Temporary works Designer :- The companies appointed (RMD, SGB & ALUMA) to
be responsible for the Temporary Works Design Function.
Procedures
General
The Temporary Works may be removed or left in place after the completion of the
permanent works but in the latter case would not necessarily contribute to the
strength of the Permanent Works.
In general, a contract will not require a TWC if excavations are no deeper than 1.2m
and no temporary works, other than normal access scaffolding above ground, are
required.
The Project Director will consider the need for a TWC, and if necessary, will consult
with the Engineering Manager regarding the competence of the person to be
appointed.
The Project Director will be responsible for confirming verbally or in writing the
appointment of a TWC with copies or information being sent to the Senior Site
Representative, Safety Advisor, QA/QC etc.
Where the TWC is absent from site for a significant period the Project Director will
ensure that alternative arrangements are made for checking of the erection of
temporary works by appointing a substitute.
Where necessary the Senior Site Representative will consult with the Engineering
Manager regarding the competence of the person to be appointed. The appointment
will be in the form of a memo/Email and acceptance received.
Register
The Senior Site Representative, or his nominee, will determine and list the
construction activities, which will require a Temporary Works Design. Further
activities may be added to the list as the contract progresses.
The TWC will prepare a Register for each of the Temporary Works Schemes and
will consider (by reference to the Contract Programme) the dates required for each of
the following:
Page 67
QA / QC Program World One Project
b) Completion of Design
h) Implementation
i) Use
j) Dismantling
The TWC will update the register in conjunction with the document control
department and the Engineering manager will be kept informed.
The design function and third party design checks will be carried out by suitably
qualified personel as approved by the contracts manager.
Design Brief
The TWC shall agree with the Senior Site Representative as to who will be
responsible for preparing the design brief for each Scheme. When preparing the
design brief the appointed person shall consider:
Specification (Employer/Others)
Contract Drawings
Page 68
QA / QC Program World One Project
Function
Preferred Methods
Preferred Materials
Re-use of materials/scheme
Tolerance
Programme
A standard solution may be the preferred method, in this case see section 7.8.
The design brief/Requirements will be prepared and will be submitted, together with
relevant drawings, sketches etc, to the TWC/ Engineering Manager to be passed on
to supplier/sub-contractor appointed to carry out the design or nominated designer or
Design checkers (see 7.3.3 and 7.51)
The information supplied in the design brief will include a description of the
preferred method(s) to be employed and sketches if complex schemes are required
by the site teams.
The Design Brief will be submitted to the TWC/ Engineering Manager and passed on
to the supplier/subcontractor, as appropriate, a minimum of two weeks prior to the
earliest date recorded on the front page the design brief. This period may require to
be increased for complex schemes.

The Engineering Manager will appoint the Designers & checkers to carryout designs
and third party checks on each temporary works elements. Every third party design
check will be approved by the Resident consulting Engineer.
When the design is carried out by the Designer will consider, amongst others, the:
Design brief
Loadings
Design Life
Statutory Requirements
Ground Conditions
Environmental Effects
The Designer will prepare calculations based upon the relevant British Standards,
Codes
of Practice and recognized principles. Sufficient drawings and sketches together with

QA / QC Program World One Project
Where the design has been prepared on site or by a third party or it is a prerequisite
of the design brief, the TWC/ Engineering Manager will be informed when the
design is completed in order that arrangements may be made by him for checking
and approval prior to implementation of the design. During the checking of designs
the checker will consider the ground, environmental effects, loading, overall stability
and design in both concept and detail
The checker will only refer to the designers calculations when in disagreement with
the elements of the prepared scheme. Any disagreement must be resolved between
the designer and checker before the issue of a check certificate/Report.
Implementation
Permit to Load
The TWS will identify, to the foreman or similar site supervisor, the specific hold
points noted by the designer and any others he considers necessary to allow for the
inspection and confirm that the temporary works are erected in accordance with the
approved scheme. The TWC/TWS will issue a permit to load, upon completion of
the
The permit to load will confirm that the Temporary Works have been erected in
accordance with the relevant drawings, sketches, method statements etc.
The temporary works shall be inspected by the TWC/TWS, and a new permit to load
issued, before any new loading condition is instigated.
Permit to strike
Page 71
QA / QC Program World One Project
When 100% of the cubes crushed achieve 75% of the required 28 day compressive
strength, request to strike (RTS) the false work will be initiated by the Project
manager.
Compressive test values and approved layout of back propping shall be attached
along with the RTS. Completed RTS should be submitted to LODAH group for
review and approval.
Upon receiving the approval for RTS from LODHA group the contractor Project
Manager will issue instruction to strike the false work in coordination with the
TWC/TWS.
Documentation
Standard solution
The code of practice for falsework (BS 5975) permits the use of standard solutions.
A range of standard solutions is provided in section 8 of this code of practice.
Suppliers may also produce standard solutions to suit their products. These
standard
Page 72
QA / QC Program World One Project
When selecting a standard solution those responsible should ensure they understand
and take account of the limitations of these designs so that they are only used in
appropriate circumstances.
2. Be aware of the Temporary Works Procedure and will co-ordinate the brief,
design and checking functions, inspection and certification of the safe construction,
maintenance, use
and dismantling of the Temporary Works on site. In the absence of the TWS be
responsible for checking and certification, in stages where applicable or stated by the
designer, of the safe construction, maintenance, use and dismantling of the
Temporary Works on site
3. When requested by the Senior Site Representative determine the requirement for
Temporary Works Schemes and, as appropriate, prepare a programme for design,
approval, materials, plant and work on site.
4. Liaise with the Engineering manager, the Senior Site Representative and the site
team to ensure that the design is submitted for approval (where required by the
contract) and is reviewed by the designer if the circumstances change.

6. Liaise with the, Designer, Senior Site Representative, other site staff and
subcontractors/ suppliers to ensure that the scheme is constructed in accordance with
the design and on programme.
7. Liaise with the Designer to ensure any modifications made to the design in the
course of erections are approved before proceeding.
8. Ensure that the designer and checker are informed of any variations to the
conditions originally envisaged and confirmation/amendment is received before
proceeding, eg ground, water, environmental or use.
9. Maintain a Temporary Works file on site, and ensure that it is available for
inspection by the Senior Site Representative and Engineering Manager.
10. *Issue, only when satisfied that it is safe to do so, a Temporary Works Permit to
Load/strike, indicating the date of inspection and the conditions certified i.e.
loading/striking may commence, excavation may proceed (specify limits if required).
11. *Provide copies of the Permit to Load/Strike to the relevant personnel e.g.
Section Foreman, who will sign to acknowledge receipt, the signed copy is to be kept
with the Temporary Works file.*These responsibilities may also be carried out by
the Temporary Works Supervisor.
