- SSTL-ITNL : Master Plan Project Planning new revision is still awaited for March 7th .
Despite of a good quality rock in faces 2 and 3, only 1 cycle is achieved. Also the
wrongdoing for dewatering system in faces 2 MT and ET leads to a slow excavation rates .
Too much time spent on the Main F2 toward the Western and the Escape F2 towards the
Western, because of the accumulation of water in the fronts. A letter was sent to SSTL-
ITNL by IE (See Annex 3).
Although the month rate have been increased for MT up to near 400 meters , the needed
rate of 500 meters to be consistente with the Cmpletion Schedule data has not been
achieved.
- SSTL-ITNL : Corrective measures in frontal slope Eastern Portal after the snowfalls must
be resumed urgently . A letter has been sent to SSTL-ITNL by IE (See Annex 4). The
Inclinometer in EP shows an horizontal displacement of 9 cm.
- SSTL : To Increase excavates rates in MT and ET, Reduce cycle times and increase
production through an efficient blasting scheme which can reduce the scaling time.
Applying plastic pipes for charging as well as review the detonators sequence and the unit
- SSTL Drainage for Ventilation Tunnel work units must be implementted. No conduction
and treatment of flow from Ventilation Tunnel.

DOCUMENT DISTRIBUTION
1.-Subject
The scope of the document is the analysis of the technical documents submitted by the Concessionaire for
review, an overview of setting up of construction facilities and a summary of construction activities carried
out during the month of April- 2018.
It is necessary to highlight that a Site Visit from NHIDCL was held, with the attendance of ED, GMT and GM,
and also a meeting in SSTL’s Office The Minutes of Meeting are included in Annex 6.
The solutions proposed by IE in order to reach the targets for the Completion Scheduled Date are as
follows:
1. To open new excavation faces in MT from differents Motorable Cross Passages until to complet a
minimum number of 9. Right now there are only 4 after the ground break between Face 1 and
Face 5.
2. To optimize the time spent in the different NATM activitities in order to achieve the goal of two
completed cycles per day. Right now only 1 cycle per day is achieved.
In another hand, and according to a recommendation from NHIDCL GM in Jammu to NHIDCL ED in Delhi,
the Change of Scope for Omitting the Hairpin Bend in WP ARs was recommended with an estimated cost of
60.187 Crores ( See Annex 7)
Answering the requirement from this IE the complete E&M Design Completed Package Version 3, has been
submitted by SSTL’s Designers and it is under review.
An Environment Impact Assessment Report has been delivered by SSTL and it is also under review by IE.
A Work Method Statement for the different stages in the ground break between Face 1 and Face 1A was
submitted by the Sub Contractor APCO-TITAN JV. However, no detailed explanation for ensuring the right
stiffness of the linings in all the phases was included in this report. Moreover, this IE doesn’t agree to receive
directly reports from the Sub Contractor without the Supervision and the comments from EPC-ITNL,
according to the contractual rules for this procedure.
The list of the main items analyzed is :
I. Because of an unitarelly decision from EPC-ITNL no understandable by this IE, the Subcontractor
APCO-TITAN JV started the benching of the conflictive clay segment of Main Tunnel Ch. 250 to 320.
As IE noticed this on site , a no conformity communication was sent to SSTL and Supervision Team
Grusamar for stooping this benching. However, 10 meters were already excavated at that time. As a
consequence of this the velocity of the convergence increased to 0,45 mm/day according to the ITNL
Monitoring and 0,35 mm/day according to the IE Monitoring.It means a no stabilized scenario for this clay
segment.
MPR April -2018 Page 10
II. The convergence in the benching has reached a value of 96 mm according to the IE monitoring
and a value close to 80 mm according to the ITNL Monitoring. As this value is over 80 mm and
also because of the increase of velocity a Reinforced type B or a temporary closed section for the
top heading section must be applied , according to the Contractual document “ Convergence
monitoring and acting protocol”, Chapter 4.2. A letter was sent to SSTL by IE ( See Annex 8).
III. The last readings in the inclinometer of EP which shows an horizontal movement near 90 mm, and
increase of 60 mm movement since December 2017,
According to the Contractual Document : “EP Final Design Slope Monitoring Chapter 17.2.10.Red
Scenario horizontal displacements > 3 cm, as well as the Technical Note from Designer GRU-023.EP
REINFORCEMENT, this IE reminded to SSTL the urgent mobilization of the Frontal Slope Reinforced
work units team ( See Annex 9).
IV. CO (Carbon Monoxide) ppm in ET from WP measured by IE at chainage 560+m of Escape tunnel
CO reading after 1 hour of the blast was higher (96 PPM) than the permissible limits as possible . A NCR
is still outstanding.
V. Highly Turbid water from Eastern Portal is still being directly released into River Sindh. The efforts for
construction of sedimentation tank and other treatment process for this waste water are lacking. The
said activity is breach of Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974 CHAPTER-V; Section 24
(1) (a) & 25 (1) (a & b).
VI. Convergences for the Motorable Cross Passage MCP-5 have been determined, with allowable
values and speed within the permissible range. MCP-5 horizontal movements are below 10 mm.
VII. Verification Main & Egress Tunnel Updated Excavation plan Western Portal
VIII. Verification for Main & Egress Tunnel Plan For Face-2 & Face -3.(VENTILATION CAVERN).
IX. Verification of Egress Tunnel Plan For Face-4 (EASTERN PORTAL)
X. Verification of Main Tunnel Cross Section Face-1 (CH:- 540 & 558 Face-1)
XI. Verificatio of Main Tunnel Cross Section at CH:-610 & 639 (Face-5)
XII. Verification Egress Tunnel Cross Section at CH:- 1150 & 1226 (Face-1)
XIII. Verification of Main Tunnel Cross Section at CH:-3310 & 3236 (Face-2)
XIV. Verification of Main Tunnel Cross Section at CH:-3751 & 3785(Face-3)
XV. Verification Egress Tunnel Cross Section at CH:-3330 & 3340 (Face-2)
XVI. Verification of Main Tunnel Cross Section at CH :-6412 & 6396 (Face-4)
XVII. Verification of Egress Tunnel Cross Section at CH :-6366 & 6356 (Face-4)
XVIII. Convergence by Tap Extensometer.
XIX. Convergence Velocity calculation by Tape Extensometer.
This also gives an analysis of these problems and proposed solutions for correction.
1. Design Progress :
The main design issues have been as follows. The next list of documents have been received :
th
1. SSTL Designer submitted on April 18 2018, a completed Electrical & Mechanical Package Version 3, now
under revision by IE.
rd
2. SSTL Designer has submitted on April 3 2018 the Final Lining Design in Z-Morh Tunnel.
th
3. SSTL Designer submitted on April 30 a Technical Note for the Feasibility of a third lane (climbing lane) in WP
ARs.
th
4. IE submitted on April 30 Review of the Foundations for Viaduct at Chainage 2+415
th
5. IE submitted on April 27 the Review of the Detailed Design Vehicular Underpass Ch 11+111 Rev-2.
6. Recently IE submitted the Report on Review Final Lining Design in Z-Morh Tunel V1.0
7. Recently IE submitted the Report of Climbing Lane for WP Approach Road Z-Morh Tunnel.
2. Design quality :
o Regarding to the Response for Comments the Final Design in Z-Morh Tunnel, final lining design in only
for 634 meters of main tunnel in five separate intervals (200,125,210,84 and 15 meters ) and in 590 meters
of egress tunnel is not enough to initiate final lining operations.
Final lining is the final stability verification based on observed data. For this purpose real data use is
required, but Tunnel Mapp Facing RMR descriptions, laboratory and in-situ test to determine real rock mass
properties is not included. Also use real well referenced monitoring convergence data for all sections. All
data used must be included and justified properly
In loads considered for final lining ventilation and other suspended equipment is not included. Also niches
required for jet fans have not been considered either in excavation, primary lining and final lining.
o Regarding to the Foundations for the Viaduct Ch 2+415 1. Bearing capacity value taken 43.75 t/m2
for weathered slates blocks in calculations is not consistent with Geotechnical Report from SSTL Designers
MPR April -2018 Page 12
for Minor Bridges submitted in 2013 ( recommended value 35 t/m2), as well as for the application of Brinch-
Hansen Formula for the parameters chosen ( , determined value 32 t/m2.
Also the Self Weight load for the new deck option ; Box girders means an increase of the working stress , not
only for the change of the section but also for the thickness of the slab in the composite bridge ( 30 cm
instead of 22 cm)
o Regarding to the Detailed Design for the VUP 11+111 ( In front of the EP) the main comment is that due
to a recent cutting earth works for the construction of the Abutment A1 foundation for the Major Bridge MJB
11+181, the conditions for the foundation of the VUP 11+111 has changed. Nowadays, not a Original
Ground surface with clay material is there, and a fill to reach the proposed elevation is there, which it means
that a different geotechnical parameters for the foundation design must be taken into account.
o Regarding to the Technical Note for the Feasibility of a third lane (climbing lane) in WP ARs., there is an
agreement with SSTL that, according to the analysis through the Highway Capacity Manual, a climbing lane
is needed for the slow traffic. This issue was raised by this IE on 2016 , but in that moment there were
problems for the additional land acquisition of this third lane. However , nowadays it have been overcome.
Project Planning :
The rates for Main Tunnel Excavation Tunnel 240 meters/ month are below the rates need 450 meters
per day according to the ending dates for top heading tunnel Excavation included in Project Planning
submitted by SSTL on February 3rd 2018.
In a good rock mass like the rock appeared in Face 2 and Face 3 only 1 cycle is achieved , because
a lack of logistics in pumping, dewatering as well as shortage of resources.
For the ET, the achieved rate 366 meters/month is closed to the needed 380 meters/month ratio
Still the resources for critical path activities : Boomer drilling machines, trucks, shotcrete machines,
loaders, must be increased in a 50% percentage in order to achieve this target. Only 1 Boomer has
been arrived at Site on April-2018
Present rock quality are good in WP faces, very good in VT faces, medium in egress tunnel EP face and
bad in MT EP face. Only 140 meters in WP main tunnel, actual 14.5 m in MT EP face and 30 m of Egress
in EP has presented bad rock quality. Probably, based only in a surface survey, a 5%-10% of the MT
pending 5000 m of excavation will have bad or very bad rock. Considering a forced excavation ratio of
Monitoring :
Measures of convergences through extensometer device have been made along for Ventilation Tunnel ,
Escape Tunnel and Main Tunnel by IE Team.
Maximum covergence measured in MT has been 96 mm ( Top Heading Stage Ch 0+260, 60 mm
according to ITNL Survey )
The maximum convergence value for the benching stage measured has been 7 mm ( Benching Stage Ch
0+240).
Maximums convergences measured in ET has been 11 mm in Ch 710 ( Full Section )
Maximum convergence measured in VT has been 32 mm (Ch 0+535 Full Section Stage)
For the ET and VT all the convergence speed values are inside the allowable range, which mean stabilized
sections.
Numerical and graphical results are included in Chapter 9.
For the MT and due to the great value of 96 mm for MT in Clay segment (maximum convergence Scenario
“ B “ is 100 mm according to the Convergence Protocol Document vs 96 mm) a new reinforced measures
have been applied and, according to the variation of their speed, before starting the benching stage,
between Ch 250 to 310
Survey Reports :
The IE Surveys specialist have followed the next irregularities in undercutting sections , included also in
Chapter 10 :
Safety :
Main Safety issues outstanding are :
1. Excedeeing exceeding the permissible limits of CO (Carbon Monoxide) in Escape Tunnel, Face 1,
96 ppm vs 50 ppm allowed , and a higher value of 170 ppm in VT . It is necessary to highlight that
an exhausted ventilation system is needed in the Ventilation Cavern because this is a location where
all pollution air coming from 4 different faces is concentrated.
2. Allowing workers for entering into the tunnel before the exhausted air has been removed after the
blasting process.
3. The loading of explosives is being carried out while the blasting is being drilled, at the same time.
This beside being extremely dangerous, is expressly prohibited for the Indian Standard IS 4081 (
1986 ) SAFETY CODE FOR BLASTING AND RELATED DRILLING OPERATIONS, point 6.10 “
Loading and drilling shall not be carried out at the same time in the same area.”
4. Many workers are not using masks during shotcrete or scaling operations inside of the tunnel.
5. An explosive storage of 500 kg has been implemented in the Ventilation Cavern , near the corner
between VT and MT Face 2. However , no standard supports such a temporary facility. Because of
this IE raised this issue in the last weekly meeting in fron t of the SSTL-ITNL responsibles who are
committed to give an answer regarding which standard allos this temporary facility.

3.2-Mobilization
Mobilization of Quantity surveyor Mr. Manoj Kumawat
3.3.-Follow-up tasks
Several letters addressed to SSTL for different NCRs (Non conformity Reports) were submitted to SSTL,
See Annex 12.
Main WP Approach Road-Embankment work and Reinforced Earth Walls Ch. 0 + 120 to Ch. 4+550
Periodic inclinometer measurements for BH1 and BH2 in WP will be monitored weekly through IE Survey
team.
5.-Project review
The value of the bearing capacity is not consistent with the values included in the Chapter 6.3 “
Open Foundation Recommendations “ of the Report “ IGS/GIL/Z-MORH TUNNEL/BRIDGES “, “
Geotechnical Investigation for bridges on Approaches of Z-Morh Tunnel on NH1D (Srinagar
Sonmarg Gumri Road) in State of J&K, In this report, Sheet 30 of 31, the Net Allowable Bearing
Capacity recommended is 35 t/m2
The working stresses over the foundations according to the Table “ Stress Check “ for ULS
Pressure, Sheets 50 , 53 and 57 reach values between 35.93 t/m2 and 44.64 t/m2 all of them over
the allowable bearing capacity recommended.
For the modular deck option finally chosen. the resultant self-weight load transmitted to the
foundations is greater than the alternative used in the Annex which was based in steel girders and
reinforced concrete slab of 22 cm. Modular structure of composite bridge is composed by box
girders spaced 4.05 meters and reinforced concrete slab 30 cm instead of 22 cm.
Also the launch system for the modular deck will introduce new horizontal loads which were not
considered in the foundations design .

Like in the previous months, continue without completing the work cycles. It is made only the first
layer of shotcrete. This has been commented on several occasions and continue repeating it
Like in the previous months, the ongoing works are still without the construction of the desiltation
tank and the water coming from the excavation faces falls directly to the Sind River
In the Ventilation cavern of the V P it still happens the lost work cycles by the lack of machinery
and by the accumulation of water in the fronts toward the W P
Also lost too much time on the Main F2 toward the Western and the Escape F2 toward the Western,
by the accumulation of water in the fronts.
In the V P, between the four fronts have been lost 6 days between failures, lack of machinery and
accumulation of water in the fronts of F2 in the Main, and Escape, this means that an advance of 3
m/day/front, would be 72 m forward has not been carried out.
On April 24th the ground break in MT from WP at Ch 560 communicated the Face 1 with the Face 5
opened through the motorable cross passage.
On April -2018
1. NCR for lack of resources especially trucks in MT and ET Faces 2&3 only 1 cycle completed per day
2. NCR for starting benching stage in MT Excavation from Ch. 250-WP without movements stabilized in top
heading
3. NCR for no resuming and finishing the work units reinforced anchors D32 mm in frontal slope EP
4. NCR for no extended pipe collecting large water flow ET beside view face of right side micro piles
5. NCR for no compliance related to the exposed steel of the interior body inside explosives transportation vehicles.

2.Work for Geotrel wall not being commenced for Dumping yard A3 and A6
Dumping of Much in dumping yard A3 and A6 is going on continual; however, Geotrel wall for the same
has neither been initiated nor planned yet. The said wall is very important; from environment point of
view; will prevent runoff of dumped muck into adjacent River Sindh. The said wall is obligatory for
dumping yards as recommended by Environment Management Plan (EMP) of the project: PP: 103;
Chapter: 1; section 1.1; line: 6&7 and Work Method Statement of Muck Disposal: PP: 9&10; Ref. No.

Ganderbal (Government of Jammu and Kashmir); PP: 2; section: 5; line: 11-18.
Plate:3. Water being Released into River Sindh- Eastern, Western and Ventilation Portal
Waste is not being managed & handled properly at Ventilation Portal; hence is breach of solid waste
management plan of Z-Morh project; which clearly states at Chapter-3line -5 and chapter-4: the waste
(garbage, refuse, sludge or any other waste) generated from the project area has to be segregated,
collected in different color-coded dust-bins at source and disposed-off through approved waste hauler.
The said act is also breach of Solid Waste Management Rules, 2016- section-4; subsection (a). It is
also breach of Indian Municipal Waste (Management & Handling) Rules, 27th September 1999 later
revised on 5th April; 2016.
