6. MATERIALS
LONG WEI CONSTRUCTIONS & ENGINEERING WORKS PTE LTD

The Quality of materials should be according to Customer


Specifications and Drawings. The Grade of Structural steel
shall
Conform to Standard as noted on the drawings.
The steel shall be free from loose mill scale, surface
defects, flaky rust, slag inclusions, laminations, pitting and
be of full weight or thickness within tolerances specified in
Standard. Approved Steel suppliers will be used.
All steel supplied shall be stored in a safe condition with
proper care taken during storage to ensure that no
damage occurs, which renders the materials
unserviceable. All steel material shall be stored at the
shop/yard above the ground on the platforms, skids or
concrete blocks.
After receipt of raw material warehouse responsible
shall verify the material inspection report to quality
acceptance. QA/QC Engineer will inspect the raw material
and verify the heat number correlation and material
specification.
7. METHOD & SEQUENCE OF THE WORK
7.1 FABRICATION
The fabrication of steel works shall be carried out as per
approved drawings and specification provided by Client.
The method and sequence of fabrication is given in the
following chapters.
7.2 FABRICATION PROCESS
7.2.1 Cutting Plans
The cutting plan shall be prepared for all material before
commencement of fabrication work. Material mark
number shall be provided for easy identification.

INSTALLATION WORK PROCEDURE

7.2.2 Marking
Marking shall be carried out as per approved cutting
plan under the guide lines of fabrication foremen, and
subsequently verified by the Fabrication engineer prior
to cutting. Prior to marking the material shall be checked
for its identification and the defects. Necessary items
shall be carefully and accurately marked in accordance
with approved shop drawings or templates.
7.2.3 Cutting
Material cutting shall be carried out either by shear,
plasma, CNC profile cutting and drilling machine, pug
cutting machine. The edges of all plates shall be
perfectly straight and uniform throughout. Cut edges
shall be visually examined for laminations and
inclusions. All corners shall be shaped so as to be notch
free, sheared or cropped edges shall be dressed so that
they are free from distortion and burrs. Edge
preparations for field welding shall be done in the shop.
7.2.4 Cutting of Heavy Section
The relevant standard rolled shapes or plates thickness
exceeding 50mm before cutting pre-heating (Min 66C)
shall be used. All cut edges shall be free of sharp
notches and gauges.
7.2.5 Straightening
All steel materials shall be straight and free from bends
or twists. If the sections are distorted or twisted during
transit, storage etc. they shall be straightening machine
at ambient temperature, though minor bends may be
corrected by limited heating under supervision.
7.2.6 Bending

LONG WEI CONSTRUCTIONS & ENGINEERING WORKS PTE LTD

The bending of plates and sections to specially required


shapes
shall be done on
appropriate machine.

INSTALLATION WORK PROCEDURE

7.2.7 Holes
Punching and or drilling shall be done accurately as per
the
drawings and burrs removed effectively. Where
several parts are to be connected to very close
tolerances, such parts shall be first assembled, tightly
clamped together and drilled through. All
