PERIOD: 12 MONTHS

Scope of Work

Existing Tug-tie up jetty constructed for anchoring tugs/harbour crafts on

west of marine complex near inner harbour turning circle. As the cargo

handling increased copiously over the years, there is step up in no of

tugs/harbour crafts necessary to convey the cargo ships in to the harbour.

So, there is a necessity for extension of the existing EQ-1A berth. It is done

by constructing two rows of piles along the marine and land side of northern

arm of SL canal jetty. A new 7 meter wide road is proposed for traffic

management on southern side of SL canal and slope protection for the road

is done by constructing a retaining wall on the bank.

Capital dredging is done to -7.00 meters in the canal for hindered free

movement of tugs. A T-shaped diaphragm wall is constructed for protection

of foundation VIP launch as capital dredging may endanger its sub structure.

Dredging and construction of jetty are the immediate requirements and

should be completed on priority.

2.3Dredging Sub-division

Scope of work:- Deepening the inner harbour channel and inner harbor

turning circle up to (-) 16.10m capital dredging to accommodate 14m draft

vessels at Visakhapatnam port

Estimated contract value : Rs.217.27Cr.

Period of completion : 12 months

INTRODUCTION: The port of Visakhapatnam is located in

Latitude:17’41’N and Longitude:-83’18’E. The port is located almost

midway between Kolkata and Chennai on the east coast of India.

The port comprises of

- Inner harbor with 18 berths and

- Outer harbor with 7 berths and 1 mooring berth.

The project site is located in the inner harbor channel and inner harbor

turning circle of port of Visakhapatnam.

Dredging is an excavation activity or operation usually carried out at least

partly underwater, in shallow seas or fresh water areas with the purpose of

gathering up bottom sediments and disposing of them at a different location.

This technique is often used to keep waterways navigable.

It is also used as a way to replenish sand on some public beaches, where

sand has been lost because of coastal erosion. Dredging is also used as a

technique for fishing for certain species of edible clams and crabs,

see fishing dredge.

9

A dredger is any device, machine, or vessel that is used to excavate and

remove material from the bottom of a body of water. For example, a scoop

attached to the end of a rope or pole by which a man can draw sediments up

from the bottom of a pond is a dredger. Developing this idea further, a

motorized crane equipped with a drag bucket or clamshell (grabber) that is

used to scoop material from the bottom of a body of water is also a dredger.

The crane could be located on the bank, or perhaps mounted on a barge. If

the crane is mounted on a barge, the entire vessel is referred to as a dredger

The process of dredging creates spoils (excess material), which are carried

away from the dredged area. Dredging can produce materials for land

reclamation or other purposes (usually construction-related), and has also

historically played a significant role in gold mining. Dredging can create

disturbance in aquatic ecosystems, often with adverse impacts.

Dredging can be classified into two types. Capital dredging and maintenance

dredging

Capital: dredging carried out to create a new harbour, berth or waterway, or

to deepen existing facilities in order to allow larger ships access. Because

capital works usually involve hard material or high-volume works, the work

is usually done using a cutter suction dredge or large trailing suction hopper

dredge; but for rock works, drilling and blasting along with mechanical

excavation may be used.

Maintenance:

dredging to deepen or maintain navigable waterways or channels which are

threatened to become silted with the passage of time, due to sedimented sand

and mud, possibly making them too shallow for navigation. This is often

carried out with a trailing suction hopper dredger. Most dredging is for this

10

purpose, and it may also be done to maintain the holding capacity of

reservoirs or lakes.

A trailing suction hopper dredger (TSHD) trails its suction pipe when

working, and loads the dredge spoil into one or more hoppers in the vessel.

When the hoppers are full, the TSHD sails to a disposal area and either

dumps the material through doors in the hull or pumps the material out of

the hoppers. Some dredges also self-offload using drag buckets and

conveyors.

Blasting

Blasting is a relatively quick method for dealing with small amounts of very

hard rock formations like outcrops. Large quantities of hard rock are

nowadays excavated by rock-cutter suction dredgers or bucket dredgers.

The disadvantages are:

11

• The blasting must be accompanied by grabbing for the removal of the

spoil;

• Unless carried out from the sea bed, both drilling and grabbing cause an

obstruction to sea traffic;

• The indiscriminate loss of sea life during blasting;

• The percentage of fines generated by the fragmentation of coralline rock

are very hard to predict; and

• Mobilization costs can be considerable

12

13

Disposal of materials:-In a "hopper dredger", the dredged materials end up

in a large onboard hold called a "hopper." A suction hopper dredger is

usually used for maintenance dredging. A hopper dredger usually has doors

in its bottom to empty the dredged materials. As the vessel dredges, excess

water in the dredged materials is spilled off as the heavier solids settle to the

bottom of the hopper. This excess water is returned to the sea to reduce

weight and increase the amount of solid material (or slurry) that can be

carried in one load. When the hopper is filled with slurry, the dredger stops

dredging and goes to a dump site and empties its hopper.

Terms and definitions:-

Land reclamation: dredging to mine sand, clay or rock from the seabed and

using it to construct new land elsewhere. This is typically performed by a

cutter-suction dredge or trailing suction hopper dredge. The material may

also be used for flood or erosion control.

Beach nourishment: mining sand offshore and placing on a beach to

replace sand eroded by storms or wave action. This is done to enhance the

recreational and protective function of the beaches, which can be eroded by

human activity or by storms. This is typically performed by a cutter-suction

dredge or trailing suction hopper dredge.

In the present Ph-III dredging in Visakhapatnam Port, the dredging is to be

carried out both in soft/hard strata and disposed of at designated dumping

ground. Dredging is to be carried out in hard strata, comprising sheet rock of

predominantly Khondalite origin, sometimes weathered and fractured. The

rock is overlain by overburden materials like clay, silt, sand, and gravel.

CALCUALTIION OF QUANTITIES:

Accurate quantity estimates are important for the choice of dredging plant,

production estimates, time of execution and ultimately project costs.

Expressed in quantities, a dredging operation can extend from a few hundred

cubic metres to many millions of cubic metrics. In order to arrive at an

accurate dredging volume, the following is required:

1. A detailed design layout showing areas to be dredged and the design

depths required together with the relevant cross-sections;

2. A hydrographic survey of the area with bathymetric contours at 1 metre

intervals for extensive projects or hydrographic grid with bathymetric

contours at 0.25 metre interval for isolated structures

15

3. A geotechnical survey including borehole logs, in-situ and laboratory

test results and samples.

The factors to be taken before going into procedure of dredging:-

i) The depth of the sea bed

ii) Nature of soil present in the sea bed

i) DEPTH OF THE SEA BED:-Before the works of any part thereof

begun, the contractor’s agent ,the engineer’s representative shall

together survey and take levels of the site of the works both above and

below water level/chart datum level. Each hydrographic survey shall

be carried out using a high frequency .single beam echo sounder,

which shall be capable of sounding with accuracy to within one

percent(1%) of the depth in conjunction with position fixing using

Real Time Differential GPS. The interfacing of the GPS and Echo

sounder will be done by “HYPACK-MAX” or equivalent standard

software acceptable to engineer. The plan of survey area and the cross

sections to be surveyed shall be continuously displayed on the

computer monitor installed in the survey vessel.

ii) NATURE OF THE SEA BED: Visakhapatnam port trust has

proposed to widening and deepening of inner channel and IHTC to

bring bigger draft vessels at port. They entrusted the job of

geotechnical investigation to M/s.VPC Concrete & Geo technologies,

Visakhapatnam, to conduct the necessary field investigations

,laboratory tests through Andhra University on various soil samples

collected .

SCOPE: The scope of this work includes the establishment of profiles and

comparing all the geotechnical test results and analysis of results. These

16

results will be utilized for future widening and deepening of the channel.

Ninety boreholes were conducted in the proposed channel area.

The scope of soil investigation includes exploration of subsoil using 150mm

diameter boring and NX size coring in rock formation .It includes

conducting various field tests, collection of samples from the field and

conducting various laboratory tests, and analyzing the results. The field tests

conducted includes standard penetration tests at required depths. The field

work also includes collection of disturbed samples from all the boreholes at

suitable depths. The samples collected from the field are subjected to various

laboratory tests including atterberg limits, grain size analysis ,specific

gravity etc, in each bore. The

Results of laboratory and field investigations are used for proper

classification of soil and to determine the strength parameters of various

soils. Jet probing in IHC and IHTC at 20mts.Grid to identify the rock level.

FIELD INVESTIGATIONS:-

Actual field investigations were carried out by using power driven

mechanical auger and wash water with the help of hydraulically operated

Jack up platform. In this method ,water was forced under pressure through

an inner tube, which is retained inside a casing pipe. The slurry flowing out

gives an indication of the soil type. The entire boring operating operation

was conducted in accordance with provisions laid down in IS: 1892-1962.

The diameter of the borehole was 150mm and casing was to support the

walls of the borehole.

Standard penetration tests (SPT) were conducted at required depth intervals

in each borehole, throughout the depth of exploration. The SPT was

conducted by driving a split spoon sampler under the blows of 63.5 kg

17

weight with a 75cm free fall. The initial 15m penetration was taken as the

seating drive. The number of blows required to drive the sample 30cm

beyond the seating drive is taken as the SPT ‘N’ value. All standard

penetration tests are carried out as per provisions in IS: 2131-1963.

Disturbed soil samples were collected at various depths to access the nature

of soil and to evaluate geotechnical properties in the laboratory.

Type of dredger used:-Trailer Suction Hopper Dredger (TSHD)

Procedure:-

i) The dredgers intended for the subject work shall be installed with

position fixing system and dredge pack system so as to position the

vessel accurately in the required dredging area and monitor the depth

of dredging to the required line and level.

ii) Similarly the drilling rig, hopper barges& tugs etc,to be installed with

position fixing system and communication equipment such as walkie

talkies etc .

iii) The dredged material is to be removed from the site of dredging area

and transported and dumped at dumping ground marked as “spoil

grounds” on the navigation chart with Visakhapatnam harbor

published by the chief Hydrographer to Govt.of India.

The dredging is to be carried out to the required line and level as per the

drawings.

2.4.Environment monitoring sub-division

The port of Visakhapatnam is accredited with ISO Certification (ISO 14001)

by the Indian Register of Quality Systems for the Environmental

Management System standards in all its activities including related support

services.

An Environmental Monitoring Committee (EMC) headed by renowned

Environmentalist Prof. S. Rama Krishna Rao as Chairman of the

Committee is in place with members representing Citizen Welfare

Associations, NGOs, Academic Institutions, Industries/Defense, Trade, and

Observers from APPCB, Government organizations and Senior Officers of

the Port. The Committee reviews the implementation of long term and a

short term directive issued by APPCB and also reviews the environmental

activities to be implemented by the Port. The Committee also inspects

various operational areas of the Port and advises improvements on the

Environmental activities carried out and gives suggestions for additional

Environmental pollution mitigative measures as may be necessary based on

the requirements from time to time.

Three Sub-Committees are constituted to review and monitor AAQ

(Ambient Air Quality), Green Belt Development and Hazard Management.

The EMC reviews the findings of the Sub-Committees and advises suitably

on the environmental improvement measures.

Environmental cell has been established to monitor the environmental

activities of the Port, duly appointing persons qualified in the field of

Environment Management.

The Visakhapatnam port is presently handling coal at west quay of inner

labour. However due to depth constraints in the inner harbor the largest size

19

vessels of coal are lightened/handled at outer harbor due to availability at

deeper dredge depths in the outer harbor .The coal at GCB is unloaded from

the ships on the wharf using floating cranes and the unloaded cargo is loaded

into the tracks using loaders in the back up area of the berth an at east yard

until it is lifted to the concerned parties

The measures taken by the Port to mitigate Environmental Pollution

include:

• Monitoring of Ambient Air Quality at six locations in and around the Port

area by Port and third parties like Andhra University Development Center

and APPCB.

• Monitoring of harbor water quality at regular intervals through Andhra

University Development Center.

• Monitoring of STP waters before and after treatment at regular intervals.

• Regular monitoring of pollution control measures in and around Port area

and residential areas.

• Preparation of Environmental Management Action Plan and

Comprehensive Environmental zoning and land use plan for all occupied

and unoccupied areas for the next ten years through M/s. MECON, Ranchi.

• Distribution of pamphlets and display of message boards on Environment

Management.

• Development of Environmental Parks/ Nurseries and maintenance of

Islands in and around Port areas.

• Continuous development of Green Belt in and around Port area.

• Mechanization of Cargo Handling Operations in phases.

• Monitoring effluent of Port based industries before discharging into Port

Waters and ensuring that they possess consent of APPCB for their activities.

20

The Port is taking all possible measures to contain the pollution and to

maintain the ambient air quality within permissible limits. In addition to the

above measures, the Port is

(i)Modernizing the cargo handling facilities for coal, iron ore, fertilizers etc.,

(ii)Reorganizing stack yards

(iii)Insulating coal stack yards by providing high rise walls along with dust

suppression system as long term measure to avoid dust pollution.

Measures taken by Visakhapatnam Port Trust to control Dust

pollution:

• The coal stock yards at GCB, WOB, North and South of S4 Conveyor are

provided with Mechanical Dust Suppression system at a cost of Rs 8.00

Crores, covering an area of 4,75,000 m2 commissioned in the year 2002 and

the same is effective and water sprinkling is done continuously round the

clock.

• Covering of coal stocks by sprinkling of water and covering with

tarpaulins.

• Watering of roads continuously by water tankers daily.

• Sweeping of roads manually and with other mechanical process.

• The stack heights are limited to thirty meters only.

• Development of green belt around the stack yards and port area.

Beach Nourishment

Visakhapatnam Port Trust is discharging its responsibility as a corporate

citizen in keeping the city clean and green, healthy and aesthetic and

contributing significantly for better civic amenities for the people of

Visakhapatnam.

21

In consonance with the development of Visakhapatnam Outer Harbor in the

early 1970s the need for protection of the beach North of Visakhapatnam

Port from the adverse affect of erosion due to the natural phenomena on

account of sea wave/current action was realized.

A quantity of about 4 lakhs cu. mts. of sand is being pumped for the beach

nourishment every year by incurring an expenditure of about ` 6.00 crores’.

The beach nourishment being carried out for over the last 3 decades shows

the firm commitment of the Port towards the social obligation for the city

public, visitors and fishermen community.

Construction of multi-purpose berth 2 and channel berth.

Maintenance of fishing harbour, SWP way complex.

Marine fixtures

Various marine fixtures on berth are

Bollard

Fenders

Mooring Rings

Ladders

Bollards

Bollards originally referred to short vertical posts, typically found where

large ships dock for mooring. These are used to maintain the vessel to

maintain tranquility. These are used when the vessel arrive the berth for

unloading or loading purpose.

23

Fenders

In boating, a fender is a bumper used to absorb the kinetic energy of a

berthing boat or vessel against a jetty, quay wall or other vessel. Fenders are

used to prevent damage to boats, vessels and berthing structures. Fenders are

now a day constructed in several ways, typically of rubber, foam elastomer

or plastic. Rubber fenders are either extruded or made in a mould. The type

of fender that is most suitable for an application depends on many variables,

including dimensions and displacement of the vessel, maximum allowable

standoff, berthing structure, tidal variations and other berth-specific

conditions.

Types of fenders:

Super cell fenders

Arch fenders

Cylindrical fenders

M-type fenders

Mooring rings

Mooring rings are used for tying up ropes from berths to get position of ship

in stationary motion. These are available both in mild and steel in different

grades. These rings are used for maneuvering or fastening small boats.

Mooring rings are available from 12mm diameter to 100mm diameter as per

requirement.

Ladders:

Ladders are used for accessibility from the berths. Ladders are available both

in stainless steel/moulded rubber as per requirement. Unique dual

application ladders are also available, which can be used as fender for small

24

boats as well as ladders. Different types of ladders from 2m length to 12m

length are available as per requirement.

Break waters:

Break waters are structures constructed on coasts defense or to protect an

anchorage from the effects of weather and long shore drift.

Offshore breakwaters also called bulkheads, reduce the intensity of water

action inshore waters and thereby reduce coastal erosion. They are

constructed some distance away from the coast or built with one-end linked

to the coast. The breakwaters may be small structure place one to three

hundred feet offshore in relatively shallow water, designed to protect gently

sloping beach.

There are three breakwaters:

East breakwaters

Southern breakwaters

Northern breakwaters

The length of the east breakwater is 1050m

The length of the south breakwater is 1534m

The length of the north breakwaters is 412m

A minimum depth of 18.2 meters is to maintain in the outer harbor. The

turning radius of outer harbors is 610meters. A minimum depth of 10.7 m is

to maintain in the inner harbor. The turning radius of inner harbor is 440m.
