2. PREPARATION ON SITE
a. CLEANING SITE AND LEVELLING
- Before starting any work on site, cleaning of land, cutting unwanted trees/bushes should
be carried out with permission from T.M.C. / B.M.C. with specialised agencies for taking
all required Measurements correctly, for demarcation and layout.
- If large trees are obstructing proposed buildings or structures then necessary written
permission from corporation authority should be obtained for transplanting / cutting the
trees.
(Application to do well in advance as it requires times to get permission.)
- If any undulations or soil heaps are in the premises, these should be levelled by JCB.

b. BOUNDARIES MARKING
- Before starting any work on site, Engineer In charge should demand for security services
of reputed company.
- A shed using G.I. sheet to be erected near the entrance of project or at convenient area
within site.
- This shed can be used for storing and stacking of all initial required tools, reports, and
office files.
- Boundary marking should be done by using stones fixed in concrete on each corner/every
turning point after specific distance.
- This stone should be painted in red oil paint. While doing this initial marking, reference
should be taken from existing boundary stones, some trees on boundaries, nallah bunds,
and initial enquiries with local people, etc.
- While doing this initial boundary marking on sites reaction of adjacent plot owners should
also be judged.
- Any minor disputes regarding measurement should be settled with consent from the
directors.
- A rough sketch of fixed boundaries to be prepared.
- Permanent boundary marking work should be started by doing Total station survey.
c. DEMARCATION BY TOTAL STATION SURVEY
- Total station survey for actual demarcation should be done with reference to existing
boundaries.
- While doing this survey, all existing structures such as existing well, bore well, nearby
nallah, electric poles, high-tension line, trees, etc., should be shown on drawing.
- Demarcation drawing should be prepared in the office, which will be based on the field
survey.
- Comparisons of T.L.R.'s demarcation and architects drawings should be done by super
imposing the drawings.
- Major discrepancies should be reported to H. O.
- Architects will visit, inspect site and then finalize the revised demarcation.
- Based on this revised final demarked drawing, architect will prepare final layout of
buildings.
d. CONTOUR SURVEY
- Contour survey means to know the actual level i.e. ups and downs of the plot.
- Fix the permanent benchmark with reference to main road and approach road on the
existing main drainage chambers top, etc.
Page 5 of 129
Document Name: Rev

- Engineer & Architect has to decide the grid interval 3 meter or 5 meter, as per the plot
condition.
- Grid interval depends on the plot conditions e.g. for plain ground, for sloping ground, for
steep ground, hilly areas.
- Then from collected data i.e. levels and interval distance. Surveyor will prepare the
contour map.
e. Importance of contour map -
- For quantity survey and estimation.

- Estimation for cutting and filling.
- To decide the height of compound wall.
- Fixing of plinth levels of all buildings, development work like drainage, nala, rain waters,
disposals, water lines, etc.
- For estimation of whole project.
PLANNING FOR APPROACH ROADS AND TEMPORARY STRUCTURES / WATER STORAGE AND
OTHER STRUCTURES
Approach roads and internal roads are very important for vehicular transport.
- Approach roadside boundaries should be marked with lime powder or guard stones and
internal roads side margin/boundaries should be marked with lime powder or steel rods.
- Internal road distribution should be same as per sanctioned layout plan.
- In rainy season, if there is possibility of formation and accumulation of mud on road, it is
very important to construct W.B.M. roads in earlier seasons only.
- So that it cannot disturb work activities and material can be stocked undisturbed.
- On approach road as well as on the main road hoardings as well as way to boards, tree
guards with plants should be provided.
- Planning of approach road and other structures should be done in advance as per
sanctioned buildings layout so that no structure / road should obstruct proposed
buildings.
- Planning for the location of material hoist & passenger hoist.
- Consider the material stacking space for each building with free vehicular movement
without obstructing any temporary structures.
- This is very important otherwise what is normally observed shifting of temporary sheds
from one place to another to accommodate proposed permanent structures. This may
lead to considerable increase in cost due to improper advance planning.

3. WATCHMAN CABIN
- Location nearest to main gate, facing the road direction from where more vehicular flow
is expected.
4. SITE OFFICE AND STORE
- Temporary office and stores at site will remain as it is till completion of the project means
that should not be demolished earlier
- Processing & Non Processing area need to confirm by Architects & sanctioned by
management.
5. WATER ARRANGEMENT
- If sufficient water from open Well Corporation or other authorities is not available then
taking bore well is advisable.
- If there is a shortage or non-availability of water then it is necessary to get the tropical
geological
- survey to find out the maximum ground water table for bore well purposes.
- Number of bore wells depends upon the requirement of water for the completion of the
project. (asper VASTU, N-E corner should select. Bore should not disturb bldg. structure.)
- After completion of the bore well, pump installation with temporary GI / PVC line is to be
laid up to the central water storage tank.
- Water should be sent for testing to find out various impurities, PH value, so as to use the
potable water for construction.
- Engineer should be aware about the pump, which depends on horizontal and vertical
growth of the project.
- Another pump should be installed over the temporary water storage tank so that we can
use the water for construction curing purposes.
- Selection of pump capacity should be done in such a way that same pump could be
shifted to other project constructional activities.
- Minimum one water outlet with gate valve should be provided in front of each building
for temporary water arrangement for proper curing and construction activity.
- Also water tank or UG Tanks as per dwg should construct to store water for construction
use in case of bore failure. One line of bore must be also found various impurities and
suitability for construction.

6. ELECTRICITY ARRANGEMENT
- For this normally a three-phase meter is required for operating pumps, polishing
machines etc.
- The following documents should be submitted to the Electricity Board for getting new
connection
a) Application on A-1 form, b) 7/12 Abstract.
c) Copy of commencement certificate from Municipal Corporation. d) Copy of power of
attorney. e) Copy of sanctioned drawings from the corporation. f) Property tax receipt.
- The above procedure should be followed up with Electricity Board by concerned electrical
contractor.
- The assistant Engineer or Sub Engineer of the service connection department then will
visit the site for study of location for supply point.
- As per Electricity Board rules, meter location should be nearest to the point of supply.
- A meter room should be construct as per convenient.
7. COMPOUND WALL / FENCING / SECURITY FENCING
- It is important to construct the compound wall at the beginning of the project; this
improves the overall security of the project. The construction of other structures like
watchman’s cabin, store,site offices, godowns, steel yards, etc.
- The compound wall boundary must be check as per T.L.R. & get approve from licence
dept.
- This activity can give ideas to the prospective customers and visitors
- For construction of the compound wall gate etc. proper drawing should be issued by the
Architect.
- After approval of this drawing the actual construction of compound wall begins.
- Provision for chain link fencing over M.S. angle should be made for security purposes.
8. GATE
- Only one entrance to the project or plot should be maintained to avoid theft, outgoing or
incoming materials, and site staff timing restrictions and to control the visitors or
customers entries to the site.
- If the main gate is not fixed at least a 'stop and start pole' should be used and which the
watchman will control.
- Once the compound wall and gate is complete, tree plantation should be done along the
fencing.
- This will result in a favourable impression in a perspective client's mind.

9. CHECKING OF LAYOUT WITH ACTUAL BOUNDARIES
- Before starting main building line out, the site engineer must confirm the actual
boundaries and check set back margins simultaneously in co ordination with Architect.
- Temporary makings of external building corners and other structures like under ground
water tank, swimming tank, etc. should be done with steel rods fixed with cement
concrete 15 cm above ground and painted with white oil paint.
- Cross check this marking with set back from actual plot boundaries.
- At this stage total buildings should be properly shown on layout with their set back as per
the given rule.
- This layout drawing should be approved by the architect and confirmed by the resident
architect.
- While checking this layout, mark open spaces and road portion on ground as per
approved layout drawings.
10. STORE/GODOWNS
- Store should be centrally located near all buildings and not obstruct any vehicular
movement as well as proposed permanent structure. Flooring of cement godown should
be raised 45 cm from existing ground level with smooth I.P.S. floor finishing.
- This being a temporary structure can be made from G.I. sheets or brick masonry to avoid
leakage in monsoon.
- It should be 100% water proof with two openings (so that old cement can be used first)
and perfect security.
- It should have sufficient capacity of storage.
- Sufficient light provision must be providing.
- Stock name board showing W M Y for each batch of material should be placed.
11. WATCHMAN TOWER
- Larger area can be under vision if one is at the highest point.

- Any trespassers can be easily located from higher point.
- It is therefore advisable for larger projects to have the watchman tower, centrally located
and an about 15 to 20 m above the ground level.
- Floodlights fitted at this tower are more advantageous from security point of view.
- Location of flood light should be such that it should not get disturb to other residence in
night.
- Proper control on switches for on & off operation should be maintained.

horizontal control survey, vertical control survey and survey the whole site using cross
section in every 10 meters.
- Beginning Point (BP), Intersection Point (IP) and Ending Point (EP) will be set out of each
cross section line from the nearby control point.
- Establishment of Horizontal and Vertical Controls All survey works shall be reference to
the existing survey control points within the project site. In cases where additional control
points are needed, traverse and leveling surveys shall be done.
- All visible features will be measured using ground measurement points for every feature
that needs to be shot. These points will be spread throughout the project area in
sufficient number to fully cover all features and the entire ground, and to ensure accurate
computation of the contour lines and elevations.
- Also, the gathered data shall be the basis for the earthworks (cut and fill) computations.
All man-made structures such as buildings, roads, culverts, drainages, bridges, walkways,

- All other elements on the ground, such as plantations, trees (with a minimum diameter),
rivers, streams, etc. will also be included the measurements.
- Road Layout Horizontal road layouts shall be done at 10 meter interval (straight) and 5
meter interval (curves). Toe and embankment limit shall also be marked at the same
interval.
- Survey stakes shall be in the form of woods or rebars (preferably 10mm diameter).
Elevations shall be marked with the use of masking tapes to determine the required
elevations.
Survey control
Raft Foundation to Ground Level
- For the excavation, raft foundation and initial levels of construction, position and height
will be established by direct measurement from the permanent marks and temporary
control points established at each level. As soon as the slab is completed at each level
then the permanent grid points and grid lines will be set out.
Ground Level to Stilt Level
- At Ground level at least 4 permanent survey marks will be established within the
‘footprint’ of each tower. Block outs (150mm by 150mm) will be set in each slab vertically
above the survey marks so that the control can be transferred directly to each level above
using optical plumbing with the precision optical plumb.
- As soon as each section of the floor slab is cast, permanent grid points and grid lines will
be set out.
Vertical Control
- Traditional leveling techniques will be used to establish marks on the foundation slab.
- From the foundation slab to the top of the building the datum point for each floor will be
set by measurement from the floor below; traditional levelling can be used but where
more than one change point is required an alternative method will be used.
- The instruments are moved and a second set of readings taken. The mean value is used to
determine the datum at the upper level. This procedure will give an accuracy of ± 1mm
and as the errors are not cumulative over 10 or more floors.
Transfer of datum
Line and level datum will be progressively transference up the building at every 10–12
floors and survey points closed off behind.
As built surveys
1. As built surveys will be carried out as follows:
2. Lift shaft surveys
3. Core Wall verticality surveys
4. Column and shear wall position & verticality
5. Precast setting out / Edge of slab surveys
6. Slab level surveys

On site survey procedures
Primary survey control
- The 4 permanent marks established surrounding the site are considered to be the Primary
points and all precise work must be connected to these marks by closed traverse and/or
level run.
Secondary control
- Marks established by closed traverse and/or level run within or adjoining the structure
are considered secondary control and are used to establish control at all other levels of
the building. The traverse or level run miss-close must always be adjusted before the
secondary marks are used for the set out of further points.
Horizontal Position
- Horizontal control at another level is obtained by setting the precise optical plummet on
each secondary control mark and sighting vertically through the survey block-out, using
the angle eyepiece to mark a point / line over the block-out at the target floor.
- Two observations (180 deg. apart) are made to the target and the mid position adopted.
- The instrument is then transferred to the target level and observations made to the other
3 or 4 secondary control points.
- An initial accuracy of better than 1:10,000 should be achieved and a ‘best-fit’ solution is
the adopted for the marks and major grid points and grid lines are then set out.
Vertical Position
- Vertical datum for a new level is, in all cases, established directly from the level below.
- A suspended, tensioned tape should be used whenever the level transfer involves more
than one change point by traditional means.
- The level run must be closed and the miss-close must not exceed 2mm. If greater than
2mm – re-survey!
- When using the suspended, tensioned, tape the same tape and the same tension (about
3-4 Kg) must be used at all times.
- Two sets of readings must be taken and again the difference in the two vertical distances
must not exceed 2mm.
Core wall control
- Two different systems shall be used on site with some formwork being 3 or 4 levels above
the current slab and some formwork being on the slab and only rising to the next level.
- Control will be set out on the current slab and plumbed to the formwork system using the
laser plummet or the optical plummet.
- The shutter positions are then checked / set out from these marks. The verticality of lift
core walls shall be checked every floor, while form work moving up. But frequency of
results shall be generated and recorded every 5 floors including two diagonally opposite
corners of lift shafts.
- All shafts verticality will be monitored from the external wall co-ordinate results with the
thickness of wall.
Page 12 of 129
Document Name: Rev

Column control
- Three offset points or two lines are to be marked on the current slab defining the base of
the column.
Slab edge
- Survey points set out on the slab below each span are plumbed to the next level to
control the edge of slab form. Grid lines shall be established top of the slab prior to
casting and edges shall be marked and confirmed by representative of sub-contractors
precast department. Once slab been cast all grid lines to be marked by surveyor.
Accuracy
- At all times the aim is to achieve an accuracy of 5mm in relation to the secondary survey
control in setting the formwork at any one level. This applies to both horizontal and
vertical position.

1. Materials:
All Materials should be approved before commencement of work. Source and make shall be
approved for all materials.
 Course Aggregate
 Screenings (filler material)
 Binding Material

Roller, Mixing Machine, Spreader, Mud Pan,
4. PROCEDURE:
a. Course Aggregate :
- Unlike other course aggregates it consist of mixture of hard and durable crushed
aggregates and broken stones. The aggregates used for each layer of the WBM road
construction should be properly graded. Below table shows the standard gradation of the
aggregates that can be adopted.
- The course aggregates used in the construction of WBM road should hold the following
properties.
o It should be hard and durable.
o The course aggregate should be free from flaky and elongated particles.
o The course aggregate should be in acceptable shape and size.
- Physical requirements of course aggregates required for construction of WBM road in

terms of test values for different pavement layers is given below.
b. Screenings :
- The material which is used up to fill up the excess voids present in the compacted layer of
course aggregate is called as screenings.
- Screening material is nothing but the aggregates of smaller size than the course
aggregates. Below table shows the standard grading required of screening for
construction of WBM road.
- In order to reduce the overall cost of WBM road, IRC has recommended to use non-plastic
materials such as kankar nodules, murum or gravel.
Page 14 of 129
Document Name: Rev


c. Binding Material :
- Binding material which is going to be used for the construction of WBM road should be
properly approved by engineer and it should have plasticity index value less than 6.
- Generally the binding materials are not required if screenings used for the construction of
WBM road is murum or gravel as they have crushable property.
Construction Procedure of WBM Road.

I. Preparation of Foundation for WBM Road :
- The subgrade or base course is properly prepared for the required grade and camber of
WBM road. The potholes and the depressions on the surface of the road are properly
filled up and compacted.
II. Provision for Lateral Confinement :

- Before laying of aggregates the shoulders having thickness as that of compacted WBM
layer should be constructed. They should be constructed with proper quality of murum or
earth.
- The main purpose of constructing shoulders is that the road surface to be constructed
retain in between them and it becomes easy for further laying of course aggregates.
III. Spreading of Course Aggregates :

- The course aggregates are uniformly spread on the prepared base after the construction
of the shoulders. Total number of layers and thickness of WBM road depends upon the
details of design pavement.
- In general for ordinary roads, single layer of compacted thickness 75 mm may be
sufficient. For special roads, 2 layers of 150 mm each compacted thickness may be
provided.
- If the course aggregate is used of number 1 grade as shown in above course aggregate
grading table then it is compacted to thickness of 100 mm.
IV. Rolling Operation :

- Rolling operation is carried out for compacting the course aggregates. Generally it is done
with the help of 3- wheeled power rollers weighing 6-10 tonnes or with the help of
vibratory rollers.
- Skilled operators should be used for driving the rollers as the fault rolling operations
causes formation of corrugations, unequal finish of road surface, wearing of road in few
months of construction.
Page 15 of 129
Document Name: Rev

V. Application of Screenings :
- After the rolling operation is properly finished screenings is applied to properly fill the
voids remained after the compaction of aggregates. The screening may be applied in 3 or
more layers as per the site conditions.
- After uniformly spreading of screening compaction is carried out with the help of dry
rollers for each layer of screenings. After compaction brooming of the each layer should
be properly done to remove the uncompacted screening material.
VI. Sprinkling of Water and Grouting :

- After the application of screening the road surface is properly sprinkled with plenty of
water. After the water is sprinkled brooming is done to sweep the wet screening properly
into the voids.
- Rolling operation is further carried out for proper compaction. If the voids are still visible
then additional screenings can also be applied and properly compacted.
VII. Application of Binding Material :

- Same procedure is used for the application of binding material as that of screenings. Here
after each layer water is sprinkled and rolling operation is carried out.
- At the time of rolling operation the wheels of the roller should be constantly watered so
as to washout the binding material that gets stuck to the wheels of the rollers.
VIII. Setting and Drying of Surface :

- After the final rolling operation the road is allowed to cure or set over-night. The next day
if the depressions or voids are visible then again sufficient amount of screenings or
binding materials can be used and compaction is done.
IX. Preparation of Shoulders :

- At the time of Curing of road, shoulders are constructed alongside by filling earth to
specified cross slope. They are properly compacted.
X. Open for Traffic :

- After proper drying and without any depressions, the road is then made upon for traffic.
For few days the traffic should be well distributed over full width of road by placing
obstacles longitudinally in the form of drums, barricade etc.
Page 16 of 129
Document Name: Rev

Maintenance of WBM Road :

- Whenever the potholes and ruts occur on the road by the period of time, they should be
be filled with adequate materials and proper compacting should be done.
- The corrugations occured on the roads should be removed by means of dragging. If not
could make the condition worse.
- Broken materials of the roads should be properly restored by fresh materials.
- The surface of the road should be renewed in 2-5 years or based according to the traffic
volume.
- The loose aggregates starts coming on the top of the surface of the road, they should be
removed and lavelled surface should be added by fresh binding material and it should be
properly watered and compacted.

monitored by measuring with weighted tape after each skip of concrete is placed.
- The tremie pipe can then be extracted piece by piece as the concreting goes on. And
Check concrete level for lumping upon partially withdrawing the casing (top up if
needed).While withdrawal of tremie pipe care should be taken that bottom of the tremie
pipe should be always inside the concrete of pile shaft. One time of pouring of concrete
shall not exceed the 25% of pile length.
- The temporary casing can either be extracted simultaneously by the vibrator in course of
concreting, or after completion of concreting. A head of about 2 m(minimum) is always

- Start the engine and slowly increase the throttle.
- Engage or turn winch handles simultaneously to keep the screed even.
- DO NOT adjust the throttle on the engine to slow down or speed up the hydraulic
winches, use the flow controls instead.
- NEVER let the concrete build up on the front blade, this causes the screed to be stressed
and is strenuous on the operators controlling the manual winches. The concrete should
not go above the bolts attaching the blades. If this happens, stop the screed and let the
vibration do its job.
- If the concrete is not being added at the appropriate rate, slow the screed down to
compensate.
- The speed at which the screed should be operated depends on the slump of the concrete.
Pay close attention to the aggregates, slump and concrete modifying agents so that can
compensate for them. REMINDER! – DO NOT OVER – VIBRATE THE CONCRETE
- Non Color Floor Hardener of approved make @ 3.5 KG/Sq.mt shall be sprinkled over
green concrete .1/3 rd of dry shake shall be broad-casted in first pass and same is floated

4. Work Procedure:
Given below are method statements for general plumbing installations. This may need to be
modified in specific cases depending on the nature of the installations.
Page 115 of 129

Document Name: Rev

a. Excavation of Trenches :
- Mark layout of the pipeline and obtain approval from the DOSTI representative. Barricade
sides of trenches to be excavated.
- Start excavation works (Using manual labour or an excavator machine). Ensure that the
width does not exceed the maximum specified.
- Use a leveling instrument to make depth markings all along the length of the excavation.
In certain situations, it may not be practical to use a leveling instrument in a plumbing or
sewerage installation. In such cases, a tube level could be used.
- Allow for deeper excavations to accommodate the PCC base of inspection chambers and
at collars/joints of pipes.
- Additional care should be exercised for excavations deeper than 1.5m, especially in loose
soils. Arrangements should be made for shoring the sides of trenches.
- Care should be taken that excess excavations are always avoided. If in doubt, excavate
less and take out the extra depth in the next stage. Filled in soil invariably settles taking
the pipe with it, disturbing alignments.
- Ensure that excavated earth is always stored away from the edge of the trench.
b. External piping – Water supply
- Mark pipe lines in ground according to working drawing and provide barricading.
- Excavate trenches to required depths as per working drawings.
- Prepare base of trench for laying pipes, as per technical specifications.
- Lay the pipes on the prepared base and support them at adequate intervals.

- Test the pipes for leaks under pressure in the presence of DOSTI representative and
maintain a ‘test certificate’ duly signed by the representatives of the client and
contractor.
- Coat the pipes with the specified anti-corrosive treatment (if metal pipes are used).
- Provide encasement with sand/granular material, if specified.
- Backfill trenches in layers including compaction.
c. External piping- Sewerage & Storm Water
- Mark pipe lines in ground according to working drawings.
- Excavate trenches to required depths with proper barricading.
- Prepare base for laying pipes.
- Lay pipes according to specified gradient.
- Perform hydraulic/smoke test and obtain certification form DOSTI representative.
- Provide encasement with concrete / sand/ granular material, as specified.
- Backfill trenches in layers including compaction.

d. Shaft Piping
- Ensure all the civil works activities are completed before start of the shaft piping.
- Mark for pipes on the plastered shaft walls according to details in the working drawings.
Ensure that the plastering is completed as it will be almost impossible to plaster walls
after the pipes are in place.
- Fix brackets as per details shown on the working drawings. A clear gap of 25 to 50mm
shall be maintained between pipe and wall surface. The brackets should be made of non-
corrosive material.
- Clamp pipe assemblies on to the brackets. Make sure the pipes are in ‘line’ (horizontal
runs) or in ‘plumb’ (vertical stacks). Where expansion / contraction will be a concern,
ensure that pipes are not rigidly held to brackets.
- Make cut-outs on the shaft walls for branch pipes at locations shown on the drawings.
- Insert sleeves wherever required. Ensure that annular space in sleeves is not more than
25mm. Annular space shall be filled with yarn and flexible sealant after installation of pipe
through the sleeve.
- Provide branches on the pipe assembly for connections to internal pipework. Provide
isolating valves on water supply pipes at locations shown on working drawings; at easily
reachable heights.
- Test the pipes for leaks under specified pressure for the specified duration.
- Tests must be witnessed and approved by Dosti’s representative.
- If Required, Paint the pipes as per approved colour code and provide identification labels
where called for.
- Take measurement of pipes installed. A representative of Dosti must be present and
should acknowledge the records.

- Terminate soil, waste and vent pipes with vent cowls at specified heights above terrace
level. Ensure that vent cowls are not terminated within one meter (horizontally and
vertically) from any window openings. Terminate water supply risers with automotive air
vents (with isolating valves) and down pipes with drain plug/drain valve – all as per
drawings. Ensure that water supply pipework would be self-venting and self-draining.
- Connect the soil stack(s) to inspection chamber(s) at ground level.
- Connect waste stacks(s) to the gully trap(s) at ground level. Connect the gully trap(s) to
the inspection chamber(s).
e. Pipes in Wall Chases
- Make sure that walls are at least rough-plastered and finish levels are marked by the civil
contractor. If proper cladding levels are not marked, the pipes could be too deep or too
shallow inside. Pipes deep in the wall will require use of extension nipples at faucets.
- Mark pipe lines on walls as shown on the working drawing.
Page 117 of 129

Document Name: Rev

- Chase the walls to required depth using a chasing machine. Chase before Water-proofing
work.

used). Ensure that the tested pipe joints are not disturbed.
- Insulate hot water pipes with the specified material.
- Water pressure test to be witnessed by the Dosti Representative and shall keep record for
the same.
Note:
- Wherever possible, pipes may be pre-insulated/pre-wrapped, leaving joints, prior to
installation in the wall chase.
- Close the wall chases with cement mortar. If site conditions require a depth of more than
100mm to be chased, it is advisable to use a suitable mesh while plastering and ‘making
good’.
f. Pipes in sunken floor or suspended in ceiling (Drainage)

- Make sure that base water-proofing of toilet floors is completed.
- Locate and mark positions of soil and waste outlets. Make core drills where necessary.

- Assemble pipe headers and connect them to branches left in the shaft for this purpose.
Pre-fabricate wherever possible.
- Make sure that pipes are in proper slope and are supported adequately. Always ensure
that the spacing of supports is as per specifications. Ensure that floor traps are installed in
level (not tilted) so that the water seal is not diminished.
- Test the pipes and attend to leaks, if any.
- Supervise the filling of sunken floors by civil contractor so that the alignment and slope of
drainage pipes are not disturbed. It is in the plumbing contractor’s interest to ensure that
water proofing of the core drills is done and tested.
- Keep all open ends plugged to prevent ingress of construction debris.
