must be fully extended with the rubber off the ground. The outrigger pads must be independently cribbed. The amount of cribbing is determined by this rule-of-thumb: cranes capacity / 5 = # of sq ft required under each outrigger pad. Therefore, a 35T hydraulic crane would require 7 sq ft of adequately sized cribbing under each outrigger pad. Each outrigger shall be cribbed so that it can take the entire weight of the crane. Make certain that supporting surfaces (i.e. bridges, concrete slabs, etc) can withstand the maximum intended load (weight of machine plus load) Check for subterranean defects (vaults, drainage pipes, etc) and stability of adjacent earth retention and / or support systems (slope, shoring, sheet, etc.). Coordination and scheduling is important, due to potential need to relocate personnel within an occupied structure, block or restrict building egress points, and develop and implement a control traffic plan, for example. Barricade areas surrounding these areas to prevent pedestrians and workers from being struck by falling material. Fuel must be emptied (diesel, gasoline) or removed (compressed gas cylinder) from mobile equipment prior to hoisting over a building. Daily inspections shall be completed and documented. Each defect affecting the safe operation of the equipment must be corrected prior to the equipment being placed back into service. The equipment must be tagged out-ofservice until it has been properly repaired. Cranes must be inspected annually by a qualified third party. The annual inspection certification shall be on the crane. (Note: Hoists cant be modified without the written consent of the equipment manufacturer.) Calculated the weight of the load, including rigging running rope and blocks. Do not exceed capacity of hoist and / or rigging. Use tag lines to control load. Consider the use of a double choke hitch to maintain 360 degrees of friction on loads such as a bundle of scaffold cross bracing, for example. Winches shall not be utilized to hoist materials. Base mounted drum hoists shall be utilized in accordance with ANSI standards. Cranes operating above 200 shall obtain authority from the FAA, and or any local jurisdiction that has authority over such equipment.

Wear appropriate PPE (listed above), including without limitation, welding gloves and goggles (and face shield when welding). This requirement extends to helpers. Must wear a full face shield in addition to safety the requisite safety glasses when chipping or saw cutting. < 20 material drop barricade with red danger tape to prevent pedestrians / workers form being struck by debris. Due not compromise an active doorway / walkway w/o prior coordination with DCC. 20 material drop use a debris chute into a dumpster. The dumpster needs to be maintained to ensure that door is closed and the material not overfilling. See DCC Policy 5.062. Ensure truck is on firm level ground. Chock the wheels. Stand to side of chain binders, or nylon web ratchet binders, and inspect the load for shifting or (and remove) loose objects prior to releasing. Do not stand between loaded trailer and material handling equipment. Use a ladder to climb onto the trailer. Access the loaded unsecured cargo from behind, this will minimize any possibility that a worker will become entrapped. Ensure that the cargo is secured to the truck or mobile equipment that may be positioning it within the project limits. A Competent Person must conduct daily inspections and ensure that employees adhere to good housekeeping practices, for example: Keep oil pans in place when cutting machines are in use. This will protect existing flooring from oils, and mitigate the likelihood of worker exposure injury. Maintain all conduits, pipes on racks, to minimize the hazard of tripping, keep all pipes against walls out of walking areas. Maintain control of concrete slurry generated during wet saw cutting. The slurry may create a slippery underfoot condition due to suspended fines and / or icing conditions. Mix plaster in a designated areas, to minimize water spillage through out job clean this area

At least one competent person shall inspect the scaffold prior to use each shift. The inspection shall be recorded on a scaffold inspection tag located at each access point. See DCC Scaffold Checklist and Policy no. 5.075. Subcontractors shall attend whatever coordination and training sessions that may be required as a result of multi-trade scaffold utilization. Subcontractors shall accept full responsibility as users when on scaffold. This responsibility includes all provisions that OSHA has established for scaffold use and inspection. And shall provide whatever PPE and fall protection equipment may be required while utilizing the equipment. Subcontractors shall ground mast climbing scaffold when winds exceed 29 mph and at the end of the shift on Friday. 3.5 toe-boards shall be installed and maintained on each scaffold platform. Mesh is required between the handrail and toeboards to further minimize the possibility of falling objects. Materials and supplies shall not be allowed to accumulate on the platform higher than the toeboard. When bumping planks up or down, for example the trade contractor must make sure that all safety precautions are taken. Subcontractors must close off ends of staging with proper guard rails, and toe boards when planks are removed. Scaffolds shall be designed by a professional engineer and shall be constructed and loaded in accordance with that design. A scaffold plan must be prepared by a qualified person and submitted to DCC prior to erection. The scaffold system must be erected and dismantled in accordance with the plans and / or instructions prepared by the qualified person. Scaffold must be properly inspected by each trade contractor utilizing the system. The following inspection tags shall be utilized: GREEN Safe YELLOW Conditional Use RED Unsafe Do Not Use Supported scaffold The supporting surface must be capable of supporting the dead load and 4 times the intended load applied or transmitted to it (live load).

installed on an elevated concrete floor in order to distribute the dead and live loads of the erected scaffold system. Suspended scaffold Direct connections to roofs and floors, and counterweights used to balance adjustable suspension scaffolds, shall be capable of resisting at least 4 times the tipping moment imposed by the scaffold operating at the rated load of the hoist, or 1.5 (minimum) times the tipping moment imposed by the scaffold operating at the stall load of the hoist, whichever is greater. Each suspension rope, including connecting hardware, used on adjustable suspension scaffolds shall be capable of supporting, without failure, at least 6 times the maximum intended load applied or transmitted to that rope with the scaffold operating at either the rated load of the hoist, or 2 (minimum) times the stall load of the hoist, whichever is greater. The stall load of any scaffold hoist shall not exceed 3 times its rated load. Suspended scaffold platforms shall be grounded or secured when not in use, especially in extreme weather conditions. Wire rope clips and thimbles may be utilized to form eyes to terminate tiebacks, but only if they are appropriately sized, installed, and inspected (visually and physically torqued). Note: Suspended scaffold systems must have inspection tags at anchor points and platform. The contractor must prepare and submit a fall protection plan to DCC. The activity is controlled by a 6 fall protection rule. Disconnect all equipment, and use job specific lockout / tagout (LOTO) procedures. Use of all proper PPE (NFPA 70E protocol is encouraged), in conjunction with nonconductive barriers, equipment, and tools. Each contractor performing work (tie-in, cut-out, or troubleshooting) on energized (irrespective of voltage) systems should submit their project specific (LOTO) procedure to DCC, so that DCC can coordinate work with owners, if required. Only qualified workers may perform this work. Live conductors shall be properly covered duct tape and cardboard may not be utilized to cover junction boxes or openings in breaker cabinet, for example. See DCC Policy no. 5.053 and 5.066. Underground utility locations must be marked prior to the start of work. Each underground utility must first be located by non-mechanical means when the proposed excavation is located within safety envelope of the utility. No equipment shall operated closer than 10 to

overhead power lines <50kv, an additional 4 must be added to clearance distance for each 10kv 50 kv. Mobile equipment may safely pass under (transit only) overhead electric lines with a minimum clearance distance of 4 (lines <50kv) and 10 (lines 50kv to 345 kv). Commonwealth of MA requires dump trucks to have a visible and audible alarm within the cab to warn drivers when body is elevated. This BMP should be adopted on jobsites were overhead line exposure is present. Flags installed by utility company and ground positioned signs indicating the presence of overhead utilities is also considered proactive. Workers must be trained to handle emergency situations. Verify that switch gear panels are not back feeding other buildings or panels. See DCC Policy no. 5.066. Double cleated ladders provide egress for 25 or more workers from an elevated work area, and allow workers to travel in two (2) directions. Construction considerations Seasoned lumber with moisture content of no more than 19%. Lumber to have a minimum fiber stress of 1200 psi. Cleats (rungs) are to be 2 by 4 nominal stress grade dimension lumber and relatively clear of knots (tight with side face of <3/4 in diameter, no more than 2 in a cleat that are more than 6 apart, nor located closer than 1 from the cleat edge).
