Stiffening and Supporting Working Load Points Sample Clauses
The "Stiffening and Supporting Working Load Points" clause defines the requirements for reinforcing and providing adequate support at locations where significant loads will be applied during construction or operation. In practice, this means that structural elements such as beams, anchors, or lifting points must be designed and constructed to withstand the expected forces without deformation or failure. For example, areas where heavy equipment is attached or where loads are frequently transferred must be specifically engineered to handle these stresses. The core function of this clause is to ensure safety and structural integrity by preventing failures at critical load-bearing points, thereby reducing the risk of accidents and costly repairs.
Stiffening and Supporting Working Load Points. When iron is landed on the floor or any point of structure under construction, all connections shall be fully fitted up and tightened and substantial supports provided to safely sustain such added weight.
Stiffening and Supporting Working Load Points. Where iron is landed on the floor or any point of a structure under construction, all connections shall be fully fitted up and tightened and substantial supports provided to safely sustain such added weight. No ironworker shall be permitted to ride the load or load fall. Steel cable will be used instead of chains or hemp slings. Only one (1) structural member or one (1) assembly shall be hoisted for erection at any one time. This clause does not refer to hoisting bundles of bar joists, bridging, sag rods or other bundles of miscellaneous items.
Stiffening and Supporting Working Load Points. Where iron is landed on the floor or any point of a structure under construction, all connections shall be fully fitted up and tightened and substantial supports provided to safely sustain such added weight. Riding the Load or Load Falls. No employee shall be permitted to ride the load or load fall except in case of inspection, erection and dismantling of derricks. Slings. Steel cable will be used instead of chains or hemp slings. Overhead Cranes, Crushers. There shall be no work on any overhead crane, crusher or conveyor until fuses have been removed and switch box locked, or the safety of the men is otherwise made sure.

No ironworker shall be permitted to ride the load or load fall. Steel cable will be used instead of hemp slings. All multiple lifts shall be completed as defined in OSHA 1926-753 Hoisting and Rigging Section (e) Multiple lift Rigging Procedure and OSHA 1926-251, Rigging Equipment for Material Handling. Proper practical safe housing, casing or tube shall be provided for any and every means, method, appliance or equipment employed to transmit or give signals, directing work or operation of any and various devices in connection with work being done by Ironworkers. No Ironworker will be permitted to work in an elevator shaft while car is in operation. The first floor beneath and the first floor above men working shall be planked safe in all elevator shafts. When arc welders or acetylene cutting torches are used while working aloft on all structural frames, stagings, scaffolds or boatswain’s chairs, no less than two (2) Ironworkers shall be employed for each unit when necessary for purposes of safety. When an arc welder and an acetylene torch are needed together, they shall be classed as one unit. Ironworkers shall not be required to walk on any structural member, which has any projection above the flat surface of said members. (This refers to welded studs and shear connectors, which have been welded prior to erection.) Exceptions to this clause will be considered by the local union Executive Board at least ten (10) days before erection. No less than a crew of three (3) Ironworkers shall be used in handling, setting or moving machinery of four (4) tons or over requiring the use of blocking and, or cribbing during the moving operation. One (1) block high shall not be considered as blocking and, or cribbing. Chains referred to under OSHA 1926.251(b) Alloy Steel Chains will be allowed. No Ironworker shall work on electrified cranes unless the starting mechanism or electric switch shall be located in off position by key. Possession of said key shall be in custody of Ironworkers actually working in cranes. The in plant safety rules shall apply. When a contractor is required by an owner to supply Ironworkers who have attended OSHA approved Safety Courses, the union will provide them. The courses will be offered to the Ironworker throughout the year and will be fu...
