Frequently asked questions
- What RPE do I need for spray-foam insulation (open-cell or closed-cell)?
- An air-fed visor compliant with EN 14594, plus a disposable Type 5/6 coverall. Spray-foam contains MDI isocyanate, which COSHH 2002 reg 11 treats as a respiratory sensitiser with no safe threshold — half-mask RPE is not adequate. The exclusion zone is the room itself plus a documented re-occupation hold (typically 24 hours for closed-cell), and both must appear in the RAMS method sequence.
- How does PAS 2035 retrofit change what the RAMS has to cover?
- PAS 2035:2019 requires a named Retrofit Coordinator sign-off on the install pack, a named PAS 2030 installer for each measure, a dwelling-level Whole House Plan, and explicit treatment of interstitial condensation, ventilation (Building Regs Part F) and fire-stopping across compartment lines. The RAMS must cross-reference the Retrofit Coordinator and the assessor's risk path — a generic 'EWI install' RAMS submitted on a PAS 2035 funded job will be rejected.
- Is the output accepted by principal contractors?
- Yes. Riskora generates professional documents in the standard UK format with risk matrices, control measures, and method statements that principal contractors expect.
- Can I edit the document after generating it?
- Yes. Every section is editable. Add, remove, or modify hazards, controls, and method steps to match your specific site conditions.
