The area of excavations will first be checked for live services using cat scanners and plans where possible. Any
existing services will be protected or moved as required. The holes are hand dug by two men using pick and
shovel; the excavations will be 1.2metres wide maximum by the appropriate depth for each property. To prevent
the potential for subsidence or collapse a distance of approx 1.2 metres is left in situ and another section of 1.2
metres dug out, the intermediate sections are not dug out until the concrete in the original excavations has been
set for 48 hours.
1. Care will be taken at all time when quick hitch is used to change over buckets, correct procedure will be followed
and a final push test will be carried out to ensure bucket is connected correctly

Excavations
Prior to commencement of work The method of support selected needs to take account of the work to be done and
allow for adequate working space. The options for the method of support may also be limited by ground conditions
or the presence of services crossing the trench line. Support will also be required when plant for excavating or
depositing backfill will cause a surcharge on the excavation side.
Whatever the support method selected, an essential part of the method statement is a defined safe method of
work. No person should ever enter an unsupported excavation to install or remove supports. The use of proprietary
support systems which can be installed safely from existing ground level may help in this situation. Smoke head will
be isollated during work time and isollation removed when works area left unattended.
Hand digging
All trench works within 1.5m of the Ouse house plnt room are to be hand dug to expose any existing drainage or
cables.
Do not store excavated spoil or other materials or park plant and vehicles close to sides of excavations. The extra
loading from spoil, vehicles etc can make thre sides of excavations more likely to collapse. Loose materilas may fall
from spoil heaps etc into the excavation. A scaffold board used as a toe board and fixed along the outside of the

Prevent people from falling by guarding excavations. Edges of more excavations more than 2m deep should be
protected with substantial barriers. Where necessary, use (painted or marked) baulks or barriers to keep vehicles
away from from excavated edges.

Erection Tolerances
Standards vertical to within plus/minus 20mm in 2.0m ( subject to a total deviation of 50mm ) Bay lengths &
width plus/minus 200mm on the designated lengths level to within plus/minus 20mm in 2.0m ( subject to a
maximum deviation of 50mm ).
Lift height plus/minus 150mm on the designated height.
Nodes less than equal to 150mm on the designated height.
METHOD
Before work on the scaffold, all Giraffe Scaffolding operatives involved in the task will be briefed on this
document and sign to accept.
This is the standard that Giraffe Scaffolding set for work that falls under the TG20:13 criteria for all
scaffolding projects.
The operatives will then be given a task briefing on the scaffold being erected. This will be a 2-way
conversation between the Giraffe Scaffolding Supervisor and the scaffolders involved in the erection of the
scaffold.
The briefing will take place on site at the work area. Proof of the briefing will be sent to PC. A hard copy will
be kept in the Giraffe Scaffolding site file.
The scaffold that has been requested requires a design and will be erected in strict compliance with that
design (large internal birdcage) as well as best practice from the TG20:13.
The scaffold material will be transported to the project on a Giraffe Scaffolding scaffold lorries.
Giraffe Scaffolding operatives will access the back of the lorry via a secured ladder and the bed will have a
handrail that will run around the 3 sides for maximum safety.
The lorry will sit in the designated loading area and the scaffold material will be removed from the trailer
manually and transported to the work areas and erected.
The Giraffe Scaffolding vehicle will be maneuvered onto the site through the site entrance by Giraffe
Scaffolding trained traffic marshals and will exit site in the same manner.
Should the situation arise whereby emergency services need to access the road then the vehicle will be
moved out of the way immediately.
The driver will stay on site with the lorry always.
This process will be repeated daily.
The lorry will be marshaled out by Giraffe Scaffolding scaffolders wearing Hi-Vis vests and PPE.
The lorry will comply with the site speed limit when entering or exit the site.
An exclusion zone will be set up around the areas of work.
This will be erected, controlled and monitored by the PC.
The scaffold independent will be erected in strict compliance with the guidelines set out in TG20:13. The
use of hop up brackets or step up brackets will be used to erect an advanced guardrail where applicable.
Scaffolders will be clipped onto to the scaffold always when standing on the hop up brackets. Scaffolders
will always clip on above their heads to a securely fixed point. This will ensure that Giraffe Scaffolding
scaffolders will be working behind the safety of a single handrail always when erecting or dismantling
scaffold on site and that the harnesses are being used correctly.
All power tools on the site will be PAT tested and certification of the in date tools are in the Giraffe
Scaffolding site file. Giraffe Scaffolding use a cold cut reciprocator saw for cutting scaffold tubes and
boards. All scaffold tubes will be secured to a fixed tube low to the floor when cutting so that the off cut falls
directly into a scaffold sack from only a few inches away. If the tube being cut is longer, then a second
scaffolder will hold the off cut as it separates from the cut steel.
There will always be a safe route for access to and from the work area. A ladder access will be erected as
the independent progress to enable safe access to the scaffold at all times. All ladders will be secured
adequately always with ladder ties. All scaffold tubes and fittings that have the potential to cause harm will
be fitted with safety caps. All ladder accesses will have a swing gate or ladder hatch attached to the
entrance/exit of the ladder on all working lifts.
All scaffold operatives will be fully compliant with the site rules PPE policy always.

The scaffolds will be erected with safety as the primary concern at all times. Giraffe Scaffolding operatives
erecting or dismantling the scaffolds will work on a safe platform with adequate fall prevention. Scaffolders
must be standing on a minimum of 3 scaffold boards and be behind a single guardrail unless the area is too
small and 3 scaffold boards do not fit. If the situation may arise where a safe working platform cannot be
erected scaffolders will be clipped on to ensure maximum safety or erect as many boards as possible
depending on the space in which the scaffold is being erected. Giraffe Scaffolding operatives will stop work
and report to their supervisor if the working environment changes from when the daily task briefing was
carried out or where their safety may be put at risk from situations being carried out on site by other trades.
All fittings used in the erections of the scaffolds conform to BSEN-74 regulations.
The top lift of the scaffold independent will be fully guard railed and toe boarded.
There will always be a safe means of access to and from the scaffold during the erection or dismantle. This
will be via a ladder secured to the scaffold with ladder ties.
All ladders used in any scaffold will protrude 1m past the scaffold boards as stated in SG4:15. Where a
ladder cannot fit due to space, an alternative fixed rail will be installed to accommodate where the ladder
would have been.
Giraffe Scaffolding scaffolders have had in-house manual handling training and are aware of the correct
means of picking up or placing down scaffold components.
Operatives are advised to only pick up weights that they are comfortable with or to share the load if need
be.
When passing scaffold components to pairs of hands will always be on the tube at the point of interchange.
No tubes/boards or scaffold fittings are to be dropped or thrown to or from the scaffold at any time. Where
necessary a secure pulley system will be fixed to the scaffold to hoist material up. This will be set up within
our exclusion zone.
The scaffold will be handed over to PC and a hand over sheet will be signed by both Giraffe Scaffolding and
PC and copies will be filed by each party for their records.
On completion of any scaffold, it will be inspected and scafftagged to show that it is in good working order
and compliant with PC requirements. The scaffold will then be inspected as a minimum every 7 days
thereafter, this will be the PC responsibility to organise.
Special control measures will be taken whilst working at height and site segregation will be:
Safety fall arrest harnesses to be used in strict compliance with the SG4;15
Single/Double lanyards
Work to the guidelines set out in TG20:13 and this accepted RAMS

Objectives:
The objective of this task is to strip out and remove the existing internal fabrications.
Existing Environment:
Then from the entrance of the site, the operatives will require a Safe Route" to the staircase that lead to the third
floor welfare facilities (depending of where the current welfare facilities are - these will be moved around site to
suitable locations to suit scope of works.
This safe route will consist of a demarcated clean route", and will be created as a priority, with the intention of
stripping out the required surrounding fabrication, as soon as possible, but with the minimal disruption to the main
access egress to the site and without causing any hazards to the operatives using the route, therefore the strip out
works in these areas will be controlled and isolated where required.
The reason for this is because TWA will be taking occupancy of the third floor, and due to security reasons, will be
restricted access.
Compiled by Safety Services (UK) Ltd. The correct use of any material is the responsibility of the user.
© Safety Services (U.K.) Limited 1983 - 2018 :: Page 208/471
Because of this restriction, and the need to be able to gain access to the welfare facilities within the TWA area (to
gain the required PPE) there will be the requirement for this safe route.
Once the required PPE is gained, All operatives will then return to the second floor work area.
Because the building is occupied and will remain so, there is the constant hazard of interfaces between ourselves
and the staff within the building.
This possible interface will be constantly monitored by Company Name Management, and if not sufficiently
controlled within this method statement, then an addendum will be drafted to supplement this method statement.
The initial foreseeable interfaces, are to the preliminary strip out works, where 50% of the second floor will remain
occupied, whilst we are carrying out the strip out to the remaining 50% of the floor.
This will be controlled by the placement of temporary pedestrian barriers and warning signage.
Company Name Management will also draft a memo to the remaining staff to inform them of our works, intentions
and the procedure in the event of an emergency which will basically mean that in the event of a fire, that the staff
will be permitted to enter the site area to gain escape if no other means of escape is available - only.
This will also work in the alternative that is to say that the site operatives would be able to escape through the live
area if the means of escape is blocked / unreachable.
Another possible interface area will be the lifts, which will be the common means of access, but will be of a minimal
basis as this will be for access means only.
Other interfaces will involve the use of the goods lift this will be on a good will basis and Company Name
Management will ensure the tenants have priority of the use of the goods lift.
Company Name will only use the lift when absolutely necessary, and will wait until the lift is no longer required / not
in use before utilising we will also ensure the safety of any third parties, during the use of the goods lift, this will be
implemented, with the use of a dedicated banksman.

1.5 Once completed all operatives will be given a toolbox talk on this method statement and all
associated risk assessments and applicable COSHH and manual handling assessments,
1.6 The toolbox talk will not be given as read, but will highlight the major safety requirements of
this method statement and the required safe systems of work created, the purpose of this is to ensure that the
operatives receive the most valuable and important safety
1.7 The operatives will then be informed of the specific risks highlighted through the
assessments carried out and how we require the operatives to actively participate in implementing the
assessed control measures.
1.8 The site manager will then ask all operatives if they understand what has been told to them and if they
want to ask any questions about the method statement and risks assessed.
1.9 When finished, all operatives will then sign the toolbox talk register to confirm their understanding of
the method statement and risk assessments and to prove that the talk has actually taken place.
1.10 The site manager will then issue to all operatives a copy of this method statement and risk
assessments as a term of reference for them.
1.11 A copy of this will also be placed in the work area for any person to view or refer to.
2.1 The first activity will be for the site manager to survey the required area(s) to ensure that there are no major
hazards that will affect the commencement of the works.
2.2 The site manager will be looking for slip, trip & fall hazards, he will also be ensuring that there are no
hazardous materials and checking that all existing services are isolated, this will be accomplished through receiving
a copy of the minor works isolation certificate from Mace (through the electrical contractor) he will also be ensuring
that there is safe access and egress to the place of work and that there is no interface that would compromise
Company Name or any other third party.
2.3 If there were any interface problems or specific risk then this will be brought to the attention of Mace
before works begin.

Once satisfied, the site manager will allow works to commence.
3.1 The next activity will be to encapsulate the work area to ensure that no unauthorised persons can enter
the area.
3.2 This will be achieved by means of physical barriers in the form of pedestrian barriers and warning
signage.
3.3 We will then use strategically placed prominent signage, to warn all others of our presence and our works /
intentions, and as previously mentioned, a memo will be drafted and circulated to the remaining staff of the level.
3.4 This will be implemented at every accessible entry to the work site.
3.5 The entire area will then be checked by the site manager to ensure the integrity of the barriers and to
ensure that it is sufficient to protect and warn all third parties and provide Company Name with adequate
working boundaries to for the operation.
3.6.1 Prior to commencement of any works Mace will copy all relevant certification as regards to mechanical /
electrical isolation for the works area or if Hazardous materials are identified I.E (asbestos etc) again Mace will
issue relevant certification stating what and where any hazardous materials are located or that all known hazardous
have been removed / made safe prior to ACL commencement on site.
3.6.2 Once ACL have all the current certification, works will start. Due to the sensitive nature of some of the
works, the exact sequencing of the works is not known, and will be carried out on a day to day basis.
3.6.3 Because of this, the supervisor, Company Name Manager and Mace Management, will agree all areas of
works, prior to commencement.
3.6.4 The strip out work for this project requires the following items to be removed:

Once the beads are removed, both operatives will take the weight of the unit, (which is of an moderate weight /
size), and lower the unit to the ground taking care at all times.
During this operation, the supervisor will be monitoring the works ensuring that the area remains clear and free of
third parties at all times.
Once lowered to the ground, the unit will be positioned in a safe place ready for later disposal.
Drylining:
The supervisor is to ensure that all services are isolated prior to removal of the partitions.
As previously mentioned, the majority of the drylining is demountable, and will therefore be removed
sectionally and unscrewed as opposed to breaking out.
Operatives will wear gloves, goggles and if necessary masks during the removal works this will be monitored by the
supervisor & ACL manager.

Dust generated during processing may cause irritation MDF is largely composed of softwood bound together usually with a urea formaldehyde or melamine urea formaldehyde
resin When it is machined very fine dust is produced Just like natural wood dust this is a potentially hazardous substance and it must be controlled For example wood dust can
cause skin disorders and asthma Hardwood dust in particular can very rarely cause nasal cancer - and as such is classified as a carcinogen in Control Of Substances
Hazardous to Health COSHH Regulations The evidence that softwood dust can cause cancer is less conclusive It is not classified as a carcinogen in the UK However all wood
can cause irritation and we draw your attention to the guidance given in HSE woodworking sheet no 30 Toxic woods Under COSHH Regulations softwood dust has a maximum
exposure limit MEL of 5 mg m3 8 hr TWA - this is the relevant limit for controlling exposure to MDF dust Exposure must be reduced as far as is reasonably practicable below
this limit - usually with properly designed and maintained dust extraction equipment fitted to woodworking machines When using portable or hand-held tools extraction
equipment often is not practicable or available in which case a suitable dust mask should be worn If possible MDF should be machined in a well-ventilated workplace for
example outside
First Aid :
Inhalation Inhalation of MDF dust can only occur during processing If inhalation of dust causes adverse effects remove to fresh air If discomfort persists seek medical advice
Skin In case of irritation from dust generated from processing of MDF wash with water Eyes If particles enter the eyes during processing immediately flush eyes with plenty of
water Seek medical attention if irritation persists
Disposal :
Manufacturing waste must be disposed of as a controlled waste Special consideration should be given to containing dust to prevent spillage during transit
Fire :
Non-flammable at room temperature but will burn In case of fire soak flood with water For large fires fire fighters should wear full emergency protective equipment including self-
contained breathing apparatus Wood waste or dust may present a fire or explosion hazard- good housekeeping practises must be followed
Spillages :
MDF does not represent a hazard in sheet form However dust generated from processing MDF should be contained carefully collected and removed
Storage :
a Manual Handling In sheet form MDF can present a manual handling risk due to its physical dimensions and weight Good lifting practice should be followed Note A 2440 mm
by 1220 mm sheet of 18 mm standard MDF weighs approximately 40 Kg

hazardous impurities n a n a remainder None
Effect :
Lead in massive or sheet form is not a significant health hazard However the following information is relevant if your blood lead is elevated as a result of breathing in lead dust
fume or vapour or as a result of swallowing lead due to poor hygiene practices Toxicokinetic assessment Lead is slowly absorbed by ingestion and inhalation and poorly
absorbed through the skin If absorbed it will accumulate in the body with low rates of excretion leading to long-term build up Part of risk management is to take worker blood
samples for analysis to ensure that exposure levels are acceptable acute toxicity Lead massive metal is not considered to be acutely toxic It is not easily inhaled or ingested
and if it is accidentally ingested normally passes through the gastrointestinal system without significant absorption into the body Lead is not easily absorbed through the skin b
skin corrosion irritation Studies have shown that sparingly soluble inorganic lead compounds are not corrosive or irritating to skin and this lack of effect is expected also for
metallic lead This conclusion is supported by the lack of reports of irritant effects from occupational settings c serious eye damage irritation Studies have shown that sparingly
soluble inorganic lead compounds are not corrosive or irritating to eyes and this lack of effect is expected also for metallic lead This conclusion is supported by the lack of
reports of irritant effects from occupational settings d respiratory skin sensitisation There is no evidence that lead causes respiratory or skin sensitisation e germ cell
mutagenicity The evidence for genotoxic effects of highly soluble inorganic lead compounds is contradictory with numerous studies reporting both positive and negative effects
Responses appear to be induced by indirect mechanisms mostly at very high concentrations that lack physiological relevance f carcinogenicity There is some evidence that
inorganic lead compounds may have a carcinogenic effect and they have been classified by IARC as probably carcinogenic to humans Group 2A However it is considered that
this classification does not apply to lead in articles given the very low bioavailability of metallic lead Carcinogenicity studies of lead metal powder have been negative
Epidemiology studies of workers exposed to inorganic lead compounds have found a limited association with stomach cancer IARC has concluded that lead metal is possibly
carcinogenic to humans Group 2B g reproductive toxicity Exposure to high levels of inorganic lead compounds may cause adverse effects on male and female fertility including
adverse effects on sperm quality Prenatal exposure to inorganic lead compounds is also associated with adverse effects on the development of the unborn child There is
evidence that neurobehavioral development in children is affected by exposure to lead h STOT-single exposure Inorganic lead compounds have generally been found to be of
relatively low acute toxicity by ingestion in contact with skin and by inhalation with no evidence of any local or systemic toxicity from such exposures The bioavailability of lead
metal is low and acute lead exposure is not expected to result in acute toxicity effects i STOT-repeated exposure Lead is a cumulative poison and may be absorbed into the
body through ingestion or inhalation Although inhalation and ingestion of lead in massive form are unlikely poor hygiene practises may result in hand to mouth transfer which
maybe significant over a prolonged period of time Inorganic lead compounds have been documented in observational human studies to produce toxicity in multiple organ
systems and body function including the haemotopoetic blood system kidney function reproductive function and the central nervous system j aspiration hazard Lead metal is a
solid and aspiration hazards are not expected to occur
Action :
Lead is not a reactive substance and no reactive hazards are expected 10 2 Chemical stability Expected to be stable under normal conditions of use 10 3 Possibility of
hazardous reactions No hazardous reactions expected under normal conditions of use 10 4 Conditions to avoid Not applicable 10 5 Incompatible materials Strong oxidizing
agents 10 6 Hazardous decomposition products No decomposition if used as directed
Protective Clothing :
Respiratory protection Suitable respiratory protective device recommended if work activity is likely to result in formation of lead fumes vapours or dust In case of brief or low
level exposure use dust mask or half mask with particle filter P2 Assess the need to wear respiratory protective equipment in production areas Consider use of effective masks
accompanied by a compliance policy ensure proper shaving ensure workers do not remove RPE in production areas in order to communicate Where masks are used employ
formal mask cleaning and filter changing strategies Hand Protection Protective gloves Material of gloves Neoprene or Leather Eye protection Safety glasses Skin protection
Wear protective work clothing For workers in areas of significant exposure provide sufficient working clothes to enable daily change into clean clothes In such cases all work
clothing should be cleaned by the employer on a daily basis and is not permitted to leave the work site
First Aid :
Description of first aid measures EYE CONTACT Ensure that contact lenses are removed before rinsing eyes Separate eyelids wash the eyes thoroughly with water 15 min
