PROJECT

Removal of redundant asbestos insulated pipework running externally above the roof of the old boiler house.

Amiante STR LTD were instructed by the client to remove the Thermal insulation coating to a redundant pipe running externally from their old boiler House.

Due to the fibrous nature of the asbestos insulation this works required a notification to be submitted to the Health and Safety Executive 14 days prior to the works taking place. All removal works were also to be undertaken in fully controlled conditions with the use of polythene enclosures.

P E T EPeople, Environment, Tools and Exposure

PETE represents a process encompassing Health & Safety, risk assessment and project management. PETE assists in ensuring that all aspects of a project are managed safely.Below are a few of the PETE considerations taken into account on this project.

[This PETE is where those planning a project ask about the impact of People, Environment, Tools and Exposure to the project. Includes Client discussions, site surveying, estimating or consultancy].

Works required a substantial amount of planning, a full Risk assessment and method statement were produced, and further

more a 14-day notification to the HSE had to be submitted prior to our start date. Scaffolding & 4 stage Air Clearance tests

were also arranged in the planning stage.[This PETE is all of the people involved above who must have asbestos awareness training to ensure they are legally compliant for controlling the risks to People, Environment, Tools and Exposure].

The supply of power and water needed to be taken into consideration as the job was carried out externally. Injection

equipment was used to suppress the asbestos fibres coating the pipe.

[This PETE represents the safe removal of asbestos materials in compliance with current legislation and is also our reminder to assess all of the risks to our own staff of People, Environment, Tools and Exposure and not just the asbestos risk].

Working at height - the pipe was situated on the roof of the old boiler house therefore required scaffolding to be erected to

enable our operatives to remove it.
