A PRACTICAL QR GUIDE

QR codes for Construction Sites

Direct visitors to current induction and arrival instructions. A code can supplement site controls but cannot replace required signs or supervised safety procedures.

Dynamic: Induction documents and contacts change as work progresses.

What to put behind the code

A controlled visitor information page with site contact and revision date.

Print for the place it will live

Starting size: 10 × 10 cm. This is a starting point, not a scanning guarantee. Provide a safe stopping point outside vehicle routes.

Use rigid weather-resistant matte signage; replace dirty or abraded labels. Keep the four-module quiet zone intact and use dark modules on a light background. Read the print-size guide.

Where to place it

  • Visitor reception
  • Pedestrian entry information point
  • Induction handout

Mistakes to avoid

  • Replacing mandatory safety signs
  • Linking public visitors to internal plans
  • Placing codes beside moving plant

Before committing to a print run

Print a proof on the final material. Scan it with more than one phone, from the normal viewing position. Check the opened destination while signed out and confirm it leads to the intended page or action. A readable fallback address or contact detail helps visitors who cannot scan.

Questions about construction sites

Can a scan prove induction is complete?
No. Completion and identity checks belong in your induction process or training system.
What should I test before printing?
Scan the final construction sites artwork on more than one phone. Check the destination or imported details, the real viewing distance and the final printed surface.
