Stop rebuilding hoarding calculations from first principles for every project. This Excel tool produces a structured UK hoarding check in minutes — wind loading, post sizing, rail sizing, facing design, foundation design (Kentledge / Post-in-hole), connections, and a printable calc report traceable to TWf 2012:01 and BS 5975-2:2024.

What you get:

• Excel-based hoarding design workbook

• 12 workbook tabs with named ranges throughout

• Wind loading module using the BS 5975-2 simplified method

• Permissible stress design checks to TWf guidance

• Automatic pass/fail utilisation checks

• A4 print output with project header on every page

Verified against TWf 2012:01 Appendix E (Liverpool worked example). Peak velocity pressure, planting depth, foundation utilisation, kentledge mass, and screw capacities reproduce the published worked example exactly. Member forces sit within 2% — purely from wind-zone interpolation step differences.

Built for: structural engineers, TW designers, and TW coordinators producing site hoardings under CDM.
