Accidents during construction projects also increases

project cost.
Indirect cost of insurance, inspection and regulation

are increasing rapidly due to accidents

So the project manager try to execute the project with

out any major accidents

1. Operators

2. Persons at Crane Site

 Make sure the crane

operator can see the: Rated Load Capacities Operating Speeds Special Hazard Warning or Instruction

 Refer to shipping ticket or other

documentation Ensure lift calculations are correct Ensure load is within load chart rating for boom length and load radius of crane Crane is rated by the maximum weight it will lift at a minimum radius and minimum boom length the further from its center point, the less it will lift

 Not level

Wind
Side loads Condition of wheels Lifting over the side Limits of wire rope, slings and lifting devices

Improper loads or speeds can result in the tipping of the crane

Unguarded Chain Drive

Broken Window

Make sure broken windows or other obstructions do not prevent the operator from seeing

Dont stand under suspended loads

Replace rope if there are 3 or more broken wires in one strand in one lay wear exceeds 1/3 of diameter.

Stay clear from power lines at least 10 feet

 Level the crane and ensure support surface is firm and able

to support the load Contact power line owners and determine precautions. Know the location and voltage of overhead power lines. Know the basic crane capacities, limitations, and job site restrictions, such as the location of power lines, unstable soil, or high winds. Make other personnel aware of hoisting activities. Barricade areas within swing radius. Ensure proper maintenance and inspections. Determine safe areas to store materials and place machinery.

 Scaffolding is a temporary structure used to support

people and material in the construction or repair of buildings and other large structures. It is usually a modular system of metal pipes (termed tubes in Britain), although it can be made out of other materials. Bamboo is still used in some Asian countries

In construction industry per year -5,00,ooo Related to scaffolding 10,000

 Supervisors are responsible to facilitate and/or provide

proper instruction to their workers on protection requirements and training Determine the type of scaffold required

1. Ensure grounding on a firm and level base. 2. Maintain the established minimum clearances from all power lines.

3. Provide a safe access ladder.

4. Ensure scaffold has a platform perimeter handrail.

5. Anchor or tie a free standing scaffold according to legislation.

 Minimize tools, material and debris on the platform. Ensure a hand line with a tool bag for tools is utilized. When working at 3m (10 ft.), fall protection system

must be used.

Follow scaffold safe work procedure step by step.

 Must be able support its own weight and 4 times

the maximum intended load. Scaffolds must be designed by a qualified person. They must and built and loaded within design.

 Scaffolds must have

base plates, even when setting on a concrete floor. Also, the lack of a base plate could damage the scaffold leg.

 Scaffold legs must be

set on base plates and adequate mudsills. There is no base plate and the scrap plywood is not adequate. The scaffold frame could penetrate the plywood.

 Scaffolds should

never be set on bricks, masonry blocks, etc. These are not structural elements and could crush under the scaffold load

Hydro-mobile

Frames

 Workers must be trained in Nature of electrical, fall, and falling object

hazards Correct procedures for protection of above Proper use of the scaffold Load capacities of scaffolds

BAD!

Must have an 18

platform. Must have guardrails or other fall protection

GOOD!

lack of oxygen Inhalation of toxic materials Fire Moving machinery near the edge of the excavation can cause a collapse Accidental severing of underground utility lines

 Excavating is one of the most hazardous construction operations Most accidents occur in trenches 5-15 feet deep

There is usually no warning before a cave-in

Employees should be protected from

cave-ins by using an adequately designed protective system Protective systems must be able to resist all expected loads to the system

A well-designed protective system Correct design of sloping and benching systems Correct design of support systems, shield systems, and other protective systems

Plus Appropriate handling of materials and equipment

Plus Attention to correct installation and removal Equals Protection of employees at excavations

 Shield - can be permanent or portable. Also known as trench box or trench shield. Shoring - such as metal hydraulic, mechanical or timber shoring system that supports the sides Sloping - form sides of an excavation that are inclined away from the excavation

 Slope or bench the sides of the

excavation, Support the sides of the excavation, or Place a shield between the side of the excavation and the work area

Cave-in Hazard

This excavation has inadequate support posts and egress access

Inadequate protective system

A trench shield was built around this work area

 Using hydraulic jacks the operator can easily drop the system into the hole Once in place, hydraulic pressure is increased to keep the forms in place Trench pins are installed in case of hydraulic failure

Hazardous Conditions
The weight and vibrations of the crane make this a very hazardous condition. They should not be working under this crane.

When water is present in an excavation it is extremely hazardous to enter

Note that these workers are not wearing hardhats to protect them from materials falling into the trench

Test excavations more than 4 feet before an employee enters the excavation for: Oxygen deficiency High combustible gas concentration High levels of other hazardous substances

A stairway, ladder, or ramp must be present in excavations that are 4 or more feet deep, and within 25 feet of the employees

This ladder does not meet the requirements of the standard

The ladder should extend 3 feet above the excavation

4 bolts minimum per

New bolt not made!= 2 anchor bolts

column Repair, replacement or field modification of anchor bolts must be approved by the structural engineer of record

Column splice

 All must be protected at heights greater than 2

stories or 30 feet, including connectors and deckers Between 15 and 30 feet: Fall protection required for all with exceptions for:
Deckers in controlled decking zone (CDZ) and Connectors Connectors must be provided and wear equipment necessary to be able to be tied-off, or be provided with other means of fall protection

 Means a system used to

arrest an employee in a fall from a working level. System consists of an anchorage, connectors, a body harness and may include a lanyard, deceleration device, lifeline or suitable combination of these.
