Defective and Non-Defective Hand tools

Introduction:


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
There are many ways of identifying hand tools. One of these is to identify them according
to their function. However, awareness of defective and non-defective hand tools is a primordial
concern of workers/welders to be effective in their jobs.
Below are the recommended practices to identify defective and non-defective hand tools.
1. Visual inspection:
Defective tools can easily be distinguished from the functional ones through visual
inspection. The physical appearance of tools will describe such characteristics as dullness,
sharpness, dismantled parts, and unevenness of the teeth of the cutting tools.
2. Functionality:
Another way is to check the quality of the manufactured tools. Is it already susceptible to
wear and tear? Has it already exceeded its service life? Has it passed the manufacturer‟s
quality control test?
A few pieces of the hand tools issued in the shop can be subjected for
Condemnation they are no longer serviceable.
Some hand tools issued for years in shops and few pieces of these can be subjected for
condemnation.
3. Performance:
Performance of hand tools is determined not only during the actual use but also after use to
find out whether the hand tools are still worth using.
4. Service span:
Hand tools are issued to shop teacher at one time. However, this must be recorded to
determine when it was received and how long the tools have been kept in the shop. A hand tool
which is too old is unsafe for both the students and workers. Such tool should be marked
defective and segregated from the good ones.

Procedures on using different hand tools and equipment

Hacksaw
Steps in Mounting Blade to the Metal Frame
TEETH
1. Select the correct type of blade.

2. Attach the blade to the frame by pointing the teeth away from the handle.
3. Tighten the wing nut of the handle until the blade is tight enough.
Safety Measures:
Tighten the wing nut securely enough to prevent from buckling and breaking.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
Steps in Fixing Stock In Metal Vise and Operation Position
25-30 cm
1. Fasten the stock in vise with lay-out line as close as possible to the end of the used vise
jaws.
2. Stand with your feet 25 to 30 centimeters apart and one foot forward.
3. Lean the body a little forward as shown in the drawing
Steps in Sawing the Stock
1. Start the saw by guiding the blade with the thumb of your left hand while taking one or
two light strokes with your right hand.
2. Move the saw with a light steady and even motion of about 40 to 50 strokes per minute.
3. Apply pressure during the forward stroke and release during the return strokes.
4. Hold the stock with your left hand to avoid cuts upon sawing with your right hand
Steps in Bending 90o with Ball Peen Hammer
1. Force the metal over the vise jaws using left-hand.

2. Strike it several times near the hand with flat head of a hammer.

lOMoARcPSD|44597009
Steps in Squaring off a 90 o Bend
3. Place the metal in the bench vise and tighten strongly.

4. Strike the metal with the flat head of a hammer in the direction of the arrow indicated.
Circular Bend
1. Place the metal over a pipe or round bar and clamp in a bench vise.
2. Strike the metal with a glancing blow using the flat head of a hammer until the desired
curve is obtained.
Cold Chisel
Cold Chisel is used for cutting and chipping cold metals.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
The illustration above presents the Two Hands Positioning in cold chiseling which shows
the proper grip in using the tool. For heavy work, hand gripping of tool should be strong and tight;
for fine and small work, hold the tool lightly.
Look at the person work with the ball peen hammer and the chisel, as shown in the
illustration above. A cold chisel will cut metals only if you strike it with the flat head of a ball peen
hammer. The complete safety protection device and the body position when performing the task
(chiseling) are evidently done.
Wrench
Wrench is used for loosening and tightening light and heavy nuts and bolts. There are
various kinds and sizes of wrenches designed according to use and function. It is tool steel
on movable jaws.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
A repair worker often uses tools to remove and replace damaged parts. The wrenches
are used to tighten and loosen the nut and bolts that hold the parts in place. Other tools are
used to hold parts for cutting, welding and other works.
Wash type of wrench is usually used for only one or two different jobs. Figure above
shows a repair worker using a box of wrench and an open-end wrench to remove a deck lid bolt
in an automobile. The ends of the wrench are offset (the hand is lower than the handle). In this
way, the worker‟s hand is above the surface of any object as the nut of bolt is turned.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
A combination wrench of open-end and a box-end will tell the advantage of box-end over
open lid. Box-end wrench has complete contact with six points on the bolt head. This completely
surrounds the grip of the bolt head or nut allowing less chances of wrench slippage.
Screw Drivers
Cross Head Flat Head
Screw drivers are usually made in different sets. This tool is used to tighten and loosen
screws by pushing or pulling screws in a rotating manner. In the above illustration, a set of
standard and Phillips tips of different sizes are shown.
Screwdriver is driven by fully turning the blade in clockwise motion until the entire screw
is removed from the wood and metal. The purpose is to hold or fix two pieces and by no chances
to space apart even opposing force occurs.

1. ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Maintenance of hand tools and machines are both primordial concerns of a repair
technician in the welding shops and/or in the welding production. The activities should be on
schedule and with proper coordination with the production people. The term “repair” and
“maintenance” works mean differently. Repair, unusually focuses on the program of works done
in the operation of power plants in machines that are in trouble of stopping its function. While the
term “maintenance” means a scheduled or a planned visit of tools or equipments for inspection
and from there, reports and recommendation developed and the next tasks to be decided such
as cleaning, application of lubricants, dismantling and etc.
Some of the simple maintenance activities for hand tools, and the maintenance schedule should
be posted in a visible corner of the shop where
everybody can read it.
 Lubricating. A task performed in the shop/production. Through the application of

lubricant substance to the identified items in parts like barrels, rollers, springs, bearing,
bolts and nuts, and other automotive parts.
 Tightening/Loosening. In an assembly of structures, we have tools for fittings that

need to be tightened and loosened and in as much as they pose high risk to safety.
Tightening bolts and nuts and other fittings requires procedures should carried out
compliance.
 Tool for hand Sharpening. Some tools need to be sharpened such as blades of knife,
cold chisel, punches and many others. To do hand sharpening for hand tools requires
techniques and application. In some multi knives cutter, manufacturers produce knife
sharpening system to hold or clamp the blade for ensuring strong blade to stone contact
during sharpening and also provided with course to fine honing stones. For cold chisel
and punches, the right file-size and grades are used for repairing the defective anvil
curve.
 Simple Repair. Repair practices of hand tools are still available anytime. But, to some
extent, tools are checked yearly and many of the hand tools are eligible for condemnation
and the whole items are to be replaced by a new unit. However, there are instances that
minor repair can be performed, like replacement of wooden handle of a hammer and
mushroomed head of a cold chisel.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
 Cleaning. Simple process applied to hand tools. The cleaning approach may differ from
one another. For example, cleaning of the rack corners of hand tools by using air vacuum
or by a piece of clothes. Similar process may be applied to identical cleaning situations.
By piece of cloth By air vacuum
2. PROPER STORAGE OF HAND TOOLS/EQUIPMENT
(5S Implementation)
 Clearly label machinery, equipment, part, jigs, tools, and their locations, so that
everything is understandable, and visible to everyone at a glance.
 Don‟t pile up jigs, tools, and materials without separators (shelves). They should be
picked up easily.
 Rearrange machinery and equipment to make smooth production flow, when
necessary.
 Maintain the space around the fire extinguishers and evacuation passages free.

INTRODUCTION:
The four fundamental operation (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) skills
should be developed in Shielded Metal Arc Work (SMAW) doing jobs. Inaccurate operation
would mean waste of time, effort, materials and the quality of the finish product. The skill in
measuring starts with the ability to add, subtract, multiply and divide.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
WHOLE NUMBERS
Are numbers that have no decimal or fractional parts. It can be ODD or EVEN numbers.
ODD numbers are those that cannot be divided by two (2). EVEN numbers are numbers that can
be divided by 2 with an exact number of times.
Examples:
Whole Numbers - 1 , 3 , 15 , 20 , 45 , 64 , 75 , 102 , etc.
Odd Numbers - 3 , 5 , 7 , 9 , 25 , 51 , 79 , 101 , etc.
Even Numbers - 2 , 4 , 6 , 8 , 12 , 20 , 24 , 50 , etc.
ADDITION
Addition is the process of combining two or more arithmetical or algebraic quantities in

one sum. It is the most common operation in mathematics indicated by a plus (+) sign. It is also
used when numbers are added horizontally or vertically. When more than two numbers are
added vertically, no sign is required. The sum is the result obtained from adding two or more
numbers.
To add whole numbers horizontally is more difficult than adding them, vertically. Example,
20 + 15 + 30 + 25 = 90, this method is not commonly used because mistakes can occur more
easily.
THE NUMBER PLACE VALUE

We can find the value of a digit based on its place in the number.
Example: 3,452
 Digit 2 is in the Ones place

 Digit 5 is in the Tens place
 Digit 4 is in the Hundreds place
 Digit 3 is in the Thousands place
STEPS IN ADDING WITHOUT REGROUPING
 Always add the digits in the ones place first.

 Add the digits in the tens place next.
 Add the digits in the hundreds place.
 Add the digits in the thousands place and so on

INTRODUCTION:


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
The Metric System is known as the most common measurement system used in most
places of the world. There are common prefixes used to represent as multipliers. For example, in
a distance of 2,000 meters can also be expressed as 2 Kilometers.
The English System on the other hand is also known as the British (US) System likewise
commonly used anywhere in the world. This system uses the Inch, Foot and Pound as the basic
units of measurement. Decimal inch based on tenths and hundredths to simplify measurements.
It is commonly used by Engineers, Architects, Surveyors, Draftsmen etc. For better
understanding of the systems one must be familiar with the conversion of the English units of
measurement to the metric system and vice versa by applying the appropriate conversion factors
and procedures.
Measurement Systems
The basic measurement in the English system is the Yard divided into Feet and Inches
abbreviated as follows: Yard – Yd. , Feet – Ft. , and Inches as In. The Metric System or the
Systems International (SI) use Meter as the basic unit of measure divided into Decimeters,
Centimeters, and Millimeters with the following abbreviations when used.
Meter _ m Centimeter _ cm
Decimeter _ dm Millimeter _ mm
Measuring accurately is skill that should be developed. Inaccurate measurements would

mean waste of time, effort, materials and the quality of the finish product. The skill in measuring
starts with the ability to read and interpret the systems of measurement.
The measuring tool available in the workshop contains English System in one side and
Metric System on the other. In the English System, the inch is divided into 16 graduations. The
first graduation reads 1/16, the second 2/16 or 1/8, the third as 3/16 and so on.

Ratio

lOMoARcPSD|44597009
The ratio of two numbers is a comparison of two quantities. It is expressed as the indicated
quotient of two numbers called TERMS of the ratio. The ratio of C to D maybe expressed as C :
D, read as C is to D, C/D or C ÷ D. The numbers 4/6, 6 : 9, 8 : 12 or 14 : 21 have the same value
as the ratio is 2 : 3.
When the ratios are between measurements, the term of the ratio must be expressed in the
same units. The three angles of a triangle are usually expressed as 1 : 2 : 3, read as 1 is to 2 is
to 3. If the sum of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees, the measurement of each angle can be
determined using the following procedure.
Examples:
I. Find the measurement of each angle of a triangle, if the ratio of the angles of a triangle is
1 : 2 : 3 and the sum of the is 180 degrees.
Solution:
Let X = measurement of the first angle
2X = measurement of the second angle
3X = measurement of the third angle
X + 2X + 3X = 180 degrees – sum of the 3 angles of a triangle

6X = 180 degrees - sum of X‟s
X = 30 degrees - measurement of the first angle
2X = 2 (30) = 60 degrees – measurement of the second angle
3X = 3 (30) = 90 degrees – measurement of the third angle
II. Find the ratio of 4 hours to 2 days.

= 4 hours to 2 days
= 4 hours to 48 hours
= 1:12 (dividing 4 and 48 by 4)
III. Find the ratio of 15 centimeters to 2.5 meters.

= 15 centimeters to 250 centimeters
= 3:50 (dividing 15 and 250 by 5) 15 ÷ 5 = 3 and 250 ÷ 5 = 50
IV. Pedro has a box containing 5 ballpens,3 erasers, 2 pencils and 1 stapler. What is the
ratio of pencils to erasers?
The answer can be expressed as fraction, with the numerator equal to the first quantity
and the denominator equal to the second, the answer could be 2/3 or writing it 2 is to 3 or
2 : 3.
What about the ratio of ballpens to all the contents of Pedro‟s box?
There were 5 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 11 total contents of box, so the answer could be expressed as

5/11, 5 is to 11 or 5 : 11.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
Proportion Is the equality of two (2) ratios.
The Principle of Proportion:
The product of the Means is equal to the product of the Extremes.
Illustrative Example:
TERMS
1st 2nd 3rd 4th
1 3 = 4 12
| I__________________I |
|__________________________________________________|
Note: 3 and 4 are the Means
1 and 12 are the Extremes
The second and third terms are the means, while the first and the fourth terms are the extremes
of the Proportion. The product of 2nd and 3rd terms = 12 (3 x 4 = 12) The product of the 1st and 4th
terms = 12 (1 x 12 = 12) Thus, the product of the means is equal to the product of the extremes.
Examples: A) 2 : 4 = 5 : X = 2x = 20 (2 x X) = 2X & 4 x 5 = 20
= x = 10
B) 4/X : 2/8 = 4 : X = 2 : 8 = 2X = 32
X = 16
Proportion is an equation with a ratio on each side. It is a statement that two ratios are equal .
Example: 3/8 = 6/16
When one of the four numbers in a proportion is unknown, cross product maybe used to
find the unknown number. Question marks or letter x and n are frequently used in place of the
un-known number.
Example:
Solve for n: ½ = n/4 Using cross product, we multiply 2 x n

= 4, so 2 x n = 4
= 2n =4 (4 ÷ 2 = 2)
n=2

COMPUTING FOR AREA AND VOLUME
In the metal trades, common formulas related to plane and solid figures are used for
laying-out jobs. For example, a welder maybe required to lay-out and build a cylindrical tank to
hold specified number of gallons of liquid. By applying the volume formula for cylinders, the
welder can determine the size of cylindrical tank.
AREA

lOMoARcPSD|44597009
Area is the number of unit squares equal to the surface of an object. For example, a
standard size of a piece of plywood contains 32 square foot (sq. ft.). Because it measures 4 feet
by 8 feet so, 4 x 8 = 32 square feet.
Area is expressed in square inches, square feet and other units of measure. A square inch
measure 1” x 1” or each equivalent. A square foot contains 144 square inches by multiplying 12”
x 12” = 144 sq. inches. The area of any plane figure can be determine by applying the proper
formula.
CIRCLE
When the diameter of a circle is known, the circumference is found by using the following
formula.
C= πD Where: C= Circumference
π = 3.1416
D = Diameter
Example:
1. What is the circumference of a 20” diameter circle?
Solution: C = πD
C = 3.1415 x 20
C = 62.832 inches
Finding the circumference of circle (Diameter)
When the diameter is known, the circumference of a circle is found by applying the following
formula.
C=2πr Where: C = Circumference

A = 0.7854 x (28 x 28)
A = 0.7854 x 784
A = 615.75 Square Inches
Finding the area of a circle (Radius)
When the radius is known, the area of a circle is found by applying the following formula.
A=πr ² Where A = Area

Π = 3.1416
r ²= radius squared
Example:
4. What is the area of a 14” radius circle?
Solution: A = π r²
A = 3.1416 x (14 x 14)
A = 3.1416 x 196
A = 615.754 sq. inches
Finding the area of square or a rectangle
The area of square or a rectangle can be found by applying this formula.
A=LxW Where A = Area

L = Length
W = Width
Example:
5. What is the area of a 22‟ x 16‟ storage room?


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
Solution: A=LxW
A = 22 x 16
A = 352 sq. ft.
Finding Area of a Triangle

½ = Constant
b = base
h = height
Example:
6. What is the area of a triangle with a 10” base and 12” height?
Solution: A=½bh
A = ½ x (10 x 12)
A = ½ x 120
A = 60 sq. inches
VOLUME
I s the three- dimensional size of an object measured in cubic units. For example, the
volume of a standard size of concrete block is 1,024 cubic inches, because 8 x 8 x 16 is equals
to 1,024 cu. In.
Volume is expressed in cubic inches, cubic feet, cubic yards and other units of measure. A
cubic inch measures 1” x 1” x 1” or its equivalent. A cubic foot contains 1,728 cubic inches
because 12” x 12” x 12” = 1,728 cu. In. A cubic Yard contains 27 cu. Ft. because 3‟ x 3‟ x 3‟ = 27
cu. Ft. The Volume of a solid figure can be determined by applying the proper formula.
Finding the volume of a rectangular solid

Read Information Sheet 1.2 very well then find out how much you can
Safety Signs and Symbols
Introduction
Safety symbols are pictures sometimes called safety pictographs, pictograms, or

pictorials. They are used in place of, or as a supplement to written words. These symbols
provide warnings or alerts about a possible hazard.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
Because pictures may convey information better than words, graphic symbols are
added to precautionary labels to show major workplace dangers like welding or cutting
hazards.
The use of symbols on precautionary labels is optional, and is recommended for

the following reasons:
 Symbols may show and help to explain the hazards quickly.
 Symbols can be understood by both readers and non-readers.
 Symbols may be multilingual and usually translate directly into all
languages.
Welding and cutting industry has adopted standardized symbols and uniform
methods of use to avoid user confusion and to supplement and reinforce the written
message.
Words
The large word at the top of the label is called the signal word. It is used in
combination with a specific colored background and combined with the safety alert
symbol to indicate the degree of seriousness of a potential hazard. Because of its colored
background, the signal word is usually the first element that you notice when looking at a
safety label. According to International Standard Organization (ISO), there are three (3)
choices for a signal word:
1. DANGER. Used to indicate an imminently hazardous situation which, if

avoided, will result in death or serious injury. The use of this signal word should be
limited to the most extreme situations.
2.
3. WARNING. This indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not

avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
4. CAUTION. Used to indicate a potentially hazardous situation which, if not

avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. CAUTION may also be used
without the safety color symbol (the triangle with exclamation mark) to indicate
property-damage-only.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
Color
Since color is typically the first thing that draws the attention of the viewer, the
color-coded surrounding shapes act as a first level of meaning and, as you draw closer to
the sign, you are able to distinguish the specific information conveyed by the graphic
symbol.
Example A is an ISO “Warning Safety Sign”. This type of label is meant to tell
what the hazard is (e.g. “fire hazard”).
Example B is an ISO “Prohibition Safety Sign”. This label tells about an action not
to take in order to avoid a hazard (e.g. “no open flame”).
Example C is an ISO “Mandatory Action Safety Sign”. This label defines an action
that needs to be taken to avoid the hazard (e.g. “read manual”).
Classification of Safety Signs
1. Regulatory Signs- signs contain instructions. Failure to comply with them constitutes
an offense under law, standing orders, company policy, etc.
a. Mandatory signs are regulatory signs which indicate that an instruction must be
carried out. When symbols are used they are white on a blue disc. Text-only
mandatory signs are black on white in a portrait format.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
2. Prohibition signs are regulatory signs which indicate that an action or activity is
not allowed. The symbolic shape used on prohibition signs is the red circle and slash
over a black symbol. Prohibition signs may contain only the red circle and text with no
symbol.
3. Warning Signs- signs which warn of a hazard or hazardous condition that is not likely
to be life-threatening. The symbolic shape used on warning signs is black triangle with
yellow interior and black symbol. The word warning is not required to print on the sign,
although it is often used for added impact.
4. Danger Signs- signs which warn of a hazard or hazardous condition is likely life-
threatening. It is recommended that symbols not be used on danger signs.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
5. Fire Signs- advice the location of fire alarms and firefighting equipment. Fire signs
contain a white symbol and/or text on a red background.
6. Emergency Information Signs- indicate the location of, or direction to,

emergency- related facilities (exits, first aid, safety equipment, etc.). These signs feature
a white symbol and/or text on a green background.
7. General Information Signs- communicate information of a general nature in order to

avoid misunderstanding or confusion. These signs often refer to housekeeping, company
practices and logistics.

1. Welding shield/helmet is used to protect our face and eyes from the arc rays and heat, and
the spatter from molten metal. The arc is viewed through a filter which reduces the intensity
of radiation but allows a safe amount of light to pass for viewing the weld pool and end of the
electrode.
1.1 Helmet type welding shield is more convenient to use because it allows both
hands to work freely.
1.2 Hand-held shield allows only one hand to work freely.
2. Leather jacket is made of chrome leather and prevents the entry of sparks between
our clothes and body.

lOMoARcPSD|44597009
Proper Use of Personal Protective Equipment
The primary approach in any safety effort is to maintain or change the physical
environment so that accidents would not occur. However, it is necessary for economic reasons
or in temporary or changing conditions to safeguard personnel by equipping them individually
with specialized personal protective equipment (PPE). Although the use of PPE is an important
consideration in the development of a safety and health program, it should not be used
permanently for maintaining a safe and healthy work environment. In general, government
regulations list the use of PPE as a case of last resort. Analyzing accident situations is done to
determine whether PPE can prevent a recurrence. When work conditions cannot be made more
safely clearly PPE is necessary.
Proper Training
To obtain the worker‟s complete compliance with the requirements to wear the PPE, the
following factors must be considered:
1. the extent to which the personnel who must wear the equipment understand its
necessity
2. the ease and comfort with which it can be worn with a minimum of interference with
normal procedures
3. the available economic, social, and disciplinary sanctions which can be used to
influence the attitudes of the workers
Head Protection
Safety hats should be inspected prior to their use.
 Inspect suspension systems that show evidence of materials cracking, tearing, fraying
or other signs of deterioration. Suspension should provide a minimum clearance of 1
to 1.25 inch between the top of the worker‟s head and the inside crown of the hat.
 Check any signs of cracks of perforations of brim or shell, deformation of shell, or
evidence or exposure to excessive heat, chemicals or radiation.
 Remove any accumulation of conductive material on or inside the shell that cannot be
removed prior to use.
Objects should not be placed inside the safety hat between the shell and the suspension
device. This space is designed so an impact will not transmit to the head of the worker.
Safety hats should be kept free of abrasions, scrapes, and nicks and should not be
deliberately dropped, thrown, or otherwise abused because they will lose their protective
qualities.
Ventilation should not be drilled in safety hats.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
Eye and Face Protection
Eye protectors must meet the minimum requirements:
 Provide adequate protection against the particular hazards for which they are
designed
 Be reasonably comfortable when worn under the designated conditions
 Fit snugly without interfering with the movements or vision of the wearer
 Be durable.
 Be capable of being disinfected.
 Be kept clean and in good repair
 Design, construction, testing, and use of eye and face protection must be in
accordance with ANZI Z8.1-1989. The fitting of goggles and safety spectacles should
be performed by someone skilled in the procedure. Prescribed safety spectacles
should be fitted only by a qualified optical person. Safety spectacles require special
frames. Combinations of normal street wear frames with safety lenses are not in
compliance with the required standards for eye protectors.
Ear Protection
The prevention of excessive noise exposure is the only way to avoid hearing damage.
Engineering and administrative control must be used if the sound levels are exceeded. If such
controls fail to reduce the sound levels within the level specified, personal hearing protection
must be used. Molded earplugs should be individually fitted by a professional.
Some earplugs are disposable, to be used one time and then thrown away. The non-
disposable type should be cleaned after each use for proper protection.
Earmuffs must make a perfect seal around the ear to be effective. Glasses, long
sideburns, long hair and facial movements, such as chewing may reduce protection. Special
equipment is available for use with glasses or beards.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
Foot and Leg Protection
For protection of feet and legs from falling or rolling objects, sharp objects, molten metal,
hot surfaces, and wet slippery surfaces, workers should use appropriate foot guards, safety
shoes, boots and leggings.
Never wear open-toed footwear while working with hot metal or welding apparatus.
Safety Belts, Lifelines and Lanyards
Lifelines, safety belts, and lanyards are used only for safeguarding employees. Any
lifeline, safety belt, or lanyard are actually subjected to in-serving loading, as distinguished from
static load testing shall be immediately removed from service and shall not be used again for
employee safeguarding.

LEARNING OUTCOME 3
Identify safety and health requirements and policy
 Safe handling of tools, equipment and materials is properly observed in
accordance with OHS requirements and industry/company policies.
 Safety label and tag of tools and equipment are strictly followed.
Pre-use Inspection and Checking Procedures
INTRODUCTION
Safety and health inspection is a central part of most safety, health and environmental
protection programs, such practices a reliable way for identifying and eliminating conditions that
could contribute to accidents, illnesses, or environmental damages.
Safety inspection is a tool in the prevention of accident. If regular inspection of existing

potentially unsafe conditions is not done, accidents in the workplace are likely to happen.
Elements of Effective Safety and Health Inspection Programs
An effective safety and health inspection program requires the following:
1. Sound knowledge of the facility. Familiarity with the facilities of the establishment is
an effective tool in determining things are to be inspected and how often these things
should be inspected.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
2. Knowledge of relevant standards, regulations and codes. The reference of all safety
and health rules and regulations of the company should always be the established
local legislations and codes. These standard regulations will be our guide in
assessing whether our workplace is safe or not.
3. Systematic inspection system. In occupational safety and health, time is very
important. An established inspection system will facilitate inspection activities and will
allow the designated safety inspector to improve the workplace based on identified
hazards as early as possible.
4. Method of reporting, evaluating and using the data. Evaluation of effectiveness of the
program is a must to determine whether a program is a success or a failure.
Inspection should be documented. Reports prepared and submitted and other safety
and health data are vital in evaluating the program.
Safety and Health Inspection Cycle
1. Purpose
The primary purpose of inspection is to detect potential hazards so they can be

corrected before an accident occurs. Inspection should be conducted in an organization
to locate and report existing and potential unsafe conditions or activities. It is important
that every potential hazard found in workplaces must be corrected to ensure that no one
will be injured , or one will be exposed to any diseases and that working environment will
not be contaminated by hazardous chemicals emitted in the process.
2. Inspection Priorities
Who will conduct the inspection?
a. Safety professionals. They spearhead the inspection activity

b. Company or facility management. They demonstrates commitment to maintain
a safe working environment.
c. First – line Supervisors or Foreman. Continually monitoring the workplace.
d. Employees. They inspect the workplace and any tools, equipment, and
machinery that will be used. Any defects that the employee is not authorized
to correct should be reported immediately to the supervisor.
e. Maintenance personnel. He is responsible for locating and correcting hazards.
f. Joint Safety and Health Committee. It conducts regular inspection as part of
its functions.
Items to be inspected are as follows;

a. Environmental factors
b. Hazardous supplies and materials
c. Production and related equipments
d. Power source equipment
e. Electrical equipment
f. Hand tools
g. Personal Protective Equipment
h. Personal service and first aid facilities
i. Fire protection and emergency response equipment
j. Walkways and roadways
k. Elevators, electric stairways and manlifts
l. Working surfaces
m. Materials handling equipment
n. Transport equipment

lOMoARcPSD|44597009
o. Warning and signaling devices

p. Containers
q. Storage facilities and area both indoor and outdoor
r. Structural openings
s. Building and structures
t. Miscellaneous
Conditions need to be inspected:
Unsafe conditions inspected should be described specifically and clearly. Usually,

conditions to look for can be indicated by such words as “jagged”, “exposed”, “broken”,
“frayed”, “leaking”, “rusted”, “corroded”, „missing”, “vibrating”, “loose”, or “slipping”.
Sometimes exact figures are needed, for example, the maximum pressure in a boiler or
the percent spread of a sling hook.
3. Schedule of Evaluation
Inspection can be classified as one of two types – continuous or interval

inspection, which should be discussed each using the key points such as the following:
a. Continuous Inspection
It involves noting an apparently or potentially hazardous conditions or unsafe

procedure that needs to be corrected it immediately or reported at once to initiate
corrective action. It is sometimes called informal inspection because it does not
conform to a set of schedule, plan, or checklist.
b. Interval Inspection
Planned inspections at specific intervals are what most people regard as “real”
safety and health inspections. They are deliberate ,and follow a systematic procedure
that permits examination of specific items or conditions. They interval inspections may
be periodic, intermittent, or general.
4. Conducting Inspection
In conducting an inspection, some of the general considerations are the following;

- Must not interrupt normal operations
- Review all accidents and previous inspection report made.
- Awareness of any potential hazards
- Wearing of Personal Protective Equipment
- Formulation of checklist
Reporting and Recording
Checklists serve as reminders of what to look for and as records of what have
been covered. They can be used to structure and guide inspection. They also allow on-
the-spot recording of all findings and comments before they are forgotten. In case an
inspection is interrupted, checklists provide a record of what has and what has not been
inspected. Otherwise, an inspection may miss items or conditions that should be
examined. Good checklists also help in follow-up work to make sure hazards have been
corrected or eliminated.

lOMoARcPSD|44597009
The format of a checklist should include columns to indicate either compliance or

date is taken action date. Space should also be provided to cite the specific violation, a
way to correct it, and a recommendation that the condition receives more or less
frequent attention. Whatever the format of the checklist, space should be provided for
the inspector‟s signature and the inspection date.
Inspection Report – Every inspection must be documented in a clearly written

inspection report furnished y the inspector. Without a complete and accurate report, the
inspection would be a little more than an interesting sightseeing tour. Inspection reports
are usually of three types:
1. Emergency – made without delay when a critical or catastrophic hazard is

probable.
2. Periodic – covers those unsatisfactory non-emergency conditions observed
during the planned periodic inspection. This report should be made within 24
hours of the inspection.
3. Summary – lists of all items of previous periodic reports for a given time.
Generally, inspection reports are sent to the head of the department or area
where the inspection was made. Copies are also given to executive management and
the manager to whom the department head reports.
5. Implementation
Upon implementation of the inspection report, make sure that recommendations

proposed by the inspector will be given priority depending on the hazards found in the
area.
In making recommendations, inspectors should be guided by four (4) rules:
1. Correct the cause whenever possible. If all the resources needed to correct
the cause are already available, improve the working condition.
2. Immediately correct everything possible. All possible causes of accident
should be corrected at once to prevent their recurrence. This will definitely be
done if all measures are in place.
3. Report conditions beyond one‟s authority and suggest solutions. Safety is
everybody‟s job. Anyone should be involved in the prevention of accident. If
you identify hazards in your place or work, report them at once to your
supervisor. Give recommendation to correct the situation.
4. Take intermediate action as needed. Time is an essence as far as safety is
concern. If unsafe condition was identified and corrective measure is at hand.
Improve it at once.
6. Monitoring
Monitoring is a management prerogative. Management must realize that employees

are keenly interested in the attention paid to correcting faulty conditions and hazardous
procedures. Recommendations approved and supported by management should become
part of the organization‟s philosophy and program. At regular intervals, supervisors
should report progress in complying with the recommendations to the safety department,
the company safety and health committee, or the person designated by management to
receive such information. Inspectors should periodically check to see what progress
toward corrective actions is being made. Unsafe conditions left uncorrected indicate a
breakdown in management communications and program applications.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
Sometimes management will have to decide among the several courses of action.
Often these decisions will be based on cost effectiveness. For example, it may be cost-
effective as well as practical to substitute a less toxic material that works as well to the
highly toxic substance presently in use. On the other hand, replacing a costly but
hazardous machine may have to wait until funds can be allocated. In this case, the
immediate alternative taken or proposed must be communicated to all persons involved.

Alphabet of Lines
Lines are the bases of all drawing. They are used even from simple drawings to the
difficult ones. Practice, exercise and correct use of techniques in the making of lines will give
student experience in technical sketching. Moreover, constant practice will help students develop
skills in making lines and use of pencils. It should be remembered that the basic requirement for
line construction is clarity of line produced.
In practice, the kind of line produced, depends on the hardness of the pencil. For drawing
using pencil, the medium and light lines are more prepared.
There are conventional lines used in drawing. These lines are called alphabet of line and
each line serves a particular purpose. These lines may either be drawn freehand or they may be
drawn mechanically.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
There are several different types of lines used on a print and each has different meaning.
To be able to interpret a print, the reader should have knowledge of these lines. These lines are
called alphabet of lines.

dimensioning the parts of the object.
__ _____ __ _____ __ ______ __
4. Extension Line. Fine lines that extend from the object with a slight break between and it
is used to show dimensioning points.
5. Dimension Line. Lines used to indicate the measurement of objects. It consists of

three parts: arrowheads, fine line, and number or measurement. The fine lines
have the same thickness or weight as the projection line. The arrowheads are
short heavy strokes (called flares) placed at the extremities of this fine line. The
shape of an arrowhead is like the point of an ordinary pen. The number or figure is
usually positioned at the middle of the fine line and its axis is perpendicular to it.
6. Leader Line. Fine, straight line with an arrowhead or round solid dot at one end and
usually drawn at an angle. Points directly to a surface for the purpose of dimensioning or
adding a note. A dot may be used at the end of the straight line where reference is made
to a surface area.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
Cutting Plane Line. A thick broken line made up of a series of one long and two short dashes
alternately spaced. The arrowheads are placed at right angles to the cutting plane line. The
purpose of this line is to indicate where an imaginary cut is made through the object. The arrow
points in the direction in which the section should be viewed. Letters next to the arrowheads
identify the section in cases where more than one section is shown on the drawing. These lines
are oriented vertically, horizontally, or at the actual angle at which the part is drawn.
7. Section Lines. Series of fine lines-solid or solid and broken-arranged in specific patterns.
They may be shown either straight or curved. When shown straight, they are usually
drawn at a 450 angle. It is used to indicate the imaginary cut surface referred to by the
cutting plane line. To represent various kinds of materials.

Welding Symbol
Location of Elements: The elements of a welding symbol have standard locations with respect
to each other.
Location Significance of Arrow: The arrow element in a welding symbol in conjunction with the
reference line determines the arrow side and other side of a weld.
The symbol depicting an arrow side weld is always placed below the reference line. The
arrow side is always closest to the reader when viewed from the bottom of the drawing. The weld
symbol depicting other side weld is placed above the reference line, away from the reader.
Welds on both sides of a joint are shown by placing weld symbols on both sides of the reference
line.
Some weld symbols have no arrow or other side significance. However, supplementary
symbols used in conjunction with these weld symbols may have such significance. For example,
welding symbols for resistance spot and seam welding have no side significance, but GTAW,
EBW, or other spot and seam welds may have arrow and other side.
References: When a specification, process, test, or other references are needed to clarify a
welding symbol, the reference is placed in a tail on the welding symbol. The letters complete joint
penetration (CJP) may be used in the tail of the arrow to indicate that a complete joint
penetration groove weld is required, regardless of the type of weld or joint preparation. The tail
may be omitted when no specification, process, or other reference is required with a welding
symbol.
Dimensions: Dimensions of a weld are shown on the same side of the reference line as the weld
symbol. The size of the weld is shown to the left of the weld symbol, and the length of the weld is
placed on the right. If a length is not given, the weld symbol applies to that portion of the joint
between abrupt changes in the direction of welding or between specified dimension lines. If a
weld symbol is shown on each side of the reference line, dimensions are required to be given for
each weld even though both welds are identical.
Either US Customary or SI units may be used when specifying dimensions. However,

only one of the two should be used for a product or project.
If a weld in a joint is to be intermittent, the length of the increments and the pitch (center-
to-center spacing) are placed to the right of the weld symbol.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
The term weld symbol and welding symbol have different meanings. A weld symbol
indicates the required type of weld. The welding symbol includes the weld symbol and
supplementary information. A complete welding symbol consists of the following elements:
 Reference line
 Arrow
 Basic weld symbol
 Dimensions and other data
 Supplementary symbol
 Finish symbol
 Tail
 Specification, process and other references
F – Finish Symbol
A – Groove Angle: included angle of countersink for plug welds
R – Root Opening; depth of filling for plug and slot welds.
S – Depth of Bevel: size or strength for certain welds
E – Groove Weld Size
L – Length of Weld
P – Pitch of Weld: center-to-center spacing
T – Tail of Weld: specification, process of other reference (omitted when reference is not
used
N – Number of Spot, Stud, or Projection Welds
- Field Weld
- Weld All Around
- Contour Symbol

lOMoARcPSD|44597009
In your welding work, you may be required to work from these drawings; therefore
you should understand the use and meaning of these symbols.
MEANING & USE OF SYMBOLS
An arc welding symbol consists of the main four parts
1. A reference line
2. An arrow.
3. A basic welding symbol
4. A tail
The basic symbol indicates the type of weld.
(Butt, fillet, etc.)
1. The reference line is a line connected to the arrow. The position of the basic symbol
above or beneath this line determines the location of the weld. The reference line is
always drawn parallel to the bottom edge of the drawing, or to the base line of a
particular view.
2. The arrow indicates the position of the weld; it is drawn at an angle from the end of
the reference line to one side of the joint. This side is called the „arrow side of the
joint‟. The opposite side is called the other side of the joint.
Arrow Location

lOMoARcPSD|44597009
Welds on the „arrow side of the joint‟ are shown by inverting the weld symbol and
placing it beneath the reference line.
Symbol Indicating Fillet Weld At Arrow Side of Joint
1. Welds on the „other side of the joint‟ are shown by

placing the symbols above the reference line.
Symbol indicating fillet welds on the other side of joint.
2. Welds on both sides of the joint are shown by

placing the weld symbol above and below the
reference line.
Fillet weld both sides of the joint
3. Basic weld symbols describe the type of weld to be made. This symbol is a
miniature drawing of the metal‟s edge preparation prior to welding. The basic weld
symbol is only part of the entire AWS welding symbol.

Supplementary Symbols
Supplementary symbols can be placed above or below the basic symbol, or at the
intersection of the reference line and the arrow. Dimensions and reference to specifications,
or welding procedures may also be added.
1. Weld all around is a circle drawn on the welding symbol, indicating that the described
weld is to be made all around the part.
2. Field weld symbol is a symbol added to the basic AWS welding symbol to indicate that a
weld is to be made at the job site (“ in the field”), rather than in a fabricating shop.
3. Melt through is a complete joint penetration for a joint welded from one side and visible
root reinforcement is produced.
\
4. Backing symbol is an open rectangular box used in combination with a groove weld
symbol located on the reference line indicating that locating materials is required on the
opposite side control penetration.


lOMoARcPSD|44597009
5. Spacer symbol is an open box that intersects the reference line, indicating that a spacer
is placed between joint.
Contour and Finish Symbol
1. Flush contour symbol is located on the same side as the symbol and indicates the weld
should be approximately a flat plane with the surface.
2. Convex contour symbol is located on the side as the symbol and indicates that the weld
should be raised or convex shape.
3. Concave contour symbol is located on the same side as the symbol indicates that the
weld should be concave shape.
4. If the contour requires finishing, a finishing symbol will be sued in conjunction with the
contour symbol, a letter G indicate grinding, C indicate shipping, M indicate machining,
and U indicate unspecified which local method should be used.
