DISMANTLING AND DEMOLISHING
TERMINOLOGY
(i) Dismantling: The term ‘Dismantling’ implies carefully separating the parts without damage and removing. This may consist of dismantling one or more parts of the building as specified or shown on the drawings.
(ii) Demolition: The term ‘Demolition’ implies breaking up. This shall consist of demolishing whole or part of work including all relevant items as specified or shown on the drawings.
1 GENERAL this chapter relates to buildings only.
1.1 Precautions
1.1.1 All materials obtained from dismantling or demolition shall be the property of the Government unless otherwise specified and shall be kept in safe custody until they are handed over to the Engineering-Charge/ authorized representative.
1.1.2 The demolition shall always be well planned before hand and shall generally be done in reverse order of the one in which the structure was constructed. The operations shall be got approved from the Engineer-in-Charge before starting the work. Due care shall be taken to maintain the safety measures prescribed in IS 4130.
1.1.3 Necessary propping, shoring and or under pinning shall be provided to ensure the safety of the adjoining work or property before dismantling and demolishing is taken up and the work shall be carried out in such a way that no damage is caused to the adjoining work or property. Wherever specified, temporary enclosures or partitions and necessary scaffolding with suitable double scaffolding and proper cloth covering shall also be provided, as directed by the Engineer-in-Charge.
1.1.4 Necessary precautions shall be taken to keep noise and dust nuisance to the minimum. All work needs to be done under the direction of Engineer-in-Charge. Helmets, goggle, safety belts etc. should be used whenever required and as directed by the Engineer-in-Charge. The demolition work shall be proceeded with in such a way that it causes the least damage and nuisance to the adjoining building and the public.
1.1.5 Dismantling shall be done in a systematic manner. All materials which are likely to be damaged by dropping from a height or by demolishing roofs, masonry etc. shall be carefully removed first. Chisels and cuters may be used carefully as directed. The dismantled articles shall be removed manually or otherwise, lowered to the ground (and not thrown) and then properly stacked as directed by the Engineer-in-Charge.
1.1.6 Where existing fixing is done by nails, screws, bolts, rivets, etc., dismantling shall be done by taking out the fixing with proper tools and not by tearing or ripping off.
1.1.7 Any serviceable material, obtained during dismantling or demolition, shall be separated out and stacked properly as directed by the Engineer-in-Charge within a lead of 50 metres. All unserviceable
materials, rubbish etc. shall be disposed off as directed by the Engineer-in-Charge.

the earthen structure and pouring into the mounds at several places, after, emulsion at the
rate of 4 litres per cubic meter of mound.
19.3.5 Soil Treatment
Treatment of pile caps, ground beams, columns, walls and basement excavations:
The bottom surface and the sides (to a height of 300 mm above concrete foundation level)
of the excavations for pile caps, ground beams, columns, walls and basements shall be treated
with the chemical at the rate of 5 litres per sq.m of surface area. After the concrete works are
above ground level, the back fill in immediate contact with the foundation structure shall be
treated at the rate of 7.5 litres per sq.m of the vertical surface of the sub- structure. If water
is used for ramming the earth fill the chemical treatment shall be carried out after ramming
operation is done by rodding the earth at 150 mm centres close to concrete surface and
spraying the chemical with the above dose. As earth is filled in layers the treatment shall be
carried out in similar stages. The chemical emulsion shall be directed towards the concrete or
masonry surfaces so that earth in contact with these surfaces is well treated with the
chemicals.

Where there is the provision of a damp proof course in the construction, it is located just
below the level of the filled earth. Although this acts as an effective barrier impervious to
termite entry the PCC surface should be treated at 5 litres per sqm immediately after the
course is laid and the concrete is green.
Where there is no provision for a DPC, the top surface of the masonry course just below the
level of plinth filling mentioned above should be soaked with the chemical emulsion at the
rate of 5 liters per sq. m. of the surface. The application should be carried out slowly to enable
the masonry surface to absorb the emulsion.
19.3.6 Treatment of Top surface of Plinth Filling
The top surface of the consolidated earth within plinth walls shall be treated with chemical
emulsion at the rate of 5 litres per sq. m of the surface before the sand bed or sub-grade is
laid. If the filled earth has been well rammed and the surface does not allow the emulsion
to seep through, 75mm deep holes at 150 mm centres shall be made with 12 mm diameter
rod to facilitate saturation of the soil with chemical emulsion.
19.3.7 Treatment at junction of walls and floor
Rodding shall be carried out along the junction of walls and earth filling at 150mm centres at
a level slightly below the DPC or the chemical barrier described above. Emulsion shall be
sprayed along the wall junction at 7.5 litre per square meter of the vertical wall or column
surface so that it mixes with the soil and seeps to the DPC level or chemical barrier thus
establishing continuity of the anti-termite layer. The disturbed earth is then to be tamped back
into place.
19.3.8 Treatment of soil along external perimeter
The earth around the external perimeter of the building up to a depth of 300 cm shall be
treated at the rate of 7.5 litres per square meter of the vertical surfaces. To facilitate this
treatment the soil shall be rodded at 150mm centres to a depth of approximately 300 to break
up the soil.
In the event of filling being more than 300 mm, the external perimeter treatment shall extend
to full depth of filling.
19.3.9 Treatment of soil surrounding pipes, wastes and conduits
When pipes and conduits enter the soil inside the area of the foundation, the soil surrounding
the points of entry and exit shall be loosened around each such pipe, waster or conduits for a
distance of 150 mm, and up to a depth of 75 mm before the treatment is commenced.
19.3.10 Spraying Equipment
A pressure pump shall be used to carry out spraying operations to facilitate uniform spraying
and penetration of chemical into the earth.
19.3.11 Free Service Guarantee
The Contractor shall note that termite proofing work, is subject to a free service guarantee
from the date of completion of the treatment. The Contractor shall give an undertaking in
writing that during the 10 (ten) year guarantee period any infestation of subterranean termites
will be eradicated and necessary treatment carried out to prevent re-infestation, free of cost
to the Employer.
Contractors must ensure that the work is done through a professional pest control operator
who is a member of the National Pest Control Association of USA, Indian Pest Control
Association or other recognized professional body. A list of termite control jobs successfully
undertaken for Government Departments, Statutory bodies or large private organizations
are to be provided to prove that they are capable of handling anti-termite work.

account of safety and surface finish. The formwork shall be sufficiently rigid and tight to
prevent loss of grout or mortar from the fresh concrete.
Formwork shall be designed to withstand the worst combination of self weight, reinforcement
weight, wet concrete weight, concrete pressure, construction and wind loads together with
dynamic effect caused by placing, vibrating and compacting the concrete. Forms shall be
designed and constructed to maintain rigidity throughout the placing, ramming, vibration and
setting of the concrete to the required shape, position and level and specified class of finish
within the allowable tolerances.
All joints shall be sufficiently tight to prevent leakage of grout. If movement or deflection of the
formwork or loss of grout occurs, the damaged concrete supported by such formwork shall be
removed and the concrete re-cast so that the required finish is obtained. Formwork and its
supports should be designed to withstand the worst combinations of self-weight, reinforcement
and wet concrete weights, concrete pressure, construction and wind loads. Due regard shall be
taken to the type of mix when considering the design pressure on the formwork. The formwork
shall be pre-cambered by an amount equal to the expected maximum deflection shall be as
shown on the drawings.
If timber forms are used they shall be of sound, well-seasoned timber free from loose knots.
The forms shall be faced to give the specified class of finish for the structures. The formed
surfaces of exposed concrete shall be smooth, true and free from all irregularities.
For below ground concrete except against existing structures, rough formwork, steel pans etc.,
provided all joints prevent the loss of grout.
The formwork shall be designed and constructed to the shapes, lines and dimensions shown on
the drawings within the tolerances given below:
a) Deviation from specified dimensions of - 6 mm
cross section of columns and beams + 12 mm
b) Deviation from dimensions of footings (See Note)
Dimensions in plan - 12 mm + 50 mm
Eccentricity 0.02 times the width of the footing in the
direction of deviation but not more than
50 mm.
Thickness +0.05 x specified thickness
c) Elevation below ground + / - 15 mm
d) Elevation above ground + / - 6 mm
e) Plumb alignment for walls and columns +/-6mm in 3m or +/-12 mm in12 m f) Straightness or bow (in plan) for walls +/-6mm in 3m or +/-12 mm in12 m
NOTE:
The above tolerances apply to concrete dimensions only, not to positioning of vertical
reinforcing steel or dowels.
The formwork shall be capable of being dismantled and removed from the cast concrete
without shock, disturbance or damage. The arrangement shall be such that the soffit forms
properly supported on props, can be retained in position for such period as may be required
by maturing conditions or specifications.
6.1 Cleaning and Treatment of Forms
All rubbish shall be removed from the interior of the forms before the concrete is placed. The
faces of the forms in contact with the concrete shall be clean and treated with a suitable
release agent, where applicable. Release agent shall be applied so as to provide a thin uniform
coating to the forms without contaminating the reinforcement.
6.2 Striking of Form work
In normal circumstances where Ordinary Portland Cement is used, forms shall generally be
removed after the expiry of the following periods:

to safely carry the dead load of the slab, beam or arch, together with any live load likely to
occur during curing or further construction.
Sleeves for through bolts shall not be provided in formwork for liquid retaining structures as
they are potential hazard for leakage. Special device shall be fabricated using two ordinary
M20 nuts separated by two numbers 10 mm rounds welded to opposite flat side of the nuts
or standard water stopper tie-rods (16 dia.) readily available in the market. Standard tie-rods
(16 dia.) with higher load carrying capacity, the required quantity/sqm for forming area will
reduce considerably ultimately reducing the no. of holes in walls.. The faces of the nuts will
have a compressible rubber bush-20 mm thick. The overall dimension of the assembly shall be
50 mm less than the designed thickness of the concrete. Adjusting bolt shall pass through
formwork and will lock into the nuts. While these bolts are tightened, the formwork will travel

shuttering such that finished surfaces shall be free of board or shutter marks. Upon removal
of formwork, surfaces of finished concrete shall be rubbed down with carborundum stone
where necessary to obtain a uniform and smooth appearance.
The finish shall be such as to require no filling of surface pitting, butt fins, surface discoloration
and other minor defects shall be remedied by approved methods.
Rendering of defective concrete as a means of making good will not be permitted except that,
in case of minor porosity on the surface, approval may be given for the surface to be treated
by rubbing down with a cement mortar of the same fine aggregate/cement ratio as the
concrete. The treatment shall occur immediately after removing the formwork. Both cement
and aggregate shall be from the same source as the concrete materials.
Concrete containing honeycombing, major air holes or similar defects shall be cut out and
replaced as directed. No repair shall be executed without approval.

from such ducts shall be drained out or removed with compressed air to prevent corrosion.
Any trace of oil if supplied to steel for preventing corrosion shall be removed before grouting.
The duct shall be removed before grouting. The duct shall be flushed with clean potable water
for cleaning as well as wetting the duct wall immediately before grouting. All the water should
be allowed to drain through lowest vent pipe or by passing compressed air through the duct.
All outlets points including the air vent opening shall be kept open before commencement of
grout injection.
The injection of grout shall be continuous sand shall not be interrupted. Grouting shall be done
from one end only through the opening in the anchorage system. Grout shall be allowed to
flow from vent openings until its consistency at exit is same as that of the grout injected. The
vent openings shall thereafter be firmly closed one after another in the direction of the flow.
Grouting shall be commenced initially with a low pressure of injection of upto 2 kg per sq.cm.
increasing it until the gout cones out of the openings. When all the openings have been closed
one after the other as described in the clause above, injection shall be
continued till the pressure for above one minute before closing the inlet pipe. Care shall be
taken not to rupture the closing the injection grout unnecessarily under high pressure. Under
no circumstances the pressure shall not be allowed to increase beyond 10kg /sq.cm.
Grout not used within 30 minutes of mixing shall be rejected.
All necessary precautions and procedure for grouting shall be followed as per recommended
practice for grouting of post tensioned cables in prestressed concrete works as given in
Appendix 2 of IRC 4S-1985.
8.0 PRESTRESSED / POST TENSION CONCRETE WORK
8.1 GENERAL
No separate specifications are needed for prestressed / Post tension concrete work so far as
concrete work so far as concrete and formwork are concerned. These have been already under.
However, special items like H.T. Steel tendons, anchors, stressing grouting etc. peculiar to pre-
stressing / Post tension are given hereinafter.
8.2 HIGH TENSILE STEEL
H.T. steel to be used in all pre-stressing work shall conform to relevant I.S. Specification listed in 1
of these specifications. Each consignment or batch of H.T. steel supplied at site shall be
accompanied by the manufacturer’s test certificate.
If so desired by the Design Engineer / PMC additional tests on sample of steel taken from the site
consignment shall be carried out by the Contractors at an approved laboratory and at contractors
own cost and the representatives of PMC shall be given necessary facilities to witness such tests.
The wire shall be stored in weather proof sheds on damp proof platforms at least 300mm above
ground level to avoid contamination with soil, ground water etc.
The H.T. steel before being incorporated in the works shall be free from loose rust, scales grease
and similar other deleterious matter liable to adversely affect its bond with concrete / grout. It
shall also be free of kinks, notches and other mechanical defects liable to adversely affect its
strength.
H.T. steel shall be supplied in straight length or in large diameter coil to lay out straight.
8.3 TOOLS AND TACKLES:
The contractor may be asked to procure his own stressing jacks, pumps, sheathing and such other
appurtenances as are necessary for the workmanlike execution of the work and as are prescribed
by the makers of the respective system. The Contractor is bound to supply the PMC all the pertinent
information for the pre-stressing system adopted by him. However the right to accept or reject
any system of pre-stressing, the sufficiency of other precautions, etc. lies with the PMC and his
decision shall be final and binding.
8.4 SHEATHING
In case of post – tensioned prestressed work all tendons shall be properly encased in galvanized
metal sheathing of proper diameter till the final stressing of the tendon is done. The sheathing shall
be strong enough to bear the cable weight or any other incidental loads and impacts applied during
construction. It should also be flexible enough to adopt smooth curvatures of the tendons.
The sheathing and the connection of the same with anchorages or other pieces of sheathing shall
be leakage – tight in order to avoid ingress of cement slurry inside the ducts during concreting and
leakage of grout during grouting. Suitable acceptance tests for achieving the same may be called for
by the Engineer. The thickness of metal strips forming sheathing shall not be less than 0.24 mm
for sheathing upto 48mm I.D. and 0.30mm for sheathing upto 60mm I.D. Higher thickness may be
specified for larger diameter. The density of galvanizing shall not be less than 35 gm / m2 on each
surface.
8.5 ANCHORAGES
The anchoring devices shall be such as to hold the pre-stressing tendons firmly and permanently
and be strong enough to resist in all respects, force equal to at least 92% of breaking strength of the
pre-stressing element in anchors. The minimum elongation of wires when tested for above should
not be less than 1.8%. The anchorages shall transfer effectively and distribute evenly the entire
force from the pre-stressing tendons to the concrete without inducing dangerous secondary
stresses. The anchorages shall be adequately protected against damage and corrosion by encasing
them in concrete.
The maximum permissible slip or take – up during the seating of anchorage shall be specified by the
manufacturer and this shall form part of performance specification for the anchorages accepted for
the works. This slip shall not be exceeded during the actual execution of work.
8.6 TENDONS
The steel wires shall be continuous over the entire length of tendon and joints shall not be
permitted. The tendons shall be carefully and accurately located in the exact position and profiles
and the method of fixing them shall be such that they are not displaced during or compaction of
concrete and during tensioning. Type of fixtures used for positioning of tendons shall be such as not
to give rise to friction greater than prescribed codal limits. The fixtures and the entire scheme of
positioning tendons will be duly approved by PMC>
8.7 STRESSING
After the concrete has reached the required strength as well as has achieved prescribed age,
stressing operation may be undertaken. The pre-stressing job shall be done under supervision of an
experienced supervisor approved by the PMC and in the presence of an authorized representative
of the PMC. The force in tendons shall be measured by means of calibrated and approved pressure
gauges attached to the tensioning apparatus as well as by measuring the extension of steel and
relating it to stress – strain curve as per IS : 1343. Variation upto a limit of 5% either for force or
elongation will be normally accepted. Variations beyond the above limits shall be reported to the
PMC.
The instructions entered on drawings shall be carefully followed. The Contractor shall forward 3
copies of the entire stressing and elongation data to the PMC in prescribed form. The data so
forwarded will bear signature, both pf representative of PMC and the Contractor’s supervisor
present during stressing. The data shall be true and faithful record of actual measurements at site.
All the equipment such as dial gauges etc. will be checked periodically and check certificates
obtained for record.
8.8 GROUTING
All the tendons will be fully grouted as early as practicable as and not later than 48 hours after they
are finally stressed unless otherwise permitted by the PMC.
The grouting holes shall be left in concrete at such places and in such manner as directed by PMC.
The cable ducts will be first cleaned by passing compressed air through them in order to see than
no obstructions to passage of grout exist. They will then be cleaned thoroughly by water after which
grouting will be started. The grout shall be made to the consistency of thick paste with water cement
ration not exceeding 0.60. After flushing the ducts thoroughly as indicated above, grout will be
injected under a pressure of 3.5 to 7 kg / cm2 from one end till it overflows at the other end of the
duct. Grouting shall be continued till all the water in the duct is expelled and the consistency of the
grout emerging at the exit and is the same as that of the grout being pumped in. The exit end will
then be plugged and grouting continued till pressure gauge consistently records the pressure of
grout being injected.
Necessary tests of consistency, blending and strength shall be carried out for finally deciding upon
the grout mix.
Regrouting will be done to fill up the space formed as a result of settlement of grout after minimum
24 hours.
TOLERANCE IN PRESTRESSING CABLES:
Prestressed concrete cables will be laid such that their profile is a smooth curve unless otherwise
specified.
The alignment tolerances shall be as under:-
Member with a depth of Tolerance in direction of depth‘d’ of
members

Note: - 1 The Presence of mica in the fine aggregate has been found to reduce
considerably the durability and compressive strength of concrete and further investigations are
underway to determine and extent of the deleterious effect of mica. It is advisable, therefore, to
investigate the mica content of fine aggregate and make suitable allowance for the possible
reduction in the strength of concrete mortar.
Note: - 2 The aggregate shall not contain harmful organic impurities (tested in accordance
with IS : 2386 [part – ii]) in sufficient quantities to affect adversely the strength or durability of
concrete. A fine aggregate which fails in the test for organic impurities may be used, provided
that, when tested for the effect of organic impurities on the strength of mortar, the relative
69
strength at 7 and 28 days, reported in accordance with 7 of IS : 2386 [ Part – VI] – 1963 is not
less than 95% percent.

NOTE – 2 Fine Aggregate complying with the requirements of any grading zone in this table is suitable for concrete but the quality of concrete produced will depend upon a number of factors including proportions.
NOTE – 3 Where concrete of high strength and good durability is required, fine aggregate conforming to any one of the four grading zones may be used, but the concrete mix should be properly designed. As the fine aggregate grading becomes progressively finer, the is, from Grading Zones I to IV, the ratio of fine aggregate to coarse aggregate should be progressively reduced. The most suitable fine to coarse ratio to be used for any particular mix will, however, depend upon the actual grading, particle shape and surface texture of both fine and coarse aggregates.
NOTE – 4 It is recommended that fine aggregate conforming to Grading Zone IV should not be used in reinforced concrete unless tests have been made to ascertain the suitability of proposed mix proportions.

3. Supersulphated cement given an acceptable life provided that concrete is dense and
prepared with a water cement ratio of 0.4 or less, in mineral acids, down to pH 3.5.
4. The cement contents given in col 6 of this table are the minimum recommended. For SO3
contents near the upper limit of any class, cement content above this minimum are advised.
5. For server conditions, such as thin section under hydrostatic pressure on one side only and
sections partly immersed, considerations should be given to a further reduction of water cement
ratio.
6. Portland slag cement conforming to IS 455 with slag content more then 50 percent exhibits
better sulphate resisting properties.
7. Where chloride is encountered along with sulphates in soil or ground water, ordinary
Portland cement with C3A content from 5 to 8 percent shall be desirable to be used in
concrete, instead of sulphate resisting cement. Alternatively, Portland slag cement conforming
to IS 455 having more then 50 percent slag or a blend of ordinary Portland cement and slag
may be used provided sufficient information is available on performance of blended cements
in these conditions.

NOTE – 1 This table applies only to concrete made with 20 mm aggregate complying with the requirement of IS : 383 – 1970* placed in near-neutral ground water of pH 6 to 9, containing naturally occurring sulphates but not contaminants, such as ammonium salts. For 40 mm aggregate the value may be reduced by about 15 percent and for 12.5 mm aggregate, the value may be increased by about 15 percent. Concrete prepared from ordinary Portland cement would not be recommended in acidic conditions (pH 6 or less). Super sulphated cement gives an acceptable life, in minerals acids, down to pH 3.5, provided that the concrete is dense and prepared with a water / cement ratio of 0.4 or less.
NOTE – 2 The cement contents given in class 2 are the minimum recommended. For SO3
contents near the upper limits of class 2, cement contents above these minimum are advised.
NOTE – 3 Where the total SO3 in Col. 2 exceeds 0.5 percent, then a 2:1 water extract may result in a lower site classification if much of the sulphate is present as low solubility calcium sulphate.
NOTE – 4 For severe conditions such as thin sections under hydrostatic pressure on one side only and sections partly immersed, considerations should be given to a further reduction of water-cement ratio, and if necessary an increase in the cement content to ensure the degree of workability needed for full compaction and thus minimum permeability.
NOTE – 5 Portland slag cement conforming to IS : 455 with slag content more than 50 percent exhibits better sulphate resisting properties.
NOTE – 6 Ordinary Portland cement with the additional requirement that C3 A content be not more than 5 percent and 2 C3 A + C4 AF (or its solid solution 4 Cao, Al2
O3, Fe2 O3 + 2CaO, Fe2 O3) be not more than 20 percent may be used in place of super sulphated cement.

4.1 Workmanship
Workmanship shall be of the highest quality for all phases of the work. Supervising
engineers, welding supervisors and welders shall be qualified in accordance with the
Standards and Codes designated. The Contractor shall not adopt any practice, which will
damage materials.
The whole of the structural steel fabrications shall be done in the Contractors workshop
unless specific approval has been obtained from the Engineer for the sub-contracting of
any part of the work prior to the placing of the sub-contract.
All steel shall be new and each member shall be free from any butt-welded or other form
of splice for the full length between joints shown in or indicated by the drawings unless
such splice shall have been shown in the approved shop drawings and/or approved in
writing.
Steel sizes shall be as indicated on the drawings. Under no circumstances can any other
member size or type be made without the written approval of the Consultant who will
consider only written application showing specified size and dimensions and required
substitute size and dimensions.
Clamps, magnets, holding devices or other setting up fixtures shall be used in assembling
structural members in order to avoid tack welding whenever practicable.
Finished members shall be free from kinks or bends. Shearing shall be accurately done,
and all portions of the work neatly finished. Corners shall be square and true, unless
91
otherwise shown on the drawings. Where shearing cannot make re-entrant cuts, a
rectangular punch may be used. Re-entrant cuts shall be filleted, unless otherwise
approved by the Consultant. Approved dies shall make bends, except for minor details, or
bending rolls. Where heating is required, precautions shall be taken to avoid overheating
the metal and it shall be allowed to cool in such a manner as not to destroy the original
properties of the metal. Hammer marks shall not be evident. Steel with welds will not be
accepted, except where welding is definitely specified, called for on the Drawings, or
otherwise approved. All bolts, nuts, and screws shall be tight. The ends of pipes, except
for hand railing, shall be reamed.

rectification is necessary, it shall be affected by cold working and applying pressure, but
not by hammering or any other method that will affect or injure the metal. Material with
kinks or bends shall be rejected.
4.3 Dimensional Tolerances for Structural Work
Dimensions shall be measured by means of an approved calibrated steel tape of the same
temperature as the structure at the time of measurement.
An allowable variation of 1 mm is permissible in the overall length of members with both ends
milled. Members without milled ends, which are to be assembled to other steel parts of the
structures, shall not deviate from the dimensions shown on the drawings by more than 1.8
mm for members 10 meters or less in length, and by not more than 3 mm for members over
10 meters in length.
The erection clearance for cleared ends of members connecting steel to steel should
preferably be not greater than 2.0 mm at each end. The erection clearance at ends of
beams without web cleats should be not more than 3 mm at each end, but where, for

b) Drilled or reamed holes shall be cylindrical and perpendicular to the surface. They shall
practicable reasons, greater clearance is necessary, suitably designed seating should be
provided.
4.4 Cutting
Cutting shall be affected by shearing, cropping, sawing or gas cutting and shall be
reasonably square and free from distortion with all burrs removed. If directed by the
Consultant the edges shall be ground afterwards.
For gas cutting high tensile steel, sufficient metal shall be left beyond the required profile
so that all metal that has been flame hardened cube removed later by machining. Except
where the material is subsequently joined by welding, no load- transmitting surface shall
be gas cut.
Plates in built-up members shall be end and edge planed, except where flats with square
edges are used. Plates specified to be planed, milled or chipped, shall be cut in the first
instance to such size as to allow 3 mm to be planed, milled or chipped, from the sides
and ends. Edges of gussets up to and including 8 mm in thickness may be sheared in a
machine, which can take the full side in one cut. Planning, milling or grinding shall prepare
edges of gussets of greater thickness.
Edge preparation for surfaces to be welded shall be carried out by grinding planning but
not shearing or cropping.
4.5 Drilling and Punching
a) Holes through more than one thickness of material for members, such as compound
stanchion and girder flanges shall be drilled after the members are assembled and tightly
clamped or bolted together. Punching may be permitted before assembly, provided the
holes are punched 3 mm less in diameter than the required size and reamed, after
assembly, to the full diameter. The thickness of material punched shall be not greater
than 16 mm.
93
h) All holes shall be free of burrs, fins and other defects
not be more than 1.5 mm larger than the specified diameter of bolts up to and
including 25 mm in diameter.
c) When holes are drilled in one operation through two or more separable parts, these
parts, when so specified by the Consultant, shall be separated after drilling and the burrs
removed.
d) Holes in connecting angles and plates, other than splices, roof members and light framing,
may be punched full size though material not over 13 mm thick, except where required
for close tolerance or barrel bolts.
e) Matching holes for bolts shall register with each other so that a gauge of 1.5 mm or 2.0
mm (as the case may be, depending on whether the diameter of the bolt is less than or
more than 25 mm) less in diameter than the diameter of the hole will pass freely though
the assembled members in the direction at right angle to such members. Finished holes
shall be not more than 1.5 mm or 2.0 mm (as the case may be) in diameter larger than
the diameter of the rivet or black bolt passing through them, unless otherwise specified
by the Consultant.
f) Holes for turned and fitted bolts shall be drilled to a diameter equal to the nominal
diameter of the shank or barrel subject to H8 tolerance specified in IS: 919-1959
Recommendations for Limits and Fits for Engineering. Preferably, parts to be connected
with close tolerance or barrel bolts shall be firmly held together by tacking bolts on
clamps and the holes drilled through all the thickness at one operation and subsequently
reamed to size. All holes not drilled through all thickness at one operation shall be drilled
to a smaller size and reamed out after assembly. Where this is not practicable, the parts
shall drilled and reamed separately through hard bushed steel jigs.
g) A gas cutting process shall not form holes for bolts.
94
Snug tightening shall be achieved by using a standard wrench to ensure intimate positive
i) No holes shall be drilled in structural members at locations other than those indicated on
the drawings unless approved in writing by the Consultant.

the threaded part of the bolt is exposed beyond the nut, after the nut has been tightened.
Bolts shall comply with IS: 281 and IS: 3757.
All bolts shall be fitted with one washer under the nut. Where a nut or bolt bears on an
inclined surface, a leveled washer of the correct shape shall be used between the surfaces.
Where necessary, washers shall be tapered or otherwise suitably shaped to give the
heads and nuts of bolts a satisfactory bearing.
Bevelled washers shall not be allowed to move out of their correct positions during fabrication
and erection. No connection shall be made with less than two bolts and both shall be not less
than 16 mm diameter, unless otherwise indicated on the drawing.
In all cases where the full bearing area of the bolt is to be developed, the bolt shall be
provided with a washer of sufficient thickness under the nut to avoid any threaded
portion of the bolt being within the thickness of the parts bolted together.

1. Ceiling plaster shall be completed before commencement of wall plaster.
2. Plastering shall be started from the top and worked down towards the floor. All putlog holes
shall be properly filled in advance of the plastering as the scaffolding is being taken
down. To ensure even thickness and a true surface, plaster about 15x15 cm shall be first applied,
horizontally and vertically, at not more than 2 m intervals over the entire surface
to serve as gauge. The surfaces of these gauged areas shall be truly in the plane of the finished
plaster surface. The mortar shall then be laid on the wall, between the gauges with trowel. The
mortar shall be applied in a uniform surface slightly more than the specified thickness and then
brought to a true surface by working a wooden straight edge reaching across the gauges, with
small upward and side ways movements at a time. Finally the surface shall be finished off true
with trowel or wooden float according as a smooth or a sandy granular texture is required.
Excessive trawling or over working the float shall be avoided. During this process a solution of
lime putty shall be applied on the surface to make the later workable.
3. All corners, arises, angles and junctions shall be truly vertical or horizontal as the case may be
and shall be carefully finished. Rounding or chamfering corners, arises, provision of grooves at

4. When suspending work at the end of the day, the plaster shall be left, cut clean to line both
horizontally and vertically. When recommencing the plastering, the edge of the old work shall
be scrapped cleaned and wetted with lime putty before plaster is applied to the adjacent areas,
to enable the two to properly joint together. Plastering work shall be closed at the end of the
day on the body of wall and not nearer than 15 cm to any corners or arises. It shall not be closed
on the body of the features such as plasters, bands and cornices, nor at the corners of arises.
Horizontal joints in plaster work shall not also occur on parapet tops and coping as these
invariably lead to leakage. No portion of the surface should be left out initially to be patched up
later on.
5. The surface of the under coat on which the punning is to be done shall be left rough. The
115
punning shall be applied, when the under coat is still green. The mortar for punning shall be
applied in a uniform layer slightly more than 3 mm thick between gauged pads, with which to
ensure an even and uniformly thick surface by frequent checking with a wooden straight edge.
It shall be finished to an even and smooth surface with trowels.
Neeru : A watertight tank may be constructed in which lime powder be poured. It should be
noted that the water be added to time and not vice versa. After putting water into lime it should
be properly and continuously shared to form uniform mixture. Lime be allowed to slake for a
period of not less than 3 days. The slaked lime will settle down, and water above be removed.
The slaked lime be screened through rough cotton so that pebbles, lumps are removed and only
fine slaked lime will be separated. The slaked lime be into lime grinder in which hemp at the rate
of 1 Kg/cum and fine screened sand at 0.05 cum of slaked lime be added. The mixture be grinded
at least for 200 rounds of mixture adding adequate water to form slurry. The lime such grinded
be taken to separate tank allowed to slake further for the period of 3 days. Thus paste of neeru
shall form. The neeru shall not be allowed to dry but shall be maintained wet in paste form.
Finish : The plaster shall be finished to a true level and plumb surface and to the proper degree
of smoothness as required. The work shall be tested frequently as the work proceeds with a true
straight edge not less than 2.5 m long and with plumb bobs. All horizontal lines and surfaces shall
be tested with a level and all jambs and corners with a plumb bob as the work proceeds.
Thickness : The thickness of the plaster specified shall be measured exclusive of the thickness
of key i.e. grooves or open joints in brick work. The average thickness of plaster shall not be
less than the specified thickness or 12mm. The minimum thickness over any portion of the
surface shall not be less than specified thickness by more than 3mm. The average thickness
should be regulated at the time of plastering by keeping suitable thickness of the gauges. Extra
thickness required in doubling behind rounding of corners at junction of wall or in plastering of
masonry cornices etc. shall not be paid for.
Curing: Curing shall be started 24 hours after finishing the plaster. The plaster shall be kept wet
for a period of seven days. During this period, it shall be suitably protected from all damages at
116
the contractor’s expenses by such means as the Engineer-in-charge may approve. The dates on
which the plastering is done shall be legibly marked on the various sections plastered so that
curing for the specified period thereafter can be watched.

CALCIUM SILICATE BOARD FLASE CEILING General Introduction
Calcium Silicate Board is manufactured from siliceous & calcareous materials reinforced with
fibers. The boards are made in a laminar process and then autoclaved to give a stable
crystalline structure. Of board can be easily decorated with most of the paints, wallpapers,
153
laminates, veneers etc. these boards are compatible with common building material,
galvanized steel and anodized aluminum.
Appearance:
The board has an off-white surface, which is suitable for all type of decoration. it is light weight
and offers the user the qualities of wood, as it can be cut ,planed, bent and drilled by ordinary
carpenters tool. It can be nailed or screwed easily.

Applications:
Calcium silicates Board have a wide range of applications. These can be used in new as well as
existing building as partitions, false ceiling, wall linings, beams & column encasements, tunnel
154
linings, and door, where is a danger of accidental water spoiling the surface. It is also used
where termite & fungus growth are of prime concern.
Cutting:
Score-and-snap:
Scoring is done with hard pointed tool on face side of the by positioning the straight edge along
the line of the cut and repeating the action to obtain adequate depth for a clean break. The
board is then snap upward to achieve break. The boards can also be cut with the carpenter’s
handsaw. The use of circular saw with carbide tipped blade is the most efficient way of getting
neat & clean cut with speed.
Beveling:
Calcium silicate Boards can be beveled easily with carpenter’s tools.
Planning:
The edge of the boards can be smoothened by using carpenters plainer
Bending:
6 mm thick boards can be bend to minimum 600 mm radius, to make curved lining i.e. curved
partitions, false ceiling and wall linings.
Decoration:
The surface of calcium silicate Boards can be decorated with most forms of paints, wallpapers,
soft or hard laminate and ceramic tiles, if required. The boards have an unsanded finish suitable
for semi gloss-acrylics or textured coatings. Before painting, remove any surface dirt grime or
other containments with a soft brush. Do not use water for cleaning and ensure that the surface
is dry before painting.
Fittings and Fixtures:
It is easy and simple to attach different hangings to calcium silicate Boards. Inclined nails can be
fixed to board for light material. For heavier materials, the fastening should be centered on
internal stud work, steel or wood frame behind board, fixed before boarding.
155
Handling and storage:
Calcium silicate Boards should be carried on edge preferably by two persons. The boards should
not be carried in flat position. The boards should be stacked horizontally on a flat surface under
covered area. Wooden pallets/battens, not more than 400 mm apart, can be used to keep the
boards away from the moisture from the ground the boards should be lifted, not dragged.
Protected the boards with heavy water proof covering if stored out side and shift them inside at
the earliest possible if the boards do get damp they should be dried by standing them at long
edge to allow for ventilation never install damp boards.
FEATURES
Non- combustibility:
Calcium silicate boards are non-combustible as per BS:476: part-4-1970
Fire Resistance:
Calcium silicate boards have class-1 surface spread of flame with ignitability as “p” not easily
ignitable hence can provide good fire resistance in the range of 30 minutes to 240 minutes
depending on the construction Design.
Sound insulation and absorption:
Calcium silicate boards help in reduction of sound transmission, because of its nature however
this can be enhanced by putting mineral wool in the cavity of the wall / partition and behind
the board in case of false ceiling perforated calcium silicate boards with non-woven cloth backing
can provide should absorption NRC-value .75 to .85.
Thermal Resistance:
Calcium silicate boards have “k” value of .15 w/mk hence can contribute to energy saving can
provide comfort to the occupants.
Asbestos Free:
Calcium silicate boards are free from asbestos fiber. These are made from minerals and treated
156
cellulose fibers.
Water Resistance:
Calcium silicate boards when immersed in water for 24 hours will loose its strength slightly but
it regains its full strength as soon as it is dry. Hence it is a water resistant boards it has no long-
term effects on the board or most of the decorated surfaces hence these can be used in high
humid areas and or where there is a risk of accident water coming in contact with the board.
Moulds Growth:
Calcium silicates boards are made from natural minerals and are free from mould growth.
Termite Resistance:
Calcium silicate boards are made of inorganic minerals and has stable crystalline structure. This
makes the boards termite resistant and the material will not contribute to fungus growth.
Screw / Nail Holding:
Calcium silicate boards have a good screw/ nail holding capacity they do not require any backing
frame to hang light weight objects like picture frames etc.
Strong & Durable:
The stable crystalline structure makes Calcium silicates boards strong and durable. The boards
are strong enough to take normal impacts. The boards neither degrade/deteriorate Physically
nor turn into powder. These are most suitable for pharmaceutical and hospital industries.
Dimensional stability
Calcium silicate board is cured in high-pressure steam autoclave, which causes an irreversible
chemical change. Thus providing high dimensional and chemical stability accompanied by low
alkalinity.
Light weight:
The boards are light weight therefore can be handled easily the dry density of Calcium silicates
157
board is 900 kg/m2
Easy workability:
Calcium silicate boards are very easy to work with. They can be cut and drilled with ordinary
carpenter’s tools. Sanding is also possible with conventional sandpapers.
Bending:
6 mm thick Calcium silicate Boards can be bent (minimum radius- 600 mm) to provide curved
surfaces. Boards will bend more easily, if bent across their long axis by marking the boards wet.
Light Reflection:
Undercoated boards, provide 75% light reflectance
Compatibility:
The board will not promote corrosion or saponification of paints or affect bituminous compound
these are compatible with common building materials. These may cause corrosion of unanodised
aluminum under humid conditions.
Feature Joints:
Square edge boards can provide featured joint. The boards with joints can be decorated with
mouldings and beadings available in the market they can also be faxed a groove, which can be
in different colours

2.5.2 VANDEX SUPER/SUPER WHITE
Waterproofing Slurry
In-depth waterproofing and protection
Permanent active
Applied to pressure or non-pressure concrete face
Approved for potable water contact
Grey or white
VANDEX SUPER and VANDEX SUPER WHITE are of a similar nature. Whereas VANDEX SUPER is based on grey Portland cement VANDEX SUPER WHITE uses white cement as binding agent. All technical information of VANDEX SUPER apply also for VANDEX SUPER WHITE except for colour, bulk density and setting time.
Product Description
182
VANDEX SUPER is a surface-applied material, which waterproofs and protects concrete in-
depth.
It consists of grey or white Portland cement, specially treated quartz sand and a compound of active chemicals. VANDEX SUPER is supplied in powder form in 25 kg bags and needs only to be mixed with water prior to application.
Areas of Application
VANDEX SUPER can be applied to all structurally sound concrete – new or old. It may be applied
to either the pressure or non-pressure concrete face (i.e. with or against water pressure).
VANDEX SUPER may be used in conjunction with VANDEX PREMIX (see separate data sheet).
Typical areas of application are:
Basement retaining walls
Swimming-pools
Concrete slabs (floor/roof/balcony, etc.)
Sewage treatment plants
Construction joints
Channels
Water retaining structures
Bridges, etc.
Properties
When VANDEX SUPER is applied to a concrete surface the active chemicals combine with the
free lime and moisture present in the capillary tract, to form insoluble crystalline complexes.
These crystals block the capillaries and minor shrinkage cracks in the concrete to prevent any
further water ingress (even under pressure). However, the Vandex layer will still allow the
passage of water vapour through the structure (i.e. the concrete will still be able to „breathe“).
In addition to waterproofing the structure, VANDEX SUPER protects concrete against sea water,
waste water, aggressive ground water and certain chemical solutions. VANDEX SUPER is
approved for use in contact with potable water, and is therefore suitable for the treatment of
water storage tanks, reservoirs, water towers, etc.
VANDEX SUPER and VANDEX SUPER WHITE are not decorative materials.
183
Surface Preparation
All concrete to be treated with VANDEX SUPER must be clean and have an „open“ capillary system. Remove laitance, dirt, grease, etc. by means of high pressure water jetting, wet sandblasting or wire brushing. Faulty concrete in the form of cracks, honeycombing, etc. must be chased out, treated with VANDEX SUPER and filled flush with VANDEX UNI MORTAR 1. Surfaces must be carefully prewatered prior to the Vandex application. The concrete surface must be damp but not wet.
Mixing
VANDEX SUPER is mechanically mixed with clean water to a consistency of thick oil paint.
Approximate mixing ratio is 0.8 parts of water to 2.0 parts of powder (by volume).
Mix only as much material as can be used within 20 minutes and stir mixture frequently. If the mixture starts to set do not add more water, simply restir to restore workability.
Application
Slurry consistency. Apply VANDEX SUPER in one or two coats according to specification by
masonry brush or appropriate power spray equipment. When two coats are specified apply the
second coat whilst the first coat is still „green“.
Dry powder consistency (for horizontal surfaces only). The specified amount of VANDEX SUPER
is distributed in powder form through a sieve and trowelled into the freshly placed concrete once
this has reached initial set.
Post treatment. The treated areas should be kept damp for a period of five days and must be
protected against direct sun, wind and frost, by covering with polythene sheeting, damp hessian
or similar.
Note:
Do not apply VANDEX SUPER at temperatures below + 5 °C.
VANDEX SUPER cannot be used as an additive to concrete or plasters. Consumption
Concrete surfaces to be backfilled. One coat of VANDEX SUPER at 0.75 kg/m2 followed by one
coat of VANDEX PREMIX at 1.0 kg/m2. Brush or spray applied.
Water retaining structures, internal concrete wall surfaces. Two coats of VANDEX SUPER each
at 0.75 kg/m2. Brush or spray applied.
Concrete slabs. VANDEX SUPER at 1.2 kg/m2 applied in one slurry coat to hardened concrete

The sensor barrier is equipped with two servo positioning drives (low energy drives with energy content <1.6 joules) along with tooth holding brake technology and is electrically controlled in both directions thus guaranteeing a particularly high level of personal safety. The passage area is monitored by a basic sensor system with a short design. It monitors the individual passages in both directions. This sensor system also monitors the swinging area and the blocking elements and acts as a protection device. In the event of a power failure, both directions may be freely accessed. Automatic reset upon resumption of power supply - the unit resets to its regular function without manual intervention The access area is secured immediately upon resumption of power supply. The unit can be locked in any position (Tooth Holding Brake Technology) and opens under load (personal safety in case of panic). In basic position, the unit is unlocked to minimize power consumption (standby 17 VA). Parameters can be set for unit behavior and each specific customer (e.g. starting behavior and passage speed).
Available operating modes: Open basic mode: The door leaves close automatically if someone passes through who is not authorized. If an authorized individual passes through, the door leaves stay open. Closed basic mode: The door leaves open automatically if the individual is authorized in the direction of passage and then close again. If passage is authorized, it is not possible for someone without authorization
416
to pass through from the opposite direction. If no one passes through the unit within an adjustable time after the release signal, the release is automatically deleted. In the event of a power failure, the swinging elements can be moved in both directions.

7.0 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION OF ASPIRATING SMOKE DETECTION SYSTEM
Aspiration system description
An aspirating smoke detector is offered which continuously takes air samples via a pipe network from a monitored room and feeds the samples to one or more smoke detectors. Airflow monitoring ensures that the sensor tube is continuously monitored for pipe breakage and sampling hole soiling.
The detection method should work under extreme ambient conditions conventional point detectors reach their limits. - Difficult to access areas such as false ceilings, false floors, high-rack warehouses. - In listed buildings or in aesthetically demanding indoor spaces where point detectors on the ceiling would disturb the décor. - In areas where very high sensitivity is required, e.g. data centers, server cabinets. - If filters are used, dirty areas can also be monitored.
The aspirating smoke detector should be a new generation active smoke detection system. It does not wait until the smoke rises but rather sucks it in. This means it responds much faster and is more sensitive to incipient fires than conventional solutions. In addition to soiling evaluation and pre-alarming, sensitivity of the detector can also be adjusted user-specifically. The system itself should detects the smallest glowing and smoldering fires and can be used practically anywhere.
The aspirating smoke detector should have two primary parts: 1 or 2 branchable sampling pipes with individual sampling holes and 1 or 2 small detection chambers. These contain 1 or 2 smoke sensors, a ventilator and the electronic evaluation circuit. The ventilator draws ambient air through the sampling points into the detection chamber(s) and feeds it to the smoke sensor. Smoke particles are registered immediately. If the threshold according to EN 54-20 is exceeded, an alarm is triggered.
