Method for locating the coupler bar at ends of girder are carry out following
steps:
-
Installation rebar No. 09-D22-100
-
Installation 2 bar No. A*-D16, as described in figure below.
- Mash the position of coupler on rebar No. A*-D16
-
Fix the coupler bar on the rebar No. A*-D16 as approved working drawing.

Rebar including embedded rebar for diaphragm shall be installed in
accordance with approved working drawing.
•
Concrete blocks with steel wire or plastic spacer shall be installed at bottom
and side of rebar in order to keep the appropriate concrete covering.
•
•
Splicing length and location shall be in accordance with working drawing.
Rebar shall be tied at intersections of rebar to prevent dislocation during
casting.
•
Installed rebar shall be free from rust, dirt, oil or other material that might
reduce the bond.
•
Temporary embedded material such as thread bar for support of decks slabs
form work shall be installed at proper location.
•
Rebar cage after installed on the frame shall be set into casting bed by gantry
crane 80 tons.

•
A truss beam shall be used for hanging and lifting rebar cage. Truss beam
shall be dismantled and removed to out of rebar cage by gantry crane for
installation remaining bar.
•
After setting, reinforcement bars, concrete cover shall be adjusted to ensure
correctly position, spacing, and shall be inspected ,approved by the Engineer
•
The reinforcement bars during the pre-assembly period and waiting time after
setting into the casting bed shall be controlled in dry condition by cover vinyl
sheet to prevent rust and corrosion.
•
Inspection and approval of rebar cage by the Engineer shall be carried out
prior to setting of inner forms.
•
With exterior girders, after installing steel cage into casting bed, we carry out to
locate PVC holes by ruler, installing PCV D170 pipes in the positions which
had been located by the steel wires to create waiting holes for PVC tubes.
d) Installation PC strand:
•
High tension steel strand shall be low relaxation after stranding and shall
conform to requirements of ASTM 416 Grade 1860.
•
All the strands shall be cut with enough length. PVC pipes with outer diameter
22mm and inner diameter 18mm and adhesive tapes shall be installed at end
of strands for de-bonding.
Page 20
Method Statement for Production of Super-T Girder
•
Each tendon shall be passed through by handwork when processing it we
must notice position of each tendon at ends girder must be same.
•
The strands are inserted through holes of end forms and tensioning beam,
make sure the strands are straight set form this end to the other, the strands
shall not be twisted or stuck.
•
When tensioning the strands shall be lengthened, therefore to make sure debonding length of the strands complied with design, ends of PVC pipes shall
be lengthened to inner face of tensioning beams so that PVC pipes shall not
be moved when the strands are being tension.
•
Preparation of tensioning:
- Before carry out the tensioning work, having to check whether the forms and
casting bed have the defects or not, in case of defects have no repair.
-
Checking the test result of the strands and the certificate of anchor wedge.
-
The combination of jack and gauge shall be calibrated once every six
months or otherwise instructed by the Engineer.
- Stressing on all strands shall be maintained between anchorages until the
concrete has reached the compressive strength required at time transfer of
stress to concrete, it is the minimum 85% of design concrete strength.
Page 21
Method Statement for Production of Super-T Girder
- In any case the jacking stress shall not exceed 75% of specified minimum
ultimate tensile strength of the pre-stressing steel.
-
Determine coefficient of friction of jack and anchor wedge (separate
determination should be done for every jack).
-
Strands shall be stressed uniformly and be kept in the dry condition, free
form rust, dirt, oil, mud…
-
The anchor wedge shall be free dirty, sand and oil period to installation into
the strands.
•
Order of tensioning of strands
-
Stressing shall be accomplished by single strand stressing. The amount of
stress to be given each strand shall be as shown in the calculation which the
contractor proposed and the Engineer approved.
- Tensioning of strands from centre to outside and symmetrically about centre

•
Tension force of one strand without friction of jack and working anchor slipping.
Tensioning the tendons to check straightness between the tendons with force is
0.1 Pk, marking on ends of strands to measure elongation.
•
Tensioning with each force level 0.2; 0.4; 0.6; 0.8; 1 Pk.
•
Calculating elongation through interpolate method taking into wedges slipping at
both of ends
•
Comparing actual elongation and design elongation.
e) Installing Inner Formwork:
•
Only installing inner formwork after finishing pre-stressing all strands.
•
Before installing, inner form shall be treated by form – release – oil. Form
release oil which the contractor uses is Sika Separol and It was approved by
consultant

•
Inner form shall be set up with support frame besides casting bed, then shall
be lifted by gantry crane and shall be installed inside casting bed.
•
Checking the position and shape of inner forms.
•
In process installing inner form by gantry crane, we combine installing PVC
tube in girder web, using tie steel to hold PCV tube on positions which are
marked.
