METHOD STATEMENT SUPPLY AND LAY IN SITU CONCRETE ROAD KERB

* Upon approval of marked areas, the alignment and finished level of in situ concrete road kerb shall be
set accurately on site for approval by the S.O.

• The depression areas along alignment must be regulated by crusher run and compacted by main
contractor.

• Upon approval of the alignment and finished level, the process of the site mix concrete grade 20 @
20N/mm² for 28 days- 14mm aggregate will take place. The concrete will be poured into 1 st
kerbmaker concrete hopper. The concrete slump test 5-10mm (Stiff mix). The proposed composition of
the materials for the site mix base on 50kg cement (One bag OPC) as follows:

Sand or Remarks / Use


Mix Coarse Agg (m³) Water (Liters)
Quarry dust (m³) Recommended
Grade 20 0.08 0.08
25 Backhoe bucket
1:2.5:3.5 1 No 1 No
Earlier
proposal 0.08 0.13 22
Grade 20

• Due to site constrain, we use backhoe bucket instead of timber box which are common practice for
the site mix. The backhoe bucket dimensions as shown below. Volume per bucket V=0.08m³.

• To maintain homogenous, the aggregate and sand / quarry dust must be mixed accordingly first
before feeding the dry mix aggregate into the concrete mixer. For full capacity of con.mixer need 2
backhoe buckets of mix aggregate V=0.16cum and 1 bag (50kg) OPC. (Earlier proposal 2.5 backhoe
buckets of dry mix agg V=0.2cum and 1.5bags OPC).

• The W/C approximately 0.50. the aggregates exposed to atmosphere might need extra water to
maintain SSD of aggregate. Experience will enable Kerb maker operators to recognize a suitable mix
at sight. Always ensure that concrete has sufficient water. A too dry mix will produce neither good
strength nor good product.

• The surface of the mould must be clean from dirt, loose concrete, oil etc to ensure optimum output
products.

• The cement grout will be poured into 2 nd concrete hopper. The thin layer of cement grout will flow
at outer surface of roadkerb. The purposed of cement grout to ensure the end product look better

finishing and texture.

* The kerb maker will run at recommended speed along the approved set up alignment and finished
level.

• Due to weather, the road kerb will be exposed to contraction and expansion. The groove 10mm
square at 3m c/c will be provided along road kerb.

• The wet concrete kerb will not expose directly to the rain. The plastic sheet will be provided to cover
road kerb and to ensure the curing time will not disturb app 1 hour.

CONCRETE / DESIGN MIX

The Kerbmaker is designed to accept normal locally available materials in concrete mixes designed
for kerbing work. Whilst largest aggregate may be used with Kerbmaker a maximum aggregate size
of 13mm ( 1/2�) is preferred. If this is not available a mixture of 20mm - 10mm (3/4" - 3/8") is
acceptable.

An engineer should design the mix, but a general design found to work well in the many areas into
which Kerbmaker has been sold is as follows:

Section A:

In proportions

40% Sand of fineness modulus 2.00 768kg


10% 10mm (3/8�) aggregate 192kg
50%services
Our 13mm: (1/2") aggregate 960kg

100% = 1920kg

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Section B:

300kg Cement = 6 pack X 50 kg (15.625% of 1920 kg)

Cement is as required for strength but for 20 grade a Concrete approx 300kg/cu meter or 500 lbs/cu
yd.

Section C:

Water 130 liters/cu meter or 135 kg water / cu meter

Total Water (including moisture in aggregates and sand) 130 liters/cu meter (20-23 glas/cu yd)

Water : cement ratio approx 0.45

Summary:

Total aggregates : 1920kg /cu meter


Add Cement required : 300kg /cu meter
Add Water : 130 liters

Total aggregates : 320kg /cu meter (of 3/8� aggregate and 144 kg of sand) Add Cement required
: 50 kg/cu meter (One pack)
Add Water : 22.5 liters
