ATDC’s recent installation of 100 lineal metres of portable crowd control barriers for Westpoint Growers presented unique challenges that required careful planning and execution to ensure safety and success.

 

Hazard Assessment and Precautionary Measures

Upon receiving instructions from management at the QIC-owned Westpoint Blacktown, ATDC took proactive steps to address potential hazards associated with the installation process.

One such hazard involved the presence of reinforcing steel (Reo) or conduit beneath the concrete floor surface, posing a risk during drilling activities required for stabilising and securing the barrier installation with shootbolt locks.

 

Comprehensive Hazard Mitigation Strategy

To mitigate these risks, ATDC collaborated with an external contractor to conduct a thorough scan below the concrete floor surface. This scan aimed to identify and mark out positive locations where drilling could be safely performed without encountering hazardous obstructions.

This meticulous planning ensured that ATDC’s installers could navigate the floor drilling process with precision, avoiding potential hazards and safeguarding the integrity of the installation.
