COSHA
Dominant Idea
life is the most important factor. Safety is the first thing in CS, and prevention is
priority. Relative laws, rules and codes must be followed. Responsibility system of safe production must
be established. Strengthening safety training and learning for
the workers, managers, engineers, etc.
COSHA
Relative Laws, Rules, Codes and Regulation
National laws and regulations
Law of Safe Production(Work Safety) Law of Construction Law of Labor (Labor Law) Law of Fire Control Regulation of Safety Control in Construction Regulation of License on Safe Production

COSHA
Responsibility System of Safety Production
Safety is the first thing in CS. Project manager, deputy manager, engineers and
workers all have their own safety responsibility in CS.
Project manager is the first person to be responsible for safety.
COSHA
Actualization of Safety
Confirm safety framework and everyone’s responsibility Enhance education and training of safety knowledge Control of safety document Purchase, check and accept of safety facilities Control of client Process control of construction Emergency rescue of accident
COSHA
Site Management of Safety
Project manager set the primary safety rules in CS Preparation before commencement Outlines of actualization Use of machinery in CS Scaffold engineering Safety of fire Construction with orderliness Seasonal construction
COSHA
Preparation before Commencement
Schedule of construction project have its safety control plan
Set responsibility system for safety in CS Safety training and education Insurance of accident Licensed system for people Check and accept of safety facility and construction
establishment
COSHA
Temporary Electricity in CS
Temporary electrical wire must be elevated 36V electric used for temporary lighting Electrical facility must be installed and maintained
by professional person Appropriate safety facilities and fire-fighting
equipment Regular inspection and maintenance
COSHA
Use of Machinery in Construction Site
Safety management Operator with professional safety training Safety of electricity Regular inspection Daily maintenance Guarantee measurement of safety
COSHA
Scaffold Engineering
Design, construction, usage and backout of scaffold must strictly obey to relative codes and regulations.
Quality guarantee of material of scaffold Regular safety inspection of scaffold Setting safety nets Compulsive inspection during and after extreme
weather (such as storm, typhoon, hurricane)
COSHA
Safety of Fire
Establishment of fire control plan.Management of fire control in CS.Setup fire-fighting team.Adequate fire-fighting equipment. Inspection.
COSHA
Construction with Orderliness
Keep company’s reputation Increase efficiency of lobar Bring into construction planning and scheduling
document Environment friendly (less pollution, less dust, etc) Lessen interference with residents Avoid breakage of underground pipe Less influence to neighborhood building (no
settlement, no crack)
COSHA
Seasonal Construction —— in Summer
Take action to avoid sunstroke Ensure healthy of food and keep sample for food Before and after storm, careful inspection must be done to the
false work, electrical wire and machinery Construction in rainy season, lightning proof and moisture proof
measurements must bring into effect Pay attention to disadvantages of high temperature to quality of
construction
COSHA
Seasonal Construction —— in Winter
Keep warm for construction workersKeep warm for curing of concrete and mortarTake action to avoid slip under freezing point
COSHA
Safety Inspection and Improvement
Safety inspectionMeasurements of correct and preventionInternal examinationSafety assessmentSafety recordIdentification of hidden Hazards
COSHA
Control of Hidden Trouble Safety operation in CS to reduce hidden trouble Hidden trouble including:
Unsafe operation of people Unsafe state of material and equipment Disfigurement of management
Control of hidden trouble: Disqualification equipments can not come into use Incompetent program can not pass Unsafe activities can not be done
The core of safety prevention is the sanity and renewable of guarantee system of safety production.
COSHA
Treat with Construction Accident
Emergency measures in CS Fact of accident come out Investigate the reasons Punish relative responsible persons Safety inspection Study on safety technology and give reasonable
recommendations
COSHA
Core of Safety Activity in CS
Safety of People Guarantee of Construction Quality Valid safety management Environment-Friendly Sustainable Development
