1. PURPOSE

This method of statement defines/describes the procedures for the fabrication and
installation of Pre-Cast walls and stairs to be conducted in the site are in acquiescence with
the Approved for Construction Drawings, Structural Works Technical Specification and
Materials approvals. Where the materials to be install are compliant with the approve
design and using recognized/standard installation practices that are safe and in accordance
with the Project Safety Plan and Associated Safety Procedures. Where the dimensions and
cross sectional properties are customized to the requirements of the project and to ensure
the work procedures are complied with the Project Quality Plan, its associated quality
procedures and an approved Inspection and Test Plan for the works.

2. SCOPE OF WORKS and APPLICATION

This method of statement restricts the structure which will be using in the
production/fabrication and installation of Pre-Cast walls and stairs and listed as follows:

A. PRODUCTION PROCESS

The production of pre-cast concrete panels and stairs is accomplished by the six
basic processes listed below:

1. Bed Preparation

Horizontal casting will be used with phenolic, steel or concrete bed used as
base; aluminum tubing or channel will be used as sidings. If possible two side
forms will be fixed to the bottom of the bed and other side forms will be
positioned by means of bolts, wedges, braces and magnet.

MGB-MS-015-ST-009 Page 2
 The forms shall be free from draft, rust and concrete waste from previous
concrete pouring. Grinding and brushing shall be completed as required.
Application of release agent shall be done after the cleaning of the bed.
Preparation shall be carried out prior to placement of the reinforcing bars.

2. Reinforcing Steel Fabrication

The approved shop drawings are thoroughly reviewed and the cutting and
bending schedules prepared. The rebar comprising the main bars of the
structural members are cut and bend at the fabrication area.

After completing the assembly of the reinforcing bar matting, care shall be
taken in lifting the reinforcing bar matting and placing it into the formworks.
Reinforcing bars are positioned by means of spacers.

3. SET-UP DETAILS

The position of the rebar is ensured that the proper cover requirements are
satisfied. Also care should be taken on the installation of the dowels and plates
since it would greatly affect the erection procedure during construction at site.

For all cases, bolts and braces are installed to prevent movement of the side
forms during concrete pouring. The perpendicularity of the forms should always
be checked to ensure the squareness of the members.

Once the end of the forms is fixed, the lifting inserts are placed and fixed into
position. Also, spacers are placed to support the reinforcing steel bars at the
bottom to provide a concrete cover.

Prior to concrete pouring, check and ensure that the miscellaneous materials
for MEPF (especially for ELECTRICAL embedments) are placed and installed
based on the approved For Construction Drawing and approved lay-out and
shop drawing and Material approvals issued by the Structural Works Design
Consultant.

4. CONCRETING

The concrete design mix is prepared beforehand conforming to the

specification of the structural designer with the help of ready mix concrete
suppliers for this project. Typical compressive strength is 3000 to 4000 PSI.

Prior to concrete pouring, the following materials must be prepared and listed
as follows:

 Shovels
 Vibrators
 Trowels
 Tarpaulin canvass or White Polyethylene Sheets
 Concrete cylinder molds for sampling

Conduct a final inspection/checking for the cleanliness of the forms as well on

the arrangement and positioning of all the reinforcing bars, lifting hooks or
inserts, dowels/plates and electrical embedments.

MGB-MS-015-ST-009 Page 3
 Upon arrival of the pre-ordered RMC, the delivered concrete is then poured
directly from the transit mixer into the forms. The concrete will be spread
manually using shovels and hand-held internal concrete vibrators. The use of
the vibrators will ensure that there is proper distribution as well as eradication of
air bubbles. The vibrator should be probed vertically into the concrete at an
interval of 0.5m along the length and width of the panel and no longer than 15
seconds shall the vibrator be continuously placed inside the concrete due to
possible segregation of the materials.

During concreting, test samples representative of the batched concrete for

several members are taken for use in determining the compressive strength at
different ages of the concrete. The concrete will be poured into the test cylinders
molds and will prepare according to the proper preparations of cylinders with tri
layering and rodding. These samples would be tested for lifting at 16 hours
compressive strengths. The concrete surface is then screeded and trowel-
finished. After the finishing, it is necessary to cover the product with TARPAULIN
canvass or Polyethylene Sheets to protect them from premature dehydration.

5. CURING

The concrete maybe cured by either normal or steam curing. Normal curing is
preferable while steam curing is adapted for cases wherein the project is
pressed for time only.

For normal curing (ASTM), the concrete is allowed to cure while being
covered with canvass until the concrete attains the required strength for lifting.

6. STRIPPING AND STOCKING

The stripping of the form and lifting of the product shall be done when
concrete strength is at least 60 % of the 28-day compressive strength. In some
cases, we use high early strength to maximize the cycle use of the molds. The
strength can be determined using the field-cured test cylinder. Stripping could be
done once the pre-cast concrete member is ready to be lifted.

Stocking area should be clean, plain surface, stable ground and no

obstruction above for free movement of lifting equipment. With big space enough
to store pre-cast horizontal or vertical also provided access to delivery truck, fork
lift, and mobile crane for loading process.

Stocking of pre-cast panels is mostly done horizontally. However, there are

few cases wherein panels will be stored vertically. Pre-cast can be store
horizontal or vertical, for pre-cast stack horizontally should be provided with
bolster place on top of lifting socket. Vertical piling of pre-cast should be
provided with rack to place pre-cast on standing position or a support to hold the
pre-cast perpendicular to the ground.

Dunnage or Bolster is important for stack and piling of pre-cast. You can use
any material like wood, concrete, steel, rubber or any related materials that can
be hold heavy load. Bolster is place religiously on top of the lifting socket or as
indicated on the plan.

MGB-MS-015-ST-009 Page 4
 B. MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS

1. Reinforcing Steel

All reinforcing bars shall comply with ASTM A615. Grade 60 bars shall be
used for bars greater than diameter of 12mm and smaller diameter bars shall be
done according to ASTM A370.
2. Cement

Cement shall be Portland cement type and shall comply with ASTM C150.
Chemical and physical analysis shall be performed to include compressive
strengths of the cement. The cement should have a compressive strength of at
least 12.4(optional). Testing shall be done in accordance with ASTM C109.

3. Aggregates

Fine aggregates or sand shall be composed of Porac sand. They should

conform to ASTM C33 with a maximum nominal size of 19.0mm. Sieve analysis
for both the fine and coarse aggregates shall also be performed in accordance
with ASTM C136. Important properties that need to be determined include unit
weights (ASTM C29) and specific gravity and absorption (ASTM C127 and 128).

4. Water

All water used for the mixing of concrete shall be clean and should not contain
dissolved or undissolved impurities likely to be harmful to the cement,
aggregates or the steel reinforcement. The water used for the concrete mix shall
conform to AASHTO T-26.

5. Admixtures

The concrete admixture is a high performance SUPERPLASTICING

admixture (TYPE F). The usual dosage dosage ranges from 7 ml/kg of
cementitious material. The concrete admixture shall conform to ASTM C494.
These materials are subject to the approved design mix trial mixes done prior to
actual batching.

C. CONCRETE TESTING

1. Slump Test

A sample fresh mixed concrete is placed and compacted by rodding in a mold

shaped as the frustum of a cone. The mould is raised and the concrete allowed
subsiding. The distance between the original and displaced position of the top of
the concrete is measured and reported as the slump of the concrete. Slump
readings between 150mm or 6 inches to 200mm or 8 inches are considered
acceptable.

SLUMP tests are carried out in accordance with ASTM C143

MGB-MS-015-ST-009 Page 5
 2. Compressive Strength Samples

Samples for compressive strength tests are mould in 150mm  X 300mm

cylinders. A sample consists of 12 cylinders taken from the bed. Three cylinders
are used to establish the rate or gain in strength of the concrete before lifting.

Three cylinders are used for the seven (7) days compressive strength and
three cylinders for the 28 days compressive strength. The remaining three
cylinders are extra.

All samples are taken, mould and cured in accordance with the procedures in
ASTM C172 and ASTM C31. All samples are marked with the sampling date and
an appropriate identification mark.

3. Compressive Strength Test

This method consists of applying a compressive axial load to molded

cylinders at the rate which is within a prescribed range until failure occurs. The
compressive strength of the specimen is calculated by dividing the maximum
load attained during the test by the cross sectional area of the specimen.

Testing of the compressive strength samples are carried out in accordance

with the procedures in ASTM 39.

4. Acceptance Criteria for Compressive Strength

A minimum of three (3) test cylinders shall be made to verify strength of

concrete during lifting and a minimum of three tests cylinders shall be made to
verify the 28-dayh strength. The strength of concrete at any given age shall be
determined as the average of three cylinders.

For the verification of the 28-day compressive strength requirement, the

concrete is considered acceptable if no value of the test strength is less than the
28-day compressive strength design.
