correspond with the rates written either in figures or in words, then the rate

quoted by the Bidder in words shall be taken as correct

(c) When the rate quoted by the Bidder in figures and in words tallies but the

amount is not worked out correctly, the rates quoted by the Bidder shall be

taken as correct and not the amount

[ In event no rate has been quoted for any item(s), leaving space both in

figure(s), word(s) and amount blank, it will be presumed that the Bidder has

included the cost of this/ these item(s) in other items and rate for such

item(s) will be considered as zero and work will be required to be executed

accordingly ]

(d) In the case of percentage rate tender, the Bidders are required to quote their

rates both in amount as well as in the percentage below/above the rates

entered in the schedule. In such cases in the event of arithmetical error

Deviations of the Conditions of Contract, during the period of implementation of the

Contract, will not be taken into account in Bid evaluation.

32.4 If the Bid of the successful Bidder is seriously unbalanced in relation to the

Engineer-in-charge or his representative’s estimate of the cost of work to be

executed under the contract, the Corporation may require the Bidder to produce

detailed rate analyses for any or all items of the Bill of Quantities, to demonstrate

the internal consistency of those rates with the implementation/construction

contractors working at the site. Such unsafe acts may also pose danger to the

existing installations and even to members of public. This guide is prepared to

facilitate safe working during execution of contract works. It is hoped that units of

DAE may issue this guide as a part of contract documents while awarding contracts.

2. GENERAL SAFETY PROVISIONS 2.1 The Contractor shall take all safety precautions during the execution of awarded

work and shall maintain and leave the site safe at all times. At the end of each

working day and at all times when the work is temporarily suspended, he shall

ensure that all materials, equipment and facilities will not, cause damage to

existing property, personal injury or interfere with the other works of the project or

Station. The contractor shall comply with all applicable provisions of the safety

regulations, clean up programme and other measures that are in force at the site.

2.2 The Contractor shall provide and maintain all lights, guards, fencing, warning

signs, caution boards and other safety measures and provide for vigilance as and

given by the Safety Engineer or his authorized nominee regarding safety

precautions, protective measures, house keeping requirements, etc. The Safety

Engineer with due intimation to Engineer-in-Charge shall have the right to stop the

work of the Contractor, if in his opinion proceeding with the work will lead to an

unsafe and dangerous condition. Engineer-in-Charge shall get the unsafe

condition removed or provide protective equipment at the contractors cost. The

contractor can employ his own safety Engineer or nominate one of his officers for

liaison with Departmental Safety Engineer for ensuring compliance of all safety

rules. Contractor shall ensure that all his workmen are aware about the nature of

risk involved in their work and have adequate training for carrying out their work

safely.

and shall be suitably guarded as described in 3.3 above.

4.7 The Planks used for working platform shall not project beyond the end supports to

a distance exceeding four times the thickness of the planks used. The planks shall

be rigidly tied at both ends to prevent sliding and slippage. The thickness of the planks shall be adequate to take load of men and materials

and shall not collapse.

4.8 Every opening in the floor of a building or in a working platform shall be provided

with suitable means to prevent fall of persons or materials by providing suitable

fencing or railing, the minimum height of which shall be 1.0m, along with 15 cm

high sheet obstruction at floor level along the railing.

4.9 Safe means of access shall be provided to all working platforms and other elevated

working places. Every ladder shall be securely fixed. No single portable ladder

shall be over 9m in length. For ladders upto 3m in length the width between side

rails in the ladder shall in no case be less than 300mm. For longer ladders this



width shall be increased by at least 20mm for each additional metre of length.

Step spacing shall be uniform and shall not exceed 300 mm. 4.10 Adequate precautions shall be taken to prevent danger from electrical lines and

equipment. No scaffolding, ladder, working platform, gangway runs, etc. shall exist

within 3 metres of any uninsulated electric wire. Whenever electric power and

lighting cables are required to run through, (pass on) the scaffolding or electrical

equipments are used, such scaffolding structures shall have minimum two earth

connections with earth continuity conforming to IS code of practice.

5. EXCAVATION, TRENCHING AND EARTH REMOVAL 5.1 All Trenches 1.2 m or more in depth shall at all times be supplied with at least one

ladder for each spacing of 30m in length or fraction thereof. Ladder shall be

extended from bottom of the trench to at least 1m above the surface of the ground.

5.2 The sides of the trench which are 1.2m or more in depth shall be stepped back to

give suitable slope (angle of repose) or securely held by timber bracing, so as to

avoid the danger of sides from collapsing. The excavated material shall not be

placed within 1.5m of the edges of the trench or half of the depth of the trench,

whichever is more. Cutting shall be done from top to bottom. Under no

circumstances mining or under-cutting shall be done.

5.3 The Contractor shall ensure the stability and safety of the excavation, adjacent
