6. Provide chamfers of 40 mm x 40 mm <strong>for</strong> corners of all submerged elements if they are not<br />

streamlined.<br />

7. Provide vent holes of 100 mm dia (with PVC pipes) to reduce the uplift pressure on superstructure<br />

during submergence, their minimum number being, three per span in both directions.<br />

A4 Ancillary Items (Wearing coat, Railing, Kerbs, Warning signs, Flood gauges)<br />

1. Provide 75 mm thick C.C. wearing coat in M30 grade with a cross slope of 2.5 per cent towards d/<br />

s side of deck slab in submergible bridge. For vented causeways adopt 200 mm thick RCC Slab.<br />

2. Discontinue wearing coat at expansion joint locations. Extend joint fillers upto the top of wearing<br />

coat.<br />

3. For CC wearing coat, provide 8 mm dia bars @ 200 mm c/c reducing to 100 mm c/c in both<br />

directions over a strip length of 300 mm near expansion joint.<br />

4. Use open type or filler joint with appropriate nose protection.<br />

5. Use metal railing of collapsible or removable or tubular type <strong>for</strong> submersible bridges.<br />

6. Use discontinuous kerbs 300 mm wide at 1.8 m c/c on both sides, the continuous length of each<br />

piece being 1.5 m.<br />

7. Locate advance warning/cautionary signs at about 200 m from the beginning of submerged portion<br />

of causeways and submersible bridges, to indicate speed limit, depth of submergence etc.<br />

8. Install flood gauges at 15 m intervals on submerged section of approaches and submersible bridges,<br />

regarding depth of flow above road level bridge deck.<br />

B. <strong>Quality</strong> Control Requirements<br />

Various components of flush and vented causeways besides submersible bridges shall con<strong>for</strong>m to<br />

relevant provisions of the MORD Specifications and IS Codes listed below:<br />
