervals. The surface shall then be cleaned with water & kept for 12 hours and surplus water shall be removed by mopping before the topping is laid. 4.2 LAYING : 141 Project: National Law University Main Gate (2Nos) __________Technical specification of materials, Approved material list Section – 13 The screed strips shall be fixed over the base concrete dividing it into suitable panels. Before placing the concrete for topping, neat cement slurry shall be thoroughly brushed into the prepared surface of the base concrete just ahead of the finish. Concrete of specified proportion and thickness shall be laid in alternate panels to required level and shape and thoroughly tamped. 4.3 FINISHING THE SURFACE : After the concrete has been fully compacted it shall be finished by toweling or floating with neat cement rendering Finishing operations shall start shortly after the compaction of concrete and the surfaces shall be trowelled three times at intervals so as to produce a uniform and hard surface. The satisfactory resistance of floor to wear depends largely upon the care with trowelling is carried out. The time interval allowed between successive trowelling is very important. Immediately trowelling shall be done to give a level surface. Excessive trowelling in the earlier stages shall be avoided as this tends to brings a layer rich in cement to line surface.

SECTION - XII PILE WORK 1 MATERIALS : 1.1 Cement : The cement used shall conform to the requirements of IS : 269-1976, IS : 455-1976, IS : 8041-19788, IS : 6909-1973 or IS : 1489-1976. 163 Project: National Law University Main Gate (2Nos) Section – 13 __________Technical specification of materials, Approved material list 1.2 Steel : Reinforcement steel shall conform to IS : 1139-1966 or IS : 1786-1979 or IS : 226-1975. The stresses allowed in steel should conform to IS : 456-2000. 1.2.1 For under-reamed board compaction piles, the reinforcement cage shall be prepared by welding the hoop bars to withstand the stresses during compaction process. 2 Concrete : 2.1 Materials and methods of manufacture for cement concrete shall in general be in accordance with the method of concreting under the conditions of pile installation. 2.2 Consistency of concrete fore cast in situ piles shall be suitable to the method of installation of piles. Concrete shall be so designed or chosen as to have homogeneous mix having a flowable character consistent with the method of concreting under the given conditions of pile installation. In achieving these results minor deviations in the mix proportions used in structural concrete may be necessary. 2.3 Slump of concrete shall range between 100 mm to 150 mm for concreting in water-free unlined boreholes. For concreting by tremie, a slump of 150 mm to 200 mm shall be used. 2.4 In case of tremie concreting for piles of smaller diameter and depth of up to 10m, the minimum cement content should be 350 Kg/m3 of concrete. For piles of large diameter and / or deeper piles, the minimum cement content should be 400 kg/m3 of concrete. For design purpose, the strength of concrete mix may be taken equivalent M20, for concrete with cement content of 350 kg/m3 and 400 kg/m3. Where concrete of higher strength is needed, richer concrete mix with higher cement content may be designed. In case of piles subsequently exposed to free water or in case of piles where concreting is done under water or drilling mud using methods other than the tremie, 10 percent extra cement over that required for the design grade of concrete at the specified slump shall be used subject to the minimum quantities of cement specified above. 2.5 For the concrete, water and aggregates specifications laid down in IS : 456-2000 shall be followed in general. Natural rounded shingle of appropriate size may also be used as coarse aggregate. It helps to give high slump with less water cement ratio. For tremie concreting aggregates having nominal size more that 20 mm should not be used. 164 Project: National Law University Main Gate (2Nos) Section – 13 __________Technical specification of materials, Approved material list 2.6 The concrete for piles in aggressive surroundings due to presence of sulphates, etc., should have a concrete mix of appropriate type of cement in suitable proportion. 2.6.1 If the concentration of sulphates (measured as SO3) exceeds one percent in soil or 2 500 parts per million (ppm) in water a mix using 400 kg/m3 of sulphate resisting Portland cement should be used. For soils with 0.5 to 1 percent of sulphates or ground water with 1 200 to 2 500 ppm, the mix should have 330 kg/m3 of sulphate resisting Portland cement. For concentrations lesser than above concrete mix with 330 kg/m3 ordinary Portland cement or 310 kg/m3 sulphate resisting should be used. In place of ordinary Portland cement, pozzolana cement / blast furnace slag cement may be used. 2.6.2 Concentration of sulphates up to 0-2 percent in soil and 300 ppm in water may be inconsequential. 2.7 For bored compaction piles rapid hardening cement (see 13.1.1) shall not be used. To facilitate construction, admixtures for retarding the setting of concrete may be used. 3.0 EQUIPMENT AND ACCESSORIES : 3.1 The selection of equipment and accessories will depend upon the type of under-reamed piles, site conditions and nature of strata. Also it will depend on economic considerations and availability of manually or power operated equipment. 3.2 A typical list of equipment for manual construction is given in Appendix D. 3.3 Bore holes may be made by earth augers. In case of manual boring, an auger boring guide shall be sued to keep the bores vertical or to the desired inclination and in position. After the bore is made to the required depth, enlarging of the base shall be carried out by means of an under-reaming tool. 3.4 In ground with high water table having unstable pile bores, boring and under-reaming may be carried out using a suitable drilling mud. General guidelines for bentonite drilling mud are given in Appendix E. In normally met soil strata, drilling mud can be poured from top while boring and under-reaming can be done by normal spiral earth auger and underreamer. The level of drilling mud should always be about one meter above water table or the level at which caving in occurs. In case of very unstable strata with excessive caving in, continuous circulation of drilling mud using suitable pumping equipment and ripod, etc. along with modified auger and under-reamer may be used. 3.5 Sometimes permeable strata overlying a rim clayey stratum may be cased and normal boring and under-reaming operation may be carried out in clayey stratum. 165 Project: National Law University Main Gate (2Nos) Section – 13 __________Technical specification of materials, Approved material list 3.6 To avoid irregular shape and widening of bore hole in very loose strata at top, a casing pipe of suitable length may be used temporarily during boring and concreting. 3.7 For improved control over the inclination of batter piles, a tripod hoist with fixed pully should be used for lowering in of under-reaming tools. 3.8 For placing the concrete in bore holes full of drilling mud or subsoil water, tremie pipe of not less than 150 mm diameter with flap valve at the bottom should be used. 3.9 For batter under-reamed piles, the reinforcement cage should be placed guiding it by a chute or any other suitable method. If concreting is not done by tremie, it should be done by chute. 3.10 In under-reamed compaction piles, suitable devices should be used for guiding the movement of drop weight and specified core assembly for its vertical driving. For operating the drop weights of adequate capacity, suitable winch with hoisting attachment should be used. 4.0 CONSTRUCTION : 4.1 Under-reamed piles may be constructed by selecting suitable installation techniques at a given site depending on subsoil strata conditions and type of under-reamed pile and number of bulbs. 4.2 In construction with the equipment given in 6, initially boring guide is fixed with its lower frame levelled for making desired angular adjustment for piles at batter. Boring is done up to required depth and under-reaming is completed. 4.2.1 In order to achieve proper under-reamed bulb, the depth of bore hole should be checked before starting under-reaming. It should also be checked during under-reaming and any extra soil at the bottom of bore hole reamed by auger before reinserting the under-reaming tool. 4.2.2 The completion of desired under-reamed bulb is ascertained by (a) the vertical movement of the handle, and (b) when no further soil is cut. 4.2.3 In double or multi-under-reamed piles, boring is first completed to the depth required for the first (top) under-ream only and after completing the under-reaming, boring is extended further for the second under-ream and the process is repeated. 166 Project: National Law University Main Gate (2Nos) Section – 13 __________Technical specification of materials, Approved material list 4.3 Control of Alignment : The piles shall be installed as correctly as possible at the correct location and truly vertical (or at the specified batter).Grate care shall be exercised in respect of single pile or piles in two-pile groups under a column. As a guide, for vertical piles a deviation of 1.5 percent and for raker piles a deviation of 4 percent shall not normally be exceeded. In special cases, a closer tolerance may be necessary. Piles shall not deiate more than 75 mm or one quarter the stem diameter, whichever is less (75 mm or D/10 whichever is more in case of piles having diameter more than 600 mm) from the designed position at the working level. In the case of single pile under a column, the positional deviation should not be more that 50 mm or one quarter of the stem diameter whichever is less (100 mm in case of piles having diameter more than 600 mm). For piles where cut-off is at substantial depths, the design should provide for the worst combination of the above tolerances in position and inclination. In case of piles deviating beyond these limits, corrective measures where necessary may be taken in the form of increasing pile size, provision of extra reinforcement in the pile, redesign of pile cap and pile ties. If the resulting eccentricity cannot be taken care of by the above measures, the piles should be replaced or supplemented by one or more additional piles. NOTE : In case of raker piles up to a rake of 1 in 6, there may be no reduction in the capacity of the pile unless otherwise stated. 4.4 Concreting shall be done as soon as possible after completing the pile bore. The bore hole full of drilling mud should not be left unconcreted for more than 12 to 24 hours depending upon the stability of bore hole. 15.5 For placing concrete in pile bores, a funnel should be used and method of concreting should be such that the entire volume of the pile bore is filled up without the formations of voids and / or mixing of soil and drilling fluid in the concrete. 15.5.1 In empty bore holes for under-reamed piles a small quantity of concrete is pourd to give about a 100 mm layer of concrete at the bottom. Reinforcement is lowered next and positioned correctly. Then concrete is poured to fill up the bore hole. Care should be taken that soil is not scrapped from sides if rodding is done for compaction. Vibrators shall not be used. 15.5.2 If the water is confined up to the bucket length portion at the toe and seepage is low, the water should be bailed out and concreting should be done as in 15.5.1. 167 Project: National Law University Main Gate (2Nos) Section – 13 __________Technical specification of materials, Approved material list 15.5.3 In case the pile bore is stabilized with drilling mud or by maintaining water head within the bore hole, the bottom of bore hole shall be carefully cleaned by flushing it with fresh drilling mud, and pile bore will be checked for its depth immediately before concreting. Concreting shall be done by tremie method. The tremie should have a valve at its bottom and lowered with its valve closed at the start and filled up with concrete. The valve is then opened to permit the flow of concrete which permits the upwards displacement of drilling mud. The pouring should be continuous and tremie is gradually lifted up such that the tremie pipe opening remains always in the concrete. If the final stage the quantity of concrete in tremie should be enough so that on final withdrawal some concrete spills over the ground. NOTES : 1. The concrete should be coherent, rich in cement (not less than 350 kgf/m3) and of slump not less than 150 mm. 2. The tremie pipe should always penetrate well into the concrete with an adequate margin of safety against accidental withdrawal of the pipe is surged to discharge the concrete. 3. The pile should be concreted wholly by tremie and the method of deposition should not be changed part way up the pile, to prevent the laitance from being entrapped within the pile. 4. All tremie tubes should be scrupulously cleaned before and after use. 5. Normally concreting of the piles should be uninterrupted. In the exceptional case of interruption of concreting, but which can be resumed within 1 or 2 hours, the tremie shall not be taken out of the concrete. Instead it shall be raised and lowered slowly, from time to time to prevent the concrete around the tremie from setting. Concreting should be resumed by introducing a little richer concrete with a slump of about 200 mm for easy displacement of the partly set concrete. If the concreting cannot be resumed before final set-up of concrete already placed, the pile so cast may be rejected, or used with modifications. 6. In case of withdrawal of tremie o0ut of the concrete, either accidentally or to remove a choke in the tremie, the tremie may be re-introduced in a manner to prevent impregnation of laitance or scum lying on the top of the concrete already deposited in the bore. 168 Project: National Law University Main Gate (2Nos) Section – 13 __________Technical specification of materials, Approved material list 15.5.4 In inclined piles, the concreting should be done through achute or by tremie method. 15.5.5 For under-reamed bore compaction piles, the pile bore is first filled up without placing any reinforcement. Concreting is done as in 15.5.1 depending upon situation. Soon after the specified core assembly shall be driven and extra concrete shall be poured in simultaneously to keep the level of concrete up to ground level. If hollow driving pipe is used in core assembly, the pipe shall be withdrawn after filling it with fresh concrete which will be left behind. NOTE :In under-reamed bored compaction pile, concreting should be uninterrupted and notes (5) and (6) under clause 15.5.3. 15.5.6 The top of concrete in a pile shall be brought above the cut-off level to permit removal of all laitance and weak concrete before capping and to ensure good concrete at the cut-off level for proper embedment into the pile cap. 15.5.7 Where cut-off level is less than 1.5 metre below working level, concrete shall be cast to a minimum of 300 mm above cut-off level. For each additional 0.3 m increase in cut-off level below working level, additional coverage of 50 mm minimum shall be allowed. Higher allowance may be necessary depending on the length of the pile. When concrete is placed by tremie method, it shall be cast to the piling platform level to permit overflow of concrete for visual inspection or to a minimum of one metre above cut-off level. In the circumstance where cut-off level is below ground water, the need to maintain a pressure on the unset concrete equal to or greater than water pressure should be observed and accordingly length of extra concrete above cut-off level shall be determined. 15.5.8 Defective Pile : In case, defective piles are formed, they shall be removed or left in place whichever is convenient without affecting performance of the adjacent piles or the cap as a whole. Additional piles shall be provided to replace them as directed. 15.5.9 Any deviation from the designed location alignment or load capacity of any pile shall be noted and adequate measures taken well before the concreting of the pile cap and plinth beam if the deviations are beyond the permissible limit. 169 Project: National Law University Main Gate (2Nos) Section – 13 __________Technical specification of materials, Approved material list APPENDIX - D REQIPMENT FOR UNDER-REAMED PILES (MANUAL CONSTRUCTION) D-1 EQUIPMENT D-1.1 Normally the following equipment will be required in manual operation : (a) (b) (c) (d) D-1.1.1 An auger An under-reamed A boring guide ; and Accessories like spare extensions, cutting tool, concreting funnel, etc. For the piles of size larger than 30 cm and for larger depths additional equipment required will be a portable tripod hoist with a manually operated which.

D-1.1.3 The additional equipment normally required for under-reamed compaction pile are the following : (a) (b) and Drop weight for driving the core assembly, and Pipe or solid core. 170 Project: National Law University Main Gate (2Nos) Section – 13 __________Technical specification of materials, Approved material list APPENDIX - E BASIC PROPERTIES OF DRILLING MUD (BENTONITE) E-1 PROPERTIES : E-1.1 The bentonite suspension used in bore holes is basically a clay of montmorillonite group having exchangeable sodium cations. Because of the presence of medium cations, bentonite on dispersion will break down into small plate like particles having a negative charge on the surfaces and positive charge on the edges. When the dispersion is left to stand un-disturbed, the particles become oriented building up a mechanical structure of its own, the mechanical structure held by electrical bonds is observable as a jelly like mass or jell material. When the jell is agitated, the weak electrical bonds are broken and the dispersion becomes fluid. E-2 FUNCTIONS : E.2.1 The action of bentonite in stabilizing the sides of bore holes primarily due to the thixotropic property of bentonite suspensions. The thixotropic property of bentonite suspension permits the material to have the consistency of a fluid when introduced into the excavation and when undisturbed forms a jelly which when agitated becomes a fluid again. E-2.2 In the case of a granular soil, the bentonite suspension penetrates into the sides under positive pressure and after a while forms a jelly. The bentonite suspension gets deposited on the sides of the hole and makes the surface impervious and imparts a plastering effect. In impervious clay, the bentonite does not penetrate into the soil, but deposits only a this film on the surface of the hole. Under such conditions, stability is derived from the hydro-static head of the suspension. E-3 SPECIFICATION : E-3.1 The bentonite suspension used for piling work shall satisfy the following requirements : (a) The liquid limit of bentonite when tested in accordance with IS : 2720) (Part V) - 1965 shall be more than 300 percent and less the 450 percent. (b) The sand content of the bentonite powder shall not be greater than 7 percent. NOTE : The purpose of limiting the sand content is mainly to control and reduce wear and tear of the pumping equipment. the 171 Project: National Law University Main Gate (2Nos) Section – 13 __________Technical specification of materials, Approved material list (c) F-1 Bentonite solution should be made by mixing it with fresh water using pump for circulation. The relative density of the bentonite solution should be between 1.034 and 1.10. (d) The differential free swell shall be more than 540 percent. : LOAD TEST ON PILES F-1 These would be conducted on piles on completion of 28 days after casting. Two types of namely initial and routine tests, for each type of loading viz. Vertical, horizontal (lateral) pull out, are performed on piles. F-1.1 :Initial Tests This test shall be performed to confirm the design load calculations and to provide guidelines for setting up the limits of acceptance for routine tests. It also gives an idea of the suitability of the piling system. Initial test on pile are to be carried out at one or more location depending on the No. of piles required.
