Project Management Table

Following an extended period of consultation, the Project Management Table has been published. The Project Management table consists of Uniclass 2015 codes which provide a structure for organising digital information. Also included is a list of roles and personnel which relate to those in PAS1192:2. Together with the recent revisions to the Activities table, the Project Management Table provides assistance for organising office processes. The Project Management Codes are of benefit to anyone in construction industry from clients, asset managers to designers and installers who are involved in designing, constructing or managing construction projects or built assets.

Those who have downloaded or used the previous ‘draft status’ table should replace with this first published version which has been substantially amended to reflect feedback from a range of industry professionals including Royal Holloway College, Environment Agency, Highways England, Ministry of Justice and Ministry of Defence.

October 2017 Update

We continue to liaise regularly with a growing number of individuals and organisations using the tables, to provide further information and assist with requests for new codes. The October 2017 Update features minor changes to six tables in response to user requests. Our work with the manufacturers who supply Transport for London has continued. Further Uniclass 2015 codes for the products supplied for the maintenance of London Underground have been added which will benefit others working in rail. In particular we are working with the ICT department to add codes for train dispatch and monitoring. We are also discussing drainage with representatives of Highways England and some new codes have been added as a result, particularly some locations.

Feedback

We are grateful to all the organisations we have worked with for their input to the Project Management and other tables. As we share details of this activity, industry professionals can learn more about who else is using the tables, for what purpose and the range of changes to expect and why. The work of maintaining and enhancing Uniclass 2015 to continually support the needs of those operating in the built environment is an ongoing exercise. We welcome comment and input from all sectors in the construction industry via uniclass2015@theNBS.com.

Visqueen launches Ultimate Self Adhesive Membrane for hydrocarbon and VOC-contaminated sites

The construction industry faces growing challenges when building on increasingly complex brownfield sites. Alongside the need for effective waterproofing, developers and contractors must now address a wider range of ground contaminants, including hydrocarbons, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and hazardous ground gases, while maintaining programme efficiency and installation quality. Against this backdrop, Visqueen has expanded its gas protection and waterproofing portfolio with the launch of Visqueen Ultimate Self Adhesive Membrane, a new hydrocarbon and VOC-resistant self-adhesive tanking membrane. Developed as the latest addition to the Visqueen non-foil gas barrier range, the new membrane combines proven gas barrier and waterproofing performance to help specifiers address multiple site challenges with a single solution.

Siderise: Helping to bridge the gap between Gateway 2 approval and on-site fire protection

While the new building safety regime hasn’t fundamentally changed what requirements higher-risk buildings (HRBs) must meet to comply with the Building Regulations, it has significantly increased the breadth, depth and volume of evidence that must be supplied to demonstrate this. As a result, project teams have had to adapt the way they work and even look beyond their roles to understand how their actions may impact the next Dutyholder in the chain. For specifiers, this can include considering what supporting services are offered with life safety-critical elements to enable correct design, installation and maintenance. Early engagement with manufacturer technical specialists can help identify any practical challenges that may arise onsite. Then, during construction, these services can help support the translation of design intent into reality so that buildings are safe for occupation.
