Settling Basin

Hi guyz..

Long time no see haa..huhu

So now i continue from my previous post.

erm... how to construct Settling Basin?

1) Excavation work - You have to aware that you'll found
lots of boulders in the ground, therefore you must
prepare costing for rock blasting. Before any excavation, you have to
produce a OGL (original ground level) that endorsed by
qualified surveyor. It is because the OGL will be
a guideline for claim purpose later on. From the OGL,
QS will calculate the amount excavated area.
When you want to start any excavation, bare at mind
that maybe in the future you will need the excavated
soil for backfill later or the rock boulders will
gonna use later on in the other construction.
Therefore you have to dump the soil or rock
that you already excavated at dumping area.

2) Check Settling basin ground level. The engineer have
to check and sure that the excavation is reach until
required level. It is very important to aware on level
because if the level is not reach at required level,
we will not get enough energy as per want we want.

3) Hardcore + Sand Blinding - The best way to avoid any wastage is to have
formwork for every perimeter of the area. You also have to construct a drain
every perimeter for water running to avoid flood in the area.


4) Compacting - To make sure it is well compact especially at edge of slab because
the edge of slab will sustain settling basin wall. it is massive load to carry at
the edge of slab.

5) Lean Concrete -
