1.3 Construction Methodology

The designer is to confirm the temporary works methodology accords with that
envisaged by the Permanent Works Designer in the Form A, else list any variation
here with reasoning.
1.4 Temporary works
The Temporary Works Designer is to describe temporary works needed to facilitate
compliance with the DIA, such as the provision of temporary footbridges, hoardings,
alternative means of escape, phasing, and such like, where applicable.
The Temporary Works Designer is to consider impact from other disciplines on the
provision for temporary works, e.g., for services and other equipment supported on
temporary works.
The Temporary Works Designer is to review permanent works designs to ensure that
the Permanent Works Designer’s requirements for temporary works construction
methodology and sequencing have been accommodated, where applicable.
The Temporary Works Designer shall be satisfied that all temporary works designs
have been adequately designed and checked for stability at all times, so as not to
import risk of collapse during erection, use or deconstruction. This shall be
demonstrated to the satisfaction of the PE (B&C) and DPE.

1.5 Proposals for the staging of the Design and Design Check submissions

The designer is to confirm the temporary works staging accords with that envisaged
by the Permanent Works Designer in the FormA, else list any variation here with
reasoning.
1.6 Design criteria and design statement
1.6.1 General
The methodology that is to be adopted in the Design is to be stated here including
the proposed methods of analysis. Where relevant, reference is to be made to
NR/L2/CIV/003/F1990 to NR/L2/CIV/003/F1994 & NR/L2/CIV/003/F1997 and
decisions on the options/choices recorded.

1.6.2 Geotechnical Design and Considerations


For designs including geotechnical aspects, this Form is to either include, have
appended or refer to, a Geotechnical Design Report (GDR). (NB for Design Check
Category III works, the Geotechnical Design Report is not to be included in this Form
(to maintain independence of Design Check) but is to be provided separately.
Where ground investigations have been undertaken, this Form is to either have
appended or refer to, a Ground Investigation Report (GIR).
