There will be one Project Management Team (PMT) to undertake the “Proposed Off-Site Parking”at Fort
Bonifacio Global City”. The PMT shall be headed by a Project-In-Charge (PIC) who shall be responsible for
the timely and safe execution of the project according to client’s specifications. The PIC will organize group
of experienced and qualified personnel to undertake the various civil works for the project.

Upon receipt of notice that we are awarded the contract, each Project Management Team shall be organized
immediately and prepare a detailed Project Operation Plan (POP) with careful review of the scope of works,
construction drawings and specifications of the project.

Simultaneously, PMT will also identify, reserve, rent or purchase the necessary tools and equipment needed
for the work. The line up of personnel can be referred to the manpower-loading schedule and, the equipment
line up from equipment loading schedule.

Safety

Safety shall be our primary concern in the execution of the works. A safety engineer will be mobilized to
ensure Safety Policies and Programs are implemented. The project’s Safety Programs shall be developed
tailored to client’s Safety Requirement and Policies. The safety engineer shall be primarily responsible in
ensuring all workers are properly oriented with the hazards of the work.

Workers will be required to have personal protective equipment such as safety helmets, safety shoes, and
safety goggles. Housekeeping will be strictly implemented to avoid accidents.

Quality Control and Assurance

PMT will mobilize site quality control engineer, who reports directly to the project manager, to ensure
quality of work, conformance with client’s specifications and for appropriate quality control
documentation. A Quality Control and Inspection Plan will be prepared for client’s approval. The “Quality
Control Plan” will define specific responsibilities in quality control and various test and inspection points.

Record of inspection both for materials, processes and tests are recorded in a Quality Control Inspection
Report (QCIR). For raw materials, usually a mill certificate, certificate of conformance and record of test
(by testing agency or in-house) are prepared, recorded and kept. These documents form part of quality
documents required for traceability.

For in-process and final inspection of activities like welding, record of tests like MT (Magnetic Test), PT
(Penetrant Test), UT (Ultrasonic Test) and RT (Radiographic Test) are prepared, recorded, approved and
conformed by client or his authorized representative.

These test documents are kept in file and available for reproduction.

CONSTRUCTION METHODOLOGY

Site Preparation

Layout and Staking

Immediately after mobilization, a joint survey with the Owner’s representative shall be undertaken to
set the construction and boundary limits of the project and locate benchmarks for horizontal and
vertical control. After the joint survey, survey group will proceed with the establishment of the
horizontal and vertical control points of the project. Survey works shall be done using theodolite and
automatic level. Control points shall be established on locations that will not be disturbed during
earthworks and construction.

Clearing and Grubbing

Generally, site clearing shall be done using bulldozers. A payloader and dump trucks shall be used to
haul grubbed waste and rubbish from the project site. Clearing works shall be done so that the area
where construction works shall be done shall be cleared of matted roots, trees, brush, snags,
vegetation, rubbish, spoils and other objectionable matters. Topsoil and all combustible materials
from clearing operation shall be disposed immediately to client’s designated disposal area.

Site Grading Work

After clearing and grubbing operations, site grading/stripping to remove topsoil shall proceed before
excavation starts. If and when necessary, level of cut shall be properly determined. Grading to finish
level shall be carefully studied and coordinated with the equipment operator to avoid rework,
especially on areas that require landscaping works.

Site grading works shall be done using graders. Loaders and dump trucks shall be used for disposal of
stripped soil to designated disposal area.

Drainage System

Construction Division Construction Method Statement for the Proposed Date : Sept .20, 2001
Offsite Parking Page : 4 of 6

The drainage system within the proposed parking area will be undertaken as long as the grading of areas
to required elevation as required have been completed. Excavation of trenches will generally be done
using backhoe /excavator to required depth as indicated on the construction drawings.

Laying of PVC pipes shall be done manually after the trenches have been backfilled with required
aggregates and compacted using tamping machine or vibratory plate compactor. Manner of jointing PVC
pipes shall be submitted to client for approval prior to the laying of pipes.

Backfilling of trenches shall be done immediately after pipes lengths have been laid. Joints of pipes shall
be left open for visual inspection during hydrotesting. Appropriate road signages shall be provided to
prevent accident.

Concrete Foundation for Parking Structure

Layout and Staking

Layout and staking gridlines for parking structure shall be undertaken immediately grading of the
area have been finished. Areas of excavation will be staked off on the ground using theodolite.

Excavation works for parking structure’s concrete foundation shall be undertaken using backhoe. This
Excavated materials shall be dumped immediately to dump trucks for immediate disposal to
designated location. Excavation shall be done according to the lines, grades and dimension shown on
plans.

During excavation safety barricades, signages and adequate lighting shall be provided to prevent any
accident.

Rebarworks

Rebar Fabrication

Rebar fabrication works, i.e. cutting and bending of rebars, shall be done on a fabrication shop
which shall be established on a designated location near the jobsite.

Fabrication of rebars shall be done following a rebar cutting schedule which shall be prepared by
field supervisors consistent with the Project’s Master Schedule. The rebar cutting schedule shall
be submitted to the rebar fabrication supervisor for him to prepare his own schedule of the rebar
fabrication works. He shall see to it that he has the adequate resources for the timely serving of
rebar requirements of the whole project.

Concreting Works

Ready-mix concrete for this project shall be procured from a local concrete supplier. Proximity to
Fort Bonifacio shall be our primary criteria in the selection of ready-mix supplier. Samples of
concrete mixes shall be taken randomly as specified in project specifications.

Concreting works shall be done after client’s approval of our “Pouring Request”. Interval of mixes
shall be planned and identified during concrete operations to avoid overmixture of concrete. Placing
of concrete shall be done monolithically. Careful planning shall be done so that no face of concrete
shall be left more than one hour before fresh concrete is placed against it.

Concrete will be deposited directly to the concrete forms using the concrete mixer’s chute. In case
where necessary additional chutes shall be fabricated. After deposition of concrete, it should be
consolidated properly by means of concrete vibrator. Concrete vibrators shall be at all times held
vertically during consolidation of concrete to avoid segregation of the aggregates. Concrete vibrator is
withdrawn from the concrete at a rate of 1in. per second to avoid displacement of the aggregates.

Roads and Pavings

Offsite Parking Page : 6 of 6

Preparation of subgrade

Preparation of the subgrade shall be started as soon as the concrete foundation and pedestal for
parking structure and the drainage line have been completed. Compaction shall be done using
vibratory road roller and/or vibrating plate compactor whichever is applicable. Compaction shall be
done until a uniform density of not less than 95 mass percent of moisture content is achieved or as
specified in the client’s specifications.

Subbase and base course

Aggregates of sub-base course may consist of hard, durable particles or fragments of crushed stone,
crushed slag, or crushed or natural gravel and filler of natural or crushed sand or other finely divided
mineral matter whichever is specified. The aggregate sub-base materials will be placed on uniform
layer, and shall be compacted thoroughly before laying the upper layers. Vibratory road roller shall
follow the progress of aggregate laying for layer-to-layer compaction. Rolling shall progress
gradually from the sides to the center, vice-versa and shall be done continuously until the whole
surface has been rolled. On edges of pedestal, compaction maybe done using vibrating plate
compactors.

In general, aggregate materials shall be laid on layers of 100-mm. minimum followed by vibratory
road roller compaction until the specified percentage of maximum density is achieved. In order to
achieve required compaction, the moisture content of materials shall be adjusted by watering or
sprinkling water.

Base course shall also be laid and compacted in the same manner as subbase aggregates, though
laying of these materials shall be done on layers of 50 mm. thick for each layer followed by vibratory
road roller compaction until the specified percentage of maximum density is achieved.

Asphalt Concrete Pavement

Asphalt concrete pavement shall be ordered from a local supplier near. Laying of asphalt concrete
pavement which is 50 mm thick shall be laid on a single layer only. This shall be deposited directly
on the compacted base course followed by screeding to the required grade and slope. Compaction
shall follow progressively as the asphalt concrete is screeded.
