4. QUALITY CONTROL
1. Quality of installation and materials at site will be ensured by our project
team consisting of a Project Manager, Project Engineers, QA / QC Officer and
the site Supervisor. All will be according to the Specification, Applicable
standards and /or industry norms.
5. EQUIPMENTS/ TOOLS / MANPOWER/MATERIALS
5.1. Materials used
1. All materials to be used are as per the approved material submittals.
5.2. Tools & equipment
The following Tools and Equipment will be used for this Installation:
1. Hand tools
2. Drill Machines
3. Measuring equipment
4. Hack saw
5. High pressure PVC Glue
6. Pipe Wrenches & Spanners, etc.
7. Place the pipe on the brackets and insert the “U” bolts and tight it firmly.
2. Joints in threaded steel pipe will conform to the British Standard BS 21.
All burrs will be removed, pipe ends will be reamed or filed out size of bore,
and all chips will be removed.
4. Install piping neatly, free from unnecessary traps and pockets. Work into
place without springing or forcing. Use fittings to make all changes in
direction. Make all connections to equipment using flanged joints or
unions. Make reducing connections with reducing fittings only.
5. Remove dirt, scale and other foreign matter from inside piping before
tying in sections, fitting, valves or equipment.
6.1.6.. Offsets and Fittings
1. Carefully investigate the structural and finish conditions affecting the
work and take such
steps as may be required to meet such conditions.
2. Install all piping close to walls, ceilings and columns so piping will
occupy the minimum
3. space. Proper space will be provided for covering and removal of pipe,
special clearance,
and for offsets and fittings.
4. Pipe work will be installed not closer than 200 mm to electrical conduits,
lighting, and
power cables. Pipes will be spaced in ducts, ceilings, voids and plant areas,
such as adequate access is permitted to any pipe for maintenance or
removal without disturbance to the remaining pipe work and other services.
5. Couplers, unions and fittings will be screwed up to the reduced depth of the
thread, such that no more three-turns are showing when pulled up tight.
6. All pipes, valves and fittings and connected equipment will be thoroughly
cleaned of rust, sand and dust, scale and other foreign matter before
erection and before any initial fill water for hydraulic testing.
7. Prior to hydraulic testing, all pipe work systems including valves, strainers
and fittings will be washed thoroughly. Such washing of the piping systems
will be carefully carried out where there are isolation valves or equipment
are employing.
8. Any stoppage due to foreign matter or air lock which is found to impede the
flow of fluid will be removed, either before or after the systems are in
operation.
9. Fittings will be of the eccentric pattern to ensure proper drainage and the
elimination of air pockets wherever necessary. Increases or decreases in
pipe diameters required to suit fittings, tee-offs and equipment connections
will be formed using taper pieces, flanged as Required with taper reduction
located about axis of the pipe to facilitate proper flow and to allow proper
venting and draining of the pipes. The angle of the taper of such fabricated
taper pieces will not be greater than twenty (20 ▫) degree.
3. Finally apply approved quality Post Office Red paint on the pipes after
hydraulic test and in the final stages.
1. Once the pipe fabrication is over all pipes will be cleaned inside and
outside for removal of
dust and debris before laying them in the trenches.
2. Underground portion of pipes will be tightly wrapped with bitumen tape
with 20mm overlapping until the pipe surface is full wrapped and seal
against atmosphere.
3. Finally full wrapped pipes are laid in the trenches for flanged connection
with HDPE pipes.
2. Locate exact location of these Cabinets as per approved shop drawings and
with careful measure of elevation and plumb.
Insert six Nuts and bolts to mounting base of the hydrant point
and tight it firmly.
Drill the marked points by using Hilti drill machine and insert &
lock the anchor bolts.
Place the Fire Pumps on the Pump plinth and Insert the rubber
anti vibration mounting pads between the plinths and pump
base.
Insert the correct size bolts in to pumps base and tight it firmly
by checking the levels of the pumps.
Lay the power cables from the Pump control panel by using the
cable tray. Please refer method statement of installation of
cable tray and installation of cables for more info.
Rotate the motor fan manually and check for smooth rotation
1. After piping is erected, all piping systems including main header line and
branch line will be cleaned to remove all mill, welding scale, oil, corrosion,
and other construction debris.
2. System will be flush cleaned and filled ready for service immediately after
cleaning.
3. Do not operate pumps or equipment until debris has been removed from
the respective system has been flushed out.
4. Flush the piping system until all debris is removed and clean water comes
out.
5. Automatic devices which can become clogged during the cleaning process
will be disconnected and will not be connected permanently until the
cleaning process is complete.
6.5 Installation of Fire detection system and accessories
a. Conduiting works
Prior to commence the installation, check all materials are of
approved brand, Size and free from defects such as corrosion,
dents,..etc
Site supervisor will study and counter check the proposed locations
of the conduit as shown on the approved shop drawing. Ensure
proper coordination with the Main Contractor and other trades to
optimize the space allocation.
Technicians will mark the point locations and conduit path by using
permanent marker as shown in the approved shop drawing with
assistance of supervisor and double check the dimensions for any
corrections.
PVC conduits run in the concrete slab will be tightened to the rebar
using binding wires in order to protect conduits and to keep their
location unchanged.
All PVC conduit joints will be glued and socketed and only standard
fittings will be used for joining.
Install bends, junction boxes etc in to the conduit using PVC solvent
cement and make sure the joint is properly fixed.
Place the conduits as per approved shop drawings and bracket the
conduit by using Saddles in 2m intervals where exposed conduiting
is required.
All cables shall run from point to point without joints. All cable
installation shall be on pre-laid conduits, cable trays or cable
ladders.
Prepare wires for pulling. Make sure that the wires are properly
marked for their circuit number designation.
