Abstract: Our works are frequently subject to the effect of climate action both on construction or in preventive maintenance. This is typically due to storms, winds and in some areas tides. Climate conditions during construction and maintenance works have a great impact on the work schedule and can be the source of major cost, delays, contractual issues and in extreme conditions and during flooding: property damage and life threatening situations. The aim of this paper is to assess the level of scientific evidence on related risk during construction works; to summarize recommendations for best practice and case studies related to climate and to encourage cross-sector knowledge sharing of successes and lessons learned from risk assessment. (e. g. LLatas 2020; RISK DURING THE CONSTRUCTION OF MARINE WORKS).
