4. Brief specification
Excavation for foundation in hard rock by blasting including trimming and levelling
the bed and removing the excavated material and stacking it into measurable heaps
within a distance of 50 meters from site area.

6. Scope and Objectives
The purpose of this procedure is to establish the methodology to be followed
for excavation work during the construction phase .
This procedure is applicable to the execution team. It intends to co-relate and
control the entire task needed to be done in order to achieve satisfactory
construction excavation work.
Excavation is to be done for Hard rock by the means of blasting.
We have used a machine intensive approach .
Scope of work- 10 cubic meter
10. Jack Hammer
Jack hammerPurpose:
Drilling of holes,
Depth of drilling is 2m in this
case
Action of drilling takes place by
percussion action.
A pilot rod is drilled into the
surface with the help of
jackhammer
Charges: Rs11/ft or Rs 400/hour
11. Material Used
Explosives
Special Gelatine (gelatine stick)
Powergel IDL
25 mm thick
Rs 2000/25kg
Each stick of 125 grams.
Electric detonator
SED – Rajasthan Explosives
1.8 m long wire
Rs 12 / Piece
12. Workmanship
Preparation of surface:
o Firstly the ground for blasting should be cleared of all obstacles.
o The ground should be preferably leveled.
o The ground should be cleaned and marked.
Method of Blasting:
o Holes are to be drilled in triangular pattern for the required length.
o The electronic detonator is inserted into the explosive gel tube which is connected to
the external wire circuit
o Explosives are placed within the hole and are then grouted with dry soil up to the top
o The connection are checked and rechecked by the blaster
o All the explosives are connected in parallel and series connection
o This wire is connected to the detonating fuse.
o warning siren are sounded at an interval of 5 minutes before blasting, all the traffic in
the area should also be halted & red flags to be placed along the way, fragile structure
should be covered by polymer or plastic sheets to avoid damage.
o The blast shed should be located at least 10 m from the blasting area.
o After the detonation has taken place the area is excavated with the help of a excavator &
loaded into the tipper.
o Small pieces of rocks are removed and ground is levelled.
14. Testing and Acceptance Criteria
The dimensions of the pits will be checked as per the GFC drawings .
All over excavations filled back to required lines, levels and grades by placing plain
cement concrete of grade M10 and/or richer and/or by compacted earth, as
directed by the Engineer, at the Contractor’s cost.
Sand replacement method of testing the field density on site to ensure the desire
densification has been obtained i.e minimum 95% of its maximum dry density.
15. Mode of measurement and payment
Mode of measurement-
As per IS 1200(Part 1),
o Mode of measurement for Excavation is in cubic meter
o Each dimension shall be measured to the nearest 0.01m
o Areas shall be worked out to the nearest 0.01 sq.m
o Cubical content shall be worked out to the nearest 0.01 cu.m
o Working Authorised working space shall be special in each case. Where authorised
working space is not so specified the following shall apply:
600 mm measured from the face of substructure ( including protective measures, if
any) at lowest level, where extra working space is required.
Mode of payment-
o Payment shall be done as per the GFC drawings.
16. Rate analysis
Rate as per calculations: Rs 680.58
Rate as per DSR 2014: Rs 653
