Ramp-Over Protection for Work Site Cables

9/11/2015

0 Comments

 
Picture
Any planner figures in safety when job costing a project. Ramp-over protection guarantees that everyone from project manager to end user wins when costly delays and human injury become a thing of the past. First of all, makeshift ramps constructed of boards nailed together may be constructed swiftly, but they are subject to splitting under heavy drive overs. Any construction site using these unreliable methods risks damaging the electrical cables or pneumatic hoses underneath. Let's see how the best planners solve this problem by using Brahman Systems products.

Construction sites bustle with heavy equipment and workers committed to doing the best job possible. It takes little imagination to envision how a heavy equipment operator on a work deadline would miss a wooden ramp by misjudging his equipment's track width or by underestimating its weight. Likewise, a worker intent on completing a task may trip over exposed cables or hoses. Brahman Systems products guard equipment and workers by providing a sturdy, easy-to-install ramp bridging important cables, wiring, or hoses. 

Any project benefits from far-sighted planners, and not only on construction sites. Outdoor venues such as county fairs, home or boat shows, and any other entertainment or display gatherings contain crowds who are intent on looking, but not where they are walking. Indoor shows such as San Diego's Comic-Con also need to protect attendees and sellers from exposed extension cords on a flat convention floor that often changes attractions. Brahman Systems ramp-over protection is the way for effective planners to guarantee successful crowd and project control.

Heavy-Duty Cord Protection Becomes Industrial Necessity

9/4/2015

Among industrial project managers, horror stories abound of losses both in personnel and money from poorly-protected heavy-duty cords. The industry recognizes that electrical cords provide the backbone to on-site powered equipment, but sometimes lack of foresight makes for an unsafe working environment. The risk of injury, costly delays, or even fire is too great to even consider not using heavy-duty cord protection. Tripping, tangling, and extensive cord damage are only a few of the problems involved in using these vital parts of a project. Let's see how to safeguard them.

Stiff, thick, and unwieldy heavy-duty cords propel many industries from job beginnings to productive conclusion. In the construction of a home or office building, cords provide power to enable lighter-weight equipment usage that is opposed to a heavier bit of machinery that contains an engine. Lightweight equipment means faster and more mobile workers who complete their tasks with the least strain possible. Cord protection means that workers avoid injury and promote job satisfaction.

From the construction job site to an indoor entertainment venue takes a little imagination, but let's consider that electricity propels the most prevalent means of both industrial construction and providing entertainment or new product displays. For instance, a state-of-the-art 3D product display runs on electricity and may need to work in a convention floor filled with onlookers who are casually strolling about. The convention industry thrives on channeling enthusiastic crowds into safely controlled walkways, and by using Brahman Systems products, the savvy industrial planner ensures heavy-duty cord protection.

Adding Ramps Over Cables to Reduce Injuries

8/21/2015

Exposed cables are a common sight in various settings today. For instance, they're seen everywhere on construction sites. Safety regulations ensure that such cables are hung overhead, buried underground, or covered with a platform. Such regulations aren't necessarily in effect elsewhere, though. Unfortunately, an exposed cable poses a safety hazard in virtually all settings and situations. Businesses, event planners, and others can avoid these dangers by installing ramps over cables.

Avoidable Accidents and Injuries Are Common With Exposed Cables

Business owners and event organizers sometimes leave cables lying on the ground. Typically, they think doing so is a harmless action. A cable of any size lying around poses a tripping hazard for passersby. Cables with an electrical current pose an injury risk if they're severed on accident. Plus, someone found responsible for an accident due to negligence here can face civil lawsuits from injured individuals. Consequences like these and more are 100% avoidable. 

Where Ramps Come Into Play

A simple ramp protects the cable from damage and prevents accidents from occurring. Foot traffic and vehicles or machinery passes over the cable without any contact. In every case, potential accidents are avoided in a passive manner. Property owners place ramps and don't have to think twice about them moving forward. Ramps can be placed over any and all cables, regardless of length or diameter. Sure, a ramp might seem like a simple safety measure, but it's the most effective option available.

Choosing The Right Ramps For Cable Protection and Accident Avoidance

However, not all ramps are created equally as safety devices. When placing ramps over cables, only specially designed ramps should be used. Brahman Systems sells a variety of cable protectors that are cost-effective and require simple setup procedures. Each cable protector ramp can be top loaded with wires and cables. On top of that, the whole system is modular to fit every scenario. Users end up with complete protection of their cables with a ramp that won't break or fail anytime soon!

Speed Bump Over Cords & Hoses Saves Employees and Vehicles

8/14/2015

Construction sites are full of safety hazards without adding the potential for tripping over electrical cords or hoses. While construction is taking place, it is inconvenient to detour traffic, especially if the project is ongoing. The best solution is to us a speed bump over cords to protect them from vehicles passing over and pedestrians tripping over them. 

Other areas of concern are highway road crews. Cords and cables on the roadway are a potential for disaster. Using cable protectors eliminates the need for control traffic flow as the cable protectors automatically slow vehicles down. Cable protectors can be used in any commercial or industrial workplaces to protect power cords and prevent trip and fall incidents. 

On the underside of the cable protectors are grooves to fit over the cords, cables, or hoses. Many come with hardware to provide a clean, neat finished look as well as being able to join multiple protectors together. Others can double as a ramp if needed and are easily moved to a new location. 

Cord and cable protectors come in different weights and materials to accommodate the thickest cables. Heavy duty cable protectors are also a great way to ensure slower traffic through construction areas. Heavy trucks and industrial equipment can drive over the cable protectors without fear of damaging cables which in turn could cause damage to the vehicle if not covered. 

Using a speed bump over cords will reduce the potential for accidents resulting in injury and the possibility of lawsuits. Not only will construction keep moving along smoothly, but compliance with health and safety regulations governing potential accidents at the work site will not be an issue.

Working in the construction industry has a lot of great benefits, but also has its shortcomings. It can be one of the most rewarding jobs but then again, it can also be one of the most dangerous. Knowing that a project site went from completely empty to a completed structure can build a bond between the workers and sense of pride in the team. From remodeling a home, to redesigning an office, staying safe should be a number one priority. When working with large cables, wires, or hoses an extra level of safety should be implemented. To avoid breaking any equipment and strive for a safe environment check out Brahman Systems' cable protectors. 

Cable protectors work for you to improve safety, security and eliminate the cost of hanging or burying cables.

Construction industry companies all have one major thing in common, it isn’t not just orange reflective vests and yellow hard hats. There is one piece to the puzzle that is more important that just about any other aspect. While those two two articles of clothing do relate to the overarching theme of safety in the construction industry, protecting expensive assets is the key to maintaining happy clients and functioning equipment. Because most cities have multiple construction projects happening simultaneously, there is a lot of room for mistakes, injury or mishaps. Protecting both employees and equipment is essential for continued growth as a business.
Picture
Employees of construction companies often wear vests, hats or helmets, boots, gloves and more. These minor pieces of equipment help protect workers most important features, especially in high-danger situations with heavy equipment. One of the biggest problem in construction comes with protecting assets like equipment, materials and employees. Huge trucks and other heavy mechanical devices are often moving around a site, putting tons of weight on different areas. Protecting these areas is important for both the contractor and the land owner. Often companies will slack when it comes to protecting some of their largest assets. Wires connect power and more from one large device to another, and if not properly protected can short, break or get damaged, especially from heavy equipment driving over it. Restore your site to the proper construction cable safety standards with cable protectors. They are easy to use metal devices that lock in wires and hoses to they do not get caught on trucks, in machines, or get tangled.

Rather than using nailed together wooden boards or other makeshift devices, construction companies and contractors should use Brahman Systems heavy duty cable protectors for the ultimate protection in construction cable safety. The drive ramps are tested to hold up to 65 tons, having been designed to withstand weight from industrial traffic. Stay safe in the construction industry with Brahman System’s patented cable protectors.

One constantly revolving issue around worksite productivity is safety.  Without safety a company can be shut down by the city, a lawsuit, or halt work to deal with an incident. With the mix of early morning and late night work, heavy equipment, toxic chemicals, heights, and dangerous situations, a construction site is not necessarily the safest place to work. Handling the safety issues before they become incidents is essential to being a great and effective manager in this industry. Instead of being a problem fixer, you are a problem preventer, which can save companies tons of money, time and equipment in the long run.

Over the years, new safety techniques have arisen that simplify and ease the stresses in the industrial sphere. Particularly in industries where there is a lot of space and a lot going on at one time, worksite managers should be aware of the consequences of not using safety equipment to protect the company’s image. Even one fallen 2 x 4 can ruin productivity for a company for hours, and bring pending lawsuits that can cost thousands. Imagine a heavier piece of equipment like a crane or forklift? Imagine that! A $10 piece of wood falling and hitting a worker or a civilian can cost a company an extraordinary amount of money and time. However, simply by exploring options when it comes to workplace safety, that accident could have been prevented.
Picture
One major component of any industrial includes cables and wires. These wires can be snagged by cars or trucks, slipped on by workers or even caught in machines. To avoid any workplace accidents with cables, consider investing in the top of the line factory cable protectors. These patented devices protect cables from exposure to potential dangers, and are very simple to install and transport. They can keep your cables, wires and hoses in order, protected and keep your equipment running for longer. Make the investment in a quality factory cable protector and you won’t have to pay in the future.

Large Office Remodeling? Use Commercial Cable Protectors for Safety

Renovating a office is a large task, which takes time, money and safety to ensure a proper development and protection of your land. With the wrong techniques, part of your home could be damaged or worse, ruined. When deciding to renovate, be wise and do you research before you commit to any company or design. This is the best way to protect your investment and save you from serious headaches and hiccups in the future. Protecting your current land, materials on the land, and already built structures are vital to saving both time and money, not to mention all the safety hazards to be avoided.

When hiring a contractor there are many factors to consider, but one of the more overlooked factors is how they protect your current land and property while they are working. From putting up cones over soft spots in the land, to construction tape to mark off temporary roads, there is a lot to do to protect your property and those working and living on it. One of the most recommended protection methods involves commercial cable protectors. Cable protectors group and protect cables that are usually run underground or even overhead during temporary construction processes. If cable protectors are laid out in strategic spots, they will prevent wires from pulling out, protect soft areas of land, and will aid with the speed of development, which we all know tends to increase even after an initial estimate.

When researching contractors for your project, be sure to ask them what kind of protection methods they use. Ask about the equipment they’ll be using, what will be done with cables, wires, and hoses. If they will be used, what kind of protectors will they employ? Often construction companies will say they use commercial cable protectors, but often end up nailing a few boards of wood together or using ones with sub-par materials like plastic, rubber or aluminum. Spending a lot with contractors is common, so save some dollars by finding the contractor that not only fits your budget, but protects you with safety equipment against future potential damages. Remind them to use the safest and most cost effective equipment offered like Brahman Systems. Our commercial cable protectors are made completely from steel and our design is so innovative and strong, it has been patented. Brahman Systems is the new standard in cable and hose protection.
