The Highways Agency now includes in its render documentation a requirement that only firms listed in the Register of Qualified Steelwork Contractors (RQSC) for the type and value of the work to be undertaken will be employed for the fabrication and erection of bridgeworks.Companies wishing to he registered in the bridgework category which do not possess suitably complete bridgework experience may be registered as unclassified companies. Unclassified companies cannot be awarded subcategories that classify their capabilities. Such companies will need to fulfil all the requirements set out below, but where the rules are marked they may use contracts of comparable complexity for steelwork other than bridgework.
