All opening or gaps through the embankment required for constructionpurpose shall be subject to approval and such openings or gaps if approved shall be constructed sothat the slope of the bonding surface between embankment in place and embankment to be placedis not steeper than 1:4 (vertical to horizontal). The satiability of each part of the foundation forplacing embankment material thereon and of all material shall be placed in layers and compacted.If the rolled surface rolled before any fresh layer is taken.5.4.2 REFERENCE POINTBefore commencing the placement all lines marking the extremities of berm, hearting, casingzone, filter etc. of the embankment shall be marked with reference to reference pillars. Thereference pillars shall be constructed in concrete or masonry and the information indicatingchainage, levels etc. shall be properly inscribed or written on them as directed by the Engineer-incharge.The contractor shall construct and maintain all reference pillars. No extra paymentadmissible to the contractor on this account.5.5 PREPARATION OF FOUNDATION AND SURFACE OF EARTH WORKPREVIOUSLY LAID5.5.1 GENERALNo material shall be placed in any section of the dam until the foundation of that section has beendewatered and suitably prepared and has been approved by the Engineer-in-charge it is necessaryto ensure the surface material of the foundation will be as compact and well bounded with the firstlayer of the embankment, as herein, after specified for subsequent layers of the earth fill. Allportion of excavation made for test pits or trials pits and all other exiting cavities found within thearea to be covered by earth fill which extend below the established line of excavation for damembankment foundation shall be filled with compaction earth fill materials as herein specifiedearth fill in embankment and payment therefore will be made as provided for hearting or casingzone in which section the pits or cavities are filled.5.5.2 FOUNDATION OTHER THAN ROCKThe seat of the dam after it is stripped shall be cleared of all loose or objectionablematerial before placing any layer. The surface shall then be watered and rolled as directed if thesurface material is not compact enough. The surface shall then be scarified by plugging or byharrows or by rack or by any suitable method all clods broken and then it shall be moistenedliberally but not more than 2% on wet side of optimum unless the foundation material alreadyContains optimum amount of moisture before the first layer is placed.ContractorExecutive engineerNo. of Corrections


1635.5.3 ROCK FOUNDATIONAny steps on large depression or humps caused by abrupt change in levels shall be evened out to fine slopeand the removal of rock will be paid under item of excavation. If necessary the surface shall be roughenedby shallow longitudinal trenches or corrugations cut in the rock and the removal of rock will be paid underthe item of excavation. The rock surface including all pockets or depressions shall be carefully cleaned ofsoil or rock fragments before placing of the first layer. Dykes and seams of soft material shall be openedout cleaned to the depth as direct and filled with selected impervious material or lean concrete as directedby the Engineer-in-charge. The foundation surface shall be moistened but not standing water shall bepermitted when the first layer is placed. The rock surface after moistening shall be given a slurry wash andimmediately after the wash (so as not allowing it to dry) first layer of the soil will be placed.If exposed surface is very rough and uneven, so as to preclude the use of power operated rollers andequipment it shall be brought to an even surface by filling the hollows and depressions in layers not morethan 100 mm thick with moist well soake soil, having moisture content equal to standard proctor optimummoistures as per table on page 2 of dry weight of soil, and compacting the same by hand, pneumatic ormechanical tampers.5.5.4 EARTH, WORK PREVIOUSLY LAIDThe treatment of the surface in the case before a fresh layer is placed will be the same as for thefoundations other than rock. Over compacted portions of embankment formed due to constant traffic whichare likely to separate from layer from below shall be entirely removed without any extra cost. Whensmooth rollers are used for compaction, the surface of a compacted layer shall be scarified or roughenedbefore fresh layer is laid on it, when sheep foot rollers are use for compaction, fresh layer may be directlylaid on the previously rolled surface. Water shall be sprinkled on the previous layer unless the material inthe surface is sufficiently wet. In case it contains moisture more than O.M.C. due to rain, etc. it shall beallowed to dry to have optimum moisture and rolled again.5.5.5 ROCK ABUTMENTS OF SIDES OF ROCK CUTTINGIt should be seen that no hollow sideways are left. Also all projections shall be trimmed. Before placingembankment against rock abutments or sides or rock cutting the same shall be trimmed to 1/2:1 slope,preferably 1:1 slope and then thoroughly washed with mud slurry and selected moist soil laid against thesame until the mud wash is still wet. The moist soil laid against rock surface shall be compacted with handContractorExecutive engineerNo. of Corrections


164rammers or air operated rammers. Soil with moisture content equal to O.M.C. + 2% of dry weight of soilwill be used for this portion. The cost of operation involved in preparation of foundation surface shall beincluded in the rates of embankment.5.5.6 LAYING AND SPREADING IN LAYERSApproved material free from clods and lumps, larger then 50mm size shall be conveyed directly fromsurface of excavation or from stock piles and laid in appropriate zones of embankment as directedby the Engineer-in-charge, on surface of the foundation or previously laid earth work prepared asspecified. The material shall then be spread on the embankment in uniform and continuous layerapproximately horizontal unless earth work in slope as been permitted or specified.a) The thickness of layers will depend on the nature of materials and the type of compactingmachinery. The thickness of a layer should be such the desired density after compaction shall be uniformlyobtained throughout the depth. For the guidance of the contractor it may be stated that the thickness of thelayer shall be 20 to 30 Cm, loose, compacted by sheep foot roller, 15 Cm loose and 11 Cm compacted forsmooth wheeled rollers, and 5 Cm loose and 5 Cm. compacted by hand or pneumatic or mechanicaltampers. The thickness of the compacted layers will be found out by taking level after every three (or lessnumber, if necessary) layers laid and compacted and finding out the average. The layers shall be spread inuniform with and in stages to finalized compaction by rollers, the works in various zones shall be as far aspossible be raised simultaneously. If however, any zone or its part is permitted by the Engineer-in-chargeto be raised higher than the part adjacent to it, the loose un-compacted material at the junction shall beremoved or watered and compacted.to b) specified density without extra cost as directed by Engineer-incharge.A minimum slope of 2:1 should be provided at such junctions & vertical difference between suchtwo junctions should not be more than 15 meters.c) No clods or lumps more than 5 cm. sizes shall be allowed in hearting and all lumps and clods shallbe broken up to the above size before rolling.d) The distribution and gradation, of materials through the impervious including the backfill of thecut off trench shall be free from layers or pockets of material differing substantially in texture orgradation from surrounding material. The excavation and placing operations shall be such that thematerials when compacted will be so blended as to secure the best practicable degree ofcompaction, impermeability and stability.e) The Engineer-in-charge may designate the location in the earth fill where the individual loadsshall be deposited. The most impervious materials shall be placed in the central upstream portionof the earth fill and the more pervious material shall be placed on either side of it so that permeability ofContractorExecutive engineerNo. of Corrections


165the fill will be gradually increased towards the upstream and downstream edges of the fill when materialdiffer in dry density but have about the same permeability the material having the greater density shouldbe placed in the outer sections of the zones of the dam as the case may be.f) Pebbles cobbles and rock fragments of size larger than permissible be found in otherwiseapproved earth fill material they shall be removed by the contractor either at the side of excavationor after being transported to the earth fill but before the material in the earth fill are rolled andcompacted. Such approved cobble & rock fragments shall be placed in rock to directory or wasteas approved and directed by the Engineer-in-charge.g) In order that proper compaction can be done upto the edges of the designed section thesection shall be widened by half meter on each side i.e. on downstream and upstream side & extramaterial shall be deposited for this purpose at the section. The whole section will then becompacted and then dressed and brought to the required slopes. Necessary extra quantity requiredto be handled for this purpose shall not be paid for and is considered to be included in the rate ofthis item.5.5.7 MOISTURE CONTENTa) The water content to the earth fill material prior to and during compaction shall bedistributed uniformly throughout each layer of the material. The difference ( Wo – W ) where Wois optimum moisture content as determined by the standard proctor compaction test, expressed aspercent of dry weight of soil and ‘W’ is the moisture content of the embankment being compactedexpressed as percent of dry weight of soil shall be as follows.i) (W-Wo) to be -2% to + 2% in case of at least 90% samples in case of hearting and 75% incase of casing, collected in a week.ii)(W-Wo) to be -3% to +3% in the case of the remaining 10% & 25% samples. The standardproctor compaction test will be made by the Department from time to time. The materialshall be brought to the proper water content by adding necessary amount of water ofallowing moisture to evaporate either at the borrow pit or on the dam before commencingcompaction of layers. When water is proposed to be added at the embankment, therequired amount of water to be sprinkled for given quantity of soil shall be first calculatedmaking due allowances for natural moisture content evaporation, base watering etc. Thiscalculated quantity of water shall then be thoroughly mixed with the soil by means of thedisc harrows or any other suitable method before compaction. All charges for watering andContractorExecutive engineerNo. of Corrections


166mixing are included in the item of embankment including pumping transporting pipelinesetc. as necessary.b) It may be necessary, to allow the water to soak into the soil after sprinkling and mixing ifnecessary, for sufficient time to have uniform moisture throughout the layer. Thecontractor shall not get any extra payment for stoppage of work necessitated for allowingsoaking of the soil.c) Water content in soil to be laid to fill hollows in rock foundation and rock adjustment andnear sides in rock cutting will be as specified under the specification for preparation offoundation (O.M.C. + 2 percent of dry weight of soil) The same moisture content shall beadhered to in case of filling at the sides of C. 0. T. around masonry structures.5.5.8 COMPACTIONa) Each layer after it is found to have specified moisture content uniformly distributed shallbe compacted to give specified density. No fresh layer of soil shall be laid and compacted unlessprevious layer is approved by the Engineer-in-charge. If the water content of the material spread inlayer is more or less than specified, compaction shall not be started unless the moisture is broughtto specified value.b) Compaction of the embankment shall be done by roller specified below except at partswhich are not accessible to the above rolling equipment. Compaction of casing zone shall be doneby smooth wheeled power rollers (8 to 10 tons) or by standard sheep foot rollers. Compaction ofhearting zone COT. filling shall be done by standard sheep foot rollers. The number of passesrequired by a particular type of rollers to attain specified density shall be decided by actual trialsfor different types of soils to be used & equal number of passes should be given to each layerbefore carrying out the field density test. The final control of compaction will, however be onbasis of specified densities and not on the number or passes.c) In the parts of dam inaccessible to the specified rolling equipment such as test pits or trialpits below foundation level, irregular sides or cut of trench and portions around & in Contact withstructures where the rolling equipment will not be permitted to operate, compaction shall beaccomplished with either hand or mechanical tampers of approved type. Rollers will not bepermitted to operate within 0.5 meter of concrete or masonry structures and the filling within thisdistance shall be tempted by mechanical tampers all material to be tamped shall be spread inlayers with thickness as specified. The moisture content of material & the degree of compactionContractorExecutive engineerNo. of Corrections


167shall be equal to that specified separately. Special care as directed shall be exercised to obtain agood contact and good bond with rock surfaces, surfaces of masonry or concrete.FIELD DENSITY TESTSThe degree of compaction will be such as to give dry density as specified below. The densitymeasurements will be conducted by the department from time to time to ascertain whether thecompaction attained is as specified for this purpose for every 300 Cubic meter of compacted earthwork of one zone or for every layer compacted of a particular zone at least two filed density testsper day will be taken and the P.D.D. & P.M.C. worked out by oven drying method or K-oilmethod if the correlation is found to exist with the former. Separate tests are to be taken for thevarious zones of the dam. As the oven drying method involves a 24 hours period to facilities workpreliminary control as follow shall be exercised. The wet density of compacted layer shall beequal to or above optimum wet density (0. W. D.) & placement moisture content (tested bykerosene oil burning method) with + 1% of the optimum moisture content, If any field density testrevel that the density is less than permissible either additional rolling with have to be done withoutany extra cost or layer may have to be removed at no extra cost. In the event of additional rollingbeing permitted if it is found that original moisture has evaporated, the layer may be broken up ofspecified as directed & watered and allowed to soak before rolling to bring the moisture content tospecified value.

Every day the leveling work shall be started from PBM andshall have to be closed on a PBM already fixed. Details of sketches for the survey work under all itemsshall be drawn in the field-books. So that identification of any details in the future it possible to<strong>irrigation</strong> department. These field books shall be handled over to the <strong>irrigation</strong> department.SURVEY MAPS :After the above survey work is completed, sets of survey maps will be prepared and submitted, to a scaleof 1:1000, including the grid levels, and the contours at 0.20 m. interval. The maps should havesufficient overlap to enable simultaneous study of area covered in two or more maps. An additional mapto scale 1:4000 as informed by the Executive Engineer would also be supplied, indicating all the areaunder the minor and also the contours at suitable intervals as informed by the Executive Engineer. (Thisis here after called the survey map for the minor)These maps should show topographical features such as field boundaries, canals and naturaldrainage channels, villages, houses, roads, tracks, right of ways, existing <strong>irrigation</strong> tanks, canals andtheir structures, existing well sand their distribution system, survey numbers, and any other featuresrelevant to the project work. Copies of available maps will be supplied to the consultant by thedepartment.ContractorExecutive engineerNo. of Corrections


176Relevant information from these maps will be superimposed by the consultant on the maps prepared byhim. Any major discrepancies between the village maps and actual conditions at site will beimmediately brought to the notice of the Engineer in change for his orders.The maps mentioned above will be submitted to the Executive Engineer along with original field booksand level book. They should not be used for further work till they re-approved by the department.3. PRELIMINARY DESIGN OF SYSTEM3.1 Sizes of chalks shall be determined and design of the water delivery below the outlet shall becarried out in accordance With OFD Manual which is supplied with the tender documents unlessspecifically modified in the tender documents.The Executive Engineer shall intimate to the consultant the modification, if any, which then be used byconsultant in this design.3.2 Survey, planning and design of the minors and sub-minors is also a part of the contract, their dischargingcapacities shall be worked out after carefully scheduling <strong>irrigation</strong> on each chak. Some adjustment inchak sizes may be made to ensure that as far as possible, the minor or sub-minor is not required to beoperated at less than 75% of its design capacity.Assumption of losses, capacity factors and other details for arriving at the discharging capacity of theminors and the sub-minors should be obtained from the Executive Engineer Even in case of design of aminor (and the system below if) the design ha. to be in consonance with the water delivery system on heupstream. The consultant should therefore ascertain from Executive Engineer whether any modificationin the assumptions for design of minor and the OFD works are necessary modifications, as intimated bythe Executive Engineer, will be used by the consultant in his design.Wherever possible, minors and sub-minors should be aligned along field boundaries to prevent cuttingup of small holding. Preliminary design reports, indicating hoe the details mentioned above werecalculated and hoe the details shown in the preliminary layouts (para 6 below) were arrived at, should beprepared and submitted to the Engineer in charge for approval of the department.4 PRELIMINARY IRRIGATION & DRAINAGE LAYOUT :After the survey maps (Para 3 above) are prepared and approved, and after the preliminary design report(Para 5 above) are approved. The consultant shall proceed with the design of part (1) (if included) (II)and (III) of the works (para 2 above) and accordingly, preliminary <strong>irrigation</strong> layouts initially, details ofminors, sub-minors, chak latitudes, chak sizes, outlet locations and levels, etc. would be indicated on thesurvey map for the minor, mentioned in para 2 above, the layout in case of minors should be based oneconomic considerations, including soil characteristic. For this purpose, in cutting reached, trial pits orauger holes will be taken as directed, if necessary.ContractorExecutive engineerNo. of Corrections


177This layout drawing, along with design detail would have to be reviewed and approved by thedepartment before the commencement of detailed design. However approval to the drainage networkwould be tentative till detailed designs are scrutinized.5) ADDITIONAL POINTS :Sufficient number of regulation and control structures and road crossing should be provided.Each water channel must end in a fail escape. Detail of connecting the escape with the natural drainshould be clearly indicated with longitudinal and cross-sections, wherever necessary.Service road should be provided for all channels with discharges exceeding 140 lit/sec. and sub-minorswith a discharge below 140 lit/sec. Dimensions of these roads/paths will be supplied by the ExecutiveEngineer.Flow measuring devices, should be provided at the heads of all minor, sub-minors and field channelsand at other locations indicated by the Executive Engineer.Unless otherwise indicated by the Executive Engineer the water delivery should be assumed to beunlined. Velocities should be calculated accordingly.Bed levels of all off-taking channels should be flush with the bed of the potent channels.Standardized notations should be used on all drawings. These should be initially got approved from theExecutive Engineer. The format for drawings (Dimensions, lettering, lettering name plate etc.) shouldalso initially got approved from the Executive Engineer.Though design details have been supplied or refereed to the consultant will be responsible for design ofa workable and economic system. To achieve this it may propose changes in the specifications to theExecutive Engineer. And adopted them, after receiving approval. Any other details necessary may alsobe asked for. The consultant if asked, will have to justify both technically and economically- any of thedesign and layout details suggested by him and if he is not able to do so, shall have to accept changedsuggested.6) ADDITIONAL NOTIFICATIONShould circumstances arise which call for additions / modifications in the design criteria the departmentshall intimate the additions / modifications to the consultant.
