Welding Works

Welding works
implemented by our welding specialists can
are engaged in gas welding along with
cutting and brazing operations. It is a must
for a welding specialist to wear goggles or
face mask before starting the welding
process to protect themselves from injury.
As for electric welding cutting operations,
workers are instructed to wear helmets or
shields fitted with filters and gloves.
The welding machines used in process are tested by
checking the insulation to ensure their
safety condition before using them. We make
sure that welding machines are installed
30 cm or more away from the switch box.
Welding and Cutting
a) All welding and cutting apparatus shall
be inspected duly. Defective apparatus and
equipment shall be repaired.
b) Combustible materials equipment’s such as
gas cylinder, rubber hose and debris shall
be removed or shielded from heat, sparks and
from welding and cutting.
c) Welding or cutting work at elevated place
shall be conducted only in safe conditions.
A SAFETY belt shall be worn.
d) Welding or cutting in an area where
inflammable vapour may be present shall be
carried out carefully after, under the
supervision of SAFETY ENGINEER, confirming
wire a gas detector that the area is safe.
Welding Work
a) Welding machines shall be placed 15 cm
above the ground to keep them dry.
b) Welding machines shall be placed level
and secured with a suitable wedge to keep
them in a horizontal position.
c) All electric welding machines shall be
effectively grounded. The ground load for
the welding machines shall be mechanically
strong and electrically adequate for the
service required.
d) Approved connectors shall be used to
connect the welding cable with the welding
machine and electric holder.
e) Only electrode holders that have passed
the inspection shall be used.
f) Whenever welding work is suspended, the
switch shall be turned off and the welding
rod be disconnected from the holder by the
welder before he leaves the construction
area.
