Protection measures and related matters during the process of erecting and using scaffolding
Ensuring the safety of workers is crucial during the construction and use of scaffolding. Here are some basic protection measures and related matters:
1. Qualification requirements: The erection and dismantling of scaffolding should be carried out by professionals with corresponding qualifications.
2. Safety training: All operators should receive necessary safety production training before using scaffolding, understand the structure, usage methods, and safety operating procedures of scaffolding.
3. Plan development: Before setting up scaffolding, a scaffolding installation plan should be developed based on the characteristics of the project and the working environment, including installation height, installation form, material selection, safety protection measures, etc.
4. Material inspection: The scaffold materials used must be qualified products and should be regularly inspected and maintained to ensure that there is no damage, deformation, or other issues.
5. Safety protection measures:
-Anti slip measures: The scaffold board should be laid flat and anti slip measures should be taken.
-Protective railing: A protective railing should be installed on the outside of the scaffold, with a height generally not less than 1.2 meters.
-Safety net: A safety net should be installed on the outside of the scaffold to prevent materials or personnel from falling.
-Warning signs: Clear safety warning signs should be set up near the scaffolding.
6. Stability: The stability of the scaffold must be guaranteed, including the stability of the foundation and the overall stability of the frame.
7. Load limitation: The work platform and material stacking should be arranged reasonably according to the bearing capacity of the scaffold, and overloading is not allowed.
8. Work environment: The work environment should be kept clean and free of debris to avoid tripping or collision by workers.
9. Regular inspection: Scaffolds should be inspected regularly and any problems should be promptly addressed.
10. Emergency situation handling: Develop an evacuation plan for emergency situations, so that in case of a dangerous situation, operators can quickly evacuate.
11. Compliance with laws and regulations: The construction and use of scaffolding should strictly comply with relevant laws, regulations, standards and specifications, such as the "Regulations on Safety Production Management of Construction Projects".
12. Safety records: Establish safety production records for scaffolding, including installation, use, inspection, maintenance, and other related information.
