payment is not realised with bank, in that case system will not be able to validate the
payment and will not allow the bidder to complete his Bid Preparation stage resulting in
nonparticipation in the aforesaid e-tender.
Note:
Notes:

b) Bleeding should be measured in a metal cylinder with an internal diameter of
approximately, 100 mm with height of approximately 100 mm. During the test the
container should be covered to prevent evaporation.
c) The compressive strength of the hardened grout after 28 days, at a temperature of 20o
C and relative humidity approximately 70 percent should be less than 300 kg / square
Cm., the method of measurement being that laid down by RELEM/Cem bureau.
d) Products other than cement-based grouts may be used after following acceptable
agreement tests.
a) Cement normally used should be Portland cement. The use of Other cement may be
authorised following agreement tests.
b) If aggregates are used, they should consist of silicious fine aggregates, finely ground
limestone crush or fine sand.
c) Acceptable admixtures may be use if tests have shown that their use improves the
properties of the grout e.g. by increasing workability reducing bleeding containing air
for expanding the grout. Admixtures must be free from any product liable to damage
steel or the grout itself, such as chlorides, nitrates, sulphides, sulphates etc.
e) After being mixed the grout should be kept in continuous movement. It is essential that
the grout should be free from humps.
a) Injection should be carried out with as little delay as possible after tensioning of the
steel. If for structural reasons. It has to be put off protection of the steel by methods or
products which will not prevent the ultimate adherence of the injected grout should be
ensured.
b) The method of injecting should ensure complete filling of the ducts and complete
surrounding of the steel. To check this, it is advisable to compare the volume of the
spaces to be filled by the injected grout with the quantity of grout actually injected.
Equipment for this check should be installs at the entry and exit points of the grout.
d) The pump should be titled with an effective control against build-up of excessive
pressure.
e) In all cases the duct should be cleaned out the compressed air before injecting grout in
unlined ducts it is advisable to flush the duct with water to wet the concrete, except in
cold weather. After flushing excess water should be removed by suitable means.
f) The connection between the nozzle of the injection pipe and the ducts should be
germetic so that air cannot be sucked in.
g) Injection must be continuous and should not be internuted. It should be slow enough to
avoid producing segregation of the grout.
h) In cold weather special precautions should be taken when injecting. If the temperature
is not likely to hinder setting, grouting may continue using a frost proof grout containing
a certain proportion of constrained air generally 6 to 10 percent.
i) Injection must be continued until the expulsion of the grout flowing from the free end
and vent opening is equal to that of the injected grout.
j) After a certain time it is recommended that turner injections should be carried out to fill
the possible creices.

following modifications.
Delete last para of clause 304.4 and read as follows in case of bridge Lump sum
contract no separate measurement shall be made for foundations, sealing dewatering,
including pumping and its shall be deemed to be incidental to the work.
All these preliminary tests approvals etc. shall be got done well in advance by the
contractor before any concreting is contemplated. Failure on the part of the contractor
to do so an the consequent delay in the completion of the works will not entitle him for
any compensation whatsoever either financially or by way of extension time.
Water cement ratio in all elements shall be as per table 1700.2 and 1700.3 of
M.O.R.T.H. specifications for Road and Bridge works as possible.
WORKMANSHIP:
During hot weather the Contractor shall ensure that the constituent materials are
sufficiently cool to prevent the concrete from stiffening in the interval between its
discharge from the mixer and its final disposition. Hand mixing shall not be permitted.
For concreting work during extreme weather provisions of Section 1712 of M.O.R.T.H.
specification shall be followed in addition to the following and as directed by the
Engineer.
Concreting under water shall be done by tremie pipe or drop bottom bucket following
provision of section 1711 of M.O.R.T.H. specification unless otherwise directed by the
Engineer. Concrete shall contain 10% more cement than required for the specified mix
placed in dry condition.
3:8 CURING :
Curing shall be done as per provision of section 1713 of M.O.R.T.H. specification and
as directed by the Engineer.
Approved curing compounds may be used in lieu of moist curing but only with
permission of Executive Engineer. Such approved compounds shall be applied to all
exposed surfaces of the concrete as soon as possible after the concrete has set.
Immediately on removal of forma, the R.C.C. work shall be examined by the Engineer
before any defects are made good.
i) Surface defects with require repair when forms are removed usually consist of
bulges due to movement of forms ridges at form joints, honeycombed areas,
damage resulting from the stripping of forms and bolt hole Bulges and ridges
are to be removed by careful chipping or tooling and the surface is the bed with
a grinding stone. Honey combed and other defective areas must be chipped
out, the edges being cut as straight as possible and perpendicular to the
surface, or preferably slightly undercut to provide a key at the edge of the
patch. Bolt holes shall be closed by cement mortar to ensure through filling.
ii) Shallow patches are first treated with a coat of thin grout composed, of one part
of cement and one part of sand and then filled with mortar similar to that used
in the concrete. The mortar is placed in layers not more than 10mm. thick and
each layer is given a scratch finish to secure bond with the succeeding layer.
The last layer is finished to match the surrounding concrete by floating, rubbing
or tooling on formed surface by pressing the form material against the patch
while the mortar is still wet.
iii) Large and deep patches require filling up with concrete held in place by forms.
Such patches are to be reinforced and carefully doweled to the hardened
concrete.
iv) The same amount of care to cure the material in the patches should be taken
as with the whole structure, Curing must be started as soon as possible after
the patch is finished to prevent early drying. Damp hessian may be used but in
some locations. It may be difficult to hold it in place. A membrance curing

grooved boards of uniform thickness of not less than 45mm. These boards
should be brought and dressed on both faces as well as on all sides.
b) A rough texture is obtained by the use of new sawn boards with stressed
square edges. In all types of formwork to form finished exposed concrete, only
non-staining mould oil supplied by an approved manufacturer shall be used.
The repetitive uses of the same formwork to cast form finished exposed concrete shall
be as decided by the Engineer and in no case the formwork not guaranteed to produce
the required form finish to the satisfaction of the Engineer shall be used.
The exposed concrete shall have uniform finish. The finish of the concrete when
shuttering and formwork is removed will generally be without any blemish and will be
such as will not required touch up. Slight touch-up for a small spot or two if necessary

correctly and accurately in accordance with IS : 2502 Code of practice for Bending and
fixing Bars for Concrete Reinforcement. Preferably bars of full length shall be used and
shall not be bent or straightened in a manner that will injure the properties of materials.
Over- lapping of bars, where necessary shall be done as per Indian Standards and as
directed by the Engineer.
steel wire of hot less than 1mm in size and conforming to IS : 280-1978 to make the
skeleton of the steel work rigid so that the reinforcement does not get displaced during
the deposition of concrete.
a) In case of beam and slab construction, pre-cast cover blocks in cement mortar
1:2 (1 cement:2 Coarse sand) about 7cm x 7cm section and .of thickness equal
to the specified cover shall be placed between the bars and shuttering so as to
secure and maintain the requisite cover of concrete over reinforcement.
b) In case of dowels for columns an walls, the vertical bars shall be kept in
position by means of timber templates slots accurately cut in them or with block
of cement mortar (1:2) suitably tied to the reinforcement. Timber templates
shall be removed after the concrete has progressed up to a level just below
them.
c) Layers of bars shall be separately by spacer bars at closer intervals Bars shall
not be allowed to sag between supports.
d) Necessary stay blocks, metal chairs spacers, metal hangers, supporting wires
etc. or other subsidiary reinforcement which are not shown in the drawing but
may be necessary to keep the reinforcement firmly in its correct position shall
be provided. The cost of such subsidiary reinforcement will not be paid and
shall be included in the steel rate are quoted.
Reinforcement left projecting from newly placed shall be supported in such a way that
there is no sag or risk or damage to the newly placed concrete. The projecting bars
which are likely to be exposed for a long time shall be protected by a thick coat of neat
cement paste. These shall be thoroughly cleaned and wire brushed before depositing
fresh concrete.
Coupling of bars shall be done as per Section 1605 of MORTH Specifications unless
otherwise directed by Engineer.
a) The components of this type of joint shall be at least 2 mm. thick corrugated copper
plate placed slightly below the wearing coat, 20 mm. thick compressible fibre board to protect
the edges, 20 mm. thick pre-moulded joint filler filling the gap upto the top level of the wearing
coat, sealed with a joint sealing compound.
b) The material used for filling expansion joint shall be bitumen impregnated felt,
elastomer or any other suitable material, as specified on the drawings. Impregnated felt shall

i) Joint materials spilt or splashed onto finished surfaces of the bridge during joint filling
operations shall be removed and the surfaces made good to the Engineer’s approval.
j) No joint shall be sealed until inspected by the Engineer and approval is given to
proceed with the work.
iii) Joints should be positioned where they are readily accessible for preparation and
concreting. The preparation of the joints is more likely to be satisfactory where the
cross-section is relatively small, and where reinforcement is not congested.
iv) As far as possible, joints for fair-faced concrete should be located where they
conform with the architectural features of the construction. Unless they are marked in
this way, the positions of the joints are always obvious, even when the concrete is
given a textured finish.
vi) Joints should be located away from regions of maximum stress caused by loading,
particularly where shear and bond stresses are high. In beams and slabs, therefore,
joints should not generally be near the Construction joints between slabs and ribs in
composite beams should be avoided.
• Laitance, both on the horizontal and vertical surfaces of the concrete, should
be removed before fresh concrete is cast. The surface should be roughened to
promote good adhesion. Various methods for removal can be used, but they should
not dislodge the coarse aggregate particles. Concrete may be brushed with a stiff
brush soon after casting while the concrete is still fresh, and while it has only slightly
stiffened.
• Fully- hardened concrete should be treated with mechanical hand tools or grit
blasting, taking care not to split or crack soft aggregate particles.
• The best time for treating the joints is a matter of Judgement because it
depends on the rate of setting and hardening (which is itself dependent on the
temperature of the concrete.) Before further concrete is cast, the surface should be
thoroughly cleaned to removed debris and accumulated rubbish, one effective method
being by air jet.
• Where there is likely to be even a short delay before placing the next concrete
lift, protruding reinforcement should be protected. Before the next lift is placed, rust,
loose mortar, or other contamination should be removed from the bars and, where
conditions particularly aggressive and there has been a substantial delay between lifts,
the concrete should be cut back to expose the bars for a length of about 50 mm to
ensure that contaminated concrete is removed.
• In all cases, when construction joints are made, it is essential to ensure that the
Joint surface is not contaminated with release agents, dust, or curing membrance, and
that the reinforcement is fixed firmly in position at the correct cover.
• When fresh concrete is cast against existing nature concrete or masonry, the
older surface should be thoroughly cleaned and soaked to prevent the absorption of
water from the new concrete. Standing water should be removed shortly before the
new concrete is placed and the new concrete should be thoroughly vibrated in the
region of the joint.
In respect of elastomeric bearing intended for use in the superstructure of bridge the

PART – II
1. PRELIMINARY :
I) It will be necessary to provide additional steel in the pier and abutment cap
immediately below. Each bearing as per the sketch shown below, take up the heavy
compressive stresses.
|l) In all cases where Neoprene bearings are used to support the decking, proper
arrangements and facilities, for lifting up the Decking, Removing and replacing the
Neoprene Bearings in future (if the need arises) shall be made by modifying the
Design of Abutment/pier cap and decking etc. As per the design requirements. In case
of solid slab decking and T-Beam and slab decking type Drawings No.lll-A-1/UI 973
T.P. B1 (iv) and Drawing No.lll-A-2-1 /1972/ T.P.B1 (v) Respectively of Designs Circle
B. & C. shall be referred and followed.
Ill) In case of skew bridges, unless otherwise specified, the Neoprene bearings shall be
placed with their two sides parallel to the length of the Girder as shown in the sketch
below. The size of the pier cap shall be modified, in case the bearings require more
space due to skewness.
During concreting of the pier/ abutment cap a continuous strip of width 'B' slightly more
than width of bearing and depth of 10 to 15mm shall be kept in concrete. This can be
done by removing concrete carefully, when Green.
f) A few days before placing of superstructure concrete, the strip as formed in (n) above
shall be completely filled in by stiff cement mortar 1:1 proportion, with water cement
Ratio not exceeding that of Parent concrete of pier Cap. Very fine sand with size below
3mm shall be used for preparing this mortar. The top surface shall be perfectly leveled.
In addition to the certificate to be obtained from the office of the Directorate of Indian
regarding the metalogical details and tests, the samples of metal used in casting in
preparation of roller and reocker bearing, 10 percent of the bearing when completed
shall be tested by Engineer or his authorized agent for 1.5 limes the desired results
duly certified in writing by the Engineer or his authorized agent. No bearing shall be
allowed to be used on the works in case the test results are not satisfactory, all the
remaining extra number of bearing as may be decided by the Engineer or his agent
shall have to he tested and only these bearings which stand the test satisfactory are
certified as passed by the Engineer or his agent shall only be allowed to be used on
work and the contractor(s) are not have any right for claim for rejected bearings.
III) The bearings shall be placed on the green mortar by light temping if necessary. The
mortar shall be cured for at least 7 days. The bearing shall be removed-and refixed by
using Epoxy Grout (Minimum 3mm. Thick) at top and bottom plate of the Restrained
Neoprene; bearing. This is very important for submersible bearings Alternatively if
there is some difficulty for applying epoxy mortar to top plate, the bearing should be
embedded into the slab soffit by 6mm Recess.
A) The Area around the bearings shall be filled with well Rammed, selected- fine damp
Sand, the thickness being equal to that of the bearing. The sand shall be covered with
polythene layer. The side gap between soffit and pier cap may be sealed off by timber
packing pieces.
B) The rest of the Centering shall be erected as usual. The reinforcement for the solid
slab shall be fixed in position as usual. During concreting great care shall be taken to
avoid puncturing of the polythene membrance and
C) Displacement of Bearings if polythene get punctured, slurry, from concrete will flow
into the sand below and make its later removal difficult.
(I),(ii) and (in) Same as per for 2 (b)(i)<(ii) and (iii) Above.
