Working at heights with man basket 4 4 16 2 3 6

Sandblasting is a special physical
process that uses a stream of sand
propelled by water or compressed air
and applied on a surface. Texas
sandblasting creates a powerful
abrasive force that can act on any
surface worked on using this air-
propelled material. There are
alternative sandblast materials that can
be used depending on the requirement
of the work. These include iron
globules, emery and powdered quartz.
It is the preparatory process done on different
kinds of surfaces before enameling, painting and
during the process of galvanizing. It is also a
popular cleaning solution for surfaces with hard
to remove grime and other debris that accumulate
in the concrete surfaces of buildings.
Working at heights ( fall ) 4 4 16 2 3 6
It should be noted that sandblast jobs
can be hazardous as workers are
exposed to toxic elements during the
process. There are a wide range of
harmful particles which may include
zinc or lead which are common
components in most commercial Texas
coatings. When you are doing
sandblast operations, steps should be
undertaken to protect yourself from
the harmful effects of the abrasive
materials being used. Protective gears
like goggles and appropriate clothing
are extremely important if you are
going to do sandblasting work. The
potential harm and injury that can be
brought on the person doing the
sandblasting operations makes it
extremely important that safety
regulations are observed before and
during any sandblasting operation.
  RISK ASSESSMENT FORM

Rigging , miscommunication between riggers 4 3 12 2 3 6

In any typical sandblasting operation,
and crane operators
the standard air breathing equipment
must be used. This is necessary as the
operators need to have a steady supply
of clean air in a workplace where there
is a heavy volume of toxic and harmful
contaminants. Before any sandblast
operation, it is imperative that you
inspect the air breathing apparatus to
make sure that it delivers a steady flow
of clean air. The operators are strongly
advised to remove the air breathing
equipment after operation only when
they at a safe distance from the work
area as harmful particulates remain
suspended in the air even after the
sandblast operations.
The crew must also wear standard issue gloves
and coveralls while within the sandblasting
workplace. It is also equally important to use the
prescribed footwear when doing sandblast
operations.
