1.0 Purpose:

The Purpose of this procedure is to lay guidelines, requirement and to establish a method or a system to control the open cutting & trenchless activity.

 

2.0 Scope :

The Scope of the works covers the laying of RCC Pipe NP4 of 1000mm diameter on LHS of NH (NH No. will be mention) Road from (Chainage 1) to (Chainage 2) by using Trenchless Jack Pushing method.

3.0 Methodology:

3.1 Survey

Alignment of Pipe Line to be marked from the position of Manhole to Manhole which is to be constructed.

3.2 List of Manpower:

·         Lighting Arrangement inside Pipe                             - As per Requirement

 

3.3 Procedure:

1. Underground Utilities to be checked with tracking machine before start of the work. If any Underground facility found then it is to be informed to concern authority and change in alignment to be initiated and approved by the competent authority.

2. After checking with Tracking Machine and if there are no underground utilities or alignment approved, the marking of Manhole to be done on both ends and marking to be done on the ground for the underground piping.

3. Area to be properly barricaded with the steel barricading/ proper barricading and if diversion is to be made then the board of Diversion to be installed at both ends.

3. Entry Pit is to be excavated to the sufficient capacity so that RCC Pipe line of ----- meter (mentioned in drawing)length can be laid through this entry point by jack pushing method.

4. After Pit excavation the proper Strutting and Shoring to be done with Steel material

5. Inside the excavated pit, the RCC wall to be constructed on opposite direction of pipe pushing for support of jack resting.

6. Pushing of RCC Pipe to be started after that with Hydraulic Power Pack Machine from 100mm to 250mm(and mentioned in specifications) and manually excavation of soil in pushing alignment with crow bar and pixels and disposal of soil outside of pit by the use of Hydra machine.

 7. Activity of Pushing and Manual excavation inside of pipe to be done in tandem.

8. Arrangement of proper lighting and exhaust to be done for proper working inside of pipe line

8. Alignment & Level of pipe to be checked with Tracker Machine.

9. With the pushing and manual excavation method the pipe line to be laid up to the next manhole.

10. Then the RCC Wall made inside of the entry pit to be demolished.

11. Construction of Manhole as per the procedure to be done in the excavated entry pit.

12. Backfilling in layers and proper Compaction shall be done up to the existing ground level.

13. By this way the work will go on from the entry point of next manhole.

The word sewerage is made from sewer. The word sewer indicates the usable water which is received from kitchen, bathroom and outfall from toilet/W.C. Every large or small city was held at sea, river and lake and it was planned at initial stage of the project planning, that the dirty water of homes and industries was dumped in that water source easily. Many years passed the dirty water from these utilities are dumped in the nearest source and that source water was make too poisons. Many aquatic life is survive in water and when dirty water is mixed with water source the biological cycle was affected and fishes and other animals population was decreases. Image Source:Pexels.com In that case population of human is also increases continuously and after that level of water source was decreases and we faced many problems continuously. Then sewer network is introduced. Outlet from all homes are connected to lateral lines means the water of kitchen, bathroom and water closet are co
