With over 70 years of combined experience within the scaffolding and Falsework industry Reactive Design Ltd can help your company fulfill its Health and Safety obligations. We are experts in traditional tube and fit scaffolds along with the wide range of system scaffolds thus providing comprehensive designs to suit each individual contract. All our designs are covered by our professional indemnity insurance up to £1,000,000 for your piece of mind. Our services include:
Detailed Designs:
Our designs are created using the latest 2D software and are colour coded to ensure complete understanding.
All conform to the latest regulations and codes of practice and can be provided as PDF files emailed directly to the client.
Hard copies are also forwarded to ensure complete continuity with record retention on site.
Calculations and Risk Assessments:
Produced in conjunction with the detailed designs our risk assessments provide the detailed analysis on the fit for purpose of the proposed designs. Ensuring detailed analysis is performed to meet current legislation combined with the relevant safety factors.
Wind analysis to BS 6399 and other environmental factors are included for your piece of mind.
We use the latest software and traditional pen and paper to produce detailed risk assessments specific to the projects needs.
Design Checking Services:
If for any reason you require a drawing and assessment produced by another organisation to be checked, then we can provide this service. We also provide checking requests for form ‘C’ approval as required by Network Rail.
Tie testing:
We provide a tie testing service whereby we physically test installed ties and provide test reports detailing conformation of tie loading/duty and pattern.
Scaffold Inspection and Handover:
We can provide site visits whereby we inspect the erected scaffold and provide a report or simple certification of the scaffolds integrity
