1.1 Description:
This plan describes the management of temporary works from design conception through design and development, approval,
construction, use and finally removal. This plan will be used to ensure that temporary works are delivered to site on schedule
for use by the construction team in line with SAPAC, NEOM and statutory requirements.
1.2 Scope:
The scope of temporary works in a construction project is extensive and critical to the successful execution of the project.
Temporary works encompass a wide range of elements and activities that support the construction process. Here's an overview
of the scope of temporary works:
Support Structures:
Temporary works often include structures like scaffolding, formwork, falsework, and shoring systems. These are essential for
supporting construction activities, ensuring worker safety, and creating the necessary framework for building elements.
Temporary Services:
This category includes temporary utilities like electrical, plumbing, required for construction activities. These services provide the
necessary infrastructure for workers during construction.
Demolition Works:
When existing structures need to be removed, temporary structures and methods are employed to safely demolish and clear the
area.
Safety Measures:
Temporary safety measures, such as barriers, fencing, guardrails, and safety netting, are put in place to protect workers and the
public from potential hazards.
Temporary Access:
Equipment like scaffolding is used for workers to access and work at heights, ensuring their safety and facilitating construction at
elevated levels.
2 Definitions/Roles
Temporary Works (TW) - Temporary Works is any temporary arrangement to construct the permanent works or used to support
the permanent works during its construction and/or until such time that it becomes self-supporting.
Temporary Works can be either industry standard designs that cover a range of limitations, or a bespoke design to cover a site-
specific situation, however in both cases design calculations are required to be produced to demonstrate the suitability of the
chosen option in line with BS 5975.
This definition applies to all temporary works on projects, including but not limited to:
Designated Individual / Temporary Works Designer (TWD) - is a qualified, experienced and competent person,
generally a Civil or Structural Engineer responsible for preparing the engineering design for the Temporary Work installations in
accordance with project requirements.
Temporary Works Checking Engineer (TWCH) - An engineer not involved with the original design and who is
commissioned to check and accept the design or construction. Should be from SAPAC Technical Department.
Temporary Works Coordinator (TWC) - is a qualified, experienced and competent person who co-ordinates the Design,
Erection/installation, Loading, Maintenance and Dismantling of the temporary works. He assesses whether minor elements of
temporary works are to be designed and certified in accordance with the procedure and keep records of all such assessments.
The TWC must be able to commission an independent check on the Temporary Works before it is subject to load/strike but
should not be the person directly responsible for design, erection, maintenance or dismantling of the Temporary Works.
Temporary Works Supervisor (TWS) - is a competent person experienced in the erection of Temporary Works, responsible
to assist the Temporary Works Coordinator in the supervision of the Temporary Works installation, inspection and dismantling
at site. He could be a Site Engineer or q u a l i f i e d Trades F o r e m a n ( SAPAC or subcontractor) appointed b y t h e
Construction / Project Manager and he is responsible to initiate the temporary work permit and reporting to the TWC. Also, his
role covers the full supervision to the whole progress of construction and dismantling of temporary work.
Risk Assessment - Formal safety exercise to manage the hazards associated with a particular activity or group of activities.
The risk assessment is normally chaired by the safety manager and attended by the relevant subcontractor and construction
staff.
Temporary Works Register -The TWC will maintain an up-to-date register of all the items of Temporary Works on the
site with each item classified as defined on Temporary Works Schedule. The purpose of the register is to ensure that each item
of Temporary Works whether originating within SAPAC or from Sub-contractor, is formally identified and checked in accordance
with requirements.
3 Procedure
Appointment of Temporary Works Personnel
