    This document provides general notes and requirements for structural drawings and construction. It includes notes on dimensions, live loads, abbreviations, protection of existing structures, submittals, and foundation details. Foundation notes specify an allowable soil bearing capacity, that the water table was not encountered, requirements to lower and restore the water table during excavation, and protection of retaining walls and foundation concrete. Shop drawings must be submitted and approved before fabrication. Test results for materials must also be submitted for approval.

    G.8 The contractor shall provide all measures and precautions necessary to prevent settlement or damage of
    adjacent existing or new construction.
    G.9 Details not shown in drawings shall be in accordance with standard details as in British Standard or ACI
    detailing manual.
    G.10 The construction load on the floors should not exceed the specified live loads during any stage of

    floor before construction of the floor.
    G.11 Shop drawings for reinforcing steel and structural steel shall be submitted and approved by the Engineer before
    fabrication may proceed.
    G.12 Test results for Cement, Sand, Aggregate and Reinforcement shall be submitted to the consultant for approval.

    Foundation notes:

    F.1 The allowable net Soil bearing capacity is 170 KN/m2 on the depth of footings (1.5 m).
    F.2 There were no underground water table according to Soil Mechanics report.
    F.3 Lowering of the water table level must be accomplished as the excavation proceeds. It is recommended that the
    ground water level is maintained at least 0.50m below the center of excavation while it remains open restoring the
    ground water table to its initial position should be made once the weight of structure exceeds hydrostatic uplift and once
    condition as in note (F.1) is fulfilled. (with no additional cost)
    F.4 No back fill shall be placed against retaining walls unless the walls are sufficiently braced to prevent
    movement of structural damage.
    F.6 All foundation and sub-structure concrete/block work to be protected by 1000G polythene and 2 coats of cold
    bitumen, and as per contract specifications (submitted to the Engineer's for approval).
    F.7 In case proposed foundation level is deeper than the adjacent structure foundations, the contractor should
    consult the consultant to decide the depth of foundation. The foundation depth may vary according to the site’s
    condition.
