mentioned in Schedule ‘F’, or the re-scheduled milestone(s) in terms of
Clause 5.4, the amount shown against that milestone shall be withheld, to
be adjusted against the compensation levied as above.
With-holding of this amount on failure to achieve a milestone, shall be
automatic without any notice to the contractor. However, if the contractor
catches up with the progress of work on the subsequent milestone(s), the
withheld amount shall be released. In case the contractor fails to make up

moorum, shingle, river or nallah bed boulders, siding of roads, paths etc. and hard core,
macadam surface of any description (water bound, grouted tarmac etc.), lime concrete, mud
concrete and their mixtures which for excavation yields to application of picks, showels,
jumper, scarifiers, ripper and other manual digging implements.
ii. Ordinary rock: Generally any rock which can be excavated by splitting with crow bars or picks
and does not require blasting, wedging or similar means for excavation such as lime stone, sand
stone, hard laterite, hard conglomerate and unreinforced cement concrete below ground level. If
required light blasting may be resorted to for loosening the materials but this will not in any way
entitle the material to be classified as „Hard rock‟.
iii. Hard rock: Generally any rock or boulder for the excavation of which blasting is required
such as quartzite, granite, basalt, reinforced cement concrete (reinforcement to be cut
through but not separated from concrete) below ground level and the like.
