The intended trades are extracted from these documents and entered in the health and
safety plan according to the structuring (see above). With the hazard catalogues to prepare
the site, the health and safety coordinator has a tool available to
- determine the hazards, which could occur around the project and enter them into the
health and safety plan,
- propose occupational safety measures and enter them into the health and safety plan,
- taking the figures from:
- BM - Blaue Mappe: sample bill items for tenders
- StL - Standard topic of bill items
- GM - Gelbe Mappe: “building blocks” from the construction insurance bodies.
The checklists for setting up the site provide assistance to the coordinator in order to
- propose the site facilities from the point of view of health and safety, and enter this into
the health and safety plan and
- take the appropriate figures from the BM / StL / GM into the health and safety plan.
With the catalogue of hazards by trade, the health and safety coordinator has an aid avail-
able in order, to
- determine the hazards and the associated health and safety measures individually for
each trade and enter these into the health and safety plan and
- adopt the appropriate figures from BM 1 StL GM into the health and safety plan.
Transfer of the intended construction schedule into the health and safety plan. The
construction schedule is drawn in the form of a bar chart in the central part of the health
and safety plan. At this stage the appraisal and the collection of data with the aid of the
guideline is complete and the actual coordination can begin.
Evaluation of reciprocal hazards resulting from spatial and temporal proximity.
When reciprocal hazards can be expected, which affect more than one trade and are due
to temporal and spatial dependencies, the coordinator should propose an alteration of the
construction schedule. If this is not possible, protection measures should be provided to
counter the problem. The result is then adopted into the health and safety plan. The health
and safety plan must therefore be available before the construction schedule can be pro-
duced.
Coordination of the necessary safety facilities taking into consideration the construc‑
tion schedule. After the technical safety measures (scaffolding, support etc.) have been
determined separately for each trade, these can now be synchronised (duration of use,
scaffolding class, type of support etc.). The items of communally used safety equipment
determined in this way are entered in the lower part of the health and safety plan with their
duration of use. The coordination work is now complete.
Proposals for bill and specification items for the tender. Now the numbered items in
the bill of quantities for the intended health and safety works can be assigned according
to trade and entered into the right-hand side of the health and safety plan. In addition, the
required drawings and instructions are decided with their intended time of production
(design phase, construction phase). In order to create a legal basis, reference is made in
the last column of the health and safety plan to selected regulations, which are taken from
the hazard catalogues (Fig. 8-9).
