7.1 SURVEYING

7.1.1 Survey Engineer shall establish the lines and levels.

7.1.2 The surveyor shall check that the preceding activities have been approved
7.1.3 All elevation and coordinates values shall be indicated in the drawings or other
documents, unless otherwise stated.

7.2 PERMITTING

7.2.1 Prior to start of any activity, necessary permits should first be accomplished
according to scope of work that are to be conducted.

7.3 INITIAL PLAN

7.3.1 Prior to start of work, place barricades to set boundaries of work and ensuring safe
working area.
7.3.2 Prepare the necessary traffic management plan reflecting the flow of traffic to and
from respective areas.
7.3.3 The sequence of excavation should be carefully planned for heavy machines and
trucks to move easily and safely.
7.3.4 Disposal area shall be located in compliance with site working area.

7.3.5 Access roads shall be provided on strategic sides of the excavation area (North &
East Side). The access road should have a width of 7m. Unsuitable/excess
materials will be disposed outside the 5km. radius.
7.3.6 First to excavate is MF6 where condensate pit is located. MF2 @ Grid AA-AB/A3-A4
will follow. After condensate pit backfilling and compaction is done, STG foundation
@ Grid AB-AD/A2-A6, excavation will proceed together with elevation +1.5m. As
excavation and backfilling is in progress elevation +0.3 will follow and lastly
elevation +2.5m will take place.

7.4 GENERAL EARTHWORK

7.4.1 Excavation less than 1.5 meters deep

7.4.1.1 Excavation approved by AES for backfill shall be stockpiled at allocation
adjacent to the to the construction site as directed by VPCI.
7.4.1.2 Any unsuitable material excavated such as clay or boulders, etc. shall be
removed and properly disposed.
7.4.1.3 All surplus backfill material and unapproved materials shall be transported
off the construction site to a location as designated by VPCI.
7.4.1.4 Sub-contractor shall notify and remove any obstructions encountered
during the excavation.
7.4.1.5 Remove all or any loose material before commencement of any
construction work. GTC shall assume full responsibility for maintaining the
stability of all excavated faces until final acceptance of the foundation
works.
7.4.1.6 If unsuitable soil is encountered at a specified excavation depth, GTC shall
report the condition to VENTANAS to obtain directions for corrective action
before proceeding with the works.
7.4.1.7 Excavation shall be carefully performed not to disturb the bottom of
adjacent foundations.
7.4.1.8 All excavated bottom foundation, bottom trenches and underground lay
pipe shall be compacted or tamped by a jumping jack, rammer or roller
compactor. Over excavation adjacent to the existing foundation must be
avoided, wherever there is over excavation and backfilling of suitable
engineered fill is made on site, compaction test is required.

7.4.2 Excavation exceeding 1.5m deep

7.4.2.1 Excavation exceeding 1.5m in depth have been known to collapse

7.4.2.2 Protection of personnel in excavation with such depth should be prioritized
by providing appropriate signage.
7.4.2.3 Excavation equal to or greater than 1.5m should be cut back to a safe
slope at least 15 %.
7.4.2.4 Provide burlap if deemed necessary. This will remain it stable under
anticipated conditions of work and weather.

7.4.3 Safe Slopes in Excavations

7.4.3.1 Unless the stability of the face is determined by an engineer or other

qualified professional, the safe slope should not exceed:
 Masinloc Power Plant Expansion Project Doc. No 0-WD890 - CA731 - 00306
Work Procedure for STG, STB Rev. No. A
and CCB Excavation Work Page 8 of 11

7.1.3.1.1 1m vertical: 1m horizontal or the angle of repose, whichever is

flatter for soils above the water table.
7.1.3.1.2 1m vertical: 1.5m horizontal or the angle of repose, whichever
is flatter, for saturated or submerged soils, or for excavations
greater than 3m depth.
7.1.3.1.3 Where the slope of an excavation is benched, the maximum
height between benches should not exceed 1.5m, with the
exception of the bench adjacent to the work area, which should
not exceed 1m overall, the total width of the benched
excavation should not less than required in 1 & 2 above.

7.4.4 Sloping Excavation/Trimming

7.4.4.1 Sloping scaling begins at the top of the slope and proceeds down the
slope. Removes or stabilized material on the slope face that is loose,
hanging or creating dangerous situation.

7.4.5 Backfilling / Compaction

7.4.5.1 Backfilled materials shall be free from roots, debris, rock fragments. Prior
to backfilling all backfilled materials shall be inspected and approved by
AES.
7.4.5.2 Survey referencing and marking.
7.4.5.3 Joint inspection will be requested and carried out prior to commencement
of 1st layer backfilling.
7.4.5.4 Backfilling material will be laid and compacted at 300 mm depth for 1st
layer at the bottom of foundation.
7.4.5.5 FDT will be conducted for the 1st layer to comply with project technical
specification requirement for backfilling.
7.4.5.6 Another layer of backfill materials will be laid out above 1 st layer and to be
compacted at 300mm depth.
7.4.5.7 Succeeding layers will be prepared and compacted at 300 mm thickness
until top level providing open space for each layer for FDT.
7.4.5.8 Each layer must be tested for compaction and shall pass a degree of
95%min.compaction of the Maximum Dry Density of soil. Any layer found
not satisfying the required density, a rework shall be done to satisfy the
required density.
