5.0 CONSTRUCTION PREPARATION
• Obtain relevant approved construction drawings & material from Architect/Client .
• Make sure that all required M&E concealed services and openings such as electrical
conduits, window and door frames have been installed. Protection of window and door
frames to be done and relevant contractors shall not be removed.
• All opening, holes, cracks must be properly filled by related contractor before
commencement of work.
• The surface of RC wall will be checked using 1"x 2" aluminium bar and angle rule to
determine if any additional patching or hacking require achieving the squareness and
verticality.
• The surface of slab soffit and R.C wall including inner angles must be sufficiently flat,
taking into consideration the permissible minimum and maximum thickness of the skim
coat. The slab soffit and wall which exceed the permissible limit shall be hacked and
make good.
• Slab soffit must be free from timber/formwork, dust oil, paint, grease and other foreign
materials which may affect the site construction.
• Make good completed R.C structure in order to receive skim coat.
• Clean the working area for working space and accessibility.
• Fiber mesh will be installed before applying skim coat for joint area between ceiling and
wall or RC wall and brick wall to avoid cracks.

6.0 OPERATION TECHNOLOGY
6.1 Mixing
Mixing of ready mix skim coat shall be strictly in accordance with the procedures set down
by the manufacturer. Ensure each mix is of similar uniform consistency as previous mixes.
Mixing will be by hand or using power mixer.
6.2 Application Skimcoat
i. Skim Coating Works For Column/Wall Podium & Internal Wall Tower
1. Provide necessary warning barriers surrounding the work place for safety and security
purposes. Prepare material, water & electric supply and plan for works.
2. Double check the structural/wall surface evenness & flatness, thickness... If surface still
have defect should rectify first.

4. Install fiber mesh between RC structural & brick wall, around gap door/window & cut
M&E conduit line.
Sample Fiber Mesh Installation
5. For base skim coat, add material to the recommended amount of clean water by weight
or by volume. See table for recommended mixing ratio. Manual mixing or use an
electrical mixer to stir for about 2 minutes to obtain a homogeneous paste of suitable
consistency. The wet lump free mix is then ready for use immediately.
Sample Base Coat Application
6. Apply the properly mixed material following normal plastering trade and craftsman
practices. Recommended overall thickness (thin layer) 2mm – 3mm all in accordance
with stated specification.

7. A smooth finish can be achieved via the use of a smooth metal trowel. Spread the wet
material evenly and adjust thickness with smooth strokes of trowel over the surface.
8. For finish skim coat, add materials to the recommended amount of clean water by weight
or by volume. See table for recommended mixing ratio. Manual mixing or Use an
electrical mixer to stir for about 2 minutes to obtain a homogeneous paste of suitable
consistency. The wet lump free mix is then ready for use immediately.
Sample Final Coat Application
9. Finish coat is applied onto the base coat using a hand trowel up to a maximum overall
thickness total of 5mm – 6mm. When the applied material has stiffened sufficiently
re-trowel with clean dry trowel for a final smooth finish.

ii. Skim Coating Works Internal Ceiling & Concrete Soffit & Beam.
1. For under skim coat, add materials to the recommended amount of clean water by weight
or by volume. See table for recommended mixing ratio. Manual mixing or Use an
electrical mixer to stir for about 2 minutes to obtain a homogeneous paste of suitable
consistency. The wet lump free mix is then ready for use immediately.
2. For base coat, apply the properly mixed materials following normal plastering trade and
craftsman practices. Recommended max overall thickness (thin layer) 1mm – 2mm all in
accordance with stated specification.
3. A smooth finish can be achieved via the use of a smooth metal trowel. Spread the wet
material evenly and adjust thickness with smooth strokes of trowel over the surface.
4. For finish skim coat, add approved materials to the recommended amount of clean water
by weight or by volume. See table for recommended mixing ratio. Use an electrical mixer
to stir for about 2 minutes to obtain a homogeneous paste of suitable consistency. The
wet lump free mix is then ready for use immediately.
5. Finish coat is applied onto the under coat using a hand trowel up to a maximum overall
thickness total of 4mm – 5mm. When the applied material has stiffened sufficiently
re-trowel with clean dry trowel for a final smooth finish.

iii. Skim Coating Works For External Wall (If Any).
Apply ready mixed external skim render of overall 9-10 mm thick all in accordance with
manufacturer's specification to sides of shear wall, low wall, non load bearing wall.
External render also apply 2 layer or 1 layer according instruction from manufacture’s.
Use polyform to make rough sponge for external surface to anti crack & prevent water.

Desired finish as per specification: Steel trowel smooth to egg shell finish, without any
powderiness , trowel marks & physical undulating surface to the touch.
8 SAFETY AND HEALTH
• Continually use of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment).
• Establish a clear access, egress way to allow for the safe movement of materials and
equipment around the site.
• Material delivery and storage areas should have enough space and lighting to allow
for the safe movement of materials.
• Developing and maintaining safe work practices reduces the risk of injury.
• Do not manually lift and handling equipment when and as required.
• Always use the suitable tools /equipment for the job.
• Check cable and connection for any wear/tear of insulation and loose connection.
