DESCRIPTION OF THE METHODOLOGY AND WORK PLAN IN RESPONDING TO
THE TERMS OF REFERENCE
1.0 UNDERSTANDING OF THE OBJECTIVE AND TOR

1.1 Background

The Binaytara Foundation Cancer Center (BTFCC), is a 25-bed cancer hospital located in
Janakpurdham, Nepal that provides cancer prevention, early detection, cancer treatment, cancer
surgery, radiology services, and palliative care services. Janakpurdham is a city in Nepal’s province 2.
The province is the most populous of all 7 provinces in Nepal; however, it didn’t have any cancer
center until the BTFCC opened its doors in the first week of December 2018. As the first and only
cancer center in this region, the BTFCC serves cancer patients from southeast Nepal as well as from
nearby Indian state of Bihar.

The Binaytara Foundation Cancer Center is staffed by highly qualified physicians, nurses, and other
staff who are supported by experts in the USA, India, and Nepal via weekly tumor boards and video-
conferencing to help manage patient health issues utilizing the latest evidence. BTFCC is perhaps the
only healthcare center in Nepal to have all-electronic patient scheduling and health record system.
BTFCC features state-of-the-art laboratory equipment, ultrasound, and other machinery to provide
high-quality care to our patients.

The establishment of BTFCC comes at a time when Nepal and the rest of South Asia is experiencing
a surging burden of noncommunicable diseases such as cancer. Being a developing country,
oncology in Nepal is currently in its infancy. With little access to care, mortality rates due to cancer in
the area are disproportionately higher than in developed countries. The Cancer Index lists Nepal’s
cancer incidence as 141.6 per 100,000 population with a high mortality rate. Cancer incidence is likely
much higher, due to the country’s poor reporting tools and significant lack of infrastructure.

The Binaytara Foundation Cancer Center will be a step toward changing the culture of healthcare in
Nepal. Along with providing cancer care services, it’ll also serve as a hub for research and education.

Mission

To provide cutting-edge cancer care to patients by incorporating research, technology, and


compassion into evidence-based preventive, curative, and palliative treatment that improves the
quality of life of our patients and their families. BTFCC will foster a culture of care where all patients
are treated with respect and dignity regardless of who they are.

Vision

The BTFCC will be the leader in cancer care in South Asia by pioneering cancer research, cancer
education, and advocacy for patients.

The BCT Hospital Building has been planned to be constructed in Lohana, Ward No. 25,
Janakpurdham Sub Metropolitan City.

1.2 Study Area

The proposed sites are located at Lohana, Ward No. 25, Janakpurdham Sub Metropolitan City.
Janakpurdham is a sub-metropolitan city in Dhanusa District, Province No. 2, Nepal. The city is a hub
for religious and cultural tourism. The city was founded in the early 18th century. According to
tradition, storyteller indicates an earlier city known as Janakpurdham existed in the area, which was
supposedly the capital of the Videha dynasty that ruled the Mithila region in ancient times.

Janakpur is one of the fastest developing cities of Nepal and is the largest sub-metropolitan city in the
country. The city has good health care facilities, a number of parks, private schools, colleges, and
internet service providers. There are medical, engineering, and management colleges that are
affiliated to Tribhuvan University. The economy is mostly based on tourism, agriculture, and local
industries. The paintings on pottery, walls, and courtyards made by Maithili women are known
as Mithila art. Janakpur attracts migrants from the surrounding area, moving to the city for medical
care, education, and jobs. Zonal Hospital, Zonal Police, and the Banking Sector help the locals live a
relatively easy lifestyle. The city has many commercial banks, such as Nepal Rastra Bank, the State
Bank of India, Nepal, Everest Bank LTD. Machhapuchhare, NIC Bank, Nepal Bank LTD, and
Agriculture Development Bank.

The Janaki Mandir temple is in the centre of Janakpur, northwest of the bazaar. It is one of the biggest
temples in Nepal and was built in 1898 (1955 in the Nepali calendar) by Queen Brisabhanu Kunwari
of Tikamgarh. It is also called Nau Lakha Mandir after the cost of construction, said to be
nine lakh rupees.[18] The temple is architecturally unique in Nepal: its inner sanctum contains a
flower-covered statue of Sita that was found in the Sarayu near Ayodhya. Statues of Rama and his
half-brothers Lakshman, Bharat, and Satrughna stand by Sita.

One of the main criteria for the design of the building is the knowledge about functional requirement
and its spatial needs for the user. The spatial need varies with measurement of human body and its
movement in space. These detail study of the functional anatomy concept of required workspace has
been developed in human proportion within Ernst Neuferts Architects Data.
E. TIME-SAVER STANDARDS FOR LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE

Time-Saver Standards for Landscape Architecture Design and Construction Data has been expanded
and re-designed to offer easier access to more information on landscape design and construction
processes. Time-Saver Standards for Landscape Architecture have striven to create a common
technical framework for the professions of landscape architecture, architecture, engineering, and
planning, by expanding and emphasizing the core construction content of the profession. Site
Construction Operations has been added to describe the procedures and equipment required to build
on the land from the contractor's perspective; Spatial Standards has been revised to emphasize
human-scale dimensions in the landscape, with provisions for small, medium, and large-scale cultural
settings ; A new section on Energy and Resource Conservation focuses on both site planning and
design approaches which promote appropriate bioclimatic responses ; Site Drainage has been folded
into Stormwater Management with emphasis on best management practices and water quality ; Plants
and Planting now includes expanded coverage of xeriscape principles, native plant associations, and
urban street tree detail advances.
F. BUILDING BYLAWS

In addition to the NNBC code for the earthquake safety during construction, other major consideration
to be made will be the bylaws of the site area. The main objective of the building bylaws is to ensure
safety as well as hygienic living condition of the area. Therefore, the existing bylaws of the project site
will be reviewed during the design review and construction phase.
G. REVIEW OF TOPOGRAPHICAL MAP

Topographic map is a type of map characterized by large-scale detail and quantitative representation
of relief, usually using contour lines in modem mapping, but historically using a variety of methods.
Traditional definitions require a topographic map to show both natural and man-made features. A
topographic map is typically published as a map series, made up of two or more map sheets that
combine from the whole map. A contour line is a combination of two line segments that connect but
do not intersect; these represent elevation on a topographic map. Thus, it is a detailed and accurate
graphic representation of cultural and natural features on the ground.
H. REVIEW OF GEOLOGICAL MAPS

Geological map is a special purpose made to shows the geological features of the area. The Different
soil strata of the area likes rocks, soil units or geologic strata are shown by color or symbols to
indicate where they are exposed at the surface. Bedding planes and structural features such as faults,
folds, foliations, and line actions are shown with strike and dip or trend and plunge symbols, which
give these feature’s three-dimensional orientations.

Contour lines may be used to illustrate the surface of a selected stratum illustrating the subsurface
topographic trends of the strata; maps detail the variations in thickness of stratigraphic units. It is not
always possible to properly show this when the strata are extremely fractured, mixed, in some
discontinuities, or where they are otherwise disturbed.

pertinent published and unpublished documents will be reviewed.

J. NORMS FOR RATE ANALYSIS

Norms for Rate Analysis has been revised from time to time to accommodate various deficiencies.
Still there are some shortcomings in the Norms:

 As many works are done, using various mechanical equipment the Norms for construction
and maintenance work using machine power should cover different types of widely used
machine considering the type of earthwork and the soil condition.
 Specific head and appropriate subhead for different activities
 Item of transportation by truck by should be modified and breakdown in head / subhead
should be clear (e.g. for 1st 1 km & for more than 1 km & for per km & considering speed of
truck corresponding to road surface and its category; and idle hour should be correlated to the
working hour (WH).
 Weight of different building materials like aggregates, standard steel products should be
considered in norms.
 It is found that several activities of work are repeated in different heads. Such repetitions
should be avoided as far as possible, because it could create unnecessary confusion.

K. PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTIVES

The public procurement directives prescribe as the standard procedure the preparation of detailed
tender documents, based on which the bidders submit a priced offer. This procedure is suitable for
standard products, standard services or smaller works, but it is not optimal for more complex works
projects. We will be review the PWD for making the bidding documents.

L. PUBLIC PROCUREMENT ACT 2063, PUBLIC PROCUREMENT REGULATION 2064

An Act Made to Provide for Public Procurement. It is expedient to make legal provisions in order to
make the procedures, processes and decisions relating to public procurement much more open,
transparent, objective and reliable, obtain the maximum returns of public expenditures in an
economical and rational manner by promoting competition, fairness, honesty, accountability and
reliability in public procurement processes, and; ensure good governance by enhancing the
managerial capacity of procurement of public entities in procuring, or causing to be procured,
construction work and procuring goods, consultancy services and other services by such entities and
by ensuring the equal opportunity for producers, sellers, suppliers, construction entrepreneurs or
service providers to participate in public procurement processes without any discrimination. We will be

Hospital Building Planning

Regardless of their location, size, or budget, all hospitals will have certain common attributes.
Efficiency and Cost-Effectiveness
An efficient hospital layout will:
 Promote staff efficiency by minimizing distance of necessary travel between frequently used
spaces
 Allow easy visual supervision of patients by limited staff
 Include all needed spaces, but no redundant ones. This requires careful pre-
design programming.
 Provide an efficient logistics system, which might include elevators, pneumatic tubes, box
conveyors, manual or automated carts, and gravity or pneumatic chutes, for the efficient
handling of food and clean supplies and the removal of waste, recyclables, and soiled
material
 Make efficient use of space by locating support spaces so that they may be shared by
adjacent functional areas, and by making prudent use of multi-purpose spaces
 Consolidate outpatient functions for more efficient operation—on first floor, if possible—for
direct access by outpatients
 Group or combine functional areas with similar system requirements
 Provide optimal functional adjacencies, such as locating the surgical intensive care unit
adjacent to the operating suite. These adjacencies should be based on a detailed functional
program which describes the hospital's intended operations from the standpoint of patients,
staff, and supplies.

Flexibility and Expandability


Since medical needs and modes of treatment will continue to change, hospitals will:
 Follow modular concepts of space planning and layout
 Use generic room sizes and plans as much as possible, rather than highly specific ones
 Be served by modular, easily accessed, and easily modified mechanical and electrical
systems
 Where size and program allow, be designed on a modular system basis. This system also
uses walk-through interstitial space between occupied floors for mechanical, electrical, and
plumbing distribution. For large projects, this provides continuing adaptability to changing
programs and needs, with no first-cost premium, if properly planned, designed, and bid.

`Technical Proposal for Amenities Designs and Drawings Preparation work of Field Survey, Soil Investigation, Utility Survey &
Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25
 Be open-ended, with well planned directions for future expansion; for instance positioning
"soft spaces" such as administrative departments, adjacent to "hard spaces" such as clinical
laboratories.

Therapeutic Environment
Hospital patients are often fearful and confused and these feelings may impede recovery. Every effort
will be made to make the hospital stay as unthreatening, comfortable, and stress-free as possible.
The interior designer plays a major role in this effort to create a therapeutic environment. A hospital's
interior design will be based on a comprehensive understanding of the facility's mission and its patient
profile. The characteristics of the patient profile will determine the degree to which the interior design
should address aging, loss of visual acuity, other physical and mental disabilities, and abusiveness.
Some important aspects of creating a therapeutic interior are:
 Using familiar and culturally relevant materials wherever consistent with sanitation and other
functional needs
 Using cheerful and varied colors and textures, keeping in mind that some colors are
inappropriate and can interfere with provider assessments of patients' pallor and skin tones,
disorient older or impaired patients, or agitate patients and staff, particularly some psychiatric
patients.
 Admitting ample natural light wherever feasible and using color-corrected lighting in interior
spaces which closely approximates natural daylight
 Providing views of the outdoors from every patient bed, and elsewhere wherever possible;
photo murals of nature scenes are helpful where outdoor views are not available
 Designing a "way-finding" process into every project. Patients, visitors, and staff all need to
know where they are, what their destination is, and how to get there and return. A patient's
sense of competence is encouraged by making spaces easy to find, identify, and use without
asking for help. Building elements, color, texture, and pattern should all give cues, as well as
artwork and signage.

Cleanliness and Sanitation


Hospitals must be easy to clean and maintain. This is facilitated by:
 Appropriate, durable finishes for each functional space
 Careful detailing of such features as doorframes, casework, and finish transitions to avoid dirt-
catching and hard-to-clean crevices and joints
 Adequate and appropriately located housekeeping spaces
 Special materials, finishes, and details for spaces which are to be kept sterile, such as
integral cove base. The new antimicrobial surfaces might be considered for appropriate
locations.
 Incorporating O&M practices that stress indoor environmental quality (IEQ)

Accessibility
All areas, both inside and out, will:
 Comply with the minimum requirements for disabled persons and

Shrestha-GRID-DCON JV Form Tech 4 -17


`Technical Proposal for Amenities Designs and Drawings Preparation work of Field Survey, Soil Investigation, Utility Survey &
Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25
 Be designed so as to be easy to use by the many patients with temporary or permanent
handicaps
 Ensuring grades are flat enough to allow easy movement and sidewalks and corridors are
wide enough for two wheelchairs to pass easily
 Ensuring entrance areas are designed to accommodate patients with slower adaptation rates
to dark and light; marking glass walls and doors to make their presence obvious

Controlled Circulation
A hospital is a complex system of interrelated functions requiring constant movement of people and
goods. Much of this circulation will be controlled.
 Outpatients visiting diagnostic and treatment areas will not travel through inpatient functional
areas nor encounter severely ill inpatients
 Typical outpatient routes will be simple and clearly defined
 Visitors will have a simple and direct route to each patient nursing unit without penetrating
other functional areas
 Separate patients and visitors from industrial/logistical areas or floors
 Outflow of trash, recyclables, and soiled materials will be separated from movement of food
and clean supplies, and both should be separated from routes of patients and visitors
 Transfer of cadavers to and from the morgue will be out of the sight of patients and visitors
 Dedicated service elevators for deliveries, food and building maintenance services

Aesthetics
Aesthetics is closely related to creating a therapeutic environment (homelike, attractive.) It is
important in enhancing the hospital's public image and is thus an important marketing tool. A better
environment also contributes to better staff morale and patient care. Aesthetic considerations include:
 Increased use of natural light, natural materials, and textures
 Use of artwork
 Attention to proportions, color, scale, and detail
 Bright, open, generously-scaled public spaces
 Homelike and intimate scale in patient rooms, day rooms, consultation rooms, and offices
 Compatibility of exterior design with its physical surroundings

Security and Safety


In addition to the general safety concerns of all buildings, hospitals have several particular security
concerns:
 Protection of hospital property and assets, including drugs
 Protection of patients, including incapacitated patients, and staff
 Safe control of violent or unstable patients
 Vulnerability to damage from terrorism because of proximity to high-vulnerability targets, or
because they may be highly visible public buildings with an important role in the public health
system.

Hospitals are large public buildings that have a significant impact on the environment and economy of
the surrounding community. They are heavy users of energy and water and produce large amounts of
waste. Because hospitals place such demands on community resources they are natural candidates
for sustainable design.

2.3 Management Approach:

Figure: Successful Project Management: the Consultant’s Vision

Project Team

Knowledge Experience Attitude

Successful Project Beneficiaries

Quality Effectiveness
Beneficiaries Clients

Logistic & Administrative Support


Time & Quality Conscious Responsive

The emphasis of the Consultants will be to ensure a proper management of all the issues related to
assignment including the necessary assessment for a proper understanding of contractual aspects
and conditions, timely compliance of the contractual requirements, adherence to time and quality, etc.
Therefore, the Consultants’ approach to proactive management of services will be based on the
following actions: Support from Head Office: Taking into account the scope of the project, the time
and work schedules for implementation and aimed on the main objectives of detail design, the Joint
Venture Partners will make pertinent arrangements for providing a continuous technical,
administrative and management support from their Head Office.

Roles, Responsibilities, Coordination, Communications, and Office Environment:


 Close co-ordination among the key components of the project (Client and the Stakeholders)
 Duly empowered Team Leader to act as Consultant’s Representative
 Designate the Team Leader (and project Manager in the absence of Team Leader) to serve as
“the single-point-of-contact” for the Client and be vested with the authority needed to implement
the Project in terms of technical administrative and financial matter.

2.3.1 General Method to be adopted for assignment

This section will illustrate methods to be adopted for performing the assignment proposed. Since, the
assignment is to prepare detailed design. This empowerment is not only assumed for the successful
completion of this project but also for improving client’s capacity for planning, and implementation of
the hospital development activities. Thus, method adopted for the assignment is detailed in the
following sections.

Shrestha-GRID-DCON JV Form Tech 4 -23

Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25

A. Method of Two-way Information Flow

The system of information flow from the team to related institutions will be strengthened pro-actively to
have replies from those institutions. This is a paradigmatic shift in information flow, so, team will
develop a periodic review of the effectiveness of the information led by the Team Leader. We hope
that this will make some changes on office management approach on information flow.

B. Method of Sustainability

The team is committed to think about sustainability. Small approach would make substantial change
in this direction. Every time, we would defend everything, on sustainability of the end user of the
service as well as infrastructure. This is ethical dimension of the JV and agreed in the team of
proposal making. Team leader will lead this issue and observe its compatibility in the project
assignment. The approach will be to establish the system which is contextual.

C. Value Engineering Practice Approach

The planning team will apply the established practices of value engineering. The approach results in
the most optimal value of the investment which is the prime concern of the BCT and participating local
bodies.

D. Innovative Conceptualization Approach

Innovative thinking approach to the project plays an important role for the success of the project
implementation. The knowledge gained from experiences as well as in depth study of ToR, sharing
and relating with international experts would make innovation to take place. This is started with
scrutinizing concerning documents and pre-proposal exercises that have helped JV to establish the
general approach towards introducing the innovative ideas for the successful implementation of this
project. The JV, as decided in the team, believes on the innovativeness on problem solving, and, thus
used the approach of innovation to this assignment, which might bring value to the project
stakeholders as well as to the Client.

E. Whole to part for Planning

The planning starts with visualizing the context. Thus, it has to be driven by the objective based on the
goal. In this assignment, if we fragment the elements, there are a lot. With this method, each element
will be hinged on objective and subsequent to the delivery of the quality in project outputs. This is not
survey, but has importance in conceptualizing overall activity so that each function and functionaries
go hand in hand.

F. Part to Whole for Correction and Modification

Once we entered in implementation, there are possibilities for correction and modification in order not
to squeeze the time, cost and quality. Then part to whole method will be applied to the correction and
modification. This would lead to minimum disturbance to the original objective and the output without
compromising time and quality at minimum cost.

team to assess the data obtained and in planning the details of the tasks to be undertaken. The
observation will be supplemented by photographs or sketches to show the functional and spatial
planning of proposed area, existing transportation network to the proposed area, the built environment
(man-made and natural) around the proposed site, the existing situation of neighborhood residents,
schools, communities, and private land parcels within the specified zone, different facilities area
including state of the site and other infrastructure facilities.

The team will conduct Detailed Engineering Survey at the site for determining the topography of the
building site and the water way site. Topographical survey will be conducted with Total Station for the
greater accuracy which is modern electronic survey equipment and technology used to perform
horizontal and vertical measurements in reference to a grid system. Total stations are ideally suited
for this type of work, especially when connected to data recorders which can export the results into
software that can later be incorporated into design and presentation. Digital design data from CAD
programs can be uploaded to data collector. Total stations use a modulated near infrared light
emitting diode which sends a beam from the instrument to a prism. The prism reflects this beam back
to the instrument. The portion of the wavelength that leaves the instrument and returns is assessed
and calculated. Distance measurements can be related to this measurement. GPS will be used for
getting the accurate position of the site.

The survey will be performed to produce the map of finalized scale during project planning phase and
0.25m contour interval. All features of the land will be detailed out in the field. The Consultant will use
the digital terrain modeling or Land Development software, which includes the generation of the cross
sections from the survey data.

 Selection of Site

The proposed locations of the Bore holes will be defined on a map and on the field, prior to the
commencement of the work finalize to discuss with the client. As far as possible, the location of
the bore holes will be under foundation. Additional pits will be considered for test if suggested by
Geotechnical Engineer.

 Test pits/Boring

Boring method will be adopted with necessary field test including standard penetration test
(SPT).

The methods of boring will be such that;

 Soil distribution at the bottom of bore holes is minimum

 Water level difference inside and outside of the boreholes is not created

The Consultant team will finalize the actual required depth of soil investigation according to the field
condition and required design parameters. However, the Consultant is proposing 20m depth for the
nature of work. Depending upon the strata the final depths will be decided by the BCT assigned
technician for each borehole. The boring size will not be less than 100mm diameter. The hole will be
togged at site by a competent engineer from the consultant.

The method adopted for boring will not cause nuisance to the neighborhood. The method adopted for
boring will be according to IS 1892-1979. Boring of pits at site will be done in presence of BCT
assigned technician. Ground water table will be observed and noted every morning and evening
during the investigation period.

In boring process, data and soil sample will be collected at same time. Undisturbed samples will be
taken with shell by tubes of diameter not less than 100mm having an area ratio of less than 10%.
Additional undisturbed sample will be collected at every change of formation. Collected samples will
be drafted in a borehole log with required data and measurements. It will be written by the
geotechnical expert and approved by the supervisor of the consultant. In a borehole format in general,
there will be at least Name of project, Name of geotechnical expert, Date, Depth, borehole number,
Barrel name, type of test and core recovery. Sample will be sent for laboratory test as early as
possible. Collection of sample will be according to IS 1892-1979.

 Laboratory Testing

to measure and appraise the engineering properties of the soil and or rock encountered. The following
tests must be carried out:

 Grain Size Distribution (Dry and Wet Sieve Method)

Shrestha-GRID-DCON JV Form Tech 4 -33


`Technical Proposal for Amenities Designs and Drawings Preparation work of Field Survey, Soil Investigation, Utility Survey &
Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25
 Specific Gravity

 Moisture Content

 Atterberg Limit Test (LL and PL)

 Direct Shear Test

Groundwater table will be measured at the start and after 24 hours at the end of boring.

Vane Share Test: Field vane share test will be performed inside the bore holes for the determination
of shear strength of cohesive soils, especially of soft and sensitive clays, which are highly susceptible
to sampling distribution. The equipment and accessories required for conducting test, test procedures
and field observation will correspond to IS: 4432 and the result will be as specified as IS: 4434,
Appendix A

Seismic Refraction Test: This exploration will be based on the fact that shock waves travel at
different velocities to different types of materials. The velocity of wave propagation can determine the
nature and stratification of subsurface materials.

Measurement of Soil Resistivity Test: For designing the earthing system for the project it is
necessary to find out the electric resistivity of the soil at project area by “WENNER’s FOUR
ELECTRODE METHOD”.

Soil obtained in split spoon of Standard Penetration Test (SPT) barrel and the sludge samples
obtained during the drilling will be taken as disturbed samples. A number of such samples will be
taken at various depths, labeled properly and preserved for laboratory testing. The equipment and
manner in which the SPT are conducted will be according to IS: 2131-1963 and subject to the
approval of the client engineer. SPT will be conducted at each change in soil strata but not more than
1.5m of depth of interval as per ASTM D-1596. Soil obtained in the spilt barrel will be collected as
representative disturbed sample.

Field test consisted of Dynamic Cone Penetration Test (DCPT), will be carried out in each bore hole
to obtain the penetration resistance. The number of blows required to drive the cone through a
specified distance is the measure of dynamic cone resistance. The method adopted will be according
to IS: 4968-1976. For DCPT, 50mm cone will be used. The driving energy will be given by 65 kg
hammer falling through a height of 75cm. The no. of blows is recorded at each 100mm penetration.
The number of blows required for 300mm penetration will be recorded as the dynamic cone
resistance (Ncbr). The Ncbr values are correlated with the SPT number N using the following
approximate relations when 50mm diameter cone is used.
Ncbr= 1.5 N for depths up to 3m

Ncbr= 1.75 N for depths between 3 to 6m

Ncbr= 2.0 N for depths greater than 6m

The general sequence of sampling will be to obtain test samples at 1.5m interval or as per the
requirement or at every significant change of strata. Undisturbed sample will be collected at specified
depth, as fat it is possible.

Shrestha-GRID-DCON JV Form Tech 4 -34


`Technical Proposal for Amenities Designs and Drawings Preparation work of Field Survey, Soil Investigation, Utility Survey &
Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25

Undisturbed samples will be collected with the help of thin wall sampling tubes as per ASTM D-1587
for further test, such as:

 Direct Shear Test

 Consolidation Test

 Unconfined Compression Test

 Tri-axial Test

The sampling tube will be kept on a heat proof and shock proof box and will be transported to the lab
at the same day.

Before sampling operation the bottom of the hole will be cleaned avoiding the possible disturbances.

The material from the cutting edge of the sampler or from the split spoon tube will be considered as
disturbed sample.
SOIL EXPLORATION WORKS TO BE CERTIFIED

The Client, if required, may ask the Consultant to submit the soil sample obtained from drilling works
and/or a bore-log.
Field Test and Laboratory tests

The properties of the underlying soil will be determined by field and laboratory tests of the soil
samples obtained from the bore holes to a depth as required. As far as possible, the locations of the
boreholes will be under critical column. Generally the following tests will be conducted for
determination of soil properties:

SN Type of test
1
Grain Size Analysis
2
Atterberg’s Limit
3
Natural Moisture Contents
4
Bulk Density
5
Specific Gravity
6
Direct Shear test
7
Unconfined Compression Test
8
Consolidation Test
9
Tri-axial Test

Laboratory determinations of the shear strength and consolidation properties of the clay and clayey
soils will be performed routinely. For details of performing the individual test, the laboratory test
manual, will be referred. For the case in clay soils, the unconsolidated-undrained triaxial shear (Q)
test will be performed. In silts, the consolidated-undrained triaxial shear (R) test, with pore pressure
recorded, will be performed and used to predict the shear strength of the formation appropriate to the

Shrestha-GRID-DCON JV Form Tech 4 -35


`Technical Proposal for Amenities Designs and Drawings Preparation work of Field Survey, Soil Investigation, Utility Survey &
Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25

construction and long-term loading cases. In sands, the standard penetration test, or if samples can
be collected, the consolidated-drained triaxial shear test or direct shear test (S) will be used to predict
the shear strength appropriate to the two loading cases. The sensitivity of these soils will be estimated
and the appropriate remolded triaxial shear test performed, as well as the shrink-swell tests, if
appropriate. Consolidation tests will be performed throughout the profile so that the down drag and/or
settlement of the structure will be estimated. The field testing will include in situ ground-water
evaluation. In situ testing for soil properties may also be used to augment the soil borings but will
never be used as a replacement. The laboratory test will be performed in the presence of personal
from PU. The laboratory test methods will be according to IS: 2720 wherever applicable.

Determination of Bearing capacity, Analysis and foundation design

The allowable bearing pressure (qa) is the maximum pressure that can be imposed on the foundation
soil taking into consideration the ultimate bearing capacity of the soil and the tolerable settlement of
the structure. Analysis to determine the ultimate bearing capacity and the pressure corresponding to a
specified maximum settlement will be performed and the minimum pressure obtained from the two
analyses will be adopted as the allowable bearing pressure.

 Allowable Bearing Pressure based on Ultimate Bearing Capacity

 Allowable Bearing Capacity from SPT

 Allowable Bearing Pressure based on Tolerable Settlement

Safe bearing capacity and net bearing capacity will be calculated according to IS: 6403-1981 and IS:
8009-1976. Other codes such as USBR manuals may also be adopted. Allowable bearing capacity at
the proposed site and variation within the area will be proposed. Allowable bearing capacity for
different types of foundation for different depths will be recommended based on national Building code
of Nepal, national Building code of India (1983) or other suitable codes.
Correction for overburden

The correction for values of N will be made for the field SPT values for depths. Modified correction in
1974, peck, Hanson and Thornburn with suggested standard pressure of 100 kN/m 2 corresponding to
a depth of 5 m of soil with bulk density 20kN/m 2 can be represented by the following equation:

N c =( C N ) N

C N =0.77 log 10 ( 2000


σ' )

Where σ ' is effective overburden pressure in kN/m2


Correction for silts and fine sands below water table

The correction for values of N greater than 15 in fine sands below water level is as follows;

N=15+ ( N −15
2 )
c

`Technical Proposal for Amenities Designs and Drawings Preparation work of Field Survey, Soil Investigation, Utility Survey &
Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25

This correction is due to the fact that higher values are liable to be recorded due to pore water
pressure.
Allowable Bearing Pressure based on Ultimate Bearing Capacity

The IS Code Method for calculation of net ultimate bearing capacity (IS: 6403-1981) will be used to
obtain the allowable bearing pressure with safety factor as per the code.

Allowable Bearing Pressure from Standard Penetration Test

As the ultimate bearing capacity depends upon Ø and hence on N, it can be related directly to N.
Teng (1962) gave the following equation for the net ultimate capacity of a strip footing.

q nu=1/6 ¿
For Square or circular Footings,

q nu=1/ 3 ¿

The net allowable bearing capacity can be obtained by applying a factor of safety as per the code.

q nu=0 . 11N 2 B ( RW 2 ) +0 .33 ( 100+ N 2) Df ( RW 1 ) KN/m²


where, qnu = net ultimate bearing capacity (KN/m2)

B = width of footing,

N= average SPT number

Df= depth of footing

Allowable Bearing Pressure based on Tolerable Settlement

The maximum allowable settlement for isolated footings in sand is generally 40 mm and for Mat
foundation in sand the allowable settlement is 65mm (Skempton and MacDonald, 1955). For
isolated footings in cohesive soil, the allowable settlement is generally 60mm and for Mat foundation
is 100mm (Skempton and MacDonald, 1955).

The method of Teng (1988) will be employed for the analysis. This method is a modification of the
method of Terzaghi and Peck (1948) such that the allowable bearing pressure will directly be obtained
from the SPT values.

For isolated footings and strip footing in sand:


qa= 1.4(N-3){(B+1)/2B}2Rw’(1+Df/B)*

*(1+Df/B) is limiting up to value of 2.

Where, qa is the net allowable bearing pressure in KN/m 2 for maximum settlement of 25 mm.

The average SPT values from the boreholes in each structure will be selected for the analysis of
bearing capacity of the relevant structure.

The allowable bearing pressure for a limiting settlement other than 25 mm (e.g. x mm) will be linearly
interpolated from the allowable bearing pressure for 25 mm settlement.
qa(x mm) = qa(25 mm)(x/25)

If the clay layer is encountered, the settlement was calculated by:

cc σ' + ∆ σ'
Sf =
1+ e 0
×log 10 ( σ'
×H)
Where: Sf = Consolidation or settlement in m

H = Thickness of soil layer in m


e 0= Initial void ratio

σ ' =Effective stress at mid-height of layer in kN/m2

∆ σ ' =Pressure increment kN/m2

Liquefaction Analysis will be done. Soil liquefaction occurs in loose, saturated cohesionless soil
units (sands and silts) and sensitive clays when a sudden loss of strength and loss of stiffness is
experienced, sometimes resulting in large, permanent displacements of the ground. Seed et al, 1985,
state that soil layers with a normalized SPT blow count [(N1) 60] less than 22 have been known to
liquefy. Marcuson et al, 1990, suggest an SPT value of [(N1) 60] less than 30 as the threshold to use
for suspecting liquefaction potential. Liquefaction has also been shown to occur if the normalized CPT
cone resistance (qc) is less than 157 tsf (15 MPa) (Shibata and Taparaska, 1988).

Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25

Environmental Consideration

The basic intention of environmental consideration is to develop the best possible plan for the hospital
in the given environmental settings. Environmental consideration basically addresses two aspects:
risks or threats, which are the likely damages to the environmental quality, services and natural
wealth; and opportunity or potential in the given natural setting for road works to harness the same.
Environmental considerations will, therefore, focus on avoiding or minimizing damages and, at the
same time, promoting sensible use of opportunities to improve the natural environment.

The consultant will perform the studies in the field. The consultant will find out the various parameters
affecting the environment by the proposed project. Following study will be carried out in field in
following sectors.
 The consultant will conduct interacting meeting with local people, leaders of various parties,
teachers, landowners, affected people etc. to collect baseline information
 Identify and analyze the impact in environment due to proposed project
 Study about developing the mitigation plan and recommendation

The consultant are required to predict damages to the environment and attempt to mitigate or
minimize such damages and suggesting appropriate measures in planning. The extent of disturbance
due to set up of University will be minimized, providing necessary mitigation measures. The
Consultant’s planning will take into consideration the probable damages to the environment by the
proposed works and the planning will attempt to mitigate or minimize such damages with inclusion of
appropriate measures in the plans. Environmentally safe tipping areas for surplus mass of excavated
or any other material will be identified during planning.

Base on the impact prediction and evaluation exercise, the consultant will recommend the mitigation
measures to reduce, avoid or offset the potential environmental impacts. The consultant will adopt the
following policies of recommending the mitigation measures:
Compensatory Measures – actions to compensate for adverse impacts that are unavoidable. The
activities under this measure may include Restoration of Damaged Natural Resources,
Rehabilitation of displaced settlements, and Compensation to affected population or
households.

Corrective Measures- action to reduce adverse impacts to acceptable levels. The activities under
this may include Installation of pollution control devices, adoption of bioengineering to prevent
from flood, etc.

Preventive Measures – action to reduce or eliminate the adverse impacts before occurrence. The
activities under this may include implementation of health education, adoption of Occupational
Health and Safety etc.

The mitigation measures developed will be practical, rational, and have good chances of working,
based on past and proven experiences. They will be feasible and cost effective.

Social Consideration

The social consideration in proposed site development is associated with promoting broader social
development benefits including those not addressed by forces of market economy and to discourage

any social harms and dis-benefits. Infrastructure may have different kind of social impacts on the local
communities at different time horizons. Therefore, the immediate and long-term social ramifications
will be adequately considered for the purpose of avoiding or lessening undesirable ones and
promoting desirable ones.

Task 4: Preparation of Conceptual Master Plan

Based on the information obtained by the field works and assessments carried out, various alternative
options will be discussed and prepared. The Team Leader and the concerned experts will prepare
plans based on concept of hospital available information and field survey. The following conditions will
be included while preparing the plan;
i. Developing a standard infrastructure to attract the stakeholders and to ensure competiveness.

ii. Ensuring the educational feasibility and designing a sustainability master plan

iii. Implementing land use planning and zoning efforts in defined areas.

Infrastructure and utility occupation will include road and drain network, administration building,
cafeteria, communication facilities, electrical power supply system including standby generator, water
supply and sewage disposal facilities, recreation area, etc.

 Space Requirement Calculation and Master Planning

The Master Plan will establish a framework and key elements of construction activities such as Road
and circulation network, Zoning, Scope for future expansion, Layout of the building blocks as per
zoning indicating the existing blocks to be retained or dismantled and Plan for management of
sewerage, electrical and other services. The space requirements for the master plan and design will
be calculated through various activities: meetings and study of norms. The team will have interaction
with policy level personnel, Client personnel and supporting staff, directly or indirectly affecting the
Client. The team will ascertain clients requirements, prepare schedules of space area requirement,
examine site constrains and potential in planning phase.

The space requirements for the master plan and design will be calculated through various activities:
meetings and study of norms. The team will have interaction with client personnel and supporting
staff, directly or indirectly affecting the Client. The structured, unstructured questionnaires, open group
discussion, brainstorming and other standards tools may be used to screen out issues and interests
and ultimately sort out the information. These space requirement needs to be functionally connected.
So, functional flow diagram of building needs to be clearly designed for the users. Functional flow of
the public within the building needs to be connected in the built form through architectural design.
Architectural design will be finalized through the discussions with the client.

The study of norms includes the study of Nepal National Building Code, local bylaws, design
standards, reports/ published articles for building.

Based on the outcomes of above activities, the space requirement for the proposed building and other
services will be prepared. A master plan will be prepared with the space allocations. The cost

 Conceptual Design

Before undertaking the preparation of master plan various steps have to be followed. The project has
to be carried out in three parts. The first part will deal with the understanding of the project; where the
site is located, its land use programme and the main aims and objectives of the project. This part will
also deal with the literature review to form the analytical framework for a good and efficient building
block. By reviewing various literatures regarding the planning, designing of building, designing of
framework for a resourceful and user responsive plan can be conducted.

The second part of the project, the case study analysis, will deal with the comparative study of the
selected case studies. The strengths and weaknesses of the case studies will be analyzed with the
help of the theoretical framework. In this section the related existing laws and legislation are also
discussed and the site analysis along with the local climatic analysis will also be carried out. Climatic
conditions, particularly solar access, will guide the placement of building and site features in energy-
conserving design.

The final part of the conceptual phase includes design concept and planning of the propose site. In
other words, the following points will be borne in mind while making the plan. They are:

 The study of context based on available data and site visit


 The formulation of the requirements on the basis of the available data
 Determine the appropriate design criteria used for the proposed development
 Selection of position of building (building layout selection), which make variable construction cost
due to need of various kind of exterior and interior infrastructure for sustaining the building
complex effectively and economically. It need to consider preservation of the character of the site,
to the maximum possible extent, by retaining natural features such as ground forms, trees and
other natural vegetation, Using the existing site to best advantage by locating and orienting
building structure so that they are compatible with natural features of site, climatic factors,
environmental consideration such as solar, rain, wind, temperature, noise, light, energy efficiency,
ventilation etc., municipality norms, rule and regulation, Proper orientation of facilities to capitalize
on major vistas need to be considered. The views from the structures and views into the site from
major roadways need to be considered to make the building structure attractive and reflective of
its purpose and the topography of the site need to be used to maximum possible extent for the
supporting proposes structures.
 Formation of the concept and its transformation to a concrete architectural reality
 Development of design and drawing following the last step
 Materialization of concept and technical design drawings and detailing
 Alternatives will be prepared with plan and elevation with different type of design and facilities

The design process impacts on the safety of a building and structures. Using safe design principles
will result in improved safety and reduced risk of illness and injury to constructors, locals, end-users
and those who maintain the building. The costs associated with an unsafe design can be significant in

Shrestha-GRID-DCON JV Form Tech 4 -44


`Technical Proposal for Amenities Designs and Drawings Preparation work of Field Survey, Soil Investigation, Utility Survey &
Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25

terms of retrofitting, production downtime, higher insurance premiums, environmental clean-up costs
and the costs associated with possible litigation. It is more economical to eliminate as many
workplace safety hazards as possible by well-informed decisions at the design stage as it is to control
them after the building has been constructed. That will be considered during design of the building
and other structures.

Environmental consideration will start early-on. Layout plan of the building will be guided by
environmental and climatic factors, and alternative layouts will be compared on environmental and
climatic grounds. The design of the buildings will incorporate environmental concepts such as
avoiding/minimizing adverse environmental impacts, recycling or reusing and proper handling of
wastes, making optimal use of natural systems (such as solar energy and natural lights), health &
safety as well as accident/emergency management measures, contributing to positive environmental
aspects (such as recharging groundwater) etc. The proposed layout and designs will be screened for
any environmental risks.

The conceptual design will be discussed with the client and one of the best alternatives will be
selected after the discussion for the detailing, for which the presentation will be conducted on
the date and location as per the negotiation between client and consultant.

Task 5: Material survey and investigation works

The construction material used in the project works will have major influence in the cost, serviceability
and life of the structures. Thus, appropriate construction material resources will be explored in the
vicinity of project area. Main concentration will be given to the existing quarries and borrow pit areas
in safe environmental condition and economic haulage distance. Material resource investigations will
aim to determine materials required for project works, such as pavement, gabions, concrete, masonry
walls etc. Reference will be made to existing material reports as available with District Coordination
Committee.

A proper assessment of existing soil condition and other features will enable the proper planning and
design of proposed project. Consultant will carry out following activities in this heading;

 Generally, geology of the region, project area will be described and geological map of the
area be presented along with identification of major features pertinent to the project.
 Nature, type and structure of surface soil of the area will be clearly identified for the further
required investigation listed.
 Whenever applicable, slope stability analysis of the represented site will be carried out and
the finding and recommendation be given.
 The location of debris flow and other possible obstruction.

The material sites will be identified and assessed on the basis of several parameters like size of
deposit, quality of materials, accessibility, land rights and environmental impacts. Indiscriminate use of
borrow pits, quarry sites will be discouraged.

Task 6: Finalization of Detailed Engineering Design of Physical Facilities

Architectural Design and Drawings

The consultant in consultation with the Client and related organizations will prepare architectural
design and drawings of the hospital using AutoCAD Software. The architectural details will be in
compliance with NBC 106:2003 regarding the provisions for physically disabled people. The
consultant will prepare architectural design drawing (1:100) and drawings acceptable to Client, in
suitable and presentable scales (working drawing in 1:50 and other details in the range of 1:5 to 1:20).
The elevation, the floor-wise plan and overall perspective plan of the complex will be prepared in
standard scale.

3D modeling and Animation will be prepared after the finalization of architectural design. The
Architectural drawings will comprise the 3D rendered drawing made in AutoCAD and 3D Max/ Maya/
SketchUp software.
Structural analysis and Drawings

Based on the approved concept of Architectural design, preliminary structural analysis will be done to
design safe, economic, stable, efficient structures which then will safe guard the lives of the people in
the state of earthquake disasters. While designing a structure, great emphasis will be given for
seismic analysis, as natural disasters like earthquake on perspective of Nepal have been a great
catastrophe on existence as well as wealth due to worst scenario it can create. The analysis of the
structure will be done in the most realistic approach with the help of standard engineering software
like SAP2000 (nonlinear)/ STAAD PRO and its design will be fully compliance with various
stipulations of Standard code of practice like Nepal National Building Code; Seismic Design of
Building in Nepal (NBC 105), Code of Practice for Masonry Structure - NBC 109, 202-2015, Plain and
Reinforced Concrete I.S. 456-2000, HANDBOOK ON CONCRETE REINFORCEMENT AND
DETAILING - SP34, handbook on masonry design and construction - SP20, and Criteria Earthquake
Resistant Design Structures I.S:1893:2002, NBC 203-2015.

Structural Analysis deals with analyzing internal forces in the structural members of the structures.
Structural Design deals with sizing various members of the structure to resist the internal forces to
which they are subjected in the course of their life cycle. Unless the proper Structural Detailing
methods are adopted, the structural design will be no more effective. The above mentioned Standard
Code of Practice will be thoroughly implemented for proper analysis, design and detailing with respect
to safety, economy, stability, strength, ductility besides satisfactory serviceability requirements of
cracking and deflection will also be considered. The foundation design of the structure will ensure that
the Safe bearing capacity of the subsoil at the site will not exceed the loads from the structure. All the
analysis, design and detailing will be based on the principles of Limit State of Design.
Hence, the general scope of the structural design will include the following:

 Identification of the structural system and structural member for the analysis. These structural
elements include but not limited to,
o All floor, roof, and wall framing members and slabs
o All walls, columns, footings, piles, and similar elements of the substructure

Shrestha-GRID-DCON JV Form Tech 4 -46


`Technical Proposal for Amenities Designs and Drawings Preparation work of Field Survey, Soil Investigation, Utility Survey &
Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25
o All other substructures and superstructure elements that are proportioned on the basis
of stress
o All other substructures and superstructure elements that are proportioned on the basis
of stress, strength, and deflection requirements.

 Determination of vertical loads which will be imposed by all the dead loads and live loads. The
dead load includes those of permanent materials and equipment, including the structure’s
own weight with the allowance for any loadings that are anticipated to be added at a later
data. The live loads include all loads resulting from the occupancy and use of the structure.

 Determination of horizontal loads due to earthquake, wind and snow for which seismic
analysis according to standards will be followed whereas analysis of wind velocity and pattern
in the proposed site will be considered.

 As per the geotechnical investigation report (if available), bearing capacity of soil will be
considered.

 Analysis of the structure by standard structural analysis software that uses finite element
approach and analysis of the space frame for vertical and horizontal loads.

 Determination of stresses and displacements for all the members and joints.

 Structural design and detailing of all the members in R.C.C. by limit state design and
structural design of all the steel members.
Use of 3D analytical model for structural analysis

3D analytical model will be developed using the structural analysis software for robust analysis of
structure.

Based on the structural analysis and analysis from analytical model, the structural design will be
carried out following relevant codes. The consultant will follow the requirements for the ductile
detailing in compliance with the requirement of IS13920 or any other relevant ductile detailing code.
This standard covers the requirements for designing and detailing of monolithic reinforced concrete
buildings so as to give them adequate toughness and ductility to resist severe earthquake shocks
without collapse. The provisions for reinforced concrete construction given herein apply specifically to
monolithic reinforced concrete construction. Precast and/or prestressed concrete members
may be used only if they can provide the same level of ductility as that of a monolithic reinforced
concrete construction during or after an earthquake.

The Structural design will comprise structural analysis and drawing with all necessary details required
for construction in AutoCAD file format.

Sanitary and Drainage Plan with analysis and drawings

The existing sewerage system will be studied and the new system will be recommended accordingly.
If sewer lines do not exist in the proposed area, septic tanks and soak pit will be designed.
Internal Sanitary/ Plumbing

Most public lavatories are not properly maintained in Nepal due to one or other reasons. Hence, the
design of plumbing and sanitation for building need special attention. For common toilets, pour flush
system will be considered for cultural and other reasons (low water consumption, less chance of

breakage's, simplicity in cleaning and maintaining etc.). Selection of floor and wall finishing will take
into account the cleaning and maintenance requirements. This will be given topmost priority because
of the need of the high degree of cleanliness. Water Supply system will have GI/CPVC pipes and
waste pipes may be of HDP (high density polythene) which is economical and easy to maintain.

Soil excreta will first be disposed into septic tanks from where affluent will be disposed into internal
underground sewer network which will ultimately be connected to drainage system of the complex.
Drainage

The design will incorporate surface run off requirement, parking facility, turning maneuvers and other
geometric parameters. The internal road surface will be well integrated with the overall drainage
system.
Quantity of Storm Water

Storm water or run off, due to rain over the proposed project area will be collected and drained off into
natural drainage lines. Quantity of storm water basically depends on the following factors:

 Rainfall

 Nature of the surface over which rainfall takes place, and

 Intensity of rainfall

Interior Design and drawings

The interior design professional is extremely important in the design process and will be contracted at
the onset of the project, referred to as the pre-design phase or programming phase, with the other
major disciplines, key stakeholders, client, and end-user contacts. The Architect will work closely with
the client to understand their business and space needs. This can be thought of as strategic
programming. The Architect will follow General Service Administration (GSA) principles for design
works.

 Healthy: Create a clean, environmentally sustainable workspace with good acoustics,


lighting, and air quality.

 Security and Safety: Create the workplace in such a way that physically protects the
occupants and assets from man-made and natural hazards.

 Comfort: Distribute workplace services, systems, and components that allow occupants to
adjust thermal, lighting, acoustics, and furniture systems to meet personal and group comfort
levels.

 Flexibility to address the client's goals are varied and can include:
 Under floor access to all workspace services
 Maximum user control of the work environment
 Mobile furniture and technology
 Building utilities that are everywhere, reconfigurable, and expandable
 Alternate work places, hoteling, teleworking, etc.
 Diverse work settings for diverse work and workforce

 Brand or Image: The work environment is one medium of communicating an organization's

Shrestha-GRID-DCON JV Form Tech 4 -48


`Technical Proposal for Amenities Designs and Drawings Preparation work of Field Survey, Soil Investigation, Utility Survey &
Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25

principles to internal and external customers. Branding creates a sense of pride and
commitment to the organization and its stakeholders.

 Equity Fairness: The workspace is designed for function and provides all users with daylight,
privacy, outside views, and personalized workspace in an aesthetically pleasing manner.

 Technological Connectivity: Enables full communication and simultaneous access to data


among and distributed to co-workers both on and off-site including teleworking, hoteling, etc.,
and has built-in capacity and flexibility to adapt to future technologies.
Relationship of Interior Design to Involved Systems

The interior designer will not only be knowledgeable (though not an expert) in building systems, but
also at times recommend a system concept that supports the goals of the client and the design
direction. For example;

 Flexibility may be a key driver for the space. The interior designer will request that the
engineers consider an under floor air distribution system with a raised floor solution to solve
this problem. This impacts the architecture, electric, and data distribution.

 Lighting and equitable fairness may also be a driver. The interior designer in developing a
scope of work for a lighting consultant will be aware of the coordination of daylight/views with
electrical ambient light and individual task lights. This can impact the electrical engineer's
work. In new construction, the interior designer will request that the window design
accommodate equitable light distribution to all associates in the workplace.

It is important that the interior designer will be included in these decisions and will be given or
develops with other disciplines the cost analysis and life-cycle costing to make the best design
decision for the client. It is important to analyze building systems from a holistic viewpoint and specify
environmentally sustainable materials and methods.
Fire-fighting Plan and drawings

Water is the most common fire extinguishing agent because it has the ideal properties for
extinguishing the most common fires; it is available in plenty and is very cheap. For the firefighting,
the following points to be considered.

 Shortage of water and intermittent public water supply has led to the need to have captive
water storage tanks exclusively for firefighting operation.

 For water supply for wet riser system, a storage tank will be available with arrangement for
replenishment of water supply through public supply mains or by an alternate source of
supply at the rate of about 1000 lt./minute. Where this is not possible, the capacity of the
static tank will have to be increased. The storage will last for 90-120 minutes at a nominal
pumping rate of 2400 lt./minute.

items/materials, which are not included in the norms for rate analysis.

For the purpose of rate analysis, the following points will be considered

 Details about all the operations involved in carrying out the work
 Quantities of materials required and their costs
 Number of different categories of laborers required
 Capacity of doing work per labor

The rate of a particular item of work depends on the following:-

 Specifications of works and materials, quality of materials proportion of mortar method of


constructional operation, etc.
 Quantities of materials and their rates, number of different types of labor and their rates
 Location of the site of work and its distances from the sources of materials and the rate of
transport, availability of water.
 Profits and miscellaneous and overhead expenses of contractor.

The project’s cost-estimate will provide all financial requirements and it will be realistic too. In the
project's cost-estimate, it will ensure that all
 the work items will be carefully listed.
 the quantities will be determined to a reasonable degree of accuracy , and
 the rates will be provided are workable.

of labor and materials should be given as a break-down under respective work item. In general,
quantities of the work items and their units will be given in the approved format.

Task 8: Preparation of Construction Drawings

The construction drawings will be clearly shown and proposed works will be interpreted in relation to
the existing features with other necessary information for accurate translation of the proposed in the
field. All the drawings will follow a uniform standard with regard to:

 Size
 Scale , and
 Details

Drawing will be of adequate size but, at the same time, will not be incontinently large which may
require many folds. The appropriate size of a drawing sheet is 594 mm x 420 mm corresponding to A2
size which can easily be stitched in a folio. The standard size of the folded compact is 297 mm x 210
mm. In each sheet of this size, it is possible to accommodate the plan and longitudinal section of one
kilometer length of the road with reasonable overlaps at the sides if they are drawn to the horizontal
scale of 1:2500. To facilitate the stitching of drawings into a folio, a margin of 40 mm will be kept on
the left hand side of the drawing sheets.

The Components which will be included in a set of Project Drawings

Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25

Technical Specification specifies or describes the nature and the class of the work, materials to be
used in the work, workmanship, etc. and is very important for the execution of the work. The cost of a
work depends much on the specifications. From the study of the specifications one can easily
understand the nature of the work and what the work will be. Drawings only do not furnish the details
of different item of work, the quantity of materials, proportion of mortar and workmanship, which are
described in specifications. Thus, the combinations of drawings and specifications define completely
the structure. Drawing and specifications form important parts of contract document.

During writing specification, attempts will be made to express all the requirements of the work clearly
and in a concise form avoiding repetition and ambiguity. As far as possible, the clauses of the
specification will be arranged in the same order in which the work will be carried out. The
specifications will be written in a language so that they indicate what the work should be, and words
“shall be” or “should be” is used.

The Specifications depends on

 Requirement of the work


 Strength of materials
 Quantity of materials, etc.

The staged construction phases of structure as well as the other entire project item will be detailed.

4.0 TRANSFER OF TECHNOLOGY/ KNOWLEDGE PROGRAM

In the course of the consulting


services, the Consultant will engage
in activities that will transfer the
knowledge of Consultant members
to the concerned project personnel
to build on their level of experience
and skills. Both the formally
structured and informal approaches
and methods will be practiced to
enhance the capability of project
personnel in the areas such as
digital photography survey,
engineering planning, design and cost estimates etc.

The Consultant will also undertake activities to ensure that all stakeholders of the project get sufficient
opportunity to express their concerns in the project. The ideas and opinions expressed in such
consultative meetings and public hearings will be used to dovetail the project to the specific needs
and concerns of the people directly or indirectly affected by the way the project is implemented in the
future.

The basis of Consultant’s approach to transfer of knowledge is that skills and improvement in
performance cannot be attained only by formal education but must be acquired and developed in a
practical working environment. This means that, to be effective, transfer of knowledge must be
introduced as part of planning process and will be developed as an integral part of activities within the
work schedule.

The technical know-how through the reports, presentations, discussions, etc. with the client during the
preparation and submission of reports would be transferred to the clients’ personnel.

We understand that the transfer of knowledge in the present context is basically a two way process,
between the Client and the Consultant. To be more specific, we propose to create an environment
conducive to the transfer of knowledge from one party to another by working together as a team to
achieve the specific goal of project completion within the specific time, within resources allocated, and
within the specified quality standard.

Besides, for the entire period of consulting services the consultant will work in close consultation to
keep the client informed about the assigned job. At the end of the study/project implementation, the
consultant will be obliged to submit the electronic version of the report and data as per client demand.
The drawings and report will be well explained to the client and hence the knowledge from the
consultant will be transferred to the client properly.

all other concerned stakeholders and works as an integral part of the whole system responsible for
effective implementation of the project activities.

The consultant will disclose any problems which have been caused by our own process and
may have troubled the next processes, make efforts to find their causes and then eliminate
them by solving the problem. The processes will be identified on a task by task basis and
control points for each process and performance of each staff will also be defined. The
complaints concerning the performance of the staff or the quality of the reports will also be
dealt with by assigning staff who have a high level of technical and administrative competence
to ensure the highest level of professional practice in implementing day to day tasks,
providing clear role and responsibilities (job description) to each staff and by carrying out
internal quality control and audit of Team members performance by Project Director or Team
Leader.

Backstopping: The Consultant will arrange for backstopping and adopt a quality assurance system
during the entire period of the consulting services. The system may require the following apart from
the regular activities:

 Assessment of the problems encountered at field level and to advise how best the problem may
be resolved.
 Referral of technical problem to backstopping experts from within the permanent staff, directors
and resource personnel of the member firms and advice the field team to address it
appropriately.
 Assumption of overall responsibility of quality control system and recommend any actions for
enhancement of quality of design and supervision.
 Briefing on the project activities to the Client/donor agency, local bodies and consumer
committees whenever it is necessary.
 Conducting internal orientation and training on the application of innovative solutions appropriate
for the project.
 Cursory review of deliverables before submission to the Client and assistance in finalization after
receipt of Client’s comments.
 Internal technical auditing to ensure level of service delivery including quality of design, quality
control and cost effectiveness.
 Conducting internal value engineering workshops to enhance the value of the works at all key
stages of the delivery of services.

The superintendence by the director of company will be usually in monthly basis; however, its
frequency will be higher during key stages of the services and during delivery of outputs.

Timely completion will be facilitated by adopting a programming approach to the entire assignment for
individual tasks. The Consultant will be active in identifying bottlenecks and clearing them and in
keeping all concerned aware of the program and of progress towards targets. By adopting a

systematic program review and control methodology and an interventionist approach, it will be
possible to ensure that each and everybody involved in the Project is working to realistic targets and
that obstacles to progress are identified and resolved in time.

Management and Organization


The major stakeholders in implementation of the contract are three entities defined in the contract:

 Employer
 Consulting firm

a. Employer
The Employer is Binaytara Cancer Trust (BCT).
The Employer’s Representative is the officer who signs the contract on behalf of the Employer.

b. The Consulting Firm


The Consulting Firm is the joint venture of Shrestha-GRID-DCON.

The QAP will be followed in the systems below.

i. Quality Assurance System


Quality Assurance is about the control of systems, and specifically the establishment of a clearly
understood reproducible system that will ensure that projects are delivered according to design, on
time and within budget.

The quality assurance defines the following:


 Quality Assurance includes all the planned and systematic activities implemented within the
quality system and demonstrated as needed, to provide adequate confidence that an entity will
fulfill requirements for quality.
 Quality Control includes operational techniques and activities that are used to fulfill requirements
for quality.

ii. The Content of Quality Assurance System


The QA Plan has been introduced to improve the management and execution of assignment. This will
be achieved through the following steps

1. Standardization - of operating procedures


2. Consistency - in work practices
3. Familiarity - with responsibilities for each individual
4. Confidence - of all staff involved
5. Efficiency - in work output
6. Satisfaction - in a job done to the best of our ability
7. Pride - in a job well done and a project delivered to the best standards

Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25

It is important to understand that these steps describe a process that will lead to the end result. Each
step leads to the next and builds upon the predecessor.

For successful completion of the project, the Quality Assurance System of the Consultant will be put
in place controlling its own activities.

Specific components of the tentative Quality Plan include:


 a clear identification of the responsibilities of the Team Leader, and other team members;
 the organization of the project's management system;
 the quality check of project work and documents which is carried out through self-check,
discipline check and interface check;
 Time Schedule for Quality Assurance Activities

Quality Assurance is addressed both prior to the project start (e.g. by selecting the appropriate project
personnel and by arranging a suitable project organisation) and continuously during the project
execution.

Routine quality checks (self-check, discipline check and interface check) will be carried out during the
implementation of the project.

More specifically, the Quality Assurance (QA) approach addresses three core functions: defining
quality, measuring quality, and improving quality.

At the local bodies, quality assurance process gives some significant insights such as enabling
environment for quality governance, improved accountability for individual and organizations vertically
and horizontally, and enriched information and concepts to ensure the quality service.  As for ensuring
quality of the digital profile, both BCT and consulting firm will develop quality assurance mechanisms
based on education, experiences in concerned field, behaviour and attitude, oral and written

expressions. Additionally, municipality will offer conductive institutional set-up quality based planning
process and document.

To bring a tangible outcome, consulting firm will adopt number of indicators for quality control of
planning at the municipality level. Similarly, the municipality will constitute a committee ranging from
stakeholders in assuring quality control. The quality control will be assessed the overall process of
planning including, process, methodology, delivery, output production, preparation of presentation
sheet, outcome and result based activities, field reports, and final approval of the report. However, the
process will be metalized with consensus of both parties.

The consulting firm will use following Quality Assurance Plan during performing the
assignment.

6.0 INNOVATIVENESS

6.1 DESCRIPTION OF INNOVATIVE TECHNIQUE (VISION/ MISSION/ GOAL/ STRATRGIES ETC.)


6.1.1 Introduction and Approach

Innovative procedures and techniques have been introduced throughout this Proposal defining the
Consultant’s approach and methodology for delivering the needed management services for this
Project. Our experience dictates that our emphasis on the Technical and Managerial innovation, as well
as on the communication, technology transfer, and proactive responsiveness to Client’s needs will
ensure the desired success of the Project.

Thus, the Consultant has always encouraged a craving for innovativeness among its staff in
approaching any task. Such innovativeness is not a sheer instinct to be different from others but a
sublime means to bring real value to the project and to the Clients. It is about the state-of-the-art
process that adds to efficiency as well as effectiveness. It need not always be borrowed but comes from
within as an individual or collective creativity. The Consultant assures the Client of such innate creativity
to be sufficiently reflected in its management and other pursuits in the Project. Translated to the Project
needs, such innovativeness could be in terms of:

 Value engineering
 Knowledge management
 Transfer of knowledge and skills
 Ingenuity in the application of lessons learned in the opportune moment
 Tactful coordination

Further, in the context of the current Project, which itself is a storehouse of innovations, the principle of
“diamond cuts diamond” has to be applied in the sense that an innovative process is needed for an
innovative project.

Innovation is not always an idea that spurts randomly – it has procedural dimension as well. The
procedure is to ensure informed thinking with logic and creativity whenever a situation of action arises.
The proposed Team Members will, therefore, be encouraged to adopt following procedures as part and
parcel of their Project related activities:

 Collection of information;
 Contextual analysis of information;
 Perceived replicability of the information in a changed context;
 Creative speculation;
 Knowledge on rules of optimization;
 Confirmation through extensive consultations and expert advice (resolution of doubts), etc.

6.1.2 Risk Management and Innovative Approach for Working in the Situation of Conflict

Several kinds of conflicts and disturbance from various agitating groups still exists in the country in the
name of autonomy with federal republic system. All the agitations and agitators are not politically
responsible. Some of these are trying to take advantage of current fluid situation, which at times may

Shrestha-GRID-DCON JV Form Tech 4 -72


`Technical Proposal for Amenities Designs and Drawings Preparation work of Field Survey, Soil Investigation, Utility Survey &
Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25

disturb the Project activities as well. Consultant’s team will nevertheless comply with risk management in
such conflict situations. The following ART requirements will be vital for the successful completion of the
Project.

Appreciation (A) of the reasons for the problem is the key. A field team member may feel difficulty in
continuing his work due to genuine and or perceived reasons of health, personal safety, need of
specialized attitude and skill for the work, which s/he may have failed to develop, traumatized state of
mind due to insurgents activities, inability to build rapport with the local communities, appreciate their
concerns etc. In such a mental state, s/he can’t be productive. Immediate replacement is the only
solution. If entangled in the nitty-gritty of the criteria for such replacement, the core objective of Project
performance will be side lined as a productive, motivated and dynamic candidate, who can deliver, may
not qualify.

A flexible approach to appreciating and accepting such turn over will need transcending the prevailing
mind set and bureaucratic hurdles.

Respecting (R) the constraints encountered by a member of the field team and applying collective
effort to overcome such constraint are yet another pre-requisite. Consultant has understanding that all
team members from all stakeholders will work in tandem respecting and recognizing the constraints/
difficulties at site without “He/ Me” feelings.

Transaction (T) communication promoting open dialogue, positive discussions will be essential
between all stakeholders to resolve constrains, problems and issues for maintaining the highest level of
transparency and harmony.

These ART requirements and in terms of each members’ anticipated responsibility, performance level
and adoptational requirements in the field will be appreciated and sensitized to all stakeholders.

6.1.3 Partnership Approach

The Consultant fully understands that the task lying ahead in this Project is not simply to demonstrate
one’s excellence in technical matters, but timely Project implementation, which can be achieved only
through partnership between the stakeholders (mainly Client, Consultant). This will be done by
developing a sense of Good Faith and Trust between the parties so that conflicts are avoided
and the Project works are completed in time. The partnership arrangement will also reduce
arbitration hassles. This approach will adopt a regular participatory meetings and open discussions
involving representatives from all stakeholders

The Consultant’s approach produces a systematic and analytical process, which seeks to achieve
value for money by providing all necessary functions at the lowest cost consistent with required levels
of quality and performance.

6.1.4 Project Risks, Assessment, Analysis and Management

The overall management of risk is seen as an area, where the Consultant’s expertise can reduce cost
through the introduction of innovative management practices. The Consultant will establish and

Shrestha-GRID-DCON JV Form Tech 4 -73


`Technical Proposal for Amenities Designs and Drawings Preparation work of Field Survey, Soil Investigation, Utility Survey &
Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25

implement a risk management process for the Project involving the identification, analysis and
assessment of risks; identification of risk mitigation measures; and ongoing monitoring of risks. The
process will be guided by the Australian Standard AS/NZS4360: Risk Management. By adopting a
proactive approach to the management of risk, response to threats may be planned and opportunities
may be enhanced to contribute to a successful Project outcome.

The Project risks could be in policy level and planning level in case of the current project. The Project
risks identified by the Consultant in the present context, in general, include

 Institutionally weak and lack of project-specific capability of manpower


 At each and every stage, critical decisions are required for troubleshooting, which requires
sound professional judgment and confidence backed by past experience as well as academic
exercise. A possible delay due to immature/unprofessional decisions will have serious
consequences in the cost, time and credibility of the Project itself.
 The general, political instability and security in the country.

Risk Management

The Consultant will have to play an active role in mitigating the Project Risks. It will be achieved by
post identification, analysis (of possible consequences as well as solutions); participatory, transparent
and accommodative discussions, and by building consensus among the stakeholders.

Lessons Learnt from similar projects in the past will, in most cases, be able to set a direction.
Consultant will encourage using the available information in the form of project documentation,
personal as well as institutional memory of those involved in the relevant projects.

Shrestha-GRID-DCON JV Form Tech 4 -74


`Technical Proposal for Amenities Designs and Drawings Preparation work of Field Survey, Soil Investigation, Utility Survey &
Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25

Process Documentation is yet another approach which will be highly emphasized. Consultant will
develop system and tools for process documentation and encourage those involved in maintaining
thorough documentation of each process procedure adopted in making decisions, be it in engineering
norms/standards, public/stakeholders’ consultation / consensus building etc. This will help maintain
transparency, ownership and set a best practice trend.

Sharing of Experiences between the Consultant and the Client will be encouraged.

6.2 DIFFERENT STUDY & ANALYSIS TOOLS IN REPORT PREPARATION

It is always the philosophy of the Consultants to be innovative in their approach to provide the quality
output at the end, which brings value to the project as well as to the Clients. The innovativeness to
achieve quality could be in terms of value management, knowledge sharing, and use of appropriate
software –AutoCAD for drawings preparation, arc GIS, Microsoft Project for Management Plan,
Excel for Calculation & analysis, WinWord for Report Preparation and MS PowerPoint for
presentation and adopting quality assurance systems to achieve the Projects' objectives. In addition,
consultant will participate further with the key stakeholders for the detail analysis of the project.

A structured design will be used in order to achieve quality questionnaires and checklists. The
meetings, reconnaissance survey and meetings will be facilitated by the concerned experts to ensure
the required output of above. Photographic survey will be extensively used to back up the collected
information. Team will be visit all the identified project place for examining the technical, social,
environmental analysis. Digital design data from CAD programs can be uploaded to data collector.
Total stations use a modulated near infrared light emitting diode, which sends a beam from the
instrument to a prism. The prism reflects this beam back to the instrument. The portion of the
wavelength that leaves the instrument and returns is assessed and calculated. Distance
measurements can be related to this measurement. The innovativeness could be in terms of making
effectively use of the lessons learned from the previous similar projects in the overall supervision
process.

The Consultants will encourage the team members and other professionals/ individuals to be creative
in thinking and to use initiatives to overcome obstacles so that the monitoring process becomes
smooth. This will be activated by good knowledge base of efforts and results accumulated over the
years through working on many projects in varied geographical conditions both by the professionals
and the consultants.

Whole of the project will be totally supervised under the supervision of Team Leader till the end of the
project and the whole provided team will work in full fledge in field as well as in the office for the
completion of the project in the given time.

The team will be working interdependently under the TOR in project to produce effective and
economic output using modern technology. Therefore, it is utmost important that each member of
team follow the methodology and techniques of field work, gathering information and analyzing the
data. In this backdrop, the study members will have one full day orientation discussion at consultant’s
office. The study methodology and tools to be used will be widely discussed with analytical framework

Shrestha-GRID-DCON JV Form Tech 4 -75


`Technical Proposal for Amenities Designs and Drawings Preparation work of Field Survey, Soil Investigation, Utility Survey &
Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25

and design framework. Each member will agree and adopt the methodology to accomplish the study.
Supervision of building will be done with effectively, which make variable construction cost due to
need of various kind of exterior and interior infrastructure for sustaining the building complex
effectively and economically. Different option in foundation type, construction material, structure type
(Concrete, steel or composite), construction type, construction schedule will be checked for getting
economic and effective option for building construction.

The consultant will arrange monthly briefing meetings with the client to make them aware of the
progress of the project and different methods and techniques being used in the study. Any feedback
can readily be adopted without much affecting the progress of the study.

Consultant's team will apply the established practices of the earned value analysis (EVA). The earned
value analysis reflects the clear and transparent picture of Project's progress in terms of cost and
time. EVA recognizes that: (a) if you are not spending money quick enough, you will not finish on time;
and (b) if you are paying more for the works completed so far than you estimated, you will end up
over-budget. EVA technique will be applied to report progress of project as a whole and progress of
each individual contract. The self-explanatory Figure below depicts the performance measurement
using EVA. On the basis of the EVA, corrective measures, if needed, will be recommended to bring
the Project activities in right track.

The Budgeted Cost of Works Scheduled (BCWS) plotted against scheduled time will act as a
baseline for comparing the progress. At the end of the reporting period Actual Cost of Work
Performed (ACWP), indicating the cost of works to date, will be plotted on the same graph. Another
curve, Budgeted Cost of Work Performed (BCWP), representing the planned budget for the
quantity of works completed, is also plotted to complete the graph.

Shrestha-GRID-DCON JV Form Tech 4 -76


`Technical Proposal for Amenities Designs and Drawings Preparation work of Field Survey, Soil Investigation, Utility Survey &
Design along with Design Review and Detail Project Report Preparation Work for Cancer Hospital Building, Boundary Wall &
Additional Buildings at Lohana, Janakpurdham, Ward No -25

Analysis of the above three curves provides quick and reliable project/ contract/ performance
information at any reporting time.

The Consultant will pay particular attention to approaches that inspire confidence and a desire to
produce sustainable results. All involved Project authorities, individual personnel; local organizations
will be encouraged to recognize themselves as an important integral part of the development
machinery. The approach of the Consultant will be to maximize this sense of team work.

The consultant will arrange monthly briefing meetings with the client to make them aware of the
progress of the project and different methods and techniques being used in the study. Any feedback
can readily be adopted without much affecting the progress of the study.
