5.0. WORK PROCEDURE

5.2. Reinforcement
·         The rebar diameter, number, spacing is to be as per the approved drawing.  
·         Adequate concrete cover to be maintained on all rebars.
·         Rebar to be anchored to the floor slab by using chemical anchor as per the Annex A detail.
·         The line and level of rebar is to be checked prior to casting
·         Rebar and existing concrete floor will be presented for inspection
5.3. Formwork
·         The Formwork/Mould should be cleaned and clear from any deflection
·         Place Formwork/Mould and supports to its dimensions correctly and ensure that lines and levels are within the tolerances.
·         Gaps in the mould must be plugged out to minimize the possibility of grout loss during the operation.
5.4. Concrete placing, compaction and finishing
·         All surfaces shall be cleared thoroughly.
·         Appropriate arrangement and approval for pouring concrete shall be obtained from consultant.
·         Proper grade of concreting (Grade 25N/mm2) should be done by using machine mixing concrete as per the approved construction drawing and consultant requirement.
·         The compacting of concrete shall be done by mechanical vibrator.
·         Concrete cover to be maintained as per the drawing during casting operation.
·         Adequate illumination shall be provided during night concreting.
·         Great care shall be exercised during the removal of formwork/Mould.
·         Curing shall be continued for minimum of 7 days according to Project Specification.
·         Surface defects if any corrected as per the engineer instruction.
