Robert Morgan 20 Ivanhoe Road, Garthdee, Aberdeen AB10 7EY Development Management Planning and Sustainable Development Aberdeen City Council Business Hub 4 Marischal College Broad Street Aberdeen AB10 1AB Date 27th of Feburary 2016 Dear Sirs, Following on from our recent meeting I’m writing to inform you on the stages during the pre-construction and construction phase of this project. The document enclosed is a health and safety report in addition with the procurement methods that will be carried out. This report goes through the procedures of choosing the correct contracts, calculations for building costs, fees for the architect and a time scale for the works that are to be carried out. I hope that this helps with understanding the next steps in the project and if there are any further questions please don’t hesitate to ask. Yours Sincerely,
Robert Morgan
PROJECT INTRODUCTION
01
To the north of Bergen there is a small suburb, Eidsvag, which is an inlet from one of the main fjords running through the area. It profits from an immense landscape, having the North Sea to its west and the high, steep mountains to the east, an aspect that Norway is synonymous with. 60m above Eidsvag, to the east is the lake Jordasvatnet which is fed by a series of rivers from the steep mountains that stretch high both to the north and south of the lake. This is where I propose for my dam to be built. As already mentioned, the Bergen area is fortunate to have a series of mountains that surround it. The city itself is a huge tourist attraction and many of those tourists come to hike over these mountains that allow for incredible views over the entire city. This is where the project was born from, the idea of extending the existing hiking route around Bergen over to our new settlement. From this came the development of the Hydro-electric dam. Currently, Norway is heavily dependent on Hydro-Electricity as their primary energy source with it supplying over 96% of the national demand in 2014. Throughout the country there is an ongoing programme of investment in new H-E stations. As well as the dam itself there will be two other buildings, these being much smaller in size. These are linked to the dam by a concrete wall that runs in front of them both. The one building is a rest-stop/ cafÊ for the hikers that pass through and the other an apartment that can be rented by tourists or residents alike. As the dam is a project that would be carried out by a civil engineer or a specialist dam engineer I’ve made the focus of this report on the two smaller buildings

The clients of this project will be Bergen Kommune (the local council) as they are the clients for the masterplan as a whole. Though the project is situated in Norway we are being assesed on Scots Law so I will write this report as if the building was under Aberdeen City Council. . Fig. 2 Location Plan (Not to Scale)

SITE Appointment and Project Notification What must be established and clarified by the client before starting is whether the project is notifiable or non-notifiable to the HSE. A project becomes notifiable where it lasts longer than 30 days AND has more than 20 workers, working simultaneously at any one point OR exceeds 500 person days of construction work (Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015). As the timescale of the project will be over the 30 day limit with more than 20 workers it becomes notifiable, which crucially means the appointment of a Principle Designer is required at the beginning of the project. The client must submit a notice in writing to the relevant enforcing authority (HSE, Office of Rail Regulation (ORR) or Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR)). Every day construction work is likely to take place (including weekends and bank holidays) counts towards the period of construction work. The client must submit the notice as soon as practicable before the construction phase begins. In practice, the client may request someone else do this. Details about the information that should be notified are set out in Schedule 1 of CDM 2015. The easiest way to notify any project (to HSE, ORR or ONR) is to use the electronic F10 notification form. The client must ensure that an up-to-date copy of the notice is displayed in the construction site office, so it is accessible to anyone working on the site and in a form that can be easily understood. The client can either do this themselves, or ask the principal contractor or contractor to do so (Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, online).

Land Acquisition As the site is currently owned by separate parties it will have to be purchased by the client (in this case the local council) before any work may commence. There are two stages to this process; the contractual stage and the conveyancing stage.
Fig. 5 Site Image
Under the Land Registration (Scotland) Act of 1979, the transfer of land will be recorded on the Land Register once all of the appropriate and necessary processes have been undertaken. This is all done with an appointed solicitor (Speaight, Stone 2010). Only when this has all been completed can design work be started. Site Access & Security The site has vehicular access from one street only, Selvikveien which is to the north of the site. There is a minimal amount of pedestrian movement on foot through this area there is a minimal amount of danger when delivering materials and construction

equipment to the site. Although, the danger to other motorists is high as the road is narrow and this must be addressed. There is no need for complete road closures other than the closure of Selvikveien itself. This has no adverse effect towards traffic movement as the road currently leads to nothing other than a viewing platform for walkers. During the construction process, the building is open and the site must therefore remain sealed around the perimeter to satisfy three main objectives: - Security against theft - Security from vandals - Protection from innocent trespassers (Chudley, Greeno 2006). Site security measures must be taken to reduce the risk of danger in terms of health and safety, the main one being fire through arson. These must be put in place before the site work is underway and closed off to the general public. The measures would include: - Minimum 1.8m high fence should be erected around the site - Floodlighting to allow work to proceed in poor levels of daylight and for security at night
Fig. 7 Site Security Plan
- Lockable store for small and/or valuable items with an internal fence around storage compound - Hut for gatemen to check validity of all persons entering the site - Strong and lockable site entrance gates See Fig 7 to see how these would be placed on site. CONSTRUCTION METHOD Sub Structure The accommodation building has a lower ground floor which will require excavation to be carried out to remove earth. This will be done in an open excavation method using hydraulic backtactors. The hydraulic backactors provide greater control during excavation, preventing accidents during this phase of construction (Chudley, Greeno 2006). Safety measures will have to be taken to remove the possibility of workers becoming trapped in the basement. Safe access to and from the basement should be provided (Chudley, Greeno, Hurst, Topliss 2011). The earth is of a rocky quality, meaning there’s little to no chance of the basement caving in once excavation has been carried out. The basement will consist of two compartments making the most suitable option for foundations a box and cellular raft. The walls will be externally tanked and insulated. The basement raft foundation will be the first to be laid followed by the reinforced concrete walls that 9
will be retaining on the north side will follow. Before the concrete for the walls is poured the temporary, high grade OSB formwork must be erected around the steel reinforcement. Once this has been done the concrete can be poured over the steel reinforcing bars via telescopic crane and funnel. Construction team members that are on site are to take extra care during this process as loose bars could cause injury if stepped on. Falls into the pit may occur during the construction of a basement, to make this less likely guard rails should be placed along the perimeter of the excavation area.] Superstructure The basement and ground floors of the superstructures are all reinforced concrete floors with insulation on the inside and underfloor heating laid over the whole flooring. The finish of the floors will be a Nordic Spruce timber floor. Much like the walls, the concrete floor slabs will be poured over the steel reinforcement. These will be put down after the construction of the basement. The ground floor over the basement area is a timber floor, timber I-Beam joists with insulation between the joists. Once the concrete work has been finished the site will be cleaned of any loose concrete and steel so as not to mark the timber that will be the structure for the remainder of the superstructure. The structure is a timber post and beam construction and will be erected as per the supplier’s guidelines. Safety measures must be carried to ensure that no worker is injured during the lifting and placement of each structural member. Workers are to wear hard hats and harnesses if positioned above ground. Whilst this work is being carried, scaffolding will be erected around the perimeter of the building and will rise as construction advances. The roofing structural members will be hoisted into position by the use of a hydraulic truck crane, taking every care that they are fastened securely and lifted carefully into place. From this, the infill of the wall and roofs will be positioned between the structural members. This work can either be carried out from the scaffolding or from the internal shell of the building. Windows and external door openings will be covered with guard rails until the pre-fabricated units are brought onto site, positioned and fixed as instructed. Cladding & Finishes The next objective would be to make the building watertight once the structure is finished; this has to be done before moving onto internal finishes within the buildings. As mentioned, the pre-fabricated glazing units will help achieve this. They will need to be mounted into place by the workers using suction cups taking every care no to damage the units in any way. As there are no large panes of glass, the scaffolding won’t need to be removed or collapsed if it is still in use. This means that workers can be positioned inside 10
and outside or the building removing much of the risk of falls. Timber shutter board cladding is what makes the external finish, which are nailed manually to vertical battens that give a clear air gap between them and the structure. The scaffolding can still be used by the workers for ease of positioning and to reach the higher points of the walls. The zinc roof is done in the same manner with the workers fixing it manually, though the panelling will have to be lifted using the truck crane. Material for the internal finishes must be handled with care so as not to damage them in any way. The rooms are of standard height but to reach the material to the ceilings a mobile work platform could be used. The flooring material will be laid once all other works have been carried so it isn’t damaged during construction. MAINTENANCE Fire Safety Though both the buildings are reasonably small in size, the zones in the cafÊ have different occupancy patterns and heating requirements making it susceptible to fire hazards, especially with the kitchen. Fires in commercial premises can be devastating, not only in terms of injuries, but also in the cost of repairs and the disruption to business. There are three main categories that fire precautions can be split into; structural protection, active protection and means of escape (Adler 1999). Structural protection is provided as the timber members will be treated with an intumescent varnish that slows the process of fire damage to allow users to escape from the building. The equipment and fixed systems that are installed to detect a fire are what make up active protection within a building. Once detected, the active protection will notify the occupants and then eradicate the fires. These systems include smoke alarms, fire extinguishers, fire blankets, sprinklers if required and electromagnetic door releases. Portable fire extinguishers should be place around the building; in the kitchen and in the public space. These should include a mix of dry powder (in both kitchen and public spaces) and wet chemical extinguishers (in the kitchen to combat oil fires). In the accommodation block fire blankets should be provided in the kitchen area to cover any pan fires that may occur. Fire detectors should also be placed in every room other than the kitchen and the internal doors must be give suitable fire protection. Services As both the buildings are reasonably small, with the maximum floor to ceiling height being 5m there isn’t a significant risk to a person if they are to change any fittings such as lights, even at the highest points. Fig. 11 Section and Elevation

Although, because ladders or step-ladders do not provide any fall protection the use of a small mobile platform with guardrails should be used (Health & Safety Executive 2012, online). The mechanical ventilation systems that are used in the rest stop should be maintained in a similar fashion. Glazing Maintenance of windows will be done from both the inside and outside. This introduces a fall hazard as the windows higher up will need a moveable platform to be cleaned, changed or fixed. There is no need for a permanent window cleaning cradle system because of the scale of the project, thus the external envelope is not compromised aesthetically. There are no rooflights in the project so the maintenance of these is not need. Cladding & Roofing The cladding is specified as timber shutter-board panels lying horizontally that are a contemporary homage to the traditional Norwegian houses. This system shouldn’t need much maintenance once constructed as the timber will be treated before applying to the building skin. Though if there is a reason for the replacement of a panel two workmen should carry it out so exertion is less likely, reducing the risk of personal injury. They should also use a temporary moving platform to reach higher panels.The roofing can be accessed also by a temporary platform. If climatic wind conditions are a threat, then perhaps postponing until settled weather is preferable. If you consider that a risk of a fall still arises, then fall protection measures should be carried out (webcommunities.hse.gov.uk, 2016).
Fig. 12 Fire Escape Routes
Residual Risks Residual Risks are defined by Brian Cooke and Peter Williams as: ‘remaining risks despite the control proposed.’ (Cooke, Williams 2009).
measures
There are residual risks once the project has been completed, to the public and the employees working at the rest stop. As the users will be predominantly hikers coming from off the hiking route there could be risks with wet floors if weather conditions are poor. This could pose a risk of slipping and falling which could cause a serious injury. Procedures must be carried out to inform the users of any immediate risk.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

PROCUREMENT METHOD Procurement Selection The client, being the local council, is looking to build a mixed development providing a steady income stream over a long period of time. The creation of a high quality design is crucial and for this the best option is to employ an architect as the principle designer. From this the use of a Traditional Procurement method is recommended. The client will first appoint an architect to design the project in detail, and then prepare tender documentation, including drawings, work schedules and bills of quantities. Contractors are then invited to submit tenders for the construction of the project, usually on a single-stage, competitive basis (designingbuildings.co.uk, 2016). The client can then choose which tender is the most satisfying, depending on costing, quality of previous works done by the contractor and the timescale stated. Advantages Though there are other procurement methods available, the Traditional/Conventional is most suited to this project. Design and Build Procurements are subject to a comprise in design as the contractor has the ability to change aspects of the building on site. Traditional Procurements are the most commonly used in projects today with an RIBA member’s survey in 2012 suggesting that 86% of them frequently use it (ribaplanofwork.com, 2016) and in 2009 37% of projects employed it (Cooke, Williams 2009). It is considered to be a low risk method of contracting for the client, as the contractor takes the financial risk for construction. However, if design information is incomplete at tender, or if significant variations are required after the contractor has been appointed, the cost to the client can be significant (Jctltd.co.uk, 2016). CONTRACTS Contract Selection The positions of all counterparts are to be considered when selecting the contract type, including the client, architect and contractor. After giving clear reasoning for using a Traditional Procurement method, choosing the most suitable contract ensures that construction of the design can be built to the highest quality. As this is a reasonably large project, where detailed control procedures are needed and good communication across the whole team a JCT Standard Building Contract with Quantities (SBC/Q 2011) is suitable choice for all parties (Cooke, Williams 2009). Use of a Standard Building Contract with Quantities (SBC/Q) should ensure that all tenderers are using the same quantities. Unless stated otherwise in respect of any particular items, the contract requires the Contract Bills to have been prepared in accordance with the 7th Edition of the generally recognised Standard
Fig. 14 Procurement Route Graph (RIBA 2016, online)
Method of Measurement published by The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors and the Construction Confederation. The accuracy of the quantities is the employer’s responsibility, and the contract provides for the correction of errors with appropriate adjustment of the Contract Sum. The Contract Sum is the total arrived at in the fully priced copy of the itemised Contract Bills (Deciding on the appropriate JCT contract, 2011). Collateral Warranty The definition of a collateral warranty given in the Scottish Conditions of Appointment for an Architect (SCA/2014) is: ‘A Collateral Agreement is an agreement between the architect and a third party existing in parallel with the agreement between the architect and the client.’ They provide for a duty of care to be extended by one of the contracting parties to a third party who is not party to the original contract (Designingbuildings. co.uk, 2016). As there are third parties involved because of the nature of this project (mainly the café tenants) they should enter into a 10 year collateral warranty agreement with the architect and contractor. This protects them from carrying out and, in turn paying for costly repairs which may have resulted through construction and design work that has been finished below par. DISCIPLINES Design & Construction Team The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 replaced the CDM 2007 Regulations on the 6th April 2015 with revised duty holder responsibilities and placed enhanced responsibilities on Clients (Sweett Group, 2016). Where there is more than one contractor, or if it is reasonably foreseeable that more than one contractor will be working on a project at any time, the client must appoint in writing; a 13
designer with control over the pre-construction phase as principal designer and a contractor as principal contractor (Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, 2015). Principal Designer - assist the Client with the project set up, identify, obtain and collate pre-construction information and distribute, advise on missing information, co-ordinate health and safety, ensure designers comply with their duties, liaise with the Principal Contractor, prepare the health and safety file or pass responsibility to the Principal Contractor and comply with core designer obligations. Principal Contractor - The principal contractor must: plan, manage, monitor and coordinate the entire construction phase. They must also take account of the health and safety risks to everyone affected by the work (including members of the public), in planning and managing the measures needed to control them (Hse.gov.uk, 2016). Civil Engineer – the role of the Civil Engineer is to calculate all structural concerns regarding loads on structural elements within the design. These could include where necessary; slabs, beams, posts, joist and rafters to name just a few. This would result in the most adequate sizing of these elements. Quantity Surveyor – the quantity surveyor is to; conduct feasibility studies to estimate materials, time and labour costs and preparing, negotiating and analysing costs for tenders and contracts. They can also advise on a range of legal and contractual issues and once work is completed, valuate the building and arranging for payments. Sub-contractors – sub-contractors will be appointed by and work under the main contractor during the construction phase. The sub-contractors tend to the minor works packages such as lighting, ventilation, services and plumbing. Surveyor – before the construction phases happen the site has to be surveyed accurately; this is done by the surveyor. They are also responsible for pointing out existing service positions such as gas, electricity, water and drainage. Landscape Architect – Though they aren’t entirely compulsory, a landscape architect may be required to give guidance on the design of the hard landscaping and external materiality. PRE-CONSTRUCTION & CONSTRUCTION PHASES The Gantt chart that is provided in this document gives guidance and understanding to the pre-construction and construction phases of the project. It runs through the project as a whole, with each Stage of the RIBA Plan of Works broken down giving a broad overview of the programme in its entirety.
COST BUDGET Building Functions For the benefit of costing, the project is split into two main functions; the accommodation and the rest stop/café. The cost of each of these will be calculated by multiplying the floor area by an indicative £/m² rate taken from an online source (service.bcis.co.uk, 2016). This site can be used to find similar projects that have been built within the area and compare the cost. From the table I will use the high end rate given as this is more closely related to the type of quality work that will be carried out. A percentage costs of external works, which will also be of the higher end will then be multiplied so as to give a notional cost for each building based on their function and floor area. As mentioned, the higher end costs have been used because of the quality of finish that the client is requesting. Cafe Floor Area = 318m² Rate = £2571/m² External Works Percentage = 18% = (318 x 2571) = 817,578 +18% = £964,742 Accomodation Floor Area = 183m² Rate = £1828/m² External Works Percentage = 28% = (183 x 1828) = 334,524 + 28% = £428,190 Total Cost Café cost + accomodation cost = 964,742 + 428,190 = £1,392,932 PROFESSIONAL FEES & EXPENSES Architects Fees Traditionally there are 3 standard ways an architect may charge: A percentage of the build cost - This requires that an approximate build cost can be estimated (so that an appropriate percentage can be calculated) and that the scope and nature of the services required from the architect are known. Lump sum fee - This is popular for home owners and small clients as it gives certainty about the total cost at the outset. Lump sum fees are appropriate where the scope of work required is well known when the appointment is made. If the nature of the appointment or of the project varies beyond agreed limits, then the fee may need to be re-negotiated. 14

RIBA Plan of Work Phases
PRECONSTRUCTION AND CONSTRUCTION GANTT CHART
Hourly rate - This is generally reserved for work where it is difficult to define the scope of services required or the nature of the project when the appointment is made. It is important in this case that fees are capped to a maximum that can be charged without prior agreement and that detailed records of hours worked are kept (Designingbuildings.co.uk, 2016). I will be using the percentage of the build cost method. Though the RIBA have abolished their indicative fee scales I was able to find a guide that an architect uses for the new 2013 RIBA Plan of Works. The fees are payed over a number of stages during the project to provide and maintain a steady income to the office. There can be extra costs out with the fee schedule including additional time charges and expenses. RIBA 2013 Plan of Work Stages (see outline below) 0,1,2: 20% (Completion of Concept Design) 3: 20% (at Planning Application Submission, or equivalent) 4a: 20% (at Building Regulations Submission) 4b: 15% (at Tender / appointment of Contractor)
Frequancy of house prices/m2
5a: 15% (at commencement of decorations) 5b: 8% ( at Practical Completion) 6: 2% (at issue of Final Certificate) 7: No Fee (In Use) (emma-adams.co.uk, 2016) Before the architect issues the Certificate of Practical Completion, according to the guidelines above, a total of 98% of the fees should be paid. Once the Final Certificate has been issued, the remaining 2% will be paid (Carnell, Yakeley, 2003).
Frequancy of cafe prices/m2
The professional fees from Stage 2 – Concept Design to Work Stage 5b - at Practical Completion are calculated at 8% of the construction cost (PinderAyres, 2010). = 0.08 x 1,392,932 = £125,364 Expenses including travelling and printing are charged as an additional cost with an estimate of £7500 in this scenario. ESTIMATED TOTAL ARCHITECTS FEE = £132,864
16
Planning Fees Planning fees are split into two principal areas for nonresidential buildings; site area and gross floor area as per the following rates: - £401 per 0.1 hectare of the site (subject to a maximum of £10,028), + - £401 per 75m² of the gross floor area (subject to a maximum of £20,055) (Aberdeen City Council 2016, online) The overall area of the site is 0.3106ha so the planning fee for the site is: = 0.3106ha / 0.1 = 3.106 = 4 (rounded up) x £319 = £1276 The gross floor area of the building is 501m² so the cost is calculated by multiplying this value by the 75m² increments of £401 as per the following: = 501 / 75 = 6.68 Therefore this value is multiplied by the £401 rate: = 7 (rounded up) x £401 = £2,807 TOTAL PLANNING FEE = site fee + gross floor area fee = £2,005 + £2,807 = £4812 Building Warrant Fees The purpose of Building Standards is to ensure that building work on both new and existing buildings meet reasonable standards. However, this does often require a fee to be paid with a Building Warrant application. A Building Warrant must be gained once the project has been given planning permission otherwise work cannot commence on site. This application requires an additional fee to be paid to the local council that are processing the application (in this case Aberdeen City Council). The fees payable for Building Warrant applications are set by the Scottish Executive through the Building (Procedure) (Scotland) Regulations 2004. The fee for an application is based on the ‘value of the works’ (aberdeencity.gov.uk, 2016). These fees range from £100 to £5787.50 depending on the costs of construction. For projects that exceed £1,000,000 an additional £250 is added to every £100,000 (or part thereof) extra to the construction cost. Therefore for a total operational cost of £1,392,932: First £1,000,000 = £5787.50 Remaining £392,932 = 392,932/100,000 = 3.92 Therefore 4 (rounded up) x 250 = £1000 TOTAL BUILDING WARRANT FEE = 5787.50 + 1000 = £6787.50 17
