superintending officer (S.O) or his representative (S.O.R) for his approval.
1.
2. Concrete mix design
3. Steel bar mill certificate
4. Detail Work Program
5. Reinforce concrete pile specification
6. piling set calculation
7. method statement for test pile and loading test
8. Quality control and Quality plan

Stage 2 : Construction Work Method statement
1. Prior to any excavation works and any other works related to external drainage system
contractor shall prepare and proceed with the drain alignment and invert level setting out.
2. Upon completion of the setting out, Request for inspection form shall be submitted to
superintending officer (S.O) or his Representative (S.O.R) to allow inspection being
conducted before any subsequent work start.
3. The excavation works can only start upon receipt of official acceptance for the setting out
and approval to proceed works with subsequent activity.The Official reply on the inspection
can be recorded in the submitted Request for inspection work or by any other
means preferred by S.O/S.O.R.
4. Excavation work shall be done using combination of manual Labour and machinery.
5. Upon completion of the excavation work, contractor once again shall submit to
S.O/S.O.R Request for Inspection form to enable inspection being conducted to confirm that
the invert level of the drain are as per requirement.
6. Contractor then proceed with the setting out of the pile location for the piling work upon
acceptance and approval to proceed with subsequent work from S.O/S.O.R.
7. When ever Contractor feel that the setting out for pile position have reach the numbers that
is practical for them to proceed with pile driving work, Contractor shall once again submit
the Request for Inspection to enable inspection being carry out by S.O/S.O.R for the pile
location setting out.
8. During the inspection and upon acceptance of the setting out by S.O/S.O.R, he

9. Contractor shall proceed with the first pile location that is the test pile location. There shall
be no further pile driven work being carried out before the result of the test pile and pile
loading test is approved and accepted by S.O/S.O.R . The Result MUST fulfil the design
requirement.
10. Once the test result is deem to be in compliance with the requirement and officially

pile being use for the permanent works.
12. There shall be no piling works being carried out with out supervision of S.O/S.O.R.
13. Upon completion of the piling work, Contractor then proceed with the structure work of the
drain.
14. the subsequent work are as follows;
preparation of pile head
laying of granular bedding
laying of the lean concrete
installation of the steel reinforcement for the drain
installation of the formwork
drain structure concreting work
Curing works for the concrete
removing the formwork
Inspection to the concreted drain to detect any minor and major defect
for immediate rectification work
Inspection for the final invert level as to verify the constructed drain invert level are as per
requirement.
15. Concreting work shall not being carried during raining day.

16. All inspection shall be conducted by S.O/S.O.R in the present of contractor.

17. Sample of concrete that being delivered to site shall be taken for every 5 cu.m delivered batch

Drainage Construction
Protecting the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries is one of our highest priorities. This activity helps us to
accomplish this goal by completing necessary drainage construction work on County-maintained
property, thereby controlling the flow of water and sediment into the bay. Work includes construction of
new drainage systems including inlets, pipes headwalls, and/or placement of outfall
protection. Occasionally, the work might also include replacement of major components of existing
drainage systems, such as catch basins or gabion baskets.

Requests for the resolution of drainage problems should be directed to the appropriate road district. Road
districts are open from 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. A supervisor will investigate your
concern and respond to you within one week (one day if it is a hazard) to advise you of a schedule for any
needed work.
