Why bills come back. And what Tatha Vastu does about each.

Returned forHow Tatha Vastu handles it

A layer billed before the layer below it is acceptedLayers are entered in order per chainage stretch, and a layer bills only over an accepted one.

Chainages that overlap the previous billChainage stretches already billed are blocked from a second entry.

Earthwork cross-sections without their initial levelsCross-section areas import with the survey levels they were worked from.

Thickness billed above the design with no approvalThickness is capped at the design value unless an approval reference is entered.

Checked line by line in the bill room

The Highways engineer opens any line, sees its measurement and photo, then certifies it, certifies part or holds it with a reason. Certification stays with them.
