a. Nominal mix on volumetric basis &
b. Design mix depending on characteristic strength.
Contractor
Page 75
Executive Engineer
4.1 Nominal Mix on Volumetric Basis: This concrete shall be made (without preliminary tests) by adopting nominal concrete mix with
proportions of materials as specified in Table -4.
Table 4: Proportions for nominal Mix Concrete

Volumetric
Volumetric
-----------------------------------------------------Note: The cement content of the mix shall be proportionately increased if the quantity of water in a mix has to be increased to overcome the
difficulties of placement & compaction, so that the water-cement ratio, as specified, is not exceeded.
Design Mix Concrete:The mix shall be designed to produce the grade of concrete having the required workability & characteristic strength not
less than appropriate values mentioned relevant IS.The design mix will have to be got approved from Govt approved testing
laboratory/Institutions before start of work.
** As long as the quality of materials does not change, a mix design done earlier shall be considered adequate for later work.
** However, in case the quality of materials changes the Engr in- Charge may ask for a new design mix.
** While designing the mix, the durability requirement as given in IS:456 (Revised) shall also be taken into account.
5 Concrete Mix Proportioning: Proportioning, as used in this specification, shall mean the process of determining the proportions of the various
ingredients to be used to produce concrete of the required strength, workability, durability & other properties.
5.1 Maximum Density: Suitable proportion of sand & the different sizes of coarse aggregates for each grade of concrete shall be selected to
give as nearly as practicable the max. density. This shall be determined by mathematical means, laboratory tests, field trials & suitable
changes in aggregate gradation. The Contractor shall submit to the Engr-in-Charge
test results after varying the mix proportions &/or grading of aggregate so as to establish the max. density of any particular grade of concrete.
5.2 Water-Cement Ratio: Once a mix, including its water-cement ratio, has been determined & approved for use by Engr-in-Charge that watercement ratio shall be maintained. The Contractor shall determine the water content of the aggregates frequently as the work progress, & the
amount of mixing water shall be adjusted so as to maintain the approved water cement
ratio. Maximum water-cement ratio shall never exceed
Contractor
Page 76
Executive Engineer
the values given in IS:456 (Revised) & IS:4651 for various exposures & sulphate attach conditions from durability considerations.
5.3 Consistency: The concrete shall have a consistency such that it shall be workable in the required position & when properly vibrated it flows
around reinforcing steel, all embedded fixtures, etc.
5.4 Workability: The concrete mix proportion shall be such that the concrete is of adequate workability for the placing condition & can be
properly compacted with the means available. Use of plasticiser/ super-plasticiser of approved make shall be taken recourse to where
required for attaining proper workability as specified under table 5 below. Where adequate workability is difficult to obtain at maximum
permissible. Water-cement ratio, increased cement content shall also be alternatively considered while designing the mix proportions. No
separate payment shall be given if plasticer /admixture proposed/approved in design mix.
** The suggested ranges of values of workability of concrete measured in accordance with IS:1199 are indicated in Table-5 below. However,
the actual values to be followed shall be established depending on aggregate sizing, mix proportions, placing conditions, etc & shall be got
approved by the Engineer- in-Charge.

5.5 Durability: For achieving sufficiently durable concrete, strong, dense aggregates, low water-cement ratio & adequate cement content,
proper compaction & curing, proper cover to reinforcement shall always be used. Workability of concrete shall be such that concrete can be
completely compacted with the means available. Leak-proof formwork shall be used so as
to ensure no loss of cement-slurry during pouring & compaction. Cover to reinforcement shall be uniform & as shown in drawings. Concrete
mix design shall always take into account the type of cement, minimum cement content irrespective of the type of cement & maximum watercement ratio conforming to the exposure conditions.
6 Batching: In concrete, the quantity of both cement & aggregate shall be determined by mass. Where the mass of cement is determined on
the basis of mass of cement/bag, a reasonable number of bags shall be weighed periodically to check the net mass. Where the cement is
weighed at site & not in bags, it shall be weighed separately from the aggregates. Water shall be either measured by volume in calibrated
tanks or weighed. Any solid admixtures that are to be added, shall be measured by mass; liquid & paste admixtures shall be measured by
volume/mass. Batching plant, where used, shall conf.to IS:4925. All measuring equipment shall be maintained in a clean serviceable
condition, & their accuracy periodically checked.
** Except where it can be shown to the satisfaction of the Engr- in-Charge that supply of properly graded aggregate of uniform quality can be
maintained over the period of work, the grading of aggregate shall be controlled by obtaining the coarse aggregate in different size & blending

** All records & charts for the batching & mixing operations shall be prepared & maintained by the Contractor as per the instructions of
Engineer-in-Charge.
7.4 Hand Mixing: Hand mixing of concrete shall not be permitted. However, for not-critical structures located at far away isolated places, this
may be permitted by the Engr-in-Charge as a special case. 10% extra cement shall have to be added to the normal mix when mixed by hand.
It shall be carried out on a watertight platform & care shall be taken to ensure
that mixing is continued until the mass is uniform in colour & consistency. No extra payment shall be made to the Contractor for mixing by
hand/for using extra cement due to hand mixing. However, extra cement consumed shall be considered for reconciliation purposes where
such concreting is allowed by the Engineer-in-Charge.

for thin slabs (of thickness less than 200mm) surface vibration by such vibrators may be permitted, upon approval of the Engr-in-Charge.
** Whenever vibration has to be applied externally, the design of formwork & the disposition of vibrations shall be carefully planned to ensure
to efficient compaction & to avoid surface blemishes.
8.2 Transportation: All concrete shall be conveyed form the mixer to the place of final deposit as rapidly as possible in suitable buckets,
dumpers, containers/conveyors which shall be mortar leak tight. Care shall be taken to prevent the segregation/
loss of the ingredients & maintaining the required
workability. From the mixing batch plant, concrete will be brought at site by transit mixers, subject to approval from Engineer-in-charge.
** During hot/cold weather, concrete shall be transported in deep containers. Other suitable methods to reduce the loss of water by
evaporation in hot weather & heat loss in cold weather may also be adopted. All equipment used for transporting
& placing of concrete shall be maintained in clean
condition. All buckets, hoppers, chutes, dumpers & other equipment shall be thoroughly cleaned after each use.
8.3 Placing & Compaction: Before placing concrete,all soil surfaces upon which/against which concrete is to be placed shall be well
compacted & free from standing water, mud or debris. Soft or yielding soil shall be removed & replace, with lean concrete/with selected
soils/sand & compacted to the density as directed by Engr-in-Charge. The surface of absorptive soil
(against which concrete is to be placed) shall be moistened thoroughly so that moisture is not drawn from the freshly placed concrete.
** Concrete shall be discharged by vertical drop only & the drop height shall not normally exceed 1.5m throughout all stages of delivery until
the concrete comes to rest in forms. For continuous concreting operation windows of suitable size shall be kept in the formwork or chutes shall
be used to avoid segregation of concrete.
** Concrete shall be deposited as near as practicable in its final position to avoid re handling. Concrete shall be placed in successive
horizontal layers. The bucket loads/other units of deposit, shall be placed progressively along the face of the layer with such overlap as will
facilitate spreading the layer of uniform depth & texture with a minimum of hand
shovelling. Any tendency to segregation shall be corrected by shovelling coarse aggregates into mortar rather than mortar on the coarse
aggregates. Such a tendency for segregation shall be corrected by redesign of mix, change in process/ other means, as directed by Engr-inCharge.
** All struts, stays & braces (serving temporarily to hold the forms in correct shape & alignment pending the placing of concrete at their
locations)shall be removed when the concrete placing has reached an elevation rendering their service unnecessary. These shall not be
buried in the concrete. Concrete shall be thoroughly compacted with vibrators & fully worked around the reinforcement, embedded fixtures &
into
corners of formwork before setting commences & shall not be subsequently disturbed. Methods of placing shall be such as to preclude
segregation. The formation of stone-pockets/mortar bondage in corners & against face forms shall not be permitted. Should these occur, they
shall be dug out, reformed
& refilled to sufficient depth & shape for through
bonding as directed by the Engineer-in-Charge. Care shall be taken to avoid displacement of reinforcement & embedded inserts/ movement of
formwork.
Contractor

Executive Engineer
** Unless otherwise approved, concrete shall be placed in single operation to the full thickness of foundation rafts, slabs,beams & similar
members. Concrete shall be placed continuously until completion of the part of the work between approved construction joints or as directed
by the Engr-in- Charge.
** The method of placing & compaction employed in any particular section of the work shall be to the entire satisfaction of the Engr-in-Charge.
** During hot weather (atmospheric temperature above 40 Deg.C)/ cold weather(atmospheric temperature below 5 Deg.C), the concreting
shall be done as per the procedure set out in IS: 7861 (Part 1&2).
** Concrete that has set standing & becomes stiffened shall not be used in the work.
8.4 Embedment in Concrete: Concreting shall not be started unless the electrical conduits, pipes, fixtures etc, wherever required, are laid by
the concerned agency. The Contractor shall afford all the facilities & maintain co-ordination of work with other agencies engaged in electrical &
such other works as directed by the Engr-in-Charge.
** Before concreting, contractor should obtain drawings from Engr-in-Charge showing all fixtures & accordingly the contractor shall provide,
fabricate & lay in proper position all metal inserts, anchor bolts, pipes etc. (Which are required to be embedded in concrete members)as per
relevant drawings & directions of Engr-in-Charge.
** All embedment, inserts etc. shall be fully held & secured in their respective positions by the concerned agencies to the entire satisfaction of
the Engineer-in-Charge so as to avoid any dislocation or displacement during the concreting operations.
The Contractor shall take all possible care during
concreting to maintain these embedment/inserts in their exact locations.
9. Construction Joints: Construction joints shall be provided in position as shown or described on the drawings or as directed by the Engineerin-Charge. These joints shall be provided in such a way that, they do not cause serious weakness in the structure. Such joints shall be kept to
the minimum. These shall be straight & at right angles to the direction of main reinforcement. These shall be located at the places
where bending moments & shear force are small or where the joints will be supported by the other members & which should not cause
difficulty in progress of the construction work.
** In a column, the joint shall be formed about 100 to 150mm below the lowest soffit of the beams framing into it. Concrete in a beam & slab
shall be placed throughout without a joint but if the provision of a joint is unavoidable, the joint shall be vertical & located within 1/3 to 1/4 of the
span, unless otherwise shown on the drawings.
** When stopping the concrete on a vertical plane in slabs & beams, an approved stop board shall be placed with necessary slots for
reinforcement bars. The construction joints shall be keyed by providing a triangular or trapezoidal fillet nailed on the stop board. Inclined joints
shall not be permitted.
Any concrete flowing through the joints of stop
board shall be removed soon after the initial set. When concrete is stopped on a horizontal plane, the surface shall be roughened & cleaned
after the initial set & a triangular or trapezoidal groove shall be provided for keying with the new concrete later.
** When the work has to be resumed on a surface which has hardened, such surface shall be cleared of any foreign materials & roughened to
expose the tips of the coarse aggregate. It shall then be swept clean & thoroughly washed & wetted before any new concrete is poured. Any
set mortar or concrete sticking to the exposed reinforcing rods in & around such joints shall be thoroughly removed. The reinforcements shall
be wire brushed & washed just before pouring any cement

except that high early strength concrete shall be so maintained for at least the 1st 3 days.
** The Contractor shall have all equipment & materials required for curing on hand & ready to use before concrete is placed.
** For curing the concrete in pavements, floors, flat roofs/other level surfaces, the pounding method of curing is preferred after the expiry of 1st
24 hrs during which (ie.1st 24 hrs) the concrete shall be cured by use of wet sacking, canvas, resin etc. The minimum water depth of 25mm for
pounding shall
be maintained. The method of containing the pomaded water shall be approved by the Engr-in-Charge. The pounded areas shall be kept
continuously filled with water & leaks, if any, shall be promptly repaired. Areas cured by pounding method shall be cleared of all debris &
foreign materials after curing
is over.
** Alternatively, membrane curing may be used in lieu of moist curing with the permission of the Engr -in-Charge. Such compounds shall be
applied to all exposed surfaces of the concrete by spraying of brushing as soon as possible after the concrete has set. Minimum film thickness
of such compounds shall be as per the recommendation of the manufacturer so as to obtain an efficiency of 90% as specified by BS-8110.
This
film of curing compound shall be fully removed from the concrete surface after the curing period specified earlier. Engr-in-Charge may not
allow curing by curing compounds for those surfaces where use of curing compound may be detrimental of future finishes according to him.
15 Field Tests:
15.1 Grading Test: Grading test on fine & coarse aggregates shall be carried out as per IS:2386 at intervals specified by the Engr-in-Charge.
** The mandatory tests & their frequencies shall be done on sand & stone aggregates as given in Table below.

out. More frequent tests shall be made if there is a distinct change in working conditions or if required by the Engineer-in-Charge.
15.3 Strength Test of Concrete: Samples from fresh concrete shall be taken as per IS:1199 & cubes shall be made, cured & tested at 28 days
in accordance with IS:516.
** In order to get a relatively quicker idea of the quality of concrete, optional tests on beams for modulus of rupture at 72+2 hours/at 7
days/compressive strength test at 7 days may be carried out in addition to 28 days compressive strength tests. For this purpose, the values
given in Table below may be taken for general guidance in the case of concrete made
with OPC.In all cases, the 28 days compressive strength specified in Table below shall alone be the criterion for acceptance/ rejection of the
concrete from strength consideration. If, however, from tests carried out in a particular work over a reasonably long period, it has been
established to the satisfaction of Engr-in-Charge that a suitable ratio between 28 days compressive strength & the modulus of rupture at 72+2
hours/compressive strength at 7 days may be accepted, the Engr-in-Charge may suitably relax the frequency of 28 days compressive
strength, provided the expected strength values at the specified early age are consistently met. However, set of test cubes for 28 days
strength test shall always
be taken & maintained to cater to any contingencies in the event of failure of 7 days strength.

A random sampling procedure shall be adopted to ensure that each concrete batch shall have a reasonable chance of being tested, that is the
sampling should be spread over the entire period of concreting & cover all mixing units.
15.4 Frequency of Sampling: The minimum frequency of sampling of concrete for each grade shall be in accordance with the following :

** However, when adequate past records for a similar grade exist & justify to the Engineer-in-Charge, a value of standard deviation different
from that shown in Table above, it shall be permissible to use that value.
15.8 Acceptance Criteria:
15.8.1 The concrete shall be deemed to comply with the strength requirements if:
(A) Every sample has a test strength not less than the characteristic value. OR
(B) The strength of 1/more samples though less than the characteristic value,is in each case not less than the greater of
1.

(A) The strength of any sample is less than greater of:
1. The characteristic strength minus 1.35 times the standard deviation &
2. 0.80 times the characteristic strength;
or
(B) The avg.strength of all the samples is less than the characteristic strength plus 1.65-3+Sq.Root[no. ofsample]*(the std.deviation)
** Concrete which does not meet the strength requirements as specified but has a strength greater than that required may, at the discretion of
the Engineer-in-Charge, be accepted as being structurally adequate without further testing.
** If the concrete is deemed not to comply pursuant to requirements, the structural adequacy of the parts affected shall be investigated as
stipulated.
** Concrete of each grade shall be assessed separately.
** Concrete shall be assessed daily for compliance.
** Concrete is labile to be rejected if it is porous or honeycombed; its placing has been interrupted without providing a proper construction
joint; the reinforcement has been displaced beyond the tolerances specified; or construction tolerances have not been met. However, the
hardened concrete may be accepted after carrying out suitable remedial measures to the satisfaction of the Engineer-in-Charge.
16 Finishing of Concrete:
16.1 On striking the formwork, all surface defects such as bulges, ridges & honey-combing etc. observed shall be brought to the notice of the
Engr-in-Charge. The Engr-in-Charge may, at his discretion allow rectification with mortar. However, if honeycombing or sagging is of such
extent as being undesirable,
the Engr-in-Charge may reject the work totally & his
decision shall be binding. No extra payment shall be made for rectifying these defects, demolishing & reconstructing the structure. However,
quantity of cement actually used for this purpose may be considered for reconciliation of materials.
All burrs & uneven faces shall be rubbed smooth with
the help of Carborundum stone.
** The surface of nonshuttered faces shall be smoothened with a wooden float to give a finish similar to that of the rubbed down shuttered
faces. Concealed concrete faces shall be left as from the formwork except that honey-combed surface shall
be made good as specified above. The top faces of slabs not intended to be covered shall be levelled & floated to smooth finish to the rises or

faces. Concealed concrete faces shall be left as from the formwork except that honey-combed surface shall
be made good as specified above. The top faces of slabs not intended to be covered shall be levelled & floated to smooth finish to the rises or
falls shown on the drawings/as directed. The floating shall not be executed to the extent of bringing excess fine materials to the surface. The
top faces of slabs intended to be covered with screed, granolithic/
similar finishes, shall be left with a rough finish.
16.2 Repair & Replacement of Unsatisfactory Concrete:
Repair shall be made as soon as possible after the forms are removed & before the concrete becomes too hard with prior permission from the
Engr-in-Charge, in writing. Stone pockets, segregation patches & damaged areas shall be chipped out & the edges undercut slightly to form a
key. All loose material shall
be washed out before patching. No excess water shall be left in the cavity, but the concrete shall be damp. A good bond between the patch &
parent concrete shall be obtained by sprinkling dry cement on the wet surface/by throwing mortar with force on to the wetted concrete, or by
brush in a coat of thick cement grout of about 1:1 (1 cement:1 Sand) just before applying the patching material. Before this has dried,
the remainder of the patch shall be filled with mortar/concrete,depending on the extent of the repair.
** Cement concrete/ mortar used in repair of exposed surfaces shall be made with cement from the same source as that used in concrete &
blended with sufficient amount of white Portland cement to produce the same colour as in the adjoining concrete. The proportions of
ingredients shall be same as those used in parent concrete. The mortar shall be as dry as
possible & well compacted into the cavity. All filling shall be tightly bonded to the concrete & shall be sound, free from shrinkage cracks after

11.a) Even though it is the obligatory duty of the contractors to have an up-to-date laboratory at site & carryout the
necessary tests in this laboratory, they shall submit for every 5 slabs/part thereof additional 3 cubes of M40 cement
concrete work for testing at the approved laboratory for 28 days strength. The contractors shall also send to the
approved laboratory
once in a month three flexural beams along with the
corresponding 3 C C cubes for testing flexural as well as compressive strength. The contractors shall arrange to send
the cubes & flexural beams to approved testing laboratory at least 2 days before the date of testing of the cubes as
well as beams failing which penalty of Rs.500/day will be imposed & recovered from the contractors bill. The
charges for testing of cubes & beams shall be borne by the contractors.
The cubes shall also be tested for 7 days, 14 days & 28 days strength at the site laboratory in the presence of
Engineer in- charge of the work. Whenever the material cubes & beams are required to be sent to the approved
laboratory the same shall be transported to the approved Laboratory by the contractor
at their cost. However the contractors shall cast
12 cubes during the concreting of each slab of M-40 grade & test the cubes at site laboratory in accordance with

Remaining three cubes shall be dealt with as per clause 16.3.
b) Quality control in the field may be exercised on the basis of compressive strength. It may, however be ensured that
in such case, the materials & mix proportions remain unaltered.
The water content shall be the minimum required to provide the specified workability for full compaction of the
concrete to the required density. The maximum water cement ratio shall be 0.40.
c) For M-40 CC work at least three sets consisting of 4 cubes from each load shall be cast for testing the compressive
strength for each day's work for every 50 CuM or part thereof of concrete placed during construction. One cube from
each set shall be tested for 7 days, 14 days & 28 days strength in presence of Engineer in accordance with testing
procedure.
In case of failure
Contractor
In case of failure of 28 days strength at site laboratory remaining three cubes shall be sent to approved laboratory
immediately for testing for 28 days strength. If the quantity of concrete on any day is more than 15 CuM for M-10
CC or min. laid below one slab length of 45x3.25m & 8.5 CuM for M-15 CC then atleast 2 sets of cubes shall be
casted & tested for 7 days & 28 days strength in site lab.
d) At each site of work, minimum 6 cores shall be taken for testing.
e) In case the cube test for 28 days period fails, additional core shall be taken from the concrete slab & will be tested
at contractor's cost. The core will be 100mm dia.If it fails, action as contemplated under clause no.17.6 shall be
taken.
12.a)The density of the compacted concrete shall be such that the total air voids are not more than 3%. The air voids
shall be derived from the difference between the theoretical maximum saturated & dry densities of the concrete
calculated from the specific gravities of the constituents of the mix. The density shall be calculated as per given
elsewhere. The average value of two samples of cores of at least 100mm dia shall be considered. If the average of
any two consecutive measurements of density of cores is below the minimum required,the extent of defective
concrete shall be determined by additional cores or other means approved by the Engineer & the concrete shall be
removed & replaced with new materials in
accordance with the specification.
b) All cores taken for density measurements shall also be checked for thickness. In case of doubt, additional cores
may be ordered by the Engineer & taken at locations decided by him to check the depth of density of concrete slab
without any compensation being paid for the same. Thickness of the slab at any point checked mentioned above shall
have minimum specified
thickness as per drawing. The cost of Cores & samples
to be taken & their testing shall be borne by the contractors. Cores of M-40 cc slab shall be extracted & submitted
within a week's period after completion of 28 days in the approved laboratory.
c) In calculating the density, allowances shall be made for any steel in cores. Cores shall be reinstated with
compacted concrete with mix proportions of 1 part of Portland cement, 2 parts of fine aggregate, 2 parts of 10mm,
nominal size single sized coarse aggregate by weight or with epoxy mortar or as directed by the Engineer at the
contractor's cost. In case the cores are taken from the road already opened to traffic, the mix/ material adopted for
filling shall be such that it will develop the requisite strength in a minimum period. The holes created by cores shall
be so filled that these do not shrink. If necessary, non-shrink grout shall be used by the contractor at his own cost.
d) Core density test shall be carried out in accordance with relevant IS Codes.
e) The results
Contractor
e) The results of crushing strength tests on these cores shall be less than 0.8 times the characteristic cube crushing
strength (ie.400 Kg/SqCm) where the height to diameter ratio of the core is two. Where height to diameter ratio is
varied then the necessary corrections would be made in calculating the crushing strength of cores in the following
manner.
The crushing strengths of cylinders with heights to diameter ratio between 1 & 2 may be corrected to
correspond to the standard cylinder of height to diameter ratio of 2 by multiplying with the correction factor obtained
from the following equation:
f = 0.11n + 0.78
Where f = Correction factor &

viii Specified workability.
Contractor
Page 117
Executive Engineer
6. When the truck arrives on site, the drum should always be speeded to about 10 to 15 RPM, for at least 3 minutes,
to make sure that the concrete is thoroughly mixed & uniform, before discharge.
7. Testing of Ready Mixed Concrete: The sampling & testing requirements for ready mixed concrete are the same as
those for site mixed concrete. As regards testing of workability, there is a bit of problem because the standard
requirement is that the sample should be made up of at least four portions taken at intervals from the complete
discharge. This obviously involves discharging all the concrete, by which time, it is too late, if the workability, is not
within the
specified limits. The contractor wants to make sure that the load is of the right workability, before discharge. The
following procedure is one, that has been accepted by many contractors, suppliers & clients & is recommended.
After making sure that the concrete has been uniformly mixed take a sample from the first 0.5 CuM of concrete
discharge & do a slump (of compacting factor) test on the sample. If the result complies with the specified
requirements, then the
load should be accepted. If the results are beyond limits, a further sample should be taken from the second 0.5 CuM
of the discharge & if this is satisfactory, the load should be accepted, if not, the concrete load shall be rejected, as the
same is not as per the specifications range. The specified slump is 50mm. while carrying out above tests, it may vary
by +10mm as per IS:4926-1976.
8. Twelve cubes shall be cast at the plant as well as at the site, where the concrete is placed.
9. The contractors shall send 3 flexural beams to the laboratory approved by MIDC for every ten slabs, or part
thereof, for testing flexural strength.
10. The admixture used shall conform to IS:9103-1979 reaffirmed on 1990 or ASTM C-494 of 92.
Contractor
Page 118
Executive Engineer
13. The defect liability period of 5 years will be the responsibility of the main tenderer.
14. It will be the sole right of the Administration to allow or disallow the use of ready mixed concrete in specific
works based on the site situation, number of works, distance of plant from the site of work etc.

depth of 15 cm for which payment shall be made separately under relevant item of road excavation. The
rate for embankment includes all the operations for preparing the bed for laying the embankment material.
1.5.3 Laying the Bank : Embankment material shall be placed in successive horizontal layers of 20 cm to
30 cm thickness extending to the full width of the embankment including the slopes at the level of the
particular location and 30 cm more on both sides to allow compaction of the full specified section. The
extra loose stuff at the edges shall be trimmed after completion of the embankment work without extra
cost leaving the correct section fully compacted. Keeping width of the bank initially less and widening it
later by dumping loose earth on the slopes shall not be permitted as the additional width and slopes may
remain loose and uncompacted and may not have been compacted as earlier carried out work. Similar
procedure to extend the embankment by dumping the material longitudinally shall also not be allowed
When boulders, broken stones, and similar hard materials are mixed up with the embankment materials,
care shall be taken to see that they are distributed uniformly in to the embankment and that no hollows are
left near them. No stone or hard material shall project above the top of any layer. Each layer of
embankment shall be watered, leveled and compacted as specified, before the succeeding layer is placed.
The surface of the embankment shall, at all times during construction, be maintained at such a cross fall to
shed water and prevent ponding. If bridges and culverts on the road are not completed in advance of
embankment work, a length of 15 m bank shall be left on each side of the structure and these lengths shall
dealt with later for placing the embankment work. The contractor shall construct temporary diversion road
till the work of culverts and bridges are completed and all type of traffic is allowed to be passed on these

The aggregate gradation as shown above represents the limits,which shall determine the suitability
of aggregate for use from the source of supply. The final gradation approved within these limits
shall be well graded from coarse to fine aggregate and shall not vary from the low limit on one sieve
to the high limit on the adjacent sieve or vice versa. Material passing 425- micron sieve shall have
plasticity not exceeding 6., and liquid limit not more than 25.
6.3 Conveyance : All lifts and leads in conveying the material to site shall be included in the rate as
specified. Contractor shall be responsible to see that the vehicles used for transporting the material
do not drop any of the contents on the road and thus cause nuisance to traffic. The contractor shall
be responsible for any damage or accident arising out of any such material. The contractor shall
remove such material at his risk and cost. The vehicle conveying the material shall not obstruct the
traffic. The contractor may use manpower scrapers, dozers, graders, shovels, dumpers, trucks,
trolleys, etc. for conveying the material. The labour, maintenance, any taxes, royalty, insurance,
depreciation etc. shall be deemed to be included in the item rate. No separate claim shall be
entertained.
6.4 Construction operations :
6.4.1 Provisions of Lateral Confinement of Aggregates :
Before starting with laying of G.S.B., necessary arrangements should be made for the lateral
confinement of GSB mix. This could be done by constructing side shoulders in advance to a
thickness corresponding to the compacted layer of the GSB. After the verge/hard shoulders are
ready, their inside edges should be trimmed vertical and the included area cleaned of all spilled
material, thereby setting stage for spread of the GSB.
6.4.2 Spreading and Compacting :
1. The sub-base material shall be spreaded evenly on the prepared sub-grade with the help of a
motor grader of adequate capacity, having arrangements for adjusting the required slope depth
and grade during laying.
2. The mixing shall be done by mechanical equipments unless permitted for manual mixing in
unavoidable circumstances.
3. Moisture contents of loose material shall be checked in accordance
with IS-2720 (part 2).

unavoidable circumstances.
3. Moisture contents of loose material shall be checked in accordance with IS-2720 (part 2).
Additional water may be added to maintain the optimum moisture if required.
4. Immediately after mixing, the mix shall be spread uniformly and evenly upon the prepared sub
grade/ sub base/ base in required quantities. In no case should these be dumped in heaps directly on
the area where these are to be laid nor shall their hauling over a partly completed stretch be
permitted. The mix shall be spread by approved mechanical devices. The material may be spread
either by a motor grader or a paver finisher. For portions where mechanical means cannot be used,
other approved means shall be used. The motor grader shall be capable of spreading the material
uniformly all over the surface. Its blade shall have hydraulic control for initial adjustments and
maintaining the same so as to achieve the specified slope and grade The paver finisher shall be selfpropelled having the following features:
1. Moving hoppers and suitable distribution mechanism.
2. The screed shall have tamping and vibrating arrangement for initial compaction to the layer as it
is spread without rutting or otherwise marring the surface profile.
3. The paver shall be equipped with necessary control mechanism so as to ensure that the finished
surface is free from surface blemishes. The surface of the mix shall be carefully checked with
templates and all high or low spots remedied by removing or adding aggregate as may be required.
The layer may be tested by depth blocks during construction. No segregation of large and fine
particles should be allowed. The aggregate as spread should be of uniform gradation with no
pockets of fine/coarse materials.
6.4.3 Rolling :
After mix has been laid to the required thickness, grade and cross fall (camber), the same shall be
uniformly compacted to the full width with roller of 8 to 10 tonnes static weight for thickness upto
100 mm and vibratory compactor for thickness more than 100 mm. In portions having
unidirectional cross fall/super elevation, rolling shall commence from the lower edge and progress
gradually towards the upper edge. Thereafter roller should progress parallel to the enterline of the
road, uniformly overlapping each preceding track by at least one-third width until the entire
surface has been rolled. Alternate strips of the roller shall be terminated in stops at least 1m away
from any preceding stop. On portions in camber, rolling should begin at the edge with the roller
running forward and backward until the edges have been firmly compacted. The roller shall then
progress gradually towards the center parallel to the centerline of the road uniformly overlapping
each of the preceding track by at least one third width until the entire surface has been rolled. Any
displacement occurring, as a result of reversing of the direction, of the roller or from any other
cause shall be corrected at once as specified and/or removed and made good. Along forms, kerbs,
walls or other places not accessible to the roller, the mixture shall be compacted with mechanical
tampers. Skin patching of an area without scarifying the surface to permit proper bonding of the
added material shall not be permitted. Rolling should not be done when the subgrade is soft or
yielding or when it causes as wave-like motions in the subbase/ base course or sub-grade. If
irregularities develop during rolling which exceed 12 mm when tested with a 3 meter straight edge.,
the surface should be loosened and premixed material added or removed as required before rolling
again so as to achieve a uniform surface conforming to the desired grade and cross fall. In no case
should the use of unmixed material be permitted to make up the depressions. Rolling should be
continued till the density achieved is at least 98% of the maximum dry density for the material as
Contractor

should the use of unmixed material be permitted to make up the depressions. Rolling should be
continued till the density achieved is at least 98% of the maximum dry density for the material as
determined by the method outlined in IS: 2720- Part VIII or as per BIS: 5835 whichever is more.
After completion the surface of any finished layer should be well-closed, free form movement under
compaction, equipment or any compaction, planes, ridges, cracks and loose material. All loose,
segregated or otherwise defective areas should be made good to the full thickness of the layer and re
-compacted.
6.4.4 Setting and Drying : After final compaction of G.S.B. course, the road shall be allowed to dry
overnight.

the source of supply. The final gradation approved within these Maharashtra limits shall be well graded from coarse to fine
aggregate and shall not vary from the lower limit on one sieve to the high limit on the adjacent sieve or vice versa. Material
passing 425- micron sieve shall have plasticity not exceeding 6.
Conveyance : Conveyance of material shall be in accordance with the directions issued by the Engineer-in-Charge.
Construction Operation :
Provisions of lateral confinement of aggregates :
Before starting with wet-mix macadam construction, necessary arrangements should be made for the lateral confinement of wet
mix. This could be done by constructing side shoulders in advance to a thickness corresponding to the compacted layer of the
wet-mix macadam course. After the verge/hard shoulders are ready, their inside edges should be trimmed vertical and the
included area cleaned of all spilled material, thereby setting stage for spread of the wet-mix macadam.
Preparation of Mix :
Wet-mix macadam shall be prepared in an approved mixing plant of suitable capacity having provision for controlled addition
of water. Optimum moisture for mixing shall be determined in accordance with IS: 2720 (Part VIII) after replacing the
aggregate fraction, retained on 22.4 mm sieve with material of 4.75 mm to 22.4 mm size. While adding water due allowance
should be made for evaporation losses. However at the time of compaction, water in the wet mix should not vary from the
optimum value by more than 0.5 percent. The mixed material should be uniformly wet and no segregation should be
permitted.
Spreading of Mix :
Immediately after mixing, the mix shall be spread uniformly and evenly upon the prepared sub grade/ sub base/ base in
required quantities. In no case should these be dumped in heaps directly on the area where the same is to be laid nor shall their
hauling over a partly completed stretch be permitted. The mix shall be spread by approved mechanical devices i.e. censor
paver. The material may be spread either by a motor grader or a paver finisher. For portions where mechanical means cannot be
used, other approved means shall be used. The motor grader shall be capable of spreading the material uniformly all over the
surface. Its blade shall have hydraulic control for initial adjustments and maintaining the same so as to achieve the specified
slope and grade. The paver finisher shall be self-propelled having the following features: 1. Moving hoppers and suitable
distribution mechanism . 2. The screed shall have tamping and vibrating arrangement for initial compaction to the layer as it is
spread without rutting or otherwise marring the surface profile. 3. The paver shall be equipped with necessary control
mechanism so as to ensure that the finished surface is free from surface blemishes. The surface of the mix shall be carefully
checked with templates and all high or low spots remedied by removing or adding aggregate as may be required. The layer may
be tested by depth blocks during construction. No segregation of large and fine particles should be allowed. The aggregate as
spread should be of uniform gradation with no pockets of fine/coarse materials.
Compaction of Mix :
After mix has been laid to the required thickness, grade and cross fall (camber), the same shall be uniformly compacted to the
full width with vibrator roller of 8 to 10 tonnes static weight. In portions having unidirectional cross fall/super elevation, rolling
shall commence from the lower edge and progress gradually towards the upper edge. Thereafter roller should progress parallel
to the centerline of the road, uniformly overlapping each preceding track by at least one third width until the entire surface has
been rolled. Alternated strips of the roller shall be terminated in stops at least 1m away from any preceding stop. On portions in
camber, rolling should begin at the edge with the roller running forward and backward until the edges have been firmly

camber, rolling should begin at the edge with the roller running forward and backward until the edges have been firmly
compacted. The roller shall then progress gradually towards the center parallel to the centerline of the road uniformly
overlapping each of the preceding track by at least one third width until the entire surface has been rolled. Any displacement
occurring, as a result of reversing of the direction, of the roller or from any other cause shall be corrected at once as specified
and/or removed and made good. Along forms, kerbs, walls or other places not accessible to the roller, the mixture shall be
compacted with mechanical tampers. Skin patching of an area without scarifying the surface to permit proper bonding of the
added material shall not be permitted. Rolling should not be done when the subgrade is soft or yielding or when it causes as
wave-like motions in the subbase/ base course or sub-grade. If irregularitiesdevelop during rolling which exceed 12 mm when
tested with a 3 meter straight edge, the surface should be loosened and premixed material added or removed as required before
rolling the same again so as to achieve a uniform surface conforming to the desired grade and cross fall. In no case should the
use of unmixed material be permitted to make up the depressions. Rolling should be continued till the density achieved is at
least 98% of the maximum dry density for the material as determined by the method outlined in IS: 2720- Part VIII or as per
BS: 5835 whichever is more. After compaction the surface of any finished layer should be well-closed, free form movement
under compaction, equipment or any compaction planes, ridges, cracks and loose material. All loose, segregated or otherwise
defective areas should be made good to the full thickness of the layer and re-compacted.
Setting and Drying : After final compaction of wet- mix macadam course, the road shall be allowed to dry overnight.
Opening to Traffic : No vehicular traffic of any kind shall be allowed on the finished wet-mix macadam surface till it has
dried and the bituminous binder/wearing course has been laid. In exceptional case, construction traffic may be allowed with the
approval of the Engineerin- Charge for short durations when the course is completely dry and vehicles move over the full
width avoiding any rutting or uneven compaction and any defect developed due to such permission the same shall be made
good by the contractor at his risk and cost.
Rectification of Surface Irregularity : Where the surface irregularity of the wet-mix course exceeds the permissible
tolerances or where the course is otherwise defective due to sub-grade soil getting mixed with the aggregates, the full thickness
of the layer shall be scarified over the affected areas, reshaped with added premixed material removed and replaced with fresh
premixed material as applicable and re-compacted in accordance in lengths 5 m long and 3 m wide. In no case shall depressions
be filled up with unmixed and ungraded material or fines.
Item to Include : All material, conveyance of material, labour, machinery, tools and equipment, taxes, octroi and duties and
royalties for material, fuel and maintenance, depreciation of machinery etc. shall be included in the item. The laying and

Mode of Measurement and Payment : The contract rate shall be for one cubic meter of material supplied at site in stacks of
approved size. When the material is stacked in stacks of one uniform size, smallest stack may be chosen in the particular km or
unit section and measured for its length, breadth and depth. The cubic contents of this heap shall be multiplied by the number
of such stacks in the km or unit section to arrive at the quantity in the particular km or unit section. The Engineer-in-Charge
may measure any other stacks also for verification. When the sizes of stacks are not uniform, each stack shall be measured
individually. The dimensions shall be measured correct to two places of decimal of a meter and quantity worked out correct to
two places of decimals of a cubic meter. If there is reason to believe that the stacks are very loose and are having unduly large
hollows and or materials not satisfying the specifications, the stacks may be got opened and restacked properly after removing
the inferior material as directed by the Engineer- incharge at the contractors cost. The measurements of such a stack shall then
be taken and if they are less than those of a normal heap, the quantity of the restacked heap shall be multiplied by the no. of
stacks to arrive at the quantity in the particular unit or length. No deduction shall be made for voids. Material shall not be used
until the full quantity is collected in km or unit length and measured. All stacks measured shall be marked with lime wash
bands to distinguish them to avoid double measurement. If the material is found to be of inferior quality or of size not
satisfying the requirements, the same may be rejected entirely. All labour, materials etc. required for measuring, restacking,
checking, lime washing, etc. shall be at the cost of contractor.

stacks coming in the way of or obstructing the traffic, removed at the cost of the contractor and the
contractor shall not be entitled to claim any loss or damage to the materials on that account. The stacking
operations shall be started at the point farthest from the quarry and carried towards the nearest point. The
stacks shall not be laid at such places where they are likely to be damaged on account of the traffic,
washing out by rains or floods or drainage, slides of the banks or the slopes of cutting. The contractor
without extra claims shall make any loss on account of these or such other reasons good. As far as
possible the rubble shall be stacked evenly on one side of the road only and in such quantities per unit
length as will be required for that particular length or as ordered by the Engineer-in-Charge.
Special Points : The contractor shall be responsible for obtaining consent of owners of quarries and

(4) All sorts of compensations involved in the execution of the item.
(5) Opening up of new quarries or reopening old ones including removal of overburden.
Mode of Measurement and Payment : The contract rate shall be for one cubic meter of rubble supplied
at site in stacks of approved size. When the rubble stacking in instructed in to be of uniform size, smallest
stack may be chosen in the particular km or unit section and measured for its length, breadth and depth.
The cubic contents of this stack shall be multiplied by the number of such stack in the km or unit section
to arrive at the quantity in the particular km or unit section. The Engineer may measure any other heaps
also for verification. When the sizes of stacks are not uniform, each stack shall be measured individually.
The dimensions shall be measured correct to two places of decimal of a meter and quantity worked out
correct to two places of decimals of a cubic meter. If there is reason to believe that the stacks are very
loose and are having unduly large hollows and or materials not satisfying the specifications, the stacks
may be got opened and restacked properly after removing the inferior material by the Engineer-in-Charge
at the cost of the contractor. The measurements of such a stack shall then be taken and if they are less than

3.7 Mode of Measurement and Payment : The contract rate shall be for one cubic meter of metal
supplied at site in stacks of approved size. When the metal is specified to be stacked in stacks of one
uniform size, smallest stack may be chosen in the particular km or unit section and measured for its
length, breadth and depth. The cubic contents of this stack shall be multiplied by the number of such
stacks in the km or unit section to arrive at the quantity in the particular km or unit section. The Engineerin-Charge may measure any other stacks also for verification. When the sizes of stacks are not uniform,
each stack shall be measured individually. The dimensions shall be measured correct to two places of
decimal of a meter and quantity worked out correct to two places of decimals of a cubic meter. If there is
reason to believe that the stacks are very loose and are having unduly large hollows and or materials not
satisfying the specifications, the stacks may be got opened and restacked properly after removing the
inferior material as directed by the Engineer- in- Charge by the contractor at his cost. The measurements
of such a stack shall then be taken and if they are less than those of a normal heap, the quantity of the
restacked stack shall be multiplied by the no. of stacks to arrive at the quantity in the particular unit or
length. No deduction shall be made for voids. Metal shall not be used until the full quantity is collected in
km or particular unit and measured. All stacks measured shall be marked with lime wash bands to
distinguish them to avoid double measurement. If the material is found to be of inferior quality or of size
not satisfying the requirements, the same shall be rejected summarily. All labour, materials etc. required
for measuring, restacking, checking, lime washing, etc. shall be at the cost of contractor.

Providing and laying UPVC pipes of standard make in line and level including necessary labour, bends,
tees, fixtures etc. and testing the pipes complete.
U.P.V.C pipes for weep holes
75 mm diameter
110 mm diameter
Specification:
General : The item covers specifications for providing and laying UPVC Pipes with all fixtures, bends
tees etc. for drainage lines and rain water down take pipes.
Material :
Rigid (Unplasticized) PVC Pipes : are widely accepted for applications such as cold water services
internal/external water supplies systems, water mains, rain water system, soil waste piping system, and
under ground (sewage pipes) drainage piping system. Rigid PVC is three times as rigid as polyethylene. It
is also much stronger and will withstand much higher pressure for a given wall thickness. Joints can easily
be made in rigid PVC pipes by solvent welding, and a whole range of injection moulded matching fittings
and specials are available for these pipes. Rigid PVC pipes are normally available in the following shades:
White/Cream
Light to Dark Gray
Black.
In general rigid PVC is resistant to most inorganic acids alkalies and salts, as well as many organic
chemicals. It is quite resistant to most effluents, salt water and plating solutions, corrosive fumes, soils
which lead to its applications over a wide field. The material is also perfectly safe with potable water,
whether hard or soft, and in the former case it tends to retard the formation of scale. Those materials,
which do attack it, include concentrated oxidizing acids, esters, ketones, aromatic and chlorinated
hydrocarbons, organonitro compounds, organoamino compounds, lacquer solvents and acetic anhydride.
The pipes shall be reasonably round and shall be supplied in straight lengths with socketed ends. The
internal and external surfaces of pipes shall be smooth & clean, free form grooving and other defects. The
ends shall be cleanly cut and square with the axis of the pipe. The pipe shall be designated by external
diameter and shall conform to IS: 4985 (revised) in all respects.
Fittings: Fittings used shall be of the same make as that of PVC pipes, injection moulded or made in cast
iron and shall conform to Indian Standard wherever available.
Laying :
Trenches : The trench bottom shall be carefully examined for the presence of hard objects such as flints,
rock protrudes or tree roots etc. Pipes shall be bedded in sand or soft soil
free form rock and gravel. Back

rock protrudes or tree roots etc. Pipes shall be bedded in sand or soft soil free form rock and gravel. Back
fill 15cm above the pipe shall also be of fine sand or soft soil. The width of trench shall not be less than
outside dia metre of pipe plus 15cm on either side of pipe In case of gravel soils, pipes shall be laid at
least 90cms below the ground level (measured from surface of the ground to the top of the pipe).
For Rain Water down take Pipes : The pipe shall fixed along the surface of wall in true vertical line.
The pipe shall be fixed to the wall by the M.S. clamps,which shall be provided at a distance not more
than 2.0 m.withPVC clip To cover the offsets in the masonry offsets shall be used. At the cover end of
pipe shoe shall be provided the PVC clamp shall be fixed at every joint in pipe/fixture/offset, shoe.
Jointing :
Solvent Welded Joints : Non Heat Application Method : In this method, instead of forming a socket
on one pipe and spigot on other, an injection moulded socket fitting or coupler is used, with a provision to
take in the pipes at both ends. After properly cleaning ends of both the pipes the solvent cements are
applied on the surfaces to be jointed and the joint is made at ambient temperature. Injection moulded
fittings only shall be used in preference to fabricated fittings. Only solvent recommended by the
manufacturers of the pipes shall be used and full load on the joints applied only after 24 hours. The
pipeshall be cut perpendicular to the axis of the pipe length with a metal cutting saw. Pipe ends have to be
beveled slightly with a beveling tool (Remer) at an angle of about 30 degree. The total length of insertion
socket (injection moulded socket or couplet) shall be marked on the pipe and checked how far the pipe
end could be inserted into the fitting socket. Attempt shall be made to push the pipe to marked distance, if
not possible it shall at least be pushed for 2/3 of this distance.
Dust, oil, water grease etc. shall be wiped out with a dry cloth from the surface. Further the grease should
be thoroughly removed with a suitable solvent, such as methylene chloride or as an alternative the outside
surface of the pipe and the inside of the fitting may be roughened with emery paper.
Generous coatings of solvent cement shall be evenly applied on the inside of the fittings around the
circumference of the full length of insertion and on the outside of the pipe end up to the marked line with
a brush of suitable dimension. The pipe shall be pushed into the fitting socket and held for 2 minutes as
otherwise the pipe may come out of the fitting due to the slippery quality of cement and the tapering
inside bore of the fitting. The surplus cement on the pipe surfaces shall be wiped out. If the solvent
cement has dried up too much or the tapering of the socket is too steep, jointing will not be proper and
pipe will come out of the fitting.
In summer months joints shall be made preferably early in the morning or in the evening when
surrounding environment is cooler. This will prevent joint from pulling apart when the pipe cools off at
night. Heat application method for jointing shall not be allowed.
Flanged Joints : For jointing PVC pipes particularly of larger size to valves and vessels and larger size
metal pipes where the tensile strength is required the joint is made by the compression of a gasket or ring
seal in the face of CI flange. Flanges solvent welded to the PVC pipes shall be supplied by the
manufacturers.
Rubber Ring Joints : Rubber ring joints can provide a watertight seal but do resist pull. As such these
may be used only as repairs collar and for jointing pipes larger than 110mm. Such joints may be provided
on pipes, which are buried in the ground and supported throughout on bedding so that they are not subject
to movement and longitudinal pull. The material of rubber ring shall conform to IS : 5382-1985, where
aggressive soil are met with, synthetic rubbers perform better for jointing. The ring shall be housed in a
groove formed in plastic or metallic housing. The ring shape and the method of compressing the ring vary
considerably in different type of joints. Most joints often require the application of lubricating paste,
Contractor

considerably in different type of joints. Most joints often require the application of lubricating paste,
which shall be procured from the manufacturer of PVC pipes.
Measurements : The length shall be measured in running metre correct to a cm for the finished work
which shall include PVC fittings such as bends, tees, elbows, reducer, crosses, plugs, sockets, nipples and
nuts, but exclude, taps, valves, etc. All pipes and fittings shall be classified according to their outside
diameter. Reducer shall be measured along with the larger diameter pipe. As far as jointing is concerned
even though explained in foregoing paras the jointing of pipes shall be carried out as per the code of
practice if specified by the manufacture and the deviations of any in the code of practice by the
manufacturers be strictly taken care off.
Rate : The rate shall be per RM which include the cost of labour and material in all the operation
described above except excavation in trenches, sand filling all around the pipes, metal pipe used for
encasing PVC pipe and anchor blocks, unless otherwise specified.

or compacted sand or gravel, which shall be paid separately under relevant item if included in this tender.
In cases where the natural foundation is inadequate the pipes shall be laid either in concrete cradle
supported on proper foundations or on any other suitably designed structure. If concrete cradle bedding is
used, the depth of concrete below the bottom of the pipe shall be at least 1/4th of the internal diameter of
the pipe subject to the min. of 10 cm and a maximum of 30 cm. The concrete shall extend up the sides of
the pipe at least to a distance of 1/4th of the outside diameter of pipes for 300 mm and over in diameter.
The pipe shall be laid in this concrete bedding before the concrete has set. Pipes laid in trenches in earth
shall be bedded evenly and firmly and as far up the haunches of the pipe as to safely transmit the load
expected from the backfill through the pipe to the bed. This shall be done either by excavating the bottom
of the trench to fit the curve of the pipe or by compacting the earth under around the curve of the pipe to
form an even bed. Necessary provision shall be made for joints wherever required.

2 . Plastering shall be started from the top and worked down towards the floor. All putlog holes shall be
properly filled in advance of the plastering as the scaffolding is being taken down. To ensure even
thickness and a true surface, plaster about 15x15 cm shall be first applied, horizontally and vertically, at
not more than 2 m intervals over the entire surface to serve as gauge. The surfaces of these gauged areas
shall be truly in the plane of the finished plaster surface. The mortar shall then be laid on the wall,
between the gauges with trowel. The mortar shall be applied in a uniform surface slightly more than the
specified thickness and then brought to a true surface by working a wooden straight edge reaching across
the gauges, with small upward and side ways movements at a time. Finally the surface shall be finished
off true with trowel or wooden float according as a smooth or a sandy granular texture is required.
Excessive trawling or over working the float shall be avoided. During this process a solution of lime putty
shall be applied on the surface to make the later workable.

wetted with lime putty before plaster is applied to the adjacent areas, to enable the two to properly joint
together. Plastering work shall be closed at the end of the day
on the body of wall and not nearer than 15 cm to any corners or arises. It shall not be closed on the body
of the features such as plasters, bands and cornices, nor at the corners of arises. Horizontal joints in plaster
work shall not also occur on parapet tops and coping as these invariably lead to leakage. No portion of the
surface should be left out initially to be patched up later on.
5. The surface of the under coat on which the punning is to be done shall be left rough. The punning shall
be applied, when the under coat is still green. The mortar for punning shall be applied in a uniform layer
slightly more than 3 mm thick between gauged pads, with which to ensure an even and uniformly thick
surface by frequent checking with a wooden straight edge. It shall be finished to an even and smooth
surface with trowels.
Finish : The plaster shall be finished to a true level and plumb surface and to the proper degree of
smoothness as required. The work shall be tested frequently as the work proceeds with a true straight edge
not less than 2.5 m long and with plumb bobs. All horizontal lines and surfaces shall be tested with a
level and all jambs and corners with a plumb bob as the work proceeds.
Thickness : The thickness of the plaster specified shall be measured exclusive of the thickness of key i.e.
grooves or open joints in brick work. The average thickness of plaster shall not be less than the specified
thickness. The minimum thickness over any portion of the surface shall not be less than specified
thickness by more than 3 mm. The average thickness should be regulated at the time of plastering by
keeping suitable thickness of the gauges. Extra thickness required in doubling behind rounding of corners
at junction of wall or in plastering of masonry cornices etc. shall not be paid for.
Curing : Curing shall be started 24 hours after finishing the plaster. The plaster shall be kept wet for a
