hi guys and welcome back to SITENG in today's video guys i'm gonna show you the decking here
and how to deck for the floor we're gonna have a look at the drawings as well uh i'll tell you all
you need to know to do it correctly and uh you can see here other trades already in this is a level
one and we're gonna have a look at decking for level four on one of the blocks some people ask me
about how to do the surveys how to set few things i decided i'm gonna do four or five videos maybe
uh gonna be like a floor turnover when we're gonna have a look the decking then we're gonna go
on top of the deck when it's ready to mark the things and then later after obviously prefer
inspection we're gonna jump on the slab to do the level survey and mark the columns and then
again they can and the same story really so that few videos gonna show you what to do so whatever
stage you're gonna start you're gonna be able just to jump in and start working so let's go guys
so guys as always please don't forget to subscribe to my channel follow my linkedIn page as well and
uh i open a coffee page so if you want to buy me a coffee if you want to support me this way
do so and thank you very much for this and let's go so guys that's the deck in here we're using a
titan each back hv i'm going to show you this later actually this is very interesting it's a
very good system here uh we got the hill titan as well you see the primaries and the secondary beams
they call it the hatricks as well and the lumors at the end of this video guys uh i'm gonna show
you all the drawings we're gonna have a look at uh tech and drawing as well they can drawn that's
the part of temporary wars this is very important we cannot change anything here guys in terms of
being a site engineer here your main thing is just to make sure all the steps going to be in
position and obviously next video when the decking is open we're going to jump on top and we're going
to start marking and i'm going to show you then what's what what's important what you need to know
so uh you can see this line here actually that's what i was doing myself always i'll try to mark
even the roughly like line where the step is so the chip you're going to know they're going to
ask you and they're going to create obviously the step going to be a little bit further down
when the deck is and then on top you're going to mark the proper stack that's the thing that's the
important thing you can start when the when the slab is pulled actually you can start marking this
with the columns as well with the steps in the socket we're going to obviously have a look at
the ga drawing uh to get the levels uh and to get all information about the steps guys but obviously
the most important thing as well that's the level so your job gonna be to set the laser for the guys
and uh make sure the level is set correctly and this is dependent actually on the thickness of
the decking you are using so in this case guys our beams here the main beams are 160 high
so obviously once you got your soffit level you need to you need to take it into account
so they're going to be 160 beam plus the fly on top so you can see the fly here actually but all
these panels as well they're going to be like a 20 mil here one you're going to get your soffit level
you have to go with the laser below it uh i think i'm showing that on the one of my
other video as well but we're going to have a look at the drawings as well and i'm gonna tell
you what to do and obviously guys what i'm doing always and i encourage you to do that
you can leave the soffit five minute higher this is very good in any adjustment later it's really
easier to get it lower than to lift lifting when everything especially still is on top
so just make it five mil higher everything is clipped on like here you see
all these checks are done and obviously here with the client the permit to load has to be issued
after the decking is completed and obviously before poor happens but as i said guys this
is more advanced level i would say as a setting outside engineer you're going to be mostly dealing
with the levels water steps and you're going to be waiting uh till the decade is open really on top
as you're going to be the first and you want to be the first one to be on the deck when it's open to
mark everything but that's going to be not going to be in the next video in this video though we're
going to have a look at the ge drawing and the decking drawing as well just to show you what
information we need uh first here in terms of levels in terms of step we can mark this for
ourselves to make sure everything is correct and then obviously once decant is open we need to make
sure we get all the information about openings but that's going to be as i said next video
so yeah guys let's have a look at these drawings and obviously if you got any questions don't
forget uh to ask me to leave the comments and i reply as soon as possible so any questions
guys let me know just quick look at our beams here guys these are short ones but whatever it is guys
whatever that can you using actually if it's gonna be traditional gonna be perry docker so whatever
you're using you have to always measure it just measure the height make sure that you know the
exact buildup for your decking so you can set the level correctly so as i said once you got
the soffit you need to make sure what level you're going to set for the guys here so they can set the
level correctly once you jump on top that's the level you're looking for for the soffit
so that'll be the most important thing guys know your build up guys make sure as you can see even
here we got different types of beams so you need to make sure the guys got that information just to
show you guys here we got the precast core here precast walls stand and that's the deck in here
that's that they can hear you see there's no steps here everything is flat so it's quite the right
the level level and the level that's the most important thing guys so just have a look here
you see we got actually this is quite interesting because uh we got the balconies here so there is a
good temporary worse design as you can see but the balconies are not loaded there is a gap there in
between the balcony and the bottom of this primary beam so all this is actually designed not to load
the balcony so the idea is very good and as you can see our last doing the good job here as well
they setting all this this later we're going to have a look at the drawings guys this is
later going to be anchored here as well in the slab so that's the interesting bit in terms of
that deck in here just maybe guys just to quickly show you you see the decking below it's ready
the steel is already there so uh that's how we're gonna be looking and uh engineer already probably
marked the slab edges but as i said next video you're gonna cover that but you can see the deck
in there deck in there also guys we're doing that in there it's another block there uh that's the
roof slab now uh it's one level as well so it's not that interesting as this one in terms of
temporary works in terms of marking out for the decking for the next level but you guys please uh
if you got any questions please don't hesitate uh leave the comment below and i'm going to answer as
soon as possible so guys as a summary here on site know where your steps are going and know
your soffit level obviously and know your build up guys uh to set the correct level for the guys
uh especially as you can see we got the different types of beam here and i believe
the deck is actually flat here but that's the side i showed you before not to load the balcony here
so this is a big difference and obviously the level going to be different for these guys
but the also feed level stays in this case the same so uh again guys soffit
build up and the steps so guys so let's have a look at the drawings and i'm gonna start from
g8 drawing here and this is actually level six uh and uh as the deck and i showed you was for level
six really i was thinking about level four but this is more interesting as there are steps here
and uh it's better to have a look at this guys so uh you can see here the most important information
for us is actually the slab is 300 thick and the level of the slab and here as you can see you see
that dashed line that dash line shows the step in the soffit of the slab guys and this line here
is a step in the slab in top of the slab so uh we can have a look at the sections i think i'm going
to show you sections in the next video anyway but that's the level here you see the balconies
here and we got a different level here and obviously the soffit going to be different as well
and the the line here maybe i just show you here so you're going to see that line here the dash
line going all the way that shows the step in the soffit so before guy is going to start doing the
decking a lot of the stuff that will be roughly going to be marking somewhere here at that the
step going to be on top so the guy is going to know where the step is and then later when you
jump in on top we're going to mark the actual step and then they're going to put the ply
and then make the step in the soffit ready for the for the for the fixers and then later for the poor
i just to make it as per drawing so guys as i said that's the level here so our soffit going to be
24 860 and as i said whatever build up you got whatever decking you're going to be using
then you need to take it off when you set the lasers for the guys as guys with the staff they're
going to be coming to the bottom of the beam or to the bottom of the panel whatever you tell them
to do and whatever level you're going to set but this is very important guys this is most important
thing here uh to keep the level right and then obviously where is the step here at
that level going to be different it's 24 835 so guys 24 835 here uh 25 160. so this is
165 to get it to 25 plus 160 so this is three to five difference in the step here and that's
gonna be our difference in the soffit as well so we can mark it actually on the software so
that'll be guys the most important information why we're doing this and obviously i'm starting from
the deck in but the thing is you will have a look at this uh before we start doing the columns but
this is assuming we're starting from the decking we're coming on side this is the deck in here and
as i told you uh i'm going to do a few videos when we're going to show the deck in once we jump in on
the deck once the slab is poured and then the columns all the stuff so this is all repetitive
and then you're going to be able just to come on site and then you're going to know what to
do exactly in any particular step actually when you jump on site so you guys i would say that
would be all in taking on ga the most important thing for now is the levels make sure the steps
are correctly marked and the levels are correctly set for the guys and let them do the decking and
then hopefully before they're going to let you on the deck and you got the time for yourself to make
everything ready to me to have a look what's there prepare yourself have a look at all the sections
all the drawings all the information as uh there will be some alphas and different castings coming
into the slabs so you need to have it in your head really and get the drawings ready before you jump
on top so guys the next drawing i'm going to show you is actually the titan drawing here it's the
decking drawing uh it's typically provided and as i said this is temporary work stuff so guys uh you
you cannot really change anything here you need to stick to the drawing and obviously once as i said
you're going to be sighting and you're setting out the engineer you're not going to be dealing
much with it but it's very good to have a look at it to read through it and actually to know
what's happening as sooner or later guys you're probably going to be dealing with it
and you can always spot something guys maybe if some lads go do do something wrong do any
mistakes anything is missing you can spot it you can help them we all working as a team guys
so we try help each other and uh yeah you can see here is a section here as well is showing that the
balcony here so you can see double plywood pucker so everything is explained here uh it's a balcony
uh section aa so same story here section a a and uh 22 millimeters deflection
so as you can see here uh that's the balcony i was i was showing you before and you see the 20 mil 22
millimeter deflection this is very important information actually for us engineers as well
as this might mean that after we're going to pour we're going to lose 22 mil deflection for that
beam here that means we probably have to set this jack so set all the balcony a little bit higher
and you sometimes do it obviously always when you do the cantilever balconies you're giving them the
camber so so so setting them a little bit higher in this case it might be even 20 25 mil higher
as this beam gonna deflect and then obviously balcony deflect as well so that gonna keep the
balcony level really once you allow that extra 20 25 mil dependent obviously on the thickness
on the cantilever and on the length of the balcony and all that stuff this has to be agreed obviously
with your senior engineer and with technical team as well but that's the thing you you might have
a look at that's why i said even these drawings even if you don't deal with it guys on site just
have a look at it read through it as you may spot something interesting like this and just
just uh tell it to your supervisor or tell it to the to your technical team so guys all this here
all clips this is all details here every single detail is on this drawing everything is explained
you got even the i think the wind here uh there is a note if the wind exceeds 35 35 miles per hour
uh the end user must ensure that an extra measure survey so obviously we're going all through all
the nodes that's why it's very important you read through it and obviously the joint have
to be issued for construction guys you know this from my construction drawing series and this is
construction issue here so uh yeah guys that'll be all that that's that's how the drawing looks
you can see all the beams here uh the main beams the primary beams and then this is actually the
panels here the beams here are actually all the same in terms of height uh they just uh
different in the length really and obviously once we got this balcony build up this is uh this is a
this is a primary this is a hatred beam a two to five beam uh and the loomers here as well i think
it's the 150 is actually says here uh it doesn't say it says 225 4.8 yeah so it's twin 150 so the
loomers are 150s and everything is explained on these drawings it's good to have a look guys uh
good to really even discuss with the with the foreign man dealing with the decking
if he needs anything if he understands everything as obviously they're going to say they're going to
know everything but it's good to have a little chat just to make sure for yourself really
so yeah guys that would be all actually in terms of drawing we got we got the ga drawing we got
the levels we know the soffit level uh we got this drawing as well what i actually urge you to
do guys whatever you're going to be on site and actually i i tell this my engineers i forgot to
tell them really just this g drawing here guys it's always best to print extra copy for your
foreign man if he doesn't have it i i imagine all good foreign should have this drawing they know
the size of the columns they know where the steps are they should understand it but just in case you
can always print the drawing just discuss quickly what's happening there it's going to be good for
you guys as i'm always saying information is the key so once even you discuss five minutes about it
you won't even think about it but the many mistakes can be avoided really once you have it as
discussions because then everyone knows what what they doing and this is very good really so guys
yeah that will be all we got the g levels we see the titan drawing what i what i'm gonna show you
i just downloaded the brochure here uh hv panels uh each bag but you can download yourself you can
find it online so it's not a big problem it's a very good system here guys uh it allows you early
strike really as there is a drop head in the legs so uh the panels can be taken while the slab is
still propped here so uh it's very similar to the sky deck here i got a skydeck here as well i think
i was using this i j readington use the paris kydex system so this is i would say very similar
really but the most important thing is guys you can strike it while the slap is still propped and
you need to you need to know this because trust me guys many guys they don't even know about
it and just strike it completely and then they propping the leg back which is wrong because once
you strike it the load of the slab gonna start acting so they're gonna start deflecting so if
you early strike you know if you take really that leg out completely and then you try to
back prop it again this is wrong guys so that's the whole point of using this system hv or skydeck
that the whole reason for it is that your leg is still there while you're taking the panels so the
the slab is actually propped all the time so uh so that's that's the proper way of doing
it so you can download this find this is very interesting things guys uh uh
showing you that the drop heads here uh and type the drop head by skydeck here by by perry and
i got that title as well it's it's different uh different producer obviously different but it's
hv they call it hv dropper this is the titan is back is back titan and uh it's really interesting
guys you can find it online just download it go through it uh if you got any questions
obviously you can ask me here or you see you got the sizes you got the sizes actually here
of the beams so as i said before uh this is one see we got a 160 beams here so that's good to go
through it you can see here you got the dimensions now so you don't even have to measure it on site
obviously i always try to use my tape measure and just double check to triple check to make sure we
we're doing right so that's another reason why it's worth really to go through the information
here through the brochures see how it works and you can see here uh yeah loading so this is even
explained here so you can really play and you can check the design really once you got this and you
know thickness of your slab and you you know the loadings acting on your temporary works so
you guys that will be all in today's video i hope you enjoy it if you got any questions just please
let me know and as always guys as i say don't forget to subscribe to my channel please follow my
linkedin page as well as they're going to be stuff coming there i want to focus a little bit more on
linkedin now and of course guys if you want to buy me a coffee there is a link somewhere there on top
uh you can do so and you can support my channel this way but thank you again for watching guys
and uh they're gonna be next video coming soon and we're gonna jump on the decking then later
slap us bills columns everything so yeah guys thank you again and see you next time
