The vibrator needle size should normally be 62 mm dia, however the size shall be
restricted to 37 mm dia for sections wherein the use of 62 mm dia needle size
vibrators are not amenable to use. Standby vibrator units shall be maintained on top
of the working deck at all times during the slipforming operation
The vibrator poker shall only be lowered into the concrete to a depth corresponding
to the height of the last placed layer of concrete.
In case of continuance of concrete after a stoppage and before the form work for the
following pour starts the horizontal surface of the chimney shell shall be chipped,
cleaned and washed with water. When the form work is complete, the surface shall
be cleaned and washed with compressed air and water jet.
To achieve good bond between the foundation and the first lift of the shell, or at
horizontal joints caused by interruptions to sliding, an initial 50 mm layer of high
strength cement grout with 1:2 cement sand shall be placed. During the first pouring,
when the forms are empty, vibration should be avoided or carried out with utmost
care in order to prevent bending of the yokes. The horizontal construction joints when
permitted shall be so arranged and made that they are regular and neat.
The slipping rate of the forms shall be such that the concrete, when exposed has
already achieved enough strength to support the vertical pressure from the concrete
still in the forms as well as to withstand lateral pressure caused by wind, inclination of
walls, etc. The minimum compressive strength of concrete immediately below the
bottom of the form panel shall under no circumstances be less than 15 kg/sq.cm.
It shall be ensured that no dragging of concrete occurs with the upward movement of
the slip-form. Twisting in the horizontal plane of slip-form assembly and tilting in the
vertical plane of the slip-form assembly shall not be permitted. In case of such
occurrences, the Contractor shall rectify the same to the satisfaction of the Engineer
at no extra cost.
12.3.3 Chimney Foundation
The chimney shall have a suitable foundation system depending upon soil

of them over his foundation.
The CONTRACTOR shall include in his lumpsum price, the construction of
these supporting pedestals complete in all respects. Also the CONTRACTOR
if required shall supply and use templates to hold any anchor bolts for ID duct
supports on foundation.
12.3.4 Chimney Shell

The Chimney shell shall be constructed using slip-form shuttering and the norms,
precautionary and remedial measures with respect to the rates of sliding, delay in
sliding, discontinuous (of stop start) sliding, curing, protection, finishing,providing for
opening and embedment and maintaining true verticality shall be strictly adhered to.
Vertical joints shall not be permitted in the chimney shell and horizontal construction
joints when unavoidable and occurrence of which has been as defined elsewhere in
this specification shall be maintained at approximately uniform spacing throughout
the height of the chimney as approved by the Engineer.
During the first pouring, when the forms are empty, vibration should be avoided or
carried out with utmost care in order to prevent bending of the yokes.To achieve
good bond between the foundation and the first lift of the shell, or at horizontal joints
caused by interruptions to sliding, an initial layer of rich mix cement/sand slurry of 1:1
proportion shall be placed
Small openings and pockets less than 600 x 300 mm can be formed by inserting
blocks. Larger openings shall be formed using frames which shall be formed well
in advance of the sliding. All frames, blocks, bolts, tubes, etc., must be 12-15
mm narrower than the nominal wall thickness to allow for form taper. When
jacking rods unavoidably have to pass through openings more than 600 mm
high, the jacking rods must be braced laterally against buckling.
Special attention shall be given to proper curing of the chimney shell so that the shell
wall does not remain dry for long periods. Concrete curing shall be carried out either
by moist curing or by membrane curing to be decided by the Engineer based on the
site conditions.
If the ENGINEER so requires, the CONTRACTOR shall make immediate
arrangements, through an approved agency, to undertake ultrasonic tests to prove
the quality of concrete. The quality of concrete shall be considered as satisfactory if it
Subject
Doc.No.

Both internal and external hanging walkways, safety netting and adequate access
ladders shall be provided below the level of the shutter to allow for inspection, curing
and finishing of the shell. The slip-form shuttering shall have independent controls to
counteract any tendency of the structure to travel out of plumb or to skew, twist rock
or float.
12.3.6 Workmanship
The contractor shall provide all necessary standby equipment for weigh-batching of
materials, mixing, fixing, finishing, placing and vibrating of concrete and has to
ensure that all the materials are stockpiled on site in sufficient quantities for the site
to proceed uninterrupted. When sliding, the Contractor has to take all necessary
steps to ensure that the slide proceeds in continuous uninterrupted operation,
stopping only for the planned halts, or when instructed by Owner/Engineer.
If a slip-form has to stop due to bad weather, plant breakdown, or reasons to
aforesaid, the form must continue to be lifted until stage is reached when concrete
will no longer form a bond to the form panels, normally achieved when 20 to 25 cms
of concrete is still left in the forms. Before recommencement the form panels must be
cleaned. The first layer should have on overdose of cement.
The Contractor shall ensure that the rate of movement of sliding formworks is such
that the concrete at the bottom of the sliding formwork should have attained sufficient
strength so that it can support itself and all loads that may be imposed on it.
The initial setting and hardening of the concrete together with the chosen height of
the forms shall determine the sliding speed. No stoppage of duration more than 15
minutes will be permitted during sliding. The shutter shall be kept full of concrete as
much as possible with the surface of concrete maintained level.
The maximum rate of slide should be limited by the rate for which the forms are
designed. In addition both the maximum and minimum rates of slide must be
determined to meet changes in weather, concrete slump and workability and any
exigencies that may arise during a slide which cannot be predicted beforehand. An
Engineer experienced in slip-form construction with necessary supervisory staff of
the Contractor must be present on the deck at all times during the sliding operation.
The concrete shall not remain uncured for a period longer than 12 hours. For
temporary curing, a skirting of wet hessian sheathing attached to the slide may be
used. The hessian shall be wet at the bottom and shall be kept damp at all times.
All the structural members of the scaffold shall be designed for the following load
combinations.
i) Self weight plus super imposed loads (based on a minimum working load of 3.5
KN/ Sq.m. on the total working platform areas at various levels)
ii) Self weight plus 50% of the super imposed loads plus earthquake loads.
iii) Self weight plus super imposed loads plus wind loads.

12.3.7 Monitoring of slip-form

The Contractor shall measure as a minimum the following dimensions and positions
and shall record these immediately in tabular form and on graphs as frequently as
the work warrants
i) Progress height
ii) Center line in relation to the center at the base.
iii) Internal wall faces in relation to the concrete at the base
iv) Wall thickness
v) Twist
vi) Verticality with the help of users (once in 4 hours)
vii) Verticality of the chimney shall be checked at first height every morning to
minimize any differential thermal effects and reported to the Owner/Engineer and
also additionally as required to ensure that all specified tolerances are maintained.
viii) Curing of the exterior concrete face should be either spraying the surface with a
mist of water by having a perforated hose fixed to the underside of the outside
suspended scaffold or alternatively covering the freshly exposed concrete with a thin
layer of a curing compound.
12.3.8 Guide lines for slip-form method of construction:
Not withstanding what have been specified in earlier clauses, following guide
lines are being presented which should be kept in view by intending Tenderer,
while quoting for Slip-form method of construction:
1. Care to be taken to prevent dragging of concrete along with upward movement of
the shuttering. For this purpose following steps are advisable:
a) Shutter plates have to be smooth and clean. Before fixing them in position all
the surfaces which will be coming in contact with concrete to have a coat of
epoxy paint.
b) In areas where concrete thickness is 750 mm or more rate of pouring should
be such that minimum slipping of shuttering is 100 mm per hour.
c) Mix design should be so done that it will be self-lubricant at the contact face
of shutter and concrete to reduce friction.
d) Suitable cement of approved manufacturer (conforming to Indian Standard)
may be used for the purpose. An optimum ratio of coarse/fine aggregate
should be established to suit the purpose depending on availability of
aggregates.
e) Mix design also should be so done that it has a minimum slump of 50 mm at
the point where concrete is placed under an ambient temperature of around
40 C. This will also keep vibration by needle vibrators to required minimum.
Slump should not drop down to zero in less than 45 minutes. Suitable
retarding agent or plasticizer of approved manufacturer may be added in mix
to achieve this purpose. These admixtures to be properly identified by

preliminary tests both for performance and for compatibility with particular
type of cement proposed to be used.
Additional steps like spraying of water over the shutters and keeping down
the temperature of coarse aggregates by continuous spraying of water
over those may be resorted to if ambient temperature is more than 40C.
When use of ice is envisaged to keep the temperature of the concrete about
32C during extreme ambient conditions, the water cement ratio of the mix of
concrete will have to engineered prior accordingly.
2. Care must be taken to prevent twist, which predominantly occurs in the initial
stages because of low slipping rate, in the horizontal plane of Slip-form assembly. A
thorough check on this aspect must be kept at every 15 minutes interval. One person
should exclusively be assigned this work together with rectifying any defect.
3. Every endeavor has to be made to prevent any tilt from occurring in the shutter
assembly. To achieve these following steps need be taken:
a)Performance of jacks has to be closely observed and any defective one
needs immediate replacement. Difference in levels of opposite jacks at any instant of
time should not exceed 5 mm.
b) Loading on Slip-form truss/yokes has to be fairly equal.
c) Sleeve through which jacking rod passes has to be of sufficient length so that later
gets an uniform clearance and does not get any chance to tilt. Sleeve should have a
minimum wall thickness of 3.25 mm and should be such that jacking rod gets a
maximum clearance of 1 mm to 1.5 mm around.
4. For taper walled chimneys overlapping of shutters which are kept to effect the
tapering, needs careful attention otherwise these may be filled with concrete slurry.
5. In designing the mix, following aspects should be borne in mind:
a) Cement used should have an initial setting time of not less than 50 minutes and
preferably should have a specific surface around 3810 Sq.Cm. per gram. The use of
Portland pozzolana Cement (PPC) for the shell concrete shall be preferably avoided
in order that the shell quality is not affected by use of certain type of slip-form
shutters and workmanship prone to cause very porous or poor quality of concrete
shell.
b) Coarse and fine aggregates should be well graded and rounded aggregates offer
better performance in Slip-form technique. These help to keep down water/cement
ratio and also offer better lubrication between concrete and shutter surface. 40 mm
down size of coarse aggregates should preferably be used unless reinforcement
detailing calls for lesser size aggregates.
c) From the point of view of creep, shrinkage as well as initial setting property of
concrete, cement content should not preferably be more than 400 Kg. per Cu.m. of
concrete.
Subject
Doc.No.
Rev.
CHIMNEY
4150954000725
d) Minimum compressive strength (after 4 to 6 hours of mixing) of concrete

immediately below the shutter as slip-form proceeds should be between 0.1 and 0.2
Newton/ Sq.mm.
e) It is advisable to use cement and aggregates (coarse and fine) from a single
source during the entire operation of slip-form technique since once the system
starts, there might not be any time left for conducting trial mixes if the source of
procurement of cement changes.
6. In thin walled sections large diameter vibrator needles should not be used for
vibrating concrete. Unless specified otherwise Sizes of these needles should
preferably be restricted to 25 mm diameter and to 40 mm diameter - only in
exceptional cases. At least two nos. standby vibrator units should always be
maintained on top of working deck at all time during the entire period of slip-form
operation.
7. The interior and exterior surfaces of the shell shall be kept moist for 14 days after
exposure from the forms as the chimney construction progresses upwards. For
this purpose, circumferential perforated pipes shall be hung from immediately
below the forms and raised along with them.It is preferable to have membrane
curing compounds sprayed on fresh surfaces emerging out of shutter panels for
ensuring proper curing at great heights. In case such spraying is not envisaged
then elaborate arrangement has to be made for adequate supply of water both
on inside and outside vertical surfaces with spraying arrangement, necessary
length of pipelines and pump of adequate head to serve the purpose. It is
always advisable to have a stand-by pump for effective utilisation of the system.
8. If Slip-forming is carried out in summer, rate of slipping should be around 400 mm
per hour. If lesser value is contemplated appropriate retarders should be specified.
9. Exact number and capacity of jacks as well as spacing of yoke frames are to be
determined taking into account various loadings including self weight of the system,
dead and live loads on working and other platforms, horizontal load on formwork,
wind load etc.
It is desirable that jacking system, based on which the entire slip-form system works,
should consist of jacks 3 Tonne/6 Tonne capacity and a hydraulic pump with
necessary pipe connections.
Spacing of yoke legs should preferably be kept within 2 metres to prevent
overloading on jacks and consequent failure resulting in twist of the formwork.
Jacking rods should be of 25 mm diameter for 3 Tonne Jacks and 32 mm diameter
for 6 Tonne Jacks.
10. At least 30% spare jacks and jacking rods should be kept ready during the entire
operation. It is obligatory to maintain spare hydraulic pump along with a set of loose
pipes in perfect working condition on top of working deck.

11. In sections where thickness is 500 mm or more it is prudent to go in for two nos.
of jacks for each slip-form yoke.
12.For effective utility of this technique following areas need careful attentions
at the very conceptual stage:
a) Detailed quality assurance programme.
b) Advance Planning and preparations.
c) Arrangement for onsite supervision and adequate access facilities.
13. Construction methods including description and types of different equipment
proposed to be used, structural arrangement and analysis of the system, description
and type of different materials, planned interruptions, description and frequency of
various checks and tests for Slip-form technique as well as for material, method
of preparing, transporting and pouring of concrete, solution for probable defects
during slipping, sequence of operations during planned interruptions etc. should be
prepared beforehand by executing agency and to be approved by Owner before
starting the actual work. A going chart indicating as a minimum: the levels,
diameter, wall thickness, grade of concrete, reinforcement sizes and quantity,
openings, presence of dowel bars for corbels/platforms, presence of openings, pipe
sleeves and insert steels, planned stoppage etc., has to be prepared well in advance
by the contractor and discussed with the Engineer before the start of the slip form
operation.
14. Placing and binding of reinforcement is also a very critical item and needs special
attention. From practical considerations not more than two or three layers of
horizontal steel can be tied at a time and this causes a definite limitation in placement
of reinforcement.
Vertical reinforcements should be kept vertical by providing suitable holders within
the slip-form system.
15. It is desirable to have a break of at least one day for every two weeks of
continuous operation. Such break should be utilised for various maintenance
activities, removal of jack rods etc.
16. Numbers and locations of hoists for lifting concrete, reinforcement and other
materials have to be planned well in advance. Capacity of hoists should be such as
to match with hourly requirement of concrete and reinforcement. If felt necessary,
one hoist may be exclusively earmarked for transporting concrete. For movement of
personnel supervising the work, a separate hoist must be arranged for.
17. The system being operative round the clock, it is obligatory to have adequate
lighting arrangement both on various platform levels as well as on ground below.
Arrangement has to be made for facilitating continuous upward movement of the
entire system along with slip-form.

CHIMNEY
4150954000725
18. Winches for lifting men and material and mixers, if located within unsafe area
around chimney, should be protected by adequate shelter from possible damage.
19. Proper tele-communication system has to be established between the personnel
working on top of Chimney and control room below.
20. A small laboratory should be maintained at site for testing different materials like
cement, coarse and fine aggregates. A cube testing machine may also be installed
at site for getting quick feedback results. Apart from using plumb bobs, level and
Theodolite instruments for survey purpose, arrangement should also be kept for
lasers.
21. In case of interruption in the course of slipping of formwork following measures
should be taken:
a) Provision of a key and additional reinforcement at the junction of new and old
concrete.
b) Slip-form system should be brought up freely to have a minimum overlap of 100
mm or so over previously cast concrete.
c) Washing of old concrete surface with compressed air and water jet and thereafter
pouring a layer of neat cement grout.
d) Clearing of shuttering panels of loose materials, concrete etc. by compressed air
and applying a coat of epoxy paint, if felt necessary by Owner.
e) Neatly finishing the interface of old or new concrete as soon as it comes out of
shutter panel.
22. It is preferable to suspend the construction work under high wind condition.
23. It is of utmost importance that for effective implementation of this system an
Engineer fully conversant with Slip-form technique with enough experience in
planning and control of formwork should be in overall command of the site and he
should be ably supported by well trained mid level supervisory staff, skilled workers
and operators made available round the clock during slip for forming process.
24. Operation of slip-form method of construction is a continuous one and it demands
continuous/intermediate inspection of accuracies in line, level, dimensions and
position and immediate rectification of any noticed deviation. All these ask for
personnel of high quality having constant vigilance over the construction activity.
12.3.9 SAFETY :
While all the activities in effective implementation of the work needs utmost care
keeping safety of men and material in mind it is obligatory that all activities should be
carried out under the guidance of a qualified and trained safety engineer.

If the sequence of work recommended by the ENGINEER so requires that the

Bidder shall have to carry out work simultaneously at different levels, the Bidder
shall provide all safety measures required to ensure the safety of the personnel
working at lower levels.
The CONTRACTOR shall take a comprehensive insurance policy including third
party risks at his own cost before start of the work. The OWNER shall not make any
such payments.

sudden power failure. Emergency standby generator must be kept ready during
the entire period of slip-form method of construction.
g) Emergency vehicles, first aid facilities must be kept ready during the entire period
of work.
12.3.10ExpertSupervision
Care must be taken to prevent twist, which predominantly occurs in the initial stages
because of low slipping rate, in the horizontal plane of Slip-form assembly. A
thorough check on this aspect must be kept at every 15 minutes interval. The
Contractor shall have supervisors in attendance at all times while sliding is in
progress. Such supervisors shall be experienced in the control of slides, twist and
rectify any defects. They shall be approved by the Engineer.

4.4.0 GradesandProportioning
Any grade of concrete less than M35 but not less than M25 and designated in Indian
Standard or as specified otherwise in approved drawings shall be used. Design mix
concrete shall be adopted for all RCC works. While designing the mix, the strength,
durability, minimum cement content, maximum water ratio allowed and workability
necessary for the job by most economical use of the various ingredients shall be
considered by the CONTRACTOR. The mix design shall be verified by carrying out
preliminarytest.
The water cement ratio, coarse aggregates and grading for each mix shall be
predetermined from the results of cube tests of trial mixes. The mix proportions
determinedthusshallbefollowedatsiteandshallinnowayrelievetheCONTRACTOR
of his responsibility as regards the prescribed strength mix. The mix proportions,
however,shall be revisedif the results ofthe cubetests during theconstruction show
consistently lower than the prescribed one. No extra claim will be entertained due to
such changes in mix designs, as the CONTRACTOR will be responsible to produce the

2.1.1 Disturbed Samples

Disturbed representative samples were collected, logged, labelled and placed in polythene bags.
2.1.2 Undisturbed Samples

Undisturbed soil samples are collected in 100 mm diameter thin walled samplers (Shelby tube).
The sampler used for the sampling had smooth surface and appropriate area ratio and cutting
edge angle thereby minimizing disturbance during sampling.
2.1.3
Standard Penetration Test:
The standard penetration tests are conducted in bore as per IS: 2131: 1981 (Reaffirmed 1987).
The split spoon sampler resting on the bottom of bore hole is allowed to sink under its own
weight, then the split spoon sampler is seated 15 cm with the blows of hammer falling through
750mm. The driving assembly consists of a driving head and a 63.5 kg weight. It is ensured that
the energy of the falling weight is not reduced by friction between the drive weight and the guides
or between ropes. The rods to which the sampler is attached for driving are straight, tightly
coupled and straight in alignment. Thereafter the split spoon sampler is further driven by 30cm.
The number of blows required to drive each 15cm penetration is recorded. The first 15cm of
drive considered as seating drive. The total blows required for the second and third 15cm
penetration is termed as a penetration resistance - N value. Result of test was given in table
no. 1/1 to 1/7 of report.
2.1.4
Method of Sampling in soil:
Sampler is coupled together with a sampler head to form a sampling assembly. The sampler
head provide a non-flexible connection between the sampling tube and the drill rods. Vent holes
are provided in the sampler head to allow escape of water from the top of sampler tube during
penetration. The sampling tubes are made free from dust and rust. Coating of oil is applied on
both sides to obtain the undisturbed samples in best possible manner.
The sampler is then lowered inside the bore hole on a string of rods and driven to a predetermined level. On completion of driving the sampler is first rotated within the borehole
to shear the soil sample at bottom and then pulled out. Upon removal of the sampling tubes,
the length of sample in the tube is recorded. The disturbed material in the upper end of the tube,
if any, is completely removed before sealing.
The soil at the lower end of the tube is trimmed to a distance of about 10 to 20 mm. After
cleaning and inserting an impervious disc at each end, both ends are sealed. The empty space
in the sampler, if any, is filled with the moist soil, and the ends covered with tight wrapper. The
identification mark is then made on each sample.

LABORATORY WORK:
The laboratory tests on soil samples were started immediately after the receipt of the same in the
laboratory. All laboratory tests are carried out as per the respective Indian Standards. The results
of the laboratory tests were performed on various soil samples are presented in the form of Table
No.: 5/1 to 5/11 and drawing part end of report.

As the subsoil strata was Very Hard Consistency (N>50), the UDS sample collected could not
be considered as representative of the insitu state. Hence the empirical value based on hard
clayey is used for foundation design, Cu = 30 t/m2 (Ref. Pile foundation by Tomlinson).
For sandy strata according to corrected N value angle of friction resistance is taken as per
Appendix (properties of materials) of Pile foundation by Tomlinson.

PILE LOAD CARRYING CAPACITY:
As per IS : 2911 (part I/sec 1) :

For General Shear Failure Criteria :
Qsafe= (Qs + Qb)/ FOS
Where,
Qs = Capacity in Skin Friction. For soil it is given as
= (Qsi) for all layers= 1 to n
Qsi = [( C L )i + (q Ks Tan L)i ] x 3.14 x D
= adhesion factor
C = Cohesive
L = length of pile
qi = Effective Overburden at the mid depth of (i) the layer.
Ks = Co-eff. Of Earth Pressure = 1.0 to 1.5 (30 to 40) (For bored pile)
(As per note Annex B -1.3)
= Angle of Wall Friction at the interface of pile and soil, taken as
D = Pile Diameter
Qb = Capacity in Base Resistance
= [(q x Nq) ] x 0.785 x D2 (For non-cohesive soil)
q = Eff. Overburden at base, Subjected to a max. Value at depth = 20 x pile dia.
Nq = Bearing Capacity factors as per IS-2911 part-1, Section-2, (For bored pile)
Qb= Cu x Nc x 0.785 x D2 (For cohesive soil)
Nc = Bearing capacity factor = 9
As the subsoil strata was Very Hard Consistency (N>50), the UDS sample collected could not
be considered as representative of the insitu state. Hence the empirical value based on hard
clayey is used for foundation design, Cu = 30 t/m2 (Ref. Pile foundation by Tomlinson).
For sandy strata according to corrected N value angle of friction resistance is taken as per
Appendix (properties of materials) of Pile foundation by Tomlinson.
The Uplift capacity of the Pile is considered to be the allowable capacity in Skin Friction only. For
sandy soil for uplift resistance two-third of the calculated resistance under downward loading
considered (Ref. Foundation Design Manual by N. V. Nayak clause 3.5.9).
Typical calculation of all boreholes is given in table 4/1 to 4/6 of report.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATION:
1. Soil Investigation of 70 MW Power Plant at Kalatalav, Bhavnagar is found to consist of very

soft to soft silty clay followed by top thin layer of filled up soil or silty sand followed by medium
stiff to stiff silty clay underlain by very stiff to hard silty clay having medium to low plasticity
upto 30.0m termination depth below EGL.
The Ground water table was encountered in the boreholes at 1.60m to 1.90m depth below
EGL at time of investigation. (December - 2015)
2. The load carrying capacities of cast in situ bored pile of 0.45m to 0.75m diameter according
to location of boreholes is estimated and reported vide para 8.0 of report. The capacity based
on static formula. This capacity is subjected to verification by pile load test as per IS: 2911
(Part IV).
3. The clayey soil is having moderate to high swelling potential hence it is not suitable to use for
back/plinth filling purpose.
4. The flooring shall not be directly placed on top expansive soil layer. Flooring shall be laid
after placing compact sand gravel bedding of @ 0.40m thick. The site shall be kept free from
stagnant rain water by providing sufficient surface drainage.
5. The proposed project site is situated in seismic zone III and zone factor is 0.16 as per IS:
1893 (part I) : 2002.
6. The chemical analysis of water sample shows chloride is encountered along with sulphate
content in soil and water, ordinary Portland cement with C3A content from 5 to 8% shall be
desirable to be used in concrete, instead of sulphate resisting cement. Alternatively, Portland
slag cement conforming IS : 455 having more than 50% slag or a blend of Ordinary Portland
cement and slag may be used as per IS : 456: 2000 (table 4 Note 7).
7. The results of the laboratory tests are incorporated in the form of tables at the later part of the
report.
