Temporary Works Design and Installation for Safe and Reliable Construction

At Pro Steel Engineering, we provide expert temporary works services that ensure projects can be built, strengthened, or dismantled safely and efficiently.

Based in Pontypool, South Wales, and operating across the UK and internationally, we design, fabricate, and install temporary structures that support construction while protecting people, assets, and the environment.

Our team understands that no two sites are the same. Space restrictions, logistics challenges, safety requirements, and live operational environments all demand tailored solutions. With decades of experience, we deliver practical, innovative, and compliant temporary works for some of the UK’s most complex projects.

Benefits of Pro Steel Engineering's Temporary Works

Temporary works are critical to project safety. We design and install solutions that protect workers, the public, and surrounding assets at every stage.

Every site is different. We develop temporary works systems tailored to specific project needs, from restricted spaces to high-load environments.

Our in-house design and fabrication teams allow us to deliver rapid solutions without delays, helping projects stay on time and on budget.

We are accredited to BS EN 1090 Execution Class 4 and ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001, giving clients assurance of compliance and quality at every stage.

What Are Temporary Works?

Temporary works are the engineered structures and systems required to enable permanent works to be constructed. They can support, strengthen, or provide safe access to structures during different phases of a project.

Examples include:

Propping and shoring systems
Temporary bridges and platforms
Falsework to support structures during construction
Access walkways and scaffolding
Protection and support for existing assets
Temporary lifting and installation aids

At Pro Steel Engineering, we take care of the design, fabrication, installation, and removal of temporary works, ensuring every solution is safe, practical, and efficient.
