4.6.5 Proportioning Of Concrete
The proportioning of cement, sand and stone ballast shall be as shown in the drawings or as
directed by the Engineer-in-charge. The contractor shall provide all necessary equipment
and plant to determine and control the actual quality of materials entering each batch.
The proportioning will be changed whenever, in the opinion of the Engineer-in-charge, it is
necessary, in order to maintain the standard of quality required by these specifications.
Cement will not be gauged by volume but the size of the concrete batch would be such as to
require the use of a bag or bags of cement. For the purposes of computations, the volume of
each bag of 50 kg. shall be taken as 0.034 cum.
During the concreting operations of some of the smaller components of work the Engineerin-charge may, however, permit adoption of part bag batch under strict supervision.
The coarse and fine aggregates shall be gauged by wooden “Farmas”or measures of
approved size suitable to measure quantity of aggregate for the required mix correctly.
When filling “Farmas” the material shall be poured loosely and struck off level. No
compaction shall be allowed.
Quality of water to be used, in litres per bag of cement for each type of concrete, will be
determined and fixed by the Engineer-in-charge. Only the quantity of water, so fixed, will
be used for preparing the concrete. The water-measuring device to be used by contractor
will be such that it discharges the measured quantity of water into the mixer quickly without
any spillage, and that no leakage from it occurs when it is closed. Adjustment in the mixing
water for moisture content in aggregate shall also be made from time to time as per the
directions of the Engineer-in-charge.
The time for obtaining uniform mix for a particular type of concrete shall be initially
determined by the Engineer-in-charge, and the same time shall be adhered to for mixing in
all subsequent batches of that type of concrete, unless revised by the Engineer-in-charge.
The adequacy of mixing shall be determined in accordance with IS: 1199-1959 or
subsequent amendments or revisions.
4.6.6
Mixing Concrete
(i)
Mechanical Mixing

pclause of the coarse aggregate shows complete coating of mortar containing its
proportionate amount of cement. In no case shall the mixing be done for less than 2
minutes after all the ingredients have been put into the mixer.
(ii)
Hand Mixing
Where hand mixing is permitted by the Engineer-in-charge for small jobs or for
certain other reasons, it shall be done on a smooth watertight platform large enough
to allow efficient turning over of the ingredients of concrete before and after adding
water. Mixing platform shall be so arranged that no foreign material shall get mixed
with concrete nor does the mixing water flow out. Measured quantity of the coarse
aggregate shall be spread to an even layer on the mixing platform. The fine
aggregate shall also be measured in a gauge box (measuring box) and spread evenly
over the coarse aggregate. The requisite quantity of cement shall thereafter be turned
over in dry state and the mixing operations continued until they are mixed
thoroughly. A measured quantity of water shall then be added and the entire mass
turned and returned until all the pclauses of coarse aggregate are fully covered with
mortar and the mixture obtained is of uniform colour and required consistency.
4.6.7
Workability
Unless otherwise provided the concrete shall be so controlled that the slump at all times is
kept between 25 mm and 75 mm when tested in accordance with IS: 1999-1959 or its
subsequent amendments.
4.6.8
Quality
Samples for testing concrete, as mixed, will be collected by the KREDA for all classes of
mix, (a) when being delivered from the mixer, and or (b) when being placed in the forms
and tested in accordance with the relevant I.S. Specifications (IS: 199-1959) and (IS: 5161959) read with their latest revision. The Contractor shall provide all facilities for the
collection of concrete samples free of cost to KREDA. He will also make arrangements for
transporting and depositing these samples for testing at the laboratory or at KREDA field
office as per the direction of the Engineer-in-charge.
Test operations of the concrete shall be carried out by the Contractor under the supervision
of the Engineer-in-charge, to determine the average strength, of concrete of each class of
mix. The average strength of all test samples of particulars mix taken during a day shall not
be less than the acceptable strength.
The Engineer-in-charge, will specify the strength of the concrete to be laid by the contractor.
Laboratory test as per standard practice would be carried out with the use of specified
aggregate to determine the cement concrete required to give the desired strength in structure.
Cement concrete cubes shall be tested for compressive strength at 28 days. On the
concreting days No. of samples as detailed below shall be taken. Eighty five percent of these
samples must show strength above the specified strength. If however, this is not achieved

strength of three specimens. The individual variation should not be more than 15% of the
average.
All the relevant records regarding the quality of work shall be maintained by the contractor
or the Engineer-in- charge according to the instructions issued by the KREDA.
In case, the concrete is not accepted, the work will have to be dismantled and redone by the
contractor at his own cost.
4.6.9
Conveying
Concrete shall be conveyed from the mixers to the forms as rapidly and as practicable by
methods, which shall prevent segregation or loss of ingredients. There shall be no vertical
drop greater than 1.5 meters except where suitable device is provided to prevent segregation
or where specifically authorized by the Engineer –in-charge. Use of chutes etc. for
transportation of concrete shall be subject to the approval of the Engineer-in-charge. Such
equipment shall be suitably modified by the Contractor at his own cost to prevent
segregation and to suit the working conditions of any specific part of the work, where
necessary.
4.6.10 Placing Of Concrete
(i)
General
Concrete shall be placed as soon as possible in its final position and worked rapidly
into the corners and angles of the forms and around all reinforcement and embedded
items without permitting the materials to segregate. Free water collected in
depressions in forms shall be removed by bailing out prior to placing of fresh
concrete. The method shall be subject to the approval of the Engineer-in-charge.
KREDA
169
(2 x 750 KW) KHANDI MHP
TENDER DOCUMENT
Concrete shall not be placed in locations prohibited by the Engineer-in-charge. No
concrete shall be placed until all form work, installations of embedded parts and
placement of reinforcement steel, preparation of surfaces and necessary clean up has
been approved and measurement recorded. The contractor shall keep the Engineerin-charge informed of the schedule for placing concrete. Unless inspection is
waived off in each specific case, placing of concrete shall be performed only in the
presence of an authorized representative of the Engineer-in-charge.
(ii)
Time Interval Between Mixing And Placing
No cold joints shall be allowed to form. Concrete shall be placed before the initial
set has occurred i.e. within thirty minutes of release from mixers unless otherwise
authorized by the Engineer-in-charge.
(iii)
Retempering Of Concrete
Re-tempering of concrete will not be permitted. Any concrete, which has become so
stiff that proper placing cannot be assured, shall be wasted, and the contractor will
be charged for any materials furnished by the KREDA at the point of delivery to the
contractor.
(iv)
Lifts In Concrete
The permissible depth of concrete placed in one lift or course will be determined by
the Engineer-in-charge for each structure. All concrete shall be deposited in
approximately horizontal layers not exceeding fifty centimetres in thickness unless
otherwise specifically authorized or directed by the Engineer-in-charge. The
placement shall be carried at such a rate that all concrete surfaces set to grade shall
not have reached their initial set before the additional concrete is placed thereon.
Slabs shall generally be placed in one layer unless the depth is so great that this
procedure will produce objectionable results. In walls, the layers shall terminate at
the top and bottom of door and window openings and shall terminate at such levels
as will conform to architectural details.
(v)
Rate Of Placing Concrete
Concreting shall continue without avoidable interruption, until the structure or
section is completed or until a satisfactory construction joint can be made. Concrete
shall not be placed faster than the placing crew can compact it properly. The rate of
deposition shall be such, as to have no adverse effect on the placement of concrete,
particularly near the forms and around the embedded equipment/ metal work where
the rate of placing shall not exceed the limitations placed by the Engineer-in- charge.

Placing Concrete Through Reinforcement
In dropping, concrete through reinforcement care shall be taken so that no
segregation of the coarse aggregate occurs.
(vii)
Adverse Weather Conditions
No concrete shall be placed during rain, high winds, dust storms, and similar
condition without the prior approval of the Engineer-in –charge. In extreme weather
conditions concreting shall be done in conformity with IS: 7861(Part-I and Part-II)
latest edition. No claim shall lie against the KREDA on account of any action by the
Engineer-in-charge in this behalf.
(viii)
Replacement Of Rejected Concrete.
Concrete, which is not placed and compacted in accordance with these specifications
and is in the opinion of the Engineer-in-charge of inferior quality shall be removed
and replaced by the Contractor. The entire cost of removing and replacing such
rejected concrete shall be borne by the contractor including the cost of all materials
required in the replacement.
4.6.11 Vibration Of Concrete
Soon after placement of concrete, proper spreading and tamping shall be done, Concrete
shall be consolidated to the maximum practicable density so that it is free from pockets of
entrapped air between coarse aggregate and close smugly against all surfaces of forms and
embedded materials. The vibrators shall be of the internal type, of adequate size, and shall at
all times be adequate in number or units so as to properly consolidate the concrete. Form
vibrators shall not be used unless specifically approved by the Engineer-in-charge. Internal
vibrators shall have a vibration of not less than 7000 impulses per minute when in operation
while submerged in the concrete. The amplitude of vibration shall be sufficient to produce
satisfactory compaction. The duration of vibration shall be limited to that necessary to
produce adequate compaction without causing objectionable segregation and shall continue
until bubbles of entrapped air have practically ceased to escape. While compacting each
layer of concrete, the vibrating head shall be allowed to penetrate and vibrate the concrete in
the upper portion of the under lying layer in the same lift. Subsequent layers of concrete
shall not be placed until the layers previously placed have been worked thoroughly as
specified. The disturbance of reinforcement embedded in concrete beginning to set shall be
avoided. Care should be taken to avoid contact of vibrating head with the surface of forms.
4.6.12 Equipment Not To Be Disturbed
Once placement of concrete has commenced at a given location, it shall not be interrupted
by diverting and placing the equipment to other locations.

4.6.13 Finishing Of Concrete Lift Surface
The top surface of each lift shall be finished to level by adequate vibration to produce not
only the degree of consolidation desired in the surface layers of concrete but also a surface
with the desired degree of roughness for bond with the next lift. Surface vibration or
excessive surface working including screeding of any kind will not be permitted in placing
concrete. Coarse gravel protruding from the surface of the lift shall be worked down into the
mass during the compacting or vibrating operations. All top surfaces not covered by forms
and which are not to be covered by additional concrete or back filled shall be carried slightly
above grade, as directed by the Engineer-in-charge and struck off by board finish. After the
top surface of the lift is finally compacted it shall be immediately and carefully protected
from pedestrian traffic, running water, heavy rains or any activity, which may in any manner
affect the setting of the concrete, or damage it.
4.6.14 Construction Joints
When the work is to be interrupted, or the concrete surface upon or against which fresh
concrete is to be placed and to which new concrete is to adhere, has become so rigid that the
new concrete cannot be incorporated integrally with it, shall be defined as the construction
joint. Construction joints shall be provided at locations shown on the drawings or as directed
by t he Engineer-in-charge. All such surfaces shall be given the treatment as given in the
following paragraphs before the subsequent pour of concrete.
4.6.15 Horizontal Joints
All horizontal construction joints in the work shall be sloped enough to provide free
drainage of clean up water. All such joints in exposed faces shall be sharp, level and in
straight line. Each joint shall be prepared to receive the succeeding lift by having all loose or
defective concrete coatings and foreign materials removed by the means of air-water jet
applied at high velocity before the concrete has taken its final set. However, in case it is
considered undesirable to disturb the surface of the lift before final set has taken place,
surface cutting by means or air water jet will not be permitted. In such cases use of wet sand
blasting will be required after the final set. Where it is not practicable to clean the joints after
forms are fixed, these shall be cleaned by air-water jet or wet sand blasting and washed at
the last opportunity prior to fixing of the forms. The surface of such lifts shall again be
washed with air water jet just prior to the placing of the successive lift of concrete in order to
remove all foreign and loose materials which may have accumulated since the first clean-up.
Manual scrubbing and chipping may be allowed by the Engineer-in-charge where cleaning
by sand blasting and air water jet may not be possible. The surface of the lift when ready
will be covered with an initial layer of mortar 10 to 15 mm thick and of the same cement
sand proportion as in the concrete mix. The surface of concrete, before placing the mortar
shall be thoroughly wet but free from any standing or excess water.

exposed surface of the structure. The method of disposal of the water shall be subject to the
approval of Engineer-in-charge.
4.6.16 Vertical Joints
All vertical construction joints shall be made with stop boards, which shall be rigidly fixed
and slotted to allow for the passage of reinforcing steel. If desired by Engineer-in- charge,
keys and or dowel bars shall be provided at construction joints. Water stops of approved
material shall be provided if so specified in the drawings or as desired by the Engineer-incharge. Concrete shall be carefully placed against faces of the vertical construction joints so
as not to disturb the water seals etc. Whenever the placing of concrete is interrupted long
enough and the concrete has taken final set, the working face joints shall be roughened,
cleaned thoroughly, wetted and shall receive neat cement slurry before placing fresh
concrete.
4.6.17 Curing & Protection
All concrete shall be protected against injury until final acceptance. Exposed finished
surfaces of concrete shall be protected from the direct rays of sun for at least 72 hours after
placement. Fresh exposed concrete shall also be protected from the action of rains, flowing
water and mechanical injury.
Concrete in which standard Portland cement is used shall be kept continuously moist for at
least 7 days by covering with water saturated material or a system of perforated pipes,
mechanical sprinklers or porous hose or by any other approved method. All horizontal
surfaces shall be continuously kept wet till the next pour regardless of time. Curing shall be
maintained so as to prevent detrimental loss of water from the concrete during the entire
curing period. Curing period where special cement is used shall be specified by the
Engineer-in-charge.
All conduits and other formed openings through the concrete shall be closed during the
entire curing and as long there after as practicable to prevent circulation of air and the
resultant drying and cracking.
Construction joints shall be cured in the same manner as the other concrete and shall also, if
practicable be kept moist for at least 72 hours prior to the placing of additional concrete
upon the joint. Horizontal surfaces shall be cured by sprinkling water or by covering with
damp sand or may be cured by the use of wet quilts or mats, which will satisfactorily
provide the required curing water. If damp sand or quilt is used for curing, it shall later be
completely removed. The time of applying damp sand shall be specified by the Engineer-incharge before which curing will be carried out by other approved methods.

colouring material and impurities, which may stain the finished work.
The actual method of curing adopted shall be subject to the approval of the Engineer-incharge. The contractor shall have on hand and ready to install before actual concrete
placement is started, all equipment needed for adequate curing and protection at all locations
of concrete placement.
In limited areas and for special purposes the use of an approved and properly applied
compound may be permitted at the discretion of the Engineer-in-charge to restrict the
evaporation of the mixing water. Such curing compound shall be of the surface membrane
type, which will not be used on joints.
The curing compound shall be used as directed by the Engineer-in-charge. The cost of
curing compound and all operations involved in its use shall be to the contractor’s account
and shall be included in the unit price in the schedule of bids for the concrete on which the
curing material is used.
Finished concrete surface shall be protected from stain or abrasions. Surfaces or edges likely
to be injured during construction period shall be kept properly protected by leaving forms in
place or erecting protective covering to the entire satisfaction of the Engineer-in-charge.
In case, the curing operations are inadequate or unsatisfactory, the Engineer-in-charge shall
be entitled to take such steps as he may deem necessary to make good the deficiencies and
defects, at the Contractor’s risk and cost.
4.6.18 Repairs Of Concrete
Repair of concrete shall be performed by skilled workmen and in the presence of an

imperfections to the specified requirements. Repairs of imperfections on formed concrete
shall be completed as soon as practicable within 26 hours after removal of forms. Fins and
encrustations shall be neatly removed from the surface concrete that is damaged from any
cause and concrete that is honeycombed, fractured or otherwise defective and concrete,
which because of excessive surface depression, must be excavated and built up with dry
pack mortar or concrete as thereinafter specified to bring t he surface to the prescribed lines.
Where bulges and abrupt irregularities protrude outside the formed surface, the protrusions
shall be reduced by bush hammering and grinding, so that the surfaces are within the
prescribed units. Dry pack filling shall be used for holes having at least one surface
dimension a little greater than the hole depth or holes left by the removal of fasteners from

backfill or concrete is to be placed shall not be repaired. Dry pack shall not be used for
filling behind reinforcement or for filling holes that extend completely through a concrete
section. Mortar placed under impact by use of mortar gun shall be used for holes too wide
for dry pack filling and too shallow for concrete filling and not deeper than the far side of
the reinforcement that is nearest to the surface. Concrete filling shall be used for holes
extending entirely through concrete section for holes, which are greater in area than 900
sq.cm, and deeper than 10cms and for holes in reinforced concrete, which extend beyond
reinforcement. All materials, procedures and operations used in repair of concrete shall be
subjected to the approval of the Engineer-in-charge. All fillings shall be bonded tightly to
the surface of the hole and shall be sound and free from shrinkage cracks after the filling
have been cured and dried. Fillings in surface, prominently exposed to view, shall contain
sufficient cement to produce the same colour as that of the adjoining concrete. The cost of
all materials including cement, labour and equipment used in the repair of concrete which
before final acceptance of the work found to be damaged or defective or not within the
specified limits shall be borne by the contractor. The cement for repair of concrete shall be
issued to the contractor to the extent, it is actually consumed, and its cost recovered from the
contractor.
4.6.19 Finishes And Finishing
Allowable deviations from plumb or level and from the alignment, profile grades, and
dimensions shown on the drawings are defined as “Tolerances ” and are to be distinguished
from finishes as defined herein. The class of finish and the requirements for finishing of
concrete surface shall be as specified in this clause. The finish to be given to the various
surfaces shall be as hereinafter specified. In the event that finishes are not clearly specified
herein, the finish to be used shall be that specified for similar adjacent surfaces as
determined by the Engineer-in-charge. Finishing of concrete surface shall be performed
only by skilled worker and in the presence of an authorized representative of Engineer-incharge. Concrete surface shall be tested by the Engineer-in-charge. Off sets caused by
displaced, or misplaced from something or lining from sections or by loose knots in forms
or otherwise defective from lumber, will be considered abrupt irregularities and will be
tested by direct measurement. All other irregularities will be considered as gradual
irregularities, and will be tested by use of a template consisting of straight edge or the
equivalent there of for curved surfaces. The length of the template will be 1.5 meter for
testing of formed surfaces and three meters for testing of unformed surfaces. Before final
acceptance of the work, the contractor shall clean all exposed surfaces.
4.6.20 Shuttering
(i)
General
Forms for placing concrete shall either be of wood/steel or of other approved
material. The type, size, quality and strength of all materials of which the form are
made shall be subjected to the approval of Engineer-in-charge. The formwork
should conform to the shape, lines and dimensions shown on drawings. The forms
shall be sufficiently strong to carry without undue deformation the dead weight of
KREDA
175
(2 x 750 KW) KHANDI MHP
TENDER DOCUMENT
the concrete at the time of casting as well as the working load. The forms shall be
strong enough to withstand the effects of vibration. The joints in the formwork shall
be sufficiently tight to prevent any loss of mortar through leakage. The form work
shall be such as to ensure a smooth uniform surface free from honey combs, air
bubbles, bulges, fins and other blemishes, Any such blemish or defect found on the
surface of concrete shall be rectified by the Contractor at his expense and to the
satisfaction of the Engineer-in-Charge.
(ii)
Cleaning And Treatment Of Forms
All forms shall be thoroughly cleaned off old concrete, wood shavings, saw dust and
dust sticking to the forms or other foreign materials that may contaminate the
concrete or interfere with the fulfilment of the requirement of specifications relative
to the finish of the formed surfaces.
Before the concrete is placed in position, the form surfaces that are to come in
contact with concrete shall be treated with a suitable non-staining oil or composition,
not harmful to the concrete, so as to prevent sticking of concrete and facilitate
removal of forms.
Care shall be taken to ensure that the oil/composition does not come in contract with
the reinforcing steel or the existing concrete surface.
These shall also not be allowed to accumulate at the bottom of the shuttering.
Oil/composition that has the approval of the Engineer-in-charge shall only be used.
(iii)
Inspection And Approval Of Forms
After the forms are erected and before any concrete is placed, the forms shall be
inspected for line, level and grade, with respect to the structure, adequacy of bracing,
freedom from dirt fixture, keyways, openings etc. No concrete shall be placed in the
forms unless the forms have been checked and the placement of concrete permitted
by the Engineer-in-charge. Such approval shall however, not absolve the contractor
of his responsibility for the adequacy and stability of the formwork. The contractor
shall, at all times, be solely responsible for its sufficiency, strength and stability.
(iv)
Plane Smooth Shuttering
Shuttering pieces shall have ply board of approved quality or steel plates sufficiently
rigid to withstand pressure and buckling. After the removal of the shuttering the
concrete surface shall be finished smooth by fine carborandum stone to the
satisfaction of the Engineer-in-charge in case of undulations of the surface. Forms
may have to be cut to accommodate embedment for which no extra payment shall be
made. Embedment material shall be supplied by the KREDA free of cost.
4.6.21 Removal Of Forms
KREDA
176
(2 x 750 KW) KHANDI MHP
TENDER DOCUMENT
Removal of forms shall not be started until the concrete is thoroughly set and has aged to
give it sufficient strength to carry its own weight, and the live load likely to come on the
work during the course of construction. The length of time, the forms should remain in place
shall be decided by the Engineer-in-Charge with reference to weather conditions, shape and
position of the structural member and the nature and the amount of dead and live loads to
which the structural members are subjected to.
The following minimum intervals of time as specified by IS: 456-2000 will generally be
allowed between placing of concrete and stripping of forms but the period shall be increased
in case of wet weather and also at the discretion of the Engineer-in-charge.
a)
Walls, columns and vertical faces
b)
c)
d)
Slabs (props left under)
Beam soffits (props left under)
Removal of props under the slabs
i)
Spanning up to 4.5 m
ii)
Spanning of over 4.5 m.
Removal of props under beams and arches.
i)
Spanning up to 6 m
ii)

e)
24 to 48 hours as may be decided by the
Engineer-in-charge.
3 days
7 days
20 days
28 days.
22 days
28 days.
These minimum periods are expected to be safe and no claim be made against KREDA for
any damage owing to the period not being sufficient. The contractor may, how ever, he so
desires extend the above period to longer intervals. This shall not however, constitute any
reason for any claim or extension of time. In no case should the forms be removed until
there is assurance that the removal can be accomplished without chipping, sapling of
defacing the concrete surface.
Further more, heavy live loads should not be permitted until after the concrete has reached
its designed strength. The exact period shall be fixed by the Engineer-in-charge and shall be
binding on the contractor. The forms should be removed with great caution and without
jarring the structure or throwing heavy forms upon the floor. In order to achieve this end,
edges and clamps shall be used whenever practicable instead of nails.
In order to avoid excessive stresses in the concrete that might result from swelling of the
forms wooden forms for wall openings shall be loosened as soon as this can be
accomplished without damages to the concrete. Forms for the openings shall be constructed
so as to facilitate such loosening.
The work of striking forms shall be carried out under the personal supervision of a
competent foreman in the employment of the contractor. The contractor shall be solely
responsible for any damage that may be caused by negligence, lack of proper precaution or
hastiness etc. in the matter of removal of forms and shall make the same good at his own
cost to the satisfaction of the Engineer-in-charge.

4.6.22 Formed Surfaces
The classes of finish shall apply as follows:
i)
ii)
iii)
iv)
v)
vi)
Formed surfaces upon or against which backfill or concrete is to be placed require
no treatment after form removal except removal and repair of defective concrete and
the specified curing. Correction of surface irregularities will be required for
depressions only and only for those for which when measured as described in clause
of shuttering as hereinbefore exceed 2.5 cms.
All permanently exposed surface for which the finishes as mentioned in clause of
shuttering do not apply, will need no filling of pits or sack rubbing and no grinding
other than that for surface imperfections. Surface irregularities measured as
described in clause shall not exceed 6mm. for abrupt irregularities and 12 mm. for
gradual irregularities.
Formed surface, the appearance of which is considered by the KREDA to be of
special importance such as surfaces of structure prominently exposed to public
inspection will not require general stoning or grinding. Surface irregularities,
measured as described in clause of shuttering shall not exceed three millimetres for
abrupt irregularities and 12 mm for gradual irregularities.
Formed surface for which accurate alignment and evenness of surfaces are of
paramount importance from the stand point of eliminating destructive effects of
water, aside from any necessary repairs and the specified curing no surface treatment
will be required for such surfaces except that irregularities measured as described in
clause of shuttering shall be reduced or eliminated in accordance with the following
requirements.
All abrupt irregularities on other surfaces shall not exceed 6 mm for irregularities
parallel to the direction of flow and three mm for irregularities exceeding these
limits; the excess shall be eliminated by grinding.
Gradual irregularities shall not exceed 12mm. Gradual irregularities greater than the
specified 12mm shall be reduced by grinding so that they are within that limit.
4.6.23 Unformed Surface
Interior surfaces shall be sloped for drainage where directed. Surfaces which will be exposed
to the weather and which would normally be levelled shall be sloped for drainage. Unless
such as tops of walls and curbs shall be sloped approximately 3 cms. Per meter of width,
broader surfaces, such as walls, roadway platforms, and decks shall be sloped approximately
2cms per meter. The classes of finish shall apply as follows:
i)
Screeded Finish
(Unformed surfaces that will be covered by backfill or by concrete and surfaces of
sub floors, which will be covered by concrete floor topping). This finishing
operation shall consist of levelling and screeding to produce even and uniform
surfaces. Surface irregularities measured and as described in clause of shuttering
shall not exceed 19 mm.
KREDA

TENDER DOCUMENT
Float Finish
Sufficient levelling and screeding shall be done to produce even uniform surface.
Floating may be performed by use of hand or power driven equipment. Floating
shall be started as soon as the screamed surface has stiffened sufficiently and shall be
minimum necessary to produce a surface that is free from screed marks and is
uniform in texture. If trowel finish is required floating shall be continued until a
small amount of mortar with out excess water is brought to the surface, so as to
permit effective trowelling surface. Irregularities measured as described in clause of
shuttering shall not exceed 12 mm. for gradual irregularities. Joints and edges of
gutters, sidewalks, and entrance slabs and also other joints and edges shall be tooled
where directed.
iii)
Trowel Finish
This finish is to be used for unformed surface of tunnels, floors etc. when the
floating surface has hardened sufficiently to prevent excess of fine materials from
being brought to the surface steel trowelling shall be started. Steel trowelling shall be
performed with firm pressure, which will flatten the sandy texture of the floated
surface and produce a dense uniform surface, free from blemishes and trowel mark,
except the light steel trowelling shall be permitted on surfaces of slabs to be covered
with built roofing or membrane water proofing, in which even light trowel marks
will be considered objectionable. Surface irregularities, shall not exceed 12 mm. for
gradual irregularities.
4.6.24 Tolerances For Concrete Construction
The intent of this clause is to establish, tolerances that are consistent with modern
construction practices yet governed by the effect that the permissible deviations might have
upon the structural action or operational function of the structure. Deviation from the
established lines, grades and dimensions will be permitted to the extent set-forth herein
provided that the KREDA reserves the right to diminish the tolerance set-forth herein if such
tolerances impair the structural action or operational function of the structure. Concrete
forms shall be set so as to ensure completed work within the tolerance limit specified herein.
Where the tolerances are not stated in the specifications, or drawings these shall be in
conformity with the provisions of this clause. The notation of the construction drawings of
specific maximum or minimum tolerances in connection with any dimension shall be
considered as supplemental to the tolerances specified herein. Rejected work shall be
remedied or removed and replaced at the expenses of and by the contractor.

its subsequent amendments for mild steel bars and conform to IS:786-1966 and its
subsequent amendments, for tor steel bars. All steel used for reinforcement shall be clean,
free from loose rust, loose mill scale, oil. Grease paints, dust, mortar, or any rolling defects.
Bars with kinks or bends other than those shown on drawings shall not be used. The
contractor shall get the steel tested from a recognised test house and submit the test result.
c) Bending Of Reinforcement
Bars shall not be bent or straightened in a manner that will injure or weaken the material.
Bars shall be bent cold to the specified shapes and dimensions shown on drawings or as
directed by the Engineer-in-Charge using proper bar bender operated by hand or power to
attain proper radius of bends. Heating of bars shall not be allowed. The hooks at the end of
the plain mild steel bars shall not have an inner diameter of less than four times the diameter
of the bars or as indicated on the drawings and shall have a length of straight part beyond the
end of the curve of at least four times of diameter of the bar.
d) Placing Of Reinforcement
All reinforcement bars shall be accurately placed in exact position shown on the drawings
and shall be securely held in position during placing of concrete by welding or by annealed
binding wire not less than 1mm in size and conforming to the IS:280 and by using stays,
concrete blocks or metal chairs, metal hangers, supporting wires or other approved devices
at sufficiently close intervals.
Bars will not be allowed to sag between supports or displaced during concreting or any other
operation connected with work. All devices used for positioning shall be of non-corrodible
material. Wooden and metal supports will not extend to the surface of the concrete except
where shown on the drawings Pieces of broken stone or brick and wooden blocks shall not
be used. Layers of bars shall be separated by spacer bars, precast mortar blocks or other
approved devices.
As far as possible, bars of full length shall be used. In case this is not possible, overlapping
of bars shall be done as directed by the Engineer-in-Charge. When practicable, overlapping
bars shall not ordinarily touch each other. But be kept apart by 25mm or 1.25 times the
maximum size of the coarse aggregate whichever is greater by concrete between them.

In case of welding being done to join bars of different sizes, the length of the lap shall be
governed by the diameter of smaller size bars, where the lap weld on both sides is not
feasible then the lap length given may be double of the length on one face.
The welding procedure, the number of passes for depositing weld and the quality of
electrodes shall conform to the Indian standards specifications as mentioned above or as
approved by the Engineer-in-Charge. Welding shall be done with due care to produce
welded joints of sufficient strength. Due care as required shall be taken, not to damage the
parent material in the vicinity of the welded joints. The surfaces of the bar to be welded shall
be cleaned of all loose scale, rust, grease or other foreign matter before welding.
Reinforcement after being placed in position shall be maintained in a clean condition until
completely embedded in concrete. Special care shall be exercised to prevent any
displacement of reinforcement in the concrete already placed.
To protect reinforcement from corrosion, concrete cover shall be provided as indicated on
the drawings. All bars protruding from concrete and to which other bars are to be spliced
later and which are likely to be exposed for a considerable length of time shall be protected
by a thick coat of neat gout cement.
In case of columns and walls, vertical bars shall be kept in normal position with timber
templates having slots accurately cut in for bar position. Such templates shall be removed
after concreting has progressed up to a level just below the templates.

Bar crossing each other, where required, shall be secured by binding wire (annealed) of size
not less than 1mm conforming to IS:280 in such a manner that they do not slip over each
other at the time of fixing and concreting.
e) Measurements
Steel required for reinforcement shall be arranged by the contractor in conformity with
clause 4.11.2 at his own cost. Reinforcement (both mild steel and tor steel) shall be
measured in length separately for different diameters as actually used in the work excluding
overlaps. From the length so measured the weight of reinforcement shall be calculated in
kilograms on the same basis. Length shall include hooks at the ends. However, the wastage,
overlaps, welding joints, space bars, chairs and annealed steel wire for binding shall not be
measured. The cost of these items shall be deemed to be included in the unit rate for
reinforcement.
Before starting concreting the contractor shall make certain, that the measurements of the
reinforcements placed have been recorded and the Engineer-in-Charge certifies to the
correctness of the reinforcement used. Failure to do so might mean no payment or payment
at the unquestioned discretion of the Engineer-in-Charge for the reinforcement concerned.
f) Rates
Rate of reinforcement steel (both mild and tor) shall include the cost of steel, its cutting,
bending, binding and placing in position as shown on the drawings and as directed by the
Engineer-in-Charge. It shall also include the cost of all devices for keeping reinforcement in
position, cost of jointing (including welding) as per approved method and all wastages,

shall be roughened with brushes while the concrete is green. This shall be done carefully
without disturbing the concrete. Before laying the floor all dirt and caked mortar droppings
shall be removed, and the surface of the slab raked.
4.22.2 Proportioning & Mixing
The floor shall be laid in two layers. The lower layers 22 mm thick and the upper 3 mm
thick in case of plain 25mm. thick floors. It shall be 37 mm and 3 mm respectively for 40
mm thick floors. In case of coloured floors, the thickness of the two layers shall be 19 mm
and 6 mm respectively for 25 mm thick floors and 34 mm and 6 mm for 40 mm thick floors.
The lower layers in both the cases shall consist of cement concrete in the specified mix. The
upper layer in case of plain floors shall consist of mortar comprising of 4 parts cement and
one part of marble dust or whit e lime putty and in case of coloured floors it shall consist of
one part coloured cement obtained from approved source and 2.5 parts of sand. If coloured
cement is not used then approved colouring material shall be mixed with cement in the
proportion specified by the manufacturer or as required by the Engineer-in-charge to get
proper tinges.
The ingredients for lower layer of floor (including water) shall be accurately measured,
cement will be measured by volume, unit taken being one bag and the volume taken per bag
of 35 litres of 50kg. Cement. The other ingredients shall also be measured by volume.
In order to ensure uniformity of colour it is important to keep the same proportions of
cement, sand and stone ballast and the same quantity of water throughout. It is important
that same brand of cement is used for the whole floor of one room. The quality of cement
required in one room should be calculated in bag units, counting any portion of a bag as a
full bag. Then all these bags should be opened and the cement contained in these bags shall
be mixed well till the whole mass of cement is of the same uniform colour and this mixed
cement shall be again refilled in the bags and stored in a dry place and used as expeditiously
as possible.
The aggregate and cement shall be thoroughly mixed either in a hand mixer or a mechanical
mixer. Hand mixing can be resorted to in exceptional circumstances only. The amount of
water to be added shall be minimum necessary to give just sufficient plasticity for laying
and compacting.
In hand mixing, the cement and sand in the prescribed proportions will first be mixed dry,
being turned over by “Phaoras several times till the whole mass is well mixed and assumes a
uniform colour. This mixture is then added to the prescribed quantity of stone ballast and the
whole turned over by “Phaoras” or Belchas at least six times till all the pieces of stone
ballast are well coated with the dry mixed cement and sand. After the mixture is thus well
mixed dry, water is to be added gently through rose cane & in quantities only enough to
make the mixture of plastic consistency, the entire mix being turned over by Belchas. The
quantity of water to be added shall not exceed 30 litres per bag of cement, which shall be
kept constant for the mix laid in one room. The mix shall be used in the work within half an

hour of the addition of water after its preparation, no concrete which has began to cake or set
shall be used even after mixing. Such mortar shall be immediately removed away from the
site of work.
4.22.3 Laying Panels
The floor shall be divided in to panels according to the details given in the drawings or as
ordered by the Engineer-in-charge. Ordinarily no panel should exceed 1.0 meter in its
smaller dimension and 2 meters in larger dimension. The border shall have mitered joints at
t he corners of the room & intermediate joints shall be straight line with the panel joints.
Five pits, four at the corners of the panel and one at the centre of the panel of size approx. 8
x 8 cms shall be made in the base concrete to facilitate proper bond.
4.22.4 Shuttering
Glass or Aluminium strips- 3 mm thick and depth equal to the thickness of floors, shall be
fixed on the sub-grade along the panel lines with cement mortar and with their tops true t o
the desired level.
The surface of base concrete shall then be soaked with water at least of twelve hours and
surplus water shall be removed napping immediately before laying concrete. Neat cement
slurry @ 2.73 kg. Per sq. meter shall then be thoroughly brushed into the prepared surface of
the sub-grade just ahead of laying.
4.22.5 Concreting
The concrete shall then be laid by means of showels and troweled over to give 22 or 37 mm
layer in case of plain floor and 18 mm or 34 mm in case of coloured floors immediately
after it has been evenly showelled, it shall be beaten with thapkies, or mason trowels Blows
shall be fairly heavy in the beginning but as consolidation takes place light rapid strokes
shall be given till cream of mortar comes on top.
4.22.6 Finishing
The surface of the floor shall be left for some time till moisture disappears from it.
Excessive trowelling shall be avoided. Use of dry cement or cement and sand mixture
spranked on the surface to stiffen the concrete or to absorb excessive moisture shall not be
permitted. The mortar for top layer shall be provided with water to form thick slurry and
shall then be laid finished with wooden or stainless steel float. During the finishing, any
hollows, which appear, shall be made up true.
The surface during the finishing shall be frequently tested with straight edge and sprit level
and when finished shall present true smooth surface truly horizontal and free from
undulation or float marks.
