PR
of mortar on the forms and reinforcing steel above the layer being placed.
Immediately after the concrete is placed in the forms, it shall be consolidated by spading, hand tamping or vibration
as necessary to insure smooth surfaces and dense concrete. Each layer shall be consolidated to insure monolithic
bond with the preceding layer. If the surface of a layer of concrete in-place sets to the degree that it will not flow

TP 12-02 CONSTRUCTION METHOD
Roof frames should be well anchored. Purlins should be straight, level and parallel to each other. Regular
PR
spacing of purlins should be based on metal thickness and profile of roof to be installed. The distance of
the topmost purlins to the ridge line should be 0.15 meter. Gutter should be installed before any roofing is
laid. If possible, carry out all panel cutting on a flat surface. Use a straight edge as a guide and mark off the
length where the cut is to be made.
Cement from concreting works, waterproofing compounds, chemical solutions, paint, welding sparks, nails
and iron tools should not be allowed to extend, to drop on or rust away on the roof since removal or
scraping of such materials later could damage the roof’s coating.
AP
Scaffolding should have protective caps on the points of contact with the roof and should rest gently on
the roof edges, gutters and end-flashing to prevent dents and scratches.
Roof traffic should be minimized. All walking should be done along purlin location when crossing the roof
area, alongside laps or in wooden planks laid atop the roof panels. Walking on ridges or valleys between
purlins may dent the roofing and roof sheets.
Pick-up all the discarded scrap materials, especially ferrous metals such as nails and wires. Immediately
wash all plastering sites with water.
Measurement and payment for Roofing and Tinsmith Works will be based on area in square meters placed
which includes necessary touch-up painting installed and accepted by the Contracting Officer.
Payments shall constitute full compensation for all labor, materials, equipment, tools and all incidentals
necessary for the completion of these works.
