Couple weeks ago I posted some delivery pics of a machine that our company purchased. I updated the thread in DIY if anyone is interested. https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3970425 But here is some actual OSHA from our IT guy punching down some wires for communication to it.

I'm a fan of policies that say tie off on scissor lifts anyway. You can technically set it up so that when it's raised and parked it's the right walking-working surface for the job but being real about using them, their rear end is gonna be half out as they lean alllll the way over because they parked 1 ft off what they should have and they don't want to lower and scoot it again to get it in the right place.

Scholtz posted:PPE is not a substitute for proper work practices and shouldn't be relied on as such Anyway it's a complex subject that noone can agree whether PPE is an engineered control or dangerous tools of lax discipline. Do seat belts make people worse drivers? Probably, but the benefits outweigh the risks. E. I mean you can still coach them to site their lift better if they are hanging their whole rear end out while wearing fallpro but there's a better place to park the thing for what they're doing. PPE and discipline are two great tastes that go together. zedprime fucked around with this message at 14:42 on Jun 25, 2021 |

Jokerpilled Drudge posted:ty for destroying everyones hearing on the beach lol I just caught up with the thread and I love it so much - so many experts on this stuff and I'm learning a lot. The SmarterEveryDay links from a few pages back about the submarine were fantastic and very approachable. I wish I had some of those computer animations to explain things while I was getting my Dolphins. 20 years in the Navy and I have a slew of OSHA poo poo. I was mainly a submariner but my first tour was on an Amphib tank landing ship. Here's a story that stands out from 30 years ago: I was working for the Gunner's Division and the senior E6 "Leader" was kind of a mess. The division was given an office one level below the bridge. One day he decided we needed an outlet moved so he went to the circuit breaker and turned off the power. A few minutes later it was back on so he went and turned it off again. What he didn't know is that the bridge was doing pinpoint anchoring for an inspector and the fuse also controlled one of the doohickeys on the bridge for monitoring ship's position. When it lost power they sent someone to check the fuse and reset it. So my guy hosed up the precision anchoring TWICE. After the second time he went out and told the sailor flipping it back on that he needed it off. No tag out procedure necessary. They took him to Captain's Mast.

Ornamental Dingbat posted:Does this mean he got promoted or like, tied to the mast pirate style? In the Navy when you gently caress up badly enough you get to stand in front of the Captain while the charges are read and your chain of command either says "hey this was a one time deal, it's not really a problem" or "Sailor is too hosed up for redemption." There are different penalties the Captain can give out but the best part is that the rules of evidence don't apply so it doesn't matter if you have proof you didn't gently caress up, if they want you to suffer you get to suffer. HE got a warning since he was very senior, wasn't going to advance and was about to retire. Anyway that's a small explanation of what a Captain's Mast is. I worked for the CO at two different commands as the Drug and Alcohol Program Advisor and have been to many, many Masts. Thankfully none of them mine, but I got close a few times. I should have explained that better, sorry.

Those pallets look to be strong, in good condition and neatly stacked. Wheels are chocked. Hell, put some screws into each pallet holding it to the one lower and I'd help a friend under it.

I'm not sure what part of a jet engine makes the most noise, but maybe the noise doesn't scale linearly with the power output - so one at high power is more noisy than two at half that?

I've heard that it's the way the ambient air rejoins with the accelerated stream that causes the most noise for turbofans, which was mentioned in passing about commercial airline designs. So yea I can totally seeing various designs having side effects on the noise level, which probably isn't priority for a military craft.

DandyLion posted:Also something I couldn't figure out but I always noticed the F-16's sounded way louder even though the F-18's had two of those engines.... The engines are designed to be quiet. Acoustical vibes can destroy an aircraft engine. The sound is made by the fan throwing air into the compressor (military fighter engines are low by-pass turbojets, not high by-pass turbofans), then shooting it out the rear end as fast as possible. Commercial engines try to move more mass, but slower. Mass flow rates can be comparable. The flow recombination makes the noise. You're hearing the engine push on the air around the plane so hard it's like shooting a water jet at concrete. Airframes are designed for 'low observables' so there was probably a change to make the sound less noticeable from the frontal hemisphere. The military doesn't give a poo poo if you hear the plane after it passes. It's already too late at that point.

Lesser Florida boats are like female roaches. Tag one and a bunch of jet-skis pop out the back while it sinks, compounding the problem. Each jet-ski you sink poops out fifty empty beer cans tied to a pit-bull. Then you get to deal with that problem

zedprime posted:I think these are my own words being used against me. But I'd consider the correct operating practices of using a scissorlift without fallpro are too narrow to fit into the mental load of a someone just doing their job. The scissorlift is the quickest tool for the job, not the best, so I'd rather not leave enough rope to hang yourself. I'd also accept just building scaffolding everytime which is the best tool but apparently that's too slow? Sorry, I didn't mean in any way to twist your words. I'm just cautious about PPE being overrelied on, leading to it being used in situations where it's detrimental to safety. With scissor lifts, they can topple the lift and create more of a hazard. Also, the picture does have fall protection; the railing itself on the lift qualifies as fallpro.

With scissor lifts, they can topple the lift and create more of a hazard. Also, the picture does have fall protection; the railing itself on the lift qualifies as fallpro. Toppling a scissor lift because of your tie off is a series of multiple mistakes. Either the scissor lift isn't made to tie off and you did and then you fell, or the scissor lift was sited poorly on a poor grade or degraded surface and then you fell. Or you're using the scissor lift as a tie off when you are outside the deck. I see these as kind of like wearing a seatbelt when you drove your car into a river: it's made the situation worse but we didn't exactly get here easily or smartly. Railings count as protection which is fine and why you can safely work without tie off fallpro and maybe that's fine for a lot of workplaces. But the person I think about protecting the most is the guy who's too busy doing his job to keep thinking about safety and there's a few traps for that guy. The first is the aforementioned reaching more than you ought to, which he shouldn't but probably will at some point just knowing human nature. The second is a lot of scissor lifts provision for travel above 6ft (but probably below the full range of travel) and in this case the railing doesn't count: you need to be tied off if you're in motion above your height limit. That's such a huge timesaver I don't know who is going to have the mental and safety fortitude to admit defeat and lower all the way when the controls work perfectly fine at their current height. The scissor lift people know that too and let you turn off those controls anyway, which you should probably do if you're not a tie off always on scissor lift sort of place. Or if you don't trust the average driver to know how to site it and read the deflection meter. Scissor lifts are a land of contrast I guess.

Taking a u-turn with a trailer behind me, a whole stack of empty bread trays sailed straight through the side door into a right turn only lane on a surface level highway. Luckily, they didn't enter the lanes of travel and it was in front of a disused mini-mall. In the rain. Locked door, too. The sides of the trailer flex enough that the lock bar can pop right out of it's home. Stacked all that poo poo up and ran three bungie cords across the opening on the inside. I wonder why most of my customers nail that door shut?
