MODULE 3

*SUBSTRUCTURE.       


Getting on site.


*Hazard boards record new, ongoing and unusual significant hazards specific to a site - along with their required control:
  • Hazard boards should be installed at site main entrance
  • The site main contractor keeps the hazard board up to date, including hazards created by subcontractors if they affect others on-site
  • Hazard board also describes the hazard’s required control measures
  • Hazard boards must be kept up-to-date
  • The hazard board safety system requires effective communication, monitoring and feedback.
*Tools and Materials.

At this stage I will require a few tools and they will be a Hammer + maul or sledge (for putting in stakes), Nails, Stringlines, Dumpy and Laser level, Steel bar, tape measures (variety of sizes) straight edge and spirit level, dazzle or high vis paint.


* FOUNDATIONS

When setting up the Laser Level the ground needs to be solid and will not move. As well as stability, there needs to be clear vision across the whole site from where the level is set up.





After we set up the profiles, we then marked out the Pile locations, centre pads and the corner pads for the house.(All which was read from the house plans and specs) This building is a transportable home, and therefore we are placing it on foundations which will allow trucks to come in and just pick the house up off the piles and then to the new location.
Once we were satisfied that they were set up square and straight we then pored concrete in the holes.
