CROSS REFERENCE:-
This Segment Quality Plan should be read in conjunction with the

following documents:
ISO 9001 2000 Quality management system
Contractor Document / Technical Specifications
MoRTH/IS/ASTM /ACI Codes, where applicable
IRC: SP: 57-2000, Guideline on Quality system for roads.
Survey and Setting out for PQC:
Material Required:
Cement:
Any of the following types of cement may be used with prior approval
of the Engineer:
(i) Ordinary Portland Cement IS: 269
(ii) Portland Slag Cement IS: 455
(iii) Portland Pozzolana Cement IS:1489
Cement to be used may preferably be obtained in bulk form. It shall be

stored in accordance with stipulations contained in Clause 1014 and shall
be subjected to acceptance test prior to its immediate use.
.
Coarse Aggregate:
Aggregates to be used in the construction of PQC will be Crushed

aggregates .
The aggregate complying IS: 383 will be used.
Max Size of coarse aggregate 25mm as per MoRTH 601.2.3.2

(Fourth Revision : August 2001).
Fine Aggregate:
Clean, natural sand from River Banas form location Triveni 20km form
Ladpura will be used. The material conforming IS: 383 is ensured.
The fine aggregate shall consist of clean, natural sand or crushed

stone sand or a combination of the two and shall conform to IS: 383.
Fine aggregate shall be free from soft particles, clay, shale, loam,
cemented particles, mica, organic and other foreign matter. The fine
aggregate shall comply with MoRTH 602.2.4.3.(Fourth Revision :
August 2001).
Water:
Water used for mixing and curing concrete conforming to IS:

456: 2000.
In case of PQC During hot weather, water for preparation of
concrete will be taken form water chilling plant.
Admixtures:
Admixture conforming to IS: 6925 and IS: 9103 to improve

workability of concrete or extension of setting time to be done.
Storage of materials :
Aggregates:
Aggregate will be stock piled separately and sufficient distance will

be maintained from each fraction to avoid intermingling.
Storage space must be easy to inspection, removal and restorage
of materials.
Regular testing of aggregate stock pile will be exercised to ensure
required gradation control.
Cement
Bulk cement will be stored in bulk storage containers having
200MT capacity and the number of such bulkers will be sufficient
to cater to the requirement at site.
Water
Water will be tanks covered at top and cleaned at regular intervals.

The intake of pipe will be enclosed to exclude silt and other solid
materials and there shall be a minimum depth of 0.60 m of water
below the intake at all times.
Proportioning of concrete
Concrete Strength
The pavement concrete should be a class M-40 concrete with a

minimum 28 days compressive characteristic strength of 40 MPa
1. Characteristic flexural strength at 28 days = 4.5 MPa
2. Target mean strength at 28 days = 5.80MPa
3. Water cement ratio =0.45 Maximum
4. Slump as per IS: 1199 =31+/-15 mm
Minimum flexural characteristic strength of 4.5 MPa.
The ration between the 7 & 28 days strengths of 4.5 Mpa.
For each batch
7days (avg.)
The average flexural strengths ( R7) =
28 days (avg.)
R7 to be determined for three decimal levels.
(Flexural strength of any Six consecutive 7day test result) >4.50+1.65*s

S: Standard deviation of the group.
Workability:
The control of workability will be done by the slump test

Slump will be controlled so that mix is compacted and finished
without undue flow.
The exact slump required at plant and site will be exercised during
trail patch.
Separation Membrane :
Two applications of approved wax-based white �pigmented curing

compound will be applied on DLC.
First coat will be applied immediately after DLC laying and
compaction and the other before start of PQC.
The process of application will be done using mechanical sprayer.
The other parameters will be meeting the additional specification
Clause- A-12.
Preparation of base :
Any visible defects / cracks more than 10mm size to be required by

fine cement concrete mix.
Surface will be made clean of dirt or extraneous material and free
from damage before application compound.
Joints:
The exact location and type of joint to be transferred at site as

mentioned in drawing.
Concrete Penetrometer and testing as per ASTM C 403 will be
used in monitoring setting of concrete / Maturity of concrete and
saw cutting period.
Initial saw cut of 3mm wide , 100mm depth in transverse and
longitudinal direction will be provided after initial set(approximately
6~8hrs).
Final saw cutting 10~12mm wide ,20~25mm depth will de provided
after 14days of curing at accommodate joint sealant.
The staggering of transverse joints with reference to the base will
be minimum 0.3m.
