template. Adjust position of the template according to marking line on footing by plum
bob.
Step 6: Welding diagonal supporting bar to column rebar and anchor bolt.
Step 7: Check position of anchor bolt again.
Step 8: Protect bolts head by masking tape
Step 9: Cast concrete for starting column
Step10: After casting concrete, re-check anchor bolt position. Adjusting the template if
necessary.
Phase 2: STRUCTURE ERECTION
Step 1:
Tighten anchor bolts and nuts sufficiently to prevent columns from rocking.
Install all bolts in rafter splices to proper tension, using turn-off- nut method and
torque wrench.
Install bolts of rafter through column connection and tighten to snug position.
Secure all temporary, wire ropes bracings, plumb and align the column and rafter
before releasing the crane.
Step 2:
` 18
Step 3:
Assemble the rafter . Connect and bolted to column splices. The crane has to
keep holding the rafter in position until sufficient purlins ( 1/3 of total purlins at
that area ) have installed to provide rigid support for the bay. The crane can
release if having temporary bracing cables for both sides at interval of maximum
10 m.
While completing purlins, flange braces, roof bracings, portal bracings, & strut
beams.
After checking the alignment and square-ness, tighten again anchor bolts,
column connection, girts bolts, and eave strut bolts to required tension by torque
wrench.
Step 4:
Continue erecting columns rafters for the next bays, using same procedure
described in Step 1.

occurrence of possible damage and to require the maintenance of high standard
` 19
Using turn-off nut method: Tighten more120o+/-30o for bolt diameter >12mm,
tighten more 60o-0+30o for bolt diameter = 12mm.
Torque wrench: the actual value must be within the recommended value +/5_10%.
4.3. Alignment
` 20

shall be straight.
- After completing the erection of main frames the alignment check shall be done again,
before continuing the erection of the successive bays.
The tolerance of column plumb must be within the value of 1/500 of column height, but
can not be more than25mm.
The tolerance of Rafter alignment (from straight rafter - line) must be within the value of
1/300 of Span.
-After completing the erection of main frames, the final check of alignment (plumbing and
straightness) for the all columns and rafters of whole building shall be done.
4.4. Adjustment of bracing
- Adjustable diagonal bracing is fixed after all parts of the structure are in place.
- In bolted structures having diagonal bracing, wall bracings are adjusted after the columns are
plumbed, and roof bracing are adjusted when rafters are in straight line.
4.5. Final Inspection
After completing all trims and accessories, a final inspection of the building shall be done:
All bracings in position and tightened.
