necessary in the interest of safety to provide berms he shall forthwith

bring the same to the notice of the Engineer-in-charge by prior written

order, which will be paid for at the rates accepted for the particular class

of material.

concrete and facilitate the removal of forms for use on wood form. The

oil should be capable of penetrating the wood forms and of remaining

sufficiently oily to eliminate sticking of and preventing absorption of

water and consequent warping.

The oil shall cover the form fully and evenly without excess or drip.

Care shall be taken to prevent oil from getting to the surface of

construction joints and on reinforcement bars. Special care shall be

taken into account thoroughly of the form stripes for narrow grooves so

as to prevent swelling of the forms. Immediately before concrete is

placed, precautions shall be taken to see that all forms are in proper

alignment and that, angles and tees are thoroughly secure and tight.

Where forms for continuous surface are placed in successive units the

form shall fit tightly over the completed surface so as to prevent

leakages of mortar from the concrete and to maintain accurate alignment

of surface.

12.3 Removal of Form:

Removal of form shall never be started until the concrete thoroughly

sets and harden adequately to carry its own weight, besides their live

load which is likely to come on the work during construction. The

length of time for which the forms remain in place shall be decided by

the Engineer-in-charge with reference to weather conditions, shape and

position of the structure or structural member and the nature and amount

of dead and live loads. In normal circumstances, form shall be struck

In no case shall forms be removed until there is assurance that removal

can be accomplished without damaging the concrete surface. No load

will be allowed to damage concrete surface. Heavy load shall not be

permitted until after the concrete reaches its designed strength. The

form shall be removed with great caution and without injuring the

structure or throwing heavy forms upon the floor.

reinforcement bars shall be cleaned of rust scale, dirt, grease or other

objectionable deleterious foreign substances, heavy flaky rust and mill

scale that can be removed by firm rubbing with burlap or equivalent

treatment. The fact that early stage rust has no detrimental effect on

bond hence could be disregarded shall not be accepted an excuse for

careless handling and storages of steel.

The thickness of concrete cover (Exclusive of plaster or other

decorative finish) shall be 50 mm at faces and 75 mm at ends.

15.0 ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT POINTS FOR ATTENTION:

15.1 Before the reinforcement bars are fixed in position it shall be verified

accordance with the relevant drawing and specification. For mistake

the contractor is liable for all rectification of mistakes at his risks and

costs.

15.2 Reinforcement bars shall be accurately placed and secured in position

by means of build in concrete blocks, metallic chairs, hangers, spacers

or other suitably approved devices at sufficiently closed intervals so

that they will not sag between supports and shall not be displaced

during the placing of concrete or any operation of the work.

15.3 Before starting concreting the contractor shall make certain that the

measurement of reinforcement placed have been recorded by the

authorized representative of the department and that the Engineer-in-

charge certifies to the correctness of reinforcement use. Engineer-in-

it should be cleared of all stumps, routs and other objectionable materials, etc.

145


particular care shall be taken that all organic matter shall be excluded from the

bund.During construction, contractor may after careful testing with specific

permission of the Executive Engineer bring suitable material from the areas

other than those indicated in borrow area plan. No extra payment would

however be admissible on this account.For the guidance of the contractor,

quarries will be shown at site if desired. The data presented therein are to be

taken only as a guidance and no claims shall be entertained in future due to lack

broken and manual kneading tampering by earth master rammer or timber

mallet should be done to have homogeneous mass without voids. The work of

hearing should be done in such a manner that it will be covered immediately

146


with casing material if included in the tender and will not remain half-way by

the end of season so as not to get damaged during monsoon. The ring bund for
