This Competency Requirement document specifies the performance criteria, underpinning knowledge, range and context for the design, training and assessment of the Design for Safety Professionals (DfSP) Course. Learners of this course will gain the knowledge and skills for fulfilling the roles of the construction in accordance with the guideline on Design for Safety and Health in Buildings and Structures.

TOPICThe NEC conditions of contract and how they can contribute to collaborative contracting in Singapore.SYNOPSISThe NEC is a family of contracts document for various types of procurement of projects and services. They are rightly being considered for use in Singapore. The course will focus on the NEC Engineering and Construction Contract (ECC). It will include:An overview and summary of NEC and why it is so different from traditional forms.A high-level comparison of NEC and FIDIC contracts.An overview of the parts of the contract and the process of putting an ECC tender document together.An introduction to the key elements of ECC contract management including:oearly warningoprogrammeocompensation events A discussion on what need to happen for NEC to work in Singapore.OBJECTIVESAt the end of the session participants should:Understand the principles of NECBe able to advise a client on contract strategy and the use of the various options in the ECCUnderstand the work involved in preparing an ECC tender documentUnderstand in principle what will be involved in ECC contract management.

Design risk can be managed effectively by identifying the hazard and controlling the risk through Design for Safety (DfS) reviews during project development.Designing for safety should start at the early stage of a project whereby key stakeholders will review the design progressively to identify hazards on the building layout, materials used and construction methods etc. so as to enhance the safety of the project for construction as well as operation and maintenance.

Course SynopsisThe course provides an overview of computational Building Information Modelling (BIM) and how it is applied in Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing (MEP) drafting and modelling processes. Revit Dynamo will be used for automation and optimisation of the MEP modelling processes.Course ObjectiveThis course will equip participants with essential Computational BIM Dynamo skills in MEP BIM design and documentation processes. Participants will learn how to create Dynamo scripts to interact with Revit elements, parameters, excel spread sheets and to automate the documentation and the design processes. Course Topics1. Dynamo Basics2. Managing Lists & Data3. Interacting with Revit Parameters4. Interacting with Excel5. Documentation Example6. Python Scripts for Dynamo
