STANDARD OPERATIONG PROCEDURE FOR RCC/PCC POURING

1. PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORKS COVERED UNDER THIS METHOD STATEMENT

Casting of Foundation of Pumps, Tie beam, Grade Slab, Columns, Core & shear walls, Beams
& Suspended Slab according to specified drawings and quality standards.

2. RESPONSIBILITIES

The contractor’s approved shop drawing for RCC structural elements shall be available for
inspection by the Engineer.
 All shuttering and reinforcement is to be checked and approved by the Engineer.
 The site engineer shall check that levels are as indicated on the drawings and are correct. Should
there appear to be any discrepancies, the contractor shall correct levels in consultation with the
Engineer.
 The site engineer shall be deemed to have satisfied himself as to the shuttering and
reinforcement works.
 The Project Manager shall be responsible for ensuring that all works are carried out strictly in
accordance with this Method Statement, the requirements of the client and the overall
contract documents.
 The site safety in-charge to ensure that all the works are carried out strictly in accordance
with safety norms.
 The Project Manager shall ensure the preparation and testing of concrete cubes for compressive
strength as specified.
 The Project Manager shall ensure curing as specified and utmost quality shall be maintained
through the works.

3. EQUIPMENT TO BE USED ON SITE

The equipment to be used on site will include the following:
 Concrete Pump
 Vibrators
 Masonry Tools
 Cube Moulds
 Slump Cone

STANDARD OPERATIONG PROCEDURE FOR RCC/PCC POURING

4. PROCEDURE
 Well before proposed start date for RCC works, Mix Design for all grades of
concrete to be used in works shall be conducted in Field Laboratory as per
approved Technical Specifications. The Mix Design shall be conducted in the
presence of Engineer.
 The RCC footing shall be done throughout the length and width of structure to be
constructed and shall conform to specified shape, levels and grade providing firm
foundation, level bed and strong structure. Concrete shall not be freely dropped
into place from a height exceeding 1.5m to avoid segregation of material.
 Casting of structures shall be done by placement of shuttering in line and level
followed by placing of reinforcement and subsequent concreting. All these works
shall be executed as per the procedures and norms already laid down herein
above.
 After completion of excavation & surface preparation, 10cm thick PCC shall be
laid as per the approved drawings.
 Location of Footing and column shall be marked according to the approved
coordination drawings.
 Vertical and horizontal steel reinforcement shall be cut and bent according to the
drawings and tied by strips in steel yard and shall be fixed in position.
 Corner bars in column and Tie beams shall be cranked for the entire length of the
lap. The concrete cover to reinforcements shall be as specified in the drawings.
 Cover block for steel reinforcement will be provided according to specifications.
 Shuttering sides shall be checked for vertical position and right angles with the
help of plumb bob.
 Inspection of Civil Engineers will be requested 24 Hrs before the time of casting.
 Concrete as per the approved mix design shall be pumped carefully, vibrated and
finished. After setting, the concrete shall be covered with polythene sheet and wet
Hessian clothes as per specifications.
 Curing of Concrete - The exposed surface of fresh concrete will be covered with
polythene sheets after finishing work are completed. After final setting of concrete
(8 to 12 hours after casting) the polythene will be removed and the concrete
surfaces will be covered with wet hessian cloth and cover by polythene sheet.
Wetting of Hessian cloth will be continued for a period of seven days. Once the
side shutters are removed, the sides of concrete structure will also be cured in a
similar manner
 Shutter form work will be removed according to specified time.
 Tests required will be conducted
a) Cube compressive strength of
concrete b) Slump test for
workability of concrete
c) Temperature control test.

STANDARD OPERATIONG PROCEDURE FOR RCC/PCC POURING

 Form work Shall be of such quality and strength that shall ensure rigidity
throughout placing, ramming, vibration and setting of concrete without visible
deflection.
 Joints in form work shall be closed properly and tightly secured against previously
cast concrete to prevent bleeding of concrete paste.

5. SAFETY MEASURES
1. Prior to concrete pouring request will be raised for Engineer’s approval.
2. Safety Officer, Site Engineer & Foreman will observe the works.
3. Safety measures will be as per safety manual.
