SAFETY HELPS AS IT INCREASES EFFICIENCY REDUCES COST REDUCES DAMAGES TO

STRUCTURE/MACHINERY REDUCES

ACCIDENTS/DEATHS PREVENTS NEEDLESS

STRUCTURAL SAFETY ENGINEERED

STRUCTURES STRUCTURES

PLANNED, DESIGNED, EXECUTED AND MAINTAINED AS PER ENGINEEING PRACTICE AND CODE OF PRACTICES

5


M Soni, CPWD

ENGINEERED STRUCTURES NORMALLY DO NOT FAIL

UNDER DESIGNED CONDITIONS BUT NOTHING HAPPENS, CHALTA HAI CONCEPT SHOULD NOT BE FOLLOWED

SAFETY CULTURE MUST BE INCULCATED IN ENGINEERED STRUCTURES

6


M Soni, CPWD

NON – ENGINEERED STRUCTURES NOT DESIGNED INADEQUATELY DESIGNED MADE NON-ENGINEERED

DUE TO ADDITIONS/ALTERATIONS

CONSTRUCTED WITHOUT ENGINEERING PRACTICES/NOT CONFORMED TO SPECIIFICATIONS

M Soni, CPWD

NON – ENGINEERED STRUCTURES MAY COLLAPSE DURING

CONSTRUCTION MAY COLLAPSE DURING

NORMAL LOADING MAY COLLAPSE UNDER

CRITICAL LOADING CONDITIONS

M Soni, CPWD

NON- ENGINEERED STRUCTURES IF SINGLE/DOUBLE

STOREYED, WILL NOT FAIL – A MYTH

IF WALLS ARE QUITE THICK, WILL NOT FAIL – A MYTH

IF RCC CONSTRUCTION WILL NOT FAIL – A MYTH

NON- ENGINEERED STRUCTURES ? UNAWARENESS POOR ECONOMIC

CONDITIONS OF THE PEOPLE IN RURAL AREAS – GIVE

PLANNING ENGINEERS MATERIALS WHICH ARE

DURABLE, NON-COMBUSTABLE, NON-TOXIC AND ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLY SHOULD BE CONSIDERED

ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLY TECHNOLOGIES SHOULD BE CONSIDERED

ADEQUATELY DESIGNED TEMPORARY STRUCTURES LIKE SCAFFOLDING, CENTERING/SHUTTERING ETC.

M Soni, CPWD

MAINTENANCE STAGE BADLY PLANNED

STRUCTURES ARE DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN

POORLY CONSTRUCTED STRUCTURES LEAD TO HIGH COST OF MAINTENANCE

POORLY MAINTAINED STRUCTURES REDUCE THE LIFE

STRUCTURAL REPAIR TO BE GIVEN PRIORITY

23


M Soni, CPWD

CONCLUSION ENGINEERS AND ARCHITECTS

MUST PLAY A GREATER ROLE IN SAFETY ASPECTS

SAFETY CULTURE NEEDS TO BE INCULCATED IN ENGINEERING ORGANISATIONS

SAFETY ASPECTS TO BE INCORPORATED IN PLANNING, EXECUTION AND MAINTENANCE STAGES.

M Soni, CPWD

SAFETY PROGRAMME(4 Es) ENGINEERING – SAFETY AT

DESIGN EDUCATION – FOR SAFE

PRACTICES ENLISTMENT – ATTITUDE OF

EMPLOYEES AND MANAGEMENT TOWARDS PROGRAMME AND ITS PURPOSE

ENFORCEMENT – ADHERENCE TO SAFETY NORMS, RULES AND PRACTICES
