PROJECT BACKGROUND
Essar Steel Orissa Limited (ESOL) is establishing Steel Pellet Plant in
Paradeep, Orissa to produce 12 MTPA Steel Pellets.
Primary Objective:- Essar is planning to cater the captive demand of pellets
in Essar Plant at Hazira (ESHL) using the pellets produced from the Paradeep
plant using beneficiated slurry of 58-59 %Fe.
Stage 1
Beneficiation plant of 2 x 4 MTPA
Slurry Pipeline of 12 MTPA
Pellet Plant 1 x 6 MTPA

FOUNDATION
• Foundation is the lowest part of a structure which
provides a base for the superstructure.
• This term includes the portion of the structure
below the ground level as well as the
arrangement of concrete block, piles, raft,
grillage, etc. that are provided to transmit the
loads on the structure including self weight of the
footing itself to the soil below.
NICMAR HYDERABAD
• Foundation – Purpose
• It is used to transmit the load of the structure to
the soil below.
• To distribute the weight of the structure over
large area so as to avoid over-loading of the soil
beneath.
• To load the substratum evenly & thus prevent
unequal settlement.
• To take the structure deep into the ground & thus
increase its stability, preventing overturning.

• Salient Features of piles in the site
• Composition of pile : Concrete pile – M35 Grade
• Method of installation : Bored cast in situ
• Based on function : Friction Bearing pile
• Method of Boring : Direct Mud Circulation (DMC)
• Length of the pile : 23m below cut off level
• Diameter of piles : 450mm, 500mm, 600mm
• Total no. of piles : 539
• Sub contractor – Bhagaban Mohapatra Constructions

Process of boring a pile shaft
NICMAR HYDERABAD
• Steps to be taken care while boring a pile
• Ensure that the rigs are placed exactly on the pile
point.
• While lowering the reinforcement care should be
taken to ensure the lap length to be 50D
• Before washing, the density of bentonite to be
checked by using hydrometer
• The density of bentonite slurry should be in
between 1.03 gm/ml to 1.10 gm/ml
NICMAR HYDERABAD
• USE OF BENTONITE IN PILING
• In order to keep the sides of the bore intact bentonite is used for drilling by
suspending it in water to form a viscous material.
• Bentonite suspensions begin to take on the characteristics of a gel
• For these reasons it is a common component of drilling mud used to curtail
drilling fluid invasion and stabilise the bore.
• All bentonites have a capacity to exchange cations.
• Suggestions
• Mixing of bentonite should be done by Agitator rather than manual mixing.

• Concreting
NICMAR HYDERABAD
• The volume of the concrete hopper is 0.86Cum.
• For 450mm diameter pile
• Volume of concrete for 1m = 0.159m3
• For 500mm diameter pile
• Volume of concrete for 1m = 0.196m3
• For 600mm diameter pile
• Volume of concrete for 1m = 0.283m3
NICMAR HYDERABAD
• The length of one tremie pipe is 1.6m
• For 600mm diameter volume for 1m = 0.283m3
• Therefore for 1.6m volume of concrete = 0.453m3
• But the volume of concrete in the hopper is 0.86m3
• So at time one tremie pipe can be removed from the
pile shaft of 600mm diameter.
NICMAR HYDERABAD
• For 500mm diameter pile
• Volume of concrete for 1m = 0.196m3
• Therefore for 1.6m volume of concrete = 0.3136m3
• Volume of concrete hopper = 0.86m3
• So at a time two tremie pipes can be removed from
the pile shaft.
