1. Introduction
1.1 Purpose
This Preliminary Construction Management Plan (CMP) has been prepared by Acceler project Management on
behalf of Trident Property Group in the absence of an appointed Contractor for the new Health Project at Hoffman
Drive.
The intention of this document is to communicate that this development has been well considered and will be
undertaken in a manner that seeks to minimise disturbance and impact on the surrounding environment. Items
contained in this CMP include:
Impact on adjoining and surrounding properties.
Traffic management including public transport interfaces.
Public amenity, safety, and pedestrian management
Outline of major works
Environmental management
Materials handling
The term “construction” used in the CMP, relates to all works associated with the redevelopment of the site,
including demolition of any existing buildings or structures on site.
The Main Contractor once appointed will work closely with the Noosa Regional Council and adjoining properties, and
other key stakeholders to create plans that will ensure minimal impact and disruption to the surrounding area.
Consultation will continue to be a key priority throughout the construction process to ensure the community and
stakeholders receive regular updates and have the opportunity to provide feedback.
The final version of this CMP will ensure all construction is properly facilitated, integrated and coordinated thus
guaranteeing the Project’s objectives are met.
It is intended that further detailed CMP’s and works plans, for each phase of the project, as outlined in this plan, will
be prepared and relevant approvals secured prior to construction commencement.
This Preliminary CMP has been documented to describe the expectations the Project Management Team shall
implement and conduct its allocated site management responsibilities during the construction of Hoffman Drive. This
Preliminary CMP has been formulated from a conceptual design and may require changes to meet stakeholder
requirements, as detailed design progresses.
The scope of this report provides a holistic approach that:
Advises how the project management team will comply with the requirements of the contract relating
to construction.
Defines the project objectives and targets of particular relevance to the construction phase.
Describes constraints specific to the construction phase and the project in general.
Describes the process for the identification and control of risks specific to the construction phase.
Details the proposed strategy for the construction phase, with particular regard to establishment resourcing,
site organization and construction controls.
The new Medical Facility is located on Hoffman Drive, Noosaville and is located within the industrial and
commercial areas adjacent to the Noosa Civic. The internal and external site conditions imposed by its location
emphasizes the importance of substantial pre-planning, detailed programming and adoption of innovative
construction methods to ensure the prospective acquisition and subsequent delivery of the project is not only a
success for Trident Property Group, but also satisfies key surrounding stakeholders and authorities.
The fundamental aim of this Plan is to ensure all construction is properly facilitated, integrated and coordinated so
as to deliver certainty to the objectives of the Project.
1.2 Precedence
Where ambiguity is detected between the procedures and requirements in this plan and the Construction
Management Systems, then the procedures nominated in this plan will take precedence.

2. Proposed Site
2.1 Site Description
The site, adjacent to Hoffman Drive Noosaville and has a single frontage.
Figure 1Site and Adjoining Roads
2.2 Site Constraints
The site has very few site constraints from the point of view of surrounding road networks and
neighbors however there are a few internal constraints that will need to be considered.
There is a shared access road to the front of the site which is being reconfigured during the
building process. Consultation and coordination with surrounding stakeholders will be
required.
Power supply upgrades will be a requirement for the site and will involve some works by
Energex outside the boundaries of the site and additional works within the site.
There is an existing building on the Southern Boundary which will require protection and
supervision during the construction phase.
There is a vacant lot to the Southern Boundary. Any access to this site shall be approved by
the landowners prior to any access or use.
5
Page 6
There are existing properties to the West of the site separated by a link mesh fence.
2.3 Adjoining and Neighboring Properties
Careful site management, which will minimize disruption and inconvenience to neighboring buildings
and their occupants, is of the highest importance. The Main Contractor will be required to provide 2
points of contact to work with neighbors to understand their needs and requirements, and, where
possible, adjust construction works methodologies accordingly.
Also refer to Section 5.0 - Adjoining Owners Management
2.4 Proposed Development
The proposed redevelopment comprises a 2-storey building including;
Car parking
BOH Facilities
Commercial tenancies to ground Floor and Upper Floor
Plant and Equipment Decks
Extensive Landscaping
The total site area is 7920m2 and the total building Gross Floor Area is 3,800m2
2.5 Key Items
Whilst preparing this Preliminary CMP Acceler Project Management has identified the following key items
and attributes:
Site works will require minor earthworks to the site, ground floor RL’s have considered the natural
topography of the site to minimize bulk earthworks.
A new Pad Mount Transformer is currently being discussed with Energex for power supply
requirements for the site.
Work vehicle access and egress into the site will need to be considered by both the Principal
Contractor and the Civil Sub-Contractor
3. Proposed Construction Methodology
3.1 Hours of Work
General construction works will be undertaken within the hours permitted under the development
approval. In some cases, after-hours permits may be sought from the relevant authorities where special
requirements exist, for example oversized deliveries, crane installation and/or demobilization.
Working hours are foreseen as follows:
Between 6:30am – 6:00pm (upon issue of Conditions of consent) - Monday to Friday
Between 6:30am – 6:00pm (upon issue of Conditions of consent) – Saturday
The council will provide further guidance for working times upon Operational Works approval issue.

3.2 Early Works
3.2.1 Dilapidation Survey
Prior to commencing work onsite, a full Pre-Construction Dilapidation Report will be completed by a
Dilapidation Surveyor for adjoining buildings. This detailed survey will encompass visual inspection of
structural, architectural, services, conditions of the existing adjacent neighboring properties and
infrastructure, roads, environment, site boundaries, Council, Telstra and NBN assets. Access to the
adjacent building will be coordinated with property owners and tenants, at mutually agreed times. A joint
inspection with representatives of the property owners is noted as preferable. These surveys will be
issued to the respective property owners as a record. It is recommended a post construction survey be
compiled for comparison.
The Main Contractor will also be required to install survey control markers on the adjoining building
parapets, to monitor movement during demolition and foundation works as further protection of adjoining
properties.
3.2.2 Surveys
A qualified surveyor will be used to set out the works to ensure works are completed in the correct
location and within building tolerance. As-built surveys will be completed in accordance with Head
Contract and authority requirements.
3.2.3 Geotechnical
Further geotechnical advice will be sought as required to carry out testing and inspections as required by
Australian Standards and the Civil Works Specifications. Any geotechnical laboratory carrying out testing
for this project will be NATA accredited.
3.2.4 Service Identification, Connections and Diversions
A desktop “dial-before-you-dig” survey will be undertaken followed by an onsite service sweep using
multi- frequency electro-magnetic equipment and dual-frequency ground penetrating radar. All services
will be shown on a drawing and marked on the ground for identification.
3.2.5 Closure and Temporary Diversions
A complete traffic management strategy will be developed to encompass both pedestrian and vehicular
controls in conjunction with Noosa Regional Council.
3.2.7 Power Supply
Existing power distribution on site will be used temporarily until permanent power is established.
A new Pad Mount Transformer (PMT) will be installed on site. Energex approvals are currently being
sought.
3.3 Demolition Works
Demolition within the site will be limited to the removal of.
Existing Concrete Access Road (Partial)
Existing Road (To create new Slip / Turning Lane)
3.4 Piling & Retention System
It is probable that the foundations will require a piling solution. At this point of time it is likely that screw
piles will be used for the foundations which will have minimal impact from a vibration and or
environmental perspective. Building platforms will be over excavated and battered to allow for
construction access and piling platforms as required.
3.4.1 Site Clearing
7
Page 8
The site will need to be stripped of the “Topsoil” and removed. The Site earthworks and drainage will be
completed in accordance with any Operational requirements, guidance or restrictions.
3.4.2 Bulk and Detailed Excavation
Following a detailed assessment of the current preliminary structural design and civil documents, the bulk
excavation of the site will be traditional in the overall approach. There is a reasonable cut to the building
platform with all of the removed material being exported from site be removed.
High level footings will be installed to support the building structure any material removed from footings
will be utilized on site where possible or removed from site.
Detailed excavation works will be concentrated on the high-level pad and strip footings and will
commence once bulk excavation has been completed.
There should be no requirement for any Dewatering, there may be some localized dewatering to remove
water from any footing excavations or the like.
Any localized dewatering planned will be developed in conjunction with an Environmental Management
Plan. Prior to any excavation work, the Main Contractor will be required to produce an Environmental
Management Plan.
Environmental controls that may be implemented include a shaker grate, all weather access,
sediment fences and socks, and temporary detention basin’s for stormwater. A preliminary Erosion
and Sediment Management Plan in accordance with the International Erosion Control Association
(IECA) guidelines for the site will be developed as part of the design stage. The plan is required to
be reviewed and updated as required by the Main Contractor in the construction stage, with
allowance for construction methodology.
The excavation and retention sequence the Main Contractor will likely follow is as follows:-
Site establishment and detention devices
Strip Topsoil / Bulk excavation and haul roads
Benching for Building Pad and Carparks
Screw Piling
Retaining walls construction
Backfill retaining walls.
Inground Services and Footings
3.5 Structure
3.5.1 Sub-Structure
Screw piles will be installed at the required grid locations using a large excavator to place and
position piles, High level footings comprising large pad footings and strip footings will be excavated,
reinforced and poured concrete via concrete pumping or direct placement from concrete trucks.
The ground slabs will be a series of reinforced concrete slabs again poured via concrete pumps or
directly placed from concrete trucks.
3.5.2 Lift Cores
8
Page 9
Lift cores will be excavated, and a blinding layer installed after Steel Piles have been trimmed to the
correct RL’s. A base footing will then be poured over a waterproof membrane, reinforced concrete lift
pit walls will be formed, reinforced and poured followed by waterproofing of the external face of the lift
pit walls prior to backfilling.
3.5.4 Structural Walls
The bulk of the external and structural walls are a combination of Tilt-Up reinforced concrete wall panels
and traditional masonry blockwork. The Tilt Panels will be cast on site using temporary casting beds and
will be lifted in place by mobile cranes.
Some of the Tilt Panel wall activities are located adjacent to boundaries and have some risk associated
for adjacent neighbors or properties. It will be expected that the Main Contractor develops Safe Work
Methods for these activities taking into consideration the adjacent properties and persons.
3.5.5 Roof
The roof will be a traditional Structural Steel framed roof with metal deck roofing and proprietary
insulation below. As part of the base works for the fit-out a reinforced concrete bunker comprising of
concrete walls, floors and ceilings up to 1000mm thick will be formed, reinforced and poured.
This will be a large and complex structural element requiring specialized methodologies and
construction sequencing.
3.6 Façade
As mentioned above the external walls (Façade) are predominantly a Tilt-Panel Concrete painted wall.
Other infill walls will be using light weight steel framing with compressed fiber cement cladding and
painted.
All external windows will be commercial grade windows with appropriate treatment for energy efficiency
as required as well as any acoustic properties prescribed in the Approvals.
3.7 Services and Finishes
Services and finishes activities will commence once roof framing has been installed. Internal walls will
initially be set out, and the top and bottom tracks installed to allow final coordination of services and to
ensure fire dampers are installed in the correct location. Rough in services works will consist of high-
level mounted ductwork and pipework which are not reliant on the envelope being water-tight. Once
the windows and cladding have been installed to the façade, the finishes and services fit off will
commence.
4. Site Setup and Materials Handling
The site will be contained and secured with a commercial site fence with appropriate bracing and
shade clothe to minimize noise, dust and provide security. The Main Contractor may choose to install
additional fencing requirements to the front façade enabling various construction access requirements
to the site.
9
Page 10
Exclusion zone fencing may be installed by the Main Contractor as required to minimize damage to
natural nature and fauna areas not designated as construction areas.
4.1 Traffic Management
The Main Contractor will be required to prepare a detailed Traffic Management Plan prior to the
issue of a Construction Certificate. Traffic will generally be managed in the following way:
Designated transport routes will be communicated to all personal, and enforced by Site
Management Team
Designated peak hour and non-peak hour delivery vehicle waiting areas will be assigned.
Strict scheduling of vehicle movement will occur to minimize off site waiting times.
On-site parking will not be provided, and site workers will utilize car sharing wherever
possible. Further investigations will be undertaken to bolster site parking strategy.
Vehicle movements will be compliant with Conditions of Consent and broader road-use
regulations, particularly with regard to hours of work, materials loading and unloading, and over
size deliveries and installation.
A suitable vehicle hold/staging point will not be necessary outside the site area to facilitate the
coordination as deliveries arrive and are unloaded as there are suitable areas within the site for this to
occur.
4.1.1 Street Closures
For works to be completed safely, some temporary street closures may be required. These closures will
be well planned in advance, with approvals sought from relevant authorities. Activities that may require a
street closure include tower crane erection and dismantling, and installation of major plant and
structures. Wherever possible these closures will be scheduled for non-peak times.
4.2 Pedestrian Management
The site is bound by a reasonable thorough fare connecting to Rene Street. There are no existing pedestrian
paths, these will be installed as part of the development.
4.3 Site Accommodation Compound & Shedding
The site accommodation compound and shedding will be positioned is yet to be determined, however it is
likely to be located at the front of the site or potentially on the adjacent site if permission is received.
4.4 Site Security
The Main Contractor will ensure the site is locked and secured when there is not a presence on the site. Licensed
security firms may be engaged as required to provide further security coverage. Typically, this would be over
holiday periods or closer to completion of the project.
4.5 Construction Zones and Material Handling
4.5.1 Construction Zones
All construction traffic will enter and exit via the shared access driveway from Hoffman Drive with
appropriate traffic management and signage to the external of the site.
During the road widening on Hoffman Drive, to provide the slip lane, the Main Contractor and
Civil Contractor will be responsible for all barriers and signage during this phase of the works
10
Page 11
4.5.2 Material Lay Down
Materials will likely be offloaded in one of three locations:
In front of site where proposed new driveway is located
Within building site
Adjacent vacant site (with owner’s permission)
Materials will be unloaded from the construction zones and craned directly to the assigned loading area.
Daily crane meetings will be held to coordinate the material handling for the upcoming days to ensure
minimal disruption to surrounding traffic.
4.5.3 Tower Crane
A tower crane is unlikely to be used for this project, it is more likely that mobile cranes sized for
appropriate activities will be used during the construction period.
4.5.4 Hoists
A man and materials hoists will not be required for this project
4.6 Waste Management
Rubbish bins / skips will be provided at strategic positions around the site, where all subcontractors will
be required to clear their rubbish as it accumulates. These bins will be located around the building and
loaded via forklift into the large skips for removal from site. Change overs will occur as bins are full.
A specific Waste Minimization Plan will be developed in accordance with the Main Contractors
Environmental
Management System to ensure optimum waste management initiatives are implemented.
The Main Contractor will develop a Waste Minimization Plan that is included as a sub plan of the
Environmental Management Plan for the Project. The aim of this plan is to work at best practice in
minimizing the amount of waste produced during the development and manage that waste in order to
reduce the amount going to landfill.
Recycling
Mixed waste bins will be provided with recycling occurring offsite. There is scope for recycling of
reinforcement steel, formwork and concrete at various stages of the project. During fit out, a plaster bin
will be provided by subcontractors to remove plasterboard waste. Subcontractors are to provide their
own smaller bins (or 120/240L wheelie bins) to transport waste to Main Contractors bins.
Food waste bins will be placed at each lunch room, as well as a central 2m3 bin. The food waste bin will
be located at both amenities areas with lids to hold food waste.
4.7 Temporary Infrastructure
The Main Contractor will have ascertained that there is sufficient water and power available to
service the requirements of the site during construction.
4.7.1 Temporary Hydraulics
Temporary hydraulics including cold water, hot water, sewer and drainage will be provided where required
to:
Site toilets, hot water boilers
First aid and lunch amenities
Site office amenities and kitchens
11
Page 12
Bubblers; on leading decks
Wash-outs as required
4.7.2 Construction Power
Temporary electrical services including power, lighting, and data have been provided where required to:
Hoarding lighting (if required)
Temporary lighting to floors and emergency egress exit lighting
Temporary power boards on site
Power for site amenities
4.7.3 Fire Control Measures
Temporary fire control measures consist of:
Temporary Fire Hose Reels on the running deck and Fire Hydrant on the level below will be
installed whilst the structure is being constructed. Permanent fire hose reels and hydrants will be
used to provide fire suppression as the building services and finishes are constructed.
Fire Extinguishers at each temp electrical board, site accommodation and adjacent hot works
Hot work permits will be used onsite
Good housekeeping will ensure fire risks are reduced
Fire drills included as part of emergency procedures.
5. Adjoining & Neighboring Owners Management
Communication
Prior to commencement of works, the Main Contractor will be required to undertake a communication
meeting with the stakeholders and surrounding tenants. This briefing will involve an outline of the
construction sequence, together with an overview of the staging and timing of the works. This initial
meeting will provide an opportunity for input from the stakeholders before finalizing methodology.
To ensure ease of communication between all parties, a protocol will be established to:
Define lines of communication and appoint two points of contact for neighbors
Specific dates for regular communication meetings, if deemed necessary
Implement any Shutdown requirements.
It is essential that stakeholders are aware of current and future activities of the project and how these
could impact them, the duration, what mitigation / contingency measures will be provided by the Main
Contractor.
Points of contact between the Main Contractor’s project team and stakeholders will be agreed for various
scenarios, with stakeholders provided with 24 hour contact numbers.
Services Interruptions and Impairment
Prior to any Authority Services, being impaired to adjoining properties a Disruption Shutdown Application
(DSA) will be made. This process will be implemented on the project to provide advance agreement for
specific work activities to be carried out. DSA’s will typically be made a number of weeks in advance of
proposed work and in line with the agreed project notification durations. Depending on the risk profile of
the proposed work, the agreed notification durations may be required months in advance.
12
Page 13
Complaints Response Process
The complaints response process for the Project will be outlined in the Communication Plan when it is
developed by the Main Contractor. This Plan will describe the Main Contractor’s approach and
procedures for communication with internal and external stakeholders, necessary territory authorities,
and the public.
Emergency Contact
The initial point of contact for the Project for complaints will be the Project Manager and the Site Manager.
Project Manager:
TBA
Site Manager: TBA
As other key personnel commence onsite, further names and contact numbers will be issued and
displayed prominently on sign boards.
6. Environment Management
On commencement of site mobilization, all subcontractors will be inducted into the Main Contractors
Environmental Management Plan and all subcontractors will have had their plans audited and approved.
The Main Contractors Site Specific Environmental Management Plan and the underlying environmental
principles that it reflects, has provided the guidelines for the Main Contractors to successfully undertake
extensive projects in the Noosa Region.
6.1 Occupational Health & Safety
The Main Contractor will be the nominated “Principal Contractor” as required under the OH&S Act.
This role will require the careful and controlled management of worker and public safety. Detailed
methodologies are yet to be developed, however typical approaches include job training, toolbox talks,
and implementation of emergency management plans, safe work method statements, weekly OH & S
meetings and audits to confirm compliance. The Main Contractor will be required to report on OH&S on
a regular basis.
6.2 Hazardous Materials
Consultant survey works are required in order to establish existing site conditions and identify any
remediation works that may be required. This investigation would include:
Hazardous material (Hazmat) survey of the existing structures
Any additional requirements for soil classification, sampling and analysis works
Community liaison plan to be established and contact made with relevant authorities.
In the event that hazardous materials are uncovered once site works have commenced, the following
procedures and principles will be followed; this would be consistent for expected and unexpected
hazardous materials:
Notification to client and project stakeholders
Main Contractor to develop a remediation management plan
Advise the client of the most cost and time efficient solutions whilst adhering to industry best
practice standards
Agree strategy and commence implementation.
With asbestos for example, all employees need to be trained in the recognition of asbestos and
synthetic mineral fiber (SMF) as part of their employers Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS).
13
Page 14
Employees would cease work on discovering any Hazmat not identified in the report and then inform
their supervisor who would arrange for the appropriate action to be taken.
General procedures for hazardous materials removal (including asbestos) will usually be carried-out as
follows, but often specific details and procedures will be developed upon material identification. Detailed
work method statements will be produced identifying processors such as:
The area to be decontaminated to be bunted off at a minimum 10 meter radius
Asbestos warning signage to be erected to inform people of the nature of the work being carried out
‘No unauthorized access’ signage to be erected
Water points to be established
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) including but not limited to Hard Hat, Safety Boots,
Disposable Coveralls, Gloves, Masks and Glasses to be worn at all times when in the Hazmat
removal zone
All personnel involved in the removal of asbestos to have attended and completed the approved
Work cover courses and to be the holders of valid, Work Cover approved asbestos removal
licenses
Tools and equipment appropriate to the type of asbestos containing material to be used for its
removal in order to minimize the disturbance of the material thus preventing the release of
fibers
Where appropriate, water to be used to keep the material slightly damp thus minimizing the
chances of dust and fibers being released
All asbestos waste to be wrapped in 200µm plastic and tightly secured
All asbestos waste to be removed from site and disposed at a licensed EPA asbestos disposal
facility
Asbestos waste to be removed at the end of each shift. Stockpiling of asbestos will not be
permitted
Clearance certificates to be provided on completion of Hazmat Removal.
The protection of all council infrastructure including trees, overhead cables, and existing services will
be managed to ensure that all infrastructure is maintained, and in the same condition at the completion
of the project.
The following protection procedure will be adopted:
Ensure all existing services are identified, and terminated or diverted as appropriate
Ensure movement or placement of construction plant does not damage infrastructure
At the beginning of construction, we will advise adjoining and nearby properties of
commencement date, possible disruptions and approximate construction time.
Site Remediation and Hazardous Materials
Consultant survey works have already been carried out to establish existing site conditions and to
identify any remediation works that may be required. As hazardous materials have already been
identified procedures and principles have been developed. These procedures and principles will be
consistent for expected and unexpected hazardous materials. They are outlined below:
Notify client and project stakeholders
Develop a Remediation Management Plan
Advise the client of efficient solutions according to industry best practice standards
Agree strategy and commence documentation of DSA (Disruption Shutdown Applications)
Communicate DSA to all stakeholders
Validation of Remediation Action Plan upon completion of hazardous material removal.
Hazardous substances supplied to the project will be approved for use and accompanied by a current
Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). All hazardous substances will be registered, correctly stored,
decanted, used and disposed in accordance with the MSDS and regulatory requirements. Employees
will be trained in the Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) based on the MSDS and provided with the
appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
6.3 Site Discharge
14
Page 15
Any discharges from the site will be strictly controlled to ensure hazardous materials and
contaminants are contained to authority requirements and do not pollute the council storm water
system. The Main Contractor will have within its standard procedures, the requirement of spill kits for
hazardous materials also including environmental audits that review the usage and storage of
hazardous materials onsite.
Dewatering
Dewatering may not be required on this site apart from localized dewatering of footing
excavations if necessary.
6.5 Noise and Vibration Management
Particular care will need to be taken during the construction of each phase of the project to control
noise and vibration. Work methodologies and plant selection for demolition and excavation will be
reviewed to determine the most practical and program-effective solutions for these works. This active
approach will mitigate the potential for human discomfort and noise and vibration disruptions to
surrounding key stakeholders.
Prior to the commencement of any works onsite a noise and vibration management plan may be
developed by the Main Contractor in consultation with the Stakeholders to develop strategies for the
mitigation of noise and vibration generated by the works.
In order to help meet the noise and vibration requirements of the site, baseline testing may be carried
out and existing operational levels identified. Early identification of baseline levels will enable
subcontractor methodologies to be specifically tailored to ensure the benchmarks are not exceeded.
Vibration and noise generating activities will be coordinated and undertaken in consultation with the
appropriate parties and carried out during the subsequent agreed periods.
Work methodologies and plant selection will be reviewed to mitigate the potential for noise and
vibration from the new works being loaded onto the surrounding structure.
Work practices that minimize noise and vibration will be used wherever possible. These include but are
not limited to the following:
Flexible working hours avoiding noisy work during peak business operation times
Plant and equipment selection to reduce noise where possible
Plant and equipment fitted with silencers where possible
Diligent housekeeping to minimize the generation of dust
Methodology development aimed at finding alternatives capable of reducing noise and vibration
where possible
Location of major plant such as cranes away from noise and vibration sensitive areas
where possible.
The following items outline some of the expected Main Contractors key control measures that
may be applied during the demolition and construction phase to assist with noise reduction:
Plant known to emit noise strongly in one direction would, where possible, be orientated so that
noise is directed away from noise sensitive areas.
Machines fitted with engine covers would be kept closed when not operating.
The height materials are placed either into or out of trucks would be limited where possible.
15
Page 16
Stationary and mobile equipment including offsite vehicles would be maintained regularly.
Operation would be limited to occur within the approved hours.
Continuous training through inductions and ongoing meetings would be provided for operators,
labourers, subcontractors and supervisors, to keep minimal noise impacts on local residents and
businesses top of mind.
Notifications of particularly noisy works would be undertaken prior to any planned works
commencing. This would include either personal or community meetings with adjoining
properties owners and/or tenants, this process will be undertaken in particular prior to
Demolition and Excavation phase of the project.
Regular servicing of equipment , or when an individual plant item are identified as being
particularly noisy, would be conducted.
A construction noise monitoring plan for the construction period prior to commencing works
would be designed and implemented.
All complaints in relation to noise would be monitored and recorded.
An onsite person would be identified as the contact point in the event of noise complaints with
contact details provided within the Construction Management Plan.
Monitoring
The Main Contractor may engage an independent acoustic / vibration consultant to install and monitor
noise and vibration logging equipment at suitable locations if necessary.
Noise monitoring
Noise monitoring may be undertaken to monitor and help minimize construction noise in order to avoid
discomfort to the building occupants and their cliental, the public, and occupants of surrounding
premises.
Locations for the monitors would be selected strategically based on assessment of the nearest
affected receivers. Should they be installed in an unsecure location, typically the noise monitoring
equipment would be housed in a steel cage to prevent damage, theft or vandalism.
Manned Noise Monitors
Manned noise monitoring may be undertaken to assess specific and new work methodologies
when required. Construction methods will be reviewed and changed if required.
Noise Reports may be prepared on an as required basis i.e. monthly.
Community Liaison will be carried out if required to address any community concerns regarding noise.
Vibration Monitoring
Vibration monitoring during the demolition and structural new build phases may be undertaken in
