Title
Code of practice for falsework
Leitfaden fuer Traggerueste

British Standards Institution
Publication Date:
Mar 15, 1996
Scope:
Gives recommendations for the methods of design, erection and use of temporary structures used to support permanent structures until such time as the latter becomes self-supporting. Provides recommendations on the design of falsework using permissible stress methods and on procedures for the successful management of work on site, including the appointment of a falsework coordinator. BS EN 12812:2004 now exists in parallel with this standard and specifies performance requirements for the design of falsework in accordance with one of three classes: A, B1 and B2. Limit state design methods are specified for design classes B1 and B2. It does not provide guidance for the structural design of Class A. BS EN 12812:2004 does not provide guidance on procedures necessary for the successful management of work on site.
