CODES AND STANDARDS


I. OBJECTIVES

TO IDENTIFY THE REQUIREMENTS /


ACTIVITIES NEEDED FOR INSPECTION

TO BE KNOWLEDGABLE IN
TOLERANCES / ACCEPTANCE
CRITERIA USED IN CHB LAYING AND
PLASTERING INSPECTION
II. COMMON TOOLS USED IN INSPECTION
• STEEL TAPE (METRO)
• LEVEL
• SQUARE (ISKWALA)
• STRAIGHTEDGE (ALUMINUM BARA)
• PLUMB BOB (HULOG)
• NYLON STRING (TANSI)
• NOTEBOOK AND PENCIL
CHB LAYING INSPECTION
CONCRETE HOLLOW BLOCK
(CHB)
The widely used masonry materials for all types of construction walls, partitions, fences, etc.
Concrete hollow blocks has three cells and two one-half cells at both ends having a total of
four.

Common sizes:
4” x 8” x 16”
6” x 8” x 16”
CONCRETE HOLLOW BLOCK
(CHB)
LOAD-BEARING BLOCKS – thickness ranges from 150mm – 200mm and
used to carry load aside from its own weight. The minimum net area
compressive strength required for all three weight classifications is 1900 psi.
(ASTM C90 – Standard Specification for Load-Bearing Concrete Masonry
Units)

NON-LOAD-BEARING BLOCKS – thickness ranges from 75mm – 100mm


and intended for walls, partitions, or dividers carrying its own weight. The
minimum requirements for net area compressive strength are at an average of
600 psi. (ASTM C129 – Standard Specification for Non-Load-Bearing
Concrete Masonry Units)

 CHECK DEPTH OF DRILLED HOLES FOR VERTICAL DOWEL BARS


DRILLED DOWELS – should be drilled to a depth of 100mm and extend 400mm to match
vertical bars. Apply epoxy on dowels, then, splice to vertical bars and wrap with
felt paper. Tie wire should be loose to allow movement of reinforcement bars.

 CHECK DOWEL BARS INSTALLED WITH EPOXY

 CHECK SPACING OF VERTICAL BARS
 Vertical bar spacing - 400 mm interval or every CHB
 CHECK LENGTH OF REBAR LAP SPLICING
 Lap splicing is 30 x bar Ø or 300 mm length.
 CHECK REBAR SPLICINGS ARE TIGHTLY TIED
CHB LAYING CHECKLISTS
CHB INSTALLATION

 CHECK CHB FORMATION IF CORRECT


 CHECK THAT MORTAR FILLED ALL HOLES
 CHECK UNIFORM MORTAR THICKNESS
 Target thickness is 10mm, maximum 20mm.
 CHECK PLUMBNESS OF CHB WALLS
 CHECK LEVELNESS OF CHB WALLS

CHB LAYING CHECKLISTS
CHB INSTALLATION

 CHECK BLOCKOUTS FOR LINTEL BEAMS


 CHECK REQUIRED VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL WALL GAPS
 CHECK COMPRESSIBLE FILLER IN PLACE
 CHECK THAT ALL HOLES & CHB GAPS ARE PROPERLY FILLED WITH
MORTAR
 Wall Gaps – provide 12 mm thick gap at column, 25 mm thick gap at beam and
slab. Gaps should be filled with compressible filler and backer rod.
 REQUIRE CHB CUTTING DONE BY GRINDER
CHB LAYING CHECKLISTS
PRIOR ENCLOSURE / LAST 2 LAYERS

 CHECK REBAR DOWEL SPLICING WRAPPED WITH FELT PAPER /


NEWSPAPER
 CHECK REBAR SPLICING ARE LOOSELY TIED
 ENSURE ALL PIPES AND DUCTS INSIDE PIPE / MECHANICAL CHASES ARE
COMPLETED AND TESTED
INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS
CHB cutting – Avoid excessive breaking of CHB. Use grinder in cutting CHB to minimize
wastage.

Stiffener column, beams – provide for walls more than 3 meters in length and 3 meters in
height.

Lintel beams– on top of door and window openings. Provide at least 200 mm block-out both
sides of CHB for beam anchorage.

• Mortar proportion is 1:3 (1 part cement to 3 parts sand)


• For walls aligned to columns and corewalls, adjust CHB layout by 20mm. The 20mm offset
is allowance for plastering since columns are straight-to-finish.

PLASTERING INSPECTION
PLASTERING
PLASTER – A cementitious or combination of cementitious materials and aggregate that,
when mixed with water, forms a plastic mass that sets and hardens when applied to a surface.

• Scratch Coat – In three-coat plaster, the first coat, which is then scratched to provide a bond for
second or brown coat. (Rebokada)
• Brown Coat – In three-coat plaster, the brown coat is the second coat. (Pasintada)
PLASTERING
• Finish Coat – The final coat of plaster, which provides the decorative surface. (Palitada)

 REQUIRE THAT NEWLY PLASTERED WALLS ARE MOIST CURED FOR 7 DAYS (HOT
WEATHER)
 ENSURE THAT NEWLY PLASTERED WALLS WERE NOT SUBJECTED TO EXCESSIVE
VIBRATION, GRINDING OR CHIPPING
 ENSURE THAT NEWLY PLASTERED WALLS ARE FULLY CURED PRIOR TO PAINT
APPLICATION
REMINDERS
1) Standard Mix (1:3) or in reference to designers Specifications.
2) Using of plastering compound, wire mesh and expandable lath hybrid is optional.
3) Avoid a direct rays of sun for 2 consecutive days, this will cause dehydration – main cause of
alligatoring & hairline cracks
4) Mortar blasting that serve as base coat will help to accelerate plastering works.
5) Never to apply cement powder to accelerate work.
6) Repair any unexpected cracks in accordance to approved or standard technical procedures.
REMINDERS
For walls to receive paint
• Surface should be smooth finished, uniform in texture, and no visible cracks/kapaks due to poor adhesion.

• All corners should be square, and all lines are straight.

• Openings are leveled and sufficient inside clear dimensions.

• Finish and measure so gap at any point between surface and a 3m long straightedge, resting on 2 high
spots and placed anywhere on the surface, does not exceed 3mm
