g) Tensioning machine
h) Grouting machine
i) Other applicable equipment

III. Method Construction

a) Erection of PC girder

 Preparation

PC girder stock yard will be cleared from any foreign materials that may obstruct
for the unloading of the girder. The area will be more in flat terrain wooden blocks
and braces will be provided and ready as support for pre-stressed girders when laid
to prevent the pre-stressed girder directly touching the ground transportation plan
will be submitted for approval of the consultant. The pre-stressed concrete girder
will be transported with proper manner, which does not incur excessive stress on
the concrete.
1) Setting out for installation of PC girders will be conformed to be contact drawing.
2) Installation of bridge bearing will be installed on proper position as followed
the contact drawing
3) Installation of PC girders erection of pc girder will be carried out with launching
girder sketch of launching girder is attach for reference.
Procedure of erection is follows.
- Assemble erection girder at leveled yard adjusent to A2 abutment
- Place erection girder on to span between abutment A2 and A1
- Lay rails to transfer pc girder
- Assemble to set up pc girder relocation units
- Slide pc girder from pc girder fabrication yard to erection girder
 - Move pc girder to correct position with relocation units
- Launch erection girder to next span between P1 and P2
- Extend rail and erection span
- Move erection unit
Method statement of erection of pc girder will be submitted separately.

b) Cross beam

 Description

1) After completed installation of 6 girders, connect other by concrete cross beam

2) Scaffolding in to the main girder and hanging out of scaffolding

- Removing bottom form work when concrete strength becomes high
or as requirement of the engineer
- Smoothing all concrete surface with mortar after removing form work

d) End diaphragm

 Procedure

1) Preparation work

- Preparation scaffolding support around cross head

- Setting steel anchor bar and pouring mortar for anchor halls with position
as shown on the construction drawing
- Setting bottom form work by support and hung by rebar Ø25mm
- Joining rebar Ø25mm between pc girder
- Arranging bar
- Setting steel bar Ø25mm
- Setting side form work and bracing by separator bolt or C bolt.
 2) Concrete work
