Method Statement For Footing Concrete Pouring

Method Statement for Footing Concrete Pouring
When we talk about foundations, there are various types that we

can use depending on the structural design. The types of
foundations are: Isolated footing, Combined Footing, Mat
Foundations, Strap Foundations, Bored Pile, Pile Drive etc.
In our project we do have usually Isolated footing foundations.

When I was in my previous company we had Mat Foundation
which I’m going to write a method statement later. So I’m going
to share to you the Method Statement or Procedure on how we’ll
going to pour concrete on footing foundation.
Here is the Method Statement for Footing Concrete Pouring
1. Title
Method Statement for Footing Concrete Pouring
2. Scope
The purpose of this Method Statement is to describe the

measures and ways of completing concrete pour work for
footings on this project. The works shall be carried out in
compliance with the drawings and project specification.
3. Work Procedure
1. Reinforcement
o It is intended to cut and bend rebar on site as per the

bar bending schedules.
o Some footings are composed of top and bottom
reinforcement, the bottom bars shall be supported with
concrete block or spacer of correct thickness.
o Inspection Request ( IR ) would be submitted for steel

reinforcement for checking and approval of the Engineer
prior to concrete casting.
2. Casting
o Make sure that the area within the shutter to be poured

with concrete is cleaned. Remove all rubbish, dirt, and
any other deleterious material via air compressor.
o Inspection Request can be submitted to the Engineer
or Consultant for approval of fixed steel reinforcement
and installed forms, if casting shall not take place on the
same day.
o Readymade concrete shall be provided from batching
plant approved by the Engineer. The rate of concrete
supply shall be 30 to 50 Cubic Meter per hour.
o The required number of concrete pumps will be

available on site; extra pump will be on standby ready for
any incident circumstances.
o Concrete vibrators shall be ready to use at time of

receiving concrete. Number of vibrators shall be
depending on concreted area to improve well compaction
for concrete pump.
o Computerized delivery ticket shall be checked for

conformity as per the approved design mix.
o Slump and temperature shall be carried out from each

concrete truck mixer.
o Slump shall not more than 150mm and not less than
100mm as per Engineersinstruction and approval.
Temperature of fresh concrete shall not more than 30
deg. Celsius as per BS Standard.
o All data required for daily concrete schedule sheet will
be recorded in the daily concrete pour card.
o Concrete at truck mixer shall not exceed more than 90

minutes from leaving batching plant.
o On acceptance, mix shall be directly unloaded in the

concrete pumps. Care shall be taken to make sure that
concrete mix is not dropping from more than a height of
2 meter.
o Concrete when introduced to the footing at first level

of 400mm shall then be vibrated, the same shall be done
for the succeeding layer of concrete until footing top
level is reached.
o When concrete reach proposed level; hand trowelling
should carry out to get a smooth surface according to
the top footing level.
o When the concrete is cured it shall then be applied

with water proofing system in accordance to
the specification.
3. For approval: Inspection request would be submitted to the

Engineer or Consultant for the concrete pouring approval.
4. Safety
1. All works shall comply with safety procedure

or instruction set out in project safety plan and Municipality
rules and regulations.
2. Basic PPE to worn by all staff and laborers.
3. Trained operator and banks man will be engaged to
control or operate heavy equipmentmachine.
5. Equipment and Tools
1. Concrete pump
2. Truck Mixer
3. Boom loader
4. Bobcat
5. Concrete Vibrators
6. Wheel borrow
7. Surveying instrument
8. Metal tape
9. Slump cone
10. Slump tray
11. Trowel
12. Cubes
13. Shovel
6. Materials and Reference

1. C40/20 Concrete Grade with 70-80% GGBS
2. Deformed Bars: 20mm dia., 16mm dia., 10mm dia.
The material mentioned above are as per our

project specification, please read your project specs before
writing method statement.
