Precast Erection Drawings

Drawings for the erection of the panels should include details on how the panels are to be placed and secured into position. Information to be shown on these drawings include:

• project location
• date and issue number of the drawing
• position of brace connection points on the panel and the ground
• brace specifications and/or required capacities
• levelling pad details
• relative locations of panels
• details for brace footings including dimensions, location, anchor type, and concrete strength at time of erection, or where no footing provided - minimum strength or permanent structure were used to prop the works and
• details on knee and lateral bracing (if applicable).

Determine precast erection procedure/sequence with engineer prior to commencement.

It must be clear as to when temporary supports and temporary bracing/propping can be removed.

Incorporate this sequence/document into the ITP, SWMS and Pre-cast Concrete Installation checklist (high risk activity preplanning checklist).

Verify structural connections through welding tests or similar testing as a part of this process

Engineering certification must be provided with the erection drawings for the design of the temporary supports/props prior to installation.
