2. Z6030 Diesel Artic Boom. 7. 110v Maxistar 210 Tig welder
3. MEWP. 8. Grinders, 5” & 9”
4. Telehandler. 9. Welding Tent
5. Burning Gear – Hancocks 10. Slings/Strops

PTW Conditions: PTW Systems, Permit shall be signed on daily. Permits


handed back at the end of every day. Work areas should
be left clean and tidy, all hazards identified and made
safe.

Sequence and Method of Work to be done

Note – The Central pipebridge will be fully scaffolded to allow a safe working at height platform for the
welders and any other operatives.

1. Consider weather conditions in discussions with the PTW Authority. Agree if the works can be
undertaken.
2. Sign in and acquire Permits from Project Staff.
3. Carry out Toolbox Talk with all Operatives involved in the task, then all to sign TBT sheet.
4. Carry out plant checks (including slings/strops) and associated paperwork, record the data on the daily
plant check sheets if not completed already.

5. Supervisors to assess/review workers have full PPE in procession and its fit for purpose.

6. Supervisor to review work area (including scaffolding) to ensure it is safe to commence work and to
check all safety/demarcation barriers are erected.

7. All Roads to be closed when carrying out works, especially over the road sections.

8. Banksman to be in attendance at all times to assist in the safe movement of the MEWP & Telehandler
and to help ensure no collision with the central & western pipebridge either at ground level or at height.

Proposed Sequence of Work:

Pipework to be pre fabbed in the designated hot work area (see drawing) where reasonably
practicable; pipework to then be strung out on their pipe supports and welded in position. Sections for
the central bridge at high level will be made in 2no sections. (In the hot work area) these will be lifted on
the bridge, (separate lift plan) then (potentially) 1no tie in weld performed at high level. Pipework will be
prefabbed for the culvert-leaving tie in spools for the gantry. (Tie in point and details to be confirmed)

Butt welding and stringing out of pipework


1. A temporary mobile hot work area (including a welding habitat) will be established for welding the
pipework in situ. These hot work area’s are to be agreed at the start of the day and marked on a
drawing. All the necessary equipment to be set up, gas testing, Welding set, tents, bottles etc. for each
weld. This MUST be checked and signed off by the Supervisor prior to any welding commencing.
Weldmec Construction Limited 3
(There will be sections of welding in position along the track to the centre bridge and up and over the
central bridge).
2. Using the fork lift carry and stack the sleepers to a desired height for the welders.
3. The banksman will then rig a section of pipework and call for the forklift.
4. The banksman will then instruct the operator to raise the length of pipe approx. 150mm, he will then
check the stability of the load.
5. If he is happy to proceed, he will then bank the forklift to the sleepers, the banksman shall steady the
pipe as it is transported to the sleepers.
6. The banksman will instruct the operator to lower the boom on the machine, once the pipework is on the
sleepers. He shall then insert wooden chocks where the pipe makes contact with the sleeper to stop it
from rolling.
7. A small pipe stand will be inserted under the end of the pipe where the butt is to be welded.
8. Using a grinder, the pipefitter will clean any paint and loose material from the face of the pipework, he
will then clean any rust and form the 35º angle chamfer to the end of the pipe, the pipefitter may
choose to flame cut the chamfer using the Hancock.
9. The pipe fitter will then install a clamp around the pipe in preparation for the next length.
10. The banksman will then, with the forklift go and rig another section of pipe and bring over to the existing
length of pipe.
11. Under instruction from the banksman the forklift driver will lower the length of pipe into the clamp, and
on to sleepers.
12. Move the welding plant to the location required making sure not to obstruct any other works.
13. Place the drip trays, fire extinguishers and earth the plant, connect the welding cable to the positive
and negative connections on the plant.
14. Clean any paint or rust from a small area of pipework to allow a good earth connection. Connect the
earth lead to the Pipework. Check that the earth connections are working.
15. Clean the area for the welding, using a to provide a good clean surface area.
16. Check the dimensions and locations are correct with Stopfords drawings.
17. The pipe fitter will then adjust the clamp to suit and space if necessary.
18. The Welder will then inspect the butt and confirm that he is happy to proceed.
19. The welder will strike the butt welding the root run first followed by the fills and cap as per the weld
procedure.
20. The welder will clean the welds in-between the passes using grinders.
21. Once the weld has been completed a firewatcher may need to be present for 30mins after the weld
has been finished (Location depending).
22. The gang shall then move to the next location to perform the next weld.
23. Repeat section 01 to 16 for all other in situ welds.
24. High-level sections on of pipework will be pre fabricated at low level this will be done in two
sections(proposed).
25. The sections will be escorted to the base of the bridge by telehandler guided by the banksman, and
placed in an appropriate place for the crane.

26. A rigger will then rig the sections and attach to the chains.
27. The crane will then lift the both sections of the pipework this procedure will be guided by the banksman
and the pipefitter ensuring the pipework slews into the clamp. Operatives will be working at high level
from the erected scaffold.
28. Once the pipework is stable and secure in the clamp the banksman will instruct the operator to lower
the chains and de rig the pipework.
29. The welder will then inspect the butt to confirm he is happy with it.
30. Erect a temporary weld shelter around the weld, ensuring that fire blankets are on the floor to stop
sparks falling through scaffold boards.
31. Move the welding plant to the location required making sure not to obstruct any other works.
32. Place the drip trays, fire extinguishers and earth the plant, connect the welding cable to the positive
and negative connections on the plant.
33. Clean any paint or rust from a small area on the bridge to allow a good earth connection. Connect the
earth lead to the bridge. Check that the earth connections are working.
34. Transport all the equipment up the scaffold using the access ladders provided.
35. Clean the areas for the welding, using a to provide a good clean surface area.
36. A fire blanket to be placed on the scaffold board to stop sparks falling to ground level. .
37. Check the dimensions and locations are correct with Stopfords drawings.
38. The temporary weld shelter shall be deconstructed and carefully removed from the scaffolding.

Installation of Pipe clamp and welded shoes into position.

1. Locate the correct pipe shoes for the support.


2. Using a pipe stand place under the pipework and if required lift the pipework to enable the shoe to be
installed in between the pipe and the support.
3. Install the shoe on to the pipe and clamp using bolts.
4. For welded shoes rotate the pipe through 180º using the Telehandler, guided by the banksman.
5. Mark and clean any paint form the pipe where the shoe is to be located.
6. Tack the new shoe to the pipe and check orientation.
7. Allow the welder to fully weld the shoe in position.
8. Using the Telehandler guided by the banksman, rotate the pipe though 180º.

4. The “worst case” risk classification is then used in subsequent activities (e.g. selecting investigation owner and 4. Other Classifications estimated as: - Asset Damage=B2 (LOW)
level of investigation). The “worst case” is the classification that gives the highest rating of LOW, MEDIUM or Environmental Impact=C3 (MEDIUM) Reputation Impact= A0 (LOW)
HIGH. 5. “Worst case” Risk Classification is: D3 - MEDIUM RISK
5. A “SIGNIFICANT” incident is one with an actual severity of 4 to 5
