| Slide 1: Title: The New Steel Erection Rule Highlights Background for all of the slides is a overview of a construction sire showing a concrete and steel structure being built. Two cranes are in this photograph. At the bottom right is the title Steel Erection with the Department of Labor's interlocking "L's" adjacent to the title. At the bottom right is the page number one. Slide 2: Title: Steel Erection Final Rule The first bullet point is, Published January 18, 2001. The second bullet point is, Implemented January 18, 2002. The third bullet point is, Includes exceptions for some provisions. The photograph on this page is a side view of structural steel building under construction. Two workers are in a crane suspended workbasket (platform) doing work on the top beam. At the bottom right is page number two. Slide 3: Title: Scope The first bullet point is: Covers all employers engaged in steel erection activities. The second bullet point is: Contains two lists of activities: the Primary list is all activities covered, (connecting, bracing, guying, etcetera.) The Ancillary list is the activities covered "when they occur during and are a part of steel erection activities," (sealing, caulking, etcetera.) At the bottom left is the standard, 1926.750 b. At the bottom right is the page number three. Slide four: Title: Scope (continued) One bullet point: Does not apply to: Sub-bullet: Electrical transmission towers. Sub-bullet: Communication and broadcast towers. Sub-bullet: Tanks. The photograph shows a boom crane on the ground erecting an electrical transmission tower. At the bottom left is the standard, 1926.750 a. At the bottom right is the page number four. Slide 5: Title: Steel Erection Decision Tree The top box is: Is the activity at the jobsite listed in 1926.750 b 1? Under the top box is a yes and a no box. Under the yes box is: Then this activity is covered by Subpart R. Under the no box is: Is the activity listed in 1926.750 b 2? Under this no box are two boxes, one yes and one no. Under the yes box is: Then you must determine if this is going on in conjunction with (during and a part of) steel erection activities in b 1. A question to ask: Does this b 2 activity have to be done for steel erection to continue: If yes, and if done during b 1 activities, then it is covered by the standard. Under the no box for Is the activity listed in 1926.750 b 2? is: Because it listed in neither b 1 nor b 2, it is not covered by the standard. At the bottom right is the page number five. Slide 6: Title: Key Provisions of the Rule: The first bullet point is: Site layout. The second bullet point is: Hoisting and rigging. The third bullet point is Structural steel stability requirements. Under this are four sub-bullet points: first is, Column anchorage; second is, Beams and columns; third is, Open web steel joists; fourth is, Structural steel assembly. The photograph is an inside view of a steel building under construction. At the bottom right is the page number six. Slide 7: Title: Key Provisions of the Rule continued: The first bullet point is: System-engineered metal buildings. The second bullet point is: Falling object protection. The third bullet point is: Fall protection. The fourth bullet point is Worker training. The photograph shows two workers moving across a structural steel truss that is more than 15 feet from the ground. Both workers are attached to a horizontal life line. At the bottom right is the page number seven. Slide 8: Title: Site Layout The first bullet point is: Adequate layout area. The second bullet point is: Adequate access roads. The photograph shows an aerial view of a site with adequate layout space and roads. At the bottom right is the page number eight. Slide 9: Title Hoisting and Rigging: The first bullet is: Provides additional crane safety for steel erection. The second bullet is: Minimizes employee exposure to overhead loads through pre-planning and work practice requirements. The photograph shows a crane on a site with an adequate layout area. At the bottom right is the page number nine. Slide 10: Title: Hoisting and Rigging continued: The bullet point is: Prescribes proper procedures for multiple lifts (Christmas-treeing) The photograph is a crane hoisting three pieces of structural steel to two workers who are connectors and are standing on the top floor of a structural steel building. At the bottom left is the standard, 1926.753 e. At the bottom right is the page number ten. Slide 11: Title: Column Anchorage: The first bullet is: Minimum 4 anchor bolts per column. The second bullet is: Written notification of proper curing of concrete in footings, piers, walls for steel columns. The third bullet is: Written notification of adequacy of anchor bolts modified/repaired in the field. The photograph is a column that is anchored by four bolts to the base plate. The column is shimmed for proper alignments. At the bottom left is the standard, 1926.752 a, 1926.755. At the bottom right is the page number eleven Slide 12: Title: Beams and Columns The first bullet is: Two bolts per connection prior to releasing hoisting line. The second bullet is: Safe procedures for making double connections at columns. The photograph is the use of a seat on the column to which the steel beam can be anchored. At the bottom left is the standard, 1926.756. At the bottom right is the page number twelve. Slide 13: Title: Open Web Steel Joists The first bullet point is: Minimize the risk of collapse of lightweight steel joists by: Under this are three sub-bullet points: first is, Specifying erection bridging and methods of attachment; second is, Requiring erection bridging to be anchored to terminus point; third is, Specifying method of placing loads on steel joists. The upper photograph is diagonal bridging that is bolted to a steel joist or joists. The lower photograph is steel joist bridging connected to a bridging terminus point. At the bottom left is the standard, 1926.757. At the bottom right is the page number thirteen. Slide 14: Title: Structural Steel Assembly The first bullet point is: Specific work practices: Under this is one sub-bullet point; Hoisting deck bundles. The photograph is of an employee standing on a beam, signaling the crane operator to place a bundle of steel decking on another beam. At the bottom left is the standard, 1926.757. At the bottom right is the page number fourteen. Slide 15: Title: Structural Steel Assembly (cont'd) The first bullet point is: Minimizing fall hazards: Under this is three sub-bullet points: first is, Trip hazards; second is, Interior holes/openings; third is, Slip hazards.
