m. If the excavation is classed as a confined space, regulations governing confined space entry will apply. * Benching A method of protecting employees from cave-ins by excavating the sides of an excavation to form one of a series of horizontal steps, with a vertical rise between steps. ** Sloping (Angle of Repose) A method of excavating in which the sides of an excavation are laid back to a safe angle to prevent cave-ins. (The safe angle varies with different types of soil, exposure -to elements and superimposed loads. There is no single angle of repose. Soil classification must be identified to select safe sloping and benching methods.) 8.12

FIRE PREVENTION

Fire prevention means taking necessary action to prevent fire and explosion. One of the most important parts of any job plan action is to eliminate the potential of accidental fire and explosion. When the potential of fire and explosion is removed from the work or activity, a major hazard is eliminated. This prevents injury to workmen, damage or loss to property. Normally, portable fire extinguishers are adequate on construction sites. Other fire fighting services, such as use of fire-water mains/hoses or fire trucks will also be needed. FIRE WARDENS

A Fire Warden and alternative Fire Warden will be appointed for each office and work area. Their names will be posted in visible locations. The Fire Warden's duties will include; a. A good understanding of the emergency procedures and phone numbers. b. Checking that emergency exits are clear, emergency doors are not locked and that there are adequate means of escape. c. Checking that fire extinguishers are in their proper locations and operational. d. Checking that rubbish/combustibles are removed from the work area on a daily basis. e.

HOUSEKEEPING

The condition of a work area is a good indication of the attitude of management and the workers. A clean and well organized work area shows that the workers have a good attitude and go about their work in a professional manner. Good Housekeeping is a very important part of accident prevention. Where rubbish, scrap lumber and other types of combustibles are allowed to accumulate in the work area, the risk of fire is greatly increased. A cluttered work area also increases the risk of personal injury by exposing workers to tripping and slipping hazards and injuries from protruding nails etc. Management and Supervision will ensure that the Site and work areas are maintained to a high standard of housekeeping at all times. Water will be segregated according to the requirements of the Waste-Disposal Facility. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

a. Clear access will be maintained to emergency exits and escape routes at all times. b. Clear access will be maintained to fire fighting equipment, alarm points, electric panels and ladders. c. Clear access will be maintained to first aid facilities.

8.18

PILE DRIVING

Pile driving machines are classed as "lifting appliances" and require inspection, maintenance and periodic testing/certification. Nowadays, most piles are made of precast concrete, varying in length, thickness and weight and pile driving machines can be rigged/adapted with different size "drop hammers" to suit. However while "driving" piles, machines become subject to extreme "shock-loading" conditions, which cause "rapid" wear of moving parts, hoisting mechanisms/ropes and leakage from couplings and hoses etc. When a failure occurs there will be a very high risk of injury and damage to surrounding plant, thus the need for constant inspection of machines by trained personnel is crucial. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS (CHECK-LIST)

a. Ensure that pile driving machines are in good working condition accompanied by their relevant inspection/test certificates (thorough examination is required every 12 months). b. All hoses should be supported/tied to prevent "whip lashing" if a connection breaks. c. All fluid-lines should have "easy to reach" shut-off valves. d. All sheaves/winch gear should be adequately guarded, to prevent entanglement. e. If underground services exist, refer to section -BURIED SERVICES. f. Ensure that proposed working area ground conditions are firm/level. g. Piling machine operators will have a "certificate of competence", or other approved qualification. Supervisors, banksmen and slingers must be trained and attired with safety helmets, safety boots, gloves and hearing protection.

SAFETY PLAN Rev: 1

CONSTRUCTION ENTERPRISES CO. COMPANY Page 51 of 88

h. Piling machines must be equipped with a 6kg multi-purpose dry powder fire extinguisher. When timber "driving spacers" are being used, a bucket of water will be required for soaking/cooling purposes. i. Ensure that piles are being stacked within easy reach of the piling machines (one "leader" length is recommended) and that "tag lines" are being used when piles are being lifted. j. All other site personnel must be informed of the restrictions (piling zones), appropriate barriers/signs to be observed and noise/hearing protection requirements. k. Check that piles are in good condition and that they have not been "fractured" during transportation (damaged/fractured piles can break-up or shatter when being lifted or "driven"). I. When pile driving commences, ensure that all workers are standing well-clear. m. When not in use, "drop-hammers" should be lowered to the ground. n. Noise levels from piling may exceed the 85dba limit, all persons who have to work inside the zone must wear ear protection. *NOTE: Piling machines/equipment must be regularly inspected for wear or damage and be included in the Company's PLANNED MAINTENANCE INPECTION PROGRAMME. 9.0
