retained for the purpose of ensuring safety, and to ensure care and vigilance while
turning, reversing or moving the road vehicle in any other manner, at an inclination to the
running railway track or the siding, as the case may be.

2.6 The contractor also undertakes to make good at his own cost any inconvenience, loss,
damage, or other expenses caused to or incurred by the railway administration and to pay
such amount as determined by the engineer to be recoverable from the contractor as
penalty or damage for any omission, negligence, careless, oversight or accidents on the
part of any of the contractor’s agents, drivers or attendant or any person to whom the
services of the holder of the permit (issued by the Engineer) has been lent other wise
made accessible or available.

2.7 Any breach of these conditions by the contractor and/or his agent affecting the safety of
movements of trains, engines or other rolling stock of the Railway shall constitute a
breach of contract by the contractor entailing liability for termination of contract for
default on the part of the contractor.

2.8 The Tenderer/s will be permitted to make use of the level crossing for crossing the track
after observing the standard railway safety precaution. If such precautions are not taken
these will be enforced by the railway by adequate arrangements and the cost thereof shall
be recovered from the contractor.

2.9 The contractor/s shall inspect the proposed site of work and acquaint himself /
themselves with site conditions working hours storing spaces for materials, approach road
/ pathway available etc. and all relevant items connected with the execution of work. No.
claim shall be entertained from contractor/s and shall make his own arrangements for
approach/approach roads from out side railway land and contractor will bear entire
expenses such as road taxes payment on right of way etc. to outsiders.

and assessment of safe bearing capacity of the founding hard strata based on the
Energy level concept is acceptable.

A. Energy imparted to the strata can be worked out by the formula:

WxhxnxN
E.L. = ----------------- tm/ m² /cm
d x Ap

Where, W = Wt. of the chisel in t. (1 to 2 T)

h = drop of the chisel in m. (2 to 3)
n = efficiency factor (0.7)
N = No. of blows in half an hour duration.
Ap = Area of pile cross section In m2.
d = depth of penetration in cm.
 103
E.L. = Energy Level
B. Minimum embedment into rock and pile capacity on the strata shall be considered
as follows:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Energy level Min. Embedment in rock Pile Capacity
(TM/SQM/cm) of given energy level
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Min 100-200 3 x Dia of pile 175 T/m2
Min.200 - 300 1.5 x Dia.of pile 250 t/m2
More than 300 1.0 x Dia.of pile 300 t/m2
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

C. The values of pile capacity given above consider the effect of friction etc. and the
global behavior of the pile is also considered and hence friction resistance of pile
shall not be further added.

D. In case hydraulically operated rotary drill machines or such similar equipment is

applicable, the rock strata shall be properly identified, confirmed and the
necessary embedment length provided as per design requirement. The minimum
embedment of piles in hard (basalt) rock shall be not less than 1.25 diameter,

all the work required to complete the construction included in the contract in accordance
with the drawings and the specifications and to the entire satisfaction of the Engineer.
3.2 Organization and Equipment:
The Contractor shall submit erection & launching plans prepared by the fabricator,
showing a method and procedure of erection, compatible with the details of fabrication.
A detailed scheme must be prepared showing stage-wise activities, with complete
drawings and working phase-wise instructions. This should be based on detailed stage-
wise calculation and take into account specifications and capacity of erection equipment
machinery, tools, tackles to be used and temporary working loads as per Codal
provisions.
The scheme should be based on site conditions, climate conditions and available working
space including space required for temporary staging, etc.

The scheme should indicate precisely the type of temporary fasteners to be used as also
the minimum percentage of permanent fasteners to be fitted during the stage erection. The
working drawings should give clearly the temporary jigs, fixtures, clamps, spacer
supports, etc.
Unless otherwise provided in the contract, the contractor shall supply and erect all
necessary false work and staging and shall supply all labour, tools, erection plant and
other materials necessary to carry out the work complete in all respects.
Prior to actual commencement of erection and launching all equipment, machinery, tools,
tackles, ropes, etc. Need to be tested to ensure their efficient working. Frequent visual
inspection is essential in vulnerable areas to detect displacements, distress, drainages, etc.
Deflection and vibratory tests shall be conducted in respect of supporting structures,
launching truss as also the structure under erection and unusual observations reviewed
looseness of fittings are to be noted.
For welded structures, welders’ qualifications and skill are to be checked as per standard
norms. Non-destructive tests of joints as per designers’ directives are to be carried out.
Precision non-destructive testing instruments available in the market should be used for
noting various important parameters of the structures frequently and systematic record is
to be kept.
Erection work should start with complete resources mobilized as per latest approved
drawings and after a thorough survey of foundations and other related structural work. In
case of work of magnitude, maximum mechanization is to be adopted
The structure should be divided into erectable modules as per the scheme. This should be
pre-assembled in a suitable yard/platform and its matching with members of the adjacent
module checked by trial assembly before erection.
The structure shall be set out to be required lines and levels. The stocks and masses are to
be carefully preserved. The steel work should be erected, adjusted and completed in the
required, position to the specified line and levels with sufficient drifts and bolts. Packing
materials are to be available to maintain this condition. Organized “Quality Surveillance”
checks need to be exercised frequently.
Before starting work the Contractor/s shall obtain necessary approval of the Engineer as
to the method adopted for erection & launching, the number and character of tools and
plants. The approval of the Engineer shall not relieve the Contractor/s of his responsibility
for the safety of his method or equipment or from carrying out the work fully in

be followed. The material shall be carefully handled so that no parts will be bent, broken
or otherwise damaged.

50 percent of holes with service bolts and barrel drifts in the ratio 4:1. The service bolts
are to be fully tightened up as soon as the joint is assembled. Connections to be made by
close tolerance or barrel bolts shall be completed as soon as practicable after assembly.
Any connection to be site welded shall be securely held in position by approved methods
to ensure accurate alignment, camber and elevation before welding is commenced.

proper assembling and fitting up of parts by moderate use of drifts(by a moderate amount
 121
of reaming and slight chipping or cutting shall be reported immediately to the Engineer

of specifications for Road and Bridge works (IRC).

1.3 Steel:

Only Thermo Mechanically Treated (TMT) bars of specified brand in respective item
conforming to IS: 1786 shall be used as reinforcing steel except for bars of diameter less
than 10 mm. All steel bars shall be procured from original producers. Reinforcement shall
be free from rust, mortar, loose mill scale, grease, oil or paints. The materials shall be tested
in accordance with relevant IS specifications and necessary test certificates shall be
furnished.

1.3.1 Protection of reinforcement

Uncoated reinforcing steel shall be protected from rusting or chloride contaminations.

Reinforcement shall be free from rust, mortar, loose mill scale, grease, oil or paints. This
may be ensured by thoroughly cleaning all reinforcements to remove rust using sand
blasting, mechanical brushing etc. Reinforcements shall be stored on blocks, or platforms
and above the ground in a clean and dry condition and suitably marked to facilitate
inspection and identification.
 128

1.3.2 Bending of reinforcement:

Bar bending shall be cold bent to the specified shape and dimensions to obtain the correct
radii of bends and shape. No heating of bars is permitted under any circumstances for
