PRE-INSTALLATION PREPARATION
DRAWINGS PREPARATION & PRODUCTION PLANNING
PRELIMINARY CLIENT BRIEFING
INSTALLATION METHOD & REQUIREMENT BRIEFING
Upon receiving confirmation of order from the client, GreenEdge shall request a set of architectural and structural drawings for the purpose of producing GreenEdge Installation Shop Drawings and Sizing Tabulation.
Prior to the first delivery, GreenEdge technical personnel shall conduct a preliminary briefing to client and/or his project consultant, main contractor, sub-contractor (whichever is relevant) and wall installer (if applicable). This is to identify the key person at site; to determine the job scope of all related parties; to ensure the requirement of installation works are in line with our Installation Method Statement and Shop Drawings; to highlight the DOs & DON'Ts, etc.
Before the installation, the GreenEdge technical personnel shall coach the installer to ensure they fully understand and adhere to the correct method of installation and tools to be used. Coaching on planting of T10 starter bars before slab casting will also be conducted. During the coaching session any doubt raised by the installers will be clarified.
SITE DELIVERY COORDINATION
PANELS PACKING & DELIVERY
UNLOADING THE PANELS
GreenEdge shall inform the client site representative the anticipated date of arrival of the GreenEdge panels in advance. It is for the client's earlier arrangement for a crane or similar to unload the panels from the trailer to the designated location.
GreenEdge panels shall be packed and strapped in pallets. GreenEdge pallets are then to be loaded onto the trailer by using crane or forklift. The pallets can be stacked for a maximum of two layers, one above the other.
Upon arrival at site the GreenEdge panels are unloaded from the trailer using a crane or a forklift. Unloading platform & pallet jack / trolley are required for high-rise construction.
RECEIVING THE PANELS AT SITE
PANELS STORAGE AT SITE
ADHESIVE MORTAR STORAGE AT SITE
The receiver of the GreenEdge panels must check and verify the quantity of panels delivered against the Delivery Order. Panels that found cracked or damaged, the receiver must clearly record the relevant information on the Delivery Order, in the presence of the trailer driver. The trailer driver is required to sign on the Delivery Order as acknowledgement of the defects. The Delivery Order is required to be stamped and signed by the client's representative as proof of the delivery.
The GreenEdge panels must be stored on a flat ground and must not be stacked for more than two layers. For high-rise buildings, the panels should be stored near to the crane hoisting area to avoid double handling / transferring.
GreenEdge Adhesive Mortar must be stored in a dry area and under a shelter or covered with water proof material. The shelf life of GreenEdge Adhesive Mortar is six months.

INSTALLATION PROCESS
The installation of the GreenEdge partition wall element panels is up to six times faster than the use of traditional construction methods,
such as brickwork or laying block walls. When installing the panels, it is important to adhere to the local regulations and instructions,
and also to take the local special requirements and conditions into consideration.
“The installation of Acotec panels will result in a good outcome when our general instructions are followed"
SITE PREPARATION
To identify the areas to install the GreenEdge panels.
To clean and mark the area by referring to the architectural drawing.
DISTRIBUTION OF PANELS
Distribute GreenEdge panels to the areas where installation needs to take place by using pallet jack or trolley.
LIFTING & ERECTING OF PANELS
Unwrap the GreenEdge panels, lift them up, erect and arrange the panels accordingly.
CUTTING OF PANELS
It is recommended to use an appropriate tools i.e. concrete cutter for any cutting on GreenEdge panels.
ADHESIVE MORTAR PREPARATION
To prepare GreenEdge Adhesive Mortar with a mixing ratio of 4 : 1. That is 4 parts of GreenEdge Adhesive Mortar to 1 part of water. Mix with an electrical mixer to achieve a homogeneous mix.
The pot life of GreenEdge Adhesive Mortar mixture is 30 minutes. Do not re-mix the dried mixture.
POSITIONING THE PANELS
To position the panels at the designated area and align it vertically and horizontally by using a crow bar and a spirit level.
INSTALLING THE PANELS
Always start the panels installation at a column or at an area where the panels will be intersected to form an “L” or “T” joint. Apply adequate GreenEdge Adhesive Mortar at all the structural members that will be connected to GreenEdge panel, such as column, slab & beam, next erect the panel and start to install. The marked/ painted side of the panel must always be installed at the bottom of the wall.
FIRMING THE PANEL POSITION
Hold the panel firmly by means of thrusting wooden wedges between the wall panel and the beam/slab soffit. These wooden wedges must be removed before finishing the installation works.
Ensure a gap of 20 - 50mm between the GreenEdge panel and the beam/slab soffit for GreenEdge Adhesive Mortar application.
SUBSEQUENT PANELS INSTALLATION
To install the subsequent panel, apply GreenEdge Adhesive Mortar to the groove of the previous panel and then interlock the tongue of the second panel into the groove of the previous panel.
INSTALLATION OF LINTEL
For area where GreenEdge panel is used as lintel, prior to the installation, create an L-shape rebate of 100mm width at the adjacent panels at both side as supports for the lintel to sit on it. At place where the lintel is to be connected to a R.C. element, install an T10 steel bar as a support for the lintel. Both sides of lintel must be anchored with dowel bars to connect to the adjacent members.
GREENEDGE PANELS FOR WINDOW & OTHER OPENINGS
Below the window, each panel must be anchored using U-bar (T10 Steel Bar) and a topping has to be casted over it in such a way that the two ends of the capping slots about 10mm into the sides of the panels by the side of the window.
In case of the gap between panels or panel and column which is lesser than 200mm, fill the gap with cast in-situ concrete.
GREENEDGE STEEL BRACKET INSTALLATION
For the panel which is adjacent to R.C. column / wall, 2 nos. of 150mm T10 steel dowel bars (side) are required.
For external wall, GreenEdge steel bracket (Top) & 150mm T10 steel anti-slip bar (Bottom) is required for every panel. For internal wall, GreenEdge steel bracket (Top) & 150mm T10 steel anti-slip bar (Bottom) is required for every alternate panel.
ANTI-SLIP BARS & DOWEL BARS INSTALLATION
To implant anti-slip bars and dowel bars, first drill a depth 50mm hole on the R.C member. Next, fill up the hole with grout and then insert the T10 steel bars.
SEALING OF STARTER BARS & DOWEL BARS
After the panels are installed, patch up all the openings for starter bars and dowel bars with cement mortar.
MECHANICAL & ELECTRICAL (M&E) OPENINGS
Proceed with the M&E works. All the openings for M&E must be created with electric cutter. Hacking with hammer and/or other inappropriate tools is prohibited.
PLUMBING & ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
GreenEdge wall with hollows of 44mm diameter in the 75mm wall and 69mm diameter in the 100mm wall to allow the passage of water pipes, electrical wiring, HVAC and dydraulic installations without making holes/chases.

Make sure your text is clear and easy to read. Tip from the pros: add an image or video of the product to give your clients a way of visualizing what you are selling.
FIBER MESH INSTALLATION
Once the GreenEdge Adhesive Mortar is flushed at the gaps between panels, apply a layer of fiber mesh (100mm width) at all joints. Use GreenEdge Adhesive Mortar as the adhesive for the fiber mesh application.
