Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about plumber RAMS

Do I need a hot works permit in my RAMS?

If your job involves soldering, brazing or any open flame, a hot works permit is best practice and often required on commercial sites. RAMS Builder includes hot works controls in the plumbing hazard library.

What controls should I list for blowtorch soldering?

Include fire blanket behind the joint, a suitable fire extinguisher within reach, combustible materials cleared, and a fire watch period after work. These are all pre-loaded in RAMS Builder.

What should a plumbing RAMS include for water isolation?

Document the isolation point, method of isolation, who is responsible, notification to building occupants, and the procedure for restoring supply. RAMS Builder templates cover this.
