Storage of materials
INSTALLATION OF ANTI-COLLAPSE MESH
The area required for laydown of materials will be contained, either within the
areas of installation of materials, or within a cordoned off area within the ground
floor stores.
Personal Protective Equipment
It is acknowledged that it is mandatory for all installers to wear Safety Helmets,
safety footwear (no rigger boots) and orange Hi Visibility vest.
Additional Personal Protective Equipment, which will be required
Riggers gloves.
Safety goggles.
Work wear.
Safety harness.
Scope of Work
Supply of Delivery Transport, Labour, Materials and Fixings to install:
Troax Musca Anti-Collapse Mesh
One off screen measuring 5,400mm high, nominally 18,420mm in length. The
screen will stand off 150mm from 8 uprights and Troax Ultima stand off brackets
will be utilised.
One off screen measuring 2,200mm high, nominally 15,980mm in length. The
screen will stand off 50mm from 7 uprights.
Method of Work- General
a) Site supervisor will make himself known to the site supervisor or customer
upon arrival at site.
b) Site supervisor and operatives will attend a site induction upon arrival to site
which should last a maximum of 30 minutes, special inductions beyond that
time will require pre work completion.

c) Once inducted the operatives will unload & check the delivery of materials,
which will be delivered by a nominated haulage company and will be stored
on safely on site.
d) The materials will be transferred into the work area in a safe and organized
manner.
e) We will check and clarify the cage / enclosure position, as detailed on the
drawings, with the site manager or customer before the fence erection starts.
Protective Equipment for Personal
Hard hats, toe protectors and Hi-Vis jackets will be worn at all times.
Goggles will be worn when drilling and cutting with electrical cutters
A hot work permit will be obtained if required
Hazardous Material - COSHH
There will be no hazardous materials and or substances used during this project.
Plant Equipment
110V equipment will be used, fed by an on site transformer and onto tools via
110v leads. All equipment is less than 6 months old with the relevant bills of
purchase. All electrical equipment over 6 months old will have a “PAT” test
certificate or labels on tools.
Material Storage
Materials will be stored near the work area in a safe and organized fashion.
Special Safety Rules
Site induction will be undertaken prior to commencement of work.
Manual Handling

All materials and tools will be manually handled carefully to the work area in
accordance with our health and safety policy. This process will require the
method of lifting the panels and tying knots in ropes, a recognized safety knot
will be used and limitation to weights will be adhered to.
Noise and Environmental Pollution
This will be minimal i.e. Drilling steel and cutting steel, all dust and swarf will be
cleared up and disposed of by Installers into rubbish skips on site.
The drilling will cause a short minimal noise level per hole, whilst we take
measures to ensure that our installers are locally protected against dust and noise
the precaution of “further transmitted noise” cannot be avoided during this
installation.
Drilling and Cutting
The above items all require the drilling of holes in to concrete, these holes will
drilled with a “Hilti Type Drill” powered from a on site 110volt Transformer
Disposal of Materials
Removed materials will be disposed of under the control of a “Waste
Management System”, any excess debris will be placed in the skips, origin to be
confirmed.
Product specific build details
Method of Work – Troax Musca all Mesh
f) Generally the Musca will be built with panels in brick type build fashion.
g) The panels are bolted together using m8 x 55mm bolts on the horizontal joints
and a clamp (35700001) on the vertical joints of the first and top row of panels
only, refer to the supplied drawings and follow me assembly instructions.
h) The screen will be built by bolting a row of level brackets directly to the
racking frames at the required start height generally as close to the floor as
possible and at panel dimensions of 1500, 1200 or 700mm there after.

i) The brackets will be bolted to the racking using m10 x 20mm bolts, washers
and m10 nuts, these fixings will be tightened using 17mm spanners or
sockets.
j) The panels will be built by joining two panels together with the clamps as in
(b) and lifting them into the pre-fitted brackets (first and top row only).
k) This will continue until the entire first row is fitted, the last panel will require
cutting to length to achieve the overall required length.
l) Further lifts can be and will be fitted in the same manner expect the clamps
up to 3m high.
m) Panel rows between first and last are only bolted in the horizontal join, the
brick pattern holds the panels together on all other,
n) After 2m high two operatives working from within the racking and using
harnesses will complete the process as described in (h).
o) This process will be continued by the two operatives until the screen is
complete.
p) Once the screen is built the final cut panel will fitted with a capping strip or
finishing kit.
q) After 3m high two operatives working from within a scissor lift will continue
the process as described in (h).
r) They will place a desired amount of panels in the scissor lift cage, but not to
exceed the lifting capacity, they be lifted to the required height and the panels
will be manually lifted into the brackets as described in (e)
s) The fence once complete will need to be checked and signed off for
completion and acceptance.
Please note the racking and the aisle next to the screen must be clear for this
process of Installation.
