Performing all tests, measurements and inspection required by Contract.
2.1 ABBREVIATIONS
The Construction Manager is responsible for the implementation of this procedure for
the over all direction and coordination with the QA/QC Manager for monitoring,
coordinating
and control of all the erection activities.
The Site QA/QC Manager is responsible to verify the proper implementation of the quality
systems and to implement quality control activities related to erection.
When required for any modification Welding filler metal shall conform now to BS 5135,
BS 639 and ISO 5182 /E7018 welders and welding WPS as per BS4871 & BS 4872
4.3 EQUIPMENT AND TOOLS
All tools and equipments to be used for erection shall be standard (not allow any
fabricated or hand made fouls) in good order, safe condition and sufficient quantity.
Examples of tools and equipment are:
Cranes
Lifting gear including sling wires,belts,chackles,ect.
Plastic Ropes to be used as guide only during lifiting not for any lift. 2
The Project Planner is responsible to plan the sequence of erection of steel structure
according to the Construction Master Schedule.
He is also responsible to monitor the progress of the work and to keep informed the
Construction Manager and Project Manager for any deviation from the original schedule.
Planning of steel structure erection shall be made according to erections priority
and material availability.
6.0 ERECTION DRAWINGS
The Technical Office (TO) receive the steel structures drawings from engineering department.
Based on the availability of drawings, material after fabrication, specifications and in
congruence with planning, TO shall issue detailed drawings for erection and copy to all the
concerned departments (AFC DWGS & Last Rev). 1
The Material Control Manager (MCM) shall receive all steel structures in accordance with the
procedure and shall be responsible for checking quantity and type of materials indicated in
the packing list and QC inspector checks for quality. The damages shall be immediately
notified to take the required measures.
The materials shall be stored, handled and preserved in accordance with the procedure.
8.0 CHECK FOR FOUNDATIONS
Before commencing work, center lines, locations, orientation, chipping and
elevations of foundations shall be checked for prescribed tolerances.
Support shims shall be located after marking the centre lines on the plinths.
At least 3/4 shims packs with levelling mortar shall be provided for the base plates of each
column. Centre lines marked on plinths shall have a tolerance of 1 mm and elevation
of 1 mm.
The foundation bolt surface that will come in contact with concrete shall be free from
dirty and oily matters or points. Foundation surface shall be chipped prior to erection activity.
According to the sequence and schedule of erection, the following preliminary checks
shall be carried out before erection activities begin, in order to verify:
11.1 GENERAL
Erection shall be in accordance with Re fer e nce documents listed in item 2.0 and shall include
the setting of all columns, beams, trusses, grating and handrails, the erection and complete
installation of all other structural steel to true line, grade and plumpness.
Structural steel shall be plumbed with suitable guy wires and held in plumb during field erection.
Guy wires shall be placed so as not interfere with other necessary work.
The setting out of the works - the accurate positioning, plumbing, lining, and leveling of all
steel works shall be in accordance with the drawings.
Steel shall not be placed or erected on concrete foundations or floor slabs until the concrete has
cured.c
Holes shall not be made or enlarged by thermal cutting to correct fabrication errors. Minor
rectification to holes as necessary for field installation shall be made by drilling and subsequent
touch up by zinc rich paint such as galvofroid.
All work during erection shall be securely bolted and if required temporarily braced. No permanent
bolting shall be executed until correct position and alignment have been obtained
No equipment shall be supported from the steelworks until the structure is securely bolted, grouted
and inspected.
Every erected steel component shall be free from contamination, twist and distortion.
Correction of minor misfits and a reasonable amount of reaming and cutting shall be considered a
legitimate part of erection. Any error in shop work which prevents the proper assembling and
fitting up to parts by the moderate use of drift pins, reaming or cutting shall be reported
immediately and approval shall be obtained for the method of correction prior to connecting the
error.

The contact surfaces of bolted elements shall be free from rust, mill scale, grease, etc. Bolts
already used and previously tightened shall not be re-used.
All site bolted connections shall be assembled and torque tightened in accordance with Appendix
A. After the torque tightening of bolts shall be identified by the paint on the bolt head.
All material, plant and equipment used shall be of sound construction and free from flaws.
Bolts designed for transmitting forces in structural member connections, shall have a minimum
diameter as follows:
Minimum diameter
For main members, bracings and struts 20mm
For secondary, i.e. bracings, purlins, 16mm
Ladders, handrails, etc.
(Unless noted otherwise on standard drawings).
Except otherwise noted on design drawing, hole diameter for bolts shall be as follows
Diameter bolt, plus:
Based on the defined priority, structural members shall be assembled prior to erection for
ease of construction with due consideration to lifting capability and study.
The following sequence shall be followed:
Clean the foundation pockets and anchor bolts and chipping. 2
Prepare shim plate above concrete mortar and control the required bottom elevation
of steel structure base plate;
Ensure the correct gap between bottom of base plate and top of concrete
For required Grout thickness;
Mounting of first level of columns/beams or assembly;
Splicing and diagonal measurement at various phases /Floors;
Check verticality of columns in two directions and base plate elevation;
Bolt tightening;
Control of splicing (bolted) and diagonal measurement at various phases;
Control of bolting.
Nuts and washers shall be as specified in the drawings.
Tightening of joints shall require first tightening of mid bolts and then of adjacent bolts.
Tightening of big joints shall be carried out in two steps using first a torque of approx. 60%
of the prescribed value and then the prescribed torque.
Grouting of the column base plates can be executed after checking for diagonal
splicing and bolting or after completed operations as specified above.
Nelson nails or equivalent for grating fastening shall be nailed; surfaces where the Nelson
nails will be applied shall be previously cleaned to remove grease, oxides, etc.
Friction joints column to column:
Contact end surfaces of the joints between the column sections shall be flat.
Joint covers and their padding if any shall be mounted after checking
For the contact.
Each joint before tightening shall be checked for holes coaxiality.
