a) In case of structures whose external faces are exposed, such as elevated
tanks, the requirements of the test shall be deemed to be satisfied if the
external faces show no sign of leakage or sweating and remain completely
dry during the period of observation of seven days after allowing a seven
day period for absorption after filling with water.
b) In the case of structures whose external faces are submerged and are not
accessible for inspection, such as underground tanks, the structures shall
be filled with water and after the expiry of seven days after the filling; the
level of the surface of the water shall be recorded. The level of water shall
be recorded again at subsequent intervals of 24 hrs over period of seven
days. Backfilling shall be withheld till the tanks are tested. The total drop in
surface level over a period for seven days shall be taken as an indication of
the water tightness of the structure. The ENGINEER shall decide on the
actual permissible nature of this drop in the surface level, taking into
account whether the structures are open or closed and the corresponding
effect it has on evaporation losses. Unless specified otherwise, a structure
whose top is covered shall be deemed to be water tight if the total drop in
the surface level over a period of seven days does not exceed 40 mm.
c) Each compartment/ segment of the structure shall be tested individually
and then all together.
23.2
For structures such as pipes, tunnels, etc. the hydrostatic test shall be carried
out by filling with water, after curing as specified, and subjecting to the
specified test pressure for specified period. If during this period the loss of

heavier layers of rust shall be removed by chipping.
The power tool cleaning shall remove loose mill scale and rust by adopting very
thorough scrapping, grinding and machine brushing. After the surfaces are
cleaned by compressed air, it shall have a pronounced metallic sheen.
3.3.2.2
Flame Cleaning
Hard mill scale and rust shall be removed through Oxy- acetylene flame. The
work shall be carried out by trained workmen to ensure that only mill scale is
removed without affecting the parent steel. The work shall be carried out
carefully on welded surfaces so that the strength of weld is not affected due to
heating.
3.3.3
3.3.3.1
Sand/ shot blasting shall be resorted to only after removal of grease, oil and
other contaminants. The work shall be carried out by impinging under pressure
of air, a jet of sharp sand or granulated steel (steel grits) on to the metal
surface. The process shall ensure complete removal of rust and firmly adhering
mill scale. Special care shall be taken on weld areas to remove flux and
spatter. Blasting shall ensure an even colour of the surface and the surface
shall have silver grey colour. Precautions shall be taken when sand or shot
blasting of light gauge steel surfaces to ensure that buckling does not occur to
continuous impingement of sand or steel shots under high velocity.
3.3.3.2
Sand/ shot blasting shall be adopted for structures which are exposed to
corrosive conditions for which superior paint protection is to be adopted. The
finished surfaces shall conform to the requirements of Sa 2 or Sa 3 as per

WORKMANSHIP
5.1
The type and the number of coats of the primer paint and finish paint shall be
as specified in the respective items of work.
5.2
5.3
No painting shall be done in frosty/ foggy weather or when the humidity is high
enough to cause condensation on the surface to be painted. Paint shall not be
applied when the temperature of the surface to be painted is at 5 C or lower.
5.4
Primers shall adhere to the surface firmly and offer a key to the subsequent
coats.
5.5
The application of paint film shall serve the twin purpose of protecting the steel
from corrosion and giving the decorative appearance. A paint which gives the
steel adequate protection over a long period together with good appearance
shall therefore be adopted.
5.6
5.7
5.8
Structural steel surfaces shall be given the first coat of primer at shop. Further,
any abraded surfaces of the first coat during transport from shop to site and
during erection shall be provided with a touch-up coat of the primer.
5.9
The dry film thickness coat of primer shall be not less than 75 microns.
5.10
Application of finishing paints shall be carried out within the shortest possible
time interval after primer since the primer coats are too thin to give adequate
corrosion protection to the steel surface over a long duration.
5.11
Filler coats shall be applied to fill dents and to obtain a smooth finish wherever
necessary. Only factory prepared filler suitable for steel work shall be used.
Fillers prepared by whiting and linseed oil by craftsmen at site shall never be
used as such fillers may be unbalanced and incompatible with primer and
finishing coats. Application of filler shall be done with good `putty knife' and
necessary skill. Filler applied shall be just sufficient to fill the depression or
unevenness and it shall be restricted to the minimum. It shall be applied in thin
layers. In filling, depression or unevenness, due as many coats as are
necessary may be applied allowing each layer to dry hard. The hardened coat
SECTION: D6
SHEET 6 OF 7
shall be cut down by wet rubbing before the subsequent coat is applied. Where
necessary, filler coats shall be applied over the undercoats also.
5.12
5.13
After the coat of primer is hard dry, the entire surface shall be wet rubbed
cutting down to a smooth uniform surface. When the surface becomes dry, the
undercoat of paint of optimum thickness shall be applied by brushing/ spraying
with minimum of brush marks. The coat shall be allowed to hard-dry. The under
coat shall then be wet rubbed cutting down to a smooth finish, taking adequate
care to ensure that at no place the undercoat is completely removed. The
surface shall then be allowed to dry.
5.14
The first finishing coat of paint shall be applied by brushing or by spraying and
allowed to hard-dry. The gloss from the entire surface shall then be gently
removed and the surface dusted off. The second finishing coat shall then be
applied by brushing or by spraying.
5.15
5.16
5.17
Epoxy primer and epoxy paint shall be applied within the specified pot life all as
per recommendations of the manufacturer.

DESIGN REQUIREMENTS
3.1
The principal design parameters for this chimney are indicated in DATA
SHEET-A.
3.2
3.3
The design and construction of the chimney and its foundation shall conform to
the requirements of all statutory rules and regulations of local and national
authorities. Where such requirements are less conservative than the
corresponding requirements of this specification, the latter shall govern.
3.4
The chimney and its foundation shall be designed to resist stresses due to the
most critical combination of any of the following:
(a) Weight of the chimney with or without lining, platforms, accessories and all
other dead loads.
(b) Wind loads (both along wind and across wind) or earthquake forces
whichever is governing.
(c) Temperature gradient across the chimney shell.
(d) Eccentric loads from corbels/platforms supporting the flues, Roof slab, etc.
(e) Live loads on roof and platforms. Also weight of equipment and materials
and other live loads during construction.
(f) For the foundation and portion of the shell below grade level, appropriate
earth pressures, hydro- static forces, surcharge etc as applicable.
(g) Local moments due to ovalling.
(h) Forces from the lift and operating equipment. Also load from staircase if
supported from intermediate platforms.
SECTION: D8
SHEET 5 OF 47
The total design stresses at a section shall include all secondary effects, viz.,
corbel effect, eccentric loading due to platforms, secondary moments due to p effect, etc. The total design stress in no case shall exceed the permissible
stresses specified in clause 7.0 of IS: 4998 (Part-1) - 1975 and as modified
below.
(a) Stress in concrete shall be restricted to 0.275cu under combination of
Dead load + Wind load against value specified in clause 7.1.1(a) of IS:
4998 (Part 1) 1975.
(b) If the circumferential tensile stress in concrete due to wind induced ring
moment exceeds the value specified in clause 7.1.1(g) of IS: 4998 (Part 1)
1975, additional reinforcement shall be provided in two layers limiting the
stress in reinforcement steel to value specified in clause 7.1.2(g) of IS:
4998 (Part 1) - 1975.
3.6
The safety factor against over-turning under worst combination of loads, shall
not be less than 1.5 in any direction during construction and 2.0 after
construction is complete. For the purpose of calculating safety factor against
overturning, only 90% of the dead loads as calculated from dimensions and
densities of materials shall be taken into account. Also, at critical sections in
the foundation, diagonal tensile stresses and bending stresses about two
orthogonal axis shall be checked. For foundations resting on piles, the
punching shear shall be checked at all critical sections. Net safe allowable
bearing capacity of soil specified in DATA SHEET-A can be increased by 25%
under seismic conditions but no such increase will be permitted due to wind
loading. No tension shall be allowed in gross pressure under chimney working
condition i.e., shell + lining complete.
3.7
For estimating the deflections of the chimney in lined and unlined conditions,
the modulus of elasticity of concrete shall be as per the mean value specified in
Clause A-3.1 of IS: 4998 (Part-1) - 1992.

entering the air gap. The number and size of the inlet openings in the shell
shall be calculated as per the procedure given in the text boon Tall Chimney
by S. N. Manohar. Maximum temperature inside the shell when both the flues
are under operation shall be limited to 40 0C.
3.10
Air outlets with stainless steel wire mesh mounted on stainless steel frame
shall be provided at the top of the shell. These openings shall be suitably
spaced and their total area shall not be less than that provided for air inlets.
3.11
3.12
The maximum width of the openings shall normally be limited to an angle of not
more than 60 subtended at the centre of the concrete shell. Where the extent
of shell left between two openings is limited such that the subtended angle is
less than 45, procedures as normally adopted for column design, shall be
adopted to check the adequacy of the shell in this region.
3.13
The bearing capacity and soil strata furnished with the bid are based on the
findings of preliminary soil investigation conducted at the site. However,
PURCHASER has the right to revise, at his discretion, the bearing capacity of
the soil as well as founding depth at any time, particularly after the excavation
is done and the founding strata is exposed to OWNER / CIPL / PURCHASER's
inspection. In such an event, the CONTRACTOR shall revise his
designs/drawings to suit the revised founding depth and bearing capacity and
obtain CONSULTANT's approval to the same at no extra cost. The
CONTRACTOR shall also submit detailed calculations listing the quantities of
concrete, steel, etc required as per his original design and that required for the
revised design. The difference in cost between the two foundations, arrived at
by pricing the quantities at quoted rates, shall be either recovered from the
CONTRACTOR, or paid extra, as appropriate.

CONSTRUCTION
18.1
GENERAL
18.1.1
CONTRACTOR shall ensure that the excavation and sub-structures are free
from water during construction and shall take all necessary precautions and
measures to prevent ground water, storm water, etc from entering the
excavation so as to carry out the work in reasonably dry conditions in
accordance with the construction schedule.
18.1.2
The CONTRACTOR shall dewater and maintain reasonably dry, the excavation
for structures and all other areas of the site, where build up of water (in the
opinion of ENGINEER) is likely to obstruct the progress of work, or lead to
insanitary conditions by stagnation, or retard the speed of construction, or is
detrimental to the safety of men, materials and equipment or is undesirable due
to any other reasons.
18.2
STAGING
18.2.1
Design and erection of staging shall conform to the requirements of all relevant
IS Codes and National safety standards/regulations.
SECTION: D8
SHEET 34 OF 47
18.2.2
18.2.3
18.2.4
Minimum live load on staging due to labour and personnel movement shall be
considered at 300 kg/m2. It may be taken as 150 kg/m2 when earthquake
loads are also taken into account. No increase in stresses shall be considered
for wind and seismic conditions.

SHELL CONSTRUCTION
18.3.1
The CONTRACTOR shall prepare and submit a detailed quality assurance plan
within 15 days of award of work. This plan shall include the following:
SECTION: D8
SHEET 35 OF 47
a) Design criteria
The CONTRACTOR shall give the criteria to be adopted for design of
various temporary works and the slip-forms. The following requirements
shall be met.
i)
ii) Minimum design live load from personnel shall be 300 kg/sqm. To this
shall be added the self-weight and weight of construction materials and
equipment, etc.
iii) The staging shall be designed as per the requirements of IS: 800 (for
conventional type) and IS: 4014 (for tubular scaffolding type).
The CONTRACTOR's design calculations shall be based on normally
accepted calculation techniques for the structural forms which the
CONTRACTOR adopts for staging.
b) Statement of detailed 'Construction Method
This shall include at least the following:
i)
SECTION: D8
SHEET 36 OF 47
i)
The type and number of equipment and facilities to be used for slipforming such as jacks, working platforms at various levels, yokes,
walers, etc. There shall be at least a 50% standby capacity of jacks,
jack rods, hydraulic pump, hose pipes, etc.
Concreting
a) Particular attention must be given to concrete placement because of the
thin wall section and the presence of reinforcing steel. Compaction of
concrete shall be by vibration.
b) Under no circumstances shall the point of discharge of the concrete into the
forms be more than 1.5 m above the concrete surface on which it is to be
deposited. Also, not more than 2 metres height of chimney shall be
concreted on any one day.
c) Concrete in the shell shall be poured in about 200 mm layers uniformly. The
concrete in each lift (where jump form is used) shall be laid in one
continuous operation for the full circumference of the shell so that there will
be no vertical or inclined construction joints. Horizontal construction joints
shall be maintained at uniform spacing throughout the height of the
chimney.
SECTION: D8
SHEET 37 OF 47
d) Lump sum price quoted provides for conducting ultra sonic Pulse Velocity
(UPV) test on the bottom portion of the wind shield concrete. In addition 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 in other areas. The quality of concrete shall
be considered as satisfactory if it meets specification requirements and the
sonic velocity is at least 4000 m/s. If the tests prove that the quality of
concrete is not satisfactory, then all costs associated with the tests and any
rectification shall be borne by the CONTRACTOR.
e) 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.
f)
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 slip-forming
operation.
g) The vibrator poker shall only be lowered into the concrete to a depth
corresponding to the height of the last placed layer of concrete. 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 achieve of 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.
h) 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 slipping rate shall be
limited to 200 mm/hour.
i)
18.3.3
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.
Reinforcement Laying
SECTION: D8
SHEET 38 OF 47
Physical Checks
Some of the mandatory physical checks to ensure that construction tolerances
are met with shall be carried out by the CONTRACTOR, as under:
a) The twist or rotation of the slip-form every 60 minutes.
b) Level of top of jacks every thirty minutes.
c) Verticality with the help of lasers at least once in four hours.
d) Inside and outside diameters/ dimensions and wall thickness, once in each
shift of 8 hours.
e) Level of top of form panels once initially and subsequently after each
interruption.
f)
g) Batter of the form panels and yoke legs once on erection and subsequently
after each interruption.
h) Condition of jack rods for ovality, indentation, buckling, moving out of
alignment, etc before fixing each rod.
i)
j)
Construction Tolerance
The following shall be the limiting construction tolerances to be strictly adhered
to by the CONTRACTOR.
a) Verticality:
