Now I need to know which extinguisher I should use to put out a Class A fire that involves wood. Which extinguisher should I use?

"Air-pressurized Water Extinguishers (APW)" is the correct answer.

Hi. I'm Arun. I'm trying to study for my fire extinguisher test and I could really use some help. I need to find a fire extinguisher which can be used in the commercial kitchen. It's one that suitable for putting out grease fires.

"Class K - Dry and Wet Chemical Extinguisher"

A crane boom

is an incline spar, strut, or other long member supporting the hoisting tackle.

A load

is the weight of the object being lifted by the crane. This weight includes the load block and hook, wire rope, rigging, boom attachments, and ancillary attachments.

Who should be trained on the contents of an Emergency Action Plan?

Every employee

Main Cranes, hazards

Contact with Power Lines Overturns: (Weather, outrigger failure, overweight) Mechanical Failures Falls: (Missing handralls, bad driveing)

Distracted types while driving

1. Visual: looking away from the roadway. 2. Auditory: hearing noises that prevent you from making the best use of your hearing or that draw your attention away from driving. 3. Biomechanical (or Manual): doing something physically that is not related to driving like reaching for something or taking your hands off the wheel. 4. Cognitive: mentally thinking about something other than driving. Remember that texting and driving combines all four of these types of distractions into one, which increases your risk and the risk of other drivers on the road of being in an accident. Never text and drive!

How far must you be from power lines at a minimum while operating a crane?

10 ft for operating crane. 20 ft other equipment or operating areas.

According to Federal law, anyone what age or younger is prohibited from driving on public roads as part of their job?

16 or younger 0-0 (This should be higher)

Fire extinguishers Types

A: Wood, fabric, common materials B: Liquids or gasses that Burn. C: Electracal D: Combustible Metals (such as magnesium, titanium, zirconium, sodium, and potassium) K: Cookign fires, from fats or animal oils.

Which of the following requirements must employers satisfy? A. Provide PPE necessary to protect employees who are operating hand and power tools and are exposed to hazards. B. Comply with OSHA training and inspection standards related to hand and power tools. C. Determine which manufacturer's requirements and recommendations for a tool should be followed. D. Do not issue or permit the use of unsafe hand tools.

All expect C I suppose for power tools to not listen to what the manufacture says.

What is an EAP

An emergency action plan (EAP) is a written document required by particular OSHA standards. Eap kinda feels like EEP- and liek you don't want to EEP when the building is on fire.

car accident

Are caused the most by distraction.

Fight or Flight.

Based on certain things like local firehouses or weak areas. You are trained if you have to fight though. (Your safety is your first thing though)

Cranes can be overturned as a result of unknown load weights. As a crane operator, Pieter must ensure that the load is within the load chart ratings for which two elements?

Boom length and load radius (This of it like the Variables that cause the load wait to be "unknown")

Types of jacks

Bottle jack. These are used to lift everything from cars to houses. (Kinda Recreational use) Car lift which can be seen at most automobile shops. (Trained use).

Remember not to use tools that are ________ in any way.

Broken

Driving company vehicles or for work

Card 1: Management Commitment & Employee Involvement Safety should be an ongoing concern and conversation between all levels of the organization. Card 2: Written Policies & Procedures Within your company there should be materials in place detailing ways to stay safe while on the road. Card 3: Driver Agreements A clear understanding of the employer and employee's responsibilities should be in place. Card 4: Motor Vehicle Record Checks A clear history for all drivers and vehicles is imperative. Card 5: Crash Reporting & Investigation Crash reporting and investigations should be complete and up to date. Card 6: Vehicle Selection, Inspection, & Maintenance All vehicles should be properly selected, inspected, and maintained. Card 7: Disciplinary Action System A meaningful disciplinary action system should be in place and followed. Card 8: Reward/Incentive Program Rewards and incentives for safe driving can cultivate a culture of safe driving. Card 10: Regulatory Compliance Compliance with safety and operational regulations is required, but will also lead to fewer

Driveing distractions

Card 1: The Driver An accident may occur if a driver is driving too fast, has distractions, or is drowsy. Card 2: The Vehicle Vehicle failure can also cause an accident to happen. Some common examples of this are having a flat tire or brakes failing. Card 3: The Road The state of the road, be its design, slickness from weather conditions, or debris that may be on it, all contribute to accidents. Card 4: The Weather Weather conditions such as fog, rain, and snow all contribute to accidents

Lifting operations For cranes.

Center of Gravity: (Point where weight is evenly distributed) -For cranes this is based off the heavyest weights -I call it COG Leverage (When lifting rotation causes shifts of COG. ) Stability (Relationship of the load weight, Boom angle & radius to the center of gravity of the load.) - It also takes into acount Ground strength Structural Integrity (main frame, crawler truck and/or outrigger supports, boom sections, and attachments.)

Fire extinguishers Types (with Memory devices)

Class A: Ordinary combustible material fires (such as wood, cloth, paper) A for Average or Alright lets start a fire. Class B: Flammables/liquids, gases, greases B for butter the pan but not to much cause thats a fire hazard. Blumper fluid or bubbles to remind you of liquids. or gas Class C: Electrical/energized electrical equipment C for Current or charged like Electricity Class D: Combustible metals (such as magnesium, titanium, zirconium, sodium, and potassium) Dang that Banana's Potassium has some bag or Desnse metals make Destructive explosions Class K: Combustible cooking media/vegetable or animal oils and fats. Kooking. But with A K. Or Kick that cook out hes not doing a good job.

A good emergency evacuation floor plan.

Designate primary and secondary exits. No emergency exits in restrooms. Exit away from rooms with hazardous materials. No emergency exits into narrow passages Exit signs show near areas. Designate an assembly area. No use of elevators. Indicate exits with wheelchair access. Indicate the employee's current location.

Avoid places with wide-span roofs such as auditoriums or cafeterias. Get under a piece of sturdy furniture. Use your arms to protect your head and neck. If in a mobile home, get out and find shelter elsewhere.

Yes

Is it safe to use this table saw

Hoist

Is used to lift and lower the load. is used to lift and lower the load.

How does a Fire Prevention Plan benefit your workplace?

It's less likely that a fire will occur. It's less likely that injuries will occur during an emergency. It's less likely that damage will occur during an emergency. It's less likely that employees will encounter a large fire. (So Even though it says PREVENTION, its not actually stoping fires from happening.

EAP steps

M. Uses maps (like the ones we have in school for fire drills) A. Actions (What should workers do?) R. Reasonably Expected Emergencies (Fire + god's will aka nautral)

Need a Licensed since they basically have the power of guns

If you're in a moving vehicle during a tornado:

HOW TO USE A FIRE EXTNGIUSHER

PASS PULL: Pull the pin. This will also break the tamper seal. AIM: Aim low, pointing the extinguisher nozzle (or its horn or hose) at the base of the fire. NOTE: Do not touch the plastic discharge horn on CO2 extinguishers, as it gets very cold and may damage skin. SQUEEZE: Squeeze the handle to release the extinguishing agent. SWEEP: Sweep from side to side at the base of the fire until it appears to be out. Watch the area. If the fire re-ignites, repeat steps 2-4.
