Erection
Methodology

• Lean Concrete
After the ground have been leveled by a grader and compacted
with a roller, the lean concrete can be pour.
After lean concrete is poured, it should be cured by water for a
minimum of one week.

• Reinforced concrete for the foundation


The day after lean concrete is poured, formworks fabrication
along with rebar cutting and bending will commence as per
approved drawings.
Mine Admin. Offices & Workshop

Method Statement

Page 12 of 26
After all rebar are set in place, anchor bolts should be put in
accurate place with the help of steel plate to keep anchor bolts in
position during the pouring of the foundation.
After the anchor bolts and rebar are in their final position, the
foundation will be ready for pouring.

Curing for the foundation will be for not less than a week for the
concrete to gain the required strength of 30 Mpa.

• Erection of steel structure

General

Although several methods are used to erect general steel rigid


frames, it has been found most satisfactory to erect the columns
first, tie them together with the girts and tighten the anchor bolts.
After the columns have been erected, the ground assembled rafter
is hoisted into place and connected to the columns. Generally, the
rafter will be connected on ground and then lifted to its final
position.

The intermediate or interior frames nearest the end wall are


usually erected first. This bay usually contains the optional
diagonal bracing.

Erection Procedure

Step 1 : Stand main frame Columns and turn nuts on anchor bolts.

Step 2 : Add wall girts

Step 3 : Add main frame rafter and secure with rope, tighten connection
bolts snug, using crane.

Step 4 : Add another main Frame rafter and several roof purlins to
stabilize frame

Step 5 : Add cable bracing. Snug tighten only. Remove rope ties and
repeat the previous steps with other main frames.

Step 6 : Add corner columns, sidewall girts and eave struts. Then proceed
with endwall columns, rafters, remaining roof purlins and flange braces.

When the frame work is standing, the structure should be plumbed and
squared. Use a level as shown for wall columns. Square the roof with the
use of the cable braces as shown. Taking diagonal measurements and

• Block Works
After columns are set and their alignment is checked, block work
will commence with the use of simple equipment and scaffolding
when needed

• The mezzanine floor will be erected with main frames generally


prior to sheeting and then casting the mezzanine floor.

• The sheeting for the workshop will be installed using scaffolding.
