General-duty citation text
Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The employer did not furnish employment and a place of employment which were free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to potential failure of hand operated chain hoists at the supporting structure. Reference American National Standards Institute, ANSI B30.16-1987 Overhead Hoist (under hung), Section 16-1.3.2 Support: "The supporting structure, including trolley, monorail, or crane, shall be designed to withstand the loads and forces imposed by the hoist for the rated load." a) A Peerless #P2-183 hand operated chain hoist, 2000 pound capacity is attached to the ceiling in an unsafe manner due to the unknown capacity of the supporting members. No engineered design specifications were available and the attachment appeared to be job- made out of scrap metal. The ceiling surface area around the hoist attachment is crumbling with much of it missing, also indicating and improper attachment. This hoist is used in the shop to lift and manuever parts of farm machinery by employees. This condition exposes employees to the potential hoist support failure leading to falling load and hoist and the possible consequence of serious injury. b) A Yale, Spur Geared Block of unknown capacity, hand operated chain hoist is attached to the ceiling in an unsafe manner. The supporting track, which the hoist rides on, is connected to the ceiling. This track is falling out of the ceiling on one end. Evidence to support this is also found in that the ceiling tiles around this track are distorted and displaced. This hoist is used in the shop to lift and manuever parts of farm machinery by employees. This condition exposes employees to the potential hoist support failure leading to falling lead and hoist and the possible consequences of serious injury. Among other methods, oen feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard is to obtain a statement from a qualified structural engineer to discover the specifications the supporting structures must meet. Then a determination must be made as to whether the current the means of supporting both hoists is adequate. If it is determined that the supporting means are not adequate the following steps might be taken (in consultation with an engineer): 1) Alter the building structure to provide proper support. 2) Move hoist to an area of building that has the capacity. 3) Change attachment design to meet specifications set by engineer. 4) Use a type of hoist that comes with its own mounting (on a self supported track, for example) independent of the building structure.
