INTRODUCTION

Accurate, timely and comprehensive information, especiallydesign information, is essential to all parties involved in aconstruction Project. To achieve this, everyone throughout thesupply chain needs to understand exactly what they have to do,the level of detail required and the dates by which information is tobe provided. Unfortunately, on many Projects these proceduresare either not properly established or are poorly managed. Bothproduction of information and its exchange need to be improvedin order to reduce wastage and overruns and to enable the Projectteam to deliver improving services to Clients. This applies just asmuch to Projects incorporating Steelwork as to any other.

Usually, the process of establishing production and exchange ofinformation will be one of dialogue between the various Projectparticipants involved in the design and delivery of the Project - aprocess made easier when Project teams are assembled in acollaborative way but possible and indeed common in traditionallyprocured Projects.

The early identification of design requirements is the easiest wayof avoiding late variations, which are always expensive. Steelworkis produced by a factory based manufacturing process that ishighly mechanised and increasingly automated. Consequently,Steelwork manufactured in the factory tends to be made veryefficiently, a process that is difficult to reproduce on site. Forinstance, it is estimated that a hole drilled in the factory costs afew pence yet the same hole drilled on site once the steel iserected can cost several hundred pounds, the reason being thatwork on site often requires work to be carried out at height,requiring different equipment and more personnel, andrepresenting an increased safety risk. Much wastage can be cutout of the system if there is good information available from thestart, allowing as much fabrication as possible to be completed inthe factory. If this is not possible, the design team must make aclear decision that site works will be needed and the steelworkcontractor informed early in the project.

Additionally, the CDM Regulations provide the following:

‘Every designer shall in preparing or modifying a design whichmay be used in construction work in Great Britain avoidforeseeable risks to the health and safety of any person -

(a) carrying out construction work;

(b) liable to be affected by such construction work…’ (paragraph 11(3))

This publication will therefore be a useful tool for the CDM co-ordinator to ensure compliance with the CDM Regulations.

Exchange of information can take place by many different methods- extranet, CD, e-mail or hard copy. Only one method should beused on any given Project and the agreement of all the partiesshould be reached at the beginning of the Project as to themethods which will be used and the status of informationexchange by such methods. One efficient way to do this is by useof a collaborative controlled electronic publication managementenvironment such as a Project wide shared server, a Projectextranet or a web-based Electronic Publication ManagementSystem, such as the Avanti SMP.

Whatever methods are chosen, proper exchange of information atthe right time also aids proper planning leading to safer work onsite by minimising out of sequence working and the modificationworks that will often need to be carried out whilst working at height.

The purpose of this publication is to provide guidance foridentifying the requirements for the production and exchange ofaccurate, timely and detailed information for Projects involvingSteelwork. It includes a comprehensive list of design activities anddesign information requirements in the form of Checklists to assistin the procurement of Steelwork prior to and following theappointment of a Steelwork Contractor.

USING THIS PUBLICATION

3.1 Background

This publication is intended for anyone involved in a Project thatmay have an input into the exchange of information for the designand/or fabrication and/or erection of Steelwork. It is designed toassist in defining and managing the interfaces that exist in allconstruction Projects and in particular to minimising the potentialgaps and overlaps that may occur in the information supplied bythe parties involved in the procurement of Steelwork.

The following points are important to note:

1. This publication does not attempt to deal with liability for designwork, simply the practicalities of who does what design, when itis carried out and how information is distributed throughout theProject team.

2. This publication is intended to be used no matter whatprocurement route is chosen and therefore references to formsof contract and procurement routes have been avoided.

3. This publication is not a mandatory requirement on designersand Contractors. It needs to be specified as a requirement inthe Project by the Client and advisers for all participants in aSteelwork contract.

This publication is primarily designed as a supplement to ordetailed explanation of Tables 1.1 and 1.2 of the NSSS but canequally be used independently. Also, as far as possible, it hasbeen designed to be compatible with the CIC Scope of Servicesand the RIBA Outline Plan of Work. With regard to the CIC Scopeof Services, it provides a further level of detail, amplifying theSpecific Scope Schedule (which sets out primary designresponsibility for certain elements at various stages). Thispublication also fits in with BSRIA's 'A Design Framework forBuilding Services'.

The Checklists in Section 4 are intended to encourage discussionbetween those procuring and those supplying the Steelwork inorder to seek general agreement on the respective roles andresponsibilities of those engaged. This will include clear agreementon who will provide the information necessary to enable the design,detailing, manufacture, supply and erection of the Steelwork andthe timescales within which it should be provided.

The Checklists may be used as the basis for a set of agreementsbetween the Client and other parties as appropriate regarding theproduction and exchange of information for procuring theSteelwork, which should be reflected in each Project teammember's contract.

Appointments are not always made at the same time and socompleting the Checklists early in the procurement process maywell require allocating certain activities to as-yet unknown parties.These can simply be marked 'to be confirmed', and refined later asappointments are made. However, it is essential that allappointments making a contribution to the Steelwork are madewithin the timescales required by the Project. Depending on thenature of any later appointments, certain activities may have to bedone by parties that have already been appointed; in this case,roles and responsibilities may need to be re-defined.

The Checklists can also be used to identify activities which havenot yet been allocated to any Project team member. Here, theybecome part of the Project risk management process.

3.2 Design Co-ordination

It is important that the interfaces between different members of theProject team are clear with appropriate roles and responsibilitiesdefined and allocated. In particular, there is design coderequirement for one party to be clearly responsible for overseeingthat overall structural stability is achieved even though theSteelwork may only be a part of an overall structural systemsupplied by a range of contractors. In addition, the organisationtaking the lead on co-ordination between design and manufactureshould be clearly identified so that every member of the Projectteam can make informed decisions about its own role and costs.

Problems may also arise where there is a spatial conflict betweenthe Steelwork and other elements of the Project including buildingservices. These can be avoided by ensuring responsibility isallocated for the checking of spatial co-ordination. This is dealt within the Checklists.

3.3 Design Stages

This publication uses two design stages relating to the Steelwork:preliminary design and detailed design; these are called DesignStage 1 and Design Stage 2. The more detailed design stagesused in other publications - for instance the RIBA Outline Plan ofWork and the CIC Scope of Services are included here for the sakeof comparison.

Design Stage 1 is equivalent to RIBA Stage D - DesignDevelopment, Stage E - Technical Design and Stages G & H -Tender Documentation and Action or CIC Stage 3D DesignDevelopment.

Design Stage 2 is equivalent to RIBA Stage F -Production Information or CIC Stage 4D - Production Information.

By the end of Design Stage 2 all the information necessary tofinalise the Fabrication Drawings should be available and fixed.This includes any minor adjustments to dimensions aroundopenings for doors, windows etc. and addition of any requiredsecondary Steelwork members. Major additions or changesshould not be carried out during the period leading up to theinformation exchange date.

Any alterations in the design should be discussed and resolvedbefore the end of Design Stage 2, to enable the personundertaking the design of the Steelwork to finalise the SteelworkGeneral Arrangement Drawings. Required information exchangedates should be highlighted in the Steelwork Contractor'sconstruction programme and should be set to meet therequirements for the start date for the design, fabrication and/orerection of the Steelwork as required. On large Projects or onProjects where phasing is required, multiple exchange dates maybe appropriate.

The end of Design Stage 2 should be clearly shown on the Projectprogramme so that all parties are aware of the informationexchange dates that have been agreed.

Table 1 gives a description of the two Design Stages 1 and 2,together with the outputs expected at the end of each stage.

3.4 Drawings, dimensions and activities

The scope and detail of documentation required for the Steelworkwill vary widely from project to project depending on suchparameters as size, complexity, location and the project deliverysystem. However, in general, complete information should include:

• A clear description of the structural elements and the orientationand overall stability of the structural system, includingnecessary schedules, sections and details

• A clear specification for materials and workmanship specific tothe Project

• Co-ordination within the Steelwork documentation and withother Project documentation

• Dimensions for structural elements and for their location

• The relationship of the structure with adjacent non-structuralelements and finishes

• Governing codes, design loads and design criteria for variousstructural elements and materials as required by the codesand/or needed for flexibility in future use

• Identification of parts of the structure designed by others (thatis, not the Steelwork Contractor) and the clear design andperformance requirements for these parts

• Clearly defined quality assurance measures required for thestructure including Contractor quality control and independentinspection and testing (e.g. welding).

The NSSS may be used to identify additional workmanship andmaterial specific information.

The Steelwork General Arrangement Drawings should include:

• Details of assembly

• Material properties

• Sizes for all structural elements

• Dimensions required for the preparation of Fabrication Drawingsand the fabrication and erection of the Steelwork.

The essential elements necessary to arrive at structural dimensionsinclude:

• Overall building dimensions and gridlines

• Location of all structural elements with respect to gridlines

• Identification of position of edge of slab

• Structural floor elevations

• Top of steel levels

• Size of all framing members

• Adequate description of x-sections shapes

• Base level below finished floor level

• Setting out related to an agreed datum

• Camber requirements

• Structural wall thickness

• Services routing strategy including structural zone

• Required tolerances

• Cladding zones.

A reliable mechanism is needed for implementing andtracking any design changes. Drawing revisions should beclearly identified and fully and unambiguously describedwith dated revision number and 'clouding'. It is essential thatall changes are promptly identified and clearly documentedand issued to all parties to minimise their impact on bothcost and programme.

THE CHECKLISTS

4.1 Background

This Section contains Checklists to assist in the process ofagreeing responsibility for the activities associated with the design,fabrication and erection of the Steelwork. They are intended to aidthe communication, co-ordination and clarification of the scopeand content of a Steelwork contract between the differentdisciplines involved and stages of the design process throughoutthe design, fabrication and erection of the Steelwork. It is intendedthat the Checklists should be used by the team participants whenagreeing the scope and responsibilities within the Project team andin particular the responsibilities of the Steelwork Contractor.

4.2 Using the Checklists

The first Checklist is simply a list of the team members, that is, theProject Directory, and is the first publication that should be created.In general this publication should include the following for eachProject team member:

• Name and address of company • Contact person• Telephone number• Fax number• Email address• Role

The second and third Checklists break the two design stages intoeight main areas: General, Design, Fabrication, ProtectiveTreatment, Inspection and Testing, Erection, Output and ProjectSpecific Requirements. The first seven areas are further sub-divided in to detailed information required at that stage in theprocess. The Checklists also allow the responsibility to provide theinformation to be allocated to members of the Project Team andthe date when the information is due to be clearly identified. Themain deliverables from each of the stages are listed under theheading Output and again the Checklists allow the partyresponsible for provision of the information to be identified.
