7. Temporary Works

7.4 Identify appropriate design controls and minimum design documentation based on the temporary works risk category

RISK – Temporary Works not adequately designed

The Temporary Works Process and Competency Requirements Table must be used to confirm what controls, including level of design certification and design review, are required for temporary works.  

 

 

 

Once you have identified whether the temporary work is considered a high, medium, low or very low, and the TWC has approved this risk categorisation, follow the controls outlined in the table below for minimum documentation and output, design and Site Validation requirements.

 

For example, design certification and documentation requirements are outlined in the table to the right for different levels of risk.
