1. Title

Method Statement for Precast Boundary Wall Works

2. Purpose and scope

The aim of this method statement is to describe the process and sequence oferection of precast elements for the boundary wall in this project.

3. Work procedure

1.General

o Erection process shall conform to the requirements of project

specification and or relevant standard.

o Precast concrete element will be transported to site after the

approval by in-house QA/QC staff.

o On site survey shall be carried out for all site dimensions, axes

locations, and to meet project requirements.

2. Preparation of Civil Works

o Earthwork shall be carried out as per required level.

o Compaction, testing and blinding shall be done before starting

erection.

o Main grid line and benchmark will be marked by surveyor.

o Site access road for the movement and parking of mobile cranes and

trailers will be ensured at site before starting of erection.

o Backfilling after completion of erection of boundary wall shall be

made after installationof precast elements.

Stage 1 After erecting of footing and columns.

Stage 2 After erecting of first boundary wall panel.

o Erection of Footing

Footings for columns shall be transported on the bed trailers

where they are properly tied with chains and latches.

Lifting anchors and sleeves openings are provided in thefootings in proper locations as per design requirements for safe and

easy handling and erecting purposes.

Footing shall be received at site painted with one primer coat

of water proofing bitumen followed by two finishing coats of water

proofing bitumen.

Precast Footing

o

o Footing shall either be installed in its location at site using mobile

crane of adequate capacity.

o Individual markings for footings shall be made by the surveyor.

o Blinding shall be cleaned and the water proofing bitumen shall be

applied before erecting any precast footing.

o Footing shall be leveled prior to receive column and four line (axis of

column) to be marked on the foundation to specify the locations of thecolumn face.

o Backfilling around the footing shall be done as per

approved method statement of backfilling works.

o Erection of Precast Column

o Column shall be provided with 1 anchor on hole on top for handling

and for erection purposes.


3/5

Precast Column

o Column shall be transported on flat-bed trailers secured to the trailer

with the help of latching chains or belt.

o Precast column shall be unloaded by mobile crane of adequate

capacity.

o Then column shall be tilted with crane and lifted vertically in order to

bring it to its exact location onto the footing.

o Column shall be aligned at tail end to match the axis.

o Wooden wedges shall be fixed at the sides between the face of the

neck column and the inner face of the footing to keep the column in

place without tilting or displacing.


4/5

o Verticality of the column shall be checked with the help of line and

other instruments and any deviation shall be adjusted prior to grouting.

o The bottom of the column shall be grouted in the footing with

approved grouting material.

o Erection of Precast Wall

o Precast walls shall be transported on flat-bed trailers with double A

frame secured with bed of trailer by chain and latches. The precast

elements shall be secured with frame by the help of latching belts.

o Precast wall shall be provided with lifting anchor or hook as per

drawing for easy and safe handling and erecting purposes.

o Precast wall is unloaded from the trailer by mobile crane of adequate

capacity.

o Precast wall then shall be placed on proper storage racks or taken

directly for erection.

o Precast shall be installed in its exact location between two columns

and shall ensure the stability of the wall and prevent it from tilting or

displacing.

o Inspection Request would then be submitted for checking and

approval of the Engineer.

4. Safety

1.All works shall comply with safety procedure or instruction set out in project

safety plan and Municipality rules and regulations.

2. Know the safe working load of the hoisting equipment and hardware before

use. Never exceed the Safe Working Load (SWL).

3.Know the height and size of the precast element before rigging for lifting.

4.Always inspect the rigging element prior to every use.

5. Never wrap the hoist line around the load.

6.Always use taglines with the precast element while lifting to keep the load

steady.
