For the fabrication works, Type 1 and Type 2 coupler of size 16mm, 20mm, 25mm, 32mm, 40mm & 50mm for steel reinforcing bars would be used, Bartec couplers are manufactured by Dextra Pacific Ltd. (‘Dextra"), which is also responsible for preparing the connecting ends af steal rintarcing hare. Far this Project, ra-bar threading type A (standard thread), type B (extended thread) and type C (extended thread to fit full Iength of a coupler and a lock nut) would be used ‘The quality supervision is in additional to: 8) Ihe qualited ste supervision shell be carried out by TOP from RGBC and TCP3 from RSE; and ) The Quality Assurance Scheme prescribed in the technical manual implemented by Dextra, accordance with the ‘The function of this plan is to ensure the mechanical coupler works are carried out i plans approved and that the required qualily standards are complied with including the quality assurance scheme of the manufacturer. This quailty supervision plan prescribes the essignment of a Qualily Control Coordinator from RGBC/ RSE to supervise the manufacturing process of the connecting ends of the steel reinforcing bar, and the installation of stee! reinforcing bars to the coupler. Personnel on Quality Control Supervision Quality Control Coordinator TCP-1 of RGBC stream is assigned to provide full time on site supervision Of the works at a frequency of not less than 10%. The name of proposed Quality Control Coordinator is ‘enclosed in Appendix D, ‘Quality Control Supervisor TCP-3 of RSE stream is assigned to provide on site supervision of the works ata frequency of net less than 10% of the works. The name of proposed Quality Control Supervisor is ‘enclosed in Appendix E, Work Flow of Thread Preparation, Assembly, Sampling, Testing and installation Please refer to Appendix A for a process flowchart from the delivery of re-bars to the installation of Coupler Assemblies. Details of each step are dascribed hereafter. ‘Qually Supervision Pan for Barec Type 1&2 Couper, Page 3 of 15Quality Supervision in Dextra Threading Factory ‘Threading works are carried out in Dextra’s threading factory in Yuen Long, Re-bars to be thresded are delivered tothe factory. Color coding system with labels shall be adopted by Dextra to identified re-bars {rom various sourcesictents, Al threading works ere carried out by Dextre qualified threading technicians who are direct employees to ensure threads are prepared in accordance with prescribed procedures and to meet the thread quality requirements, Dextra provide full supervision on their rabar cutting, cold forging and threading process, Dextra will provide all the necessary trainings (including on site demonstration) on their rebar cutting, cold forging and threading work, Dextre will also demonstrate to representatives of RGBC-TCP1 ain! RSE-TCP3 on how they can maintain consistency and speedy production of their threading process. Under the QA system of Dextra, rebar threading shall be checked by using Go-and-No-Go Gauges and Length Gauges to determine ifthe metiic thread pitch and thread length is within the acceptable tolerance range. An In Provess Qualily Contut Inspection Foun “(IPQC}" shall be provided with each balch of coupler assemblies delivered to site. Calbration records of the Go-and-No-Go Gauges and Length Gauges shall be checked and maintained, ‘Sampling and Testing on Site Quality Control Coordinator and Quality Control Supervisor shall be responsible for the receiving inspection of every batch of coupier assemblies delivered to site. Delivery notes, mil corficates for round ‘bar, and the IPQC shall be verified against the batch delivered. ‘Table 1.0: The rate of sampling shall follow the following table: ‘Minimum number of splicing assemblies Number of couplers to be used | “Tesis-as per clause 32.8.4 | Tests as per clause 3.2.6.4 Wes.)

Poge 4 of 15,6 a Where any test specimen failed to meet the specified criteria, RGBC-TCPI/RSE-TCP3 shall notily the Engineer's immediately, and carry cut investigation to find out the reason. RGBC-TCP1/RSE-TCP3 shail report the tinaings end propose turther action, such 2s rejection or retesting for the Engineer's ‘agreement prior to taking action. Quality Supervision of Coupler Assemblies Installation on si Quality Contivl Coordinator and Quality Control Supervisor shall be responsible for the quality supervision Of the i) manufacturing process of the connecting ends of the steel reinforcing bars; and i) installation of steel reinforcing bars to the couplers. A "Checklist of on-site assembly of Bartec Couplars directly in any location” has been detived for use. Frequency of quality supervision should be at least 20% of the coupler essemblies for the Quality Control Supervisor of the RSE and full time continuous supervisor by the Quality Control Coordinator of the RGBC of the splicing assembly works. For coupler to be used at the top of pile cap and transfer plate, the frequency of quality supervision should be at least 50% of the splicing assemblies by the quality control supervior of the RSE and ful ime continuous supervision by the quality control co-ordinator of the RGBCIRSC. Inspection Log Book ‘An Inspection Log Book shall be maintained in the site office and, when required, provided to staff of the ‘Authority for inspection The lag hook shall include the following: + Register of Quality Control Coordinator and Supervisor; ~ This Quality Supervision Plan; + Delivery notes: = Mill Certificates of the couplers; + In Process Quality Control Inspection Form ("IP QC"); + Test Reports to COP 2013; and + Calibration Records of Go-and-No-Go Gauges Statutory Submission ‘The following documents ate required to be submitted, which should include: @) A quality supervision report signed by the Competent Person, which should be submitted upon compotion of the coupler aeeembly works to confirm that the qualiy auporvision has beon adequately Provided with, the inspection log bock of the RGBC-TCP1/RSE-TCP3 for the coupler assembly works. b) A copy of mill certificates of the constituent materials used to produce the couplers, which should be submitted after of the delivery of the mechanical couplers to the site, ‘Quafty Supenison Pan for Barter Type + & 2 Couper, Page Sof 15APPENDIX A PROCESS FLOWCHARTS OF QUALITY SUPERVISION AND SAMPLING ARRANGEMENT OF COUPLER ‘Quely Supervision Pan for Sart Type 1 & 2 Couper Page 8 01151.
