    The initial survey drawings showing the levels and
    1.2 alignment of wall shall be endorsed by licensed surveyor
    before submitted for Engineer’s approval.
    The wall alignment shall be pegged at every 10m
    1.3
    intervals at site.
    Wherever there are curves or cornering of the wall, the
    1.4 wall alignment shall be pegged at every 2m intervals or
    closer at site.
    EXCAVATION/ REMOVAL OF UNSUITABLE SIGNATURE
    2.0 YES NO
    MATERIAL
    Carry out Mackintosh Probe (MP) at the foundation of the
    2.1
    wall at every 5m intervals or as directed by the Engineer.

    2.2
    longer than 24 hours after the MP tests.
    Engineer to issue instruction on depth of excavation and
    2.3
    removal of unsuitable material based on MP results.
    Carry out soil replacement with approved material after
    2.4
    removal of unsuitable material.
    Cover base of wall foundation with plastic sheets to avoid
    softening if soil replacement is not carried out
    immediately after excavation. If the contractor fails to
    2.5
    provide the plastic sheet at site, the soft material should
    be stripped out prior to the placement of suitable material
    or quarry dust.
    3.0 WALL ERECTION SIGNATURE YES NO
    3.1 Brace externally the initial row of panels.
    Connect steel reinforcements to panels, backfill and
    3.2
    compact before next row of panels are erected.
    Insert joint fillers into all the joints between the panels
    3.3
    with the help of a wooden edge.
    Place cushion pads at the slots on the top edge of each
    3.4
    panel before the installation of subsequent rows of panel.
    Check alignment and verticality of wall during erection
    3.5
    using a plumb bob.
    Check the reinforcement size and anchor block size (if
    3.6
    applicable) at site before backfilling works.
    4.0 BACKFILL AND COMPACTION SIGNATURE YES NO
    Level backfill before placing of and bolting of
    4.1
    reinforcement strips.
    Maximum loose thickness of every fill layer shall not
    exceed 375mm before compaction. Trial run should be
    4.2
    carried out at site to determine the number of passes to
    achieve the required degree of compaction.
    Keep trucks and heavy vehicles 1.5m away from the
    4.3
    back of the wall panel.
    Use hand-operated compacting machine (plate
    4.4 compactor etc.) with weight < 1 ton within 1.5m from the
    wall face for compaction.
