39. Client Observation - 03: Necessary steps on horizontal & vertical deviation on PHC
piles
REPLY- 03 FROM CRBC-EEL CONSORTIUM:
CRBC-EEL Consortium’s representative sending data and other related necessary information to consultant
representative of BRTC, BUET through email. Out of 952 piles, we already send data for 730 nos. piles (in Bays C, D,
E, F, G and H). See attachment in Annex-I. We have sent these data to 34ECBDE, Team Leader of top supervision
consultant & other members of BRTC, BUET as well as PM of supervision consultant.
BAY – A: Yet not done, because another contractor of PCT project is engaged for ground improvement work.
BAY – B: not done, because another contractor of PCT project is engaged for ground improvement work.
BAY – C: Sending data through mail dated on 25th July,2020. (Total no. of pile = 122 nos)
BAY – D Sending data through mail dated on 31st March,2020. (Total no. of pile = 122 nos)
BAY – E: Sending data through mail dated on 14th March,2020. (Total no. of pile = 111 nos)
BAY – F: Sending data through mail dated on 14th December,2019. (Total no. of pile = 111 nos)
BAY – G: Sending data through mail dated on 30th December,2019. (Total no. of pile = 128 nos)
BAY – H: Sending data through mail dated on 15th January,2020. (Total no. of pile = 136 nos)

40. A MEETING WAS HELD AT THE DEPARTMENT OF CIVIL ENGINEERING, BUET DATED ON 8TH SEPTEMBER, 2018
(MINUTES IS ATTACHED IN ANNEX-II), AND IT WAS DECIDED THAT CHINESE STANDARD WILL BE
FOLLOWED/ACCEPTED WHERE DEVIATION LIMIT AS FOLLOWS:

41.  An analysis of the (radial) deviation of the pile position, based on the provided data, is attached in Annex-III.
It shows that about 1.1% of these piles (out of 730 nos. piles) have a deviation greater than the tolerable
limit of 250 mm (As per Chinese Standard that is approved on 8th September, 2018 at BUET meeting).

42. • Since, another contractor is working at Bay-A and at Bay-B, so we cannot move our crane to these bays &
thereby we can’t take deviation data for rest 222 nos. of piles. As soon as we get access to these two bays,
we will take deviation data and submit to BUET accordingly. 77% (730/952) of pile deviation data is shared
with BUET. Also, out of 730 pile deviation data, only 8 nos. pile have a deviation greater than acceptable
limit of 250 mm (accuracy 722/730 = 98.90%).
• It has been decided in the meeting which was held at the department of Civil Engineering, BUET dated on
1st September, 2020 that “a Third-party survey team (approved by BRTC, BUET)” is engaged and they will
conduct survey for vertical alignment of PHC pile. And if necessary, they can check deviation of pile as well.

43. Client Observation - 04: Quality assurance on pile cap casting
REPLY- 04 FROM CRBC-EEL CONSORTIUM:
• It is mentionable that till now CRBC-EEL Consortium has completed concreting works of 514 nos. (55%) pile cap
in presence of client representative (34 EC BDE) and consultant representative (BRTC, BUET) as well. Out of 936
nos. pile cap, presence of moderate honeycomb formations was found in 05 nos. (0.97%) pile caps.
• Reference to email dated on 17th July,2020, we have already submitted “method statement i/c technical data
sheet of Rendoroc HS Xtra” to client (34 EC BDE). Also, we have repaired a pile cap in presence of consultant’s
representative (BRTC, BUET) dated on 19th July, 2020. We have also provided sample photographs of repaired
honeycomb in pile cap (Annex-IV)
• We are really dis-hearted for the comments of the surface honeycomb of pile cap. We have achieved almost 64%
of the project progress (as per revised BOQ). Is it possible to work in a such complicated project for an
unprofessional contractor without technically sound manpower? Concrete is a very unpredictable material.
Honeycomb type problem is very common in concreting work. We have to work day & night considering many
factors such as high-tide/low-tide, frequent tropical rain etc.

44. Client Observation - 05: Impact of deviation of pile alignment
REPLY- 05 FROM CRBC-EEL CONSORTIUM:
As per approved meeting minutes which was held on 8th September,2018 which is attached in Annex-II and
also as per Chinese Standard, we have analysis the radial deviation of the pile position with respect to
provided data, which is attached in Annex-III and it was found about 1.1% (08 nos.) piles have a deviation
greater than the tolerable limit of 250 mm. And these 08 nos. piles are located in different bays.

45. Client Observation - 06: Future difficulties of precast segment placing in jetty
REPLY- 06 FROM CRBC-EEL CONSORTIUM:
 A detail shop drawing (soft copy) using AutoCAD was submitted to client (34 EC BDE) and also consultant
representative (BRTC, BUET) through email with respect to each bay before starting construction of jetty
works.
 After completion of pile driving work, the shop detail has updated using the installed pile location and
necessary modification has also updated where it was required and submitted to consultant representative
(BRTC, BUET) for approval. Pile cap casting was done by adjusting of pile cap top to attain the desired slope
of top surface as per original design.
 After completion of pile cap with proper levels, the shop detail is updated phase by phase to fix the
dimension and size of precast elements (such as slabs & girder) with proper seating arrangement.
 After placing of precast girder on proper seating location with proper levels, cast in situ girder casting work
is ongoing at site phase by phase to fix the dimension and size as per approved design with respect to
reference grid line.
 Till now no abnormal issue has occurred. If required any modification or changes, contractor will do the
necessary change of precast elements after taking approval from client (34 EC BDE) and also from
supervision consultant (BRTC, BUET) through shop drawing (soft copy) using AutoCAD.

46. Client Observation - 07: Absence of lead partner
REPLY- 07 FROM CRBC-EEL CONSORTIUM:
Most of the time during construction, lead partner representatives of CRBC-EEL Consortium was present in
construction site. But very recently due to spreading situation of COVID-19, they are unable to present in
construction site for few days. We communicate with them and they will come back very soon at PCT site.
Client Observation - 08: INABILITY TO PRODUCE SHOP DRAWING OF JETTY
REPLY- 08 FROM CRBC-EEL CONSORTIUM:
 Time to time, we have to submit shop drawing for approval from client (34 EC BDE) and also from consultant
representative (BRTC, BUET) before starting construction of jetty works.
 Till now we have successfully completed 64% jetty works with quality with respect to approved shop
drawing.
 As per consultant (BRTC, BUET) opinion and also as per their suggestion, we will find out the more effective
way and also apply it to improve our shop drawing ability. And also, we will engage more CAD professional to
produce shop drawing effectively

47. Client Observation - 09: INABILITY TO GENERATE AND SUBMIT PROPER “ALTERNATE DESIGN
DRAWINGS”, AND FOLLOW UP ON INSTRUCTIONS.
REPLY- 09 FROM CRBC-EEL CONSORTIUM:
As per consultant (BRTC, BUET) opinion and also as per their suggestion, we will find out the more effective
way for generating “alternate design drawings”.

48. Client Observation - 10: INABILITY TO SHARE DATA (DEVIATION, VERTICALITY OF DRIVEN
PILES) AND TEST REPORTS
REPLY- 10 FROM CRBC-EEL CONSORTIUM:
 CRBC-EEL Consortium representative send deviation data and other related other information to consultant
representative, BRTC, BUET through email. Out of 952 driven pile, 730 nos. PHC pile data (in Bays C, D, E, F, G and H) is
attached in Annex-I. Here client (34 EC BDE) and Team leader of BRTC, BUET with his team member were available in
that email.
 Simultaneously it was not possible to collect data for BAY-A & BAY-B by using crane because another contractor of PCT
project was engaged for ground improvement work. After completion their work, we will take immediate action to
collect necessary all data and accordingly send it to you for your necessary information and action please.
 We already provide the following test reports to client (34 EC BDE) and consultant representative, BRTC, BUET phase by
phase which is attached in Annex-V.
a) Concrete cylinder observation test report for every concrete element,
b) Pile integrity test report on PHC pile,
c) High strain dynamic test report on PHC pile,
d) Static load test report on 06 nos. trial piles,
e) Any other necessary report etc.

49. Client Observation - 11: PILE LOAD TESTING – NOT ACCORDING TO SPECIFICATION AND
BOQ
REPLY- 11 FROM CRBC-EEL CONSORTIUM:
 We have executed 06 nos. static load test on additional trial piles and report was
submitted to client (34 EC BDE) and consultant representative, BRTC, BUET.
 There is no provision of Static Load Test in our approved BOQ.
 As per Chinese Standard, there is no provision to do static load test on service
pile.
 We will do the static load test (to be applied up to 1.5 times the design capacity)
on the service piles on the following conditions:
a) If there is any scope to do the static load test.
b) If required any modification or changes or re-arrangement for the effects of
static load test execution on service pile, there is any scope or not.
c) If client (34 EC BDE) and consultant BRTC, BUET gives work execution approval.
d) Rate approval is essential for execution of newly static load test on service pile.

50. Client Observation - 12: QUALITY OF MANPOWER OF CRBC-EEL CONSORTIUM AND THE
IMPLEMENTING AGENCY.
REPLY- 12 FROM CRBC-EEL CONSORTIUM:
As per consultant (BRTC, BUET) opinion and also as per their suggestion, CRBC-EEL Consortium will deploy
additionally qualified manpower in the field to increase the productivity maintaining quality.

51. Client Observation – 1 (Part – A): Work Progress of jetty work
REPLY- 1 (Part – A) FROM CRBC-EEL CONSORTIUM:

52. REPLY- 1 (Part – B) FROM CRBC-EEL CONSORTIUM:
• Unavailability of space for construction of precast segment.
• Delay in PHC pile design approval.
• Delay in tie rod approval and subsequently delay in commencement of retaining structure.
• Delay in Pilot jetty, Buoy and anchor chain removal from different Bays.
• Delay due to natural phenomena such as Cyclone Fani, Cyclone Amphan, tropical rain and tidal effects etc.
• Delay in pile cap decision and its approval.
• Delay in lapping decision for CIS girder.
• Unavailability of worker due to bad effects of COVID-19.
• High mast tower decision not yet get approval.
• Placing of Riprap decision yet not settled. As a result, it is not possible to go for precast slab placing on girder.
• Utility design and decision yet not finalized.
• Due to unavailability of space, it is not possible to go for any more precast slab casting.
• De – shuttering and de – staging works not possible in time due to decision problem. As a result, these materials are
rusted due to long time stay under saline water and simultaneously we have to increase shuttering and staging materials
to increase the work productivity and complete the work in time and hence finally cost and time schedule both are
increased.
Client Observation – 1 (Part – B): Problem facing during works:
