Method Statement for Airport way finding signage at Muscat

International Airport
Introduction
This method statement covers the carrier pipe Drive at Sewri Railway Crossing between shaft
no 1 to 2.The 800mm Diameter R.C.C pipe drive will start from shaft no 1 to 2
The approximate tunnel length is 80 meter. Drive will be in the gradient of 1:760
The proposed invert level of the tunnel at the entry to shaft no 1 is 23.823m
The proposed invert level of the tunnel the exit from shaft no 2 is 23.722m

The annulus between the casing pipe and the carrier pipe will be 240 mm .

Construction Method and Sequence


After complete the casing pipe drive, need to clean inside of the pipe for pour the M30 grade
concrete. It will be the base of carrier pipe.
The base concrete should be minimum 600mm width and 120mm height at center, and it
should be throughout the full length of casing pipe.
After complete the first carrier pipe drive, need to hold the pipe with locking cylinder for
connecting the second one. It will continue up to the end of the pipe jacking.
Fixing steel bars on top of pipes for holding them (c-Shape bars, 12mm dia 500mm long) to
prevent the separation of pipes during the drive
After complete the drive, both the end of annulus space should be closed by bricks and will
keep 2” diameter hole for fix the grouting pipe at both ends and also keep 2” diameter holes at
inside the alternative carrier pipes for the grouting.
Annulus space in between casing pipe and carrier pipe should be filled with cement grouting.
Grouting pump will use for the same.
After complete the grouting, all the concerned machineries should be removed from the shaft
and start the preparations for Manhole Construction.
