Barrier members for a building debris containment system
A debris containment system includes channel units that are configured to attach to perimeter structural members of the building (e.g., vertical columns and/or horizontal beams) and extend outward from the perimeter of the building. Channel units can be produced in any length or lengths needed for a given application. These channel units are used to lift and support barrier members (e.g., nets, tarps, canvas/fabric, or other barrier members) to create barriers along the perimeter of the building. Importantly, these channel units are generally attached directly or indirectly (e.g., via temporary vertical members) to structures that will remain on the building (e.g., structural columns and beams of the building) as opposed to being used with separate framing structures erected outside of the building perimeter, although in some exemplary embodiments, channel units can be used on structures erected outside of the perimeter of the building.
Extendable construction stanchion
Certain embodiments of the invention surround a reusable construction guardrail or stanchion. In certain embodiments, the reusable construction guardrail has features that aid in easier and faster assembly and disassembly. In certain embodiments of the invention, the construction guardrail is transportable, having telescoping features and folding features to allow greater ease in packing and transporting. Certain embodiments of the invention include a reusable construction guardrail having a uniform construction.
METHOD FOR PRODUCING AN INJECTION MOLDED NON-SKID SAFETY MAT INCORPORATING ADHERING SUPPORT PORTIONS SUCH AS FOR PLACEMENT UPON A SLOPING ROOF
A method for producing an injection molded and anti-skid mat providing a lower mold half and an enclosing upper mold half, the mold halves defining therebetween an interior cavity which is a negative of the mat to be produced. A cavity defining surface is configured in the bottom mold half with locations for preplacement of a plurality of underside adhering portions. A flowable plasticized/rubberized material is communicated through a channel in at least one of the mold halves in order to fill the interior cavity, the material setting and cooling prior to removing the upper mold half and the formed mat.
FALL PROTECTION SYSTEM
A fall protection system includes a substantially vertical guardrail post defining a first post side and a second post side; a lateral safety guardrail extending substantially horizontally from the guardrail post; and a pillar attachment assembly comprising a pillar attachment device and a flexible pillar attachment strap, the pillar attachment device mounted to the first post side of the guardrail post, and the flexible pillar attachment strap extending substantially horizontally from the pillar attachment device and configured to wrap around a structural component, wherein a free end of the pillar attachment strap opposite the pillar attachment device is releasably secured to the guardrail post.
Work safety management system using safety belt unit for high-place work
The present disclosure relates to a work safety management system using a safety belt unit for high-place work, and safety during working at a high place can be enhanced by determining whether a worker has fastened a seat belt to a safety structure, and the location of the worker, whether the seat belt is fastened and whether the work is on progress can be monitored in real time from a remote location to prevent safety accidents.
Case or Cradle for a Fall Arrest Device
A case or support cradle for a fall arrest device has a shape or configuration enabling rolling of the case or cradle along an arcuate path. The rollable case or cradle allows the fall arrest device received therein to smoothly follow a user's movements around a work site, thereby protecting the device from damage due to dragging or scraping along a floor surface.
FALL PROTECTION SYSTEM
A fall protection system includes a guardrail support frame comprising a guardrail post, wherein the guardrail post defines an elongate V-shaped notch configured to receive a pillar edge of a pillar; a lateral safety guardrail extending substantially horizontally from the guardrail post; and a pillar attachment assembly mounted to the guardrail post and comprising a flexible pillar attachment strap, the flexible pillar attachment strap configured to wrap around the pillar to secure the fall protection system to the pillar.
Method of Construction
A method of erecting a multi-storey structure is disclosed. During construction, at least a portion of a perimeter facade of the structure is disposed to extend at least two storeys height beyond an upper work area of the structure and forms at least part of a safety barrier for that work area and wherein in erecting the multi-story structure, at least one further floor of the structure is erected over the upper work area. The further floor forming a respective subsequent upper work area of the structure, and wherein at least a portion of the facade is disposed to extend at least one storey height beyond the uppermost of the subsequent work areas.
SLIDER DEVICE AND HANDRAIL APPARATUS
There is provided a slider device that includes: a slider main body that can move in the extending direction of a handrail while holding the handrail; and a plurality of pairs of rollers that are provided on the slider main body in a plurality of places apart from each other in the extending direction of the handrail, grasp side surfaces of the handrail, and can travel on the side surfaces of the handrail. One of the rollers facing each other across the handrail is a fixed roller fixed to the slider main body and the other of the rollers facing each other across the handrail is a movable roller supported in such a manner as to be able to get farther or closer with respect to the handrail, and each movable roller is biased toward the handrail by a biasing member.
PROTECTIVE PLATFORM ASSEMBLY FOR USE DURING ELEVATOR INSTALLATION
An illustrative example embodiment of an assembly includes a first platform and at least one first brace associated with the first platform. The first brace is configured to engage a surface in or near a hoistway for supporting the first platform in a vertical location near the surface. A portion of the first brace is moveable relative to the first platform between an extended position for engaging the surface and a retracted position for allowing the first platform to move relative to the surface. A second platform is vertically spaced from the first platform. An adjustment mechanism associated with the first platform and the second platform facilitates adjusting a vertical spacing between the first platform and the second platform.
