Discription
Cyclopean concrete shall be constructed with a mixture of a 60% plain concrete and 40% large
stones (variable size between 10 and 25 centimeters). Concrete shall be proportioned tp 200 kg
cement per 1 m3. The plain concrete to be used in this job shall have a minimum resistence of
180 kg/cm2 on the 28th day the materials should be saturated before creating the mixture.
Stony materials will comply with the ASTM standard and dosage will be according to concrete
design.
In the first step, the contractor shall apply a plain concrete layer of 15 centimeter depth and
subsequently a layer of stone shall be placed manually on top. The spaces between the stones
will not be less than 5 centimeters in any of the rows and from structure adges. The next step
is to place another layer of plain concrete and the same procedure is followed until the desired
height is reached.
Materials
Plain Concrete
Plain concrete results from mixing coarse, arid materials of up to 5 cm in diameter
(nominal) and fine, arid materials joined by a paste of water and cement.
To obtain good, strong, long-lasting and cheap concrete, the following items should be
closely monitored:
Material Quality
Dosage of components
Management,placing and concrete setting
The dosage of plain concrete varies in accordance with the type of work that its's going
to be used on:
The concrete shall be mix by mechanical vibration, except for small amounts (less that
100 kg) that can be made by hand. The dosage will be made by weight, using a
platform scale that allows putting a wheelbarrow of aggregate on it.
The concrete prepared in a mechanical vibration will be mixed at least for the time
indicated in the following table:
Centre bulb sections are used in expansion, constraction and cunstruction joints. The centre
bulb allows for movements in structure to be accommodate whilst its hexagonal design provides
a flat surface.
Waterstop properties
Hydrostatic head : Up to 10 m
Joint movement : Up to 10 mm
Tensile Strength : Minimum 14 MN/m2
Elongation at break : Minimum 300%
Hardness : Shore 'A' 80 - 90
Woven Geotextiles
Woven Geotextiles are some of the strongest fabrics available for erosion control, stabilization
and aggregate separation. Offering an increased grab tensile strength, woven geotextile fabrics
offer a robust design that allows them to be successfully implemented in almost any location,
including the following:
Pavement
Roads
Railroads
Structures
Rip rap
Woven Geotextile Fabric is constructed through the blending and weaving fibers. The result is a
product that is not only strong, but also remarkably well equipped to handle drainage and
erosion control problems.

Stone Masonry
a) Stone
i. Stones should be clean, hard, without cracked parts.
ii. The stone should be flat, or oval in shape, and can be placed lock each other
when istallation.
iii. The range of stone size is between diameter 15-30 cm
All stone used for this work shoul be hard,uniform in texture, locally the best available
from the nearest quarry or elsewhere approved by the site engineer / supervisor. Stone
shall be fairly regular in size and every stone shall be fitted to the adjacent stones. No
stones shall be less than15 cm in size.
b) Sand
i. Sand must consist of clean material, sharp and free from organic materials, silt,
clay.
c) Cement
i. Portland cement conforming to Indonesian Portland cement regulation NI-8 or
ASTM C-150 type 1.
d) Water
i. Water shall be clean and free from deleterious metter such as oil,acid, alkali, salt
and vegetable growth.
