1. Introduction

This method statement provides information concerning the plant, equipment, manpower and
method of construction to ensure compliance with contract requirements, drawings, technical
specification and quality control.

2. Purpose / Scope of Work

The purpose of this method statement is to describe the measures and ways of
proper installation of interlock or paving block within our project. The work shall be carried
out as per the project specification and approved drawing.

3. Work Sequences
Both specialist and general workers of Perkasa Jauhari Sdn Bhd experienced in this type of work
will execute the works. The interlocking block installation shall be carried out progressively after
the infrastructure works were complete to ensure that the construction works can be complete as
per schedule.

4. Method Statement
4.1 Preparation
Before interlock work starts, make sure that sub-grade is compacted when the area is
above natural ground.
The sub-base shall be compacted with vibratory roller, size of roller shall be suitable for
the area where it could maneuver and can move back and forth.
Once compacted and met the specification requirement for compaction and approved by
Engineer, base course shall then be placed above compacted sub-base but make
sure thickness of the bases are as per approved drawing.
In the areas where there are kerb stone, the blinding shall be constructed first to serve as
the base accordingly to the drawing.
The importance of pre-installation of kerb stone is to prevent the migration or dis-
alignment of interlock or block, and it will serve as reference line or level.
After compaction of base-course, the black sand shall be laid on it of 50 mm thick. There
are cases that the bedding is mixed with cement to adhere cohesiveness but it will be as
per specification requirements.
