4. SEQUENCE OF WORK/ METHOD STATEMENT
The installation works will be done in two phases. The first phase is 161m on the quayside and 186m on
the landside. The second phase will be 1 x 237m (middle rail).
Although the construction of the sea and land side is different as the middle rail construction, the
installation and sequence of working for both construction is similar
To ensure the quality of the works, safety, and planning the following site conditions are essential:
- The working location is free and no other activities take place at the same moment and place. This means
Berth 5 will be free during the complete first phase of the rail works and so on.
- Prior to each phase, BemoMMP will receive survey reports from the existing beams, both quay and
landside. The survey reports will show the dimensions of the existing concrete recesses (depth and
width), the depth related to the rail height reference, individual straightness, and center-to-center
alignment between both existing recesses.
- Reference points and offsets are marked on both the quay and land beam from the first day of the
installation of each phase.

4.1 Supply of material

The materials will be supplied by the customer. With use of a forklift and/ truck with crane the container and
material will be unloaded. The supervisor will check the materials according the freight documents and
packing lists. The results will be filled in on the checklist. In consultation with the client a storage space will
be determined.
4.2 Storage of material

Prior to the works, the crane rail and all other supporting and related materials will be delivered and unloaded
out of containers. A storage location would be close to working area. Soleplates and rails would be kept on berth
itself. Two containers either 20ft or 40ft will be at site for storage. One container would contains tools and
welding material and other would contain grout material.

AND
RISK ASSESSMENT
4.3 Laying Rails for welding

The works will start by laying out the crane rail. The crane rail will be placed on both beams over the
complete length of each phase.
The crane rail will be moved by using a forklift or other lifting equipment and placed on wooden pieces, just
next to the recess (not into the recess).
4.4 Welding
The rail joints will be welded according to the puddle arc welding methodology, applied welding standard
ISO-NEN-EN 3834-4.
Puddle arc welding is a welding process in which electrodes are used to obtain lengths without disruptions.
The complete welding process is done by hand. The working sequence for the puddle arc welding process
will be as follows:
- Aligning rail joint in height and direction by using steel wedges. A copper plate will be under the rail
joint
- Pre-heating rail ends by using heaters, supplied by oxygen and propane
- Welding feet from the rail joint by using electrodes. Earthing cable, welding machine and torch are
the most common equipment and tools for this activity. A power aggregate will take care of the
required power supply of 400V-32A.
- Welding body and head from the rail joint by using electrodes. Earthing cable, welding machine and
torch and copper blocks are the most common equipment and tools for this activity. A power
aggregate will take care of the required power supply of 400V-32A
- Removing copper blocks and steel wedges. To ensure both the quality and safety the welding works
will be carried out outside defining exclusion zone
- Re- profiling crane rail by means of using an electrical driven grinding machine after the cooling
down period from the weld
- After completion of all the welding works, a visual inspection will be carried out to check the quality of
the welding.

4.5 Placing soleplates on concrete beam

Separately from the welding works, the steel soleplates will be placed into concrete recess. Similar to laying-out
the crane rail, a forklift or other lifting equipment will be used to place the soleplates into the recess.
Prior to the placing the soleplates, the concrete floor needs to roughened to ensure binding with the grout
4.6 Mounting and Level adjustment of crane rail system

According to the reference points, the height of the rail construction will be determined. By using the forklift
or other lifting equipment the welded crane rail will be placed on top of the soleplates into the recess.
Rubberpad would be layed on soleplates. Then crane rail will be mounted on the soleplates by using the rail
clips. Using the adjustment bolts and a leveling instrument the rails can be leveled.

RISK ASSESSMENT
The alignment works are briefly consisting of:

- Check on width, depth and alignment from concrete recess related to the reference points.
- Aligning the crane rail in height by using temporary hexagon bolts and the tapped holes in the
soleplate
- Aligning in horizontal direction by using temporary wedges between the soleplate sides and concrete
recess
BemoMMP will use both a levelling instrument, total station instrument and alignment tools to perform the
alignment works.
The alignment works can only be carried out by the availability of reference points. The reference points
will be provided from the first day of the installation.
Next to the reference points the client will also take care of a survey report from the existing concrete recess
prior to the works. The survey reports will show the dimensions of the concrete recesses (depth and width),
the depth related to the rail height reference, individual straightness and centre-to-centre alignment between
both recesses at each three meters

4.8 Fixing holding down (Anchor bolt)

With the use of electric drill or air hammers, the anchor holes are drilled with a diameter of 25 mm. After
drilling the holes will be cleaned and the anchors M20 are glued with special anchor mortar.
4.9 Fine adjustment of rail construction

After curing of the anchor mortar the alignment/adjustment of the rail construction will be checked If
necessary the rails will be adjusted. After this so called fine alignment the results will be noted on the
checklist
Page 18 of 47
AND
RISK ASSESSMENT
4.10 Grouting of rail construction with Cementitious grout

After approval of the alignment of the crane track, the construction is ready to be grouted with cementitious
grout.
Cement grout is a mixture of cement, water, with or without aggregate and with or without admixture.
The concrete under the soleplates must be cleaned by air blowing and high water pressure. The air being
used is free of oil. It is necessary the beam is dust free.
Mix the cementitious grout with hand and Grout the soleplates according to the product specification.
The grout must flow under the soleplates from one side of the construction. This is to prevent air holes under
the soleplates.
For middle rail, wooden formwork will be made for grouting.
4.11 Tighetning of holding down bolts

After hardening of the grout, approximately 24 hours. Remove the adjustment bolts.
The anchor bolt nuts and clips will be tightened.
The M20 clip bolts in quality 8.8 will be torqued to a minimum of 250 Nm
The M20 anchor bolts in quality 8.8 will be torqued after proper curing to a minimum of 125 Nm
