WORK METHOD STATEMENT

WORK METHOD STATEMENT

PROCEDURE:

Background Preparation

Surfaces should be reasonably dry, clean and protected from the weather, and suitable for
the chosen specification. In addition, before plastering concrete backgrounds, ensure that
any mould oil or other agents present are removed from the surface. No-fines concrete does
not require wetting prior to plastering. Plaster should not be applied onto a ‘green’
background or when any free water is visible. Clean water should be applied 5-10 minutes
before plaster application to control the suction. In-situ or pre-cast concrete which are
exceptionally smooth or having low suction will require pre-treatment with Gyproc Bond-It
bonding agent.

Mixing

Gyproc Elite-100 /90 is pre-mixed with aggregate and only clean water needs to be added
to prepare it for use. Mixing should be carried out in a clean tray or bath. Excessive
mechanical mixing should be avoided. Tools and water used in mixing must be clean.
Contamination from previous mixes can shorten the setting time and in turn reduce the
strength of the plaster when set. Water to plaster ratio (1 part of water: 1.25 part of plaster by
weight) should be maintained to have good cohesive workable mix. Prepare plaster mix as
much as required depending upon the immediate scope of work. Once the mix has begun to
set, additional water is not to be added, as performance properties of plaster will get altered,
thus affecting workability, cohesiveness, adhesion properties and strength.

Application

POP should be applied with firm pressure, built out to the required thickness, and ruled to
an even surface and left as an undercoat to form a key for finish coat. A thin plaster mix is
made and applied as a finish coat to provide smooth surface. It can be applied to an average
thickness range of 3-15 mm on walls in one coat and up to 10 mm on ceilings. For punning
S/C plaster surface should be wetted before application to provide firm bonding. After
complete drying for usually 72 hours (depends upon thickness and weather conditions) the
plain smooth levelled surface is ready for painting.
