The Temporary Works Seminar is set to take place on May 22nd at the Princess Royal Suite at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. The seminar covers the following:

How things go wrong including:
Mobile Cranes

Session 1 & 2 both cover:
Mobile crane piling platforms - Jonothan Mack (Keepmoat)
Scaffolding - Ivan McManus and Martin Reader (Morgan Sindall)
Site set up - Chris Bennion (Keir Construction)
Excavations - Steve Hall (Costain)
Propping - Michael Greenhalgh (Lend Lease)

There's also the following to look forward to in the afternoon:
DfMA – The implications for temporary works - Martin Holland & John Carson (Laing O’Rourke)
Catastrophic events - Mike Cross (HSE)
Q&A Panel
Overview - John Carpenter

Registration starts at 8am and the day runs to 3:30pm with refreshments being available throughout as well as there being a lunch.

The reason the seminar exists is because there have been a number of high profile incidents in recent years which has highlighted the often poor management of temporary works during construction projects. The seminar aims to increase the understanding of the management of temporary works and will provide details on the successful management of typical temporary works scenarios.

To book you place, please email karen.nicholson@hse.gsi.gov.uk. Please include the names of your delegates, their positions, and contacts details.
