SEE EQUIPMENT SPECIFICATION SHEETS FOR REQUIRED POWER SUPPLY.
SIGNAGE
ADDITIONAL SURFACES EXPOSED TO THE WIND ON THE TOWER CRANE’S STRUCTURE
MAY AFFECT ITS STABILITY. THE CREATION OF ADDITIONAL SURFACES EXPOSED TO THE
WIND ON THE COUNTER-JIB CAN PREVENT THE CRANE FROM TURNING INTO THE WIND
PROPERLY WHEN IT IS OUT OF SERVICE, OR AFFECT THE TOWER CRANE’S PROPER
OPERATION WHEN IN USE. IF A SIGN IS TO BE PLACED ON THE TOWER CRANE WITHOUT
THE CALCULATION OF ADDITIONAL CRANE STRUCTURE STRESSES, THE FOLLOWING
MUST BE FOLLOWED:
SIGNS MUST BE NO LARGER THAN 4’-0" (1,219mm) X 8’-0" (2,438mm) CANVAS BANNER WITH
AIR RELIEF HOLES. A LONGER BANNER MAY BE USED WITH A CORRESPONDING
REDUCTION IN WIDTH, FOR A MAXIMUM BANNER AREA OF 32 sq.ft. (2.97 sq.m).
ONE SIGN MAY BE LOCATED ON EACH SIDE OF THE COUNTER-JIB NEAREST THE TOWER
TOP. ATTACH THE SIGN TO THE HANDRAILING.
SIGNS MAY ALSO BE ATTACHED TO, AND COVER AN AREA NO LARGER THAN, THE
COUNTERWEIGHTS.
SIGNS CONSTRUCTED OF SOLID WOOD, METAL, FABRIC, OR SIMILAR MATERIALS ARE
NOT PERMITTED.
SIGNS ARE NOT PERMITTED ON TOWER SECTIONS OR TOWER TOPS.
NOTE: SIGNAGE MUST NOT AFFECT THE NORMAL SAFE OPERATION OF THE TOWER
CRANE. IF THE TOWER CRANE OPERATOR IS NOT ABLE TO SAFELY CONTROL THE
TOWER CRANE FOR ITS NORMAL INTENDED OPERATION, THEN THE SIGNAGE MUST
BE REMOVED.

IN OPERATION WINDSPEED RESTRICTIONS ARE FOUND IN THE OPERATIONS MANUAL.
IF WINDSPEEDS EXCEED,OR ARE ANTICIPATED TO EXCEED THE RESTRICTION,
THE TOWER CRANE SHALL BE PLACED OUT OF OPERATION AND ALLOWED TO
WEATHERVANE 360 DEGREES.
THE CONTRACTOR IS TO VERIFY THAT THE TOWER CRANE MAY OPERATE AND/OR
WEATHERVANE OVER ADJACENT PROPERTY, EXISTING BUILDINGS, POWER LINES,
STREETS, NEIGHBORING OBSTACLES, ETC.
THE CONTRACTOR SHALL VERIFY ALL DIMENSIONS AND SITE CONDITIONS PRIOR TO
STARTING WORK. ANY DEVIATIONS FROM THIS DRAWINGS SET SHALL BE BROUGHT TO
THE IMMEDIATE ATTENTION OF MEC’S ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT.
ALL HOOK HEIGHTS ARE CALCULATED FROM THE TOP OF THE TOWER CRANE’S FOOTING.
FOR PROJECTS WITH MULTIPLE TOWER CRANES, WHEN SLEWING THE UPPER CRANE,
THE HOOK BLOCK MUST BE POSITIONED SO THAT IT WILL CLEAR THE LOWER CRANE.
CONSULT THE OPERATION MANUAL FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION NECESSARY FOR
SAFE OPERATIONS OF THE TOWER CRANE.

SECTION 1 - ADMINISTRATION
1.01 SAFETY PHILOSPHY
The 680 Folsom St./50 Hawthorne St. (680 Folsom) Project is dedicated to the principle
that a safe project is a successful and profitable project for the Owner and all
Contractors. The project is committed to the safety of its project employees, the
surrounding community, and the environment.
Each Contractor will have responsibility for safety at the project site, and their
employees share in that responsibility as well. All employees are expected to work
safely and to contribute to the safety of others. In fact, this is an important condition of
employment for everyone working on the 680 Folsom St. Project.
Accident prevention contributes to Each Contractor’s well being by avoiding injury or
illness to Each Contractor and its Subcontractor’s employees, improving productivity,
and reducing costs. The community also benefits directly from accident prevention
efforts when potential damage to the environment or members of the community is
effectively managed.
To say that all accidents can be prevented is a realistic goal, not just a theoretical
objective. It is achievable, in part by eliminating sources of hazards and unsafe acts,
but where this is not practical, by incorporating measures such as safety engineering
controls, proper training, safe operating procedures and personal protective equipment
to meet this goal.
In order for all 680 Folsom St. Project Contractors to understand this Safety Philosophy
and to meet its expectations, both general and specific training is required. That
training is the responsibility of every level of supervision for each Contractor. Safety
training and the prevention of accidents are logical and appropriate parts of how we
expect each Contractor’s and their subcontractor’s operations to be conducted.
This document has been written to comply with the guidelines established by the Plant
Construction Company, L.P., Environmental Health and Safety Program (EHSP) and
the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Whenever a conflict arises
between these requirements, OSHA regulations, and/or the Owners project safety
procedures, the specification most protective of worker safety and health shall prevail
(except where specifically noted as an exception). Contractors, upon approval of the
Plant Construction Company, L.P., may use safety and health procedures that are at
least as stringent as those contained in this document. Each Contractor shall bid the
most stringent.
Goals:
1. Accident free work.
a. A trained safety-oriented workforce.
2. Applicability and Review Requirements

4.05 EARLY RETURN TO WORK (TRANSITIONAL JOB) PROGRAM
An Early Return to Work Program or Transitional Job Program is not mandatory on this
project, however, it is recommended where ever possible. The establishment of these
types of programs has historically provided numerous benefits to both the employer as
well as the injured worker.The following section will aid in establishing basic guidelines
for an Early Return To Work (transitional duty) work assignment for injured workers.
Definitions
Injured Worker – An injured employee who has sustained a job related injury or illness
that results in a compensable claim.
Transitional Duty Work – Temporary job, which the injured worker can perform while
recovering from the work related injury or illness.
The benefits of an early return to work program are still multiple in that it brings an
injured employee back doing productive and self-rewarding work. It improves
employee’s state of mind, and is financially better for the employee. It boosts employee
morale and demonstrates that the employer wants to cooperate with the injured worker
and a worker on transitional duty can be of value to an employer if there is an
alternative plan or job description available for him/her.
Contractors shall attempt to implement an Early Return to Work Program which
provides transitional jobs in certain specified instances, wherever possible. A
transitional job is work, which requires the employee to avoid certain types of physical
activity, depending on the nature of the employee’s injury and doctor’s written
directions.
Section 4 - 7

SECTION 4 – LOSS CONTROL MANAGEMENT
A transitional duty assignment will not change a worker’s benefits, coverage and
premium amounts. Any injured worker could be considered for transitional work to
comply with the doctor’s restrictions.
How To Identify Transitional Work
1. Review all job descriptions for possible modification.
2. Identify those jobs on the project.
3. Make sure transitional duties are within employee’s written
capabilities/restrictions.
Examples of (Transitional) Jobs
1. Flagging or directing traffic.
2. Monitoring quantity of export/import materials.
3. Monitoring safety requirements on the site.
4. Conducting safety meetings and training.
5. Delineating trenches, excavations or danger areas.
6. Cross-training for another job or offsite training.
4.06 FIRE PROTECTION AND PREVENTION
Every Contractor must develop a fire protection program to be followed throughout all
phases of construction.
Fire fighting equipment must be conspicuously located or conspicuously marked.
A fire extinguisher, rated not less than 2A, shall be provided for each 3,000 square feet
of floor are and fraction thereof. Where the floor is less than 3, 000 square feet at least
one fire extinguisher is required. Each Contractor is responsible for their own fire
extinguishers.
Travel distance from any point of the protected are to the nearest fire extinguisher shall
not exceed 75 feet.
In multi-story buildings, at least one fire extinguisher shall be provided on each floor and
located adjacent to the stairway.
A fire extinguisher, rated not less than 10B, shall be provided within 50 feet of wherever
more than 5 gallons of flammable or combustible liquids are stored.
Portable fire extinguishers shall be fully charged, inspected monthly and serviced
annually.
A portable fire extinguisher rated at least 10B:C shall be kept near operations where
bottled fuel gases are being used.
Section 4 - 8

SECTION 4 – LOSS CONTROL MANAGEMENT
Portable fire extinguisher shall be readily available for use where temporary heating
devices are used.
4.07 FLAMMABLES AND COMBUSTIBLES
Each Contractor is required to supply extinguisher, fire blankets, and other sufficient fire
protection devices for the immediate work area where flammable and combustible
material is stored or used.
All Contractor supplied flammable liquids must be stored in approved safety containers
in accordance with OSHA regulations. All containers must be properly labeled and
stored when not in use.
Storage in excess of 25 gallons of flammable liquids or 60 gallons of combustible liquids
shall be within cabinets constructed to the requirements of NFPA 30.
A fire extinguisher, rated not less than 20-B, shall be located outside of, but not more
than 10 feet from the door opening of storage rooms.
All outside storage areas must be at least 20 feet from any building.
For roof work, no more than a one-day supply of flammables may be placed on the roof
during working hours. All flammables must be removed from the roof at the end of each
workday by Each Contractor.
For roof work at least two extinguishers must be provided if flammables are present.
All Contractor-supplied flammable and combustible materials must be kept away from
sparks, heaters, and any other heat source.
Only metal safety cans with flash-arresting screens may be used.
4.08 HEATERS, PORTABLE
All Contractor heaters brought on-site must be Factory Mutual and/or Underwriters
Laboratory approved.
Each Contractor must notify the Project Safety Coordinator to review and approve all
liquid/gas fueled Contractor heaters brought onto the site prior to use. The use of
liquid/gas fueled Contractor heaters inside of buildings requires the approval of the
Project Safety Coordinator:

Section 6 - 10

6.03 DISCUSSION OF COMMON PHYSICAL HAZARDS
A. Heat Stress
Adverse climatic conditions are important considerations in planning and conducting site operations.
High ambient temperature can result in health effects ranging from transient heat fatigue, physical
discomfort, reduced efficiency, personal injury, and increased accident probability, to serious illness
or death.
Heat exhaustion results from sustained exertion in heat, combined with failure to replace water and
salts lost in sweat. Symptoms include fatigue, nausea, headache, and clammy, moist skin, which
may be flushed or pale. Replacement of water and salts is required to recover; victims may faint upon
standing.
Heat syncope results in fainting, and is caused by standing immobile in heat. Pooling of venous
blood in the dilated vessels of the skin and lower body causes it. Recovery is complete and rapid
following rest in a reclining position at a cool location.
The most serious heat illness is heat stroke. Heat stroke is a medical emergency. Treatment must
be immediate, and professional medical attention must be obtained. Heat stroke is caused by a
combination of factors including heavy exertion in heat, inadequate replacement of fluids, poor
physical condition, and individual susceptibility. Failure of the sweat response occurs, leading to a
rapidly accelerated increase in core temperature. The victim usually has hot, dry red skin, and if
conscious, is confused; convulsions may be present. The victim must be cooled immediately. Heat
stroke may be fatal if treatment is incomplete or delayed.
B. Manual Lifting
Manual lifting is common to site work activities; and is a potential source of serious injury. The
common concern about lifting is causing an injury to the back; but improper lifting techniques can also
injure the neck, shoulder, knee, and hands.
Site conditions (poor footing, inadequate lighting, and weather) can compound the hazards
associated with lifting. To minimize potential hazards from manual lifting, follow the guidance
presented below:
1. Prior to lifting, size up the job; look at the weight, size, shape, and condition of the object to be
lifted, and decide if you can lift it unassisted.
2. Obtain help if the lift will exceed your abilities or if lift weight exceeds 50 lb. When
lifting/carrying an object with another person, the weight should be evenly distributed, and
movements coordinated.
3. If you are lifting an object on your own, place your feet close to the object, get a good grip
(palm of the hand is stronger than fingers, watch for sharp edges, nails, splinters), and
straighten your back.
4. Keeping your back as straight as comfortably possible, keep the object close to your body, and
use the muscles in your legs to lift the object. Complete the lift before turning, and turn by
repositioning your feet, never twist while lifting or carrying an object.
Section 6 - 11

5. Reverse the procedure when setting the object down, and keep your fingers clear of pinch
points.
6.04 RESPIRATORY PROTECTION (GENERAL)
Respiratory protection programs will be conducted in accordance with Each Contractor’s specific
Respiratory Protection program.
Only properly cleaned and maintained, NIOSH approved respirators shall be used on site.
Selection of respirators will be made pursuant to Each Contractor’s Respiratory Protection Program.
Any variance from this program will require the approval of the Corporate Director of Safety.
Air purifying cartridges shall be replaced at the beginning of each shift or when load-up or
breakthrough occurs.
No employee shall be assigned to tasks requiring the use of respirators if, based upon the most
recent examination, a physician determined that the employee will be unable to function normally
wearing a respirator or that the safety or health of the employee or other employees will be impaired
by use of a respirator. This shall be so stated on the medical certificate.
Only employees who have had pre-issue training, qualitative fit tests, annual re-training, and fit tests
thereafter shall be allowed to work in atmospheres where respirators are required.
If an employee has demonstrated difficulty in breathing during the fitting test or during use, he or she
shall have a supplemental physical examination to determine the cause of the difficulty.
Respirators will be assigned to individuals for their exclusive use.
Respiratory devices will be cleaned, sanitized, and inspected at the completion of each shift’s
activities.
Excessive facial hair (beards and mustaches) prohibits proper face fit and effectiveness of
respirators. Persons required to wear respirators must not have excessive growth of beard. All
personnel wearing respirators will be required to be clean-shaven prior to each day's shift.
Regular eyeglasses cannot be worn with fullface respirators (breaks the facepiece seal). Inserts must
be used.
The respiratory protection utilized on site will be in compliance with applicable OSHA regulations.
Where respirators are designated for protection against particulate contaminants, the employee shall
be permitted to change canisters or cartridges whenever an increase in breathing resistance (loadup)
is detected.
6.05 LIGHT EQUIPMENT AND MOTOR VEHICLES
All traffic regulations, instruction and signs must be rigidly observed.
Section 6 - 12

Motor vehicles entering the site may have to check in before entering.
All vehicles must be maintained so that they are in a safe operable condition.
The maximum speed is 10 M.P.H. in non-congested areas. All Contractor personnel should be
advised of the speed limit in the Site. Reduced speeds are required on roadways where personnel
and equipment are exposed to vehicle traffic.
No one is to ride equipment other than the operator. Passengers allowed only if manufactured
seating is provided or with written permission from the equipment manufacturer. Transporting
workers in a truck requires an approved seat.
Seat belts shall be worn by all employees operating any motor vehicle or any equipment with rollover
protection structure while on the project.
All equipment shall be inspected daily by each Contractor before use by the operator. Formal
inspections must be made at 30-day intervals with proper documentation maintained on-site by each
Contractor.
1. All Contractor employees driving job site motor vehicles shall have a valid driver’s license for:
a. The state in which the employee resides.
b. For the class vehicle driven.
2. Drivers of vehicles over 26,000 pounds gvw are required by Federal and State Departments of
Transportation regulations to possess a Commercial Drivers License (CDL).
6.06 HEAVY EQUIPMENT/MATERIAL HANDLING AND EARTHMOVING EQUIPMENT
Equipment shall be maintained in good working order. All vital parts such as motors, chassis, blades,
bladeholders, tracks, drives, hydraulic and pneumatic mechanisms, and transmissions must be
