House projects, some minor delays have created a slowing of the construction process, the worst of these has been the weather and the insistent rains, however CCS are managing to stay on top with both houses showing progress under the circumstances.

Now the scaffold is in position for both houses work can commence erecting the trusses and purlins for the roof structure. This process is critical to the weather proofing and stablising of the house. Additional bracing added in the roof system serves to strengthen the lower frame work, and finally once the roof cladding is fixed to the roof frame, temporary braces supporting the framed walls can be removed.
The risk of injury is elevated during this process, awareness is essential when working on scaffolds and any roof structure.
The H&S routine through our 'Toolbox meetings' each day highlights the importance of 'Site Safety'. To date CCS have contributed to the list of unplanned accidents on site with 2 recorded incidents. The scaffolding for our houses remain assembled until the exterior cladding is complete and painted, therefore we will continue to operate at height and risk for some time and 'Caution' is required.
