This method statement is intended as a guideline for Access Engineering PLC – Cooperate Office (The
Developer/ Engineer) personnel & Access Engineering PLC – Project Management Division II (The
Contractor) site staff to ensure safe and efficient work activities of Design & Construction of Multi-
Storied Public Car Park at Union Place.
Interlocking pavers can add aesthetic appeal to driveways, patios and walkways. Pavers are also known
to be stronger than poured concrete and are easy to use
To maintain and repair The intended purpose of this method is to complete the work as per the
specification while maintaining good workmanship. Accordingly the method statement has been
prepared based on the Specifications.
2. SCOPE OF WORK
Interlock paving area indicated in the UDA car park site detail layout drawing and landscaping drawing
and any other interlock paving area which will be additionally added to this scope.
3. METHOD OF APPLICATION
3.1. Surface Preparation
 Well compacted soil/ABC base to be prepared for the given grades and levels according to the
drawing and designer’s instructions prior to commence interlock brick paving works.
3.2.Bedding layer
 Minimum 25mm thick bedding layer shall be made with quarry dust or accepted grade of sand to
the required grade and levels.

 Need to add enough water to the bedding layer prior to run plate vibrating compactor on the
surface to achieve desired compaction and final surface leveling to be done after the compaction.
 No testing to do for the bedding layer but final grade and levels to be checked and compare with
the requirement.
 Paving installation for the compacted area shall be commenced then and bedding layer help to
ensure the final levels and to keep pavers in place.
 Small area or plate vibrating compactor application impossible areas to be allowed to compact
with manual taming.
3.3.Install edge restraint
Install a stable edge restraint to eliminate any lateral movement of the pavers and Quarry dust bedding.
Examples of edge restraints include an existing hard edge (such as the side of a house), vinyl moulded
restraints or concrete restraints.
3.4.Lay the pavers
Place pavers on the flat sand bed, working in a forward motion. Start the process at either a 90-degree
corner or within the field by using a pre-set string to guide the straightness of the pavers.
3.5.Vibrate the Pavers
Once the paver field and borders have been placed, spread a light layer of quarry dust or sand over the
pavers and run a vibrating plate compactor over them to begin the interlocking process.
3.6.Sand the pavers
Spread dry paver joint or masonry sand over the surface of the paver area approximately ¼ inch deep.
Using the vibrating plate compactor, pass over the sanded pavers two or three times to allow sand to fill
the voids between the pavers. Sweep remaining sand into voids until they are completely filled.
4. SAFETY MANAGEMENT
