Learning from Bad Practice


This page is designed to show how we can learn from bad practice.

Here you will find examples of poor design that have been discovered in practice.
The purpose of this section is to discover mistakes made previously in practice, and how they can be rectified and improved upon.

We are pleased to be able to add our first three examples.

You are invited to take a look at them and feedback any comments via the forum link below.

Learning from Bad Practice - Case Study Examples.

1. Staircase Base Fixings. - How a simple fixing detail change can prevent poor practice.

2. Structural Abuse. - Valve or Column, which has the right of way?

3. Quicker Steel Drilling. - A little thought in setting out can cut production time significantly.

4. Locking off an Isolator Switch. - The correct procedure can prevent a dangerous situation.

5. Support of Heavy Plant. - Are bins structurally sound?

6. The Quickest Way to the Top. - Is not necessarily the best!

If you have any examples of learning from bad practice, or how you have rectified poor practice, please contact us.
