METHOD STATEMENT
While starting of welding, gas cutting, grinding, gouging operations HOT WORK permit system
will be practiced.
All the gas cutting torches are installed with approved Flash back arrestors.
All the welders are with proper hand gloves, Apron, Face shield and other additional required
safety gears.
While working in confined space CONFINED SAPCE ENTRY PERMIT system will be practiced.
All the power tools are of certified and tagged properly.
All the power, welding cables are of certified and tagged properly.
For handling Plates special lifting tools like horizontal and vertical plate lifting tools are used.
Good housekeeping will be practices at all the time.
Fire extinguishers are kept near the work for any fire incidents.
Gas cylinders are stationed during work so that they maintain required distance from the heat
source.
Best engineering will be practiced to avoid accidents.

procedures).
• Inspection of welding.
• Erection of I-Beams on slab.
• Aligning & Leveling of I-Beams.
• Anchoring of I-Beams of to the concrete foundation.(Hold)
• Erection of Bottom base Plate on the I-Beams.
• Fit-up and Welding of Bottom base plate.
• Inspection of welding By Penetration, RT, and Vacuum test.
• Erection of Shell-5 plate on the bottom base plate and alignment with fit up
• Vertical welding of shell-5.
• Inspection of vertical & Horizontal by RT through 10% of the total length of the welding.
• Erection of shell-6 on the top of shell-5 and followed by alignment, fit up and welding of vertical
& horizontal welding.
• Inspection of vertical & Horizontal by RT through 10% of the total length of the welding and
