upon the prepared sub grade/sub-base/base in required quantities. In no case
should these be dumped in heaps directly on the area where these are to be laid
nor shall their hauling over a partly completed stretch be permitted.
The mix shall be spread either by a paver finisher or motor grader. For portions
where mechanical means cannot be used, manual means as approved by the
Engineer-in-charge shall be used. The motor grader shall be capable of spreading
the material uniformly all over the surface. Its blade shall have hydraulic control
suitable for initial adjustments and maintaining the same so as to achieve the
specified slope and grade.
The surface of the aggregate shall be carefully checked with templates and all high
or low spots remedied by removing or adding aggregate as may be required. The
layer shall be tested by depth blocks during construction. No segregation of larger
and fine particles shall be allowed. The aggregates as spread shall be of uniform
gradation with no pockets of fine materials.
1.3.5 Compaction:
After the mix has been laid to the required thickness, grade and crossfall/camber,
the same shall be uniformly compacted, to the full depth with suitable roller. If the
thickness of single compacted layer does not exceed 100 mm, a smooth wheel
roller of 80 to 100 kN weight shall be used. For a compacted single layer up to 200
Page -636
mm, the compaction shall be done with the help of vibratory roller of minimum
static weight of 80 to 100 KN or equivalent capacity roller. The speed of the roller
shall not exceed 5 km/h.
In portions having unidirectional cross fall / super elevation, rolling shall commence
from the lower edge and progress gradually towards the upper edge. Thereafter,
roller shall progress parallel to the centre line of the road, uniformly over-lapping
each preceding track by at least one-third width until the entire surface has been
rolled. Alternate trips of the roller shall be terminated in stops at least 1 m away
from any preceding stop.
In portions in camber, rolling shall begin at the edge with the roller running forward
and backward until the edges have been firmly compacted. The roller shall then
progress gradually towards the centre parallel to the centre line of the road
uniformly overlapping each of the preceding track by at least one-third width until
the entire surface has been rolled.
Along forms, kerbs, walls or other places not accessible to the roller, the mixture
shall be thoroughly compacted with mechanical tampers or a plate compactor.
Skin patching of an area without scarifying the surface to permit proper bonding of
the added material shall not be permitted.
Rolling shall not be done when the sub grade is soft or yielding or when it causes a
wave-like motion in the sub-base/base course or sub grade. If irregularities
develop during rolling which exceed 12 mm when tested with a 3m straight edge,
the surface shall be loosened and premixed material added or removed as required
before rolling again so as to achieve a uniform surface conforming to the desired
grade and crossfall. In no case the use of unmixed material shall be permitted to
make up the depressions.
Rolling shall be continued till the density achieved is at least 98 per cent of the
maximum dry density for the material as determined by the method outlined in IS :
2720 (Part – 8).
Page -637
After completion, the surface of any finished layer shall be well closed, free from
movement under compaction equipment or any compaction planes, ridges, cracks
and loose material. All loose, segregated or otherwise defective area shall be made
good to the full thickness of the layer and re-compacted.
After final compaction of wet mix macadam course, the pavement shall be allowed
to dry for 24 hours.
No vehicular traffic of any kind shall be allowed on the finished wet mix macadam
surface till it has dried and the wearing course laid.
1.5.1 Surface Regularity: The maximum allowable difference between pavement surface
and underside of a 3m straightedge when placed parallel with or at right angles to
the centre line of pavement at points decided by the Engineer-in-Charge shall not
be more exceed 8 mm.
1. 5.2 Surface level: The tolerance in surface level for wet mix macadam shall not vary
±10 mm for machine laid and ±15 mm for manually laid with reference to the
longitudinal and cross-profile of the pavement shown on the drawing or as directed
by Engineer-in-Charge.
The following quality control tests shall be carried out at frequencies specified
against each for Wet Mix Macadam.

1.5.4 The materials supplied and the works carried out by the Contractor shall conform
to the relevant technical specifications and as approved by the Engineer-in-Charge.
For ensuring the requisite quality of construction, the materials and works shall be
subjected to quality control tests, as described above. The testing frequencies set
forth are the desirable minimum and the Engineer-in-Charge shall have the full
authority to carry out tests as frequently as he may deem necessary to satisfy
himself that the materials and works comply with the appropriate specifications.
Test procedures for the various quality control tests are indicated in the respective
Section of these Specifications or for certain tests within this Section. Where no
specific testing procedure is mentioned, the tests shall be carried out as per the
prevalent accepted engineering practice to the directions of the Engineer-in-
Charge.
Where the surface irregularity of the wet mix macadam course exceeds the
permissible tolerances or where the course is otherwise defective due to sub grade
soil getting mixed with the aggregates, the full thickness of the layer shall be
scarified over the affected area, reshaped with added premixed material or
removed and replaced with fresh premixed material as applicable and recompacted
in accordance with Clause 1.3 above. The area treated in the aforesaid manner
shall not be less than 5 m long and 2 m wide. In no case, the depressions shall be
filled up with unmixed and ungraded material or fines.

4. Construction
4.1 General
The pace and programme of the dry lean concrete sub-base construction shall be
matching suitably with the programme of construction of the cement concrete
pavement over it. The dry lean concrete sub-base shall be overlaid with concrete
pavement only after 7 days after sub-base construction.
4.2.1 ‘A' system approach should be adopted for construction of pavement, and the
method statement for carrying out the work, detailing all the activities including
indication of time cycle, equipment, personnel etc. shall be got approved from the
Engineer-in- Charge before the commencement of work. The above shall include
the type, capacity and make of batching and mixing plant beside the hauling
arrangement and paving equipment. The capacity of paving equipment, batching
plant as well as all the ancillary equipment shall be adequate for a paving
requirement for day's work.
4.2.2 Batching and mixing of the concrete shall be done at a central batching and mixing
plant of capacity not less than 30 Cum/hr with automatic controls, located at
suitable place which takes into account sufficient space for stock piling of cement,
aggregate and stationary water tanks. This shall be however, situated at an
approved distance, duly considering the properties of the mix and transport
arrangements available with the contractor.
4.2.3 Proportioning of a material shall be done in the batching plant by weight, each type
of material being weighed separately. The cement from the bulk stock may be
weighed separately from the aggregates and water shall be measured by volume.
Wherever properly graded aggregate of uniform quality cannot be maintained as
envisaged in the mix design the grading of aggregates shall be controlled by
appropriate blending techniques. The capacity of batching and mixing plant shall be
at-least 25 higher than the proposed capacity for the laying/ paving equipment.
4.2.4 The batching plant shall include preferably four bins, weighing hoppers, and scales
for the fine aggregate and for each size of coarse aggregate. If cement is used in
bulk (after opening bags on platform) a separate scale for cement shall, be
included. The weighing hoppers shall be properly sealed and vented to preclude
dust during operation. Approved safety devices shall be provided and maintained
for the protection of all personnel engaged in plant operation, inspection and
testing. The batch plant shall be equipped with a suitable non-resettable batch
counter which will correctly indicate the number of batches proportioned.
Page -644
4.2.5 Bins preferably with four adequate separate compartments shall be provided in the
batching plant.
4.2.6 Batching plant shall be equipped to proportion aggregates and bulk cement by
means of automatic weighing devices using load cells. The weighing device shall
have an accuracy within + 1 in respect of quantity of cement and water and + 2 in
respect of aggregates and accuracy shall be checked at least once a month.
4.2.7 Mixers shall be pan type, reversible type with single or twin shaft or any other
mixer capable of combing the aggregates, cement and water into a thoroughly
mixed and uniform mass within the specified mixing period and of discharging the
mix without segregation. Each stationary mixer shall be equipped with an approved
timing device which will automatically lock the discharge lever when the drum has
been charged and release it at the end of the mixing period. The device shall be
equipped with a bell or other suitable warning device adjusted to give a clearly
audible signal each time the lock is released. In case of failure of the timing device
the mixer may be used for the balance of the day while it is being repaired provided
that each batch is mixed for 90 seconds or as per the manufacturer's
recommendation. The mixer shall be equipped with a suitable non-resettable batch
counter which shall correctly indicate the number of batches mixed.
4.2.8 The mixer shall be cleaned at suitable intervals. The pickup and throw over blades
in the drum or drums shall be repaired or replaced when they are worn down
20mm or more. The contractor shall have available at the job site a copy of the
manufacturers design, showing dimensions and arrangements of blades in
reference to original height and depth or provide permanent marks on blade to
show points of 20mm wear from new conditions. Drilled holes of 5 mm diameter
near each end and at mid point of each blade are recommended. Batching plant
shall be calibrated for the each ingredients upto its maximum quantity being used
in the mix at site in the beginning and thereafter at suitable interval not exceeding
one month.
4.2.9 Air-conditioned centralized computer control cabin shall be provided for automatic
operation of the equipment.
4.2.10
The design feature of the batching plant should be such that it can be shifted
quickly.
4.3 Transporting
Plant mix lean concrete shall be discharged immediately from the mixer,
transported directly to the point where it is to be laid and protected from the
weather by covering with ·tarpaulin during transit. The concrete shall be
Page -645
transported by tipping trucks, sufficient in number to ensure a continuous supply
of material -to feed the laying equipment to work at a uniform speed and in an
uninterrupted manner. The lead of the batching plant to the paving site shall be
such that the travel time available from mixing to paving as specified in Para 4.S.2
will be adhered to. Tipping truck shall not have old concrete sticking to it. Each
tipping truck shall be washed with water jet before next loading as and when
required after inspection.
4.4 Placing
Lean concrete shall be laid by a paver with electronic sensor on the sub base layer
or as specified. The equipment shall be capable of laying the material in one layer
in an even manner without segregation, so that after compaction the total
thickness is as specified. The paving machine shall have high amplitude tamping
bars to give good initial compaction to the sub-base. One day before placing of the
dry lean cement concrete sub-base the surface of the granular sub-base/drainage
layer shall be given a fine spray of water and rolled with a smooth wheeled roller.
The Dry Lean Concrete shall be laid in such a way that it is at least 750mm wider on
each side than the proposed width including paved shoulders of the concrete
pavement. The extra widening beyond 750 mm width on either side shall be
decided based on the specification of the paver, such that the crawler moves on
the Dry Lean Concrete and the cost of extra width beyond 750 mm on either side,
if any, shall be borne by the Contractor. For small works, the laying of concrete
with paver may be dispensed with. Where laying of PQC is done by manual
method, the extra 750 mm width Dry Lean Concrete on either side for crawler
movement is not required.
4.5 Compaction
4.5.1 The compaction shall be carried out immediately after the material is laid and
leveled. In order to ensure thorough compaction, rolling shall be continued on the
full width till there is no further visible movement under the roller and the surface
is well closed. The minimum dry density obtained shall be 98 per cent of that
achieved during trial length construction in accordance with clause 6. The densities
achieved at the edges i.e. 0.5 m from the edge shall not be less than 96 per cent of
that achieved during trial construction.
4.5.2 The spreading, compacting and finishing of the lean' concrete shall be carried out as
rapidly as possible and the operation shall be so arranged as to ensure that the
time between mixing of the first batch of concrete in any transverse section of the
layer and the final finishing of the same shall not exceed 90 minutes when the
concrete temperature is between 25 and 30 degree Celsius and 120 minutes if less
Page -646
than 25 degree Celsius. The period may be reviewed by Engineer-in-Charge in the
light of the results of the trial run but in no case shall it exceed 2 hours. Work shall
not proceed when the temperature of the concrete exceeds 30 degree Celsius. If
necessary, chilled water or addition of ice may be resorted to for bringing down the
temperature. It is desirable to stop concreting when the ambient temperature is
above 35 degree Celsius. After compaction has been completed, roller shall not
stand on the compacted surface for the duration of the curing period except during
commencement of next day's work near the location where work was terminated
the previous day.
4.5.4 A preliminary pass without vibration to bed the Dry Lean Concrete down shall be
given followed by the required number of passes to achieve the desired density
and, a final pass without vibration to remove roller with vibration marks and to
smoothen the surface.
Special care and attention shall be exercised during compaction near joints, kerbs,
channels, side forms and around gullies and manholes. In case adequate
compaction is not achieved by the roller at these points, use of plate vibrator shall
be made, if so directed by the Engineer-in-Charge.
4.5.5 The final lean concrete surface on completion of compaction shall be well closed,
free from movement under roller and free from ridges, low spots cracks, loose
material, pot holes, ruts or other defects. The final surface shall be inspected
immediately on completion and all loose, segregated or defective areas shall be
corrected by using fresh lean concrete material laid and compacted. For repairing
honeycombed/hungry surface, concrete with aggregate of size 10 mm and below
shall be spread and compacted as per specification. It is necessary to check the
level of the rolled surface for compliance. Any level/thickness deficiency shall be
corrected after applying concrete with aggregate of size 10 mm and below after
roughening the surface. Strength test shall be carried out, and if deficiency in
strength is noticed, at least three (evenly spread) cores of minimum 100 mm dia.
per 5000 sqm shall be cut to check deficiency in strength. The holes resulting from
cores shall be restored by filling with concrete of the specified strength and
compacted by adequate rodding.
Page -647
4.5.6 Segregation of concrete in the tipping truck shall be controlled by moving the
dumper back and forth while discharging the mix into the same or by any
appropriate means. Paving operation shall be such that the mix does not segregate.
4.6 Joints
Longitudinal joint in Dry Lean Concrete shall be staggered by 300-400 mm from the
longitudinal joint of concrete pavement.
At longitudinal or transverse construction joints, unless vertical forms are used, the
edge of compacted material shall be cut back to a vertical plane where the correct
thickness of the properly compacted material has been obtained.
4.7 Curing
After two to three hours i.e. when concrete has started setting /hardening, the
exposed surfaces shall be kept damp with moist gunny bags, sand or any other
material approved by the Engineer-in-Charge or by sprinkling water. 24 hours after
compaction, the exposed surface shall be kept continuously in damp or wet
condition by ponding or by covering with a layer of sacking, canvas, hessian or
similar materials and kept constantly wet for at least 7 days from the date of laying
where Ordinary Portland Cement is used and this period of curing shall be 10 days
from the date of laying when Portland Pozzolana Cement /Portland slag cement is
used.
5. Trial Mixes
The contractor shall make trial mixes of dry lean concrete with moisture contents
like 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5 and 7.0 per cent using specified cement content and the
specified aggregate grading but without violating the requirement of aggregate-
cement ratio specified in clause 3.1. Optimum moisture and density shall be
established by preparing cubes with varying moisture contents. Compaction of the
mix shall be done in three layers with vibratory hammer fitted with a square or
rectangular foot (as in appendix 'A-1'). After establishing the optimum moisture, a
set of six cubes shall be cast at that optimum moisture for the determination of
compressive strength on third and the seventh day. Trial mixes shall be repeated if
the strength is not satisfactory either by increasing cement content. After the mix
Page -648
design is approved, the Contractor -shall construct a trial section in accordance with
clause 6.0.
6. Trial Length
6.1 After finalizing the mix design, trial length/area as decided by the Engineer-in-
Charge shall be prepared.
6.2 After the construction of the trial length, the in-situ density of the freshly laid
material shall be determined by sand replacement method. Three density holes
shall be made at locations equally spaced along a diagonal that bisects the trial
length average of these densities shall be determined. These main density holes
shall not be made in the strip 500 mm from the edges. The average density
obtained from the three samples collected shall be the reference density and is
considered as 100 per cent. The field density of regular work will be compared with
this reference density in accordance with clauses 4.5.1 and A.2 of Appendix 'A-1'.
6.3 The hardened concrete shall be cut over 3m width and reversed to inspect the
bottom surface for any segregation taking place. The trial length shall be
constructed after making necessary changes in the gradation of the mix to
eliminate segregation of the mix. The lower surface shall not have honey combing
and the aggregates shall not be held loosely at the edges.
6.4 The main work shall not start until the trial length has been approved by the
Engineer- in-Charge. After approval has been given, the materials, mix proportions,
moisture content, mixing, laying, compaction plant and construction procedures
shall not be changed without the approval of the Engineer-in-Charge.
7.2 Surface level: The tolerance in surface level for dry lean concrete shall not vary ±6
mm with reference to the longitudinal and cross-profile of the pavement shown on
the drawing or as directed by Engineer-in-Charge.
7.4 Quality control test on the materials and the work and minimum frequencies shall
be as under:
7 Cube strength of material IS: 516 One test per 1000 Sqm
mixed at site (3 samples) or part thereof
7.5 Rectification:
The defective length of the Dry Lean Concrete course shall be removed to full
depth and replaced with material conforming to the specification. Before relaying
the course, the disturbed subgrade or layer below shall be corrected by leveling,
watering and compacting.
8. Traffic
No heavy vehicles shall be permitted on the lean concrete sub-base after its
construction. Light vehicles if unavoidable may, however, be allowed after 7 days
of its construction with prior approval of the Engineer-in-Charge.

Appendix 'A-1'
Dry Lean Concrete
Samples of dry lean concrete for making cubes shall be taken from the uncompacted
material from different locations immediately before compaction at the rate of 3 samples
for each 1000 Sqm or part thereof laid each day. The sampling of mix shall be done from
the paving site.
Test cubes of 150mm size shall be made immediately from each mix sample.
Cubes shall be made in accordance with the methods described in 15:516 except that the
cubes shall be compacted by means of a vibratory hammer with the moulds placed on a
level and rigid base. The vibrating hammer shall be electric or pneumatic type fitted with a
square or rectangular foot having an area of between 7500 to 14000 Sqm. The compaction
shall be uniformly applied for 60 + 5 seconds with a downward force of between 300 N and
400 N on to each of the three layers of the lean concrete material placed into the mould.
The surface of each compacted layer shall be scarified before the next layer is added to
give key for the next layer. The final layer shall be finished flush with the top of the cube
mould.
The dry density of the laid material shall be determined from three density holes at
locations equally spaced along a diagonal that bisects each 2000 sqm or part thereof laid
each day and shall comply with the requirements as per Clause 4.5.1. This rate of testing
may be increased at the discretion of the Engineer in case of doubt or to determine the
extent of defective area in the even of non-compliance. Density holes at random may be
made to check the density at edges.
A.3 Thickness
Section 1.03 The average thickness of the sub-base layer as computed by the level data
of sub-base and subgrade or lower sub-base shall be as per the thickness specified in the
contract drawings. The thickness at any single location shall not be 8mm less than the
specified thickness. Such areas shall be corrected as stated in Clause 4.5.5. Areas which
cannot be repaired should be replaced over full width. The extent of deficient area should
be decided based on cores.

8.9 Construction by Fixed Form Paver: The fixed form paving train shall consist
of separate powered machines which spread compact and finish the concrete in
a continuous operation. The paving train moves on the rails fixed on both sides
of the pavement and compacting/finishing is simultaneously carried with the
equipment fitted with paving train which moves on the rails.
8.9.1 The concrete shall be discharged without segregation into a hopper of the
spreader which is equipped with means for controlling its rate of deposition on
to the sub-base. The spreader shall be operated to strike off concrete upto a
level requiring a small amount of cutting down by the distributor of the spreader.

AAI SPECIFICATIONS OF PQC FOR RIGID AIRFIELD PAVEMENTS (JULY 2020)
The distributor of spreader shall strike of the concrete to the surcharge adequate
to ensure that the vibratory compactor thoroughly compacts the layer. If
necessary poker vibrator shall be used adjacent to the side forms and edges of
the previously constructed slab.
8.9.2 The vibratory compactor shall be set to strike off the surface slightly high so
that it is cut down to the required level by the oscillating beam. The machine
shall be capable of being rapidly adjusted for changes in average and differential
surcharge necessitated by changes in slab thickness or cross fall. The final
finisher shall be capable to finish the surface to the required level and
smoothness as specified, care being taken to avoid bringing up of excessive
mortar to the surface by over working.
8.9.3 In the case of construction by fixed form paver, areas inaccessible to paving
equipment shall be constructed by manual/hand guided method. Areas in which
manual/hand guided methods of construction become indispensable shall be got
approved by the Engineer-in-Charge in writing in advance. Work shall be carried
out by skilled personnel as per methods approved by the Engineer-in-Charge.
For construction by hand guided method in the limited area, no cost adjustment
will be made.
8.10.1 Surface of the pavement shall be finished for the newly constructed concrete
pavements such that texturing equipment shall not tear or unduly roughen the
concrete surface during the operation. The texture shall be uniform in appearance
and approximately 2.0mm in depth. Brush shall be applied when the water sheen
has practically disappeared and the surface of concrete shall be brush-textured in
a direction at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the carriageway to get
satisfactory texture.
8.10.2 The texture depth shall be determined by the Sand Patch Test as described
below. This test shall be performed at least once for each day’s paving and
wherever the Engineer-In-Charge consider it necessary at times after construction
as under:

ii) A flat wooden disc 64mm diameter with a hard rubber disc, 1.5mm
thick, stuck to one face, the reverse face being provided with
a handle.
Method: The surface to be measured shall be dried, any extraneous mortar and
loose material removed and the surface swept clean using a wire brush both at
right angles and parallel to the carriageway. The cylindrical container shall be
filled with the sand, tapping the base 3 times to the surface on ensure compaction,
and striking off the sand level with the top of cylinder. The sand shall be poured
into a heap on the surface to be treated. The sand shall be spread over to
surface, working the disc with its face kept flat in a circular motion so that the
sand is spread into a circular patch with the surface depressions filled with
sand to the level of peaks. The diameter of the patch shall be measured to the
nearest 5mm. The texture depth of concrete surface shall be calculated from
31000/(D x D) mm where D is the diameter of patch in mm.
8.10.5 Texture depth shall not be less than a minimum required when measurement are
taken as given in table nor greater than a maximum average of 1.25 mm.

AAI SPECIFICATIONS OF PQC FOR RIGID AIRFIELD PAVEMENTS (JULY 2020)
The pavement shall be constructed using side forms. The acceptance criteria
regarding level, thickness, surface regularity, texture, finish strength
of concrete and all other quality control measures shall be the same as in
the case of machine laid down.
9.1.1 Concrete shall be deposited between the forms. Where a certain amount of
redistribution is necessary, it shall be done with shovels and not with rakes. The
concrete shall be compacted with the needle vibrator and vibrating screeds. Use
of vibrator near side forms is essential to eliminate honey combing. To effect
adequate compaction, the concrete shall be placed with appropriate surcharge
over the final slab thickness. The amount of surcharge will depend upon the
mode of placement of concrete and shall be determined by trial. In general, the
required surcharge is about 20% of the required slab thickness.
9.1.2 The concrete is to be deposited and spread to such a depth that when compacted
and finished, the slab thickness indicated will be obtained at all points and the
surface will not at any point be below the level specified for the finished
surface.
9.2.1 Compaction shall be carried out by electrically operated needle and screed
vibrators as stipulated hereafter. Needle vibrators should be used all over
the area for obtaining initial compaction of concrete. These should be of
diameter not less than 4.5 cm and if the vibrators are pneumatic, the pressure
must not be below 4 kg/sq.cm. If electrically operated, they should have a
minimum frequency of 3500 impulses per minute. Minimum number of petrol
driven vibrators as specified by the Engineer-in-Charge with minimum frequency
of 3500 impulses per minute shall be provided at each work head as a standby
arrangement. The screed and internal vibrator shall conform to I.S.:2505 and
I.S.: 2506 respectively.
9.2.2 There should be at least three needle vibrators working in one bay. A vibrating
screed consisting of a steel or timber section weighing not less than 15 kg per
meter with a tamping edge of not less than 7 cm width and having a vibrator
mounted thereon shall follow needle vibrators to obtain full compaction. The
face of the wooden tamping edge of the screed shall be lined with M.S.
plate rigidly fixed by means of counter sunk screws. Where screed vibrators
are used for compaction, a standby unit shall always be maintained ready for
use, should the other one go out of order. Where electrically driven vibrators are
employed, a stand by pneumatic unit shall be kept ready for use in case of power
Page - 671
AAI SPECIFICATIONS OF PQC FOR RIGID AIRFIELD PAVEMENTS (JULY 2020)
9.2.3 When using screed vibrator for compaction, it should not be dragged over
the concrete. During the initial passes, it shall be lifted to the adjacent forward
position in the steps. Subsequently, it shall be slowly slided over the surface
with its axis slightly tilted away from the direction of sliding and the
operation repeated until a close, dense surface is obtained.
9.2.4 Work men shall not be allowed to walk on freshly laid concrete. All
operations shall be carried out from suitable wooden bridges spanning the lane-
width.
9.2.5 IMPORTANT PRECAUTION: The vibration process shall be restricted just upto
the stage of appearance of water/ cement slurry on the surface. After
reaching this point vibration should be discontinued. It should be ensured that
no over-vibration is resorted, as it leads to formation of thin cement slurry
layer over the top surface which tends to peel off with passage of time by
movement of traffic.
9.3.1 Immediately after compacting of concrete and the construction of joints but
before the concrete has hardened and while the concrete is still in a plastic state,
the pavement surface shall be inspected for irregularities with a profile
checking template and minor irregularities and score marks shall be eliminated
by removing surplus material or by adding and working in freshly mixed concrete
if necessary by means of long handled floats and scraping straight edges followed
by further compaction and finishing. The long handled floats may be used to
smoothen and fill in open textured area in the pavement surface, but the final
finishing is to be done with scraping straight edges.
9.3.2 The scraping straight edges are to be 3 meters long with flexible handles
long enough to reach the other side of the slab when operated from one side of
the pavement. They are to be placed parallel to the forms at the side of the
pavements and worked backwards and forwards uniformly across the width of the
slab. After this operation has been completed and the surface has been brought
to the required finish, the straight edge is to be moved forward but not more than
half its length and the process repeated.
9.3.3 The straight edge testing and refloating is to continue until the entire surface:

9.4 BELTING
9.5 BROOMING
9.5.1 After belting and as soon as surplus water, if any, has risen to the surface,
the pavement shall be given a broom finish with an approved steel or fiber
broom not less than 45 cm wide. The broom shall be pulled gently over
the surface of the pavement from edge to edge. Adjacent strokes shall be
slightly overlapped. Brooming shall be perpendicular to the centre line of the
pavement and so executed that the corrugations formed will be uniform in
character and width and not more than 2.0 mm deep.
9.5.2 Brooming shall be completed before the concrete reaches such a stage that the
surface is likely to be torn or unduly roughened by the operation. The
broomed surface shall be free from porous or rough spots, irregularities,
depressions and small pockets such as may be caused by accidental
disturbing of particle of coarse aggregates embodied near the surface.
The rate of the contractor for the item of quality controlled concrete pavement
includes the provision for belting and brooming operations and nothing
extra shall be paid on this account.
9.6 EDGING
After belting/ brooming has been completed but before the initial setting
of concrete, the edges of the slab shall be carefully finished with an
edging tool of 6 mm radius, and the pavement edges shall be left
smooth and true to line.
As soon as the side forms are removed, any minor honey combed areas
Page - 673
AAI SPECIFICATIONS OF PQC FOR RIGID AIRFIELD PAVEMENTS (JULY 2020)
shall be filled with mortar composed of one part of cement and two
parts of fine aggregate. Major honey combed areas or segregated
concrete or other defective work or areas damaged by removal of the
forms or concrete damaged by rain or due to any other reason
whatsoever shall be considered as defective work and shall be removed and
replaced by the contractor at his own expense. The total area of honey
combed surface not exceeding 2.5 sq.cm. each, shall not exceed 4% of the
area of the slab side. Engineer in charge’s decision as to whether the
concrete is defective or not shall be final and binding.
10.1 After the concrete has sufficiently hardened after about 12 hours and not
later than 24 hours, the surface shall be tested again for high spots. All high spots
shall be marked and those exceeding 3 mm shall be ground down
immediately as directed by the Engineer-in-Charge after obtaining his written
permission. Care shall be taken to see that the grinding does not in any way
damage the concrete surface.
10.2 The final surface finish is to be such that when tested with a
profilograph/ roughness indicator/or a 3 meter long straight edge or an equivalent
mechanical unevenness indicator placed anywhere within the same or adjoining
slab in any direction on the surface, there shall be no variation greater than 3mm.
10.4 Every slab shall bear an impression not exceeding 3 mm in depth comprising
the number allotted to the slab and the date on which it is laid. This impression
shall be formed by the Contractor when the concrete is green so as to leave
permanent mark on setting.

AAI SPECIFICATIONS OF PQC FOR RIGID AIRFIELD PAVEMENTS (JULY 2020)
11.1.1 Immediately after the surface texturing, the surface and sides of the slab shall
be cured by the application of approved resin-based aluminized reflective
curing compound or white pigmented curing compound which hardens into an
impervious film or membrane with the help of a mechanical sprayer.
11.1.2 Curing compounds shall contain sufficient flake aluminium in finely divided
dispersion to produce a complete coverage of the sprayed surface with a
metallic finish. The compound shall become stable and impervious to evaporation
of water from the surface of the concrete within 60 minutes of application
and shall be of approved type. The curing compounds shall have a water
retention efficiency index not less than 90 percent in accordance with BS
Specifications No.7542 or as per ASTM C-309-81 Type 2.
11.1.3 The curing compound shall not react chemically with the concrete and the film or
membrane shall not crack, peel or disintegrate within three weeks after
application. Immediately prior to use, the curing compound shall be
thoroughly agitated in its containers. The rate of spread shall be in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions checked during the construction of the trial
length and subsequently whenever required by the Engineer-in-Charge. The
mechanical sprayer shall incorporate an efficient mechanical device for continuous
agitation and mixing of the compound during spraying. Arrangements should be
made to spray the curing compound on the sides of the slab. The curing
compound shall be sprayed in two applications to ensure uniform spread. In
addition to spraying of the curing compound, the fresh concrete surface
shall be protected for at least 3 hours by covering the finished concrete
pavements with tents supported on mobile truss during adverse weather
conditions as directed by the Engineer-in-Charge.
Final curing shall be done either by spreading of wet hessian and moisturing it
regularly or by ponding method as given below. However, nothing extra
s h a l l be paid for curing by spreading wet hessian method. All joints
shall be filled in with temporary filler like sand etc. in order to prevent
the edges of joints from being damaged and entry o f clay m a t e r i a l s
i n t o t h e joints d u r i n g final curing.
After two or three hours after application of curing compound, the pavement shall
be covered including sides by moist hessian (minimum of two layers) and the same
shall then be kept damp for a minimum period of 14 days after which time
the hessian may be removed. During the curing period, the hessian shall be

AAI SPECIFICATIONS OF PQC FOR RIGID AIRFIELD PAVEMENTS (JULY 2020)
Exposed edges of the slab shall be banked with a substantial berm of earth.
Upon the slab shall then be laid a system of transverse and longitudinal
height of clay about 50 mm high immediately covered with a blanket of
sandy soil free from stones to prevent the drying up and cracking of
clay. The rest of slab within these boundaries shall then be covered with
sufficient sandy soil so as to produce blanket of earth not less than 40mm
deep after wetting. The earth covering shall be thoroughly wetted while it
is being place on the surface and against the sides of the slab and kept
thoroughly saturated with water for 21 days and thoroughly
nd
wetted down during the morning of the 22 day and shall
thereafter remain in place until the concrete has attained the
required strength and permission is given by the Engineer-in-
Charge. Thereafter the covering shall be removed and the pavement
cleaned and swept. If the earth covering becomes displaced during the
curing period, it shall be replaced to the original depth and restarted.
11.2.3 The contractor shall be liable at his cost to replace any concrete damaged
as a result of incomplete curing or cracked on a line other than that of a joint
as per procedure in IRC:SP-83.
11.2.4 The Contractor shall employ his own security personnel to prevent workmen,
cattle straying etc., on the pavement concrete.
11.2.5 Concrete shall not be subjected to any load or weight of any plant until at least 28
days after laying, except for cutting the joints as directed by the Engineer-in-
Charge.
12.1 The spacing of transverse and longitudinal joints shall be 4.5 to 5 meter or
as shown in the drawing. It shall be 10 mm wide and shall extend vertically
from the surface of the slab to a depth equal to one-third depth of
slab. The joint shall be formed by cutting with a joint cutting machine. The
initial cut or slot of not less than 3mm wide is to be formed by sawing
Page - 676
AAI SPECIFICATIONS OF PQC FOR RIGID AIRFIELD PAVEMENTS (JULY 2020)
12.2 Before cutting the dummy joints, all necessary precautions shall be taken to ensure
that the joint alignment is marked straight and true as per the drawings. The joint
cutting machine will be handled only by an experienced person thoroughly familiar
with this type of work. The joint should be cut along this alignment only. Any error
in the joint cutting alignment shall be rectified by the Contractor at his own
expense as directed by the Engineer-in-Charge, preferably using epoxy
concrete as approved.
12.3 The groove shall be inserted with 12mm dia closed-cell Polyethylene foam
back-up rod, 13mm below from the surface of the concrete and filling with
Polysulphide Sealant conforming to grade B.S.: 5212-1990 or IS:11433-1995.
Prior to filling with Polysulphide, the joints shall be cleaned by compressed
air up to full depth and primed properly with appropriate Polysulphide primer up
to back-up rod and masking tape shall be applied along the edges of joint to
prevent spillage of sealant on top surface to give neat finish to sealant. The
masking tape shall be removed after the sealant has been applied and tooled.
12.4 All joints shall be sealed as soon as practicable after 28 days of placing of slabs.
Joints shall be sealed flush with the adjacent pavement surface. The pavement
shall be opened to traffic only after joint sealing over the entire pavement has
been completed. To prevent tackiness or pick up under traffic, the exposed
surfaces of the sealing compound shall be dusted with hydrated lime, if
directed by Engineer-in-Charge, for which nothing extra shall be paid to the
Contractor.
12.5 Each lot sealant shall be supported with manufacturers test certificate. However
one sample per 1000 kg. of sealant received at site or part thereof shall be
collected by the Engineer-in-Charge or his authorized representative and sent
for testing to any Government/ AAI approved Laboratory.
The contractor shall note that as testing charges of sealant seem to be high,
they shall confirm the testing charges and quote their rates accordingly.
Nothing extra over and above the quoted rates is payable on this account and
no plea on what so ever ground will be entertained later on.
12.6 In case of sudden rain or storm, the work can be concluded at the dummy

12.7 Before sealing of joints, it may be ensured that the transverse joints on each side
of the longitudinal joint shall be in line with each other and of the same type and
width. Any concrete or other foreign matter must be removed from the groove
before sealing.
13.1 Construction joints shall be provided as shown in the drawing and also at places
whenever day’s operations start and stops or where concreting is stopped due to
unforeseen circumstances. The joints shall be straight and vertical through the
full depth of the slab.
13.2 At all construction joints, bulk head shall be used to retain the concrete and care
shall be taken in striking off and finishing the surface to the top face of the
bulkhead. When work is resumed, the surface of concrete laid subsequently,
shall conform to the grade and cross section of previously laid pavement.
Where semi-mechanized method of construction is used, the concrete along the
face of all joints shall be compacted with an internal vibrator inserted in the
concrete and worked along the joint to ensure a concrete free from
honeycombing. In case of mechanized construction, working and vibration/RPM
of all the fixed vibrators shall be checked. There shall be two additional needle
vibrators to compact the concrete near bulk head.
13.3 The Sealing of joints shall be done in the same manner as for contraction
joints, by cutting a groove of 10mm wide and 25mm deep as shown in Appendix
‘A’.
14.2 Where semi-mechanized method of construction is used, the concrete along the
face of all joints shall be compacted with an internal vibrator inserted in the
concrete and worked along the joint to ensure a concrete free from

14.3 Synthetic expansion joint filler board as per specification shall be used to fill the
gap between adjacent slabs at expansion joint. The joint groove shall be filled
with Polysulphide conforming to grade B.S.: 5212-1990 or IS: 11433-1995.
Prior to filling with Polysulphide, the joints shall be cleaned by compressed air
up to full depth and primed properly with appropriate Polysulphide primer up to
back-up rod and masking tape shall be applied along the edges of joint to
prevent spillage of sealant on top surface to give neat finish to sealant. The
masking tape shall be removed after the sealant has been applied and tooled. The
details of expansion joint shall be as given in Appendix –‘A’.
15.1 Materials
15.1.3 Primer: It shall be applied on the concrete faces of the joints. It shall be single
component primer suitable for use with Polysulphide joint sealant, as approved by

rod & sealant could be filled after removal of the top cut portion of the filler board.
Nothing extra shall be paid for the filler board from top upto the bottom of back-
up rod/baker rod.
2. As the period for the test will be around three weeks, advance planning is
required to avoid any delay on this account.
15.2 PROCEDURE
15.2.1 Preparation of Surface: All the joint surfaces to which the sealant is to be
applied should be clean, dry and free from any loose material, dirt, dust,
scale, protective lacquer, grease.
15.2.2 Expansion joint filler material must be checked to ensure that it is tightly
packed and no gaps or voids exist at the base of the joint slot.
15.2.4 Before sealant is applied, primer shall be applied to secure better adhesion
between sealant and the concrete surface. The surface shall be allowed to dry for
at least 30 minutes but no longer than 3 hours before the sealant is applied.
15.2.5 To prevent accidental spillage of sealant on the top surface and to give a neat
finish, masking tape should be applied along the edge of joint before the sealant
material is filled.
15.2.6 Immediately after filling the joints, the sealant should be tooled either with a
stainless steel or wooden spatula of the size of the joint to give a smooth surface.
While tooling, the spatula should be wetted with a wetting agent like soap water.
Masking tape shall be removed immediately after the sealant has been tooled.
By tooling, the sealant is compressed with the result that air bubbles if any, are
broken up and the sealant becomes free of voids and there is a proper
adhesion of the sealant to the sides of the joints.
15.3 Sealant of approved make shall be filled only after complete curing of concrete
i.e., after 28 days. Sealant shall be applied slightly to a lower level than the slab
with a tolerance of 1+0.5mm as shown in Appendix –‘A’
15.4 Sealant of approved make shall be filled up for a depth as specified in item. The
rate of application of sealant may be calculated on the basis of the following
formula:

Contractor in the field testing laboratory. Nothing extra shall be paid to him on
this account. Records as required shall be maintained at site.
All test details in support of mix design shall be maintained as part of records
of the contract and shall be signed both by the contractor and the Engineer-
in-Charge or their authorized representatives. The contractor shall provide
all labour, materials and equipment required for all tests to be carried out, at
his own cost.
16.3 The Engineer-in-Charge reserves the right to test any concrete laid
regarding quality, soundness, compaction, thickness strength and finish of the
concrete at any time before the expiry of the “Defects Liability period”
notwithstanding that necessary tests had been carried out and found
satisfactory at the time of execution.
16.4.1 Samples of concrete shall be collected at the point of discharge on the pavement
and beams cast as controlled specimens and tested in accordance with IS:
516 and IS: 1199. The concrete will be said to comply with the specified
flexural strength, when the following conditions are met with.
(a) The mean strength determined from any group of four consecutive
samples (each sample containing 3 beam specimen i.e. 4x3 =12
beam specimens) at 28 days should exceed the specified characteristic
flexural strength by at least 0.3 MPa i.e., 4.4 MPa.
(b) The strength of any specimen is not less than the specified
characteristic flexural strength minus 0.1 MPa i.e., 4.0 MPa.
16.4.2 Should the concrete fail to pass the specification for strength as
described above, the contractor may, all at his own expense elect to cut cores
(diameter of the core not less than 150mm) as per the direction of Engineer-in-
Charge where the requirements are not met with. The points from where cores
are to be taken and the number of cores required shall be at the discretion
of the Engineer-in-Charge and shall be representative of the whole of concrete
concerned. In no case, however, shall fewer than 3 cores be tested.
16.4.3 Cores shall be prepared and tested as described in IS 516. Concrete in the
member represented by a core test shall be considered acceptable if the
average of the results of crushing strength tests of the cores shall not be
less than 0.8x0.85 times the corresponding Characteristic compressive strength
of cubes and no individual core has a strength less than 0.8x0.75 times the
corresponding Characteristic compressive strength of cubes where height to
Page - 686
AAI SPECIFICATIONS OF PQC FOR RIGID AIRFIELD PAVEMENTS (JULY 2020)
Sample calculation for required core strength is placed below for core cut
with height to diameter ratio of core is 2:
fcr = 4 . 1 MPa
4.1 = K
fck = 16.81/K2
16.4.4 If however, the tests on cores also confirm that the concrete is not
satisfying the strength requirements, then the concrete corresponding to the
area from which the cores were cut should be replaced, i.e., over an
area extending between two transverse joints where the defects could
be isolated or over larger area as decided by the Engineer-in-Charge.
16.4.5 All defective and sub-standard work which includes concrete slab of
sub-standard strength as established in above para shall be liable to rejection
and shall be replaced by the contractor at his expense. Acceptance
criteria for cracked concrete slabs shall be as follows (ref. clause 12.33 of IRC-
15-2017):
i) Fine crazy cracks (Plastic shrinkage cracks) with cumulative length of 3000
mm in a slab can be accepted after repair as per IRC:SP-83. Beyond
cumulative length of 3000 mm, it shall be rejected.
ii) Slabs with cracks running transversely or longitudinally penetrating to full
depth and length of the slab are to be rejected.
iii) Slabs with any type of cracks which are penetrating to more than half the
depth shall be rejected. (ref. clause 12.33 of IRC-15-2017).
iv) When due to operational or any other reason, such replacement does
not become possible (decision of Engineer-in-charge in this respect
Page - 687
AAI SPECIFICATIONS OF PQC FOR RIGID AIRFIELD PAVEMENTS (JULY 2020)
being final and binding on the contractor), the cost of removal and
replacement of such rejected work shall be recovered from
the contractor whether such rejected work is subsequently replaced by
the Deptt. or not.
17.1 Concreting during rains: To prevent damage to freshly laid concrete during
monsoon, or sudden rains, the Contractor shall provide an adequate
supply of tarpaulins or other water-proof material. Any concrete
damaged by rain shall be removed and replaced by the Contractor at
his own cost as directed by the Engineer-in-Charge. If need be, necessary
provisions shall be made to support the water- proof material clear of
the newly-laid concrete surface to prevent smoothening or any damage due to
the contact with tarpaulin. The whole unit should be weighted down

regarding level, thickness, surface regularity, texture, finish strength
of concrete and all other quality control measures shall be the same as in
the case of machine laid down.
9.1.1 Concrete shall be deposited between the forms. Where a certain amount of
redistribution is necessary, it shall be done with shovels and not with rakes. The
concrete shall be compacted with the needle vibrator and vibrating screeds. Use
of vibrator near side forms is essential to eliminate honey combing. To effect
adequate compaction, the concrete shall be placed with appropriate surcharge
over the final slab thickness. The amount of surcharge will depend upon the
mode of placement of concrete and shall be determined by trial. In general, the
required surcharge is about 20% of the required slab thickness.

AAI SPECIFICATIONS OF PQC FOR RIGID AIRFIELD PAVEMENTS (JULY 2020)
9.1.2 The concrete is to be deposited and spread to such a depth that when compacted
and finished, the slab thickness indicated will be obtained at all points and the
surface will not at any point be below the level specified for the finished
surface.
9.2.1 Compaction shall be carried out by electrically operated needle and screed
vibrators as stipulated hereafter. Needle vibrators should be used all over
the area for obtaining initial compaction of concrete. These should be of
diameter not less than 4.5 cm and if the vibrators are pneumatic, the pressure
must not be below 4 kg/sq.cm. If electrically operated, they should have a
minimum frequency of 3500 impulses per minute. Minimum number of petrol
driven vibrators as specified by the Engineer-in-Charge with minimum frequency
of 3500 impulses per minute shall be provided at each work head as a standby
arrangement. The screed and internal vibrator shall conform to I.S.:2505 and
I.S.: 2506 respectively.

mounted thereon shall follow needle vibrators to obtain full compaction. The
face of the wooden tamping edge of the screed shall be lined with M.S.
plate rigidly fixed by means of counter sunk screws. Where screed vibrators
are used for compaction, a standby unit shall always be maintained ready for
use, should the other one go out of order. Where electrically driven vibrators are
employed, a stand by pneumatic unit shall be kept ready for use in case of power
failure. At the discretion of the Engineer-in-Charge, for compaction at edges and
joints, vibrators may be supplemented by hand tamping and rodding for securing
satisfactory results. Under no circumstances, honey combing of concrete at joints
or elsewhere shall be permitted.
9.2.3 When using screed vibrator for compaction, it should not be dragged over
the concrete. During the initial passes, it shall be lifted to the adjacent forward
position in the steps. Subsequently, it shall be slowly slided over the surface
with its axis slightly tilted away from the direction of sliding and the
operation repeated until a close, dense surface is obtained.
9.2.4 Work men shall not be allowed to walk on freshly laid concrete. All
operations shall be carried out from suitable wooden bridges spanning the lane-
width.
9.2.5 IMPORTANT PRECAUTION: The vibration process shall be restricted just upto
the stage of appearance of water/ cement slurry on the surface. After
reaching this point vibration should be discontinued. It should be ensured that

9.3.1 Immediately after compacting of concrete and the construction of joints but
before the concrete has hardened and while the concrete is still in a plastic state,
the pavement surface shall be inspected for irregularities with a profile
checking template and minor irregularities and score marks shall be eliminated
by removing surplus material or by adding and working in freshly mixed concrete
if necessary by means of long handled floats and scraping straight edges followed
by further compaction and finishing. The long handled floats may be used to
smoothen and fill in open textured area in the pavement surface, but the final
finishing is to be done with scraping straight edges.
9.3.2 The scraping straight edges are to be 3 meters long with flexible handles
long enough to reach the other side of the slab when operated from one side of
the pavement. They are to be placed parallel to the forms at the side of the
pavements and worked backwards and forwards uniformly across the width of the
slab. After this operation has been completed and the surface has been brought
to the required finish, the straight edge is to be moved forward but not more than
half its length and the process repeated.
9.3.3 The straight edge testing and refloating is to continue until the entire surface:

15.2 PROCEDURE
15.2.1 Preparation of Surface: All the joint surfaces to which the sealant is to be
applied should be clean, dry and free from any loose material, dirt, dust,
scale, protective lacquer, grease.
15.2.2 Expansion joint filler material must be checked to ensure that it is tightly
packed and no gaps or voids exist at the base of the joint slot.
15.2.4 Before sealant is applied, primer shall be applied to secure better adhesion
between sealant and the concrete surface. The surface shall be allowed to dry for
at least 30 minutes but no longer than 3 hours before the sealant is applied.
15.2.5 To prevent accidental spillage of sealant on the top surface and to give a neat
finish, masking tape should be applied along the edge of joint before the sealant
material is filled.
15.2.6 Immediately after filling the joints, the sealant should be tooled either with a
stainless steel or wooden spatula of the size of the joint to give a smooth surface.
While tooling, the spatula should be wetted with a wetting agent like soap water.
Masking tape shall be removed immediately after the sealant has been tooled.
By tooling, the sealant is compressed with the result that air bubbles if any, are
broken up and the sealant becomes free of voids and there is a proper
adhesion of the sealant to the sides of the joints.
15.3 Sealant of approved make shall be filled only after complete curing of concrete
i.e., after 28 days. Sealant shall be applied slightly to a lower level than the slab
with a tolerance of 1+0.5mm as shown in Appendix –‘A’.
15.4 Sealant of approved make shall be filled up for a depth as specified in item. The
rate of application of sealant may be calculated on the basis of the following
formula:

All test details in support of mix design shall be maintained as part of records
of the contract and shall be signed both by the contractor and the Engineer-
in-Charge or their authorized representatives. The contractor shall provide
all labour, materials and equipment required for all tests to be carried out, at
his own cost.
16.3 The Engineer-in-Charge reserves the right to test any concrete laid
regarding quality, soundness, compaction, thickness strength and finish of the
concrete at any time before the expiry of the “Defects Liability period”
notwithstanding that necessary tests had been carried out and found
satisfactory at the time of execution.
16.4.1 Samples of concrete shall be collected at the point of discharge on the pavement
and beams cast as controlled specimens and tested in accordance with IS:
516 and IS: 1199. The concrete will be said to comply with the specified
flexural strength, when the following conditions are met with.
(c) The mean strength determined from any group of four consecutive
samples (each sample containing 3 beam specimen i.e. 4x3 =12
beam specimens) at 28 days should exceed the specified characteristic
flexural strength by at least 0.3 MPa i.e., 4.4 MPa.
Page - 728
AAI SPECIFICATIONS OF PQC FOR RIGID AIRFIELD PAVEMENTS (JULY 2020)
(d) The strength of any specimen is not less than the specified
characteristic flexural strength minus 0.1 MPa i.e., 4.0 MPa.
16.4.2 Should the concrete fail to pass the specification for strength as
described above, the contactor may, all at his own expense elect to cut cores
(diameter of the core not less than 150mm) as per the direction of Engineer-in-
Charge where the requirements are not met with. The points from where cores
are to be taken and the number of cores required shall be at the discretion
of the Engineer-in-Charge and shall be representative of the whole of concrete
concerned. In no case, however, shall fewer than 3 cores be tested.
16.4.3 Cores shall be prepared and tested as described in IS 516. Concrete in the
member represented by a core test shall be considered acceptable if the
average of the results of crushing strength tests of the cores shall not be
less than 0.8x0.85 times the corresponding Characteristic compressive strength
of cubes and no individual core has a strength less than 0.8x0.75 times the
corresponding Characteristic compressive strength of cubes where height to
diameter ratio of the core is 2. Where height to diameter ratio of
the core is not 2 necessary corrections shall be made in calculating
crushing strength of cubes as per clause 12.21.1 of IRC:15-2017.
Sample calculation for required core strength is placed below for core cut
with height to diameter ratio of core is 2:
Fcr = 4 . 1 MPa
4.1 = K
fck = 16.81/K2
16.4.4 If however, the tests on cores also confirm that the concrete is not
satisfying the strength requirements, then the concrete corresponding to the
area from which the cores were cut should be replaced, i.e., over an
area extending between two transverse joints where the defects could
be isolated or over larger area as decided by the Engineer-in-Charge.

criteria for cracked concrete slabs shall be as follows (ref. clause 12.33 of IRC-
15-2017):
i) Fine crazy cracks (plastic shrinkage cracks) with cumulative length of 3000
mm in a slab can be accepted after repair as per IRC:SP-83. Beyond
cumulative length of 3000 mm, it shall be rejected.
ii) Slabs with cracks running transversely or longitudinally penetrating to full
depth and length of the slab are to be rejected.
iii) Slabs with any type of cracks which are penetrating to more than half the
depth shall be rejected. (ref. clause 12.33 of IRC-15-2017).
iv) When due to operational or any other reason, such replacement does
not become possible (decision of Engineer-in-charge in this respect
being final and binding on the contractor), the cost of removal and
replacement of such rejected work shall be recovered from
the contractor whether such rejected work is subsequently replaced by

33.1 General:
This specification describes a modular three phase on line, continuous operation,
solid state uninterruptible power supply (UPS) with single phase / three phase
output as per requirement. The requirements of electrical power supply system are
specified herein on system design basis. The contractor shall be fully responsible
for Engineering and furnishing a complete and operational system fully meeting the
intent and requirements of this specification.
PAGE - 841
a. Nature of load & application
b. Load pattern
c. Extreme unbalance condition where one of phase carrying current which is
near or equal to zero whereas the other two phases loaded near or equal to
100% load and large unbalance current flowing in the neutral.
Based upon this agency may offer higher rated (KVA) UPS (taking into
consideration the available floor space at site) but should not be less than rated
(KVA) UPS. In case the contractor goes for higher rated (KVA) UPS, prior approval
should be obtained and no extra cost on account of this what so ever shall be
payable by AAI to the contracting agency.
ii. Inverter:
The inverter must be based on switching 3 level IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar
Transistor) circuit with high frequency PWM and must be able to transform DC
supply coming from rectifier/ PFC (Power Factor Corrector) in case of battery
run to AC voltage. Furthermore, must be present also in control circuits which
guarantees:
Arrest and protection of inverter in case of strong & long overloads.
Keep the harmonic distortion of the output voltage less than the
parameters mentioned in Technical Data Specification either in normal run
or in battery run.
Arrest & protect the inverter in case of over temperature of power
PAGE - 842
converter elements.
Manage the speed of the fans accordingly with internal temperature and
applied load.
v. Automatic bypass:
The automatic bypass must be composed by following parts:
Static switch with zero time for intervention, connected in parallel with an
electro- mechanic switch which needs a transfer time but with zero heat
dissipation among time.
DSP/microprocessor logic command and control which will attend to
Automatically transfer the load to the mains as soon as following anomaly
of event occurs: Overload, Over temperature, Voltage runawaes on DC
buses, anomalies on the inverter. Automatically transfer back the load
from the mains to inverter as soon as anomalous even expires.
Automatically disable the bypass function in case of output voltage & mains
are not synchronized.
PAGE - 843
vii. Batteries:
The sealed maintenance free stationary batteries are housed in separate
cabinets of same shape and size. The positive and negative battery connections
are protected by an adequate battery circuit breaker isolating switch. The
battery racks shall be of MS angle iron structure duly painted with earthing
arrangement. The layout of battery racks and the arrangement of batteries in
racks shall be arranged in such a way that all the individual batteries shall be
fully accessible. The complete set of batteries so connected in series parallel
configuration so as to obtain the required voltage limits of inverter operations
to get a backup of minimum 30 minutes.
The battery management function consists of conduction of the battery test
either automatically or upon the user’s request. Battery efficiency test
conducted by making an automatic full discharge at programmed or periodic
frequencies as required by the user. Calculation of the residue battery runtime
during the discharge phase, depending on the load applied. Facilities to protect
the batteries from damage due to deep discharges shall be provided.
The minimum backup time mentioned above shall be guaranteed for period of
not less than 2 years. Extended guarantee period offered by the battery
manufacturer shall also be extended to AAI irrespective of the defect liability
period of the capital contract.
PAGE - 844
When a temporary overload occurs on the load side of the UPS, current
monitoring allows the UPS to withstand the situation within certain limits,
without automatic bypass having to be used. If the overload lasts a long time or
exceeds the limit present by the current monitoring device, the user is
transferred without interruptions to the primary mains by means of the
automatic bypass and their returns to the inverter once the over load has
terminated.
iv. Mains failure condition:
In a blackout or if the electricity mains values are off range the users are
powered by the batteries via the booster inverter pathway. The battery
functions in dis charged conditions in this operating mode. The UPS informs the
near about the operating status with clear visual and acoustic signals. The DSP
control will calculate the available residual time depending on the
instantaneously applied load. This display is shown on the frontal runtime
display.
v. After a Blackout:
When the main power supply returns within the tolerated limit after a voltage
drop or a blackout the UPS automatically returns to operate in normal service
condition taking power from mains. Even after the end of autonomy, at the
return of the mains, the battery charger should start automatically charging of
battery.
vi. Operation of UPS with generator supply as mains:
The output frequency of UPS is synchronized with the mains input frequency.
This synchronizing process is guaranteed by microprocessor control within a
± 2% range of the nominal frequency. Out of this range the UPS stops
synchronizing with the input frequency and guarantees a strictly constant
output frequency. To achieve optimum operation in combination of generators
or gen sets, typically characterized by frequency fluctuation exceeding ± 2%
range, the UPS must have the possibility to guarantee synchronism between
the input and output frequency for even wider frequency ranges (± 5%).
vii. Controls:
The UPS shall have the following controls
UPS secure powering (protection against accidental powering)
UPS stopping (to prevent accidental power offs while allowing UPS to
be quickly shutdown in emergency)
Buzzer silencer arrangement.
Keyboard to browse the means on the display set parameters,
confirming selected functions and gritting.

(d) Determine the appropriate building type and the allowed lighting power
density (Refer Table 6-4 for ECBC Buildings, table 6-5 for ECBC+ Buildings and,
table 6-6 for Super ECBC Buildings). In cases where both a common space type
and building specific space type are listed, building specific space type LPD
shall apply.
(e) For each space, enclosed by partitions 80% or greater than ceiling height,
determine the gross lighted floor area by measuring to the center of the
partition wall. Include the area of balconies or other projections. Retail spaces
PAGE - 858
do not have to comply with the 80% partition height requirements.
(f) The interior lighting power allowance is the sum of the lighting power
allowances for all spaces. The lighting power allowance for a space is the
product of the gross lighted floor area of the space times the allowed lighting
power density for that space.
For other spaces, this automatic control device shall function on either:
Sl. No. Space Area (m2) Maximum Coverage Area for each Control Device
(m2)
1 < 1000 250
2 > 1000 1000
Each control device shall be capable of overriding the required shut off control for
no more than 2 hours. It should be readily accessible and located such that the
occupant can see the control.
Exception to above: The required control device may be remotely installed if
required for reasons of safety or security. A remotely located device shall have a
pilot light indicator as part of or next to the control device and shall be clearly
labeled to identify the controlled lighting.
PAGE - 859
40.2.3 Day-lighting Controls
Luminaires in day lighted areas greater than 25 Sqm (269 Sq.ft.) shall be equipped
with either a manual or automatic lighting control device that is capable of
reducing lighting output of the luminaires in the day lighted areas by at least 50%
and controls only the luminaires located entirely within the day lighted area.
Timers: These are the simplest type of controls and are most popular. Some areas
in buildings may require lighting for specific durations like security lighting,
landscape lighting or building floodlighting. Timers allow this type of control by
switching ‘on’ and ‘off’ as per preset times. These can have one setting (same time)
for the whole year or several (seasonal / weekly / daily) settings to take care of the
changing sunset times.
Photocell Lighting Control: These measure the amount of natural light available
and suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. When available light falls
below a specified level, a control unit switches the lights on (or adjusts a driver to
provide more light). Photocells can be programmed so that lights do not flip on and
off on partially cloudy days.
Occupancy Sensors: These devices – also known as ‘motion detectors’ – turn lights
off and on in response to human presence. Once sensitivity and coverage area is
established, sensors are selected from two predominant technology types.
Passive Infrared Sensors: These detect the motion or heat between vertical and
horizontal detection zones. This technology requires a direct line of sight and is
more sensitive to lateral motion, but it requires layer motion as distance from the
sensor increases. The coverage pattern and field of view can also be precisely
controlled. It typically finds its best application in smaller spaces with a direct line
of sight, such as restrooms.
Ultrasonic Sensors: These detect movement by sensing disturbances in high-
frequency ultrasonic patterns. Because this technology emits ultrasonic waves that
are reflected around the room surfaces, it does not require a direct line of sight. It
is more sensitive to motion towards and away from the sensor and its sensitivity
decreases relative to its distances from the sensor. It also does not have a definable
coverage pattern or field of view. These characteristics make it suitable for use in
layer-enclosed areas that may have cabinets, shelving, partitions, or other
obstructions. If necessary, these technologies can also be combined into one
PAGE - 860
product to improve detection and reduce the likelihood of triggering a false on or
off mode.
• Motors of horsepower differing from those listed in the table shall have
efficiency greater than that of the listed kW motor.
• Motor horsepower ratings shall not exceed 20% of the calculated maximum
load.
• Motor nameplates shall list the nominal full load motor efficiencies and
the full load power factor.
• Motor users should insist on proper rewinding practices for rewound motors.
If the proper rewinding practices cannot be assured, the damaged motor
should be replaced with a new, efficient one rather than suffer the significant
efficiency penalty associated with typical rewind practices.
• Certificates shall be obtained and kept on record indicating the motor
efficiency. Whenever a motor is rewound, appropriate measures shall be
taken so that the core characteristics of the
motor is not lost due to thermal and mechanical stress during removal of
damaged parts. After rewinding, a new efficiency test shall be performed and
similar records shall be maintained.
• Motors should be installed with soft start energy savers and Variable Speed
drives based on the application required.
40.4 Metering
• Services exceeding 1000 KVA shall have permanently installed electrical
metering to record demand (kVA), energy (kWh), and total power factor. The
metering shall also display current (in each phase and the neutral), voltage
(between phases and between each phase and neutral), and total harmonic
distortion (THD) as a percentage of total current.
• Services not exceeding 100 kVA but over 65 kVA shall have permanently
installed electric metering to record demand (kW), energy (kWh), and total
power factor (or kVARh).
• Services not exceeding 65 kVA shall have permanently installed electrical
PAGE - 861
metering to record energy (kWh).
• Electrical meters shall be installed to measure the energy units generated on
site through DG / GG sets.
• Separate electrical sub-meters shall be installed to measure energy
consumption by HVAC plant, AHU fans and indoor lighting.
• BTU meters* shall be installed for each chiller at the entry and leaving points
to measure the cooling generated by chillers.
• BTU meter* shall be installed on the chilled water loop to measure the
building’s total cooling demand.
*BTU Meter: BTU is the acronym for British Thermal Unit, which is a traditional unit
of energy. BTU meters are used for thermometric billing as they measure heat in
terms of BTU. These meters are used for measuring energy consumption of heating
and cooling systems. By installing BTU meters at individual chillers, cooling generated
by individual chillers can be measured and by installing the BTU meter on the chilled
water loop, building’s total cooling demand can be measured.

38.0 MAINTENANCE
38.1 Organized maintenance based on preventive maintenance is essential to
ensure:
(i) Un-interrupted service
(ii) No break-down
(iii) Safety, no mishaps
(iv) Economic operation
(v) Lower energy bills
(vi) Long useful life.
Therefore, due importance is to be given for maintenance.
38.2 General Guidelines
41.2.1 Persons engaged in maintenance works should be competent for the type of
work involved and should possess necessary license.
41.2.2 Safety procedures as indicated should be duly followed.
41.2.3 41.2.3 (a) In any building, additions and alterations are bound to occur at any time.
When such additions/ alterations are to be undertaken, it is very important to
check in advance the likely loading of the distribution system and to strengthen the
system as necessary before allowing the extra load to be connected, so as to avoid
overloading of any part of the system. Even phase balancing may need to be redone
so as to keep the neutral current low. To enable compliance to this safety aspect,
the detailed distribution schematic diagram indicating also the wire/cable sizes,
current rating of switchgear/ fuses, loading on individual circuit etc. should be
available at site. This may be kept up even in a register form, with different pages
for different floors / wings, for ready reference at any time. This should be
supplemented with detailed inventory.
(b) These should be updated, as and when additions / alterations are carried out
so that the data may be fully relied upon, for further references. In fact, if any
major additions alterations / rewiring is carried out, proper record should be
kept in the history book for the installation.
(c) It is necessary that those responsible for the site maintenance should have a
clear knowledge about the distribution system.
41.2.4 The number of items to be maintained in a building may be many like fittings, fans,
DBs, earth sets etc. In order to achieve compliance to the prescribed periodicities
for the various activities on them as per this schedule, each of these items may be
divided into convenient numbers, to carry out the respective activities in sub
periods, in a cyclic (sequential) order. For example, if DB’s are to be checked every
month, and there are 50 DBs in a building, these may be checked at the rate of 2 or
PAGE - 864
3 DBs every day in a sequential order (programmed in advance) so that all DBs are
checked in a month.
41.2.5 Maintenance activities carried out as per this schedule should be noted in the
Maintenance Register. When tests are carried out, the test results should be
recorded with appropriate identification references (For Example: SDB7; Earth pit
No.4; R/M- Wing A etc.)
41.2.6 (a) The voltage of supply, total load current and PF should be noted in logbook
every day, preferably during peak loading time of the day. (In the case of isolated/
unattended buildings where it is not feasible to log daily, the period may be
increased to weekly or fortnightly as feasible).
(b) If any instrument is not provided, provide the same now. If any of the
instruments is defective, get it repaired early.
41.2.7 Inspection of electrical installations is intended primarily from fire safety
considerations.
Following points need to be observed as part of inspection, and corrective
action as necessary should be taken immediately, including coordination with
the client departments concerned, as may be required.
41.2.7.1 Check that there is no sign of heating up, burning smell, de-colouration or
sparking at any of the boards (SDBs as well as main boards), and Rising Mains.
These may occur due to overloading or loose terminations. Highly unbalanced
loading may cause heavy neutral currents and consequent heating of neutral
conductors and terminals.
41.2.7.2 No temporary wiring exists anywhere in the building.
41.2.7.3 There is no joint in cords connecting the WTAC units / voltage regulators /
office equipment like photocopier, PC etc.
41.2.7.4 No bare wiring exists over the flooring without mechanical protection by a
metallic conduit / channel.
41.2.7.5 There is no misuse of socket outlets, such as connecting power load to light socket,
connection of multiple loads to one socket, use of heaters in record room, library
etc. In such cases of additional demands of outlets, these should be provided early,
after taking approval of the competent authority.
41.2.7.6 All DBs should be only of MCB type and all sockets for WTAC units should be of
industrial type controlled by MCB.
41.2.7.7 The shafts / spaces for electrical services are not misused, for storage or for
dumping rubbish.
41.2.7.8 The spaces in front of DB’s and sockets are free (without any storage of files /
papers etc.)
41.2.7.9 No additions/ alterations are done by the user departments to the electrical
installations by themselves.
41.2.8 (a) A record of loading upto DB level (in each phase in case of 3 phase DBs) should
be maintained, after measurements using a clip on ammeter. Such measurement
should be done, as far as possible during peak season (summer and winter), when
the loads are likely to be the highest.
(b) The PF should be maintained above 0.8 (or any higher value fixed by the licensee
PAGE - 865
without penalty). Examine the adequacy of capacitors (if any) accordingly.
(c) Note down from the electricity bills, details of maximum demand, energy & PF to
examine the trend of loading, penal charges if any being paid etc. (Even if the bills
are paid directly by client Depts.) review of contract demand, strengthening of
system, PF correction requirements etc. should be done with this review.
41.2.9 (a) While cleaning fittings and fans, the fixing / suspending arrangements should
also be checked and attended to as necessary. Care should be taken that the
alignment is not disturbed.
(b)(i) In the case of ceiling fans, remove the blades, and wash the same with detergent,
without causing any deformation of blade angle. Check the shackle and replace if
damaged. Check that down rod is fully screwed upto the last thread on both ends
and that threads are not loose. If so required, replace with new down rod of the
same size, thickness and length of threading (not less than 20 mm). Check split pins
and replace if any strain deformation or damage is observed. If any other system
of suspension had been adopted, check the soundness of the same and tighten as
necessary. Fix fan blades tightly to the body. Operate the fan at different speeds;
the run should be without wobbling/ noise.
(ii) As per specifications, lubrication needs to be done as necessary. In such cases, the
fan needs to be brought down, after removing the blades. The old grease should be
replaced with a fresh one, after cleaning the bearing. If damaged, the bearing
should be replaced. When reinstalling the fan, the suspension bolts should be well
tightened.
41.2.10 (a) Insulation test should be done during monsoon season, as per clause 16.2 of
CPWD General Specifications for Electrical Works Part I Internal, 2013.
(b) Earth continuity test and earth electrode resistance test should be conducted
during summer season, as per clauses 16.4 and 16.5 of the above specifications.
(c) Record the test results giving identification references. If results are not
satisfactory in any part of the installation, reason should be checked and
corrective action be taken immediately.

delivery. & non-return valve of appropriate size and a pressure gauge with cock shall
be provided on the delivery line.
The pumping system for tube wells shall be designed for 8-10 hours operation
(average) per day.
PAGE - 988
rpm with high efficiency and low noise motor can be selected and noise data
submitted for approval.
All pumps and motors shall be of minimum vibration and noise level during
operation. Vibration isolators shall be provided for all pump sets.

PAGE - 989
The system operation will be such that the initial small water demand shall be met by
the charged diaphragm pressure vessel. Should the water demand continue the
system pressure will dip to a preset pump cut-in point when the lead pump starts to
operate at reduced speed through the variable speed drive. However, should the
system pressure be still below the preset value, the controller continuously increases
pump speed to meet the system demand. When the lead pump is not able to meet the
system pressure at full speed, the second pump also starts to operate.
At peak demand all the pumps operate, Similarly, if there is a drop-in water demand
the duty pump speed starts to reduce, then standby pumps cuts-off, followed by
stopping of the duty pump.
The closed diaphragm pressure vessel shall be of polyethylene material with a
pressure gauge and isolating valve. The interior shall be of non-toxic lining suitable
for use with potable water. The vessel shall be manufactured to conform to ASME
pressure vessel code/standards.
The system shall be under the control of an electronic microprocessor unit (EMU).
A pressure transmitter shall detect the pressure at the delivery manifold and
feedback to the microprocessor control panel via control circuit.
The system shall incorporate a frequency converter or frequency converter motors
on the pumps and the pressure transmitter shall register the actual pressure on the
discharge side.
The variable speed drive pumping system shall maintain a constant pressure
regardless of the system demand. If there is a drop-in pressure outside the preset
point, the Variable Speed Drive (VSD) pump shall start to run until the pressure
increases to the preset limit, or it will continue to increase the pump speeds to the
upper limit of the frequency. If the water system demand still cannot be met, the
second pump shall be called in to run, the VSD will then alter the pump speed to meet
the preset pressure point. If the set point is still unable to be met, the third pump is
then activated to run (in case of 3 pumps units). All the pumps shall be installed with
variable speed drive.
This shall be achieved by continuously varying the motor speed of the duty pump
according to the demand up to a maximum designed capacity.
Under decreasing hydraulic demand, the reverse sequence to the above description
shall apply.
The EMU shall ensure alternation of all the duty and standby pumps for even running
hours for all the pumps.
The frequency converter shall be linked to the motor of the duty pump for continuous
speed adjustment and ultimately the water delivery shall be maintained at constant
pressure at the preset value.
PAGE - 990
shall be able to minimize the system pressure differences and provide a more
constant pressure along the supply line and also to save the energy consumption
of the motor when running at low speed.
c. Automatic changeover of the pumps to be controlled by the microprocessor which
dictates the duty and standby pumps to run at variable speed.
d. Built-in clock functions with weekly programming and with switch on system to
operate at least 10 different pre-set pressure points as required.
e. When the system has not been operated for more than 24 hours, it shall
automatically start the pumps for a few seconds/day to ensure the pumps
readiness at all times. The standby pumps shall be activated upon failure of duty
pump(s). In event of control failure, the pumps shall be able to be start/stopped
manually at the local panel by means of pressure switches.
f. The microprocessor control panel shall be able to cut-off the pumping system
when excess pressure is registered in the discharge common manifold.
g. The system shall have the capability of receiving input signal concerning reduced
water level in suction tanks and shall have control mechanisms to prevent the
pumps form running dry.
h. Automatically starting the pumps when the water level is back to normal.
i. In case of pump failure due to motor overload, the standby pump is switched on
automatically. Alarm signal is displayed on the LCD Display unit and alarm lights
are activated.
j. Functions to limit the no. of start/stop of pumps per hour.
k. The system control panel shall incorporate at least the following components:
LCD Display

2.4 OPERATIONS
Local control panel shall perform the operation as follows:
i. Auto mode
The desired delivery pressure within the range specified, shall be set at the duty
local control panel. The pressure transmitter shall detect the delivery pressure
continuously within 1 second and feedback to the microprocessor which will
PAGE - 991
control the variable speed drive frequency converter for speed control of the
duty pump.
When demand increases, the subsequent pumps in the system will be activated
to boost up the pressure. Ultimately the duty pump set shall be operated fully
automatically to maintain the delivery pressure constantly at the desired set
value.
ii. Manual Mode
The on/off function of the pumps shall be manually adjusted at the
microprocessor located at the local control panel.
PAGE - 992
