Name the ones you know. 2- Which are the risks that an operator runs if he doesn’t follow the correct safety measures? READING: The Correct Safety Clothing For Heavy Machinery Use Heavy machinery and power tools are used for a variety of different reasons. This could bbe on a construction site, at the roadside or even renovating homes. The proper and correct usage of these tools is not the only thing that must be taken into consideration. ‘Sometimes the clothing you wear is the only thing that will protect you from injury. ‘When operating heavy machinery itis important that the clothing be sturdy and snug- fitting, but it should also allow for complete freedom of movement. Loose-fitting jackets, scarves, neckties, jewellery, flared or cuffed pants and even unconfined long hair must be avoided at all costs, as these things could become entangled in the machine. Reinforced retardant overalls must be used. Prolonged use of heavy machinery exposes the operator to vibrations that could produce white finger disease (Raynnauds' phenomenon), which is also known as Carpal tunnel syndrome. These conditions reduce the hands ability to feel and regulate temperature. Carpal tunnel syndrome will cause numbness and burning sensations in the hand and may cause nerve and circulation damage and tissue necrosis. This is why it is imperative to Protect your hands as much as possible when handling a machine, Heavy-duty, non-slip gloves will improve your grip on the machinery and will also protect your hands at the same time. ‘Anti-vibration systems and heated handles do not guarantee that you will not sustain carpal tunnel syndrome. Therefore, even though you have taken the necessary measures to ensure that your hands are protected, continual and regular users of heavy machinery should monitor the condition of their hands and fingers closely. if any of the above ‘mentioned carpal tunnel symptoms appear, you should look for medical advice immediately.

Sturdy boots with non- slip sol P Soles must be worn, and steel-toed safety boots are recommended for the usage of most heavy machinery, jout the use of, To reduce the risk of injury to your eyes, never operate a machine Protective goggles or snuggly fitted glasses. For some machinery it will specify that you must wear a mask to protect your entire face. The mask will protect your eyes, nose and ‘Mouth from the dust created by the use of the machine. There is also additional safety equipment that must be used on a construction site. A safety helmet, or hard hat, is very important, to protect your head. A safety helmet is almost always compulsory on construction sites, and some machinery labels will speci the use of a hard hat. Heavy machinery can be extremely loud, and sometimes it will be necessary for you to ‘wear ear protectors. This will protect your ears against damage that could be caused by the loud noise. Certain machinery that produces a loud noise when in use will have a label specifying that ear protectors must be worn while in operation. Another piece of safety clothing that is worn is the safety harness. This is not necessary clothing, but it still is something that will be used by the operator. A harness will be. required as a precautionary measure when the person is on ladders or scaffolding.

The primary design concerns are settlement and bearing capacity. It is essential that the loads are spread safely and evenly over the supporting ground to ensure the stability of the building. In most cases, we do not see the foundation because it is below ground level. Foundations can be shallow or deep. This will depend on the type of soil the building will be constructed on. Shallow foundations: they perform well on sites with strong soils, sufficiently thick natural gravel rafts overlaying weaker soils or where robust, engineered ground improvement is carried out. For sites with weaker soils, it may be more economic to improve the ground and use shallow foundations than to use deep pile foundations. Deep foundations (piles foundations): a pile is basically a long cylinder of a strong material such as concrete that is pushed into the ground so that structures can be supported on top of it. Pile foundations are used in the following situations: Escaneado con CamScanner L-when there is a layer of weak soll at the surface. This layer cannot support the Weight of the building, so the loads of the building have to bypass this layer and be transferred to the layer of stronger soll or rock that is below the weak layer, 2-when the building has very heavy concentrated loads, such as In a high rise structure, 2- Structure: This is comprised of pillars, beams and tie-beams made of reinforced concrete or iron. The structural system of every house Is required to support and transmit various loads. These loads can be classed as static or dynamic. A static load is applied slowly to a structure and does not change quickly. For example, movable loads resulting from people, collected water and/ or snow or movable equipment, building weight, soil and hydraulic loads. A dynamic load is measured by the application of rapid force or pressure to an object. For example wind loads or earthquake loads. 3- Floors and ceiling: The primary functions of the floor are to support the imposed loads and to provide a level surface for the activities that are carried out in the home. Floors must be designed to meet a number of performance requirements, including: “Strength and stability *Durability “Moisture resistance *Thermal insulator 4- Exterior walls: The primary functions of the external walls of a house are to support the loads generated and to create a comfortable living space. Walls must be designed considering “strength and stability “weather resistance *thermal insulator 5- Windows: These provide a visual link between internal space and the outside world. They are very important to the mental health of the people in the house. A small tie-beam is placed above the window to bear the load of all bricks situated over the window frame. 6- Roof: Its functions are to protect a building from the weather and to retain the heat generated inside. It is comprised of a wood or iron structure, a thermal material and the last layer, the tiles or slates. As well as the exterior walls, roofs must include these requirements: *strength and stability “weather resistance “thermal insulator 7- Internal walls: The primary function of internal walls is to divide the overall space within the house in smaller spaces. They are made of brick, wood or plaster. Some walls will be load bearing, which will have the function of supporting the loads of the house, and some will be non-load bearing, which will just have the purpose of di iding the house in rooms.

Escaneado con CamScanner Civil engineering The term civil engineering describes, in general, the profession of designing and executing structural works for the general public and the communal environment. Civil engineering covers different areas of engineering, including the design and construction of large buildings, roads and bridges, canals, railway lines, alrports, water- supply systenis, dams, irigation, harbours, docks, aqueducts and tunnels. The civil engineer needs a thorough knowledge of surveying, of the properties and mechanics of construction materials, of the mechanics of structures and soils, and of hhydraulles and fluid mechanics. Today civil engineering includes the production and chemical process plants and nuclear power stations, and water desalination. Of all the areas a civil engineer can cover, we'll talk about bridges, thelr characteristics, parts and specifications, ACTIVITY 1: First of all, we'll see the parts of the bridge.

That's the total height. The road deck itself is 246 m above the river. Then, the pylons or towers rise another 90 m above the deck. J:1 see... And how wide isthe river valley at the bridge? E: Well, the valley is almost 2.5 km wide. Infact, the bridge is 2.460 m long or 2.6 km. J: And how long are the spans? E: They have different lengths. The bridge has two outer spans and six inner spans. The two outer spans are 204 m long and the six inner spans are 342 m long. J: How wide isthe road deck?
