Temporary Works Resource Hub
Free notes, links and blank templates for temporary works coordinators, supervisors and site teams. The pages it points to already exist. Nothing here is a design, a check or a permit.
Last reviewed 27 October 2026. Drawn from pages already published on this site.
Key points
- This hub links to the free material already on the site. It does not replace those pages.
- The tools index at /tools remains TWCD's own tools and paid outputs. This hub is the free learning section.
- No sponsor is appointed. Design, checking, quote and service pages, and paid or signed outputs, do not carry sponsor marks.
- Checklists are blank templates for learning. They are not for construction.
Guides
What counts as temporary works, the design brief, check categories 0–3, BR 470, and the BS 5975:2024 compliance article.
