3.0.1 Site Clearance
This process usually involves two stages:- Stage one : The removal of vegetation, plants,
Stumps, rubble, trash. : Also known as grubbing
- Stage two : The removal of the surface level soil : Top 300mm of the ground
It is done to ensure a conducive environment for the commencement of all construction work.

3.0.2 Setting Out Building Outline
The responsibility of a licensed land surveyor.
STEPS1. The first step is to establish a baseline to which all subsequent setting out will
be related.2. The next would be to mark out the main building points by using wooden
posts with nails driven through the center. 3. A cord would be tied from one post to the other forming the building line- This serves as a boundary on which the building should not exceed- This is an important stage of the construction process and such the setting out
lines would always be checked by second personnel using a site square. Baseline

Serves two purposes:i) Establish the excavation size, shape and orientation ii) Establish the width and position of the walls
STEPS1. Based on the setting out lines marked previously, profile boards are used to
indicate the position, width and depth of the proposed trench2. The width of trench is marked on the profile board by sawing cuts and painting
a band on it. 3. The size of the excavation work is marked on the ground with cement powder
Using the width markings on the profile board, a traveller is used to mark out the centre line of trench.An excavator then uses a trench width bucket to excavate the trench along this line

FOUNDATION4.1.1 SHALLOW FOUNDATION (Reference)
Spread footing A spread footing is an enlargement at the bottom of a column or bearing wall that spreads the applied structural loads over a sufficiently large soil area. Typically, each column and each bearing wall has its own spread footing, so each structure may include dozens of in individual footings.
● consists of a number of courses of bricks, the lowest being usually twice the thickness of wall above.
● The base width of the wall is increased by providing 5cm on either side of the wall. The depth of each course is usually 10 cm.
● In some cases, however, the bottom course is made 20cm deep. In the case of footing for store walls, the size of offset is slightly more than that of the brick wall footing.
● Cheapest type of foundations and is widely used for walls of common buildings.
Advantages of spread footing:● Low cost and ease of construction● Small or medium size structure with good soil condition● Lower risk of failure● Easier to build basement

4.1.2 SHALLOW FOUNDATION (On site)
Construction procedure
1. Backhoe is used to excavate spread footing, handwork is necessary to produce clean excavation. Recheck soil condition of the site.
2. Procedure of pouring the concrete directly against the soil is called neat footing.
3. To make sure the top of the footing is at the proper elevation, shallow wooden forms placed above excavation. Make a larger excavation and build a full-depth wooden form of the soil (formed footing)

Construction procedure
4. Place rebar spacer to secure the reinforcing steel or "rebar" in reinforced concrete structures as the rebar is assembled in place prior to the final concrete pour. The spacers are left in place for the pour to keep the reinforcing in place, and become a permanent part of the structure.
5. Reinforcing steel placed after excavation and placing the form. Threaded anchor bolts and steel brackets are embedded into the concrete if the footings have to support a wood or steel structure.
6. Short steel rebar (dowel) are placed such that they extend above the complete footing for concrete and masonry structure.Then, the concrete is placed.

4.2.1 DEEP FOUNDATION (reference)
Piling foundation
There are 2 types of piles:
1) Load bearing pile foundation- In end bearing piles, the bottom end of the pile rests on a layer of especially strong soil or rock.-The bottom end rests on the surface which is the intersection of a weak and strong layer.-The load therefore bypasses the weak layer and transferred to the strong layer.
2) Friction Pile- The pile transfers the load of the building to the soil by fiction across the full height of the pile.- The amount of load a pile can support is directly proportionate to its length.
Piling is a type of ground treatment which is driving a pile into the ground below ground level. Except sheet pile, other piles like concrete pile, timber pile, steel pile, bored pile are used to transfer the building load to the ground. It’s used to strengthen the soil so that the ground able to support the load of the building. While sheet pile is usually used to support lateral load and act as a supporting wall.
Construction method1. Driven piles- made from concrete, steel or timber.-piles are prefabricated- When these piles are driven into the granular soils, they displace the equal volume of soil. This helps in compaction of soil around the sides of piles and results in the densification of soil.- compact the soil adjacent to it is also called as compaction pile. This compaction of soil increases its bearing capacity.

Construction method
2. Cast-in-situ piles- concrete pile.- constructed by drilling holes in the ground to the required depth and then filling the hole with concrete.- small diameter compared to drilled piers.- straight bored piles or with one or more bulbs at intervals are casted- with one or more bulbs are called as under-reamed piles.
3. Driven and cast-in-situ piles.- have the advantages of both driven and cast-in-situ piles.- The construction process that show it is both drive and cast-in-situ:
Pile load test Load tests on piles are conducted on completion of 28 days after casting of piles. Two types of tests namely initial and routine tests, for each type of loading viz. vertical, horizontal (lateral) pull out, are performed on piles. It aim to ensure the safe load capacity of piles and to detect any unusual performance contrary to the findings of the Initial Test
Kentledge shall be suitably designed to get the desired reaction on the piles. Anchor piles (if required) shall be placed at a centre to centre distance of 3 times the pile diameter subject to a minimum distance of 2 M.

4.2.1 DEEP FOUNDATION (reference)
Reinforced concrete pile (used for the site)
● Precast, prestressed, cast in place, or of composite construction● Precast concrete piles made using ordinary reinforcement or
prestressed.● Ordinary reinforcement pile are designed to resist bending
stresses during picking up & transport to the site & bending moments from lateral loads and to provide sufficient resistance to vertical loads and any tension forces developed during driving.
● Prestressed piles are formed by tensioning high strength steel prestress cables, and casting the concrete about the cable. When the concrete hardens, the prestress cables are cut, with the tension force in the cables now producing compressive stress in the concrete pile. It is common to higher-strength concrete (35 to 55 MPa) in prestressed piles because of the large initial compressive stresses from prestressing. Prestressing the piles, tend to counteract any tension stresses during either handling or driving.
● Max length: 10 - 15 m for precast, 20 - 30 m for prestressed● Optimum length 10 - 12 m for precast. 18 - 25m prestressed● Loads for usual conditions 900kN for precast. 8500 kN for
prestressed● Optimum load range: 350 - 3500 kN
Advantages of reinforced concrete pile:
1. High load capacities, corrosion resistance can be attained, hard driving possible2. Cylinder piles in particular are suited for bending resistance.3. Cast in place concrete piles are formed by drilling a hole in the ground & filling it with concrete. The hole may be drilled or formed by driving a shell or casing into the ground.

4.2.2 DEEP FOUNDATION (site visit)
Construction procedure1. Excavation, The subsoil of the site are excavated to
reduce the level for construction of pile cap. The excavated materials are disposed off-site by the lorry.
2. The pile is tied on its lifting lug. Lift the pile and straighten it to ready for hammering.
3. The pile driven through the ground using drop hammer. The subsoil around the pile is displaced. The pile is driven to the grough until it couldn’t be driven into the soil any further.
4. Cutting off the pile. The concrete is crushed by the pneumatic hammer. The reinforcement in the pile is cut manually. The cutted pile is lift and disposed.

4.2.2 DEEP FOUNDATION (site visit)
Construction procedure
5. The end of the pile is not structurally connect to the footing which connect the column to the base. Therefore, pile cap constructed. The superstructure can start to build once pile cap constructed.
Pile cap construction
1. Pilings are first trimmed to ensure that the individual columns are all the same length and their tops are flush.
2. An area around the piling group is excavated to accommodate the timberwork that will form the boxing or mold for the concrete.
3. The reinforcement for the slap will typically be built in the form of a steel cage that is then inserted into the cast box and fasten to the piling group, typically with a timber frame or cross member.
4. The concrete can be poured into the mold and allowed to cure. Once the concrete has cured correctly, remove framework, leaving a slab of reinforced concrete joining the pilings. Now the superstructural work can be started.
A thick concrete mat that rests on concrete or timber piles that have been driven into soft or unstable ground in order to provide a suitable stable foundation.

There are numerous roof types and covering available. Shown and illustrated are the roof types:
Material used
● No tiles are used for the roof covering. Zinculum is used because of its durability and strength. It is also thermal efficent which is suitable for the warm local climate.
● Rockwool is layered because of its ability to provide thermal and sound protection for the roof. It’s also act as a fire barrier.
● Aluminum foil is then placed because it reflects thermal radiation very well and emits very little heat.
● Steel trusses and rafters act the base of the roof covering.
Roof installation
1. A support brace is installed on the top plate of the wall bracing.
2. A ridge beam is added to the support brace. Struts are then added to the ridge beam to create a higher end of the slope.
3. Rafters are added to the structure to allow roof covering to be placed on later. After that, the outrigger and purlin will be attached to the structure.
4. The trusses are then added to increase the strength of the mono-pitched roof.
