North Carolina General Statutes 95-129(1) of the Occupational Safety and
Health Act of North Carolina: The
employer did not furnish to each of his employees conditions of employment
and a place of employment free
from recognized hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or
serious injury or serious physical harm
to his employees in that employees were exposed to a struck-by injury:
a)Facility, the three bay shop area, where employees were exposed to a
struck-by injury due to
the employer suspending a Central Machinery 3-ton hoist (Model 2211),
which vertically lifts
400 to 600-pound riding lawn mowers, from a rigid frame purlin and the
maximum load
capacity was not obtained from either a structural engineer or the
buildings manufacturer.
b)Facility, the three bay shop area, where employees were exposed to a
struck-by injury due to
the employer suspending a 1-ton hoist, which vertically lifts 400 to
600-pound riding lawn
mowers, from two rigid frame purlins and the maximum load capacities were
not obtained from
either a structural engineer or the buildings manufacturer.
c)Facility, the three bay shop area, where employees were exposed to a
struck-by injury due to
the employer suspending a 2-ton hoist, which vertically lifts 400 to
600-pound riding lawn
mowers, from a rigid frame clearspan and the maximum load capacity was not
obtained from
either a structural engineer or the buildings manufacturer.
Abatement Notes: Obtain the rated load capacity of the rigid frame
clearspans and purlins used to
suspend the hoists (chain blocks) from either a structural engineer or the
buildings manufacturer. Mark
the load rating on the affected rigid frame clearspans and purlins so that
the load rating is clearly visible
from the shop floor. If the load ratings are unobtainable, discontinue
suspending chain blocks from the
rigid frame clearspans and purlins.

chain, the nominal chain size, the rated load for the chain, and the angle
upon which the rating is
based.

lifting chains and chain blocks),
