Join us for a practical and engaging session that looks beyond the theory of temporary works engineering and focuses on what is genuinely critical on construction projects. Through real-world examples and lessons learned, we'll explore how to identify high-risk temporary works, understand what makes them critical, and examine effective approaches to managing them.
Whether you're a graduate engineer, designer, contractor, site engineer or project manager, this session will provide practical insights that can be applied immediately to your own projects. We'll discuss common challenges, key risks and proven strategies for reducing risk and improving project outcomes.
This is an excellent opportunity to learn from industry experience, exchange perspectives with fellow professionals, and leave with practical takeaways that will help you focus your efforts where they can have the greatest impact.
