5- Horizontal Water Proofing Membrane

Purpose:
The purpose of the application of waterproofing is to prevent the water
to percolate or penetrate into any underground concrete members. When
the water penetrates into the sub-grade concrete like foundation such as:
mat foundation, footing, tie beam etc. the steel reinforcement that
embedded in the concrete would corrode due to chemical reaction
caused by water and the structure would eventually fail.
Labor and Equipment:

Materials:
 Approved water proofing membrane.
Responsible Manager
• Site engineer.
Work Procedures:
 Any undulations or protrusions on the surface would be removed

in order to obtain smooth surface. The surface must be thoroughly
cleaned and free from dust, dirt loose materials, oil or grease.
 For horizontal waterproofing membrane application. Two layer of
4mm thick bituminous membrane shall be laid fully torched on
blinding concrete with minimum of 100m end laps and 150mm
side laps.
 The blinding surface shall be primed with the primer
recommended by the manufacturer of the membrane prior to
placing the membrane. Prior to succeeding works the applied
primer shall be inspected by the Engineer 24 hours after the
placement.
 Waterproofing membrane installation shall be performed using
cylinder fed propane gas torch, trowel to seal the seams of the
membrane and knife for cutting.
 The membrane is then placed in the correct torching on position
then re-rolled for about half of its length without changing its
orientation.
 The membrane is then un-rolled again and torched on pressing the
melted area against the substrate.
8|Page
 Repeat till the entire length of the membrane is bonded firmly onto
the surface then the second membrane is laid in the same way with
an overlap of 150mm at the end and 100mm at the side.
 An extra length of minimum 300mm of the horizontal membrane
shall be left to carry up the vertical surface to maintain continuity
of the membrane and be protected as above.
 Before applying the waterproofing membrane, concrete surfaces
shall be primed with primer recommended by the manufacturer of
the membrane but the again it should be inspected by the Engineer
24 hours after the placement.
 The extra portion of 300 mm of the horizontal membrane left shall
be turned up and wrapped on to the vertical primed surfaces. The
continuity of the membrane shall be maintained by minimum laps
of 150mm.
 All areas of the membrane exposed above ground shall be
protected with appropriate flashing.
 Inspection would be submitted for approval of the Engineer.
 Before fixing of steel reinforcement for foundation, the membrane
shall be covered by one layer of polythene sheet and poured with
50 mm thick layer of cement sand screed.

15- Plastering Works

Purpose:
This Method of Statement includes the following;
 Internal Portland cement plaster:
 External Portland Cement plaster:

 Plasterer.
 Helper.
 Plastering Accessories: Metal Lath, angle beads, special pieces for
internal angles and corner.
Material:
 Portland cement.
 Sand.
Responsible Manager
 Site engineer.
Work Procedures
 Clean the surface and remove any dust, contaminated materials on
plaster bases and substrates for direct application of plaster,
removing loose material and substances that may impair the work.
Form ties and other obstruction shall be removed or trimmed back
even with the surface of the solid base.
32 | P a g e
 Dissimilar Backgrounds: where rendering is to be continued

without break across joints between dissimilar solid backgrounds
which are in the same plane, cover joints with 200mm wide
galvanized steel lathing as specified & approved fixed with
corrosion resistant fasteners at not more than 600mm centers along
both edges, apply mesh over electro-mechanical embedded
conduits.
 Apply forcefully dash coat on concrete and concrete masonry
surfaces indicated for direct plaster application. Dash coat is to
cover full surface to be plastered and is to provide rough surface of
sharp protrusions ranging 3.0mm and 5.0mm. Dash-Coat Mix: 2
volume parts Portland cement to 3 volume parts fine sand, 1 part
bonding agent to 3 part clean water mixed to a mushy-paste
consistency shall be left untroweled, undisturbed and moist cured
for at least 24 hours after application and before plastering.
 Install temporary grounds and screeds to ensure accurate rodding
of plaster to true surfaces. Check the straightness in each corner
and add grout to hold the external corner beads in correct and
internal position to be fixed using corrosion resistant fasteners.
 Before plastering starts, dampen, by spraying water concrete dash
coat surfaces that are to receive plaster with clean water.
 All plaster shall be prepared in a mechanical mixer mix 1:5 (1 part
cement and 5 part sand) using sufficient water to produce a
workable consistency. Mix fiber 0.6 kg/m3 of the mortar or plaster
by first mixing with some water (30%). After all the ingredients
have been added including the remaining mixing water, the plaster
should be mixed for a further few minutes until uniform fibre
dispersion. Plaster not used within 1.5h from start of mixing shall
be discarded.
 The second coat shall be applied with sufficient material and
pressure to ensure tight contact with dash coat.
33 | P a g e
 The surface of the second coat shall be brought to a true, even

plane with a rod or straightedge, filling surface defects in place
with plaster.
 Applied plaster shall be floated as smooth as possible and then
steel-troweled. Steel troweling shall be delayed as long as possible
and used only to eliminate the uneven points and to force
aggregate particles into the plaster surface.
 Each plaster coat shall be applied to an entire wall or ceiling panel
without interruption to avoid cold joints and abrupt changes in the
uniform appearance of succeeding coats. Wet plaster shall abut set
plaster at naturally occurring interruptions in the plane of the
plaster, such as corner angles, openings and control joints where
this is possible.
 Make internal angles and corners square.
 Finished grooves shall be neat, of uniform width and depth, sharp
straight edges and exact vertical and horizontal lines. Elevation
grooves shall be cut before plaster sets by using molded guide or
wooden strip and fixing it in temporary grout and screed.
Regarding recessed, follow the Work Procedures same as grooves.
 Form cornices by plastering additional coats against pre-formed
wood templates fixed onto plastered elevation. Make form wood
