 SPECIFICATIONS
EXCAVATION

Inspection of Site

The Contractor is deemed to have visited the Site and to have ascertained the nature of the material to
be excavated.

Dealing with water

The Contractor’s attention is drawn to the depths below ground level of the foundations and the
consequent possibility of having to deal with water. Unless otherwise specified the Contractor will be
required by pumping or other means to keep the excavations dry during construction.

Shoring of existing structure

The Contractor’s attention is drawn to the requirements for shoring parts of the structure of the existing
building during construction and the consequent need to carry out the excavation in stages. He is not
allowed to excavate within the proximity of the existing structure without the drawings and/or
instructions by the Engineer to do so.

Excavation Dimensions

The excavations are to be executed to the widths and depths shown on the Drawings or to greater
depths if instructed by the Engineer to obtain satisfactory foundations.

If the contractor excavates to any widths or depths greater than those shown on the Drawings, or as
instructed by the Engineer he shall at his own expense fill in such widths or depths beyond that
instructed or shown with concrete Grade “D” to the satisfaction of the Engineer.

Rock

“Rock” means any hard material, which in the opinion of the Engineer can be removed only by use of
compressors or by wedging and the Engineer’s opinion shall be final. Decomposed rock, tuff or other
material which can be removed by pick, traxcavator or other mechanical plant will not be classed as
rock. All material classified as rock may, if approved by the Engineer, be used as hardcore filling and
the measured quantities of imported filling will be adjusted accordingly. All rock so used must be
broken to the required size as hereafter described before being used.

Blasting

No blasting will be permitted.

Bottom of excavations to receive foundations

The Contractor shall report to the engineer when secure bottoms to the excavations have been
obtained. Any concrete or other work executed before the excavations have been inspected and
approved, shall if so directed, be removed and now work substituted after the excavations have been
approved, all at the Contractor’s expense. The surface of the bottoms to excavations shall be levelled
or graded to falls as required, with 50mm layer of concrete Grade “D” blinding (maximum 20mm gauge
aggregate) and finished to a smooth surface with a wood float.

24
A corporate body under the aegis of the Ministry of Youth Empowerment, Sports and Recreation (NYC Act 1998)
Hardcore filling

Hardcore for filling under float, etc, shall be good hard stone ballast to the approval of the Engineer,
broken to pass not greater than a 150mm ring or to be 75% of the finished thickness of the layers
being compacted whichever is the lesser and graded so that it can be easily and thoroughly
compacted by rolling.
The filling is to be laid in layers each of a consolidated thickness not exceeding 225mm and well
watered and rolled with a vibrating roller (minimum 14 tons) or a ten ton roller. Where rolling is
impossible, compaction shall be by hand or mechanical tampers. The top surface of the hardcore
shall be levelled or graded to falls as required and blinded with similar material broken to 25mm gauge
and surfaced with a 25mm layer of stone dust, well watered and rolled to receive concrete as
described.

Materials found in excavations

No material found in the excavation is to be used in the works without the written permission of the
Engineer.

CONCRETE WORK

Architect/Engineer

For the purpose of the concrete structure the Structural Engineer shall be deemed invested with the
duties and be the representative of the Architect.

Code of Practice

All workmanship, materials, tests and performance in connection with the reinforced concrete work
shall be in conformity with the latest edition of the British Standard Code of Practice (C.P. 110 “The
Structural use of Concrete”) where not inconsistent with these Preambles.

Supervision

A competent person approved by the Engineer shall be employed by the Contractor, whose duty will
be to supervise all excavation operations, making and erection of formwork, bending and fixing of
reinforcement and all stages in the preparation and placing of the concrete. All cubes shall be made
and site test carried out under his direct supervision, in consultation with the Engineer.

Contractor’s plant equipment and construction procedures

Not less than 30 days prior to the installation of the contractor’s plant and equipment for processing,
handling, transporting, storing and proportioning ingredients and for mixing, transporting and placing of
concrete, the contractor shall submit drawings for approval by the Engineer, showing the proposed
general plant arrangement, together with a general description of the equipment he proposes to use.

After completion of the installations, the operation of the plant and equipment shall be subject to the
approval of the Engineer.

Where these Preambles, the Bills of Quantities or the Drawings require specific procedures to the
followed, such requirements are not to be construed as prohibiting the use by the Contractor of
alternative procedures if it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of Engineer, that equal results will
be obtained by the use of such alternatives.

Approval of plant and equipment or their operation, or of any construction procedure, shall not operate
to waive or modify any provisions or requirements contained in these preambles governing the quality
of the materials or of the finished work.

25
A corporate body under the aegis of the Ministry of Youth Empowerment, Sports and Recreation (NYC Act 1998)
Levels and Foundations

The foundations of the works shall be carried down to depths as may be directed by the Engineer and
they must be cut as nearly to the size of the concrete as possible and the vacant spaces between the
concrete and the solid ground, excepting where otherwise shown, must be carefully filled in as
instructed by the Engineer.

All temporary timbering shall be removed but should any timber be left in or should any other work be
done beyond that specified, it will be at the Contractor’s own cost.
Tolerances

On all setting out dimensions of 7.5m and over a maximum non-cumulative tolerance of plus or 6mm
will be allowed, and for those under 6m the allowable maximum non-cumulative tolerance will be plus
or minus 3mm. On the cross sectional dimensions of structural members, unless otherwise required
by the Drawings, a maximum tolerance of plus or minus 3mm will be permitted.

The top surface of concrete floor slabs and beams shall be within 6mm of the normal level and line
shown on the Drawings. Walls and columns shall be truly plumb and non-cumulative tolerance of
3mm in each storey and not more than 12mm out of plumb in their full height will be permitted. The
contractor shall be responsible for the cost of all corrective measures required by the Engineer to
rectify work which is not constructed within the tolerances set out above.

Materials generally

All materials which have been damaged, contaminated or have deteriorated or do not comply in any
way with the requirements of these Preambles shall be rejected and shall be removed immediately
from the site at the Contractor’s own expense.

No materials shall be stored or stacked on suspended floors without the Engineer’s prior approval.

Samples and Testing

Every facility shall be provided to enable the Engineer to obtain samples and carry out tests on the
materials and construction. If these tests show that any of the materials or construction does not
comply with the requirements of these Preambles, the Contractor will be responsible for the costs of
the tests and the replacement of defective materials and/or construction.

Cement

Cement unless otherwise specified shall be Portland Cement of a Brand approved by the Engineer
and shall comply with the requirements of B.S. 12, and a manufacturer’s certificate of Test in
accordance with B.S. 12 shall be supplied for each consignment delivered to the site.
Cement may be delivered to the site either in bags or in bulk.

If delivered in bags each bag shall be properly sealed and marked with the manufacturer’s name and
shall be stored in a weatherproof shed of adequate dimensions with a raised floor. Each consignment
shall be kept separate and marked so that it may be used in the sequence in which it is received. Any
bag found to contain cement which has set or partly set, shall be completely discarded and not used in
the works. Bags shall not be stacked more than 1.5m in height.

If delivered in bulk the cement shall be stored in a waterproof silo either provided by the cement
supplier or by the Contractor but in either case the silo shall be to the approval of the Engineer.

Aggregates:

Aggregates shall conform with the requirements of B.S. 882 and the sources and types of all
aggregates are to be approved in all respects by the Engineer before work commences.

The grading of aggregates shall be one within the limits set out in B.S. 882 and as later specified and
the grading, once approved, shall be adhered to throughout the works and not varied without the 26
A corporate body under the aegis of the Ministry of Youth Empowerment, Sports and Recreation (NYC Act 1998)
approval of the Engineer. Fine aggregate shall be clean, crushed rock sand and coral sand, of hard
quality and shall be free from lumps of stone, earth, loam, dust, salt, organic matter and any other
deleterious substances. Coral sand shall be washed in running water to the satisfaction of the
Engineer. It shall be graded within the limits of zone 1 or 2 of Table 2 of B.S 882.

Coarse aggregate for concrete Grade ‘A’, ‘B’ and ‘C’ shall be crushed blue basalt stones to the
approval of the Engineer. It shall be hard, clean and roughly cubical in shape, non-porous, free from
dust, decomposed stone, clay, earthy matter, foreign substances or friable, thin, elongated or

size. If in the opinion of the Engineer the aggregate meets with the above requirements but is dirty or
adulterated in any manner it shall be screened and/or washed with clean water, if he so instructs at the
Contractor’s expense.

Aggregates shall be delivered to the site in their prescribed sizes or gradings and shall be stock-piled
separately on paved areas or boarded platforms in separate units to avoid intermixing, excessive
segregation and contamination with other materials. On no account shall aggregates be stock-piled
on the ground. Fine aggregates shall be allowed to drain until it has reached uniform moisture content
before it is used.

Water

The water used for mixing concrete shall be from an approved source, clean, fresh and free from
harmful matter.

and the mixing of water is 20 minutes less than the final setting time of cement.

Samples of works cube shall be taken at the place where concrete is finally placed in the structural
members.

Waterproof Concrete

Where “waterproof concrete” is specified, sealocrete or other approved waterproofing material and
plasticising agent shall be added to the mixing water in the proportion recommended by the
manufacturers and strictly in accordance their written instructions. Waterproof concrete shall be grade
B mix and shall meet all the strength requirements of the specified grade, except that the fine
aggregate shall consist solely of rock sand.

Changing proportion of Aggregates

The Engineer may any time during the contract, require the proportions of fine to coarse aggregates to
be altered in order to produce a mix of greater strength or improved workability and provided that the
total proportions of aggregate to cement remains unchanged, no claim for additional cost will be
considered.

Testing Equipment

The Contractor shall provide the following equipment for carrying out control tests on the site:

a) Straight edges 3m and 1.2m long for testing the accuracy of the finished concrete;
b) A graduated glass cylinder for use in the silt test for organic impurities in the sand;

the work. Mixers shall be of a capacity sufficient to take one whole bag of cement per batch. Smaller
size mixers shall not be used. The mixer shall be equipped with an accurate water measuring device
which shall be checked weekly for accuracy. All materials shall be thoroughly mixed dry before the
water is added and the mixing of each batch shall continue for a period of not less than two minutes
after the water has been added and until there is a uniform distribution of the materials and the mass
is uniform in colour.

The entire contents of the mixed drum shall be discharged before recharging. The volume of mixed
materials shall not exceed the rated capacity of the mixer. Whenever the mixer is started, 10% extra
cement shall be added to the first batch and no extra payment will be made on this account.

Consistency:

As a check on concrete consistency slump tests may be carried out and shall be in accordance with
B.S 1881. The Contractor shall provide the necessary apparatus and allow for the costs of such tests.
The slump of the concrete made with the specified water content, using dry materials, shall be
determined and the water to be added under wet conditions shall be so reduced as to give
approximately the same slump.

Conveying:

The concrete shall be mixed as near to the place where it is required as is practicable to avoid
rehandling and flowing, and only as much as is required for a specified section of the work shall be
mixed at one time, such section being concerned and finished is one operation without delay. All
concrete must be efficiently skilled and used in the works within twenty (20) minutes of mixing. It shall
be discharged from the mixer direct either into receptacles or barrows and shall be distributed by
approved means which do not cause segregation or loss of ingredients or otherwise repair the quality
of the concrete. Approved mechanical means of handling will be provided they are not longer than 6m
and their slope do not exceed 1 vertical to 2 horizontal is not less than 1 vertical to 3 horizontal.

Depositing

Placing of concrete in supported elements e.g slab, bed shall not be started until the concrete
previously placed in top parts of columns is no longer plastic and has been in place at least for two
hours.

Concrete shall be placed from a height not exceeding 1.3m directly into its permanent position and
shall not be worked along the shutters to that position. Unless otherwise approved, concrete shall be
placed in a single operation to the full thickness of slabs with beams and similar members. The
Engineer shall allow concrete to be placed for walls exceeding 150mm thickness from a height
approved system of formwork is used.

In addition, contractor will ensure that the concrete shall be deposited continuously such that no
concrete shall be deposited on concrete which had hardened sufficiently to cause the formation of
seams or places of weakness within the section. Placing shall be carried out at such a rate that the
concrete which is being integrated with fresh concrete is still plastic.

Concrete in columns may be placed in a height of 3m with careful placing and vibration to achieve
satisfactory results. Where the height of the column exceeds 3m suitable openings must be left in the
shutters on that this maximum lift is not exceeded.

Concrete shall be placed continuously until completion of the part of the work between construction
joints as specified hereinafter or of a part of approved extent. At the completion of a specified or
approved part a construction joint of the form and in the positions hereinafter specified shall be made.
A record of all such joints must be made by the contractor and a copy supplied to the Engineer.

CURING and PROTECTION

Periods and means of curing and protection:

Care must be taken that no concrete is allowed to become prematurely dry and the fresh concrete
must be carefully protected within two hours of placing from rain, sun and wind by means of massive
sacking, polythone sheeting, or other approved means. The protective layer and the concrete itself
must be kept continuously wet for at least seven days after the concrete has been placed. The
Contractor must allow for the complete covering of all fresh concrete for a period of 7 days. Heasian
or polythene sheeting shall be in the maximum widths obtainable and shall be secured against wind.
The Contractor will not be permitted to use old cement bags, hessian or other material in small piece.

Any concrete which fails to comply with these preambles or which shows signs of setting before it is
placed shall be taken out and removed from the site. Where concrete is found to be defective after it
was set, the concrete shall be out and replaced in accordance with the Engineer’s instructions. On no
account shall any faulty, honey combed, or otherwise defective concrete be repaired or matched until
the Engineer has made an inspection and issued instructions for the repair. The whole of the cost
whatsoever, which may be occasioned by the need to remove faulty concrete shall be borne by the
contractor.

REINFORCEMENTS

No concreting shall be commenced until the engineer has inspected the reinforcement in position and
until he has approved the same. The contractor shall give two clear days notice of his intention to
concrete.

Irrespective of whether any inspection and/or approval of the fixing of the reinforcement has been
carried out as above, it shall be the contractor’s sole responsibility to ensure that the reinforcement
complies with the details on the drawings or schedule and is fixed exactly in the positions shown
therein and, in the positions, to give the prescribed cover.

The contractor will be held entirely responsible for any failing or defect in any portion of the reinforced
concrete structure and including any consequent claims, third party claims, etc, where it is shown that
the reinforcement has been incorrectly positioned or is incorrect in size or quantity with respect to the
detailed Drawings or schedules. Unless permitted by the Engineer, reinforcement shall not be after
being embedded in hardened concrete.

Protection of exposed reinforcement

Where reinforcement projects frame concrete setting of the structure and this reinforcement is
executed to remain exposed to more than a month it is to be with a cement to prevent rust staining on
the finished concrete. This is to be brushed off the reinforcement prior to the continuation to
converting.

The Contractor shall be responsible for the co-ordination with the Electrical and other sub-contractors
for incorporating electrical conduit, pipes, fixing locks, chases, holes and the like in concrete members
as required and must ensure that adequate notice is given to sub-contractors informing them when
concrete members incorporating the above are to be poured. The contractor shall submit full details
including position of these items to the Engineer for approval before the work is put in hand. All fixing
blocks, chases, holes, etc, to be left in the concrete shall be accurately set out and cast with the
concrete.

FORMWORK

Materials and Design

Formwork shall be constructed of timber or steel or precast concrete or other approved material with
sufficient strength to withstand pressure resulting from placing and vibration of the concrete and with
rigidity to achieve the specified tolerances.

The design and Engineering of the formwork as well as its construction shall be the responsibility of
the contractor. The Formwork shall be designed for the loads, lateral pressure, pressure due to
cyclonic winds and other loads likely to be encountered on site.

Shops drawings for formwork including the location and reshoring shall be submitted for approval by
the Engineer before erection.

Construction

All formwork shall have joints close enough to prevent leakage of liquid from the concrete and
formwork shall be jacked or dedged and clamped or bolted to permit adjustments before concreting
and to permit easing and removal of formwork without jarring the concrete. Formwork shall be
securely braced and strutted against lateral deflections and vertical movements. Where formwork is
supported on previously constructed portions of the reinforced concrete structural frame, the
Contractor shall by consultation with the Engineer ensure that the supporting concrete structure is
capable of carrying the load and/or is sufficiently propped from lower floors or portions of the frame to
permit the load to be temporarily carried during construction.

Formwork shall be cambered to compensate for anticipated deflections prior to hardening of the
concrete.

Preparation for Concreting

The Contractor’s attention is drawn to the various surfaces textures and applied finishes required and
the faces of the formwork next to the concrete must be of such material and construction and be
sufficiently true to provide a concrete surface which will in each particular case permit the specified
surface treatment or applied finish.

At construction points contact surface of the form squeating for flush surfaces shall overlap 300mm
and shall held right against the hardened concrete to prevent effects or loss of mortar.

Methods of fixing and positioning of the formwork which results in holes through the concrete and/or
left in metal ties or similar in the concrete shall require Engineer’s approval.

All surfaces which will be in contact with concrete shall be piled or greased to prevent adhesion of
mortar. Oil or grease shall be of a non-staining mineral type applied as a thin film before the
reinforcement is placed. Surplus moisture shall be removed from the forms prior to placing of the
concrete.

Temporary openings shall be provided at the base of columns, wall and seam forms and at any other
points where necessary to facilitate cleaning, and inspection immediately before the pouring of
concrete. Before the concrete is placed the shuttering shall be trued-up, and the interior of the form
shall be completely cleared of all extraneous materials including accumulated water.

The reinforcement shall then be inspected for accuracy of fixing, immediately before placing the
concrete the formwork shall be well wetted and inspection openings shall be closed.

Formwork shall be removed without undue vibration or shock and without damage to the concrete. No
formwork shall be removed without the prior consent of the Engineer and the minimum periods that
shall elapse between the placing of the concrete and the striking of the formwork will be as follows:

Beam side walls and columns (unloaded) 2 days

Slab soffits (with props designed to left under) 7 days

Beam soffits (with props designed to left under) 10 days

Subject to work cubes achieving the specified strengths and the loads due to construction on them
being lighter than the designed loads. The props can be removed for:

Slab …….. ……… ……….. 10 days

Beams ……… ……….. 21 days

If the Contractor wishes to take advantage of the shorter stripping times as permitted above for beam
and slab soffits when propos are left in place, he must so design his formwork that sufficient props as
agreed with the Engineer can remain in their original position without being moved in any way until
expiry of the minimum time for removal of props. Stripping and re-propping will not be permitted.

Contractor shall be responsible for consequent damage arising from early stripping of formwork.

Making good:

After removal of formwork all projections, etc, on the concrete surface shall be chipped off, and made
good to the requirements of the Engineer. Any voids or honeycombing shall be treated as described
in “faulty concrete”.
