5.0 Method and Procedure

5.1 Setting out

Area shall be surveyed by surveyor and mark as per the approved layout and workshop
drawings. Where difficulty is being experienced in achieving accuracy, then the
Construction manager will be consulted and agreement will be reached on the best
solution. All control points given on the survey drawings issued for construction shall be
followed. AFC surveyors shall verify all survey control points from the DM given reference
prior to implementing the survey control layout.
Once AFC verified that all the given points survey layout conformed to the DM control
point and duly check by the Engineer. AFC surveyor shall start making the layout of the
primary vertical and horizontal controls point. This control points shall be fixed
permanently using concrete around the steel peg and location is mark on the drawing.
An empty drums or visible marking shall also be provided for easy identification to avoid
any trucks, equipment in damaging the control points. This setting out has to be approved
by Engineers Surveyor.

5.2 Excavation
5.2.1 Starting time, sequence and the completion time of the excavation will be
according to the detailed construction program, which will be prepared
separately.

5.2.2 Prior to excavation commencing, the area will be checked for existing
services. This information shall be obtained from the relevant
authority/drawings. All the services/obstruction discovered will be
communicated to Engineer. To verify the existing services, necessary trial
pit / trenches has to be done and recorded.

5.2.3 Where permanent works are clashing with existing services, the following
action will be taken

a. The Engineer will be notified immediately in advance of any proposed

service interruption.

b. No interruption to any existing services will be done until permitted in

writing by the concern authority approving the measures to be taken for
the alternatives.

5.2.3.1 NOC will be taken authorities, if any underground cables and utilities
are suspected in that area

5.2.4 Where permits or licenses are required to be utilized, they will be obtained
before excavation works starts.

5.2.4.1 CAT Scanner will be used to find the presence of underground

cables and utilities and depth of the utilities.

5.2.5 Before the excavation starts, hand excavation will be done to ensure the line
and depth of all the underground services if any and shall be recorded for
future use.

5.2.6 Clearing and grubbing will be done by scarifying and removal of top loose soil
before the excavation.

5.2.7 Excavation will be done by using mechanical machines, suitable sized for the
task, as shown in the equipment list or by hand. An experienced labor will
accompany the mechanical operation, to observe the excavation in case of
an unmarked services.

5.2.8 If uncharted or incorrectly charted services be encountered during the

excavation, the Engineer will be informed immediately, and such services will
be removed/sealed/rerouted as per the Engineers instructions. To avoid
encountering uncharted services trial pit / trench has to be carried out.

5.2.9 Excavation will be performed to the lines and grades indicated on the
drawings. The surveyor will monitor the excavation depths to prevent any
unauthorized excavation and maintain the excavation levels within the
tolerance. Survey report will be submitted by surveyor for Engineers
approval.

5.2.10 Existing structures or facilities adjacent to the excavation area, which are
likely to be damaged by settlement that may occur due to excavation, will be
protected prior to the excavation works and method of protection will be
submitted for the approval of the Engineer, Existing structure's photograph
will be taken before and after construction if possible. Fixed benchmarks will
be maintained to check levels and coordinates of existing structures before
and after construction. Any damage to the existing structures will be
reinstated to its original condition as per the direction of the engineer.

5.2.11 The sides of any excavation done as per approved excavation shop drawing
which is likely to collapse, will be sloped, stepped or shored to an extent
depending on the materials being excavated.

5.2.12 During the trench excavation extra care will be taken to ensure the sides are
stable, sufficiently wide enough for ample working room, and bottom of the
excavation will be angle sloped to establish invert elevations.

Sloping and benching will be done in the Excavation trenches as per

approved drawings. If sloping and benching could not able to do it, then
shoring will be provided.

Excavations greater than 1.25 meters deep shall not be permitted unless a
shoring system is provided in accordance with a specific design by a
professional.

organization or by using an open excavation that is approved by the

Specialized Department.

All the Excavated sand will be kept 2mtr away from the edge of the
excavation. Exclusion zone will be maintained, and separate access will be
given for vehicle and pedestrian.

5.2.13 If the existing ground water table is above the excavation level, dewatering
may be required and in that case, a detailed dewatering system procedure
will be submitted for approval to maintain the excavated area free of water.

5.2.14 Manual excavation shall be done 150mm before required level to avoid over
cutting and disturbance of formation level.

5.2.15 Any loose / soft spot and or weathered rock encountered to be conformed
with Engineer by Field Density Test results before blinding shall be removed
and replaced with approved blinding concrete up to the required formation
level.

5.2.16 Any over excavated area made, the same shall be reinstated by filling it
approved blinding concrete up to the required formation level

5.2.17 Compaction of the excavated bottom will be achieved by utilizing a suitable

sized compacting machines. Plate compactors will be used at the localized
areas and rollers will be adopted for open areas.
5.2.18 Upon completion of the compaction, the Engineer will be informed and
suitability of the sub grade will be decided by conducting compaction tests,
plate bearing capacity test and soil classification tests by Independent testing
agency.

5.2.19 Excavated materials will be tested for suitability for backfilling purposes.
Suitable materials will be stored on site or off-site and unsuitable material will
be removed to the dumping area as per the instruction from the Engineer.

5.2.20 Water will be sprayed on dusty heap of materials.

5.3 Backfilling

5.3.1 Identify approved material stockpile to be used for backfill

5.3.2 Ensure that any backfilling material from outside source other than the
allocated stock piles is tested and approved
5.3.3 Materials will be free from rubbish and vegetation.
5.3.4 Water used for backfilling will be free from oil-grease, organic matter as
approved by the Engineer.
5.3.5 Record and agree the existing ground levels in areas where no excavation
was done.
5.3.6 Mark top of each layer and top of backfill level.
5.3.7 Inspect that all waterproofing activities have been completed, approved and
adequately protected.
5.3.8 Ensure that the structural elements to be backfilled has been inspected and
approved.
5.3.9 Special care shall be taken to prevent wedge action, eccentric loading or
overloading of the structure by equipment used in compacting backfilling
materials and to prevent damage to waterproofing.
5.3.10 Ensure coordination with other trade before backfilling.
5.3.11 Backfill shall be laid in layers of 250mm compacted to 95% MDD.
5.3.12 Survey report will be submitted by the surveyor.

5.4 Compaction

5.4.1 Once the areas is level and clear to the right invert elevation. A mechanical
compactor will follow to compact the area to the required compaction limit as
per specified percent of compaction Formation levels to min. of 95% MDD as
per BS 1377 Part 4 test 3.5 or 3.6. MDD shall be taken at frequent interval
and or as directed by the Engineer and area shall be selected by them.

5.4.2 The excavated, leveled and compacted area shall be at all times be kept free
from whatever source arising in contamination of any dirt or standing water
source arising by pumping or other means.

5.4.3 Trial for compaction shall be performed, recording the number of passes
using the required compaction machine. Once tested by an approved
independent laboratory and meet the required compaction min of 95% MDD it
will be the bases of compaction and guide for the whole operation. Using this
method the following operation shall be implemented at once.

a. Testing should be done every 250mm using the same method of

compaction.

b. 3rd layer follow using the same mention above.

Page 5 of 18

Once 3rd layer is compacted using the same number of passes and or more
passes. Depth test for the 2nd and testing the 3rd layer shall commence at
the same times.
