activities will be done.
Now here is the method statement of painting works.
1. Title
Method Statement for Painting Works
2. Purpose and scope
The purpose of this method is to describe the measures and ways of
proper application of paint at control tower. Works shall be carried out
in compliance with the drawings, project specifications, and materials.
3. Work procedure
1. Mock-up
Mock up sample would be made for selection and approval of the
Engineer prior to commencement of the works.
2. Preparation
Hardware materials which are already fixed and not to be painted
shall be removed. Removal if not possible, it shall be
covered/protected appropriately before surface preparation and
painting will commence.
Clean and prepare concrete or cement plaster surfaces to be
painted. Efflorescence, chalk, dust, dirt, grease and oils shall be

After completion of compaction and application of Anti-termite, the
blinding shall then be cast.
But the QA/QC Engineer shall take first the approval of the
applications of Anti-termite from the Engineer by submitting an
Inspection Request ( IR ).
Here is the Method Statement of this activity:
1. Title
Method Statement for Blinding Works
2. Purpose and scope
1. The purpose of this is to describe the measures and ways of
doing blinding works on our project site. Works shall be carried
out in compliance with the drawing and project specifications.
3. Work Procedure (Blinding)
1. Setting out
[Company] surveyor would conduct a site survey to stake-out
the lines and levels of the areas of the blinding to be cast.
The mark shall be as per the approved drawing.
2. Application
After getting compaction test results which shall be equal or
above the 95 percent of the Maximum Dry Density.
The shuttering form on the blinding must be fixed, aligned
and leveled properly before start pouring concrete.
The Engineer must check the setting out, dimensions,
alignment, thickeness and the level for the shutter of the
blinding through inspection request from the contractor.
The Anti-termite shall be sprayed on the compacted blinding
area by using the approved materials and works will be as
per approved Anti-termite method statement.
The newly placed Anti-termite shall be properly covered by
using an approved polythene sheet commonly with a 1000
gauge thickness.
The concrete must cast within 24 hours after the Anti-termite
has been placed.
The contractor must prepare a sketch showing the casting
areas, pump and trucks access, pump location, concrete
trucks checkpoints and submit to the Engineer.
Skilled laborers provided with all safety requirements such s
safety helmet, overalls, safety shoes, goggles. gloves, vests,
etc.
Safety precautions shall be taken into considerations starting
from the site entrance gate including the pump and trucks
access to the surrounding of the casting area.
Proper light must be available for when of concrete pouring
at night.
The concrete trucks must unload the concrete within One-
and-a-half hours from the batch loading time.
The blinding thickness shall be achieved as per drawing or
specification.
The cast blinding shall be cured properly with covering wet
hessian clothe.
Concrete must be cured of two to three times daily for a
period of 7 days.
The blinding shall then be protected with a safety warning
device to prevent the cast blinding from damages that may
cause by the working machinery.
The surface of blinding shall be made smooth, repair of
thermal cracks and make true leveling to receive
waterproofing bitumen.
