1 Workplace Airborne Hazards and Air Sampling - Construction Industry and Air Sampling - Construction Industry Midland Construction Safety Association 8 th August 2017 Jeremy Evans - Sales Development Manager
2 Topics Construction - Importance of Airborne Health Hazards Why Measure Them? Ways to Measure - Dust - Vapours Air Sampling Options
3 Size of the Problem? Derby County FC Pride Park Stadium 1 mg/m 3 one teaspoon of flour spread over a rugby/football field, to a height of one metre 1 ppm contents of a party balloon in the volume of 50 three bedroom houses
4 Airborne Hazards Injuries (SAFETY) - Fatal Injuries Total: 137 PER ANNUM - 12 per month - Fatal Injuries Construction: 30 PER ANNUM - 3 per month Occupational Lung Disease & Cancer (HEALTH) - Deaths Total: 12,000-13, per month (34 PER DAY) SAFETY - Construction Industry alone: 40% of all Reported Occupational Cancers OR SAFETY
5 Airborne Hazards (Health) Cancers Lung Cancer Mesothelioma Leukaemia Nasal Cancer etc Diseases COPD Occupational Asthma Chronic Bronchitis Emphysema Asbestosis Silicosis etc. Benzene Butadiene Chrome VI Nickel Cadmium Wood Dust Rubber Dust/Fume Asbestos Respirable Crystalline Silica Dust Wood, Flour, Gypsum etc. VOCs Solvents Welding Fume Particulates Formaldehyde Isocyanates
6 Other Industries (Health) Welding, Soldering, Metal Work 1 in 10 of 30,000 reported breathing/lung problems caused/made worse by work Bakers 80 times more likely to develop occupational asthma Long Latency Period Welding Fumes - 18 Years to develop Asthma
7 Scaffold fall Ceiling collapse injures worker Fall from roof Severe electrical burns Crush death Hit by steel girder H&S Headlines Health Hazards - Headlines? Asbestos Others
8 Construction Airborne Hazards DUST - Asbestos - Respirable Crystalline Silica - Wood Dust - General Dust e.g. Gypsum - Metals CONTROLS - Dust Suppression - Containment - RPE STAFF EXPOSURE MEASUREMENT Despite: - HSE Workplace Exposure Limits - Defined, simple sampling methods - Many benefits WHY MEASURE EXPOSURE?
9 Questions How can I be sure my staff are not overexposed to Airborne Hazards? What Evidence/Records do I have of their actual exposure? How do I decide the Need for & Level of Controls required? How can I measure their Effectiveness? EXPOSURE MEASUREMENT - BENEFITS Records - Evidence Informed Decisions based on Facts - not Assumptions Potential Cost Savings Protection of Staff and Company
10 Reasons for Workplace Air Sampling Health Protection Compliance with Government Legislation COSHH: Control of Substances Hazardous to Health EH40: HSE Workplace Exposure Limits CLAW: Control of Lead at Work Regulations CAR: Control of Asbestos Regulations Protection from Compensation Claims Process Control Measures
11 EH40:2005 Exposure Limits in the Workplace WEL (Workplace Exposure Limit) 8 Hour (Time Weighted Average) 15 Minute (Short Term Exposure Limit) Vapours Includes Dust Wood Dust (hard & soft wood) Respirable Crystalline Silica Metals VOCs / Solvents (various)
12 What is Air Sampling? Air is passed through a filter, tube or other collecting media Hazard Presence/Level detected by Direct Reading or (Dust) Colour Change of Media (Vapours) or Laboratory Analysis (Dust, Silica, Metals, Vapours)
13 Dust and Vapours Diffusion Semi-quantitative Indicator e.g. surveys Immediate results (Dust Monitors, Gastec/Dräger Tubes) Passive Sampling Grab Sampling Vapours only Small sample volume Semi-quantitative Not time-based exposure Indicator e.g. surveys Immediate results (Gastec/Dräger Tubes)
14 Active Sampling Dust and Vapours Sampling Pump + Sampling Head Quantitative - Known Flow Rate + Time Most Accurate / Meaningful Immediate Results Dust Monitors Samples to Laboratory HSE Methods
15 Sampling Train Pump Connecting tube Sampler Sampler Connecting Tube Pump Active Sampling Calibrator Setup Sampling Train Calibrate Flow Rate - Before Sampling Fit Sample Train to Operator Check Flow Rate - After Sampling Send Sample to Laboratory Review Results Actual Exposure vs 8 hr WEL 15 min STEL
16 Personal vs Static Sampling Workplace Exposure Limits (WELS) based on PERSONAL SAMPLES MUST be taken in the BREATHING ZONE
17 Particulates (Construction) Dust - Respirable Crystalline Silica Dust - General e.g Gypsum Fibres - Asbestos Wood Dust Fumes - Welding (metals/metal oxides) Metals - Grinding, Blasting, etc. Diesel Particulates - Engines
18 Relative Size of Particles RESPIRABLE Respirable dust to 12 micron Inhalable dust to 100 micron INHALABLE microns
19 Size Distribution BS EN 481:1993 Up to 100 micron AED Affects ALL the respiratory system Partially visible Workplace Exposure Limit (WEL) - Dust 10 mg/m 3 8 Hour TWA - Hard Wood & Soft Wood Dust 5 mg/m 3 8 Hour TWA Inhalable Dust
20 Respirable Dust Size Distribution BS EN 481:1993 Up to 12 micron AED Penetrates Deep into the Lungs Invisible Workplace Exposure Limit (WEL) - Dust 4 mg/m 3 8 Hour TWA - Respirable Crystalline Silica 0.1 mg/m 3 8 Hour TWA
21 HSE Methods Methods Active Sampling MDHS - Method for the Determination of Hazardous Substances - MDHS 14/4 - Inhalable & Respirable Dust - MDHS 101/2 - Respirable Crystalline Silica Survey Methods Direct Reading - Particulate Monitors - Inhalable / Respirable Dust - Passive / Active - Personal or Static
22 Survey Methods Particulates Direct reading - time-based picture of the situation Area Mapping Hotspots When Who Cleaning Construction Processes TIMES!
23 Air Sampling Particulates Sampling Heads (containing a Filter) IOM Inhalable Dust Metals Cyclone Respirable Dust Silica Cowled Fibres Asbestos Mini Sampler Welding Fume Components (Metals)
24 Vapours (Construction) Organic Chemicals - VOCs (Solvents), etc. In Commercial Products Cleaning, Glues, MDF, Paints, Paint Strippers, insulation, etc. e.g. Formaldehyde (MDF) Dichoromethane (paint strippers) Xylene, 1-Butanol, etc. (paints/glues, etc) Isocyanates - Two pack Polyurethane Paints - Coatings, Foams, Flooring
25 Vapours Exposure Limits (WELs) Parts per Million (ppm) Wide Range Vapours Limits Examples 8 Hour TWA 15 Minute STEL Formaldehyde 2 ppm 2 ppm Xylene 50 ppm 100 ppm Dichloromethane 100 ppm 300 ppm
26 Passive/Grab Sampling - Vapours Passive Sampling Badges Colour Change Tubes
27 Active Sampling - Vapours Sorbent Tube with Holder & Cover Cassette & Holder (containing treated filter)
28 HSE Methods - Vapours MDHS - Method for the Determination of Hazardous Substances Generic (VOCs) MDHS 88 - Passive Sampling MDHS Active Sampling
29 Workplace Air Sampling - Options Consultant DIY Both DIY Benefits Cost Savings Flexibility Involvement / Ownership Additional Skills / Experience
30 Measurement Requirements Equipment, Accessories Guidance/Support - Equipment Supplier - Laboratory - HSE, etc. Competence (Training)
