01. INTRODUCTION
 This document outlines general work methods. / Different stages involved in the construction of a timber roof.
02. SCOPE OF WORK
This method statement gives a step by step procedure for construction of a timber roof.


03. MATERIAL AND EQUIPMENT
      3.1 List of Materials
     Thulan –             1. Corbel plates
2. 50x50mm battens
3. Gonas rafters
4. Nails
5. Anchor bolts
6. Steel plates
7. Timber beams
8. Zn/Al capping
9. Bird wires
10. ZN/Al ceiling
11. 25X25mm L Angle
12. Chemical Anchors



3.2 Equipment and machinery
                                 1. Power saw
2. Electrical drilling machine
3. Jig saw
4. Bench saw
5. Measuring tape
6. Hand saw
7. Claw hammer
9. Theodolite with tripod
10. Level Machine with tripod
11. Crane (Mobile or Boom)
12. Spirit level
13. Centre plumb bob with string
14. Water level tube
15. Marking cord
16. Try square
17. Hammer



04. TIMBER SEASONING
4.1Chemical Seasoning
Borax & boron treatments in pressure impregnated plant

4.2 Kiln Seasoning
In this method, timber is subjected to hot air in the airtight chamber. The hot air circulates in between the timber logs and reduces the moisture content. The temperature inside the chamber is raised with the help of heating coils. When the required temperature is obtained moisture content and relative humidity gets reduced and timber gets seasoned. Even though it is a cost to process it will give good results strength-wise. 

05. FACTORY WORK

Industrial Manufacturing Process
5.1. S4S panning & sizing through 6 cutter machine.
5.2. Sanding and smoothness through the white belt sander.
5.3. Carvings/ moldings/ joints preparation at site engineer supervision at the “hi-Tec”           machine.



06. ERECTION - TIMBER ROOF CONSTRUCTION PROCESS

The construction process of a timber roof with a roof angle is 360

6.1 Shop drawings

Shop drawings will be used to identify the information required for the general arrangement for installation of all timber members and joints, nails and nuts & bolts.

6.2 Installation of rafters, Wallplate [timber beam] and corbel plate

For roof section with roof angle 360, , 75mm x200mm gonas rafters are fixing as per the shop drawing spacing Dimensions. Rafters will be connected the timber wall plate using thread rod with check nut.

150mm x 300mm corbel plate are installed by approved chemical with thread rod and nut.

 6.4 Installation of Zn/Al Ceiling

0.40 thick Zn/Al ceiling sheet will be installed on top of the gonas rafters. First, we fixing 25X25mm L angle to the top of the rafters. Secondary we are fixing Zn/Al Ceiling panel to L angle by the screw nails.


 6.6 Installation of battens

Installation of 50mmx50mm battens at 600 c/c is installed in the perpendicular direction to the rafters.



07. OTHER ITEMS OF ROOF

7.1 Edge capping

0.47 Thick Zinc Aluminum sheet will be installed the all gonas rafter edge.

7.2 Bird wire
Bird wire is a post and wire system that installed the roof. Birds try to move in the roof but bird wire barrier it


08.    QUALITY CONTROL PLAN / INSPECTION

For the purpose of quality control, the inspection and testing procedures will be used at the site to keep the records and to maintain the quality of the construction work at the site. In which all the criteria will be addressed and checked so that the construction work will have the same quality throughout the project. Contractors Engineer carried out the inspection and make the final approval to proceed with the work.


8.1 Testing the random samples for certification the requirement.

8.2 Random sample should be checked at a third party lab and confirm the request.

          8.3 Once cut any timber should be sealed for with proprietary pre-sealant    immediately after the drying process to the correct moisture content, and before factory breakout and machining.




09.            SAFETY AND RISK ASSESSMENT

9.1. Wear appropriate safety accessories (Helmets, Gloves, and Jackets)
9.2. Display safety signs around the worksite.
9.3. Safety/ risk assessment records shall be kept by the safety officer at the site.
