5.0 WORK METHODOLOGY

5.1 Planning of Work

The piping route shall be checked as per the construction drawings. Any
adjustments of the installation due to the site constraint, shall be obtained
from the resident engineer and approval must be granted before proceeding.

5.2 Installation

The Land Surveyor shall carry the survey setting out and all piping routes &
piling location shall be indicated on the ground by placing sand or cement
along the pipe route. Checked shall be carried out by the site superintendent
before proceed the work.

Upon reaching the formation level (setting as confirmation height from ground),
piling machine will be in to hit the concrete piles as pipe support due to
uneven land surface and all pipes and fittings shall be cleaned of soil and dust
and free from crack and distortion.

Connection of pipe to pipe shall be fillet welded and pipe to fitting shall be
flanged end via bolts and nuts. Where pipes to be jointed by welding it shall be
carried out by the highly skilled welder.

Where pipes are to be jointed by the sockets and spigots to be welded shall
be cleaned, the spigot end shall be forced inside so that the spherical
surfaces are in contact and that the gap between the pipes at the end of the
spigot is not more than 1.5mm. The weld shall be of the convex full fillet type
for lap welded joints and before welded over any previous joints, wire
brushing shall clean all slag. All pipes and fittings installed in locations, which
may be subject to mechanical damage, must be suitably protected, including
during the construction stages.

In the event of bends, tees, valves jointing shall be carried out by flanged
welded to the pipe. When making a flanged joint, wire brushed the pipe end to
remove any protective material adhering to the coating and exposed the metal
surface, welded carefully in position remain undistorted and fastened the bolts
to the pipe and fitting with a rubber ring in between to prevent leakages.

Mass concrete or trust blocks shall be lay to the underside of pipe at all points
of deflection in the pipeline (bends, tees, reductions, expansion, valves, etc.)
and the trust blocks must have cured for 24 hours before pressure testing is
allowed. The inspection and water tightness test to be carried out and confirm
by the Resident Engineer (R.E.).

Upon completion of testing (to the satisfaction of the Resident Engineer), all
the final works shall be carried out strictly according to the construction
drawing and specifications with proper procedure and to the satisfaction of the
R.E.

5.3 Pressure Testing

After a length of pipeline has been completed it shall be tested as a whole

against stop ends. The testing shall be carried out over length of
approximately two kilometer where possible between washout or over
crossings or length pre-determined by R.E. all valves shall be checked before
the test to ensure that all in working order. The length of pipeline to be tested
must seal with end cap with an extended 1inch GI pipe come with stopcock
together with a pressure gauge. The test pressure to be applied shall be
determined by the R.E. and generally at 1.5 times the working pressure or
proposed at 12 bars. Clean water shall be filled and pumped to the required
pressure and maintained testing for 24 hours. After a period of 3 hours or a
pressure fall of 9 meter whichever is the sooner, pumping shall be resumed
and the quantity required to be pumped, in order to restore the test pressure,
divided by the time, shall be measure of the rate of loss. The pipeline under
testing shall be deemed to have passed if the leakage does not exceed 10%
of the proposed 12 bars.

The R.E. will attend all testing and issued a certificate for pipeline passed the
pressure test. Likewise the contractor shall rectify and locate any leakages
and make well all joints to the satisfaction of the R.E. and carry out retest until
the permissible losses are complied with.

6.0 INSPECTION AND TESTING

6.1 In-progress Installation Inspection

The in-process inspection shall be carried out to ensure conformance of the

installation works.
