2、op worker, working alone, was disassembling and removing an 8 high mezzanine structure decked with 4x8 sections of steel bar grating. The support structure consisted of a bolted-up system of uni-strut columns and beams. While kneeling on a section of partially disassembled and cantilevered grating,

The injured worker did not return to work for several weeks.Lesson(s) Learned: 1. Demolition operations, especially elevated
6、ones, present substantial hazards as well as the potential for serious injury.2. Small “shop“ projects should not be exempted from activity hazard analysis and safety planning.Recommendation(s): Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-1. All
7、elevated demolition operations must have thorough activity hazard analysis.2. Always use buddy system when conducting elevated or hazardous demolition.3. Never cut off a branch you are sitting if you are beyond the cut line.4. Provide proper temporary restraints (ropes, scaffolding, etc.) to hold up
8、 larger and heavier components until they can be lowered safely to the floor/deck below.Evidence of Recurrence Control Effectiveness: N/ADocuments Related to Lesson: N/AMission Directorate(s): a71 Exploration Systemsa71 Aeronautics ResearchAdditional Key Phrase(s): a71 FacilitiesAdditional Info: Approval Info: a71 Approval Date: 2001-12-05a71 Approval Name: John Marcruma71 Approval Organization: DFRCa71 Approval Phone Number: 661-276-2825Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-
