REEVE, CBE President 1985-86 Preamble There is a word which was rarely heard only a few years ago but which is used nowadays with such frequency that it is in danger of becoming unfashionable. Its use seems in no way to be inhibited by the fact that it does not appear in many of the dictionaries we all use, but many of us recognise that the response time of the lexicographer canbe distinctly extended...

DAVIES* consulting engineer's approach There is little doubt that a major improvement is needed in the systems used by consulting engineers both to protect the well-being of their staff and toensure that their designs may be safely constructed and are safe for use by the public. One firm of consultants, attempting to come to grips with the problem, is convinced that the establishment of an attitude of hazard awareness among all staff is the best way of avoiding mistakes and reducing the accident and near-miss record of designers...

DODD, FIOSH, M(Amer)SSE* The changing state of the construction industry is resulting in changes in the way in which contracts are awarded, with a definite trend towards management contracts. Section 3 of the Health and Safety at Work Act places obligations on employers to undertake work in a manner which will not cause risks to other persons and, with a higher proportion of subcontract work now being undertaken on sites, there is an inevitable increase in the dilliculty of co-ordinating the operations of the various subcontractors...

TIETZ, BScEng, FICE, FIStructE, MConsE This Paper deals with those aspects of safety which are relevant to structures. Safety in structures results from many factors, not immediately related to accidents. In a highly diversified industry producing very complicated end results, it is important that the choice of materials, the design, construction and proper use of the completed structure all have safety in mind as important ingredients to a satisfactory product; yet balance between the component aspects of the design is essential...

Since the early 1970s traffic management systems at major road works on motorways have come to mean contra-flow: Opposing streams traffic sharing the same carriageway. Prior of to that time most road works were carried out using lane closure techniques. However, increasing traffic volumes which exceeded the capacityof such simple systems led to greater road user delay so that systems which provided a greater number of traffic lanes had to be developed for major works sites...
