Monks Recreational Play Area

Construction Method Statement

Access to the site will be from Crabtree Lane. We intend to use delivery vehicles which are suited to the site access constraints, such as using ridged 7.5 ton vehicles rather than an articulated lorry. The main access to the field will be between the brick pillars, where we will need to remove the small section of metal fencing. We propose to use the area adjacent to the play area to locate our compound. We will minimise the number of vehicles on site to ensure that the path remains open to allow public access. A section of the black fence line along Crabtree Lane, will need to be removed to allow access for deliveries, this will be reinstated as we found it, once the work is complete.

The projects manager will visit the sites during the installation phase and the Projects team holds a daily meeting to discuss each project. On completion of the installation, an independent inspection by an accredited RPII body will be undertaken as a prerequisite to your acceptance of the site. Health and Safety – Our Projects team is trained to and are operating in accordance with the 2015 CDMC Regulations. We will create a CDM Phase Plan and Risk Assessment and Method Statement (RAMS) which will be agreed prior to commencement on site All goods supplied or work carried out will conform to the relevant EN1176 and EN1177 standards where applicable, as detailed in your specification. We are registered under the SSIP approved CHAS scheme and are members of Construction line (No 72499) ▪ Proposals phasing and safe working zones during construction. We intend to use a local installation team to ensure the site is completed on time. Our team has many years of experience installing similar sites for eibe. Site Management - A site-based Foreman is responsible for the management and supervision of all on-site operations and personnel, overseen by eibe’s SMSTS qualified Projects manager supported by Office based staff and the Regional Play Consultant. Our site foreman is SSSTS qualified. All personnel will undergo a site induction prior to gaining access to the site. Security, Storage and Site Establishment - Heras fencing (double-locked) will be erected for the duration of works. All equipment will be stored within the site boundary. Smaller items and tools are stored in vehicles. Site Access and Deliveries - We plan for all equipment and goods being delivered on vehicles where it can be offloaded using suitable plant and transported to an appropriate location within the working site/compound area. Appropriate site rules will be adopted for the movement of equipment on and off Lorries, and the movement of equipment to and from the installation site location. We plan to undertake these activities during quiet periods of the day, wherever possible, using at least one banksman and appropriate signage erected. Signage - Required HSE signage will be used; - Health and Safety, Access, Speed Limits, Danger Construction Site, etc.

The site security etc are detailed below. These are our provisional plans and will be confirmed with you prior to commencement on site.
