Implementação de coordenação de segurança e saúde em projeto em obras de reabilitação

The safety coordination during the design phase still remains a challenge at several levels, especially when dealing with refurbishment projects. Either by lack of knowledge of the existing construction (for intervention), and its surroundings, or by the protection of the cultural and historical patrimonial values, or even, by the well known difficulty that the safety coordinator has, in his intervention in any project. The incorporation of the general principles of prevention, the difficulty of the coordinator to be heard by all the actors, to anticipate all risks associated in the construction and the prevision of the respective preventive measures, those are some examples of the obstacles that the design safety coordinator will face. This article intends to give some good practices of safety coordination acts, list all that it encompasses, and emphasizing its importance.

“Safety and health” as a criterion in the choice of tunneling method

Risk management is of paramount importance in the success of tunnelling works and is linked to the tunnelling method and to the constraints of the works. Sequencial Excavation Method (SEM) and Tun-nel Boring Machine (TBM) method have been competing for years. This article, part of a wider study on the influence of the â Safety and Healthâ criterion in the choice of method, reviews the existing literature about the criteria usually employed to choose the tunnelling method and on the criterion â Safety and Healthâ . This crite-rion is particularly important, due to the financial impacts of work accidents and occupational diseases. This article is especially useful to the scientific and technical community, since it synthesizes the relevance of each one of the choice criteria used and it shows why â Safety and Healthâ must be a criterion in the decision mak-ing process to choose the tunnelling method.
