14 Methodology
This method of statement covers, in narrative and illustrative forms, the sequence of erection for
Structural Steel Bridge.
1. Transportation of Segment (Logistics).

2. Site Assembly
3. Lifting of Bridge Deck
4. Connections (Welds/Bolting)
5. Required Test
14.1 Connection Design, and generation of General Arrangement Drawings.

Early Evaluation and decision of the lengths, quantity, locations of the bridge segments are taken at this stage based on
the design philosophy of the bridge structure/s. Decisions are taken this stage highly impact the site works.
 Necessary Engineering Drawings co-ordination is done at this stage to finalize the bridge segment lengths.
 Locations of the Temporary towers as per the
advised locations from Engineering Teams are
finalized at this stage. It is preferable to Keep
the locations of temporary tower at Standard
distant from pier for uniformity.
 Information to the Civil team to prepare the

Base for the temporary support towers is
finalized and passed at this stage.
 Forces for the temporary towers are shared by
the engineering team to design and supply for
the temporary towers.
 Final information for the Bridge segments
based on minimum to Zero Moment locations
within the pier’s spans are finalized as per the
advice of the bridge designer. In general, 1/3 of the pier-to-pier Span will be kept as ideal location for the
temporary towers.
 While designing the temporary tower / piers the relative elevation of each segment at its beginning and end of
Bridge part will be highlighted to be taken into account during fabrication and trial assembly stage.
 Final Wt. of each Assembly will be calculated to arrange the suitable Transport and lifting Equipment.
Once the particulars of Engineering Stage are Established with close co-ordination with Contractor’s engineering team
the output of this process will be distributed to the related team members both for client and IBSF to establish
requirement of Temporary supports bases, Supports, Transportation, and fabrication Scope.
14.2 Supply of materials.

Supply of materials for this project is Quoted / considered originally from the mills to cater the optimal materials
sizes / reduction in wastage at the bridge project.
As per the Client’s requirement to accelerate delivery of the materials Local procurement will be initiated. As such the
standard lengths of structural steel sections can be secured which may result in the excessive Steel drops/wastage.
Timely orders must be placed to maximize the Benefit of local purchase and get minimum impact due to ongoing
global finical changes impacting material prices.
14.3 Fabrication and trial assembly

Boulevard parks Bridge project is a special endeavor which require precision at the fabrication stage to ensure that
Actual Bridge installation is accomplished without erection and stability issues. Special attention will be taken to
fabricate the steel on track specially design to
ensure the alignment of connecting members,
relative elevation from one part of the bridge
section to other, and location of the
connections with the ground piers. To ensure the accuracy of the connection with ground piers As built of the piers
will be reflected on the fabricating bridge sections at fabrication stage.
Bridge Deck for the complete project will be mainly fabricated in Plant-4 Located in Jubail KSA. Frames for Each
part and Gate way shed Structures will be Fabricated mainly at our Pltant-1 Riyadh.
Following additional steps will be taken to enhance the process accuracy:
 Plate cutting will be done using computerized plate processing integrated with Detailing outputs from
Engineering process. This will eliminate the possibility of human error.
 Special Platforms will be fabricated to minimize the Assembly issues. The templates will be used as much
possible to maintain the fabricated dimensions specially for the Central trapezoidal section.
 Assembly of the first section will be done on

the platform build to host the built-up
fabrication of the bridge section and to ease
of assembly with the next joining Segment of
the bridge.
 Relative elevation Values available in the

design drawings will be reflected at site based
on the part drawings of each member.
 The Diagonal members for the Bridge will be

Engineered and cut with incorporating the
chamber requirement of each segment.
 Segments Assemblies will be done according

to the Shop drawings with due considerations
to the relative chamber from one edge of the
bridge segment to other.
 The same values of relative chamber will be verified using total Station / dumpy level /Survey machines at
fabrication shop.
 After the assembly of the main part of the Segment -1 is considerably achieved the Section is Thus checked
for its visual features alignment. After inspection by the Quality Assurance team the assembly will be released
for Welding works.
 Special care will be taken at welding stage to minimize the distortions due to welding works using known
methods like backup plates temporary installed to under welding sections, spot welding of base with platform
plates, control of current while doing the continuous welding and limiting the rod / Wire diameters which
require lesser relative current to weld connecting members.
 Constant check will be kept at
welding stage to minimize the
welding re-works and / or
alignment issues.
 In parallel orthotropic deck will
also be assembled and welded as
per the desired shapes and sizes.
Joints along the width of bridge
sections will be avoided as much
as possible. Longer plates will be
used as much possible to reduce
the welding joints. Joints of the
trapezoidal section to the floor plates will be done in upside down position to minimize the welding
distortions.
 Once the orthotropic deck segments are done then the two parts of the orthotropic deck will be assembled
together using the defined connection methods. Bolted connection is used to connect the Deck with the Bridge
structural base. Welding of the orthotropic deck along longitudinal direction using welding tracker will be
done to avoid weld deformities.
It is to be noted that the Areas near the Joints of the Bridge segment end connections will be left without
orthotropic deck to ease the Segment connections in site environment.
 At this Stage the Bridge Section will be moved to the location using Movable platform where lifting of the
bridge section will be easier to handle (That is assembled part of the Bridge larger Weights will be brought to
locations outside the Workshop Shaded part to load directly the segment on the truck as required.
 Ensuring the integrity of the structural at fabrication stage is vital. To achieve the same, next adjacent part of
the bridge shall be started in Joined condition with the earlier fabricated bridge section (bolted / or welded)
Such a way that the Sectional dimensions/ Hole to Hole Distances/ Bolts Assembly (if any) will be fully
completed followed by the above-mentioned fabrication sequence starting from the joint location working
towards the far end of the bridge segment.
 When sufficient amount of assembly and welding at this segment is completed (Ensuring that there is no
change of fabrication abnormalities / distortions then the earlier segment of the bridge can be dismantled and
sent for next process (painting).
 Painting of the Bridge Segment will be done as per the approved painting procedures. The part of the bridge
Main Girder will be primed before assembly of the plates as painting after the Welding procedures completion
will be a difficult to reach task. Before closing the Bridge upper part of main girder paint touchup for the
interior part of the main girder will be done.
 The same sequence of the fabrication works will be adopted to complete the remaining segment of the bridge.
 Architectural Frames and The Gateway Shade Structures will be fabricated using normal fabrication
procedures. Special cares will be taken to ensure the dimensional, Weld and paint quality of these parts of the
bridge.
 After fabrication process the Materials will be sent to the Site using the Transport method stated as under.

14.5 Unloading and Site Assembly
Since the Bridge segments are fabricated in

manageable length to optimize the transportation /
logistic requirement other the workability of the
segments after arrival at site.
Site Assemblies at the ground level are compulsory to
achieve Maximum possible Erected element under the
bridge deck including the orthotropic deck Panels
across the full widths of the Bridge segments.
Both Cycle bridge and Pedestrian bridge deck will be
erected in separate lift and will be joined together after erection on the piers.
So Main Activities at this stage will be done as follows.
Ensure that the site condition and positions for temporary assembly, truck positions and crane for
unloading are arranged a way that the crane capacities for lifting and placing to the temporary locations
are within the range.
Unload the Bridge Segments to the planned assembly locations. As per the safe lifting procedures.
 Locate a suitable space for the Bridge section close to its permanent location to commence the
site assembly.
 At the Assembly area, place the temporary Jigs ~ 1.2 mtr above the ground level to place the
Bridge segments, Leveling plates and shims of different thicknesses around ~100x100x thk. will
be used to adjust the height of the jigs
 Sub segments for the Pedestrian bridge will be assembled at ground adjacent to piers as assembly
and erection sequence.
 After the assembly of the
sections the alignment of the
segments will be checked
against verticality and
horizontally, Relative
chamber values will be
verified using qualified
surveyor and precision tools
like total Station / Dumpy
levels. Face to face
alignment of both sections
will be checked and verified.
Alignments of the weldable
parts will be verified (Grove,
Bevel, and root Gap Backup
strips etc.).
 After the inspection by SBF-
D the Arrangement for the
site welding will be done.
Welding booth will be made
available to avoid the wind
and dust effects on weld.
 SMAW / SAW welding procedures will be used for the full welding. The preheating of the
welding rods will be observed and monitored during the whole welding operation. The required
Backing will be done using the calibrated backing ovens followed by the transfer of the rods to
holding oven till the final deposit of the weld metals using abovementioned welding procedures.
 It will be followed by the full welding of the Segment Joint / bolting of the Segment. Using
appropriate tools and Machinery.
 After the Joint connection is
completed, the joints will be tested
according to approved ITP. (100% UT
for butt weld and 10% MPT for fillet
welds).
 In parallel the Erection team will be
engaged in the installation of
secondary steel for the Framing works.
The framing works will ideally be
completed bellow the bridge deck
before final lift of the bridge segment
to position.
 During the Assembly of the Bridge
Segment one group will be engaged in the installation of Temporary piers as advised by the
engineering team matching the Bridge segments dimensions. The Base of the Temporary tower
will be prepared by the contractor’s team to ensure the affective and accurate erection. The base
will be well compacted and prepared to take the designed loads of the temporary tower including
in process bridge sections self and service weights.
 The Erected temporary towers will be checked by FSA for their accuracy of position / levels and
orientation other than normal alignment and bolting checks by FSA. Adjustment of the
Temporary tower top level will be done at this stage to cater the relative Chamber Value at
subjected pier location to ensure smooth transition of the bridge segments without any bumps or
kicks.
 After completion of the testing

procedures by FSA/SBF-D and
receiving approvals touchup works
will be taken up before lifting of the
bridge including co-ordination with
main contractor (FSA site supervisor
team and FSA HSE team) to ensure
the lifting locations are free from any
hold points/ Pre-requisites of lifting
procedures / Necessary permits, ETC.
 This Step will be followed by the
installation of the Bridge segments.
14.5.1 Propping and De-propping Methodology.(by client)

This project is a special endeavor with
unique design where the Bridge segments
are designed from Exp. Joint to Expansion
Joint as continuous span (Design
Calculation and shop drawings for Temp.
tower Drawings will be submitted
separately ad approved by SBf-D)
Temporary towers are deemed necessary
to support the unfinished segments of the
bridge portions and are advised to be
located at zero or minimum moment
locations, The actual dimensions for
temporary tower will be apart from
installation sequence drawing.
Aside of some special cases all the temporary towers are detailed as per the require criteria.
These locations as well coordinated with the contractors to ensure that the towers provided will have
sufficient capacities to carry the bridge segments during construction stage and to control the deflections at
construction stage due the behavioral change from multi span to simply supported segments.
A plan has been developed for the entire bridge to be used in the construction stage. Accordingly,
engineering works are coordinated as well to pinpoint the location of the construction joints. These Joints
will be welded as per the approved welding plans and details.
The locations and the heights of the temporary towers can be viewed in the attachment which is readily
available as reference to all concerned parties.

 EXCUTION
 Pre-Bolt Tightening
 Prior to the execution of the work, ensure that the steel structure erection and final alignment have
been inspected by the client and released for the final bolt tightening with internal handover
procedure.
 Ensure that the tools, equipment and other accessories to be used for bolt tightening activities
bearing valid calibration certificates (i.e., torque wrench);
 All bolts shall be checked for proper sizes, length, and conformance to specifications,
cleanliness, and absence of burrs.
 Surfaces in between the two steel members shall be thoroughly inspected for solid seating. Any
improper seating shall be rectified, and the bolts are tightened back to snug-tight condition.
 Bolt Tightening:
 After final alignment had been checked and accepted by the client, tighten the bolts using
impact wrench or spanner to snug-tight conditions.
 After bolts are tightened, it shall be identified by means of paint marker on tip of the bolt,
which signifies that the bolts are already tightened to the required pretension.
NOTE:
Snug- tight condition is defined as the tightness attained by either a few impacts of an impact
wrench or the full effort of a worker with an ordinary spud wrench that brings the connected plies
in to firm contact.
 Bolts in connections not within the slip critical category nor subject to tension loads,
nor required to be full tensioned bearing type connections must be installed in properly
aligned holes but need only be tightened to the snug- tight conditions using power tools
or by hand using spanners.
 In critical connections subject to direct tension and fully pre-tensioned bearing
connections, the fasteners together with washers of size and quality specified shall be
tightened by Calibrated Wrench Pre-tensioning.
 QUALITY ASSURANCE / CONTROL

16 Key Risks & Controls

The Hazards, Risks and control measures for the activities to which this Method Statement relates
are contained within Appendix A. In addition, the FSA supervisor will undertake a JSA (Appendix
B), and brief the work force, to ensure all necessary precautions are in place and taken during the
work.
17 Emergency Arrangements
Emergency arrangements will be implemented by FSA in the event of:

 In case the truck header breaks down, then the header will be replaced with another head using
the standard procedures for the head replacement.
 In case the payload trolley is affected due and road incident the pay load will be shifted to the
other Trailer using Adequate Capacity crane and standard unloading loading procedures.
 In case there is damage to the payload to minor extant then minor repairs will be done once the
payload arrives at site. In case the Damage in considerable amount then the payload will be sent
back to factory for repairs or replacement based on the damage estimates.
 The Details of the emergency response team will be shared in the logistic plan.
On site for the duration of the work will be FSA HSE Officers and Site Supervision who are trained
‘First Responders for the purposes of Fire and First Aid and dealing with general emergency
situations. Their contact details are provided below and are posted at the worksite for the duration of
the works. In the event of requiring Ambulance Fire or the Police, the First Responders shall obtain
this assistance.
The First Responders are also trained in engaging with the site security for the purposes of
controlling access to site for the emergency services should they be required.
Were radios or similar communications are being used, identify the emergency channel above.
The First Responder will immediately inform the client of any undesired event on site in line with
FSAs approved reporting procedures. All necessary Investigations and reporting (post event) shall be
undertaken by FSA and were required with the client.
First Aid Kits will be available at key locations throughout the site for use as required, by First
Responders. In the event of the use of Hazardous Substances and Materials and were dictated by the
MSDS, additional First Aid arrangements will be made available at the point of work e.g., Eye Wash
Stations etc.
Notwithstanding the above, there shall be a central First Aid Room at the Office & Welfare area,
with First Aid supplies and a stretcher as required.
18 Housekeeping and Handback

20 Monitoring
Ensuring HSE compliance on site, rest firstly and firmly with FSA Supervision. They will ensure
that the work force is well briefed, comply with the Method Statement requirements, general HSE
requirements of the site and best practice. A key role of the FSA Supervisor is NOT to condone
unsafe practices or allow an unsafe place of work to develop. The FSA Supervisor MUST
intervene on every occasion that this becomes evident. ‘Unsafe Behavior’ will be dealt with by
disciplinary action – refer to Appendix F.
FSA HSE Management and Officers will carry out daily observations of the site and complete a
Daily SOR – Site Observation Report. FSA HSE will intervene on every occasion to ensure
compliance.
Where there is imminent danger from equipment damage or personal injury, FSA will intervene –
STOP work, undertake the required remedial action, and complete FSA ‘Unsafe Act / Condition
Report’
All Reports will be shared with the client and will form the basis of FSAs Monthly HSE
Performance Report.
21 Unsafe Behavior
This is FSAs HSE procedure for dealing with individuals or groups of individuals within the work
force who display Unsafe Behaviors that could give rise to damage of equipment, personal injury or
similar undesired event. The process is formal and is recorded. The results of the process may result
