may harm the historical buildings during construction are avoided. In addition, the storage of
the hazardous materials (especially materials of flammable, explosive, corrosive, etc. quality)
shall be away from the historical and cultural properties to reduce the fire risks and accident
risks. In the event that activities with fire risk are necessary to be carried out near the fire risk
vulnerable historical and cultural properties, special attention shall be shown and enough
equipment and employees shall be ready on site to take necessary measures.
During construction in historical and cultural properties (especially in activities performed
nearby the sensitive historical structures) the Contractor shall choose the best application
methods to keep the vibration level to a minimum. The construction site sourced drainage
piping shall be built in such a way that ensures the prevention of water inflow and dampness
to the historical elements. The contact of the cement mixture and leaching water with the
historical elements shall be avoided at all costs.
Public Consultation and Disclosure
