SCOPE : THIS METHOD STATEMENT WILL COVER SUPERSTRUCTURAL CONCRETE ACTIVITIES STARTING FROM BASEMENT FLOOR AND ABOVE AS FORMWORK STEEL REINFORCING AND CONCRETE PLACEMENT . BASED ON CONTRACT SPECIFICATIONS, CONTRACT DRAWINGS, AND APPROVED SHOP DRAWINGS.

CIVILCO WILL PROVIDE ALL REQUIRED MATERIALS AND CERTIFIED EQUIPMENT FOR CONSULTANT APPROVAL TO CONDUCT THESE ACTIVITIES .

PROCEDURE :

1) CIVILCO SHALL SUBMIT SHOP DRAWINGS FOR; FORMWORK, STEEL REINFORCEMENT AND BARPENDING SCHEDULE SHOWING THE SIZE, SPACING, LOCATION, QUANTITIES AND DETAILS FOR IT AND ALL REQUIRED SHUTTERING FOR CONSULTANT APPROVAL.

2) CIVILCO SHALL SUBMIT SAMPLES OF THE ACCESSORIES TO BE EMBEDED IN THE CONCRETE SUCH AS; SHEAR DOWELS, WATER STOPS, WATER BARS, AND / OR INSERT PLATES FOR CONSULTANT APPROVAL.

3) THE SURFACE BASE OF COLUMNS AND / OR WALLS SHALL BE CLEANED AND MADE ROUGH TO MAINTAIN A BOND THE NEW AND OLD CONCRETE.

4) THE STEEL REINFORCEMENT FOR THE VERTICAL ELEMENTS SHALL BE INSTALLED AS PER APPROVED SHOP DRAWINGS AND IT

5) SHOULD BE SUPPORTED IN SUCH A WAY TO ENSURE THE SPACING AND COVER IS ACCURATELY MAINTAINED AND IT WILL NOT BE DISPLACED DURING CONCRETE PLACING.

6) ALL STEEL BARS WILL BE CLEANED FROM OIL, DUST, AND DIRT.

7) LAND SURVEYOR SHALL MARK THE EXCAT LOCATION OF ALL ELEMENTS OF FORMWORK AS PER APPROVED SHOP DRAWINGS.

8) ONE SIDE OF THE FORMWORK FOR THE VERTICAL ELEMENTS SHALL BE KEPT OPENED FOR INSPECTION PURPOSE.

9) MEP SHOULD INSTALL ALL THEIR ITEMS AND / OR LEAVE THE REQUIRED OPENING AS PER APPROVED SHOP DRAWINGS AND ITS TYPICAL DETAILS.

10) ALL INSERTS SUCH AS; BOLTS, WALL PLATES, ANCHORS, AND HANGERS AND / OR ANY OTHER KINDS OF FASTNERS REQUIRED TO BE INSTALLED AT EXACT LEVEL AND LOCATION.

11) ALL FORMWORK TO BE IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH CONCRETE SHALL BE TREATED WITH A SUITABLE RELEASE AGENT , ALL RUBBISH SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM INTERIOR OF THE FORMS .

12) JOINT INSPECTION BETWEEN CIVILCO & CONSULTANT SHALL BE CONDUCTED TO APPROVE CLOSING THE SHUTTERING .

13) FORMWORK SHALL BE CLOSED AND COMPLETED , IT SHOULD BE RIGID AND STRUCTURALY SAFE , JOINTS SHALL BE CLOSED AND SECURED TO AVOID ANY BLEEDING OF CONCRETE DURING CONCRETE PLACEMENT .

14) JOINT INSPECTION BETWEEN CIVILCO & CONSULTANT SHALL BE CONDUCTED TO APPROVE PLACING CONCRETE FOR THE VERTICAL ELEMENTS .

15) CONCRETE SHALL BE PLACED UP TO THE REQUIRED LEVELS AS PER APPROVED SHOP DRAWINGS .

16) CIVILCO WIIL PROVIDE ALLTHE NECESSARY EQUIPMENTS TO AVOID ANY LOSS OF INGREDIENTS , OR DISPLACEMENT OF STEEL BARS. .

17) CIVILCO INSPECTOR AND LABORATORY TECHNICIAN SHALL CONTROL THE CONCRETE PLACING AND PERFORM ALL TESTS REQUIRED FOR EACH CONCRETE TRUCK ( AMBIENT TEMP , CONC

TEMP , CONCRETE SLUMP , AND SAMPLES OF CONCRETE AS REQUIRED IN THE PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS .

18) AFTER 24 HRS FROM PLACING THE CONCRETE , FORMWORK SHALL BE STRIKED AND CURING WILL CONTINUE FOR 7 DAYS AS PER SPECIFICATION.CURING COMPUND MAY PROPOSED AS AN ALTERNATIVE19) CIVILCO INSPECTOR SHALL FOLLOW THE CURING PROCEDURE.

20) TOP OF COLUMNS AND / OR WALLS SHALL BE CLEANED AND MADE ROUGH TO MAINTAIN A GOOD BONDING SURFACE TO CONCRETE .

21) THE SCAFFOLDING SYSTEM WILL BE DONE IN SAFE WAY FOR BEAMS AND FLOOR SLABS.

22) LAND SURVEYOR SHALL MARK THE EXACT LEVEL OF THE FORMWORK OF THE BEAMS AND FLOOR SLABS .

23) THE FORMWORK SHALL BE INSTALLED AS PER APPROVED SHOP DRAWINGS .

24) LAND SURVEYOR SHALL CONDUCT A COMPLETE SURVEYING CHECK TO ENSURE THE DIMENTION FOR THE STRUCTURE BEFORE INSTALLING THE STEEL REINFORCEMENT AND ANY OTHER ITEMS .

25) CIVILCO WIIL PROVIDE ALLTHE NECESSARY EQUIPMENTS TO AVOID ANY LOSS OF INGREDIENTS , OR DISPLACEMENT OF STEEL BARS.

26) CIVILCO INSPECTOR AND LABORATORY TECHNICIAN SHALL CONTROL THE CONCRETE PLACING AND PERFORM ALL TESTS REQUIRED FOR EACH CONCRETE TRUCK ( AMBIENT TEMP , CONC TEMP , CONCRETE SLUMP , AND SAMPLES OF CONCRETE AS REQUIRED BY SPECIFICATIONS .

27) IMMEDIATELY AFTER COMPLETION OF CONCRETE PLACING AND FINISHING OF CONCRETE SURFACES , CURING SHALL COMMENCE BY COVERING CONCRETE SURFACES BY POLYTHYLENE SHEET .CURING COMPUND MAY PROPOSED AS AN ALTERNATIVEMETHOD STATEMENT FOR SUPERSTRUCTURAL CONCRETE ACTIVITIES
