5.0 Precast Parapet Work Procedure

5.1 Steel Parapet Mould (Formwork)

a) Fabrication of steel formwork will be to the dimensions, shapes and sizes required to obtain
the accurate alignment, location and plumb of the finished structure.
b) Mould shall be placed on flat ground and shall be properly secure to avoid movement
during concrete. Mould shall be levelled and tight properly. Spirit level/plumb shall be used
to check the verticality and straightness of the mould.
c) The steel formwork should able to support the concrete during pouring works.

**
 PRECAST PARAPET Revision: 00

d) The shop drawing for the details measurement or dimension of the steel formwork may
refer to the attachment in Appendix A
e) The inspection of steel formwork will be conducted during pre-concreting work to ensure
assemble of steel formwork is according to the submitted shop drawing.
f) The surface of the steel formwork should be clean from any debris or leftover concrete
before proceed with concreting work.

5.2 Reinforcement Work

a) Rebar cutting, bending and tying will be based on the contracts / shop drawings. Sketches
may be developed at site as identified by Site Engineer for better understanding of the rebar
installation sequence as per attached in the construction drawing at Appendix B.
b) Delivery notes, mill certificates, steel origin, supplier, manufacturer and other details of all
delivered steel consignments will be checked on site. The records will be available for
consultant reference or any future use.
c) Install rebar accurately in position and secure against displacement that might be caused
during concrete pouring.
d) Ensure all embedded items are fixed accurately at required locations and secure tightly
against any possible displacement. Any modification done during the installation and the
embedded items shall be indicated in the checklist as required.
e) Reinforcement sample test shall be carried out at the frequency as specified in the technical
specification.

5.3 Placing Concrete

a) Concrete placement can only commence upon approval of the Request for Inspection (RFI)
request by the Client / consultant. Request for inspection shall be submitted only upon
approval of QC Engineer and at least 24 hours before the casting schedule.
b) Ensure that all required inspections are performed.
c) Ensure that all embedded items required are installed and secured at their correct location
and levels.
d) Prior to placing of G40/20 concrete and concrete will be transported from the central
mixing plant and placed as rapidly as possible by using the concrete mixer truck.
e) Segregation and loss of ingredients shall be prevented.
f) The concrete vibrator will be use to ensure the concrete distribute evenly in the steel
formwork

 PRECAST PARAPET Revision: 00

g) Temperature of concrete mix at the time of placing shall be monitored randomly and shall
not exceed 36° C referring to specification clause 9.5.6 placement temperature clause (b).

5.4 Compacting Concrete

a) All reinforcement concrete, where possible, be fully compacted by means of power driven
immersion type vibrators (poker vibrator).
b) Vibrators shall be placed vertically in the concrete, held in position until air bubbles cease
to come to the surface, and then slowly withdrawn, so that concrete can flow into the space
previously occupied by poker.
c) All exposed surfaces of concrete in contact with fresh in-situ concrete shall be roughed to
the exposed aggregates before receiving new concrete

5.5 Precaution for concreting during heavy rain

a) Concreting shall not be started if there is heavy rain prior to arrivals of concrete. The
concreting operation only to start after rain subside.
b) However, if heavy rain falls during the concreting operation, the following additional steps
have to be implemented:
 The top surface of parapet shall be covered with proper canvas.
 A polythene cover shall be placed over the mixer truck top hopper to prevent any rain
water going into the mixer drum which may affect the mix consistency.
c) Make rough concrete surface using wire brush following setting to broom finish surface for
construction joints.

5.6 Erection / Dismantle of Steel Formworks

a) The periods of time for formwork should be remove is as per technical specification under
the section 9 for concreting with the sub-clause 9.8.4 which is removal of forms.
b) Formwork will be remove without such shock or vibration which might cause damaged to
the formwork or the precast parapet structure.
c) Upon the removing of formwork, no further loads should imposed to the precast parapet
until at least the curing periods complete or until such later time in as in the opinion of
consultant which the precast parapet attained sufficient strength to safety withstand loads.

 PRECAST PARAPET Revision: 00

5.7 Curing Work

a) For open surface, a curing compound (Refer to Appendix C) shall be applied equally by
hand pump or brush immediately upon removal of formwork to reduce incidence of plastic
cracking, shrinkage and dusting

b) Roughened surface shall be covered with damp absorbent material (gunny sack) or other
approved concrete retarder before proceeding the next level .

5.8 Lifting, Handling and Stacking of Precast Members

a) At all times, especially during transportation, members shall be secured in an upright
position.
b) To mention the minimum grade of concrete for lifting, minimum grade for stacking i.e
10kN for lifting, 40kN for stacking.
c) Members shall be handled, lifted and supported carefully at the positions and in the manner
intended to them. Always lift them vertically at the lifting hooks/points provided as
approved by SC.
d) Temporary supports for members shall be of timber. These bearers shall support the
members over their full width at the specified lifting points only. The ground or space
between the bearers supporting the members shall be carefully cleared and levelled so as to
prevent the member from being accidentally supported other than on the bearers. The
bearers themselves shall be supported on firm foundation, and every precaution shall be
made to prevent subsidence from occurring as per specification.
e) The members shall be transported on motorway by trailers, and are safeguarded against
tilting by means of suitable precaution.

5.9 Construction Sequences for Parapet Works

Please refer to the Appendix D for details of construction sequence on parapet works.
