Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 002 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.176(b): Storage of material created a hazard (e.g., by sliding or collapsing): (a) Nidi Tec Inc, at 591 E 56th Avenue, Denver, CO: On and preceding 1/29/16, storage of material created a hazard (e.g., by sliding or collapsing). Large granite slabs were stored upon metal A-frame racks. The employer utilized a mix of GranQuartz model 750252 racks, rated for 12,000 pounds per side of the A-frame, and metal racks of unknown manufacture and capacity. Fourteen granite slabs, weighing approximately 13,000 pounds, were stored on one side of an A-frame rack of unknown manufacture and capacity. The employer did not ensure that the rack of unknown manufacture and capacity was designed to support 13,000 pounds on one side of the A-frame. This condition exposed employees to a crushing hazard.
