• Proper Use of Covered Walkway

Debris shall not be accumulated on the roof of the covered walkway. It shall not be used for any other purposes such as storage of building materials and equipment inside or above the covered walkway.

If it is intended to build a temporary contractor’s shed over the covered walkway, it must be structurally independent of the covered walkway. The roof of the contractor’s shed shall sustain the design load criteria for the catch platform or covered walkway whichever is applicable.

The roof of the covered walkway shall be pitched inwards to better contain the debris and for roof drainage. Upstand edge board of 1.1 m or higher measured from the toe of roof line of the catch platform’s outer edge shall be provided to retain the fallen debris.
