Chapter 8

[pablo]

I was under the impression that there are no short courses (1-2 days) that cover the basics of chapter 8 (temporary works), only 2-3 week courses that covers the whole thing for duel carrideways etc, but reading a recent thread it seems that some of you guys have done a course along these lines.

 

Any info would be much appreciated...

There is a City & Guilds one day course in Signing, Lighting and Guarding which covers Chapter 8 Streetworks - I did mine in Watton so not too far to travel for you and it's more or less unfailable!!!

Nice one Tony, will give that a look...I've had the guys out from watton before on a couple of jobs, didn't even give it a thought to ask them...!!

that's the course i've done, i think it was only a day. try and get the monitoring part of it too. i have a feeling that i'm only allowed to put them up, then take them down again cos i dont have the monitoring bit too?

Did it in Birmingham...1 day. V easy and I nodded off at one point:closedeyes:

Not exactly local to you, but you could try Training Courses from Civil Engineering to Health and Safety - Skills Training Centre

Tis where I done mine. I think if you can spell your name without too much trouble you should get through no problem
