Summary
Most construction work requires some form of Temporary Works (to support excavations, to support concrete whilst it gains strength, to support tower cranes, etc.). These temporary works can represent a significant part of the construction process and can have a large impact on cost (sometimes 50% or more), time, quality and safety and as such, need to be properly managed to improve project delivery.
A comprehensive list of further information is included for those interested in learning more on specific aspects of temporary works.
