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.

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.

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
