L.L.C. is a manual for our customers to help them to ensure full satisfaction with our product.

2. PROCEDURE FOR STANDARD HOLLOW CORE SLAB JOBS:


After the customer has placed the order for precast concrete Hollow Core Slabs with UPC. UPC commences with the
design and fabrication works.

The design, fabrication and installation consist of the following activities:

To commence design of the Hollow Core Slabs UPC requires all relevant structural drawings in the latest
revision and loading details. In case any ducts or openings of 100mm dia. or larger are required, then these are
to be finalized during design stage.

Based on these information UPC will provide the following design documentations:

Erection is done in continuous operation. On in-situ concrete structures, the Hollow core slabs are placed on leveling
shims (PVC) for proper leveling purpose.

7.2 ERECTION OF HCS:


Hollow core Slabs are delivered to site on flat bed trailers.

The HCS are loaded to a maximum capacity of 30T and quantity on each load shall vary
based on weight of the elements depending on size and thickness of the Hollow core
slabs. Trailer is brought close to the building, under crane area where erection is to be
carried out.

The lifting area surrounding the trailer and areas below the erections should be cordoned
for safety reasons.

Setting out and marking is carried out with the help of site grid reference points (given
by Main Contractor)

The levels on the precast wall panels/beams are perfected with PVC shims (if required
only) with the help of the site reference points (given by Main Contractor).
The soffit levels of hollow core slabs on the precast elements will be as per the final top
levels of those structures.

Slabs will be delivered with open cores. Cores to be closed with polystyrene core plugs
before lifting the hollow core slab from load to avoid flow of concrete in the core while
screed.

In case of HCS requiring core filling, UPC shall deliver the HCS with hacked cores (as per design
requirement and approved drawings), these cores (to avoid flow of concrete into the cores)
shall be plugged (at the core fill end) by UPC and slab installed for main contractor to
proceed reinforcement and structural screed.

Slabs are lifted directly from the trailer and placed in position one by one by mobile crane

Note: If site is not ready then the slabs will be offloaded at the site on timbers
safely on well compacted and flat surface (to be provided by the Main
Contractor).

Full slabs are lifted using the specially designed lifting equipment

Weight of lifting equipment is as following: Slab Weight Weights of lifting equipment


0-6ton 1.0ton
6-8ton 2.6ton
8-12ton 4.6ton
12-16ton 6.3ton

The lifting clamps shall be placed 750mm from the ends of the slabs. The chain between
clamps and beams shall be 900.

The angle between the chains on the lifting shall be less than 600.

When lifting narrow slabs (width less than 1200mm) and slabs with cut-outs near the
end, sling belts will be used.

When lifting with clamps always use the safety chains underneath the slab. The chains
should not be released until the slab is about 300mm from the support. (Satisfactory scissor
clamp functioning without slip with monitored grip on slab shall be ensured)

After the completion of the erection, the levels are checked from below and corrections are
carried out if wherever necessary. If the level difference is in the mid span (due to camber
variation), then the levels are corrected by clamping with ‘Tie Rods’. The ‘Tie Rods’ to be
protected from sides with Hessian cloth or polystyrene for easy removal after joints grouting.

Note: ‘Tie Rods’ so provided should be released only 1 or 2 days after the grouting works
are completed.

Tamping between the hollow core slabs and the Cast-In-Situ support beam and grouting the
joint to be followed (by Main Contractor).
Tamping between the hollow core slabs and Cast-in-Situ support beam can be done together
with erection or after completion of erection and leveling of hollow core slabs.

The joints between the 2 slabs are provided with reinforcement (by the main contactor) as
per approved drawings and filled along with the structural screed.

8. CUSTOMER’S RESPONSIBILITY
After erection and leveling of the slabs, UPC has completed their scope of the work, and the responsibility of slabs is
handed over to UPC customers – normally the main contractor by way of work inspection request.

WORK TO BE PERFORMED BY THE CUSTOMER:

After erection and leveling is completed, UPC will raise the Inspection Request (IR) and upon approval, grouting the hollow
core joints and tamping (if tamping is to be done after erection) between the Hollow Core Slabs and the cast in-situ support
beam to be taken up (by main contractor).

For brief information of the mix requirement refer below.

Hollowcore Slab – Grout Mix Requirements

Same as Screed concrete or minimum as below

Hollowcore Tamping Mix Requirements

For tamping, use relatively dry sand-cement mortar with less than 05mm aggregates or similar to planter mortar.

Note: UPC only recommends the above requirements but does not design the mix.

9. PROBLEMS TO BE AVOIDED
If grouting / tamping and curing is not done immediately after erection and leveling, or of it is done improperly, the following
problems may arise:

− If the slabs are loaded before grouting and tamping, i.e. with building materials for further upwards construction, then
these loads will definitely push the slabs out of level and maybe, even cause cracks due to overloading.

− If holes, i.e. for fan hooks, electrical installation etc. are drilled into the slabs before grouting and tamping, then the
drilling will possibly push the slabs out of level.

− If the joints are left un grouted for a longer period of time, then the joints will inevitably be filled with dirt and dust, which
will prevent a proper grouting, and most importantly, will spoil the structural shear key between the slabs.

− Other problems can arise. So, grout and tamp immediately after erection and leveling.

When grouting and tamping is completed, the slabs are, in most cases, covered with 50-100mm screed or structural
topping (by the customer). When curing the screed, it is recommended to cover the screed with wet canvas and polythene
sheets instead of a continuous pour of water.

This procedure will give good curing humidity and reduce the amount of water used for curing.

For advice and supervision, feel free to contact UPC.

We will always be at your service.

10. SAFETY
1) Proper access for trailers and mobile cranes to be provided by Main Contractor.

2) Trailers to be brought close to the erection area/location and the lifting area surrounding the trailers to be cordoned.

3) Driver of trailer to be alert and follow instructions while reversing.

4) Crane operators should be always alert and clearly understand the signals from the bangs man/foreman and there
should be proper rapport/understanding between them.

5) Crane should be positioned firmly with the out riggers extended and rested firmly on spreader plates/planks.

6) All personnel should wear safety shoes and helmets.

7) Persons working at height should wear safety harness and hook to the life saving tag line (provided by the Main
Contractor)

8) The erection area to be cordoned and ensure no one is moving below the erection area and the lifted element.

9) While lifting the elements with scissors, the element should be provided with safety slings from under at both lifting
points.

10) The element should be controlled with long tag line provided at both ends.

11) Persons working above the trailers and persons involved in erection should wear safety hand gloves.

12) Persons should wear safety goggles when operating grinders.

11. CORE DRILLING IN HOLLOWCORE SLABS


UPC will provide openings of Ø250mm X250mm and above only in hollow core slabs which will be made during
production. Openings of less than Ø250mm X 250mm will not in UPC scope of work.

Small holes and recesses between strands at the position of the voids are usually made at the building site. The shaded
areas on the cross section below indicate their positions. In some cases, it is acceptable to cut the pre-stressed steel
strands. However, this should be closely coordinated with UPC Structural Engineers before making such openings.

UPC uses the wet drilling technique and has fully trained drilling teams for this purpose only.

All required MEP openings should be clearly marked on the top surface of the slab, indicating size and location (by Main
Contractor).

In order to avoid cutting any strands in hollow core slabs unintentionally, all core drilling should be done prior to casting of the
screed.

All openings required in the hollow core slabs should be coordinated before the production takes place.
