• Schedule I Drawings
• Schedule J Project Completion Schedule
Objectives of Scrutiny
• To make sure of adequacy of
investigations.
• To Check the authenticity of the data.
• To verify the optimality of design and
estimation.
• To check the provisions made as per
the guidelines, codes and
specifications.
Important Factors for Scrutiny
• Selection of Alignment.
• Land Availability.
• Traffic Volume.
• Soil Characteristics.
• Design and Specification.
• CD works.
• Drawings.
Special Emphasis for Cost Effective Design
•
General Deficiencies (cont’d)
• Major deficiencies resulting in revision of estimate:
o Faulty assessment of requirement of land
acquisition, utility shifting, tree cutting resulting
in delay in project and cost escalation
o Change in scope of work due to inadequate survey
and investigation and variations such as:
Change in alignment
Number of structures to be constructed/rehabilitated
Change in classification of soil and rock
HFL having not been reported properly necessitating
raising
General Deficiencies (cont’d)
Incorrect ground level resulting in extra earth work
Inadequate soil investigation for ground improvement
Certain items of work not considered
Quantity of leveling course not estimated
o Not adopting current SOR
Deficiencies in the Design
• Inadequate investigations.
• Failure to check correlations in the soil properties.
• Inaccurate estimation of Design Parameters.
• Non adherence to the provisions of Manuals for Pavement
Component Design.
• In adequate Geometric Design.
• Failure to identify cost aberrations in the components.
• Inappropriate location and design of CD Works.
• Provisions beyond permissible as per guidelines.
• Deficiency in checking the Schedule of Rates, Maintenance
Cost.
• Failure to investigate alternate designs for optimality.
