2. 8 1 Method of Delivery Steel will be delivered to site in packs or bundles that have plastic banding to hold the steel in place during transit They will be placed on bearers and generally delivered on open sided flatbed vehicles The bearers will assist in passing through chains or slings for lifting with a crane or to provide access for the forks of a telehandler However there may be requirements for curtain sided vehicles or self offloading HIAB vehicles It is entirely the Installers responsibility to communicate the site specific offloading method to Kingspan along with any deviation from the above for consideration evaluation and agreement 8 2 Safe Handling For any given site a specific manual handling plan and risk assessment should be developed by the Installer that will evaluate the risks attached with handling SFS sections and equipment Specifically care must be taken when snipping the bands from a pack of steel as the material is likely to spring apart as the band is removed SFS stud and track will always have sharp edges so gloves must be worn and care taken when moving product around The steel lengths will be supplied as ordered in lengths up to 10m any longer by prior arrangement only This can lead to instability in handling with an uneven centre of gravity and difficulty in handling through restricted spaces An assessment should be made before any material is ordered to determine the optimum size that can be
