5.0 MATERIALS
5.1. Alidrain AD250 PVD
7.1. General
7.1.1. The PVD layout drawing comprising of numbered square grid box for the
PVD ground treatment shall be based on the construction layout drawing.
7.1.2. The limit of the location of the area to be treated and depth of the PVD to be
installing shall be as specification and engineer requirement.
7.1.3. Sample of PVD shall be taken at site and tested on the required properties
shall be witnessed by client and consultants representative.
7.5.2. The roll of PVD is fixed on the drain feed mechanism into the mandrel.
7.5.3. PVD roll will be hanged at the bar hanger on the rig to ensure smooth and
uninterrupted PVD deployment during the installation works.
7.5.4. The PVD installation machine will be driven to PVD marked point
7.5.5. Steel plate with fixture will be placed at the base of the mandrel. PVD shall
be wrapped around the fixture on the anchor and folded back. Mandrel will
be pulled back until the plate cap the mandrel base.
7.5.6. The mandrel is injected into the ground to the required depth and
subsequently retracted. The steel metal place which is held in place at the
toe of the mandrel will then anchor the PVD at the installed depth.
7.5.7. Upon full extraction of the mandrel, the PVD is cut off neatly at the
approximately 150mm above the platform level.
7.5.8. The PVD installation machine is the driven and repositioned over the next
point and the above cycle is repeated.
