Question Packet

1.​ To prevent accidents in the workshops you must approach new jobs with safety in mind, safety

is your own responsibility.

2.​ You are responsible of your own safety.

3.​ First Degree Burns-When the skin is red and irritated.

Second Degree Burns-When the skin is visibly destroyed and often blistered.

Third Degree Burns-The skin and/or tissue is visibly charred or super white

4.​ Pour under cold water instantly is 1-2 degree burn, for 3 degree seek medical attention

immediately

5.​ The three types during welding of light are ultra-violet, infrared, and visible.

6.​ Ultra-Violet is the most dangerous type of light. Because you can’t see it

7.​ Putting up flame resistant special welding curtains will protect a site from harmful light.

8.​ A flash burn

9.​ The UV light can injure either the white of the eye or the retina.

10.​ Because they are extremely dangerous if untreated

11.​ 100% cotton or wool is the best clothing to wear

12.​ All cotton pants and shirt (wool is better but hard to get), steel toe boots. Gauntlet welding

gloves. Safety Glasses. Welder cap and helmet. Earplugs too.

13.​ A spark might fall in and light a match if you have one in your pocket

14.​ Gauntlet gloves, long sleeves shirt, vest, bib, pants, and steel toe are all forms of extra

protection.

15.​ UV light is dangerous along with sparks and you need to protect your eyes at all times during

welding

16.​ Hearing Loss and pain to the ears can happen

17.​ Earmuffs and headphones.

18.​ There must be good ventilation and space if not respirators will be required. Teach them all

of the ways to use a respirator.

19.​ Air purifying respirators or Atmosphere-supplying respirators are two types of respirators

20.​ Oil and led can release harmful fumes along with Cadmium, Zinc, and Phosgene

21.​ Uncleaned surfaces can let off harmful fumes.

22.​ Natural ventilation can be used per 11,000 cubic feet per welder with ceilings of 16 feet.

23.​ It’s good for the environment and it generates revenue for your welding shop.

24.​ Forced Ventilation must be used in close quarters

25.​ All manufacturers must be provided with SDSs

26.​ ​Located away from halls, stairways, & exits, and away from heat, radiators, furnaces and

welding sparks. Stored separately by 20 ft or by a wall 5 ft high with at least 1/2 hour burning

rate. (an area that unauthorized people cannot tamper)

27.​ Cylinders must be secured with a chain or other device so that they cannot be knocked over

accidently.
28.​ If a leak can not be stopped by closing the cylinder valve, then the cylinder should be moved

to an open lot or an open area. The pressure should then slowly release after posting a warning

sign.

29.​ It is important to not keep the cylinders horizontally because it maymay draw acetone out of

the cylinder.

30.​ Hot work is welding outside the shop

31.​ Materials should be 35 feet or more away from welding.

32.​ When someone sounds the fire alarm or uses a fire extinguisher you should need a fire watch

33. The four types of fire extinguishers are green triangle, red square, blue circle, and yellow

star.

34.​ it is important to plan maintenance for tools because it ​will aid in detecting potential

problems such as leaking coolant, looses wires, poor grounds, frayed insulation, or split hoses.

35.​ It is important to keep welding areas clean to prevent tripping and other injuries.

36.​ If you leave a hot piece of metal unattended you should note near it that it is hot.

37.​ It may cause chips of metal flying around and injuries may occur if you don’t have a

hammer or chisel around near the welding area.

38.​ Accidental contact with the conductors is the most common electric shock.

39.​ The factors necessary for confined space hazard are metal enclosure, wetness, restricted

entry, heavier than air gas, welder inside or on workplace.

40.​ Over heat and break down the insulation rapidly will happen if to much power is being

carried by a cable.

41.​ to prevent electrocution is why equipment must be turned off.

42.​ A size 12 gauge wire is need to power the power tool.

43.​ GFCI-​A ground-fault circuit interrupter is the only protection device designed to protect

people against electric shock from an electrical system.

44.​ Watch extension cords from sharp objects, connect cord to extension cord, check for exposed

wire, use a knot to prevent separation, and check for unusual heating.

45.​ ​Know the tool and ground when needed, Do not expose to water, Do not force a cutting tool

to cut faster, Use the right tool for the right job, Wear eye and face protection, Secure your work

with clamps, Disconnect from power source when not in use, Check to see keys or wrenches are

removed, Avoid accidental starting, Be sure accessories and bits are attached securely

46.​ you can be electrocuted if you weld with wet materials and machines.

47.​ Pedestal Grinder & portable Grinder are the two types of welders.

48.​ 1/16 of an inch away from the grinding stone

49.​ ​-Shear, punches, cut-off machines, and band saws

-Advantages are thermal cutting include little or no post-cutting cleanup, wide variety of metals

can be cut, & the metal is not heated

50.​ ​Weight of object should be distributed evenly between both hands, & your legs should be

used to lift, not your back.

51.​ ​Look for loose or damaged steps, rungs, rails, braces & safety feet. Check hardware is tight

(hinges, locks, nuts, bolts, screws, & rivets). If Wood ladder check for Rot, wood decay & crack

52.​ -Tie ladder securely in place

-Do not exceed the manufactures recommend maximum weight limit

-Climb & descend the ladder cautiously

- Never use ladders around live electrical wires

-Wear well-fitted shoes or boots
