    1. TILT-UP WALL PANEL SAFETY

    2. AGENDA INTRODUCTION TO TILT PANEL WALLS AND WHY SAFETY IS A CONCERN INJURY STATISTICS OSHA REGULATIONS RECOMMENDED SAFETY PROCEDURES

    3. INTRODUCTION TILT PANEL WALLS WALLS ARE CAST ON-SITE ON THE FLOOR SLAB AND THEN RAISED INTO POSITION

    4. INTRODUCTION WALLS ARE HELD IN PLACE BY TEMPORARY STEEL TUBE BRACING UNTIL STRUCTURAL CONNECTIONS CAN BE MADE

    5. INTRODUCTION SAFETY CONCERNS ARE RAISED WHEN THERE IS INADEQUATE BRACING OR WHEN BRACING IS INSTALLED INCORRECTLY

    6. INTRODUCTION SAFETY IS ALSO AN ISSUE WHEN TEMPORARY BRACING IS REMOVED BEFORE ALL STRUCTURAL STEEL, GROUT AND POUR BACK STRIPS ARE COMPLETELY INSTALLED

    7. INTRODUCTION THERE ARE ALSO SAFETY ISSUES DURING LIFTING OF TILT PANEL WALLS CRANE CONNECTIONS MUST BE ENGINEERED TO HOLD THE WEIGHT OF THE WALL

    8. INTRODUCTION ONE OF THE MOST COMMON INJURIES FROM INSTALLATION OF TILT PANEL WALLS IS FALLING

    9. INJURY STATISTICS ACCORDING TO THE US BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS: NON-FATAL INCIDENCES (2006) 86,300 ANNUAL EMPLOYMENT IN PRECAST CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION 8.1 TOTAL RECORDABLE CASES OF INJURY 4.3 CASES RESULT IN DAYS AWAY FROM WORK

    10. INJURY STATISTICS ACCORDING TO THE US BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS: FATAL INCIDENCES (2006) 16 TOTAL FATALITIES 3 FROM TRANSPORTATION 3 FROM CONTACT WITH OBJECTS OR EQUIPMENT 10 FROM FALLS

    11. OSHA REGULATIONS 1926.704 – REQUIREMENTS FOR PRECAST CONCRETE TILT-UP WALL PANELS SHALL BE ADEQUATELY SUPPORTED TO PREVENT OVERTURNING AND TO PREVENT COLLAPSE UNTIL PERMANENT CONNECTIONS ARE COMPLETED

    12. OSHA REGULATIONS 1926.704 CONTINUED LIFTING INSERTS WHICH ARE EMBEDDED OR OTHERWISE ATTACHED MUST BE CAPABLE OF SUPPORTING ATLEAST TWO TIMES THE MAXIMUM INTENDED LOAD APPLIED TO THEM

    13. OSHA REGULATIONS 1926.704 CONTINUED LIFTING HARDWARE MUST BE CAPABLE OF SUPPORTING AT LEAST FIVE TIMES THE MAXIUMUM INTENDED LOAD APPLIED

    14. OSHA REGULATIONS 1926.704 CONTINUED NO EMPLOYEE SHALL BE PERMITTED UNDER PRECAST CONCRETE BEING LIFTED OR TILTED INTO POSITION EXCEPT THOSE EMPLOYEES REQUIRED FOR THE ERECTION OF THOSE MEMBERS

    15. SAFETY PROCEDURES EMPLOYERS SHALL INSTRUCT EACH EMPLOYEE IN THE RECOGNITION AND AVOIDANCE OF UNSAFE CONDITIONS AND THE REGULATIONS APPLICABLE TO HIS WORK ENVIRONMENT TO CONTROL OR ELIMINATE ANY HAZARD OR OTHER EXPOSURE TO INJURY

    16. SAFETY PROCEDURES EMPLOYERS SHOULD INSTRUCT SUPERVISORS AND WORKERS NOT TO REMOVE TEMPORARY BRACES UNTIL ROOF STRUCTURE AND/OR COLUMNS ARE IN PLACE TO STABILIZE THE BUILDING EMPLOYERS SHALL COMPLY WITH ALL OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR PRECAST CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION

    17. SAFETY PROCEDURES EMPLOYERS SHOULD ENSURE THAT TILT-UP PANELS ARE PROPERLY BRACED TO RESIST WIND AND LATERAL FORCES EMPLOYERS SHALL USE ONLY CERTIFIED WELDERS WHEN WELDING STEEL JOISTS TO EMBEDS AND INSERTS ON TILT-UP WALL PANELS

    18. SUMMARY PROPER ADHERENCE TO OSHA REGULATIONS AND ENSURING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF SAFETY PROCEDURES WILL HELP PREVENT INJURIES AND FATALITIES WHILE WORKING WITH TILT-UP WALL PANELS

    19. THE END
