  • OHE construction  agency is yet  to be placed, however,  it is expected that  construction of viaduct for the extended reaches shall start soon. Location of OHE Portals is a mandatory requirement for construction of viaduct to have appropriate loading pads for OHE on  the relevant segments of viaduct / box girders.
  • Exact locations / Segment Ids shall be advised to the Viaduct Contractor beforehand. Following activities are to be accomplished for the purpose –
    • Collection of data  pertaining to Viaduct alignment (Location,  chainages,  curvatures, gradient etc.), Track & Signalling (Location of Points, Crossings, turnouts, spare tracks and Signals) and Station Data (Location, length etc).
    • Preparation of a basic traction power supply scheme in sync with the existing system.
    • Sectioning drawing for the extended section as well modification in the existing system.

Scope of work shall include but not limited to the following:

  • Site survey and analysis of Viaduct and track alignment details (GAD) to finalize the locations for OHE mast complying with the Design Basis Report (DBR) and other  applicable standards for OHE system  design. The service provider shall collect  the  relevant data from other contractors of Maha Metro like.
    • Viaduct GAD from civil contractor. 
    • Track GAD from track contractor.

  • Interface with Civils, Track and signalling design teams to obtain correct position of cross overs, turn-outs and track alignment to finalize the OHE structure locations. 
  • Consultant shall provide the OHE structure locations to civil contractors for provision of OHE structure holding down bolts at viaduct segments. Provision for sufficient spare holding down bolts shall be kept for accommodating subsequent design changes during detail design. The details should get approved by Maha-Metro.  
  • Consultant shall provide  the OHE load calculation along with the design of holding  down bolts to the civil contractor. The details should get approved by Maha-Metro.
  • Development of Sectioning scheme to finalize locations of RSS, feeding posts, SPs SSPs and SSs as required. 
  • Development of Pegging plan for OHE layout design showing locations for overlaps, feeding posts, SPs, SSPs, booster transformers.  
  • The LOP Layout Plan & pegging plan shall be prepared using a proven software used for design of layout Plan for OHE. The viewer version of the software used for  design to be provided to Maha-Metro for review of the design and for printing in future as required. The location arrangement  of RC network & booster transformer to be distinctly developed in different layer in software so that it can easily be removed/re-imposed  as required.
  • List of deliverables: 
    • Traction Power Supply Scheme, Sectioning  diagram in CAD format and 3  sets of hard copies, soft copy in PDF format, CAD format & in Software  format in which  design  is done.
