 Soil was filled layer by layer and water was sprinkled to bring the moisture content of the soil to the optimum moisture content.  Soil was compacted using Vibratory Roller.  Sand Cone test was done to determine to dry unit weight of the soil Performed Sand cone Test

 This is done as a protection against termite attack.  Drill holes at 2 to 3 feet intervals along the perimeter of the building. Inject the termiticide.  Then termiticide spray directly to the soil. Inject termiticide Spraying termiticide

Water Supply Line  20mm, 25mm, 32mm, 40mm PVC pipes are used.  Pipe lines are checked by applying pressure of 8 bars. Sewer Line  Sewer lines are laid 1:80 slope.  All sewer lines are connected to manhole. Applying Pressure for Supply lines
