(2) Locating existing drains and services.

Locate the positions and levels of the existing drains and services indicated on
drawings. Seek instructions on the method for dealing with those, which are likely
to be affected.

(3) Locating cables, pipes and services.

Mark location of all underground cables and pipes with signboards, indicating
their type eg. Water, gas, electricity, telephone, TV cable and etc. Check on their
depth with the relevant parties. Where any overhear cables exist, install restricts
headroom indicators.

(4) Site Clearance.

The clearance at site shall include surface vegetation clearance, stripping,
stockpiling of topsoil and disposal of rubbish and spoil.

(5) Surface vegetation clearance.

Cut and clear away long grass, weed branches and etc. Grub up stumps and major
root runs with unduly disturbing topsoil.

(6) Stripping and stockpiling of topsoil.

 Strip topsoil to a depth of not exceeding 150mm as directed. Keep stockpiles
separate from other materials.

(7) Disposal of rubbish and spoil.

Tip rubbish and spoil only on tips controlled and recognized by the Local
authority and that comply strictly with any regulation governing the controlled
tipping of refuse.

(8) Lacating site burning areas.

Where permitted, burning unwanted timber and combustible materials on site. Locate
fore where it is safe, and shall not cause damage or spread to trees or shrubs.

(9) Protection and prevention.

Before excavation commences, check that the following items have been securely
protected.

(10) Trees and plants to be retained.

(11) Drains.
Protect from damage. Keep drain clear of debris at all times to prevent clog.

(12) Benchmarks.
Report any benchmarks and other established survey found on areas to be cleared.
Do not remove or destroy unless instructed otherwise.

(13) Temporary water discharge.

Provide temporary gradients, water courses, ditches, drains, water pumps or other
means for the rapid disposal of water flowing on the area of work during
excavation and filling.

(14) Arrange suitable plant, machinery and equipment to be used for the work.

WORKS METHODOLOGY
 (1) Excavation.

Step 1
Excavate to required profile and levels using suitable machine as required by the
contractual Specifications and Drawings. Load soft soil, loose rocks and other
unsuitable materials onto dumping truck.

Step 2
Strip and heap up topsoil to required depth.

Step 3
Make good of all formation surfaces damage by weather conditions or construction
traffic.

Step 4
Obtain approval of level and condition of formation by conducting joint inspection
where required.

Step 5
Maintain dry working conditions. Where water stagnant occurs, use water pump to
de-water areas.

PETRODEC Sdn Bhd METHOD STATEMENT OF WORK

DISPOSAL OF CLEARING MATERIAL, PEAT AND UNSUITABLE MATERIAL

Step 1
Haul unsuitable materials to designated disposal area as directed.

Step 2
Remove existing stockpile earthfill to designated dump site area.

Note 1
Keep the edges of excavation clear to prevent undue pressure on the excavation sides.
 Place soil raised from the excavation away from the edges to avoid overloading the
sides of the excavation and to prevent loose materials falling back in. Provide barriers
to prevent vehicles and their loads endangering the edges of excavation.

FILING AND COMPACTING

Step 1
Deposit filling material in layers to begin with install Geotextile PET 100/50.
Extend and spread layer in full width by using equialent machine for this operation.
Compact layer by compactor.

Step 2
Fills earthfill stockpile afterwards. Extend and spread layer in full width by using
bulldozer/back pusher or equivalent machine. Compact layer by compactor.

Step 3
Supply and install of Geogard EPDM liner.

Step 4
Install non-woven geotextile TS 40 at interface of excavated slope and EPDM liner.

Step 5
Fills earthfill material, extend and spread layer in full width by using equivalent
machine and compact layer by compactor.

Step 6
Supply, lay and compact road-base of approved imported crushed aggregate thickness
of 300mm

Step 7
Lay, compact stockpile road-base of approved crushed aggregate thickness of 300mm

Step 8
Supply, lay and compacted asphaltic concrete binder course (ACB 28) to the compacted
thickness of 75mm

Step 9
 Supply and install overhead mild steel round hollow section road gantry complete with
all necessary accessories.

Note 2
when moisture content is high, treatment of material is required to bring down the
natural moisture content.

TREATMENT OF MATERIAL

Step 1
Break up materials, loosen and expose material for drying. Leave material to dry up in
the sun.

Step 2
In event of rain, keep motor grader and compactor on alert to regrade, compact and
seal off the exposed surfaces.

Step 3
In area where suitable fill material has higher natural moisture content, sheep-foot
rollers are used to initially compact the material. This will result better exposure and
proper earation of soil.
