Anti-termite Application
Application of anti-termite treatment solution under foundations. As per Project Specifications Section 3.7, all soil below foundations, grade beams, grade slabs and perimeter of walls and columns below grade shall be treated with anti-termite solution – Contra Insect 480 TC (chlorpyrifos) or Tergam 20% W/V (Linden). Application shall be done with the shortest possible interval between soil treatment and concrete pouring. If this condition could not be achieved, the treated areas shall be covered with polyethelene sheet immediately after treatment in order to preserve the quality of treatment against deterioration from ultraviolet rays, heat etc., all as per recommendation of manufacturer. In some cases, manufacturers specify a maximum of 24 hours interval from treatment time. If the treatment is exposed unprotected beyond 24 hours, the soil should be re-treated.
