3. Construction Methodology
• The reinforcement bars shall be ordered from the approved cut & bend sub-contractor / supplier
with all necessary documentation as required.
• Once offloaded the reinforcement bars shall be checked against the documentation to ensure
compliance. Once the delivery order and mill certificate have been stamped with acceptance by
the CONTRACTOR QCE, the material shall be stacked in the storage yards/ lay down area.
• The storage yards shall be set up to ensure that the quality of the reinforcement does not fall
below acceptable limits before it’s’ placement at site. To ensure this:
i. Keep material off the ground by supporting by timber / concrete pad at all times.
ii. Keep material covered whenever possible.
iii. Handle and stack material to prevent deformation.
• The straight bars received at site will be stacked in the steel yard. The steel reinforcement shall
be stacked clear off the ground and covered with polyethylene sheet to protect from moisture.
• As per the construction program and the priority given by the construction manager to steel
general foreman, the cutting and bending of steel reinforcement for that particular structural
element will commence as per the approved shop drawings and bar bending schedule (BBS).
• The cut length will be marked with a steel measuring tape, as shown in the BBS.
• The bar will be cut with a shear line cutting machine.
Page 9 of 18
Project : MISK Precinct 4 School Campus Phase 1
• For straight bars, after cutting the required numbers, it will be bundled and tagged with bar
mark number and stack for delivery to site.
• For stirrups and cranked bars, the cut bars will be taken to the bending machine and bend as per
dimensions in the BBS. During bending process re-check randomly with a template for
dimensions.
• Upon completing the required numbers, bundle and tag the bars with bar mark number and
stack for delivery to site
Page 10 of 18
Project : MISK Precinct 4 School Campus Phase 1
• Steel around MEP openings and sleeves shall be provided as per approved shop drawings.
• Necessary dowel bars shall be provided wherever necessary as per approved shop drawings.
• Proper anchorage of bars for raft, beam, slab shall be provided as per approved shop drawings
and specifications.
• All reinforcement must be cleared to ensure that it is free from all oil, dust and deleterious
materials.
• After the completion of installation of steel reinforcement and MEP inserts ITR shall be raised
for CONSULTANT inspection and approval prior to concrete
• When all the activities are completed, the area will be cleaned thoroughly. Once the cleaning is
done and approved, a "Request for Inspection" will be raised for acceptance.

Page 16 of 18
Project : MISK Precinct 4 School Campus Phase 1
Kin \l 2057 ]. The PME updated a range of standards in 2012/2013 which have been adopted within the
Kingdom.
In 2012, PME had updated the GER with new standards for air, water, groundwater, noise, chemicals
management and waste management (Ministerial decision No. 8/1/7908, dated 18/4/1433 H, March 11,
2012). Some of these are as below
SAB shall ensure that their equipment and activities are in full legal compliance with the limits set out in
the standards. Further refer to SAB HSE Plan
The safe storage of hazardous chemicals is an essential part of an environmental, health, and safety
program. Chemical storage facilities must meet certain minimum standards to satisfy diverse regulations,
store must observe several requirements that incorporate safe storage:
Keeping an up-to-date chemical inventory
Proper chemical labelling
segregating incompatible chemical
Providing separate storage
Sheltered storage to avoid direct sunlight
Area should be free of any ignition sources
Provide suitable Fire Extinguisher
Should provide appropriate warning signs.
No smoking or naked flames near the fuel.
Do not inhale vapor.
Read material safety data sheet for the fuel.
