How to integrate the regulations in force into your file of works executed (DOE) for a compliant construction site?

During a construction project, the project owner is responsible for carrying out the work and ensuring that it complies with current regulations. One of the tools that allows it to ensure this respect is the file of works executed (DOE). But how can you integrate the regulations into this document and ensure the compliance of your site?

What is a DOE?

The executed works file is a document which brings together all the information relating to a construction project, and in particular the technical specifications, the procedures for carrying out the work and the administrative documents. It is essential to ensure that the works executed comply with the specifications and regulations in force especially if the work concerns structural work or structural renovation such as that of a frame.

How to integrate regulations into the DOE?

To integrate the regulations into the executed works file, you must ensure that all technical, administrative and legal information is well integrated and up to date. First of all, you must ensure that the specific technical clauses (CCTP) are up to date and integrated into the DOE. The CCTP is a document which details the technical and administrative specifications of the construction project and which must be validated by the project owner. It must be updated regularly to ensure that the work complies with current regulations. You must also integrate documents related to public or private markets. These documents are essential to ensure that the work is carried out according to the specifications and regulations in force. You must also integrate the work reception file (DRT). The DRT is a document which details the results of the tests and checks carried out at the end of the work and which ensures that the site complies with specifications and regulations.

How to ensure site compliance?

Once all the necessary information has been included in the work carried out file, you must ensure that the site complies with the regulations in force. To do this, you must carry out regular inspections and tests. These inspections and tests are essential to ensure that the work complies with specifications and regulations. You also need to ensure that changes to the project comply with regulations. The modifications must be detailed and included in the file of the works executed in order to ensure that the site always complies with the regulations in force.
