WHEN TO INCORPORATE RISERSAFE®

For maximum benefits, the Modular Riser Flooring System should be incorporated as the buildings riser maintenance platform in RIBA Stage 2.

The RIBA Plan of Work organises the process of briefing, designing, delivering, maintaining, operating and using a building into eight stages. It is a framework for all disciplines on construction projects and should be used solely as guidance for the preparation of detailed professional services and building contracts.

Use

Projects span from Stage 1 to Stage 6; the outcome of Stage 0 may be the decision to initiate a project and Stage 7 covers the ongoing use of the building.

Stage Outcomeat the end of the stage

The best means of achieving the Client Requirements confirmed

If the outcome determines that a building is the best means of achieving the Client Requirements, the client proceeds to Stage 1

Project Brief approved by the client and confirmed that it can be accommodated on the site

Architectural Concept approved by the client and aligned to the Project Brief

The brief remains “live” during Stage 2 and is derogated in response to the Architectural Concept

Architectural and engineering information Spatially Coordinated

All design information required to manufacture and construct the project completed

Stage 4 will overlap with Stage 5 on most projects

Manufacturing, construction and Commissioning completed

There is no design work in Stage 5 other than responding to Site Queries

Building handed over, Aftercare initiated and Building Contract concluded

Building used, operated and maintained efficiently

Stage 7 starts concurrently with Stage 6 and lasts for the life of the building

Core Tasksduring the stage

Project Strategies might include:– Conservation (if applicable)– Cost– Fire Safety– Health and Safety– Inclusive Design– Planning– Plan for Use– Procurement– SustainabilitySee RIBA Plan of Work 2020 Overview for detailed guidance on Project Strategies

Core RIBA Plan of Work terms are defined in the RIBA Plan of Work 2020 Overview glossary and set in Bold Type. Further guidance and detailed stage descriptions are included in the RIBA Plan of Work 2020 Overview. © RIBA 2020

Stage Boundaries:Stages 0-4 will generally be undertaken one after the other.Stages 4 and 5 will overlap in the Project Programme for most projects.Stage 5 commences when the contractor takes possession of the site and finishes at Practical Completion. Stage 6 starts with the handover of the building to the client immediately after Practical Completion and finishes at the end of the Defects Liability Period.Stage 7 starts concurrently with Stage 6 and lasts for the life of the building.

Planning Note:Planning Applications are generally submitted at the end of Stage 3 and should only be submitted earlier when the threshold of information required has been met. If a Planning Application is made during Stage 3, a mid-stage gateway should be determined and it should be clear to the project team which tasks and deliverables will be required. See Overview guidance.

Procurement:The RIBA Plan of Work is procurement neutral – See Overview guidance for a detailed description of how each stage might be adjusted to accommodate the requirements of the Procurement Strategy.

Examples of RiserSafe® being installed on site and a visual inspection being made by our team:

Q. WHAT IS RISERSAFE®?

PATENTED CAST-IN SAFETY SYSTEM • Satisfies Joint COP ‘fire prevention on construction sites’• Provides maximum area for services to pass through• Individual pre-cut holes on floor plate with cover plates,

eliminating the need for main contractor to manage• Can be used as part of the M&E permanent fixing system• Shortens project programme• Lowers project costs• Reduces carbon footprint• Permanent maintenance flooring

RiserSafe® is protected by Ambar Kelly’s patent GB 2429021B

A. It is the building’s final maintenance platform which is simply cast in at the start of the project, eliminating the risk of falls and fire.

3D MODELLING BY OUR IN-HOUSE TEAM

The increased productivity on site is the result of pulling the multitude of designs from different disciplines into our model as part of the product detailing, reducing on site challenges and providing a smooth, efficient and safe construction process, where all the problems could be detailed out before they ever reach construction.

1. STEEL FRAME 2. UNITS POSITIONED ON STEEL FRAME NO MEP SERVICES

The 3D Model illustrations show when our team review the models received, which are plotted into our modelling system in collaboration with the designers of the building. They are adjusted so clashes are irradicated and do not occur during construction, reducing last minute issues, making installation faster, safer and more efficient.

We incorporate the MEP requirements in conjunction with horizontal and vertical fire protection to meet the five standards that are associated with the riser shafts (zone). This has been proven to reduce construction time by up to two months.

CREATES A BARRIER STOPPING THE SPREAD OF SMOKE AND FLAME

Modular riser flooring has been tested and proven to have a fire resistance to a 1000°C for 90 minutes with no loss of integrity during the test, demonstrating an excellent horizontal barrier to the spread of smoke and flame where used.

VALUE V COST

The RiserSafe® system is not just a fall protection product, it is a 3D Modelled modular riser flooring system which reduces risk through design by incorporating all the following trade interfaces into one single option.

Therefore what appears an expensive entry price is actually an all-encompassing price fixed for the duration of the project.

The value is based on costs across the whole project, as identified above, providing a single solution with no hidden extras.

QUALITY CONTROL MANUFACTURING STANDARDS

CARBON NEUTRALITY

Ambar Kelly has worked with Carbon Footprint Limited to become a carbon neutral organisation.

We calculate the captured carbon content for every project and offset this, making our RiserSafe® offering carbon neutral to projects.

A Cradle-to-Grave Life-Cycle Assessment has been carried out on RiserSafe®, which is an assessment of the environmental impacts of our product during its life-cycle. It incorporates the analysis of raw materials, manufacture, transport, usage and disposal.

As part of our ongoing commitment to the environment, for every RiserSafe® unit that is manufactured, we calculate the captured carbon content and offset this value at the end of the project. Our customers are then provided with a certificate demonstrating this, which can be used towards environmental credentials for the overall scheme.
