BASIC ERECTION EXECUTION SEQUENCE
Each of our buildings are customer specific, different in specifications; shape, size and weight etc, hence
erection sequence for each buildings differ. Here we have illustrated erection sequence for a simple box
building with clear span up to 30 M & height within 10 M. For different building systems the fundament
erection procedure is followed with detailed sequencing system referring to particular building size &
weight.
GROUND RULE: Erection always starts on a braced bay.

BOLT TIGHTENING & INSPECTION PROCEDURE
TIGHTENING:
Ensure all connection bolts have been installed as per issued for construction drawings; verify the
sized mentioned in the erection drawings.
All the bolts should be brought to Snug tight position before tensioning. (Position the bolts to snug
tight by manual operation using an ordinary spud wrench. A full effort of an erector using an ordinary
spud wrench would bring the bolt to a snug tight position. No wrench extension or long wrenches
should be used to bring the bolt to a snug tight position in order to avoid tensioning. A 300 mm long
spud wrench is normally used)
Once the snug tight position is achieved, the outer face of the nut shall be match-marked with the help
of a permanent marker pen.
After marking further tightening / tensioning shall be proceed until the desire nut rotation meets
requirement shown in Table 8.2 (Tightening shall be carried out Manually by extending the spud
wrench length or increasing the number of erectors to two; electric impact wrench can also be used,
but ensure to avoid over tensioning)
INSPECTION:
Inspection of bolts shall be visual
check of match marks before and
after bolt tightening. The bolted
connection shall be accepted when
1 1 match marks have reached the
3 3 required rotation as stated in table 8.2
[ Position of nuts before & after turn off the nut method ]
The QC Inspector shall keep records of inspection of connections, 10% of bolts shall be inspected at random
connections, out of which 90% must pass for successful inspection.

z Nut rotation is relative to bolt regardless of the element ( nut or bolt) being turned. For required nut rotations of 1/2 turn and less,
the tolerance is plus or minus 30 degrees, for required nut rotations of 2/3 turn and more, the tolerance is plus or minus 45 degrees.
z Applicable only to joints in which all material within the grip is steel.
z When the bolt length exceeds 12 db , the required nut rotation shall be determined by actual testing in a suitable tension calibrator

TOUCH UP PAINT
Touch up paint during & after erection is always a part of erection method statement. As scratched developed during
erection / mechanical damages must be addressed immediately by proper surface preparation & application of
proper coating to avoid corrosion.
GROUND RULE: it’s wiser to address the touch up paint at ground than at height.

Mobilize the manpower and the water tank, ensure above requirements fully complied and checked
prior to any water test.
Start the leak test on the first bay at roof ridge (ridge panel) and let the water free flow through the roof
panel, skylights, roof penetration, curved panel or to the gutter.
The ground crew will check underneath the roof, any water coming it will be marked on the ground
floor. The applications will do until last bay of the building.
Any leaks must be repaired immediately and make the re-test until all marked points is cleared. Upon
completion, the KEY PLAN will be marked / signed by all parties.
