SAFETY IN ExCAVATIONF. SAFETY MEASURES IN DEMOLITION OF THE BUILDINGS(a) Demolition operations should begin with by removing glass in doors

and windows, loose objects and projecting parts. Workers should not be deployed at different levels unless adequate precautions are taken to ensure safety of those deployed levels. Demolition work should begin at the top of the structure and process downwards. Masonry concrete and other dismantled materials should not be allowed to accumulate in quantities which may endanger the stability of any floor or structural support. Part of the structures, where necessary should be adequately shored, braced or otherwise supported. If the structure is to be demolished by explosive, all safety measures pertaining to explosives such as transport, storage, handling, loading firing etc. should be strictly adhered to. Foundation walls serving as retaining walls to support of adjoining structures should not be demolish until the adjoining structure have been under pinned or braced or earth supported by sheet pilling.

(b) Stairs with hand railing should be kept in place as long as practicable to provide access and egress. If the work of demolition is continued in height, all passageways, stairs and other parts of the structure where the workers have to pass and also to work should be adequately lit. Workers should wear strictly safety belts, safety helmets and hand glove.

(c) If the demolition is carried out by machines such as power shovels, bulldozers etc. the safety measures relevant to operation and use of such machines should be adhered to. If swinging weight such as ball is used for demolition, a safety zone having a width of at least 1.50 times the height of the building or structure should be maintained.

(d) Scaffolds used for demolition operations should be independent of the structure to be demolished. If ladders are used for demolition, only travelling mechanical ladders should be used, except that ordinary ladders may be used as means of access to the scaffolds. The hoists or chutes, whenever it is practicable, should be used to lower the materials. Materials chutes should have a gate at the bottom with suitable means for regulating the flow of materials.

(e) Whenever the condition demands, suitable catch platforms (at least 1.50 M. wide) should be provided along the outside of the exterior walls so as to prevent danger from falling objects. The catch platforms should be moved downward as the level of demolition operation gets lowered. The catch platforms should be inclined such that outer edge is higher than the inner edge.

G. SAFETY MEASURES IN DEMOLITION OF STRUCTURAL STEELWORKS

The specific safety measure for demolition of steel structure are only stated hereunder. The steel structures should be demolished from top tier by tier. There should be a definite plan of removing the various members of the steel structures. All precautions should be taken to prevent danger from any sudden twist, spring or collapse of steel parts/work when it is cut or released. Structural steel parts should be carefully lowered and not dropped from a height. Safety precautions of gas cutting of the steel members should be adhered to.

H. SAFETY MEASURES IN DEMOLITION OF TALL CHIMNEYS, MINARS, PYLONS ETC.

The particular safety measures for demolition of tall chimneys, minars, pylons etc., should not be demolished by overturning or plasting unless a protected area of an adequate dimension can be established in which the chimney or the structure can fall safety.. if the demolition of the tall structure is resorted to by blasting with explosives, the services of the specialist engineer should be requisitioned for the pattern of drilling, the size of the holes to drilled, the charge of the explosives etc. The entire sequence of the firing of the explosives etc. The entire operation should be under his supervision and control.

I. SAFETY MEASURES IN DEMOLITION OF INDUSTRIAL STRUCTURES

The Safety measures in removing heavy and bulky machinery, plant and equipment should be observed in addition to some of the relevant safety measures stated herein before. If the industrial Structure such as a nuclear power station is to demolished, the services of the specialist expert in the field of radio-activity and radiation should be requisitioned for the operation of the demolition of the structures which has radiation hazards. The entire operation of the demolition is to be planned by the specialist engineer, in consultation with the demolition engineer.

CONCLUSIONS:1. The rate of accident in construction industry is relatively high when compared

to other manufacturing industry such as engineering, pharmaceutical, chemical etc. This is mainly due to the nature of the civil engineering works and also partly due to the difference and disparity in training and skill of the the workers employed in the said industries. It is, therefore, imperative that workers employed in the construction industry are provided basic training in their respective trades and vocations. Further, It is essential that they are made safety conscious by the supervisors and engineers under whom they are directly working.

2. It is reported, in western advanced country based on the statistics, that in recent years the rate of fatal accidents due to collapse of excavation if 10% of total accidents in the work of excavations. It is quite high when compared to 0.5% fata! Accidents of total accidents in the construction industry as a whole. Further, it has been also reported that due to continuing increase in mechanisation of the construction work, there has been increase in the number of accidents concerned with transport and mobile plant. This emphasizes the need to adhere to safety measures in excavation, underpinning and demolition.

3. By far the largest proportion of accidents and casualties in civil and structural engineering field are not from structural failures during the working life of the building or structure, but during construction, maintenance and demolition of the same.

4. Civil engineering works very much depend on the basis of partnership between the client and his designer, his consulting engineer and the contractor and his workmen. This is no less true for safety. Civil engineering is essentially and industry which in term of safety, very much misses the controlled environment of the factory or a manufacturing work place. So there are many hazards to construction operations even after the said partnership has been achieved.
