5. The works in brick or stone masonry or in RCC are carried out as per the sections 600, 700 and<br />
1200 respectively.<br />
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 />
1. Material<br />
