4.0 METHOD STATEMENT

4.1 Survey

To begin with, licensed surveyor is required to establish the boundary and the
temporary bench mark and existing ground level (EGL) all these have to be
confirmed by the E.R. All confirmed TBMs are to be establish in the manner to
ensure no disturbance to them. Following this, setting out and clearing would
proceed. All surveys carried out would be done jointly with E.R. The status of all
works completed by Third Party (ies), if any, would be jointly inspected and the
status recorded accordingly.

4.2 Site Clearance

Temporary main accesses/haul roads would have to be built, and at strategic

locations to be joined to existing main logistic road and probably public accesses
and this would require E.R close assistant.

All cleared/felled vegetation including debris and other unwanted structures, if

any as directed by the E.R would be carted away from the site to an approved
location(s). Some would be deposited within the site low lying areas, if any, and
approved by the E.R, with proper compaction to the satisfaction of the E.R.

4.3 Ground Improvement Using Excavation Repeat Method (Appendix I).

4.3.1 1st Stage: Sequence of Work for Permanent Backfill Under Platform Slab
and Construction of Platform Slab

a. Step 1
i. Excavation of unsuitable material under facial beam to formation level
RL:2.30.
ii. Backfill with sand immediately after excavation.

b. Step 2
iii. Erection of Geotextile sand wall with tie back in layer
iv. General filling until reach facial beam soffit level.

c. Step 3
v. Construction of facial beam cast on top of geotextile sand wall.
vi. General filling to soffit level and laying of damp proof sheet or lean
concrete or approved by E.R.

d. Step 4
vii. Construction of platform slab.

4.3.2 2nd Stage: Unsuitable Material Soil Replacement, Track Filling and
Surcharge Filling.

a. Step 1
i. Excavation of unsuitable material soil from existing ground level to
formation level.
ii. Backfill with sand immediately after excavation to level RL: 4.00

b. Step 2
iii. Backfill with suitable soil fill (CBR >= 5%) compacted to specifications.
iv. Topping up surcharge of 300mm thk.

4.4 Instrumentation- Monitoring for Soil Treatment Works.

4.4.1 Settlement Markers

Settlement markers would be established in locations selected by the E.R. The

permanent settlement reference stations shall be located on stable ground.

4.4.2 Settlement Gauges

i. Settlement gauges shall be provided and installed vertically in the positions as

directed by the E.R. for the purpose of measuring settlement taking place under
and adjacent to the embankments. Settlement gauges shall be installed as shown
in the Drawings.
ii. All necessary measures would be taken to protect necessary to protect settlement
gauges from damage by plant and vehicles and shall repair any such damage to
the satisfaction of the E.R. A visible barrier at a distance of 750mm around each
gauge would be made available

iii. Any damaged Settlement gauges would be made available. Would be replaced
within seven days or as directed by E.R should any settlement gauge be damaged
in such a way as to make it useless for its purpose.

4.4.3 Method of Monitoring

i. Monitoring of vertical movements of surface settlement markers and settlement

gauges shall be by precise leveling with respect to the permanent settlement
reference stations. Provisional locations of the surface settlement markers,
settlement gauges and permanent settlement reference stations are given in the
Drawings or as directed by E.R.

ii Measurement of settlement shall be by use of a approved precise level.

4.4.4 Installation of Instruments

i. The method of installation shall be the most advantageous method recommended

by the manufacturer and shall be subject to the approval of the E.R;

ii. All the instrument such as settlement gauges and permanent settlement reference
stations would be installed before commencement of earthworks;

4.4.5 Frequency of Measurement

Frequency of Measurement as stated in BQ (once a week, during construction and

once in 2 weeks after construction.

4.4.6 Protection of Instruments

All instruments shall be protected against damage over the period of the Contract.
Instruments damaged during the above period shall be immediately replaced
