ANNEXURE - F
RESISTANCE TO FLAME PROPAGATION TEST PROCEDURE
1.1 Samples of DWC HDPE Ducts shall be checked by applying a 1KW flame.
1.2 A sample of length 675 + 10 mm is mounted vertically in a
rectangular metal enclosure with one open face, as shown in Figure-3-2
in an area substantially free from draughts. The general arrangements is
shown in Figure-3
Mounting is by means of two metal clamps approximately 25mm wide spaced 550 + 10
mm apart and approximately equidistance from the ends of the sample.
A steel rod of 16 + 0.1mm is passed through the sample. It is rigidly and

independently mounted and clamped at upper end to maintain the sample in a
straight and vertical position. The means of mounting is such as not to obstruct
drops from falling onto the tissue paper.
A suitable piece of white pinewood board, approximately 10 mm thick, covered with

single layer of white tissue paper is positioned on the lower surface of the enclosure.
The assembly of sample, rod and clamping apparatus is mounted vertically in the
center of the enclosure, the upper extremity of the lower clamp being 500 + 10 mm
above the internal lower surface of the enclosure.
1.3 The burner is supported so that its axis is 45 + 2 0 to the vertical. The flame
is applied to the sample so that the distance from the top of the
burner tube to the sample measured along the axis of the flame is 100
+ 10 mm and the axis of the flame intersects with the surface of the
samples at a point 100 + 5 mm from the upper extremity of the lower
clamp, and so that the axis of the flame intersects with the axis of the
sample.
1.4 The test is carried out on three samples. The flame is applied to the

Page 173 of 289
CIN U40102GJ2003SGC042906
sample for the period specified in Table - 4 and is then removed.

During the application of the flame, it shall not be moved except to
remove it at the conclusion of the period of the test. After the
conclusion of the test and after any burning of the sample has ceased,
the surface of the sample is wiped clean by rubbing with a piece of
cloth soaked with water.
1.5 A
ll three samples shall pass the test. If the sample is not ignited by the
flame, it shall be deemed to have passed the test.
If the sample burns, or is consumed without burning, the sample shall be deemed
to have passed the test if after burning has ceased, and after the sample has been
wiped in accordance with 1.3 there is no evidence of burning of charring within 50
mm of the lower extremity of the upper and also within 50 mm of the upper
extremity of the lower clamp.
If the sample burns, it shall be deemed to have failed the test if combustion is still in
progress 30 seconds after removal of the flame.
If the tissue paper ignites, the sample shall be deemed to have failed the test. For the
parts of the same below the burner, the presence of molten material on the internal
or external surfaces shall not entail failure if the sample itself is not burned or
charred.
2.0 Compliance of DWC HDPE Duct fittings is checked by using the glow wire test IS:11000
(Part 2/Sec 1). The glow wire shall be applied once to each sample in the most
unfavourable position of its intended use, with the surface tested in vertical position,
at a temperature of 750oC. The sample is deemed to have passed this test if there is no
visible flame or sustained glowing or if flames or glowing extinguishes within 30s of the
removal of the glow wire.

ANTI RODENT TEST PROCEDURE:

The test against rodent may be conducted as per following procedures:
The ducts are to be laid underground in fields and also near urban or rural
settlements. Therefore they should be exposed to 3-4 most predominant rodent
species inhabiting these locations. The test rodent species may include the lesser
bandicoot rat, Bandicota bengalensis, The Indian gerbils, tatera indica, the soft furred
field rats, Millardia meltada and the house rats, Rattus rattus.
The test ducts should be exposed to these rodent species housed individually
in iron mesh cages under laboratory conditions. Only freshly capture rodent are to
be utilized for the study. The rodents are first acclimatized in laboratory cages for 7-10
days and then the tests be initiated. For each trial, 3-4 rodents of uniform body weight
are to be used for the trial. Two different types of testes may be undertaken for all the
ducts.
Choice Tests: In this trial the ducts of 15-30 cm length (one sample each of treated and
untreated /control sample) are exposed to the test rodents along with food, thus the
rodent had a choice between the food and the test duct. This test may be run for
longer periods (30-45 days). Tap water should be provided ad libitum to the rodents.
NO Choice Test: The rodents are exposed to the test ducts only and no food is given to
the rodents during the period of trial. The test ducts (one sample each of treated
and untreated /control sample) are to the exposed to the test rodents. This trail may be
run for 5-7 days depending upon the health status of starved test rodents. Tap water
should be provided ad libitum to the rodents.

Page 175 of 289
CIN U40102GJ2003SGC042906
Observation on tooth marks, rodent behavior toward exposed ducts, relative extent
of damage in treated and untreated samples should be computed for both types of
ducts. Health status of test animals in choice and no choice test must also be
monitored for the record any ill effect of exposure of treated / control ducts on these
animals. Number of cases and the extent of rodent bites / scratch marks in control and
anti rodent treated ducts may indicate the relative deterrent/repellent properties of the
test ducts.

Water shall conform to M-1. Cement shall conform to M-3. Sand shall conform to M-6. Grit shall conform
to M-8. Graded stone aggregate 20mm nominal size shall conform to M-12.
2.0 General
2.1 The concrete mix shall be designed by preliminary tests, the proportioning of cement and aggregates
shall be done by weight and necessary precautions shall be taken in the production to ensure that the
required work cube strength is attained and maintained. The controlled concrete shall be in grade of M-
200 with prefix controlled added to it. The letter M refers to mix and numbers specify 28 days works
cube compressive strength of 150mm cubes of the mix expressed in Kg/ Cm2
2.2 The proportion of cement, sand and coarse aggregates shall be determined by weight. The weigh
batching machine shall be used for maintaining proper control over the proportion of aggregates as per
mix design.
The strength requirements of different grades of concrete shall be as under:
Grade of concrete Compressive strength of 15 cms. cubes in Kg / Cm2 at 28 days,

conducted in accordance with IS 516 1959.
Preliminary test (min) Work test (min)
M-150 200 150

M-250 320 250
M-300 380 300
M-350 440 350
M-400 500 400
In all cases, the 28 days compressive strength specified in above table be the criteria for acceptance or
rejection of the concrete. Where the strength of a concrete mix as indicated by tests, lies in between the
strength of any two grades specified in the above table, such concrete shall be classified in for all purposes
as concrete belonging to the lower of the two grades between which its strength lies.
2.3 Admixture may be used in concrete only with approval of Engineer in Charge based upon the
evidence that with the passage of time neither the compressive strength of concrete is reduced nor are
other requisite qualities of concrete and steel impaired by the use of such admixture.
3.0 Workmanship
3.1 The proportions for ingredients chosen shall be such that concrete has adequate workability for
conditions prevailing on the work in question and can be properly compacted with means available except
where it can be shown to the satisfaction of the Engineer in Charge, that the supply of properly graded
aggregate of uniform quality can be maintained till the completion of work. Grading of aggregate shall be
controlled by obtaining the coarse aggregates, in different sizes and being in them in the right proportions
as required. Aggregate of different sizes shall be stocked in separate stock piles. The required quantity of
material shall be stock piled several hours, preferably a day before use. The grading of coarse and fine
aggregate shall be checked as frequently as possible, the frequency for a given job being determined by
the Engineer in Charge to ensure that the suppliers are maintaining the uniform grading as approved
for samples used in the preliminary tests.
3.2 In proportioning concrete, the quantity of both cement and aggregate shall be determined by weight.
Where the weight of cement is determined by accepting the makers weight per bag a reasonable number
of bags shall be weighed separately to check the net weight. Where the cement is weighed from bulk
stocks at site and not by bags, it shall be weighed separately from the aggregates. Water shall either be
measured by volume in calibrated tanks or weighed. All measuring equipments shall be maintained in
clean, and serviceable condition. Their accuracy shall be periodically checked.
3.3 It is most important to keep the specified water cement ratio constant and at its correct value. To this
end, moisture content in both fine and coarse aggregates shall be determined by the Engineer in
Charge, according to the weather conditions. The amount of mixing water shall then be adjusted to
Page 239 of 289
CIN U40102GJ2003SGC042906
compensate for variations in the moisture content. For the determination of moisture content in the
aggregates, IS 2389 (Part III) shall be referred to. Suitable adjustments shall also be made in the weights
of coarse aggregates due to variation in the moisture content. Minimum quantity of cement to be used in
concrete shall not be less than 320 Kg / Cmt.
3.4 Mixing
3.4.1 For all work, concrete shall be mixed in a mechanical mixer which along with other accessories shall
be kept in first class working condition and so maintained throughout the construction. Measured
quantity of aggregate, sand, cement required for each batch shall be poured into the drum of the
mechanical mixer while it is continuously running. After about half a minute of dry mixing measured
quantity of water required for each batch of concrete mix shall be added gradually and mixing continued
for another one and half a minute. Mixing shall be continued till materials are uniformly distributed and
uniform colour of the entire mass is obtained and each individual particle of the coarse aggregate shows
complete coating of mortar containing its proportionate amount of cement. In no case shall the mixing be
done for less than two minutes after all ingredients have been put into the mixer.
3.4.2 Mixers which have been out of use for more than 30 minutes shall be thoroughly cleaned before
putting in a new batch. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Engineer in Charge the first batch of
concrete from the mixture shall contain only two thirds of normal quantity of coarse aggregate. Mixing
plant shall be thoroughly cleaned before changing from one type of cement to another.
3.5 Consistency
3.5.1 The degree of consistency which shall depend upon the nature of the work and methods of vibration
of concrete shall be determined by regular slump tests in accordance with IS 1199 1959. The slump of
10 mm to 25 mm shall be adopted when vibrators are used and 80 mm when vibrators are not used.
3.6 Inspection
3.6.1 Contractor shall give the Engineer in Charge due notice before placing any concrete in the forms
to permit him to inspect and accept the false work and forms as to their strength, alignment and general
fitness but such inspection shall not reliever the contractor of his responsibility for the safety of men,
machinery, materials and for results obtained. Immediately before concreting, all forms shall be
thoroughly cleaned.
3.6.2 Centering design and its erection shall be got approved from the Engineer in Charge. One
carpenter with helper shall invariably be kept present throughout the period of concreting. Movement of
labour and other persons shall be totally prohibited for reinforcement laid in position. For access to

Page 240 of 289
CIN U40102GJ2003SGC042906
different parts, suitable mobile platforms shall be provided so that steel reinforcement in position is not
disturbed. For ensuring proper cover, mortar blocks of suitable size shall be cast and tied to the
reinforcement. Timber, kapachi or metal pieces shall not be used for this purpose.
3.7 Transporting and laying
3.7.1 The method of transporting and placing concrete shall be as approved. Concrete shall be so
transported and placed that no contamination, segregation or loss of its constituent material takes place.
All form work shall be cleaned and made free from standing water, dust, snow or ice immediately before
placing of concrete. No concrete shall be placed in any part of the structure until the approval of Engineer
in Charge has been obtained.
3.7.2 Concreting shall proceed continuously over the area between construction joints. Fresh concrete
shall not be placed against concrete which has been in position for more than 30 minutes unless a proper
construction joint is formed. Concrete shall be compacted in its final position within 30 minutes of its
discharge from the mixer. Except where otherwise agreed to by the Engineer in Charge concrete shall
be deposited in horizontal layers to a compacted depth of not more than 0.45 metre when internal
vibrators are used and not exceeding 0.30 meter in all other cases.
3.7.3 Unless otherwise agreed to by the Engineer in Charge, concrete shall not be dropped into place
from a height exceeding 2 meters. When trucking or chutes are used they shall be kept close and used in
such a way as to avoid segregation. When concreting has to be resumed on a surface which has hardened,
it shall be roughened, swept clean, thoroughly wetted and covered with a 13mm thick layer of mortar
composed of cement and sand in same ratio as in the concrete mix itself. This 13 mm layer of mortar shall
be freshly mixed and placed immediately before placing of new concrete. When concrete has not fully
hardened, all laitance shall be removed by scrubbing the wet surface with wire or bristle brushes, care
being taken to avoid dislodgement of any particles of coarse aggregate. The surface shall then be
thoroughly wetted, all free water removed and then coated with neat cement grout. The first layer of
concrete to be placed on this surface shall not exceed 150mm in thickness and shall be well rammed
against old work, particular attention being given to corners and close spots.
3.7.4 All concrete shall be compacted to produce a dense homogeneous mass with the assistance of
vibrators, unless, otherwise permitted by the Engineer in Charge for exceptional cases, such as
concreting under water, where vibrators cannot be used. Sufficient vibrators in serviceable condition shall
be kept at site so that spare equipment is always available in the event of breakdowns.
Concrete shall be judged to be compacted when the mortar fills the spaces between the coarse aggregate
and begins to cream up to form an ever surface. Compaction shall be completed before the initial setting
starts i.e. within 30 minutes of addition of water to dry mixture. During compaction, it shall be observed
Page 241 of 289
CIN U40102GJ2003SGC042906
that needle vibrators are not applied on reinforcement which is likely to destroy the bond between
concrete and reinforcement.
3.8 Curing
Immediately after compaction, concrete shall be protected from weather, including rain, running water,
shocks, vibration, traffic, rapid temperature changes, frost and drying out process. It shall be covered with
wet sacking, Hessian or other similar absorbent material approved, soon after the initial set and shall be
kept continuously wet for a period of not less than 14 days from the date of placement. Masonry work
over foundation concrete may be started after 48 hours of its laying but curing of concrete shall be
continued for a minimum period of 14 days.
3.9 Sampling and testing of concrete
3.9.1 Samples from fresh concrete shall be taken as per IS 1199 1959 and cubes shall be made, cured
and tested at 7 days or 28 days as per requirements in accordance with IS 516 1959. A random sampling
procedure shall be adopted to ensure that each concrete batch shall have a reasonable chance of being
tested i.e. the sampling should be spread over the entire period of concreting and cover all mixing units.
The minimum frequency of sampling of concrete of each grade shall be in accordance with following:
Quantity of No. of Quantity of concrete No. of samples

concrete in samples in the work
the work
1 5 Cmt. 1 31 - 50 Cmt. 4
6 15 Cmt. 2 51 and above 4 + one additional for each additional 50 m.

or part thereof.
1630 Cmt. 3
NOTE: At least one sample shall be taken from each shift. Ten test specimens shall be made from each
sample, five for testing at 7 days and the remaining five at 28 days. The samples of concrete shall be taken
on each day of concreting as per above frequency. The number of specimens may be suitably increased as
deemed necessary by the Engineer in Charge when procedure of tests given above reveals a poor
quality of concrete and in other special cases.
3.9.2 The average strength of the group of cubes cast for each day shall not be less than the specified cube
strength of respective concrete grade at 28 days. 20 % of the cubes cast for each day may have value less
than the specified strength provided the lowest value is not less than 85% of the specified strength. If the

Page 242 of 289
CIN U40102GJ2003SGC042906
concrete made in accordance with the proportions given for a particular grade, does not yield the
specified strength, such concrete shall be classified as belonging to the appropriate lower grade. Concrete
made in accordance with the proportions given for a particular grade shall not, however, be placed in a
higher grade on the ground that the test strength are higher than the minimum specified.
4.0 Stripping
4.0.1 The Engineer in Charge shall be informed in advance by the contractor of his intention to strike
the form work. While fixing the time for removal of form work, due consideration shall be given to local
conditions, character of the structure, the weather and other condition that influence the setting of
concrete and of the materials used in the mix. In normal circumstances (generally where temperatures
are above 20 C and where ordinary concrete is used, forms may be struck after expiry of periods specified
in item for respective item of form work.
4.0.2 All form work shall be removed without causing any shock or vibration as would damage the
concrete. Before the soffit and struts are removed, the concrete surface shall be exposed, where
necessary in order to ascertain that the concrete has sufficiently hardened. Centering shall be gradually
and uniformly lowered in such a manner as to permit the concrete to take stress due to its own weight
uniformly and gradually. Where internal metal ties are permitted, they or their removable parts shall be
extracted without causing any damage to the concrete and remaining holes filled with mortar. No
permanently embedded metal part shall have less than 25 mm cover to the finished concrete surface.
Where it is intended to re-use the form work, it shall be cleaned and made good to the satisfaction of the
Engineer in Charge. After removal of form work and shuttering, the Executive Engineer shall inspect
the work and satisfy by random checks that concrete produced is of good quality.
4.0.3 Immediately after the removal of forms, all exposed bolts etc., passing through the cement concrete
member and used for shuttering or any other purpose shall be cut inside the cement concrete member to
a depth of at least 25 mm below the surface of the concrete and the resulting holes be filled by cement
mortar. All line caused by form joint, all cavities produced by the removal of form ties and all other holes
and depressions, honeycomb spots, broken edges or corners and other defects shall be thoroughly
cleaned, saturated with water and carefully pointed and rendered true with mortar of cement and fine
aggregate mixed in proportions used in the grade of concrete that is being finished and of as dry
consistency as is possible to use. Considerable pressure shall be applied in filling and pointing to ensure
thorough filling in all voids. Surfaces which are pointed shall be kept moist for a period of 24 hours.
