traffic and other port activities. The work is to be carried out without causing any
obstruction or interference with the normal traffic from the inner side basin or from
outer channel vice-versa.
✓ It will select suitable dredger after examining the site and sea condition at Dhalmej
port with its equipment and bring at site of work only after prior approval from the EIC.
Selection of dredger / dredging equipment shall be done after ascertaining type of
material to be dredged, quantum of dredging work, water depth available, area to

 guidelines and references identify and encompass the working behaviours and safe
work practices that will be expected of all project management team members, the
client, vendors, contractors, sub- contractors and visitors engaged on the project. HSE
plan will identify the key areas affecting HSE within that scope of work and the work
environment and will promote HSE through safe design, rigorous risk management of
work methods and the work environment, education, encouragement and reward.

✓ Dredging Material: The dredge material consists of pieces of all type of soil, soft

✓ Level to Achieve
The dredging is to be done in such a manner so as to achieve required level (-1.5 mt)
w.r.t. Chart Datum from the existing levels. This dredging will be done strictly under
the supervision, direction and satisfaction of EIC considering site conditions and
topography of the Port. In order to commence this dredging work, suitable dredger
will be mobilized and deployed at works site in such a way that there will not be any
delay in dredging work. The contractor will mobilize the survey team at site at least
seven days prior to arrival at dredger so that joint pre-dredging survey can be done
and necessary guide marks, transits etc can be established before the dredger
arrives at site. All attached equipment, ancillaries of dredger such as work barrages,
helper barges, tugs, launches etc. and survey. Equipment such as survey tug,
launches, echo sounder, DGPS, text units, levels, level instruments, etc, including
manpower will be arranged and brought by the contractor at this own cost and risk

 ✓ Disposal of Dredge Materials: The material dredged shall be dumped in the Sea from
the dredging site is above 5 NM or as per the direction of EIC. The contractor shall
make all the arrangement of pontoons, anchor pontoons, barge as per requirement
etc. Before starting the disposal, the contractor has to ensure the leak proof
arrangement of the structure so that whatever dredge stuff is being disposed in the
section shall not come out of it in natural flow of water towards sea. For making such
arrangements whatever repairing or renewal or replacement of the section is required
it will be on account of contractor and DoF will not make any additional / extra
payment towards it. The location of the dumping ground is shown in the location /
layout drawing. The area to be dredged will jointly be surveyed and taken over by the
contractor before commencement of dredging and will be handed over to the
fisheries after it is dredged to the designed level. The Department shall pay to the
contractor for the actual quantity dredged per cum basis which will be calculated
based on Simpson rule based on pre and intermediate survey charts for running bill
and pre & post survey charts for final payment.

Concrete shall be done up to slab level as per approved drawing. Levels and dimensions
shall be checked as specified in the drawing before casting of plinth beam or grade slab.
Curing shall be done hessian cloth with water.

BACK FILLING, CONSOLIDATION AND COMPACTION

This process is done by filled with dredged material / normal soil in 150 mm layers filled
between the foundation and plinth beam with proper consolidation as per approved
drawing. Once footing is consolidated and column is raised up to required level,
compaction will be done by sprinkling water and plate compactor for preparing bed
surface free of undulation.

After casting of columns, formwork is started to cast the slab and beams followed by
reinforcement for beams and slab. Concealed electrical conduiting, openings for sleeves
shall be done as per approved electrical drawing. Shuttering oil will be applied and joints
in boards need to be leak free. Fan hooks will be placed in all required positions as per
drawings. The wooden cutout section also be left out to continue the wiring from slab
bottom and top after concreting. Reinforcement, levels and dimensions shall be checked
before casting the slab. Before starting concrete pour a check will be done to clear the
reinforcement free from unwanted debris and dust. Once all materials are cleared
concrete pour shall start, proper compaction shall be ensured by use of needle vibrator to
equally distribute concrete. Concrete shall be done up to slab level as per approved
drawing. Curing shall be done by using hessian cloth with water or by making water pool.
