What Do You Need to Get Started?

 

Semi-permanent buildings are similar to permanent structures, with many of the same materials, and they must also follow local city laws and building codes. Choosing the correct type of temporary structures for your project is vital while avoiding risks, filing a permit application, and getting the approval, you need before you start.

Are there any potential risks to consider before you install fabric structures? You’ll want to assess these risks, custom changes, and how they will impact nearby properties. Do the temporary structures support environmental health? After removal, you’ll want to ensure these buildings do not adversely impact the land, waterways, and surrounding areas.

When you consult with a Sunbelt Rental expert, you’ll find everything you need to accommodate your site’s space and project needs.

 

Keeping Your Temporary Structures Visible and Secure

 

Keeping your temporary structures visible and safe for workers, visitors, and equipment is essential. There are many steps you can take to safeguard your construction site:

  • Add marquees, signs, and markings to make your structures visible.
  • Alert drivers and pedestrians around the area of the site and how to navigate around structures safely.
  • Define which areas are for authorized or restricted access.
  • Train all on-site staff on safety measures and how to assist visitors on-site.
  • Contain equipment, tools, and items to temporary structures to protect them.

It’s crucial to keep personal protective equipment on hand, along with safety guidelines, in and around temporary structures. Essentially, you’ll want to treat these short-term buildings and scaffolding as permanent structures by keeping everyone in and around the area safe and protected.
