What access and ground conditions are required? ›
Access for a 12m artic / 15m trailer; off-load within 2 hours; 14-ton hardstanding lay-down; 3m perimeter hardstanding (~5-ton); base level ±10mm; clear working area and pre-assembly area if needed.
Who provides scaffold, welfare, power and crane/telehandler? ›
Client provides scaffold, welfare, power, skips and crane/telehandler (or we arrange at cost). Under S&E we agree interfaces at Pre-Start; our team prepares the lift plan and supervises lifts.
What base tolerance is required? ›
Slab/base levelled to within ±10mm; foundations by client’s engineer; setting-out to agreed datum.
What are site hours and notifications? ›
08:30–18:30 Monday–Saturday or as agreed. Tell us about any unusual site constraints in advance.
Are travel, accommodation and telehandler/crane included? ›
No. Excluded and charged at cost (or provided by the client). Estimate issued after Stage 2; reconciled post-erection.
When does ownership transfer and who insures? ›
Client insures from delivery. Ownership transfers at delivery (Supply only) or at handover (S&E) once paid as per contract.
