1st Edition
by David England (Author), Andy Painting (Author)
Practically and efficiently implement the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations in any project
In An Effective Strategy for Safe Design,
safety and risk professionals David England and Dr Andy Painting
provide a comprehensive exploration of the design process, from initial
idea to the validation of the product in service, from a product and
project safety perspective. In that context, the authors show how the
appropriate implementation of the requirements of the Construction
(Design and Management) Regulations 2015 can not only improve health and
safety on a project but can also improve the project’s output as well
as offering savings in both capital and operational expenditure.
Readers
will discover how the seemingly complex matters of regulation and risk
management can be practically applied to projects via examples,
illustrations, and real-world references. They will find out how safety
regulation, standards, and initiatives all converge on the same goal—the
safest output from any given project.
The book achieves three primary goals:
- To improve the understanding and implementation of the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015
- To reduce errors during the design process via the effective implementation of design management strategy
- To embed the concept of safety in design
Perfect for designers, design managers and supervisors, project managers, surveyors, and insurers, An Effective Strategy for Safe Design is also an invaluable addition to the libraries of principal designers, specifiers, and building control officers.
