Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
Each operation of a construction job should be planned in
						advance. Such planning is needed at all stages of the project. It should start
						with the estimators, prior to preparations of bids, and continue throughout the
						job, with superintendents and foremen doing their share.
Construction planning will eliminate some accidents
						automatically, by creating a well-organized job. But expert planning gives
						special attention to safety, and thus is highly effective in making the
						operation safe and efficient.
1. Safe
					 Access and Movement
(a) Workers
(1) Adequate work areas.
(2) Adequate walkways and runways.
(3) Adequate ladders, stairways, or
					 elevators.
(4) Work areas and
					 passageways clear of rubbish, debris, nails, etc.
(5) Protection for floor and roof
					 openings.
(6) Adequate
					 illumination.

(2) Methods of loading and unloading.
(A) Adequate space.
(B) Proper auxiliary equipment, i.e., power
					 shovels, cranes, rigging, fork lifts, etc.
(b) Tools and Equipment
(1) Repair, maintenance, and care.
(2) Inspection.
(3) Adequate supplies of the right tools for
					 each part of job.
(c)
					 Workers and Foremen
(1) Proper job
					 placement.
(2) Adequate training
					 and supervision.
(3) Adequate
					 manpower.
(4) Plans for maintaining
					 interest in safety.
(A) Safety bulletins,
					 record charts, and posters.
(B)
					 Recognition for groups or individuals with safety records.
(C) Investigation and reporting on all
					 accidents.
(D) Knowledge of safety
					 orders.
(E) Safety meetings.

					 operated near tops of cuts, banks, and cliffs if employees are working
					 below.
41. Tractors, bulldozers,
					 scrapers and carryalls shall not operate where there is possibility of
					 overturning in dangerous areas like edges of deep fills, cut banks, and steep
					 slopes.
42. When loading where
					 there is a probability of dangerous slides or movement of material, the wheels
					 or treads of loading equipment, other than that riding on rails, should be
					 turned in the direction which will facilitate escape in case of danger, except
					 in a situation where this position of the wheels or treads would cause a
					 greater operational hazard.

(2) The
					 method recommended by the manufacturer for cleaning and sterilizing.
After following any of these procedures, the equipment

(The following are not suggested as a substitute for

Nails
Safe load lateral resistance in pounds equal eight (8)
						times the pennyweight.
1-6 d nail = 8 x 6, or 48 pound
1-6 d nail = 8 x 8, or 64 pounds
1-10 d nail = 8 x 10, or 80 pounds
Manila Rope
Safe load in tons equals diameter in inches squared. Not
						accurate in sizes larger than one inch (1").
1" rope = 1 x 1, or 1 ton safe load
1/2" rope = ½ x ½, or 
						1/ Ss
						4 ton safe load
For sisal rope, decrease safe loads by one-third
Plow-steel Cable
Safe load in tons is eight (8) times the diameter in
						inches squared.
1/2" rope = ½ x ½ = ¼ x 8 = 2
						tons
Open Eye Hook
Safe load in tons is diameter of eye in inches
						squared.
2" hook, 2 x 2 = 4 tons
Shackle
Safe load in tons is diameter of pin in one-fourth inches
						(1/4") squared and divided by three (3).
