CCCC should provide a detail of how the steel colomn is to be placed to achieve the above as
per approved submitted drawings

1. Installation preparation

Before the installation of the steel structure, check the entry components according to the
component list, check the quality certificate and design documents, check the deformation
caused by the acceptance components during the transportation process, and record in the
document, and adjust the problems in time to meet the requirements. For the foundation and
embedded parts, the position of the re-checking axis, the height deviation, the flatness, and the
elevation should be checked first, then the cross center line and the lead level are popped up.
Since the installation of steel structures involves the relationship between civil and steel
structures, the measurement tools between them must be uniform.
2. Lifting execution conditions

erection units, vs the crane capacity

5.Lifting of steel columns

1) Before lifting the steel column, completely remove the garbage and water from the
foundation of the steel column. Re-sharp and clean the Foundation surface, draw the vertical
and horizontal crosshairs of the steel column which will be installed on the foundation and
adjust the height of the nut and the block on the pre-embedded bolt to control the elevation
and adjust the verticality .Then, the steel column to be hoisted is placed next to the foundation,
and then the steel column is hoisted in order according to the line, the position, the tying, the
hoisting, the correction, and the fixing. The selected instruments are mainly the theodolite and
the level.
Please herein insert temporary support detail and layout
2) Use the extension to extend the screw hole position of the column bottom plate and drill it,
then use the extension plate to test the position of the pre-embedded bolt to determine
whether the screw hole of the column bottom plate needs to be reamed. Clean the protective
film of the anchor bolt thread and check the anchor thread, and prepare the temporary ladder
for lifting the steel column, the operating platform, etc.

3) The steel column is transported to the site, and the crane is lifted by the hook side to lift the
steel column. When lifting, the pile should be placed under the column foot to prevent friction
with the ground.

4) After the steel column is hoisted, first make a preliminary adjustment deviation, and then set
a temporary fixed steel cable on the three sides.

5) Calibration of the steel column:

(1) The plane position of the steel column, before the temporary fixing, use the jack and the
boring bar to the top of the steel column and the raft to make it accurately seated.

(2) The elevation of the steel column has been adjusted when adjusting the adjusting nut and
the spacer on the embedded bolt. The length of the steel column itself and the processing of
each part have been verified by the quality and meet the design requirements. The elevation of
the steel column after it is in place should also meet the design requirements. In addition, the
center line of the intermediate screw hole on the connecting plate of the column and the beam
can be unified by 7m to make a marking line, and the leveling level of the marking line is unified
by using the leveling device to ensure the same height of the screw hole of the connecting plate
of the column and the beam.
(3) Steel column verticality correction. During calibration, the verticality of the steel column is
observed on the transverse and longitudinal axes using two theodolites. When the center line of
the three sides of the column is a vertical line from the top to the bottom, the steel column is
vertical. At the same time, the position of the steel column is accurate when the center line on
both sides of the upper surface of the steel column is aligned with the cross center line drawn on
the foundation. If the steel column has vertical deviation on both the vertical and horizontal
sides, first correct the side with large deviation and then correct the side with small deviation; if
the deviation values are similar in the two directions, correct the small surface first and then
correct the large surface. The correction method can adjust the support nut under the column
floor or use the wedge-shaped horn method, the crowbar topping method, the jack plus ground
anchor and the square slanting top method, etc., according to the actual situation on site.

(4) The influence of temperature and wind should be considered when adjusting the steel
column.

(5) After the steel column is installed, the foundation can be poured twice with mass concrete.

6. Lifting of steel beams

1) The steel beam assembly should pre-check the model, length, bolt hole, friction surface and
winding of the steel beam.

2）After the steel beam is assembled, the lifting is carried out. The steel beam is assembled on
the simple assembly platform. The assembling platform should be flat and ensure the total
length of the steel beam. After the steel beam is assembled to meet the requirements, the high-
strength bolts are installed and connected, the bolts are screwed and the construction records
are completed, and all the acceptances are qualified and hoisted. However, temporary
reinforcement is required to ensure sufficient rigidity. Then, the hoisting steel beam section is
fixedly connected with the steel column, and a certain secondary component and the purlin are
installed as a temporary fixing to make it a stable unit.

3）After the steel beam is straightened, it is necessary to carry out several trial suspensions and
re-bundle the slings in time. The slings should be hoisted with a flat-hanging nylon sling, and the
hanging points should be no less than 8. When the steel beam is lifted 50 cm from the ground,
check it again and then continue lifting. When lifting the crane, the lifting of the crane should be
slowly increased, so that the position of each lifting point is evenly stressed and the steel beam
is not deformed as the best state. After the requirement is reached, the lifting is rotated to the
design position, and then manually pulled on the ground and tied in advance. After the control
rope on the steel beam is turned into position, the hole of the column beam can be fixed by the
nail, and the bolt is fixed by the mounting bolt, and then the high-strength bolt is put into
construction.

4）When installing the first steel beam, make a preliminary correction before releasing the
hook, align the center line of the base with the positioning axis, and observe the central axis of
the pre-elasticed steel beam with the theodolite to detect the steel. Beam verticality and lateral
bending. For each steel beam section of the first raft, 6-10 temporary fixed wind ropes shall be
added.

5）After the second steel beam is also hoisted in place, do not loosen the hook, fix it with the
first steel beam, follow the installation of the support system and some of the purlins, and finally
correct the fixed whole.

6）Starting from the third raft, the truss can be fixed at the steel beam ridge point and the
upper midpoint of the upper chord, and the truss is corrected.

7）The correction of the steel beam is generally corrected by the line hanging line inspection
and the hand-drawn hoist wire rope cable is used for correction. The beam is completely
corrected and all the secondary members and the rafters are installed to release the cable. The
steel beam roof line must also be controlled so that the truss and the centerline of the two ends
of the column are equally offset, so that the cross-span trusses are on the same center line.

1）High-strength bolts should be stored in special warehouses. All storage must be overhead to
prevent moisture and pollution. The high-strength bolts should not be stored on site for more
than 6 months.

2）Before assembling steel components, check for removing flash edges, burrs, welding
spatters, etc. The friction surfaces should be kept dry and tidy, and should not be used in the
rain.

3.）When the high-strength bolt is installed, its specifications and bolt number should be the
same as those on the design drawing. The bolt should be able to penetrate into the hole freely. It
must not be forcibly tapped, and the air-cutting and reaming should not be carried out. The
direction of insertion and discharge meets the requirements of the design drawings.

4） From assembly of components to bolt tightening, it usually takes a period of time to

prevent the high-strength bolt connection from changing. The high-strength bolts must not
double as mounting bolts.

5）In order to fit the connected plates tightly, all the joint bolts should be sequentially moved
from the center of the bolt group to the periphery. In order to prevent the surface treatment
coating of the high-strength bolting joint from changing, the screwing should be completed at
the end of the day. In order to reduce the difference between the pre-tensioning force of the
high-strength bolts of the first screwing and the rear screwing, the tightening must be divided
into two steps: initial screwing and final screwing. The initial torque value is 60% of the final
torque value. For large nodes, if there are a large number of bolts, a double twisting process is
required, and the re-twisting torque is still equal to the initial tightening torque to ensure that
the bolts reach the initial tightening torque value.

6）The torque wrench used for high-strength bolts and the torque wrench used for inspection
should be torque corrected before and after the shift. The torque error should be ±5% and ±
3% of the torque used, respectively. For the inspection after the final tightening of high-strength
bolts, the hammering method can be used to check one by one. In addition, the torque should
be checked. If the torque is insufficient or leaking, the torque should be tightened to the
specified torque. If the bolts are found to be over-tightened, they should be replaced. . For the
high-strength large hex bolt torque check, the "loose buckle and rebate method" is adopted. The
deviation between the torque and the inspection torque is within ±10% of the inspection
torque. The torque check should be performed after the final screwing for 1 hour. Complete
inspection within 24 hours after screwing.

8. Installation of purlins and support systems

1) The purlins and support system should be hoisted with steel structures for cross-operation
and flow construction.

2) The installation of the purlins can be carried out by the pulley borrowing method (shown in
the drawing). The installation requires the screw holes to be aligned and the tightening degree is
reasonable. According to the specification and the use position of the stringer, it is manually
suspended by the force to the corresponding position of the roof or wall façade.

3) The support should be installed in time according to the requirements, and the installation
position is required to be accurate to meet the design requirements to ensure the overall rigidity
and stability of the steel structure.

4) Immediately after lifting, the verticality and level of the components should be adjusted. To
ensure the correct alignment between the continuous components, it is necessary to install the
inter-column support and horizontal support and adjust these supports in time. Adjust the inter-
column support so that one side of the column stays locked and the other side relaxes. When
the column has reached the verticality, the pole stay should be finally locked to the "tensioned"
condition, but do not tighten the diagonal lock too much to damage the member. Adjust the
horizontal support from the eaves to the ridge with the ridge point as the center point and align
the roof beams to keep the roof vertical. In short, only the verticality of all the components to be
adjusted can be adjusted to lock the diagonal braces.

5) When installing roofing, wall tie bars and tie rods, adjust the level of the purlins in time and
correct the bending deformation caused by the transport or stacking.

9.Safety Precautions
 Full risk assesment report should be attached to the heath and safety compilation

1) The ground level of the aerial work should be marked with a restricted area, a fence should be
added, and a warning sign should be set to indicate the high-level operation and technical safety
measures. There must also be safe and reliable safety measures. Safety nets, baffles, guard bars,
and warning signs must be matched. Otherwise, construction must not be entered.

2) Those who suffer from kidney disease, mental illness, high blood pressure, anemia,
arteriosclerosis, organic heart disease and other unsuitable high-altitude operations are
prohibited from working.

3) The person in charge of the operation, the safety officer, and the safety of the personnel
entering the high-altitude operation area every day, and checking whether the various tools and
protective equipment are fully equipped and reliable. Also check the mental status of the
workers and the safety belts, caps, shoes, etc.

4) The latter and the sick are strictly prohibited from entering the aerial work.

When carrying out special high-altitude operations, it is necessary to have a specific

implementation plan to ensure safety, and to clarify the responsible person and full-time
guardian, and prohibit the special high-altitude operation of the strong wind platform in the
open air.

5) The various climbing and working platforms used must be in compliance with the standard
and have considerable risk reduction measures.

6) It is strictly forbidden to cross vertical and vertical work. If there are special requirements, the
relevant responsible person should review and make protective measures.

7) The power cord connector of the aerial work must be fastened, and the power cord must be
arranged to prevent the material from being broken and leaking. When cutting or soldering, it is
necessary to check whether there is a power cord and personnel and flammable materials
underneath. Use fireproof stars to burn people and power cords and ignite flammable and
explosive materials, and take protective measures.

8） It is forbidden to throw objects during normal work, especially in high places, must be
equipped with tool bags and must prevent items from falling.

9）When working at a height of 2m or more (including 2m), workers should wear a swing-type
seat belt and install a seat belt that can fix the seat belt.
