IMPORTANT

This is a professional template, not a project-approved risk assessment. It must be reviewed, completed and adapted for the actual coordinated design, member geometry, item and opening schedules, reinforcement and tendon congestion, templates and restraints, lifting and hot-work arrangements, access, work at height, concrete-placement sequence, workforce, applicable legislation, standards and client requirements before use.

Every hazard, control and risk rating must be reviewed and approved by appropriately competent and authorised personnel.
