Document background
The Method Statement For Column Formwork is a critical document required for construction projects in the Philippines, particularly where structural concrete work is involved. It serves as a comprehensive guide that details the systematic approach to installing, maintaining, and removing column formwork while ensuring compliance with the National Building Code of the Philippines, DOLE Department Order No. 13, and other relevant local regulations. This document is typically required during the pre-construction phase and must be approved before work commencement. It includes specific methodologies, safety protocols, quality control measures, and risk assessments tailored to the Philippine construction environment and climate conditions. The method statement is essential for obtaining necessary permits and demonstrates compliance with both local authority requirements and international construction standards.
