Design_Review Checklist For Road Projects Forword

Proper road design and construction require intimate knowledge in many specialized fields of civil engineering. Basic requirements of road design are:: technically practical and cost effective environmental and instituitional acceptability social and political acceptability Good engineered road design should comply with the above basic requirements so that the design can be Implemented without encumbrance and road users including pedestrians can use roads with ease, comfort, safety and no unexpectations. In order to achieve the objective of producing good engineered designs, 28 Arahan Teknik, manuals and guidelines for various road design aspects have been published by Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, to assist road designers. To ensure the deliverables of road design ie drawings, works specifications and bills of quantities for road projects are properly produced by suitably qualified engineers and compiled with all the Arahan Teknik and departmental policies, a comprehensive Road Design Review Checklist is very imperative. It Is hoped that this Road Design Review Checklist will be useful to those engaged upon the design review for road projects. It is also necessary to emphasize that this Checklist is a current guidance document and, as such, its recommendations should be adopted with cautions and good engineering judgement as the the departmental policies and requirements may change from time to time. Users of this checklist are encouraged to give feedback and to comment at any time to Cawangan Jalan on the contents of the Checklist, so that improvements can be made to the future editions.

2. 2.1

Earthwork Removal of unsuitable material under road embankments or culverts should be based on design and on SI results. Statement such as "Depth of removal of soft or unsuitable will be decided at site by the SO" is not acceptable. Table showing location (chainages), height of embankment, depth of removal with design cross sections should be included on Drg. Criteria of removal based on technical need should be clearly stated on drawings (for cases where detailed SI is not available or feasible).

2.2

Piled embankment as ground treatment for road embankment on soft and swampy ground should be avoided and replaced by more cost effective measures wherever posslible. Design Page 6

FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY

Design_Review Checklist For Road Projects

and cost comparion for various ground treatments and slope stabilization should be carried out to justify the recommendation. Unit cost should be based on quotations from several specialist contractors. When the cost and scope of ground treatment and slope stabilization works are significant, say RM5juta or more, alternative design may be allowed; but the acceptance criteria shall be clearly specified on Drg and specifications. Generally the design criteria should be the post construction settlement should be less than 100mrn in 5 years or less. (Refer to Geotechnical Design Criteria for Road Works). 2.3

Earthwork design

(a)

The following notes should be specified in the earthworks design drawing/ specification: "The Contractor shall submit detailed weekly programme, time-location chart and construction sequences with details of constructional plants deployment for SO's prior written approval before commencement of earthworks for each location/hill/valley. Intercepted drain and other drains if specified or directed by the SO should be constructed first with proper permanent or temporary outlet before bulk excavation for roadway or filling is allowed to proceed. Slope protection such as hydroseeding or turf ing or as specified or directed by the SO shall be carried out immediately within 14 days after the bulk excavation or filling is initiated. All cut slopes shall be graded smooth by suitable grader. For cut slopes to be hydroseeded, suitable horizontal grooves (Not vertical grooves) should be constructed. The necessary bench/berm drains shall be completed with proper temporary or permanent outlet before it is allowed to proceed the earthworks to the next berm/ bench. If the Contractor fails to comply with any of these requirements, the SO reserves the right to order stop work and the contractor shall be held

Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

responsible to rectify at his own cost for all the defects/failures due to whatever factors/ causes within the defect liability period". (b)

Quantities for common excavation, rock excavation and imported material fill should be clearly justified. Basis of estimation should be made known to ]KR in writing especially for projects with excavation exceeding l x 101m3.

(c)

Estimation of rock quantities should be based on some geological evaluation, rock profile based on SI or seismic sur vey and site inspection. Generally for hilly/ mountainous terrain, rock excavation may be around 10% of the total cut volume while for rolling terrain it may have 2°% to 5% rock excavation.

(d)

The volumes of cut and fill should as far as possible balance one another.

(e)

Generally the slopes for cut and fill sections should be 1:1 and 1:1.5 respectively. Slope for rock section should be 1:4 to 1:8. The designer shall check the stability of slopes based on technical analysis. FOS required should be at least 1.2 (Refer to Geotechnical Design Criteria for Road 'Works).

(f)

In addition to typical cut and fill cross sections, designed cross sections with specific typical details and specific need for certain chainages should be prepared.All cross sections should be categorised and designed accordingly.

3. 3.1

Drainage The designs of surface drains, sub surface drains, culverts and slope protection etc should comply with ]KR guidelines (KT41/86, KT42/86, KT46/86 8t KT47/86). The schedule of culverts including culvert no, location, type & size, estimated length, invert levels for outlet 8t inlet, etc. should be shown on Drg. Similarly, schedule of Page 7

FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY

Design_Review Checklist For Road Projects

surface drains including type of drains, locations, estimated gradient, length etc. should also be shown on Drg. 3.2

No CMP is allowed except when the following 3 condit ions are fully complied:

such as ADT, % of commercial vehicles, annual growth rate, equivalence factor, subgrade CBR shall be, elaborated and justified. 5. 5.1

Concrete/Structures Piling Works

a)

culvert size exceeds 2.5m diam or equivalent 3

Bakau piles are riot allowed in ]KR project (arahan KPKR).

b)

cast insitu box culvert is not possible or practical because the waterway cannot be diverted or too costly to divert the waterway.

c)

access is very difficult or no proper access is available

4.

Pavement Surface Evenness/ lrregularities & Design Class of surface evenness should be shown on Drawing and BQ. (Refer Table 4.14 ]KR Standard Road Spec).

Local product (`f/T rebars or H piles etc) should be used as reinforcement for micropiles. All precast concrete piles (spun/RC/prestressed) should comply with MS 1314 Part 1. Environmental problems of piling works should be adequately addressed especially in builtup areas eg. No diesel hammers in City areas; only non-displacement piles near railway lines or built-up areas etc.

Class SRI should be adopted for all R4, R5, R6 new Roads. Class SR2 should be for urban road and the design speed is less than 60 km/hr. SR3 should be for R1 Road. It is suggested that each traffic lane has to be tested longitudinally. Transverse direction should be tested at 100m spacing. The full extent of the area which does not comply with the spec shall be made good based on acceptable method of rectification approved by the SO. A BQ item "To carry out all necessary Quality control tests for pavement works including surface evenness test - L.Sum" should be Included. (See Para 9.4). Design life of pavement should be 10 years as recommended in Arahan Teknik 5/85, but for major road where the projected ADT up to 10 years exceeding 10,000 per lane, the design life should be 20 years. Basis of design parameters Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

Pile schedule including locations of piles, types 8t no. of piles, estimated pile lengths, design load, test load etc. should be shown on Drg. Criteria of determining founding levels of piles should also be specified on Drg. 5.2

All bridge designs especially the flood level, free board and hydraulic capacity should be cleared from ]PS. Demolition of existing bridge or major culvert should be justified. Structural and hydraulic capacity, foundation condition etc should be assessed before making recommendations. Adequate and appropriate deck drainage should not be overlooked. Artist's impression of the bridge should be prepared to check the aesthetic aspect. All bridge structures hould be checked by bridge engineers of at least 5 years bridge design experience and have published some technical papers. Scope of checking should at least include suitability of structural layout, max flood level, compliance of geometric requirements, structural and foundation design, drainage and bridge furniture etc. Design report including Page 8

all traffic diversion and safety matters. The Contractor has to provide and maintain the approved traffic diversion plan in good order at ,all time (no pot hole, good road marking, adequate sign boards, traffic barrier/cones/New Jersey Barrier, blinker light etc). If the contractor fails to comply with these requirements within 2 hours after SO's oral or written instruction, the SO or his representatives reserve the right to order stop work under Clause xx and/or to engage any other third party to carry out any of the works deemed necessary by the SO and all the cost incurred including at least 25% administrative cost shall be borne by the Contractor and will be deducted accordingly from the Contractor's interim payment. These requirements should be included in Spec and Drgs to ensure satisfactory implementation of traffic diversion plan which should be prepared bar qualified traffic engineer.

Concrete Finishes All concrete finishes shall be free from defects such as honeycomb, porous concrete, laitance, uneven surfaces etc. The dimensions of the finished concrete shall be within the tolerable limits specified. The defective finishes shall be rejected or rectified with satisfactory measures recommended by specialist and approved by the SO. All exposed concrete surfaces of the complete structure affected directly or Indirectly by the rectification works have to be painted with 2 coats of acrylic paints approved by the SO. All the costs involved In the rectification works have to be borne by the Contractor. The above requirements are to deter contractor from producing shoddy works.

5.4

Bar schedule for all R.C works should be included on Drags.

6.

Traffic diversion/management The Consultant has to prepare a practical traffic diversion plan where appropriate so as to ensure minimum inconvernence to road users. eg during construction stage, no of traffic lanes and capacity should not be reduced especially during the peak hours; the existing profile of road, if possible, should not be reduced or raised significantly ( > 0.3m) unless proper diversion is arranged etc. The Contractor shall engage a full time safety officer with at least, with SPM qualification and min 5 year working experience in road construction to supervise and maintain

Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

7.

Services relocation plan should be properly prepared. Type, size or capacity of the buried or overhead utility/services with their respective locations should be shown on Drgs. These details should be based on information furnished by the relevant utility agency plus site inspection plus trenching or other reliable probing or testing. All necessary details and billed items should be included. The affected utility agencies should give due coorperation to help consultant to procure all the necessary details fast; otherwise all the necessary testings and cost of preparation can be passed to the utility agencies to pay. This is in line with PM Department's circular that all costs involved in services relocation within ROW have to be fully borne by the affected utility agencies. If the utility agencies choose to carry out the relocation/protection works by them selves, the following points should be Page 9

Guidelines For Planning Scope of Site Investigation Works For Road Projects by Ir Neoh Cheng Aik Jurutera Penguasa Kanan, Cawangan Jalan JKR Malaysia Abstract Site investigation is an essential, part of geotechnical design process. Intimate knowledge of Ihr,-; test techniques and possible geotechnical problems arise from ground conditions with part rular' reference to problems on stability and df:formation or displacement of slopes and founrations are essential for planning the scope of site investigation (SI) works. This paper intends to suggest some guidelines for planning the scope of SI for road projects. Only general principles and rationale underlying the site investigation practice are presesited. General Site Investigation (SI) is the exploration or discovery of the ground conditions to enable engineers to make informed design decisions. This will avoid or reduce the likely risks of unexpected hazards being encountered during and after construction. The main purpose of SI is to determine within practical limits, the depth, thickness, extent & composition of each distinct subsoil stratum; the depth & composition of ground water; the strength, compressibility properties of soil/rock stratum and other ground features information as required by geoieahnical engineers to perform appropriate cost effective design. All site investigation (SI) works should comply with BS 5930, BS 1377 and JKR Standard, Specification for SI works. All deep boring should be rotary wash boring with adequate capacity and accessories to perform the works specified. The extent of site investigation mainly depends on the character and variability of the subsoil and ground water, and the amount of existing information available. However it should be noted that subsoil conditions of a road alignment are very sensitive to geological

Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

conditions, and so the spacing and location of boreholes/test pits/types of tests should be more closely related to the detailed geology of the project area and the geotechnical problem/analysis required to be carried out. The planning of SI works should be carried out by suitably qualified geotechnical engineers after review of the project brief/route location: desk study and a preliminary field inspection. All the quality SI works should be closely directed, monitored, supervised and reported by geotechnical e,igineers. Additional scope of SI may be found necessary after some preliminary SI results are made available. Filling Areas The purpose of SI in filling areas is mainly to check bearing capacity and assess settlement of the ground, overall slope stability and provide necessary soil data for design of ground treatment works (if found necessary). For filling areas where embankment is high (> 6 m) or the ground is swampy and consists of compressible soils, adequate number of boreholes and other relevant field tests should be carried out to determine the subsoil condition with particular reference to:Š

the geometry of the subsoil strata both transversely and longitudinally, (usually one or two borehoies in addition to three or more Deep Sounding (DS) or piezocones are used to determine the generalized sub soil profile for deposited formation at each stretch of soft ground. For residual soils areas, hand augering (HA) and deep boring (DB) plus JKR probes are performed instead of DS).

Š

the nature of these subsoil strata, their basic physical properties or index proper ties (moisture content, liquid limit, plastic limit, sieve analysis, SG, organic content), shear strength (Cu, C', o') and compress ibility (Cc, Cv, Mv). At least two undis turbed samples per distinct soft strata per borehole plus field & lab testing are pre ferred. Page 32

FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY

Design_Review Checklist For Road Projects

Stationary piston samplers should be used for taking samples from soft strata. Additional penetration vane shear and pressure meter tests are invaluable to obtain representative strength and consoli dation properties of the soft ground. The extent of site investigation in embankment areas should be sufficient to produce ade quate characterization of site conditions and properties to assess slope stability, to predict amount and rate of settlement and to design the necessary cost effective ground treatment. Š

regime of ground water (and seepage). and its variation (by HA/DB and piezometers) . In, the case of sizeable project on subsoil consisting of very compressible organic clay, instrumented trial embankments incorporated with ground improve-ment techniques may 1-iave to be carried out to ensure the design is cost effective.

Š

Generally, the depth of boreholes should extend through all compressible or unsuit able soil or unstable laminated weathered rock at shallow depth (< 6 m) which is likely to encounter instability and settle ment problems due to the surcharge load of the filling. A a practical guide, boreholes should only ba terminated after reaching very stiff/dense strata ('two consecutive SPT values exceeding 20) for soft ground areas such as in coastal alluvial soils. In residual soil areas, at least one borehole should be extended until very hard/very dense strata (SPT value exceeds 50). For filling on steep sloping ground, more boreholes should be carrie=d out to deter mine the presence of unstable so;f/rock horizons, i.e. the character and orientaVon of all structural discontinuities, e.g. joints, sheared zones, laminated bedding, foliation etc. Detailed geological mapping may also be required. For low embankment in res:dual soil areas, one or two hand augering plu,: a few JKR probes are sufficient for design.

Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

Cut Areas The purpose of SI in cut areas is to procure geological information (soil/rock, interface), soil properties and water table conditions 'far slope stability checking and design of slope stabilization works when necessary. The SI for cut areas to be pontential borrow areas is to determine soil properties, (compaction properties) and assess the suitability as construction material specified. For cut areas, adequate soil investigation should be carried out to determine the type of soils (soil classification, index and strength properties from on quality samples etc.) and ground water level and its uariation and fluctuation (by Casangrande stand-pipe or pneumatic piezometer). Infiltration, erosion and terrain characteristics aspects are very important for slope design. This is for assessment of the stability of slopes and drainage requirements. Exploration to a minimum depth of 2 m to 3 m below the proposed formation level is necessary for ;proper assessment of possible subgrade strength and drainage conditions. For sedimentary rock areas, in addition to geological mapping, at least three boreholes per major hill should be carried out to determine the stratigraphical formation, the presence of defective or unstable geological structural discontinuities and its strength properties. Seismic survey may have to be carried out for major road projects passing through mountainous areas involving massive and deep excavation This is to ensure that more geo logical information are made available for slope stability assessment and also the quantity of rock excavation can be estimated with reasonable accuracy. Foam drilling and Mazier sampling are only required for high quality undisturbed samples in deter mining the shear strength of the residual soils. For generalized subsoil profile purpose of the whole alignment (including in filling areas), the spacing of boreholes or hand augering for highway projects should be 60 m - 600 m. For road alignment passing through the same type of geological formation, less number of boreholes are required or spacing should be 500 m Page 33

Design_Review Checklist For Road Projects

interval or more. For road alignment passing through complex, variable/different geological formations, more borehofes at closer spacing are necessary. JKR probes should be carried out near the HA positions and filling areas to verify the consistency of the subsoil.

Š

Field Test SPT shall be carried out at 1.r rn interval unless otherwise stated by the designer. In case of soft ground, vane shear test shall toe carried out instead of SPT and interval of testing should be 'm interval.

At least one test pit (2 m deep or more) should be carried out at each major cut area which form major sources for filling. Bulk sampling for classification test, CBR, dispersion and compaction test should be carefully planned for study on suitability and availability of filling materials.

Š

Undisturbed samples, (UD samples) or preferable stationary piston samples shall be taken at, soft clay strata (alternate to SPT/vane test) for consolidation/shear test especially for boreholes at abutment/ approach to abutment.

Š

At least 3 water samples (from river and or from UD samples) shall be taken for chemical test (pH, So4 & chloride con tents).

Š

All soil classification test (natural moisture content, Atterberg limits, & sieve analysis etc.) shall be carried out for all typical dis turbed sample at various distinct strata.

Š

Photographs (at least 5 nos.) shall be taken to give general site conditions, access (ter rain and vegetation etc.), river/stream bank, & water flow conditions, boring machine set up, typical soil/ rock samples.

Bridges and Structures For major structures like bridges, major culverts and retaining walls, at least two Deep Boring should be carried out at each site or minimum one borehole per pier or abutment or maximum spacing of borehole should be 60 m. Additional boreholes should be allowed for bridge approach embankments especially on soft ground or high embankment areas. Other basic requirements are as follows:Š

Bore Depth All boreholes should be rotary wash bor ing. Boring shall only be terminated after 5 consecutive SPT exceeds 50 OA 5 consec utive SPT exceeds 30 if the bore depth also exceeds 60 m or refer to designer for advice and direction. Boring also can be terminated if rock is encountered:Rock Type

Common SI Methods (a) JKR Probes

Results are used to determine thickness of unsuitable material to be removed and also for preliminary design of embankments. Usually carried out near HA or DB posi tions and filling areas to verify the consis tency of subsoil of medium strength up to maximum of 12 m deep. (b) Hand Augering (HA)

Used in soft to stiff cohesive soils or sandy soils above water table. Usual spacing is 60 m - 600 m. Maximum depth is about 5 m. Very extensively used for road projects because extensive samples along the align ment can be obtained at a relatively fast and cheap price for the basic and index properties; used for identification, classifi cation and correlation of engineering prop erties such as permeability, strength and deformation etc. (c) Deep Boring (DB)

Boreholes are advanced by power rotary drilling. Borehole sizes of NW or HW are preferred. Invaluable to determine strati graphical formation and subsoil properties in cut and filling areas. Usual spacing is 60 m - 600 m. Field tests Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

such as SPT vane shear, (for soft to stiff strata) permeability & pressure meter tests can be carried out in the boreholes. Disturbed and undisturbed samples can be taken for various laboratory tests to deter mine strength and deformation properties. Piezometers can also be installed in the borehole to monitor the ground water con ditions. SPT tests are usually carried out at 1.5 m interval. For soft clay and residual soils strata, stationary piston and Mazier samplers are respectively used to take quality undisturbed samples for laboratory strength tests. Continuous soil sampling (Swedish or Delft Samplers) is specified if identifica tion of soil fabric or depth of changes in distinct strata & properties are required. For uniform subsoil, more sampling for lab tests; but for erratic subsoil more field tests should be carried out. (d) Deep Sound(DS) - 100 kN/200 kN capacity

This is the static Dutch Cone Penetrometer Test. It is usually used to supplement Deep Boring results in filling areas which are fluvial or soft formation. Not suitable for boulder or gravel abundant subsoil. The results can be used to correlate and ascer tain strength & deformation properties etc. of the subsoils. Useful and adequate to determine subsoil profile. Piezocone tests is preferred. (e) Test Pit & Bulk Sampling

Usually up to 2 m deep. For visual inspec tion of subsoil strata, soil type and strength (by pocket penetrometer). Bulk sampling for lab tests (soil classification, CBR & compaction tents). Undisturbed block sam ples also Grin be obtained for strength tests in the laboratory. Concluding Remarks It is hoped that the above suggested brief guidelines are useful and helpful to road engineers to plan their scope of site, investigation. It is vital to identify and understand adequately Page 35

the possible associated risks and geotechnical problems to b-:~ encountered before planning a proper SI scheme for a road project. Purpose and scope of tests can only be determined after the possible geotechnical problems are known. Scope of Si works when planned by different engineers tend to be varied ')ecause there are an infinite number of conditions to be met and the process of planning also leaves many areas where individual engineering judgement, knowledge and experiences must be applied. Therefore it is important to realize that it is impossible to provide an exhaustive step by step guidelines applicable to all possible cases for engineers who are not familiar with geotechnical design.

Road Safety Audit Objective.

The objective of Road Safety Auditing is to identify road safety deficiencies at various stages in the development of road projects, so that they can be eliminated at the most oppor tune time to reduce costs and minimise disruption to design and construction progress. Road Safety Audit will be carried out in accordance with the Guidelines prepared by JKR and shall include audits at the following stages of the project: Stage 1 Audit - At the Planning and Feasibility Stage of the Project Development. The Stage 1, Audit will be carried out towards the end of the planning phase and, where a number of alternative proposals are being considered for the project, an audit is to be made of each alternative. the results of which (to the extent relevant) should be included in the evaluation process. The Stage 1 Audit may be omitted on the approval in writing of JKR’s Supervising. Engineer for minor projects involving only reconstruction or rehabilitation of and existing road, intersection or interchange, or otherwise where them is little or no significant planning phase in the project. Stage 2 Audit - At the Preliminary Design Stage, when the Functional Layout has been prepared and land acquisition requirements are being determined. The project development shall be not proceed into the detailed design stage before resolu tion of each of the road safety items identified in the Stage 2 Audit. Stage 3 Audit - At the Detailed Design Stage. This audit trust be done: at an appropriate stage towards the end of the detailed design, or as soon as it is possible to determine the safety implications of the design anti when changes can be made at the most opportune time to avoid costly redesign. This may necessitate sep arate audit checks as various elements of the project reach the desired stage of design. The project shall not proceed to the construction stage until each of the road safety items identi fied in the Stage 3 ikudit have been resolved. Stage 4 Audit - At the Construction Stage.

Guidelines for Site Investigation Works 1.

Introduction The basic purpose or objerive of site Investigation Is to acquire all necessary ground Information and data to enable a safe, practical and economical geot echnical or foundation Cesign to tie pre pared. Site Investigation Is an essential part. of the geotechnlcal design process. Intimate knowledge of the test methods and possible geotechnlcal problems that can arise from ground condltlons with particular reference to problems on sta bility and deformation or displacement of slopes and foundations are essential for panning the scope of site Investigation (SI) works. This guideline is intended to assist engi neers to plan and implement Site Investigation (SI) Works for road proj ects so as to ensure that the S1 results are complete, adequate, accurate and reliable according to usual good engi neering practice. Sound knowledge of SI methods, insitu et laboratory testing, equipment, procedures coupled with understanding of typical potential geot echnical problems for road works will ensure proper Sl methods and appropri ate tests for the situation are selected to achieve the targeted purpose of SI. This guideline also Identities the typical geotechnical Issues or problems for road embankments, cut slopes and common road structures In typical geological for mations. Scope of SI and suitable SI methods including relevant types of field tests, samples and laboratory tests to procure the appropriate design param eters for the geotechnical problems iden tified are subsequently discussed. General procedure of SI works includ ing preparation of SI report Is also Included. Decision-making process of SI is presented by the flaw chart In Figure I which Indicates the stages of an

Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

The planning of SI works should be car ried out by sultably qualified,geotechnl cal engineers after review of the project brief/route location, desk study and fleld inspection. All the quality SI works should be closely directed, monitored, supervised and reported by qualified geotechnical engineers registered with Board of Engineers Malaysia. 2.

Desk Study Before planning Sl works, the following desk studies should be carried out first: Project brief with site & location plan (to check overall details of structures & nature of project, loads, bearing capacity, settle ment & stability requirements of slopes, walls, bridges & other superstructures). Usual geotech nical design criteria for road works are shown In Appendix A. -

Topo map (to assess terrain, access site/environment condi tions).

-

Geological map (to evaluate geo logical formation et characteris tics)

-

Aerial photo (to study site condi tions, land use etc.)

-

Other relevant records and infor mation.

-

An evaluation of performance of existing road or structure In the Immediate vicinity of the pro posed alignment or site, relative to the foundation, material and environment.

formation of rock, or soil or both and ground-water conditions occurring at the proposed align ment or location and In the Immediate vicinity. These Information plus site reconnais sance or walk-over survey by designer or engineers involved in SI are crucial to obtain basic knowledge of site condi tions and project concept designs. The need, purpose and the likely geotechnl cal issues or problems can then be iden tified and subsequently used to deter mine or design the scope and methods of SI works. Through SI, the knowledge of behaviour of the ground and Its spa tial variability can be obtained for the necessary geotechnlcal design and con struction. 3.

Scope of SI Scope of SI for a project depends on what Is known about the site and what geotechnical data are required for geot echnical design or evaluation of geot echnical issues or problems. The following information has to be procured before scope of SI can be planned: likely or possible or anticipated geotechnical issues or problems to be encountered In design & construction -establish the pur pose & need for SI -

what Information Is required

-

extent, areas et depth of ground to be investigated

-

time et site constraint

The extent of SI mainly depends on the character and variability of the subsoil and ground water and the amount of existing Information available. However, it should be noted that subsoil conditions of a road alignment are very sensitive to Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

geological conditions and so the spacing and location of boreholes/test pit types of tests should be more closely related to the detailed geology of the project area and the geotechnlcal problem/analysis required to be carried out. Common SI methods and fist of relevant lab and field test methods are given in Appendix B. List of abbreviations used Is given In Appendix C. Some typical geotechnical porblems and usual applicable SI methods and tests for typical road works are given in the following sections. 3.1

Road Embankment on Soft/Weak Ground

Coastal alluvium or deposited soil for mations or swamps are typical soft/weak grounds. Trrplcal geotechnical problems in such areas are settlement and stability. Usual geotechnical design and checking are bearing (short & long term), slope stability (local & global, short & long term), amount and rate of settlement (primary & secondary consolidation, elastic deformation). Geotechnical designs are usually carried out to check whether the design criteria as shown in Appendix A can be complied and subsequently carry out the necessary designs of ground improvement works. Important data to be acquired through SI are: subsoil profile showing they thickness of various compressible and firm strata, Water Table (WT) etc. Deep Sounding/Deep Boring (DS/DB) plus continuous sam pling are necessary If accurate profile is required. Spacing of DS/DB should be in the range of 60m to 300m. DS/DB can be supplemented by Geonor Vane tests and JKR probes. Usually one or two boreholes plus two or more DS or plezocones are used to determine the generalized sub soil proille for each stretch of soft Page 41

-

(b)

until 5 SPT exceeding 20 or 5 insltu vane shear tests exceeding 75 k.Pa if the height of embankment Is 3m to 5m.

(c)

3.2

see Appendix D for applicability of various tests for various engi neering properties.

Road Embankment on Rolling & Hilly Terrains

The main geotechnical problems and relevant SI methods and tests are: (a) Check the stability of embank ment body (local slope stablity); usually unsaturated soil, and the design parameters especially the shear strengths are from compact ed samples using bulk samples taken at least one or two samples at 1.5m deep from major cut areas or borrow pits; assessment on suitability of fill material from relevant major cut areas (HA, test pits & bulk samples for compact lon/CBR & classification tests to get Index properties for engineer ing property correlations). (b)

Check global stability of embank ment: bearing check of support ing ground (DB/SPT to obtain shear strength parameters of sup porting ground based on engi neering property correlations. JKR Probes, HA and piezometer etc are used to supplement DB/SPT). Spacing of boreholes for low embankment (h < 6m) and high embankment should be 300m - 600m and 100m - 300m respectively. DB should be sup plemented by at least one HA plus few JKR probes. Depth of borehole should be until 5 SPT exceeding 20 if embankment height is less than 6m OR until 5 SPT exceeding 30 if the height of embankment is more than 6m. SPT should be carried out at 1.5m Interval. Classification tests for all disturbed samples especial ly those from the top bm should be carried out.

Stability check of supporting ground is very Important when the embankment is on sloping ground or is very high eg 12m high or more. More DB/HA/3KR Probes plus site Inspection etc to Identify possible unstable fault ed/sheared geological formation, laminated bedding, foliation, col luvium, water seepage ground etc should be carried out. Depth of borehole should be until 3m (or more) rock coring especially for the case of sedimental rock for mation.

paction/CBR tests and shear strength parameters from com pacted samples etc). (c)

Spacing DB/HA in cut areas is usually 60m to 600m depending on type of geo logical formation. For stable formation and low cut areas of less than 6m high, bigger spacing or HA only is acceptable. For sedimentary rock areas especially at cut height exceeding 12m, at least 2 boreholes per major hill should be car ried out to determine the stratigraphical formation, the presence of defective or unstable geological structural disconti nuities and Its strength properties. Seismic survey to supplement DB may have to be carried out for project passing through moutalnous areas.

Refer Appendix D for applicable tests for relevant parameters.

Cut Areas

Usual purposes of SI in cut areas are: (a) to assess the slope stability and obtain soil data for the design of slope stabilization works if found necessary. Usualily DB Is carried out to procure information such as subsoil profile, weathering profile, WT conditions by piezometers and shear strength parameters (from SPT' based on engineering property corelacuons or triaxial tests from quality undisturbed samples ie Mazier samplers)., For major high cut areas and unstable geological for mations (sheared/faulted zone or colluvium areas or relict joints etc) more DB Is required. Refer Appendix D for applicable SI methods and tests. DB is usually supplemented by geophysical surveys and/or HA plus JKR probes etc. (b)

to determine the suitability of cut material as filling material for embankment.(HA, test pits, bulk samples plus JKR probes or DE for classification tests, com

Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

to determine the bedrock profile, rock condition and to determine rock type and Its quantity (by site Inspection, geological mapping, seismic survey or DB)

DB in cut areas is usually terminated after 1.5m rock coring or at least 3m below the design formation level, whichever comes first., For highly frac tured sedimentary rock of RQD less than 25% or boulder abundant forma tions, at least 3m coring should be speci fied. 3.4

Pavement Evaluation

Tests relevant for pavement evaluation of the existing road for upgrading works are test pits plus bulk samples, water table monitoring, Insitu plate bearing, field density, DCP (Dynamic Cone Penetration) & CBR tests. These tests are carried out at about 200m to 1000m interval after pavement condition inspection/surveys/traffic count survey. Falling weight Deflectorneter or Benkiman Beam tests at 50m to 200m Interval depending on the severity of pavement conditions may also need to be specified. Page 43

are required for bearing design eg rock socket design or shallow foundation design. See Para 3.4, Appendix D, D 1 & E for additional guidance.

Purposes of SI for structures such as bridges, walls, major culverts etc are for foundation design and construction with particular reference to capacity, settle ment and constructibility assessment. At least 2 DB should be carried out at each site or minimum one DB per pier/abutment or one DB per 60m spac ing especially for erratic or unstable geological formation areas (limestone, boulder abundant areas, faulted/sheared zone etc). Borehole could be terminated after 5 consecutive SPT exceeding 50 or 10 consecutive SPT exceeding 30 if the bore depth is more than 60m or refer to designer for direction. If rock Is encoun tered coring shall be carried out and minimum core length depends on type & condition of rock. Suggested mini mum core lengths are as follows: Rock Type

These test results are necessary for foundation design, stability analysis, and construc tion/temporary works design. Pressuremeter and plate bearing tests may be specified If detail fractured rock conditions (stiffness and deformation) Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

Procedure The guidance given in Para 3 above can be used to determine the locations, num bers and types of SI methods or bore holes or Insitu testing required basing on the need and purpose of SI established from the desk study. Size of boreholes depends on the size of soil & rock samples required. Size of samples depends on types of soils/rocks and types of tests required. Common 51 method; are JKR Probe, HA, MHEI, DB, DS (IOT/20T), Piezocone, DO, Sampling, Test Pits, Geonor Vane, continuous sail sampling, SBP, seismic surveys, etc. Methods, pro cedure and equipment for SI methods,. testing should comply with standard JKR Sl Spec. and relevant MS/BS/ASTM standards. Standard borehole or casing sizes commonly used are 75 rnm, 100 mm, 150 mm. Usually size NW casing or borehole 'ss specified for DB except when extensive and high quality large undisturbed samples airy. required ua determine accurate consoli dation properties and shear strength for stability and settlement analysis. Guidance on selection of SI methods, spacing and depth of boreholes, types of Acid and lab tests etc have been dis cussed. Appendix E & E 1) also provide some guidance in specifying the meth ods of sampling and applicability of common field tests.

Some guidances to determine the fre quency & types of insitu tesdng/sarn pling in the bureholes are: Vane shear test very suitable for very soft to stiff clay to obtain undrained strength SPT Suitable for almost all soil types except very soft clay and coarse gravel; disturbed samples (35 mm diameter) are procured from the test for field Identification/descilptiori of soil types and subsequent lab classifi cation and index properties tests. SPT Is usually carried out at a change of strata or 1.5m interval except when undisturbed sam pling or vane shear test or pres suremeter test is required. SPT may be: carried out at 1.0m Interval If detailed Information is required eg. for shallow founda tion at deep excavation works. Pressuremeter test Menard or self Boring type; suit able for most soil types and soft rocks except soft organic soil 8t hard rock; useful to obtain accu rate bearing capacity, stiffness and compressibility properties; costly at slow test; usually carried out only when duality undis turbed samples or disturbed sam ples are difficult to procure but important for the design e.g. highly fractured soft rock, sandy material etc. Packer test Single or double Packer test Is sometimes carried out in rock strata to assess the amount of

Usual Important laboratory tests; -

Important geotechniced proper ties from lab. tests are:-

Š

BASIC PROPERTIES (colour, natural moisture content, sg, porosity, void, reactivity etc.) for soil description, classification & correlations.

Š

INDEX PROPERTIES (LL,, PL, PI, SL, particle size distribution, organic content etc) for soil description, classification 8t cor relations with engineering proper ties.

Š

CHEMICAL PROPERTIES (total dissolved salts,sulphate ex chloride contents; pH value etc) for corrosion & durability assessment of foundations.

Š

ENGINEERING PROPERTIES (shear strength, stiffness, com pressibility, compaction/CBR, permeability etc.) for analysis and design. Engineering properties can be obtained front insitu test ing and laboratory tests on undis turbed samples. The results from the Insitu anti laboratory testing should be viewed as complimen tary and then compared with the recommended data from the pub lished literatures before adopting as design parameters. For Iniform subsoil, more! elaborate lab test ing should be done, but If the subsoil is complex. or erratic, more insitu testing is more mean ingful. classification & index tests from disturbed & undisturbed samples are mainly for classi fication, Identification & sim ple preliminary correlations for shear strength parameters & other engineering proper ties/behaviour.

compaction/CBR tests from bulk samples coupled with Index properties are for fill suitability evaluation and stability analysis etc.

Common SI Method SI method and the type of equipment or sampler required. for a SI job depend on the nature of terrain, access, type of geo logical formation and intended use of the data. Experience plus engineering judgement are required in selection of SI method. Common SI methods are briefly out lined as follows: (a)

JKR Probes

Results can be used to determine thickness of unsuitable material to be removed and also for pre liminary design of embankments. Usually carried out near HA or DB positions and filling areas to verify the consistency of subsoil of medium strength up to maxi mum of 12m deep. (b)

Hand Augering (HA)

Used In soft to stiff cohesive soils or sandy soils above water table. Usual spacing Is 60m - 600m. Maximum depth Is about 5m. Very extensively used for road projects because extensive open

Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

Deep Boring (DB)

Boreholes should be advanced by power rotary drilling with ade quate capacity for the spefified depth of drilling i.e open hole rotary drilling or casing advance ment drilling method. To avoid disturbance of the underlying soil stratum, only side discharge of flushing medium (water) from drilling rod bits is allowed; bottom discharge from casing should not be permitted. Borehole size of NW or HM are preferred. For borehoes deeper than 20m, rods with a stiffness equal to or greater than BW drill rods but less than 10 kg/m should be specified. Invaluable to deter mine stratigraphical formation and subsoil properties in cut and filling areas. Usual spacing Is 60m - 600m. Field tests such as SPT, vane. shear, (for soft to stiff strata) per meability and pressure. meter tests can be carried out In the boreholes. Disturbed and undis turbed samples can be taken for various laboratory tests to deter mine strength and deformation properties. Piezometers can also be installed in the borehole to monitor the ground water condi tions. SPT tests are, usually car ried out at l .5m interval. For soft clay and residual soils strata, sta Page 47

sists of a tripod with block & tackle or motor driven winch. The borehole is advanced by chopping while twisting rods and washing with pump-circulated water. It Is simple, portable and can be used in all types of soils except those containing big boul ders. Progress is slow when encountering very stiff/dense material especially when deeper than 10 m. MHB can be adopted easily at locations where access is difficult. Normally casing is used and max. depth of boring is about 20m.

Continuous soil sampling (Swedish or Delft Samplers) is specified if identification of soil fabric or depth of changes in dis tinct strata and properties are required. For uniform subsoil, more sampling for lab tests; but for erratic subsoil more field tests should he carried out. (d)

Deep Sound (DS) - 100 kN/200 kN capacity

SPT, vane shear test and undis turbed sampling (only soft to medium soil) can be carried out In the borehole at the required depth.

This Is the static Dutch Cone Penetrometer Test. Is is usually used to supplement Deep Boring results In filling areas which are fluvial or soft formation. Not suitable for boulder, or gravel abundant subsoil. The results can be used to correlate and ascertain strength and deformation proper ties etc. of the subsoils. Useful and adequate to determine subsoil profile. Plezocone tests Is pre ferred. (e)

(g)

Sometimes geophysical survey is used to supplement borehole results. The seismic refraction method with muldgeophones reception of seismic wave of sig nals originating from explosives or hammer blows (for shallow investigation only) can be used to determine the approximate rock profile and geologic features eg faults etc. The electrical resistivi ty method for measuring the resistance of soil to a direct or alternating current is also useful In determining depth to rock, evaluating stratified formations where a denser stratum overttes a lesser dense stratum. Corroslvity of soil and geological features and cavities can also be deter mined.

Test Pit, Bulk Samples & Block Samples

Usually test pit can be up ro.2rn deep. Visual Inspection of sub soill .strata, soil type and strength (by pocket penetrometer) can be carried In test pit. Bulk samples (about 50kg) for lab texts (soil classification, CBR arrd compac tion tests) can be collected. Undisturbed block samples also can be obtained for strength tests In the laboratory. (f)

SI STEERING GROUP. Site Investigation In construction series. Thomas Telford UK, 1993.

The scope of SI works for a project depends mainly on what is known about the site and the nature of the project ie the possible geotechniral problems and issues likely to be encountered dur ing construction at service. The scope of SI works may also need to be changed In the light of new discoveries during the process of SI. Scope of SI works when planned by dif ferent engineers of different background, training and experience tends to be var ied because there is an infinite number of conditions to be met and the process of planning also leaves many areas where Individual engineering judge ment, knowledge and experience must be applied. Therefore It Is Important to realize that It Is Impossible to provide an exhaustive step by step guidelines applicable to all possible cases for engi neers who are not familiar with geotech nical design. 8. 8.1

Objectives This project involves in construction of a new R5 highway of about 30km through rolling to hilly terrains with some localized swamps and 5 bridges. The alignment trav erses through sedimentary shale and granitic formations. Preliminary geological and ter rain evalution studies show that potential slope instability areas are at KM5, KM9 and KM 12. The main objectives of SI are: To determine generalised subsoil profile for the proposed road alignment (earth work planning & rock estimation)

2.

-

To identify unstable soil formation and water table (water bearing zones and free water table depth) in cut areas (colluvium, faulter or sheared zones) for stability analysis & pavement or subsoil drainage design

-

To obtain subsoil propertes and water table for embankment design & necessary ground treatment

-

To determine suitability of fill and borrow sources

-

To obtain subsoil properties; for foundation design for structures

Š Min core size should be 52mm diam (NMLC or HMLC or equivalent) 4. 4.

Field Testing & Sampling

SPT should be carried out at 1.5m interval except when taking undisturbed samples or where soft cohesive stratum is encountered where Insitu vane shear test should be car ried out (at 1.0m to 1.5m interval) instead of SPT. Typical undisturbed sanr,ples from soft to firm strata using thin walled stationary piston samplers should be taken (ruin 63.5mm diam). Typical undisturbed sarriples from residual soils using Mazier samplers with detachable inner liner (74mm diarn) should be taken at selected boreholes shown in the Drg. or as directed by the Designer. Air foam drilling technique should be used. 5.

Laboratory Testing

Field borelogs should be sent to the Designer as soon as each borehole is completed. This is to enable the cieslgner to determine as early as possible the types of lab tests required. This is also to enable the Designer, after examination of the field borelogs, to determine the adequacy of SI (to add or to omit scope of SI). As a general guide, typical disturbed samples from Hand Augers and SPT samplers from each borehole should be selected for classification tests which Include natural moisture content, liquid limit, plastic limit, plasticity index, and particle size distribution (excluding; sg, pipette/ hydrometer tests and other chemical tests unless otherwise speci fied or directed by the Designer). Typical undisturbed samples from soft to firm strata may be selected for odeometer tests/UU/CIU tests etc. Typical undisturbed samples from residual soils may be selected for CIU/CD tests. Water samples are for PH & salt contents tests. Bulk samples from trial pits are mainly for classification, compaction 8t CBR tests. Block samples will be mainly for trlaxial tests (CIU/CD).

Polisi Dasar atas Keperluan KTMB bagi Projek Jambatan Melintasi Laluan Keretapi 1.0

Tujuan 1.1 Tujuan garis panduan ini adafah untuk memaklumkan keperluan serta syaratsyarat yang ditetapkan oleh Kereltapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB) bagi pro jek-projek jambatan JKR yang melintasi laluan KTMB.

2.0

Later Belakang 2.1 Di dalam melaksanaka.n projek-projek infrastruktur, sama ada pembinaan jalan baru ataupun menaikkan taraf jalan sedia ada, pihak JKR kerap mendapati ianya melibatkan lirtasan ke atas laluan keretapi. 2.2

Apabila perkara ini berlaku pihak JKR mengikut lazimnya akan merujukkan cadangan mereka kepada. KTMB untuk mendapatkan ulasan serta kelulusan. Biasanya pelan tatatur serta lukisan-lukisan kejuruteraan yang berkaitan akan dikemukakan kepada KTMB. Berdasarkan cadangan ini pihak KTMB akan memberikan ulasan serta syarat-syarat yang perlu dipenuhi oleh JKR.

2.3

Sejak kebelak angan ini JKR mendapati banyak ketidakseragaman timbul didalam keperluan serta syarat-syarat yang diberikaan oleh KTMB. Perbezaan amat ketara di antara satu projek dengan projek yang lain dan menyebabkan JKR berada didalam dilema untuk mernenuhi keperluan-keperluan tersebut. Perkara ini menjadi lebih ketara dm kr.itikal sejak projek `KTMB Double-Tracking' dilaksanakan. JKR khuatir di dalam rnemenulu keperluan KTMB ini, ketidakser agaman akan dikesan oleh pihak Odit dan JKR akan dipersalahkan di dalam hal ini.

2.4

Rezab Bersama (Common Reserve) JKR mempertikaikan tindakan KTMB yang menetapkan syarat yang perlu dipatuhi oleh JKR memandangkan.TKR juga mempunyai hak keatas rezab terse but. Pihak Kerajaaa perlu memutuykan pihak mana yang berhak ke atas common reserve ini.

2.5

Oleh yang demikian JKR mendapati amat perlu supaya satu polisi dasar ditetap kan oleh kerajaan bagi keperluan-keperluan yang kritikal bagi memudahkan kedua-dua pihak melaksanakan tanggungjawab masing-masing. Perkara ini juga perlu ditetapkan bagi menjamin kedua-dua pihak mernperolehi kos pembinaan yang ekonomik.

2.6

Keperluan-keperluan yang; dianggap kritikal oleh JKR meliputi perkara-perkara seperti `Flagging charge', `Insurance Policy', kelegaan pugak dan mendatar (Horizontal dan vertical clearance) serta kerja.-kerja perlindungan (protection works) yang perlu disediakan.

3.0

Keperluan - Keperluan KTMB

3.1

Flagging Charges

3.1.1

Tuntutan ini berlaku hanya apabila Zon keselamatan KTMB dimasuki. Zon keselamatan KTMB adalah ditetapkan sebagai kawasan yang berada di dalam ketinggian 6 m mene

Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

Page 67

FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY

Design_Review Checklist For Road Projects

gak di atas landasan dan jarak 10 m mendatar dari garis tengah landasan (within 6 m above the track and 10 m from the centre line of the track). 3.1.2

Kakitangan KTMB perlu berada ditapak bina bagi mengawal/menghadkan hadlaju nor mal keretapi kepada 10km/jam. Tuntutan bukan bagi keseluruhan tempoh projek tetapi hanya pada masa-masa ya.ng sebenar diperlukan sahaja dan kadar yang digunakan adalah tetap. Kadar i:ni telah digu nakan oleh KTMB selama 10 tahun. Kadar yang dituntut adalah 2 (man) x RM50/hari

3.2

Inconvenience charges

3.2.1

Penutupan sementara atau pengawalan halaju normal keretapi mengganggu kelancaran jaclual perjalanan.

3.2.2

KTMB mahu mempastikan landasan keretapi sentiasa selamat. JKR perlu menjelaskan aktiviti kerja yang akan mengganggu perjalanan keretapi supaya k:os ke atas bayaran kesulitan dapat ditaksirkan.

3.2.3

Kadar 'incovenience charges' akan dibayar kepada KTMB mengikut Garis Panduan yang dikeluarkan oleh Jabatan Keretapi Malaysia.

3.3

Insurance Coverage

Pihak KTMB menetapkan supaya satu polisi insuran untuk tujuan `damage & potential loss of income' disediakan oleh JKR bagi melindungi kerja-kerja melibatkan laluan mereka semasa pembinaan. KTMB tidak akan mengem:&an'Insurance Coverage' yang berasingan jika `All Risk Insurance' yang disediakan oleh JKR di dalam kontrak utama meliputi: (a) Kerugian yang ditanggung oleh KTMB akibat daripada kelewatan perjalanan keretapi (train delay) disebabkan oleh akitiviti-aktiviti yang berkaii.an dengan projek. (b)

Kerugian pendapatan (loss of income) ‘All risk insurance' yang disediakan dalam kontrak JKR didapati wajar dan cukup untuk tujuan ini. Oleh itu JKR berpendapat bahawa kos tambahan untuk satu insuran polisi yang berasingan adalah membazirkan dan tidak diperlukan.

3.4

Kelegaan Pugak (Vertical Clearance)

3.4.1

Kelegaan P.Igak ada.lahi kelegaan yang diperlukan dari landasan keretapi ke bahagian paling bawah struktur jambatan yang merentangi landasan keretapi.

3.4.2

JKR menghadapi rruisalah besar di dalam perkara ini di mana pihak KTMB kerapkali mengubali kelulusan asal di atas kelegaan pugak. Penambahan kelegaan pugak ini bukan sahaja meningkatkan kos pembinaan jambatan dengar, bariyak teta.pi juga menyukarkan JKR untuk menyediakan cerun yang selarnat yang memenuhi kriteria Arahan Teknik Jalan terutama jika jambatan ini terletak. berhampiran dengan persim pangan.

Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

Design_Review Checklist For Road Projects

3.4.3

Keperluan maksimum KTMB bagi kelegaan pugak dari sudut kejuruteraan Elektrik adalah 6.1m bagi landasan yang mempunyai sistem `catenary'. Ketinggian pugak kabe adalah 4.4m. Amalan KTMB buat masa ini untuk landasan ya.ng tiada talian elektrik kelegaan pugak adalah 6.Om dari paras landasan. Bagi landasan berelektrik kelegaan pugak adalah 7.0m.

3.4.4

Kelegaan Fhigak yang telah dipersetujui untuk digunapakai adalah seperti berikut .

3.4.4.1

Kelegaan Pugak 7.0 m adalah diperlukan bagi struktur jambatan yang merentangi laluan keretapi yang telah merrlpunyai sistem elektrifikasi iaitu di Lembah Klang (laluan Sentul ke Pelabuhan Klang dan laluan Seremban - Rawang).

3.4.4.2

Sekiranya Kelegaan Pugak 7.0 m yang diperlukan bagi struktur jambatan yang merentangi laluan keretapi yang telah mempunyai sistem elektrifrkasi tidak dapat dipenuhi oleh pihak yang; bertanggungjawab membina jambatan tersebut kerana sebab-sebab teknikal dan sebagainya yang munasabah, pihak KTMB akan memberi pertimbangan berdasarkan projek ke projek.

3.4.4.3

Kelegaan Pugak 6.1 m adalah diperlukan bagi struktur jambatan yang merentangi laluan keretapi yang belum mempunyai sistem elektrifrkasi.

3.5

Kelegaan Mendatar (Horizontal Clearance)

3.5.1

Kelegaan mendatar yang telah dipersetujui adalah 25m. Ini telah mengambilkira jarak antara landasan dari tengah ke tengah yang mempunyai talian elek.trik iaitu 4.7m dan jarak zon keselamatan minima dari tengah landasan k:e rezab KTMB memberi jumlah lebih kurang 17m kelegaan mendatar bagi laluan `double tracking'.

3.5.2

Bagi laluan berhampiran stesyen, di mana kelegaan mendatar 25m tidak mencukupi dare KTMB memerlukan kelegaan mendatar yang lebih, KTMB hendaklah menge mukakan justifikasi lengkap berhubung dengan kelegaan yang diperlukan dan ianya hendaklah diluluskan oleh Jabatan Keretapi Malaysia.

3.6

Parapet Wall

3.6.1

KTM bersetuju merlggunapakai lukisan `New Jersey Barrier' dan `Parapet Wall' yang telah disediakan oleh JKR pada jambatan merentangi laluan keretapi yang telah disediakan untuk projek Jalan Lingkaran Dalam Johor Baluu, Johor untuk. diguna pakai bagi lain-lain projek jambatan merentangi laluan keretapi. `New Jersey Barrier' dan `Parapet Wall' ini telah direkabentuk dengan inengambilkira faktor keselamatan pengguna jalanraya atau jimbatan dan juga keselamatan laluan keretapi di bahagian bawah jambatan tersebut.

3.6.2

`New Jersey Barrier' dan `Parapet Wall' pada jambatan merentangi laluan keretapi yang digunapakai tersebut telah direkabentuk dengan mengambilkira perkaraperkara berikut (a) Kenderaan ttidak rnudah jatuh ke atas landasan KTMB. (b) Pejalan kaki - pejalan kaki tidak sewenang-wenangnya boleh melompat dari pada jambatan berkenaan. (c) P'ejalan kaki-pejalan kaki tidak mudah melakukan perkara-perkara yang

boleh mendatangkan bahaya kepada mereka dan kerosakan harta benda. ter masuk melontar objek ke kawasan laluan keretapi. Keperluan standard rekabentuk geometri jalan seperti jaraj pandangan (sight distance) dan faktor keselamatan pengguna jalanraya/jambatan dengan peng gunaan New Jersey Barrier.

3.6.3

Ketinggian Parapet: Wall adalah 1.8 m.

3.6.4

`Approach, road' ke jambatan hendaklah mempunyai New Jersey Barrier bagi meng halang kenderaan daripada terjatuh kedalam kawasan laluan keretapi.

3.7

Kerja-Kerja Perlindungan

Pagar keselainatan sementam perlu disediakan 50m sebelum dan 50m selepas lokasi jambatan melintasi landasan. Ini adalah untuk keselamatan pekerja semasa kerja pembinaan dijalankan bagi menghalang pekerja dari memasuki landasan keretapi. Ketinggian pagan hendaklah 6m. 4.0

Garis Panduan Untuk Dasar Terhadap Keperluan KTMB Bagi Projek-projek Jambatan Melintasi Laluan Keretapi Dengan segala hormatnya perkara tersebut di atas adalah dirujuk. 2. Pada pandangan Audit, perkara yang penting dalam menetapkan garis panduan ini adalah penetapan prosedur-prosedur teknikal dan pentadbiran yang perlu dipatuhi oleh Jabatan Kerja Raya (JKR) dan juga Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB) dalam pelaksanaan projek Lintasan keretapi. Pihak Audit kurang bersetuju terhadap bayaran Flagging Charges dan Inconvenience Charges yang diminta oleh KTMB. Berikut adalah sebab-sebabnya: i. Tiada sebarang peraturan atau undang-undang yang sedang berkuatkuasa Setakat ini tidak ada sebarang peraturan atau undang-undang yang membenarkan bayaran. pampasan kepada orang awam atau mana-mana pihak lain dalam pelaksanaan projek-pro jek infrastruktur Kerajaan Persekutuan akibat dari gangguan kepada pihak- pihak yang berkenaan ketika sesuatu kerja sedang dilaksanakan. ii. Tanggungjawab KTMB terhadap Pembangunan Infrastruktur Negara Sebahagian bestir modal wham KTMB dimiliki oleh Kerajaan Persekutuan. Maka dalam usaha Kerajaan Persekutuan membangunkan infrastruktur negara yang mana memberi faedah kepada sernua pihak, adalah kurang munasabah bagi KTMB untuk tidak mahu memikul sedikit kos (flagging charges & inconvenience charges) bagi membuktikan bahawa KPAB juga prihatin terhadap pembangunan infrastruktur negara. iii. KTMB dapat menjimatkan kos Pembinaan jambatan melintasi laluan keretapi bukan sahaja memberi faedah kepada orang awam, tetapi juga secara langsung menjimatkan kos dan masa kepada KTMB. Ini adalah kerana KTMB tidak perlu lagi menempatkan pekerja-pekerjanya bagi mengawal Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

lalulintas ketika keretapi melintasi lintasan berpagar. Gaji dan kemudahan yang perlu disediakan bagi pekerja-pekerja yang berkenaan adalah penjimatan kepada KTMB. iv. Tuntutan KTMB akan menjadi precedent kepada pihak lain Jika inconvenience charges dibayar kepada KTMB dalam urursan kerajaan melak sanakan projek-projek pembangunan kerana ado elemen gangguan kepada KTMB, ITiaka pihak-pihak lain juga akan membuat tuntutan yang sedemikian terhadap kerajaan kerana telah mengalami gangguan. Maka bayaran kepada KTMB akan menjadi satu precedent kepada pihak-pihak lain. Mengikut amalan, di setiap lintasan keretapi berpa gar, KTMB terpaksa menghalang lalulintas sementara waktu bagi membenarkan kere tapi melintasi jalan raya. Dalam kes-kes sedemikian tidak pernah timbul permintaan inconvenience charges oleh mana-mana pihak lain terhadap KTMB. v. Gangguan tidak dapat diukur dalam nilai wang Kerugian yang telah dialami oleh KTMB akibat daripada kerja-kerja yang sedang dilak sanakan oleh kerajaan tidak dapat ditentukan ataupun ditaksirkan. Pihak Audit hanya bersetuju KTMB menuntut kerugian dalam keadaan-keadaan yang berikut: - Sekiranya terdapat litigasi oleh pihak swam terhadap KTMB yang berpunca dari kerja-kerja yang dijalankan oleh JKR secara langsung. - Laluan keratapi langsung tidak dapat digunakan. - Bilangan. keretapi yang boleh lalu setiap hari terpaksa dikurangkan akibat kerjakerja JKR. vi. Flagging charges pada RM50/hari bagi duo orang pada masa-masa sebenarnya diper lukan merupakan sate petty claim. Biarkanlah ini menjadi satu sumbangar. kecil oleh KTMB terhadap pembangunan infrastruktur negara oleh kerajaan. 3. Dengan sebab-schab yang tersebut di atas pada pendapat Audit, adalah tidak wajar sama sekali bagi KTMB meminta kerajaan membayar KTMB kerana terdapat sedikit gangguan terhadap laluan keretapi. Apa yang amat penting demi menjaga keselamatan terhadap orang avvam don harta benda kerajaan ataupun KTMB, ialah mengadakan prosedur-prosedur teknikal don pen tadbiran bagi KTMB don JKR mematuhi, supaya kerja-kerja pembinaan jambatan melintasi laluan keretapi dapat dilaksanakan dengan lancar, selamat don mengakibatkan kesulitan yang paling minimum kepada inana-mana pihak. Sekian,terima kasih. ‘BERKHIDMAT UNTUK NEGARA’ ‘AUDITAN BERKUALITI MENINGKATKAN AKAUNTABILITI’

Reinforced Fill Structures Fig.6 - Min FOS against various ulti mate limit states - external stability.

by Ir Neoh Cheng Aik

1.

Introduction Reinforced fill structures mean struc tures with vertical or near vertical face (B > 70°) which compresses tensile and shall include any connections and any facing ensure stability. There has been an increasing extensive use of reinforced fill structures to replace conventional R.C. Walls for road projects in Malaysia since early 80'. There are at least 5 different reinforced fill structure systems available In Malaysia market. The rehability and durability aspects of these systems with particular reference to reinforcing ele ments, fills, facings, connections etc are quite doubtful due to lack of acceptance criteria and approval procedure. This paper will briefly discuss the foundamental concept of reinforced fill structures, compare the differences between various common systems avail able and subsequently propose mini mum design requirements for reinforced fill structures.

Tujuan Mesyuarat Tujuan mesyuarat ialah:1. Membincang definition baru untuk 'rock & excavation of rock'. 2.

Membincang definition of unsuitable material and removal/replacement of unsuitable material.

3.

Membincang cadangan baru concrete road kerb.

Definition of Rock & Excavation of Rock Ir Neoh explained various typical definitions of rock by geologist, engineers & QS. For works specification purpose, definition of rock should be :SIMPLE easily understood by contractors & site supervisors; only simple test by equipment easily available; no expert knowledge is required in interpretation. PRECISEclear-cut, objective and specific in nature; minimum personal discretion is required in interpretation & decision. REALISTIC realistic in reflecting cost of excavation & time (within a reasonably accurate margin). Ir Neoh also informed that when rock is encountered in bulk excavation, it can usually be loosened by:drilling & blasting (use explosives or chemicals) ripping (use D7, D8 or DO). excavating by powerful hydraulic excavator (effective and practical only for soft rock)

pneumatic tools (slow, < 5m3/hr). wedges & sledge; hammers (very slow, practical only for small quantity of rock). combination of the above. Cost effective method for rock excavation depends on:type of rock degree of weathering joints/discontinuities (spacing) zon (intact/sheared/faulted) - quantities/volume time constraint environmental and site constraints Ir Neoh briefed the meeting that the existing JKR Spec. for definition of rock is basically any hard material that CANNOT be ripped by a tractor of 20 tonnes & 200 bhp. With rip per. In other words, any hard material that can be ~ ripped by the specified tractor with rip per is NOT rock and this included grade 3 and 4 rock which can be ripped and then exca vated by large excavator or shovel; but the output is quite low (5 to 20 m3/hr) and the unit cost can be in the range of RM5 to RM15 per metre cube. The main complaints about the, existing JKR Standard Specification for rock excavation are:Excavation of rock does not include excavation of hard material which requires rip ping or large excavator. Excavation of hard material can be 2 to 5 times more costly than common excavation. Work delay due to dispute on whether the excavation is rock or common. Ir Neoh suggested 2 proposals or amendments to the existing JKR Standard Specification for Road Works Subsection 2.2.1 (f), (g) about definition of rock and hard materials and Subsection 2.2.3.7 about excavation of rock. After detailed discussions 4 possible proposals are included for further consideration (see Lampiran A). Proposal 1

Basically this proposal recommended 3 types of excavation for earthworks:(a) Rock Excavation - rock is defined as hard material that cannot be ripped by track-type tractor with ripper of 20 tonnes & 200 bhp. (the existing definition remains unchanged). (b)

Hard Excavation

- any hard material that requires to be loosened by tracktype tractor with ripper (20 tonnes & 200 bhp) or track type hydraulic excavator (30 tonnes and minimum 165 flywheel hp.).

- excavation that can be effectively excavate by normal excavators, shovel (> 10 m'/hr.). This proposal did not change the definition of rock in the existing specification except that the excavation of rippable material such as grade 3 or 4 rocks were classified as hard mate rial/excavation. (c)

Common Excavation

PROPOSAL 2

Basically this proposal changes the definition of rock to include hard material and 3 types Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

Design_Review Checklist For Road Projects

of excavations in earthworks are:(a) Class 1 Rock Excavation shall include loosening the rock by drilling and blasting with suitable explosives or chemicals. (b)

Class 2 Rock Excavation shall include loosening the rock by ripping with a track type tractor with ripper (20 tones & 200 bhp) or using track-type hydraulic excavator (> 16.5 flywheel horse power & 30 tones).

(c)

Common Excavation Excavation of materials that cannot be classified as rock.

Proposal 3

This proposal has 2 types of excavation i.e.:- Rock is defined as hard material that in the opinion of the (a) Rock Excavation S.O. requires to be loosened by blasting. (b)

Common Excavation

- Excavation of all materials that cannot be classified as rock i.e. excavation of materials which in the opinion of the S.O., no blasting is required.

Proposal 4

This proposal combined the concepts of Proposal 1 & 3 and also has 3 types of excavation for earthworks i.e. (a) Rock Excavation - Rock is defined as hard material that required to be loos ened by blasting AND in the opinion of the S.O. cannot or not practical be ripped by tractor with ripper (20 tones, 200 bhp). (b)

Hard Excavation

(c)

Common Excavation

- Hard material, in the opinions of the S.O. requires to be loosened by tractor with ripper (20 tones, 200 bhp) OR track-type hydraulic excavator (min. 30 tones, 165 fly wheel hp.)

- Excavation of any materials which cannot be classified as rock or hard material. Dato' Pengerusi directed that the above 4 proposals with details should be referred to Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Spesifikasi for final selection as soon as possible. Tindakan : JPK (R) 4.

Definition of Unsuitable Material Ir Neoh informed the rriieeting that the excavated material/soil from cut or borrows may be unsuitable as a fill material because it is too peaty (low shear strength, etc.) or too wet or contains undesirable/hazardous materials, etc. Generally the definition for unsuitable material as given in Subsection 2.2.1 (d) of the existing JKR Standard Specification for Road Works is satisfactory except that the so defined unsuitable material may be suitable as a fill material for low embankment especially when the moisture is low. Slight amendment is proposed as shown in Lampiran B.

Design_Review Checklist For Road Projects

Removal of Unsuitable Material The amount or depth of unsuitable material required to be removed and replaced before construction of embankment or culverts depends on:conditions/shear strength of the subsoil height of embankment method and rate of filling tolerable limit of post construction settlement The details about locations/chainages and the respective design depth for removal & replacement of unsuitable material should be clearly shown on drawings if detail SI is avail able, otherwise criteria to determine depth of removal of unsuitable material for various possible cases should be indicated on drawing. Drawings with notes such as "actual depth of removal of unsuitable material to be decided at site by the S.O." without indicating the design criteria is not acceptable and usually ends up a lot of VO and disputes. Backfilling of the void created by the removal of unsuitable material SHOULD be carried out immediately with SUITABLE MATERIAL. In case the Contractor does not backfilI immediately, sand backfill may be necessary if the void created by the removal of unsuit able material is full of water due to rain or high water table & permeable sub-soil. In such case, the additional cost (if any) due to backfiliing with sand instead of suitable material should be borne by the Contractor. The amended specification for subsection 2.2.3.4 (Removal of Unsuitable Material to take care of these situations is shown in Lampiran B).

6.

Replacement of Unsuitable Material Under Standing Water Free draining material such as sand and crushed rock or mixture shall be used to fill up the void due to removal of unsuitable material if the area is under standing water -eg. ponds/lakes or water course if the pumping or water diversion is not practical. Subsection 2.2.3.5 of the Specification is amended as shown in Lampiran B.

7.

Standard Concrete Road Kerbs Kerbs are used to delineate the edges of carriageway, to separate carriageway from pedestri an areas, to support the edge of the pavement etc. The existing Std. JKR Road Kerbs for Road works are shown on Drg. No. KPKR/J/R/STD/AM 311. These kerbs are classified into .4 types i.e. barrier, semi-barrier, mountable & semi-mountable. These kerbs are 225 mm to 75 mm high. The proposed new road kerbs are more user-friendly and generally lower, 150 mm to 40 mm in height as shown in Lampiran C. The drainage outlets are part of the drainage design and not included in the road kerb details. Barrier type should riot be used for high speed road; it is recommeded for raised footpath (pedestrian ) along the road with operating speed less than 70 kph. Mountable kerb is appli cable for traffic islands (on the approach noses of exposed islands); pedestrian or footpath crossing near traffic junctions etc. Semi-mountable kerbs are the standard kerb to be used for delineation and drainage on all intersections etc. Ir Neoh explained that the proposed new design of road kerbs has incorporated the follow

ing features directed by ICPKR:1) The new kerbs are generally lower & more user-friendly.

8.

2)

The new kerbs are more. pleasing and have better aesthetic appearance.

3)

Kerb size and joint tolerances are clearly specified to ensure consistent quality and aesthetic appearance.

Penutup The definition of rock, unsuitable material and road kerbs were presented and discussed. The proposed amendments to the Standard Specification for Road Works will be referrer,) to Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Spesifikasi for final decision. Suggestions and comments, if any were requested to send to Cawangan Jalan as soon as possible.
