4. Waterproofing treatment of Pump house/ Under ground structure. 4.1. 4.1.

1 Waterproofing treatment on horizontal surface: Surface Preparation Preparing surface of lean concrete/ leveling course dust-free etc. The waterproofing over the lean concrete/ leveling course should be roughened when the lean concrete is still green. In case the surface is not made rough in the initial stages it-self i.e. before the lean concrete is set, the work of waterproofing should not be permitted. Application of First layer cement with chemicals slurry Providing and laying first layer of cement slurry 0.375 kg./sq.m mixed with Supercrete- SB/ Chembond/ Warrior- W-4 (IS : 13435, Part-3) @0.250 kg./sq. by brush. Application of Second layer cement with chemicals slurry. (i) The second layer shall be applied over the first layer after a gap of 4 hours. (ii) The slurry of chemicals with cement for application of second layer shall be prepared and the application shall be exactly the same as described in clause 4.1.2. Application of protective layer (Coat) Providing 20 mm thick cement plaster with ratio of (1 blended gray cement : 4 coarse sand) first backing coat of 12 mm and second coat of 8 mm thick mixed with Doncrete- RMW/ Chembond- Mix/ Warrior- I (IS: 2645) @150ml Per bag of cement. Injection grouting in Raft/ RCC floor: (i) Placing and fixing the nozzle by drilling machine but never use PVC nozzle for this work. Minimum DIA of nozzle 15mm and maximum 20mm which shall be provided on a regular interval not exceeding 1.0 M, including the construction joints. (ii) Injection of Don Grout- ADD/ Chemgrout/ Warrior-W-5 (Polymer based on shrinkage high strength grout) admixed with cement through nozzles under pressure by pump @ 200 gm per bag of cement. (iii) Sealing the nozzle after grouting with polymer product mixed with cement. Waterproofing treatment on the vertical surface. Preparing the surface and providing ancillary arrangements:(i) The surface of structure to be treated shall be roughened properly either by raking joints or by hacking the cement concrete surface with a specially made hacking tool. Just after removing of shuttering. (ii) If any reason the above system not possible to use properly on alternative method to make the surface rough and dust-free is providing spatter key or wire brush. (iii) It should be very clear under stood that the vertical surface waterproofing treatment either from in inside or outside shall be undertaken only when the entire work is structure complete. (iv) For doing the waterproofing treatment all-round scaffolding shall be eructed. conti.

Application of Second layer. (i) The second layer shall be applied over the first layer after a gap of 4 hours. (ii) The slurry of chemicals with cement for application of second layer shall be prepared and the application shall be exactly the same as for first layer detailed in clause 4.2.3. Application of protective layer (Coat) Providing 20 mm thick cement plaster with ratio of (1 Blended gray Cement : 4 Coarse sand) first backing coat of 12 mm and second coat of 8 mm thick mixed with Doncrete- RMW/ Chembond- MIX/ Warrior- I (IS: 2645) @150ml per bag of cement. Curing and Testing The exposed face of the water proofing course shall be kept wet for 14 days. No back filling shall be done before expiry of 14 days from the date of completing the waterproofing course from outside. If waterproofing coarse shall be done from inside, scaffolding shall be removed and waterproofing coarse shall be kept 14 days. Measurement Length, width/ height shall be measured along the finished surface to a cm and the area shall be worked out correct to nearest 0.01 sq.m. Rate The rate shall include the cost of all labours and materials etc. 1.The waterproofing work to be carried out by specialized agencies. 2. The eligibility of waterproofing agencies defined by Chief Engineer, Level I (Building), U.P.P.W.D. vide letter No. 781/CAMP/Chief Engineer (Building), Dated: 30-10-2008.
