Method Statement for Car Parking Epoxy Flooring


- PURPOSE AND SCOPE.

The Scope of this Method Statement for Epoxy Coating works is to outline and describe in detail the procedure, material, and labor required to undertake the work or activity in a safe and controlled manner. This will comprise the Epoxy Coating works and as specified in the Project Specification.   

This activity should be performed with strict compliance and implementation of Safety Requirements & procedures, standard practices, and project specifications to complete the work. 


- DELIVERY, STORAGE & QUALITY CONTROL.

Store at room temperature in sealed drums. The ideal storage temperature is

below  35˚C. 

Protect from moisture and moisture vapor.   

Close all drums after use.  

The whole application procedure shall be under continuous surveillance and

auditing from the Supervision Consultant quality control team to ensure strict 

adherence to the Method Statement. 

The applied coatings should be thoroughly inspected and the W.I.R for each area 

should be duly signed by relevant parties. 

Deliver materials to the job site in the manufacturer's original, material wrapped 

with the manufacturer's name. 

Comply with the manufacturer's written instructions for proper material storage.  


- PRODUCTS.


- FLOORING MATERIALS: 


Solvent-free epoxy resin floor coating.  


Aggregate for anti-slip application. 


Putty. 


Line Marker.


Primer. 


Topcoat. 


- TOOLS AND EQUIPMENTS.


Vacuum shot blasting machine. 


Grinding machine. 


Short/medium-haired roller. 


Mixing vessel. 


Hand tools, masking tape etc. 


PPE.


- ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY.    


- General Safety Conditions.


Safety goggles, impermeable protective gloves and overall should always be worn


when handling this product. 


Contaminated clothing should be removed immediately to prevent further skin


contact. 


All the workers will have safety indications to increase awareness of health and


safety. 


In case of spillage of Solvent-free epoxy resin floor coating the same will be wiped


off by suitable absorber or spill kit. 


Spillage will never be washed by water and disposed of to water body. 


In case of fire use of water jet will be avoided so far possible. 


Empty containers, used spilled kit, used brushes and other used staff will be

 

disposed of as per UAE disposal law & regulations.  

 

EXECUTION. 


SEQUENCE OF APPLICATION CAR PARKING AREAS (NON-EXPOSED). 


Surface Preparation & Minor Repairs. 


Application of Primer coat. 


Broadcast of anti-slip aggregates. 


Application of Topcoat of Finish. 


Application of two coats of Line Marking. 


SEQUENCE OF APPLICATION BOH AREAS. 


Surface Preparation & Minor Repairs. 


Application of First coat of Solvent-free epoxy resin floor coating.


Application of Second coat of Solvent-free epoxy resin floor coating.


- BASE.


Reinforced concrete slab sound & dry with properly finished surface joints &


edges. 


Concrete compressive strength should be greater than 25N/mm2. 


Application Temperature of 10-35°C and concrete moisture content less than 75%


relative humidity. 


- SURFACE PREPARATION. 


Prior to application, Mock-up needs to be performed and approved by 


the Engineer.  


Prior to starting preparation, close the area to be prepared to all traffic and other

trades.   


Run Shot Blasting or light grinding machine onto the concrete surface to achieve


medium sandpaper roughness and open concrete surface pores. 


If any part of the floor is contaminated by oil, grease or fuel, the contamination


should be removed before other forms of preparation are undertaken.  


Minor surface defects exposed during surface preparation such as minor cracks or


pinholes shall be filled with epoxy mortar putty as per manufacturer’s


recommendation.  


When floor preparation is complete, vacuum the area to remove all dust and


debris. 


Place 50mm wide masking tape along free edges.


- MIXING: 


The base and hardener components should be thoroughly stirred before the two


are mixed. 


The entire contents of the hardener container should be poured into the base


container and the two materials mixed thoroughly for 3 to 5 minutes, till reaching


homogenous mix. 


Add the color pot and mix. 


- APPLICATION OF COATING TO CAR PARKING AREAS. 


The material should be applied onto the prepared substrate as soon as mixing is


complete. 


Once the surface is prepared apply the Primer coat using a roller or brush


spreading evenly and slowly, at a coverage rate of 0.65kg/m2 


as per manufacturer’s recommendations. 


Whilst the first coat is still wet broadcast anti slip aggregates as per manufacturers


recommendations. When the Primer coat has reached initial cure overnight, the


excess aggregates should be vacuum cleaned from the surface. 


Apply the Topcoat finish using a roller or brush. The Topcoat must be applied at a


coverage rate as per manufacturer’s recommendations and allow to cure. 


The topcoat should be allowed to cure for a minimum of 24 hours from application


prior to allowing foot traffic and 72 hours prior Allowing vehicular traffic.  


Apply two coats of Line Marker as per manufacturer’s recommendations with a


minimum overcoating time of 1 hour between coats and a coverage rate of 0.03

 

kg/m2.
