scope:
This standard covers the design, fabrication and erection of temporary works associated with civil engineering works and building works. This standard also applies to such works associated with all asset areas. Material requirements are covered in standard T0005.
Temporary works are site installations which do not form part of the permanent works and which are required to facilitate the safe construction of the permanent works. Temporary works can take many forms depending on the nature of the material or structure to be temporarily supported. Examples include hoist towers, lifting beams and gantries, site hoardings/ barriers, way beams, earth support, timber shoring, steel or other framing for facade retention, significant falsework and shuttering for concrete placement, temporary bases for cranes and temporary piers for bridge erection. Temporary works are usually removed after their function is complete, however in certain circumstances elements of the temporary works may be abandoned (residual temporary works).
This standard does not apply to third party (outside party) works being undertaken on their own land which is covered by standards S1023 and G0023
There are references within this document to the LU process for temporary works. It is however acceptable for other companies within TfL to follow their own equivalent approved process.
Purpose
