1 Unless otherwise stated in this bill of quantities, the items


included are measured according to the SMM7 measurement

2 In particular, unless otherwise specifically stated in a bill of quantities or


herein, the following shall be deemed to be included with all items; -
Labour and all costs in connection therewith - Materials, goods and all
costs in connection therewith - Assembling, fitting and fixing materials and
goods in position including all setting out - Plant and all costs in connection
therewith - Waste of materials - Square cutting - Establishment charges,
overhead charges and profit

3 Costs for works and services described in the various work sections that
are necessary in the execution of the works by the Contractor are to be
incorporated in the tender rates of the relevant sections.

4 Protection of finished works such that these are not damaged by the works
in progress.

5 The cited quantities are to be considered as provisional and may be


changed depending on site requirements

6 Any claims for variations in terms of rates and quantities are subject to the
approval of the Engineer in charge.

7 Variations that are not endorsed by the Engineer shall not be accepted.

8 Double Handling: The Contractor shall allow for such extra costs in his
rates and / or lump sums. No additional claims from the contractor for
double handling shall be accepted

9 Unless mentioned otherwise, all rates include for supply of materials,


labour, hire and use of equipment and tools (electrical power tools
included) hire and use of scaffolding, preparation works, cleaning etc. to
ensure a complete and finished job.
10 Dust Generation: All tools and / or equipment that usually generates dust
while in operation, shall be fitted with a vacum device to minimize dust
generation - wherever used

11 It is assumed that the tenderer has visited the site and made the necessary
inspection, familiarised himself with the works and has allowed a provision
for the complete installation of the works.

12 All material / debris resulting from demolition shall become the property of
the contractor, and include carting away to a dumping site approved by the
relevant authorities. The rates shall include for handling of all materials,
cranage, hire and use of chute

D30 PILING
General Notes:
Construction and testing of piles shall be as stipulated in the specifications
D30. Reference should also be made to the geotechnical investigation
report. Particular attention is drawn to the following specifications/
conditions.

On completion of boring, loose, disturbed or softened soil shall be removed


from the bore hole using appropriate methods. The Contractor is to ensure
that the bottom of the bore hole is clean and free from debris and any
cohesive material. Prior to concrete placement the cleanliness and
condition of the bore hole shall be checked by the use of a socket
inspection device.

All material resulting from excavations shall include carting away to an


authorised dumping site to be approved by the Engineer and relevant
authorities. Rate to include disposal of resulting material off site including
dumping tax.

Temporary & permanent casings shall be made of steel, length and


thickness (3mm minimum thickness) adequate for the purpose of
preventing water - in the case of the temporary casing - and unstable soil
from entering the pile excavations. For casing perforations refer to the
drawings. Casing shall be cylindrical and without any significant longitudinal
or diametrical distortion. In unstable bores casing shall be maintained in
advance of boring.

Measurers are to be taken to prevent uncontrolled inflow of water and/or


soil into the bore.

Rig standing time shall be measured only where specifically authorised by


the Engineer.

Rates are deemed to include for any construction and removal of ramps as
required by the contractor for excavations works.

Controling and Monitoring the Verticality and Alignment of Piles

The Contractor shall submit a detailed method statement and procedures


for controlling and monitoring the verticality and alignment of piles for the
Engineer's approval before commencement of pile installation. During the
pile installation, tolerance for verticality of each pile shall be frequently
checked as directed by the Engineer. In case the deviation exceeding the
allowable tolerance, the Contractor shall propose method of rectification for
the Engineer's approval prior to further pile installation.

Where the ground conditions differ from those stipulated in the design,
appropriate action should be taken in agreement with the engineer.

For details and proposed method of construction of piles Refer to

D30 PILING (Cont.)

General Notes Cont.:

The Concrete for piles shall:


Have a high resistance against segregation be of high plasticity and good
cohesioness have good flowability have the ability to self compact be
sufficiently for the duration of the placement procedure, including the
removal of any temporary casings Concrete mixes for piling are to be
tested for cube crushing, workability and other charateristics as stipulated
in the specifications prior to any concreting of piles. These mixes have to
be approved by the engineer.

Concreting is to be carried out by the use of a tremie pipe - the tremie pipe
including all its joints, shall be water tight - concrete pumping should be
carried out through the tremie pipe. Pumping hose is to be placed in the
tremie.

Initial Concrete shall be poured directly from Top of Pile, so as to create a


bell formation as in drawings. Amount to be poured in such way, shall be as
directed by Architect in change

Submerged concrete shall be compacted by internal vibration. Suitably


qualified and experienced person shall be in charge of the execution of the
work.

Spacers around the reinforcement cage shall be placed at intervals of not


more than 3.0m and at least three in number should be placed at each
level.
