The second document in the series A Code of Practice for the Safe Erection and Dismantling of Falsework and Formwork is now available.
The CONSTRUCT Safety Method Statement entitled Building a Concrete Frame is available to members. This is in the form of a series of Checklists.
A further CONSTRUCT document is being developed by the our Health and Safety Committee entitled Lifting Operations Plan. This will be available also as a CD |
