A35 Specific Limitations on Method/ Sequence/ Timing/Use of Site
Checklist:
Problems:
- Avoid putting main and sub-contractors under time pressure which may lead to reduction in drying, curing, setting and strengthening times
- Do not accept a revised programme to make up lost time if it fails to engage with correct drying, curing, setting and strengthening times
- Do stick to the correct sequence of trades; do not stick to the programme if it means getting the sequence wrong
Misunderstandings:
- Lean thinking (eliminating waste in process, time and management activity) applied incorrectly can lead to more wasted materials.
- Efficient labour at the expense of efficiency in materials should be avoided
Solutions:
Value Engineering:
(stuff into projects, not out of them)
Consider:
- Lean thinking to get sites working efficiently
Avoid:
- Fast tack projects which are poorly managed which will generate more waste.

Waste Statistics:
- 2.9 m tonnes (3.2% of 90 m. tonnes/year) of waste is through damage due to methods of work
- 0.9 m tonnes (1% of 90 m. tonnes/year) of waste is generated by poor storage
- 9.4 m tonnes (10.2% of 90 m. tonnes/year) of waste is Temporary works, Site hoardings and Formwork
