be normal erection operations. Errors that cannot be corrected using the foregoing
means, or that require major changes in member or Connection configuration, shall
be promptly reported to Saudi Aramco Site Representative to enable Isam Kabbani
to either correct the error or approve the most efficient and economical method of
correction to be used by the Erector / Builder.
B. In cases where the Builder/Erector believes there are errors in shop fabrication
that prevent the proper assembling and fitting of parts by the use of drift pins,
reaming, chipping or cutting, the Builder/Erector shall immediately report such
matters to the Project Manager. So, Isam Kabbani may either correct the error or
approve the method and cost of the correction to be made. The Builder/Erector
shall furnish a clear description of the problem in his report to Saudi Armco

Any choice..
OR
(2) Authorizing field correction of the problem by a method and at a cost agreed.

7.0 STORAGE AND PROTECTION OF COVERING:

A. When Aluminum, galvanized, or the galvanized pre-painted coating on piled flat

sheets or nested formed sheets or galvanized purlins or girts become wet from rain,
natural condensation, or other causes, white rust may result. This may occur either
in transit or in storage at the jobsite.

B. Formed pre-painted sheets must be protected from moisture in the same manner
as plain galvanized sheets until boldly exposed to the weather. The sheets must be
properly packaged and stored; otherwise, white rust may develop at minute cracks
in the paint and at the cut edges.

C. It is important on receipt of material, to examine packages for damage. Builders

and or Erectors are encouraged to take prompt action where cuts, tears, or other
damage is evident. If a small amount of moisture is present, the sheets should be
dried before restacking or storage. Damp sheets should never be restacked until
thoroughly dry.

D. Roofing and siding sheets should be erected as soon as possible after their arrival
at the jobsite. If temporary storage is absolutely necessary, they should be stored
indoors. Where indoor storage is not possible, the procedure shown in this Method
of Statement must be followed to prevent the entry of moisture into the bundle and
consequent storage stain.

8.0 ERECTION

A. Before starting erection, make sure that you have a complete set of Erection
drawings marked “Issued For Construction”. The Erection drawings list all the
drawings in the set along with the latest revision number and date.

B. It is the Builder / Erector’s responsibility for mobilization, receiving, off-loading

and furnishing necessary tools for the proper erection of the New Shelter for
Pollution Boat at West Pier.

C. The structure should be adequately braced at all times before raising the next
component. The structure must be secured with temporary or permanent bracing
before release of lifting equipment and at the end of the day, weekends or other
shutdowns. When commencing erection of the New Shelter for Pollution at West
Pier, the first bay must be erected with all wind bracing, eave purlins/struts, purlins,
girts and flange braces completely installed and all bolts properly tightened to make
certain that the building is properly braced.

D. All joints should be made up and all bolts are in place before releasing Lifting
Equipment.

E. Until the first run of roof sheets is secured, temporary scaffold should be used to
start sheeting so that Cladding Crew will have something to stand on.

F. All Cladding Crew should be cautioned regarding roof openings. Any uncovered
openings should be properly guarded.

G. Workers should never slide down columns and other structural members. Ladders
should be used to get on and off the building. Wall girts and diagonal braces should
not be used as ladders.

10.0 COMPONENT UNLOADING PROCEDURES

UNLOADING AND MATERIAL LAYOUT

As the building materials are loaded, it should be placed in and around the building
site near the place where it will be used. While each job will vary according to size or
site conditions, the layout below is a typical arrangement which offers convenience
and accessibility during assembly and erection.

 Rigid frame columns are laid in position for raising.

 Rafters are stocked for sub-assembly and easily accessible for setting.

 Girts, purlins, eave struts and bracings are divided according to the
requirement of each bay.

 Nested parts (purlins, girts etc.) Should be separated and blocked to allow
drainage of collected moisture to prevent rusting, prior to erection.
 End wall materials are laid out for each end.

 Small components (nuts, bolts, clips, fasteners etc.) Are stored in a given area
convenient to parts of the building.

PROJECT TITLE NEW SHELTER FOR POLLUTION BOAT AT WEST PIER PAGE 14 OF 45
 p

MS-01
METHOD OF STATEMENT Doc. No. 05

 Wall and roof paneling and other components which will not be used in the
initial stage of erecting the steel are placed to the outside of the work area
and properly stored and protected from weather.
 Insulation should not be stored on the edge of the roll as this will damage the
edges.

STORAGE AND PROTECTION

FOR ROOF AND PANELS

 Block above the ground to keep water out

 Slope bundles for drainage.
 Stack sheeting with spacers between bundles.
 Cover with canvas tarpaulin to protect from rain.
 Tie down cover ends away from the stack to permit air circulation.
 Do not wrap under or restrict air movement.
 Do not use plastic sheeting as a cover because it will promote moisture.

ANCHOR BOLTS:

 It is the responsibility of the civil contractor to lay down / fix the anchor bolts
and to coordinate with the Builder / Erector to check alignment proper to
casting concrete and agree to hand over the anchor bolts to Builder / Erector.

NOTES:

 Assemble roof rafter components on the ground.

 Make sure roof rafter is level and straight before structural bolts are fully
tightened.
 Bolt in place as many clips and flanges braces as possible before raising roof
rafters to reduce erection time as it is easier to assemble these pieces on the
ground than it is to do it in the air.

NOTES:

 If the roof rafter consists of more than tw0 segments, additional purlins are to
be installed while roof rafter is held in place so that there are at two purlins
spanning between roof after segments.

13.0 PLUMBING AND SQUARING

STEP NO. 5

SEQUENCE

As soon as all purlins, girts and eave struts have been installed in the braced bay, it should
be accurately plumbed and square to insure correct alignment of the succeeding bays. This
is accomplished by adjusting the diagonal bracing and temporary bracing in the roof and
wall planes.

 With all the rods loosely installed, plumb the columns of the rigid frame by
tightening or loosening the nut on the brace rods. Remember, when one brace
rod is tightened the other rod must be loosened. When columns are plumb,
sidewall brace rod should be finally tightened to a “Taut” condition. Dimension
“B” must be the same as dimension “A” for columns to be plumb. See fig. 1.

 The roof beams should be aligned in progression from the eave to the ridge.
Plumb the roof rafter at each connection point and the ridge by tightening or
loosening the rod at those points. Stretch a line across the flanges at the base of
the column. Drop a plum bob from the ridge point of the roof rafter. Adjust as
necessary so that the plum bob is in line with the line at the base of columns.
When this occurs the ridge is plumb. See fig. 2

NOTES:

 Before step 2 is started, check to make sure the column and roof rafter flanges
are the same width. If flanges are not the same width, allow for measurement
adjustments to compensate for the width difference before proceeding with
step 2.

PLUMBING AND SQUARING

STEP NO. 5 (Continued)

SEQUENCE ( Continued )

 Check to be sure that ridge point of the rigid frame is over the center line of the
building. Measure to established dim “A” Dimension “B” is ½ dim “A” establish
center line of building from dimensions “A” & “B” and make center line on the
floor slab. Drop a plum bob from the ridge point of the building. Adjust ridge
point if necessary so that plum bob aligns with the center line of the building.

Notes:

 The plumbing and squaring operation is one of the most important functions of
the erection sequence. Spend sufficient time on this sequence to insure the
braced bay is level, plumb and square to avoid problems when continuing the
erection sequence.

Caution:

 This method is not recommended under Conditions that would be affected by

the wind.

SEQUENCE

 Proceed with the erection of the remaining frames and bearing end frames.
 In each braced bay shown on the erection drawings, repeat step 4 before
proceeding with the erection of additional bays.
 Eave struts and peak purlins may be installed in intermediate bays between
braced bays to stabilize frames, however, do not start more work than can be
completed in a work day to ensure all steel component framing is completed in
those bays before leaving the site at the end of the day.

IMPORTANT NOTES :

 As erection progresses, each braced bay must be fully completed as outlined in

step 4 before proceeding with the erection of additional bays.

STEP NO. 7

SEQUENCE

 Complete erection of main and secondary framing.

 Upon completion of all secondary framing in the braced bay, plumbing and
squaring the braced bay, installing secondary framing in the end bay, paneling
may commence and be worked in conjunction with the completion of the
balance of the secondary framing. This could save time on larger buildings if
separate sheeting crews are used.
NOTE:
 When the building reaches this stage of erection, sheeting should proceed
immediately. The structure without sheeting should not be left standing for
prolonged periods of time without taking proper precautions (temporary
bracing, Blocking etc.) To prevent wind damage especially to purlins and girts
due to Excessive vibration they expose to in the unsheathed condition.

15.0 ROOF PANELING

PREVENT DAMAGE

 Rib Roof Panels may be damaged by erection traffic. Traffic damage can be
avoided by the use of walk boards.
 Two sets are suggested; one for the workman laying or fastening panels, the
other for traffic up and down the roof.
 The walk boards are also an excellent safety precaution on steep roofs.
 If you must step on the roof panel, always walk on the flat of the panel, on or
close to the purlins.

“NEVER WALK ON THE MAJOR CORRUGATION”

18.0 INSTALLATION OF ROOF PANELS

 (A) & (C) denote roof sheet panels. (B) denotes ridge peak panel.
 Locate the center of the roof sheet panel exactly over steel line or as indicated
on the erection drawing – attach panels (A) and (C) and then attached ridge
peak panel (B).
 Each side of roof sheet panel and the ridge peak panel must be run in
conjunction with each other to ensure correct alignment.
 Refer to other sections of this manual for details relating to eave alignment of
roof panels, sealer application and fasteners types.
 All damage paint finishes are to be retouched to prevent rusting.
 In the event a screw is installed in the wrong location or should a screw break
during the driving process, remove the screw and install one of the larger
diameters to prevent leakage.
 Concentrated heavy loads (personnel or materials) occurring on the roof during
construction shall be distributed uniformly over a large area in such a manner as
to prevent damage to the building components.
 All metal shavings occurring as a result of drilling operations on the roof are to
be removing in a manner as to prevent damage or staining of roof finish.
(*The roof should be swept clean at the end of each day)

ROOF SHEETING SEQUENCE AND MASTIC APPLICATION

GENERAL SHEETING NOTES

 It is recommended that sidewall and endwall sheeting should precede roof

sheeting.
 The building is to be plumb, square and tight before sheeting begun.
 Sheeting is shown in a left to right pattern as an illustration only. actual sheeting
is begin at the leeward end of the building so that the panel laps will be away
from the prevailing wind. This will improve water tightness of the roof and
prevent wind uplift of unsecured panels.
 Check location of center line of center line of high rib 5mm from steel line at
end of building so adjustment on gain or loss can be made if necessary.
 Erection crew is to sweep roof panels clear all metal shavings daily until roofing
is completed.

drawings have been installed and the installation is in accordance with the contract
requirements.

25.0 HEALTH and SAFETY

 The installation of steel structures has a risk of danger at work. In order to minimize
the danger to those most closely involved and others in the vicinity, two principles
must be applied at all times:

a) Only properly trained and experienced employees should be used on

installation work and they will be adequately supervised.

b) Regular safety reminders will be given to all site employees, which must
be considered and acted upon to minimize the risk of accidents on
installation sites.

Site Conditions

 An untidy or dirty site is a dangerous site. Before commencing work, all rubbish,
obstacles and other potentials hazards are to be removed. The site is to be kept
clean and tidy throughout the construction period by IKK.
 The whole site area must be checked for overhead obstruction, such as electric
cables. Any overhead obstructions are to be removed if possible or clearly marked.
 All the equipment should be properly inspected and evaluated, thus safe entry
permit from Saudi Aramco must be issued before work execution.

Protection of Workers

 Appropriate protection is to be available and is to be used when necessary.

 Safety helmets are to be worn at all times.
 Safety boots/shoes are to be worn at all times.
 Edge protection is to be erected as necessary to ensure that workmen are not
exposed to an unacceptable level of risk.

Fall Protection Plan

 All employees on any project that will be required to wear a personal fall arrest or
restraint system will follow these guidelines:

a) A full body harness will be used at all times.

b) All personal fall arrest systems will be inspected before each use by the
employee. Any deteriorated, bent, damaged, impacted and/or harness
showing excessive wear will be removed from service.

House Keeping and Clean Up

 Good Housekeeping remains the backbone of safety in day to day construction

activities. A job is not completed without a cleanup operation. Therefore,
continuous emphasis will be given to good housekeeping to demonstrate
management commitment. All the area required to be cleaned and the waste is to
be collected, stored and disposed accordingly.

Exceptionally adverse weather conditions

 The interpretation of what is exceptionally adverse weather and whether work

should be suspended due to there being an unacceptable level of risk either to the
workmen or of doing damage to equipment on site, the following must be
considered:

a) The effect of high winds on the safe handling of elements.

b) The effect of rain and sand storms on working surfaces, ladders, scaffolds.
