Construction Safety Talks
Windy Days                         Some Things To Know Before You Give Your Talk.
                                   As a supervisor, you know that sudden gusts of wind can cause
No. 42
                                   unexpected accidents. If high winds are expected, tell your crew
                                   they should be on the lookout for building material or other debris
                                   that can be picked up by the wind and blown around the job.
    How This Talk                  Do not operate material/personnel hoists in winds exceeding 35
    Applies To My
        Crew:
                                   miles per hour unless manufacturer's specifications say it is ok.
                                   Your crew should also check the manufacturer's instructions
                                   before operating cranes in high wind situations.
                                   Stop work on scaffolds during high wind conditions, especially if
                                   the scaffold is wrapped with a tarp. Notify the crew of the wind
                                   speed.
                                   Extreme care must be taken when picking up large sections of
                                   plywood, dry wall, or similar flat materials, as the material can act
                                   as a sail. Tag lines should be used when hoisting loads with large
                                   flat surfaces.
                                   A 20 to 30 mile per hour wind can pick up a piece of scrap material
                                   and carry it as far out as the height from which it came. For
                                   instance, a piece from a 20 foot scaffold can hit a person standing
                                   20 feet away while the same piece coming off a high rise building
                                   may travel almost a full city block.
                                   Scraps of plywood and sheet metal cause the most trouble, but a
                                   strong wind can pick up a loose two by ten foot deck plank and
                                   drop it off a scaffold.
                                   The wind can also whip up clouds of dust and reduce visibility.
                                   Drivers and operators of heavy equipment should slow down
                                   accordingly. Provisions should be made for dust control.
                                   Finally, high winds can pick up sparks from open fires and cause
                                   whipping tarpaulins to overturn heaters. The resulting fires have
                                   caused many severe burn injuries and damage to buildings under
                                   construction.

     Demonstrate methods to tie down materials that could be blown around the job by high
     winds.
     Questions You Can Use To Get Them Talking:

              Who is responsible for securing the job site from blow off conditions during high
               wind situations?

              What are the particular hazards that high winds can cause on this job?

              What can we do as individuals to control these hazards and protect ourselves
               and other people?

              Has anyone ever had an accident - or know of one - involving high winds?
