About the Book

Temporary works may be temporary in duration, but their failure can have permanent consequences.
From scaffolding, formwork and falsework to excavation support, working platforms, temporary bracing and dewatering systems, temporary works are essential to safe construction. Yet they are often underestimated, poorly coordinated or treated as secondary site arrangements.
Temporary Works: Foundations, Hazards and Governance presents temporary works as an integrated engineering and management discipline. It explains how temporary systems support construction, how failures develop and how competent planning, design, coordination and assurance can prevent serious incidents.
This first volume of the Temporary Works Engineering and Management Series examines:

  • the meaning, scope and lifecycle of temporary works;
  • structural, ground, water and construction-stage hazards;
  • common failure mechanisms and warning signs;
  • technical, organisational and human causes of failure;
  • risk-based and proportionate prevention;
  • governance, responsibilities and competence;
  • communication between design and construction teams; and
  • inspection, monitoring, assurance and organisational learning.
Although informed by recognised guidance, including the BS 5975 framework, the principles are presented for wider international application across different construction sectors and jurisdictions.
Written for temporary works coordinators and supervisors, engineers, designers, construction and project managers, HSE professionals, contractors, consultants and students, this book connects engineering principles with the practical realities of construction delivery.
It does not replace project-specific engineering judgement. Instead, it strengthens the knowledge, questions and professional decisions required to keep temporary works under competent and coordinated control-from initial identification through installation, use, modification and final removal.
A practical foundation for professionals responsible for construction-stage stability, risk and safe temporary works delivery.
