INTRODUCTION

This manual intends to provide guidance to the HPPWD engineers in their


functions of investigation, designs, estimation inspection and assurance of quality
of construction and maintenance. It helps in the vendor control and gradation of
contractors and is expected to aid in structured Quality Assurance activities of
HPPWD.
Bridge construction is dependent on several challenges, right from selection of the
terrain, soil conditions, materials, methods, type and design of construction to
supervision and assurance of quality in construction of new approach roads and
maintenance of the same after the area is acquired.
The enclosures would provide typical process flow of road construction, Quality
Assurance requirements, test plans for Quality checks of materials used in
construction and teats and test report Performa for presentation of test results.
The checklists are the Level III documents of an established Quality Management
System (QMS) as per ISO 9001:2008. The Quality Plan drawn up highlights on
the process controls necessary for product realization and improvements. It is
intended to help the internal auditors while carrying out audits of the implemented
QMS of HPPWD.
This document is an important adjunct to the Procedure Manual (Level II)
document and takes into consideration the existing practices and codal needs of
HPPWD. The formats to be used are the same as necessary for the QMS and the
departmental code.
For easy reference to the contents of the manual the following process has been
adopted:
BCM refers to Bridge Construction Manual.
TP refers to Test Plan
CL refers to various Check list for process control.
The test plans are identified as BCM/TP XX refers to the Serial No. of Test plan,
similarly BCM/CL XX refers to the Serial No. of checklist as applicable. The test
plan and checklist should be considered as work instructions necessary for
construction and maintenance of Bridge.
The typical tests and test Performa are given in separate chapters for the purpose
of guidance to the site engineer, quality control staff and also the contractors.

bridge. Choice is narrowed down to three/ four alternative sites. It also
includes gathering information on behaviour of river at sites by studying
available reports.
A detailed assessment of construction problems that can affect its
feasibility, cost and duration of construction.

QUALITY PLAN FOR BRIDGE / CROSS DRAIN

Background
Bridges are defined as structures, which provide passage over a gap without
closing the way beneath. They may be needed for passage of railways, roadways,
and footpaths and even for carriage of fluids. A good Bridge/Cross Drain has an
important bearing on the economy of a country. In the changing scenario of
globalization and economic liberalization, a great deal of emphasis is already laid
on development of infrastructure through construction of a dependable
Bridge/Cross Drain. Consequently, consistency in the quality of structure,
workmanship, reliability etc., have gained paramount importance. In line with this
need the document is prepared to provide guidelines for Quality Assurance of
Bridge/Cross Drains.

4.2.

Scope
These guidelines cover quality system for activities of Bridge/Cross Drain
construction. These include steps towards planning and investigation, design and
construction, Tendering, Corrective and preventive actions for NCs, etc.

QUALITY PROCESS FOR MAINTENANCE OF BRIDGES

The basic objective of a maintenance activity is to ensure safety and meeting


customer requirements. The Quality Assurance activities assure that the
maintenance activities are performed as per plans. Towards this, a calendar is
drawn up at the beginning of the year for both preventive and annual maintenance
of all assets- bridges. A typical maintenance plan is given below:

It includes following nature of works

6.2.

Upkeep of bridges (whitewashing, painting etc).


Upkeep of bridge Drainage system.
Upkeep of earth retaining structures.
Keeping the bridges in good condition (plastering, fittings, electricals).

Periodic Maintenance
Visual examination of the condition of bridges shall be carried out at least once in
six months. Regular preventive measures for any damages to approach roads,
corrosion and rusting, painting requirements, undesirable vegetation should be
carried out. A typical routine inspection Performa for maintenance of bridges is
given in (Annexure III).

6.3.

Special Repairs
It covers damages occurred due to unforeseen / natures calamity.
The process maintenance of Bridge needs a system approach to be followed
involving a series of sequential operations.
Detailed assessment of the present Bridge condition.
Diagnosis of the problem.
Selection of the most appropriate treatment.
This systematic approach enables a clear understanding of determination of
priorities more objectively and allotment of available resources where they are
most needed.
The first step in planning a maintenance operation is to know the existing bridge in
terms of physical condition, structural capacity, surface etc. The following data are
required to be collected. The various inputs are:

NON-CONFORMANCE (NC) AND CORRECTIVE ACTIONS


Typical NCs with Product: Concrete / Asphalt work

7.1.1. Non-Conformance with Strength Requirements


The specification strength/density for concrete /asphalt recognizes the
statistical possibility of cube failures and thus limits of means, standard
deviation and minimum value of strength are specified. The rejection criteria
are set out in the agreement.
In the event of cube/ density failures outside the provision of the contract then:
(a).

Approval of concreting/asphalting of similar works shall be withheld.

(b).

All aspects of concreting/asphalting shall be reviewed.

(c).

The causes of failure shall be identified and measures taken to remedy


the problem.

7.1.2. Non-Conformance Other than Strength or Finish


Issue of a letter stating the facts and confirming that the works are not
approved.
Approval to carry out concreting/asphalting of a similar nature shall be with
held.
The Contractor shall be asked for his proposals to rectify the non-compliance,
which may involve re-submission of materials, new trial mixes, revised method
statement.
7.1.3. Non-Conformance with Finishing Requirements
Where the required finish is not attained then:
(a).

Approval of similar work shall be withheld.

(b).

All aspects of work shall be reviewed.

(c).

The cause of poor finis shall be identified.

(d).

Revised specifications/instructions to avoid further recurrence of nonconformance shall be issued.
