‘There is nothing permanent in this world and change is
the only constant thing in life. These are some of the
famous axioms, well known to every one of us. We also
know that only change brings about progress. In tune
with these quotes, we have been witnessing rapid
changes and major transformations in the style, function
and operations of ECC. What was functioning as a
cohesive unitary Division, ECC was split into four
Operating Companies (OCs) due to the process of
verticalisation introduced a couple of years back.
Significant organizational changes have taken place
since then and each OC is now evolving itself as an
independent company with its own new strategies,
business segments, departments, people, leadership
and management.
Realizing the importance of all these changes and with a
view to keep track of the communication challenges in
each OC, ECC Concord is making a paradigm shift.
Shift from the conventional practice of covering one
particular theme or matters relating to one particular BU
or Segment to a combination of multi-OC project
information. We will henceforth bring out articles and
write-ups pertaining to four different OCs in order to
preserve the interest of every OC. From the table of
contents printed along side, you will find the
representation of projects from all four OCs.
We hope that this will stimulate and enthrall the young
minds about their own remarkable achievements amidst
several other organisational matters of day-to-day
importance.
We also hope that you will find this mix interesting and
useful. Wish you all happy reading.

Pipeline crossing
Rocky terrain
Challenges
created certain limitations to the team. Other
challenges included the laying of 2448 mm
diameter pipeline over the existing Ajmer
pipeline, apart from continuous traffic, narrow
road over a rocky hill on one side and a steep
valley on the other. The existing pipeline and
dam on the site restricted plans for blasting in
this stretch. The lithosphere of initial stretch of
1.2 km was rocky and was not suitable for
normal excavation. Construction of 200 portals
for supporting the pipe was carried out by rock
anchoring technique along the side of traffic
pathway and the existing line. The erection of
surge shaft of height 52m and its supporting
structure at chainage 86.0 m was a challenging
task because public traffic was routed through
the same path and there was the inherent risk of
placing the crane at a sloppy terrain.
The crossing of an existing IOCL pipeline made
the underground pipe-laying less feasible
economically and also from the convenience point
of view. The provision of above-the-ground
pipeline made this job easier. This called for huge
thrust block at both ends and intermediate RCC
portals that carry 25.4 m span MS structural
bridge to lay the pipeline.
The high temperature of about 45 degree
centigrade made operations a bit difficult.
Combined with this was the hilly and rocky terrain
of the initial 1.2 km out of 8.4 km through which
the 2448 mm diameter pipeline had to be laid.
This distance also consisted of varied contour
lines, limited space for operation and constant

Raw water feed takes place through perforated pipes at

to pulsate the water within the range of 0.6 m to 1 m
using sequential short flushes & prolonged periods of
rest (20 – 40 sec) alternately, hence ensuring sludge
blanket expansion. Automatic sludge draw-off takes

Pipeline crossing
Rocky terrain
Challenges
created certain limitations to the team. Other
challenges included the laying of 2448 mm
diameter pipeline over the existing Ajmer
pipeline, apart from continuous traffic, narrow
road over a rocky hill on one side and a steep
valley on the other. The existing pipeline and
dam on the site restricted plans for blasting in
this stretch. The lithosphere of initial stretch of
1.2 km was rocky and was not suitable for
normal excavation. Construction of 200 portals
for supporting the pipe was carried out by rock
anchoring technique along the side of traffic
pathway and the existing line. The erection of
surge shaft of height 52m and its supporting
structure at chainage 86.0 m was a challenging
task because public traffic was routed through
the same path and there was the inherent risk of
placing the crane at a sloppy terrain.
The crossing of an existing IOCL pipeline made
the underground pipe-laying less feasible
economically and also from the convenience point
of view. The provision of above-the-ground
pipeline made this job easier. This called for huge
thrust block at both ends and intermediate RCC
portals that carry 25.4 m span MS structural
bridge to lay the pipeline.
The high temperature of about 45 degree
centigrade made operations a bit difficult.
Combined with this was the hilly and rocky terrain
of the initial 1.2 km out of 8.4 km through which
the 2448 mm diameter pipeline had to be laid.
This distance also consisted of varied contour
lines, limited space for operation and constant

Raw water distribution & clarified water collection are
perpendicular with respect to the sludge blanket. This
clarifier is a flat bottom sludge blanket of pulsator type.
Raw water feed takes place through perforated pipes at
the bottom with PVC stilling plates. Air blowers are used
to pulsate the water within the range of 0.6 m to 1 m
using sequential short flushes & prolonged periods of
rest (20 – 40 sec) alternately, hence ensuring sludge
blanket expansion. Automatic sludge draw-off takes
place at the sludge Blanket level. Clear water collection
is through perforated V troughs at the top. Pulsators
have maximum flexibility in case of variable raw water
flow rate and quality of water. It has no submersible
moving mechanical equipment. There is substantial
saving of chemicals is achived due to strong
flocculation in the sludge blanket. Sludge blanket acts
as an absorbent filter which is highly efficient as far as
the removal of colloids and plankton / algae are
concerned .

lIn the crushed coal stockpile, coal will be

Stacker cum Reclaimer. In the reclaiming
mode, Stacker cum Reclaimer will reclaim coal
from stockpile and will discharge on to trunk
conveyor. Also in case of emergency when
Stacker cum Reclaimer is out of operation and
coal is needed in the bunker from stockpile,
dozers will be used to supplement coal to either
of the 2 Reclaim Hoppers, wherefrom coal can
be fed to the bunkers.
lBoth the direct path as well as two reclaim paths
will convey the coal to bunker conveyors. Each
of the bunker conveyor is provided with
Travelling Trippers through which the bunkers

The track hopper complex is 210m long with a
holding capacity of 4000 t with maintenance bays at
both ends along with erection hatch, staircase, etc.
The live railway lines on one side and ash-water pipe

twelve typical floors with more than 42,000 square
meter of built up area. The structure encompasses 9
shops, 132 leasable areas and service areas

external face of the structure comprises ACP
cladding and high quality glass curtain wall.
The structure is built on 194 concrete piles. The
entire pilling work was executed by L&T’s in-house
team to the exacting specifications.
The outcome of effective team work and adaptability
in operations have surpassed the conceived
productivity norms and increased the resource

The citations were given at a glitzy function titled “Towards Better Excellence” held at Rotana Hotel, Al Ain on 10th
November 2009, where all the contractors of AADC were invited. Mr. G Kesavan – Sector Project Manager, PT&D Sector-
UAE received the appreciation certificate from AADC on behalf of L&T.
L&T has been associated with AADC right from 1999 as an EPC contractor for the construction of Primary Substations &
Transmission Line projects in Al Ain. Presently the sector is executing 3 projects in Al Ain for the construction of eighteen 33
kV primary substations.
In addition to being one among the five such specially selected contractors, Mr. V Padmanbhan, Project Manager
