We are delighted to announce that the first book from Dr Andy Painting and David England of Attis is to be published on 3rd February 2022. It is already available in electronic format to download. The book – An Effective Strategy for Safe Design in Engineering and Construction – is a comprehensive and definitive guide to approaching and embedding safety in the design of virtually any project.

As well as covering the core elements of design, such as regulatory requirements and practicality, the book also discusses more specialized topics such as risk management and human influences. Written in a engaging style, it is perfect for students and practitioners alike, but will also prove invaluable for clients, procurers, project managers and people working in construction and engineering.

The book highlights the usefulness and importance of using existing regulations and uses these as a framework for ensuring safety is at the heart of every type of construction, manufacture and engineering production. And because of its adherence to these regulations, the book is also invaluable for anyone who has a responsibility as a duty holder in construction.
