RISK = PROBABILITY x OUTCOME

* Probability means the likelihood of something going wrong.

* Outcome means the result when something goes wrong.
* The simple Matrix below allows calculation of risk even for non-skilled operatives

METHOD STATEMENT

A Method Statement is an agreement between the workforces, Service Provider and the Person or Organization
requesting the work and that the work being undertaken is being managed and any risk is mitigated to an acceptable
level.
The method of work must be clearly communicated and understood by all parties involved. Operatives undertaking the
works the works supervisor and line managers must sign the document as agreement with the method of works.

It must be noted that more than one method statement may be required for any sequence of works.
Method statements and risk assessments go hand in hand, as the method of work is dictated by the risks identified, and
the risk is identified by the proposed method of work.

When conducting risk assessments in the first instance all built in safety experience must be ignored. This will allow
identity of the risks associated with what work is proposed. Then methods of work can be developed to reduce risk to an
acceptable level.

  MOS:
Dismantling and complete removal of two warehouses.
Civil / Architectural: -
 Dismantling of two warehouses.
 Removal and proper disposal of debris as per KAUST Standards.
 Maintain a high standard to avoid damage to other utilities or improvements and to provide safety and
convenience for the public and is not intended to interfere with the utilities type of construction or equipment
used.
- Maximize protection of the public and work force during construction.
- Minimize inconvenience and disruption to adjacent land users.
- Provide quality job exercise.
- Minimize future maintenance cost.
- Barricade & secure the areas affected as per KAUST Safety & Security Policies
- Mark all affected areas.
- Clear and clean the site.
 It is necessary to support and protection, on all affected and not affected by demolition, temporary and/or
permanent, prior, during and after project commencement based on actual site condition.
 All labour, materials, including, scaffolding and appliances necessary for the completion of the projects.

General scope: -

 Securing of permits and RAMS.

 Mobilization of machinery
 Mobilization of Man power & Equipments
 Barricading of Area
 Dismantling of Roof sheets using man lift and Crane
 Securing of beams with slings attached to the Crane
 Un-securing of beams
 Cutting of Beams/material
 Dismantling of steel structure
 Loading and Unloading on dump truck
 Clearing and Cleaning of area from debris and material
 Demobilization of machinery
 Closure of Permits and Project

Prior to any works commencing on site a Site

 Specific Method Statements will be prepared by the contractor for all the elements of the work on each location.
These method statements will outline precisely how will approach and carry out the works associated with the
project.
 These method statements will be submitted to the KAUST Representative for approval, work will not commence
prior to the relevant method statements being approved.
 Contractor shall verify all locations, site conditions and dimensions prior to any project commencements.
Removal of services
 All affected utilities shall be coordinated to the concerned trades.
 Prior to demolition works all services will be identified on site with reference to the site investigation, topographical
and utility surveys with additional investigation works carried out as required.
 All services on site will be disconnected, diverted, or removed as per site condition and as per approval of KAUST
representatives.
Demolition of existing structure
 Prior to demolition works a full structural review of the existing structure will be carried out to review the stability
of the existing structure and to assess the temporary measures such as propping that will be required during the
demolition stage. These measures will be provided to ensure the structure is demolished in a controlled manner and
there is a negligible chance of an unplanned structural collapse.
 Prior to demolition works a soft strip of the structure will be completed to remove any loose fixtures and fittings.
Once the property has been cleared back to its base shell demolition will commence. Demolition will take place
from the top down starting with removal of the lightweight steel roof. Any temporary propping or crash decks
required will be designed by suitably experienced chartered design engineers with a proven record in temporary
works design. The structure below will continue to be carefully demolished using hand tools to cut the structural

Page 4 of 20
 members, such as the steel columns/trusses or RC floor/beams, into manageable sections for easier removal. Road
saws or other suitable equipment will be used rather than using mechanical breakers where possible. Steel
members can be dismantled and removed where feasible.
Minimizing risk of collapse
 Following on from the soft strip out of the structure a more thorough assessment of the structure will be completed
by the demolition engineers. This will confirm the assumptions made heretofore and will inform on any particular
risk that needs to be accounted for.

Steps to avoid unexpected Collapse

 The corrugated sheet on the roof and walls will be unscrewed/dismantled using power and hand tools on
manlift/mobile scaffold.
 Small beam supporting the main beam will be cut using power tools and gas torch, the main beam will be supported
by mobile crane after calculating centre of gravity to stabilize the structure.
 The walls are then ties with ropes from inside of the structure to avoid fall of walls. The supports must be given to
the walls from both sides (inner and outer) with wooden logs and/or steel pipes.
 The main beam will be dismantled and settle down on the ground using mobile crane, two taglines must be
attached to hold the load.
 The walls are then dismantled into pieces while having the supports from both sides of the walls. Walls are the
settle down using mobile crane. This procedure will be repeated for all four walls.
 The dismantled material is to be cut in pieces to transfer outside of KAUST premises.

The following is a high-level method statement for the demolition of the structure.

Warehouse 1:
 Top down method shall be implemented for the demolition.
 Steel structure and roof dismantling shall be carried out stage by stage without affecting the structural stability.
 Roof shall be dismantled at first. The removal order shall be roof tiles and other roof partitions then battens and
finally rafters to follow using mobile crane.
 Then the structural elements shall be dismantled. The dismantling area shall be identified and be checked on the
discontinuity of structural system prior to dismantle.
 In the case when structural stability of beams is affected, the affected beams shall be propped prior to loss of
support or restraint. Propping shall be provided until the confirmation of structural stability
 The demolition order for the super structure shall be secondary beams, main beams and finally columns.
 Gas cutting shall be used if necessary to disconnect welded joints. It may also require to cut the welded joints using
angle cutter. The dismantling will also require to work at height using manlift / mobile scaffold.
 Once superstructure is removed, floor demolition shall be started.
 Floor slab shall be demolished by gradually breaking away from the edge of slab.
 The reinforcement shall be remained and be cut off after the concrete is broken away.
 As the final process of the demolition, substructure shall be removed. First the stumps then footings shall be hacked
away. If require, an excavator shall be provided to remove the footing.
 Any holes/pits found shall be immediately backfilled with a suitable material

Warehouse 2:
 Dismantling of second warehouse (erected by tube and clamps) to be carried out by trained and competent workers
under supervision of Supervisor / Foreman.
 An assessment (by the supervisor) of the best method of dismantling will take place that reduces overall risks, risk at
falling materials and maintenance of the stability of the structure.
 No ties or bracing shall be removed in advance of general dismantling.
 Working area will be cleared and will remove all debris to avoid any obstruction.
 All possible access to the dismantled sections of warehouse should be barred and a warning sign displayed.
 Tubes and fittings will be stacked at ground level unless the first lift has been designed to support the extra loading.
 Unauthorized personnel shall be restricted from areas where the dismantling of warehouse taking place.

All dismantled material will be properly arranged and stacked with barricades and signage prior to removal. The
material is then will be removed from the site outside of KAUST premises using trucks.
The area will be cleared and will perform housekeeping, all debris is to be removed through AVERDA / third party
outside of KAUST premises.

facilities in cooler conditions.
 Prevent - dehydration. Vital lost water must be
replaced. Provide cool water in the workplace
and encourage workers to drink frequently
and in small amounts before, during (where
possible) and after working.

new and young employees, telling them about
the risks of heat stress associated with their
work, what symptoms to look out for, safe
working practices and emergency procedures.
 Allow - workers to acclimatize to their
environment and identify which workers are
acclimatized or assessed as fit to work in hot
conditions.
 Identify - employees potentially most
susceptible to heat stress due to illness,
condition or medication that may contribute
to the early onset of heat stress or those with
heart conditions. You may need advice from
an occupational health professional.
 Monitor - the health of workers at risk. Where
a residual risk remains after implementing as
many control measures as practicable, you
may need to monitor the health of workers
exposed to the risk. You should then seek
advice from an occupational health
professional.
 Offer – appropriate rest time rest time.
Implement work/rest schedules according to
temperature and humidity levels allowing
workers to shake off excess heat, slow down
the production of internal body heat, reduce
the heart rate, and improve blood flow to the
skin. Recommended rest time is dependent on
the clothing worn - the heavier the clothing,
the more rest time will be required.
