5. METHODOLOGY
5.1 Delivery, storage, handling and protection of materials at site
All formwork and rebar should be transported to site by means of lorry and
unloaded appropriately using a mobile crane. They shall be stored in a
proper stockyard allocated at site. Similarly for aluminium formwork, care
should be taken to ensure that the formwork are properly stacked up as to
avoid damages or dented to the edges or surface of the formwork.
Methods of sampling and testing of materials for concrete shall be as laid
down in the latest edition of the relevant British Standards Frequency of
testing shall be as set out hereunder. All costs associated with testing of
materials shall be borne by the Contractor.

5.2 Pre-installation requirements:

5.2.1 Site clearance and setting out.

Get surveyor to set out the gridline for each R.C. frame to be constructed
before casting (ie from ground floor column right up to roof beam inclusive of
R.C. Staircase)

5.2.2 The coordination of works with other trades.

a) Roofing work
b) Window and steel door works
c) External and infrastructure work

5.3 Execution of work

5.3.1 Structure (RC Works)

a) Generally formwork shall be constructed and followed by the laying of

reinforcement bar according to the approved drawings and specifications as
request for inspection checklist for RC works to Engineer / Site Representative for
comment prior to casting of concrete. Concrete used shall be ready-mix concrete
from a respective supplier. Hoisting of concrete rebar formwork will be carried out
using a mobile crane.

b) Striking of formwork should not be by force or levering against concrete surface.

Prior to concreting, formwork must be thoroughly cleaned out and re-checked.
Provision should be made for cleaning out and draining.

c) Construction joint must be straight, truly vertical formed in the exact position
shown on drawings. For those not specified, construction joint should be well
planned against concrete delivery. Carpenters must be standby during concreting
in case temporary stop ends, correction of shuttering and any other contingencies.

d) Avoid having construction joints or temporary stops end at those area need absolute water
tightness for example bath area.
e) Check the verticality of every columns formwork. Be very sure that the formwork are
sufficiently and correctly framed, cramped, and braced so that the columns cast area as
vertical as the formwork before casting. Check the orientation of timber yokes to ensure
forms can be able to resist concrete pressure from both directions.
f) All beams / slabs formwork must be leveled properly with reference to the datum marked
at every column after columns formwork removed. Check every slabs and beams soffit
level before and after casting. Quick check can be done by marking on the casted
columns.

g) Opening for plumbing check to baseline must be provided at each floor. Baseline must be
transferred to upper floor columns etc. before upper floor works can be proceed.

3.0 Precaution In Reinforcement.

a) Upon receipt of steel (round steel bars, deformed bars and welded mesh fabric).
Make sure that it is of the specified type, quantity and grades shown. The bars
should have mill tags identifying in the batch number, mill test result should be
accompanying the D.Os.

b) Steel reinforcement should be stored in clean conditions. It shall be clean and free
from loose rust and loose scale at time of fixing in position and subsequently
concreting.

c) The steel must be installed in accordance to drawing and specifications:-

i) The bars are the required numbers, size and shape and have been placed
within the allowable tolerances.

ii) Spices should have the required lap and must not located at points of
maximum tensile stress.

iii) The reinforcement is being adequately tied and supported to remain in

position when concrete is placed.

iv) The specified cover of concrete for the steel bars is being obtained.

v) Tying wire is not allowed to protrude towards the face concrete.

4.0 Regular Checking of Reinforcement is Essential.

Wastage in construction materials particularly reinforcement should be kept at the

minimum, i.e. rebars should be cut according to the best combination of lengths.

5.0 Concrete.

In this project ready-mix concrete are being used

6.0 Mixing of Materials

a) All mixing of concrete materials shall be carried out in a mechanically operated mixer complying
with B.S. 1305 Batch Type Concrete Mixers except in an emergency when hand methods may
be employed as approved by the S.O. The mixer shall be of a type which will ensure an uniform
distribution of materials throughout the mass.
b) The mixer shall be of such capacity that one or more whole bags of cement may be used in the
batch. The volume of he mixed material shall not exceed the makers rated capacity for the
mixer.
c) The mixing time shall be measured from the time when all the materials are in the mixer drum.
The minimum time of mixing shall be one and one half minutes for mixers of one (1) cubic yard
or less capacity shall have mixing time increased by fifteen (15) seconds for each additional half
cubic yard capacity or part thereof.
d) The drum shall rotate at a peripheral speed of approximately two hundred (200) feet per minute
at a point on the widest section of the drum, or at a speed of twelve (12) c.p.m. whichever is the
slower.
e) The first batch shall contain an excess of cement, sand and water sufficient to coat the inside of
the mixer without reducing the mortar content of the mix below that required.
f) The remixing with or without further addition of water, cement or aggregates, of concrete which
has partially hardened shall not be permitted.

Nominal Mixes High Strength Concrete

The proportions of the mix as specified in the table above are expected to produce works cube
strengths in excess of the requirements of this specification and a workability sufficient to ensure the
concrete being workable and fully compacted

8.0 Placing, vibrating and finishing Concrete.

Certain precaution should be taken in placing & compaction of concrete to ensure

a satisfactory finish:-

a) Immediately before any concreting is commenced all formwork shall be carefully

examined to ensure that all dirt, shavings, sawdust, etc. has been removed. The
inside of all timber forms, barrows, chutes, etc. shall be wetted prior to the placing
of concrete.
b) All concrete shall be handled from the mixer as rapidly as practicable by methods
which shall prevent segregation. Unless otherwise approved, in no case shall the
time exceed thirty (30) minutes after discharge from the mixer or agitator truck
vehicle. Under no circumstances shall concrete that has partially hardened be
placed in the work.
c) Concrete shall be placed in one continuous operation between the ends of
members and/or construction joints irrespective of meal hours, tea breaks, etc.
The concrete shall be placed so that the coarse aggregate will not be separated
from the rest of the material.
d) The concrete shall be thoroughly worked and consolidated round the steel
reinforcement and into all parts of the formwork, to that the steel is thoroughly
coated and so that no voids or cavities are left.
e) The concrete shall be placed in layers of such thickness and from such heights as
will enable this to be done. The Contractor shall not be permitted to drop concrete
directly into forms where the distance between the end of the concrete exceeds
50.

f) All concrete shall be compacted by sufficient numbers of approved type of

mechanical vibrators suitable for the operation for which it is intended. Vibrators
proposed for use shall be approved by the S.O.
g) Sufficient vibrators shall be provided to suit the capacity of the concrete mixer.
h) For each group of four units (or part thereof) in operation, one additional vibrator
shall be provided and kept in readiness for immediate use should a breakdown
occur.
i) Location of all construction joints shall be submitted to the S.O. for approval prior
to commencement of any concreting operations. Before fresh concrete is
deposited upon or against any concrete at a construction joint the surface of the
hardened concrete shall be thoroughly roughened and cleaned of all laitance,
loose and foreign matter. Immediately prior to placing of concrete at any point the
hardened surface shall be dampened and coated with a layer of neat cement
slurry. The layer shall be brushed into the joint surfaces and shall not be allowed
to dry out before placing the fresh concrete.

7.0 Rectification Works - Honeycomb

a) Shall be inspected by COW and if the defect is not serious grouting cement shall
be use and the grouting material must be approved by Engineer.

b) If the defect is too serious the defect area shall be hack off which confirm by COW
and Engineer and reconstruct the above defect area.
