Contractors
These Instructions for Assembly and
Use are designed for contractors who
either
■
assemble, modify and dismantle the
formwork systems, or
■
use them, e.g. for concreting, or
■
allow them to be used for other oper-
ations, e.g. carpentry or electrical
work.
Competent person
(Construction Site Coordinator)
The Safety and Health Protection Coor-
dinator*
■
is appointed by the client,
■
must identify potential hazards dur-
ing the planning phase,
■
determines measures that provide
protection against risks,
■
creates a safety and health protec-
tion plan,
■
coordinates the protective measures
for the contractor and site personnel
so that they do not endanger each
other,
■
monitors compliance with the pro-
tective measures.
Competent persons qualified to carry
out inspections
Due to the specialist knowledge gained
from professional training, work experi-
ence and recent professional activity,
the competent person qualified to carry
out inspections has a reliable under-
standing of safety-related issues and
can carry out inspections correctly. De-
pending on the complexity of the in-
spection to be undertaken, e.g. scope
of testing, type of testing or the use of
certain measuring devices, a range of
specialist knowledge is necessary.
Qualified personnel
Formwork systems may only be as-
sembled, modified or dismantled by
personnel who are suitably qualified to
do so. Qualified personnel must have
completed a course of training** in the
work to be performed, covering the fol-
lowing points at least:
■
Explanation of the plan for the as-
sembly, modification or dismantling
of the formwork in an understanda-
ble form and language.
■
Description of the measures for as-
sembling, modifying or dismantling
the formwork.
■
Naming of the preventive measures
to be taken to avoid the risk of per-
sons and objects falling.
■
Naming of the safety precautions in
the event of changing weather condi-
tions which could adversely affect
the safety of the formwork system
as well as the persons concerned.
■
Details regarding permissible loads.
■
Description of all other risks and dan-
gers associated with assembly, mod-
ification or dismantling operations.
■
In other countries, ensure that the
relevant national guidelines and
regulations in the respective cur-
rent version are complied with!
■
If no country-specific regulations
are available, it is recommended to
proceed according to German
guidelines and regulations.
■
A competent person must be pres-
ent on site during formwork opera-
tions.
