3. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
3.1. It is contractor direct responsibility to COMPANY to ensure that whoever
performs the work follows all the provisions set out herein. In the event
that any of these provisions are impractical, it is CONTRACTOR's
responsibility to immediately bring this to COMPANY's notice, in which
case, CONTRACTOR should not proceed in the immediate area concerned
without receiving instructions from the COMPANY.

All areas of the site shall satisfy the compaction requirements set
out below. If additional compaction is required on original grade, or
in areas of excavation, then these areas shall be compacted and
filled with granular material.
Sandy clay and cohesive soils as defined herein shall be placed and
compacted to at least 95 percent of the Standard Proctor maximum
density determined in accordance with method A of ASTM D-698.
Granular soils shall be compacted to an in-situ density of at least 70
percent relative density, as defined in ASTM D-2049. At least one
density test shall be made for every 500 cubic meters (or part
thereof) of each classification of compacted fill deposited.
Controlled placement of soils containing less than 15 percent fines
in normally better accomplished using the relative density method.
Maximum dry density of clays should be determined by the
Standard Proctor test. A minimum of one grain size analysis shall
be performed for each significant change in material being used.
Care shall be taken to ensure that the lower layers of fill are placed
and compacted using only that amount of comp active effort
necessary to create a bridge over the weaker soils. As the fill height
is increased, the comp active effort may be increased to attain the
desired density in the upper layers of fill.
5.2.8. Tank Farms Dikes
Tank farm's dikes shall be constructed as per item 4.2, and in
conformity with the lines, grade, and sections indicated on the
project drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the minimum width
at the top of dikes shall be 1.2 meters with a slope not steeper than
3:1, and protected from erosion using ground cover vegetation as
per TJE-C-SP-011 (Landscaping).

5. DRAINAGE
5.1.
The project site shall be rough graded to the elevations indicated on the
Project Drawings after clearing; grubbing and filling operations are
completed. The whole site shall be maintained in such a manor that it will
properly drain at all times, including construction of all necessary
temporary outlet ditches, dams, or diversion channels.
5.2.
Ditches shall be cut to the lines, grades and sections indicated on the
Project Drawingsto provide for proper drainage of the site.
5.3.
All drain culverts and conduits indicated on the Project Drawings shall be
installed, bedded and backfilled. Normally culverts are constructed before
the foundation of the embankment. Bedding shall conform to the
requirements given below for Class A, B, C or D bedding as indicated on
the Project Drawings. If bedding class is not shown, use Class C bedding.
5.3.1. For Class A bedding, the lower part of the pipe exterior shall be
bedded in a continuous cradle of 2,000 psi or 140 kg/cm2 concrete.
Having a minimum thickness under the pipe of one-forth the
nominal inside diameter and extending up the sides of the pipe for
a height equal to one-forth of the inside diameter. The cradle shall
have a width at least equal to outside diameter of the barrel of the
pipe plus 200 mm and shall be constructed monolithically without
horizontal construction joints.
5.3.2. For Class B bedding, the pipe shall be carefully placed on a
minimum 100 mm thickness of the granular material, over an earth
foundation shaped to conform to the lower part of the pipe exterior
for a width of at least 60 percent of its external diameter.
Compatible soil materials shall be placed and compacted in 150
mm layers to fill completely all places under and adjacent to the
pipe for a distance of at least 300 mm above the top of the pipe.
5.3.3. For Class C bedding, the pipe shall be bedded with "ordinary" care
in an earth foundation shaped to fit the lower part of the pipe
exterior for a width of at least one-half its external diameter.
Granular material shall be placed and tamped to the level of the top

of the pipe, so that all spaces under and adjacent to the pipe are
filled and compacted.
5.3.4. For Class D bedding, no special care is required in shaping the bed
or backfilling, except the fill shall be in contact with the pipe at all
points.
5.4.
5.5.
5.6.
After major construction work is completed for the Project, final grading
will be required to insure that grades are in agreement with the Project
Drawings. Surface irregularities resulting from construction activities shall
be repaired, fill added, and ditches dressed as required, insuring proper
drainage of the site.

7. FENCING
7.1.
Material
7.1.1. Fencing shall be 7'0" overall height, with three (3) strands of barbed
wire facing to the outside.
7.1.2. Fabric shall be 72" chain link steel wire galvanized by the hot-dip
process after weaving. Weight of galvanizing shall be 1.2 oz. of zinc
per square foot of area in accordance with ASTM A-392, Class 1
Wire for fabric shall be No. 9 gage woven in a 2" mesh. Top and
bottom salvages shall have a twisted and barbed finishing.
7.1.3. Line posts shall be galvanized 2_" O.D. standard weight pipe
(schedule 40). Line posts shall be spaced not more than 10'-0" apart
in the line of the fence.
7.1.4. End, corner, angle, and pull posts shall be 2_" O.D. standard weight
galvanized tubular pipe (schedule 40).
7.1.5. Swing gateposts shall be galvanized standard weight pipe. Size to
vary as follow:
Gate Leaf Width
Post Size
2 3/8" OD
2 7/8" OD
4" OD
7.1.6. Slide gateposts shall be minimum 4" O.D. standard weight tubular
pipe. Single or double post construction shall be used depending on
overhead clearance and opening size. Larger posts shall be used
where required by pressure loading.
7.1.7. Setting of posts shall be in concrete, finished above grade,
crowned at top to shed water. Hole sizes to vary with the post
type.
Line Post

Installation
7.2.1. Finished fences shall be in proper alignment, with posts plumb and
all wire work properly tensioned. Care shall be exercised to equalize
the tension on each side of the posts. All corner, end, and
gateposts shall be diagonally braced in an approved manner.
7.2.2. Posts shall be checked before the concrete is set to insure the
alignment has been maintained. Bracing for all ends, corner and
gateposts shall be secured in place before posts are subjected to
strain.
7.2.3. Stretches of fence more than 10.0 ft. in length shall have a pull post
with braces midway between the stretch provided.
7.2.4. All changes in direction of 30 and over shall be considered as a

7.2.5. Pull post shall be used where there is an abrupt change in the
