Temporary yard such as stockpile and fabrication yard for building work shall be prepared
within the site after soil improvement. Location and plan shall be considered to avoid traffic
and congestions during mobilization of materials, machines and obstruction to construction
during the course of different activities in the site.
It is necessary to set up a fabrication yard in order to carry out the fabrication of
Reinforcing bars, form work, steel frames and so on. And also, those fabricated ,cast,
assembled products will be temporarily stocked at the Stock yard. The yards will be graded
flat at the designated area and with adequate drainage.
Joint survey with the Engineers representative shall be carried out to establish control
points and confirm the coordinates and elevation prior to the commencement of the
construction works.
After confirming the coordinates and elevations of all the building location, survey location
for piling and excavation shall be carried out each stage of the works.
5.2.2

EARTH WORK

5.2.2.1 Excavation work :


Excavation shall be done in a safe and sequential manner on the basis of the prepared plan
drawings and in accordance with the instructions by the Engineer.
The excavation method is either machine or manual cut, and care is to be taken not to
disturb the soil below the supporting ground. If deep trenching needs shoring, proper lateral
sheeting and struts shall be provided for safety.
During excavation, drainage ditch shall be provided and sloping down to sump pit to
prevent flooding within the work area in case rain occurs. Earth excavation with sloped roof
and surface drainage to avoid scouring off part of excavation pit.
