Federal Aviation Administration

Memorandum Date: JUN 14 2013

To:

From:

Subject: ACTION: Safety Requirements for Welding, Cutting, or Brazing Activities

Facility managers must ensure that personnel follow the procedures outlined in the safety requirements for welding, cutting, and brazing activities. Therefore, I am directing all System Support Center Managers (SSCMs) to review and comply with the attached documents. This includes completing a Hot Work Permit before engaging in any welding, cutting, and brazing activities.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specific regulations when conducting these welding, cutting, and brazing activities to prevent fires and other hazards such as eye damage from radiant light. The regulations for this program area are found in Title 29 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 1910, Subpart Q, Welding, Cutting. and Brazing and 29 CFR 1926, Subpart J, Welding and Cutting.

Failure to comply with the procedures outlined in these safety requirements could result in fire or explosion at the facility or personal injuries resulting from arc radiation or electrical shock. In addition, the byproducts of the welding, cutting, and brazing processes include fumes and gases that can pose serious health hazards to employees.

Attached to this memorandum are the OSHA requirements for FAA personnel who perform or supervise any welding, cutting, or brazing activities (Attachment 1). For additional information, please contact Ruben Jackson, ATSS, EOSH/Facility Security Team, P&R, ESC, 404-389-8127.

Attachment 1

Safety Requirements for Welding, Cutting, or Brazing Activities

Background:

Welding processes require heat and other substances to produce the weld; therefore, the potential for fire or explosion and injuries resulting from arc radiation, electrical shock, or materials handling is increased. Byproducts of the welding, cutting, and brazing processes include fumes and gases that can pose serious health hazards to employees. These activities exclude soldering. Minimizing the hazards associated with welding, cutting, and brazing is necessary to provide a safe work environment. Achievement of this goal begins with the implementation of the requirements in this guidance document.

Fire Prevention Requirements:

In order to prevent fires during welding, cutting, and brazing activities perform the following precautionary procedures:

• Before welding, cutting, or brazing work is permitted, the area must be made fire safe and the individual(s) responsible for the operation must inspect the work area.

• All movable combustible and/or flammable materials must be transported at least 35 feet from all welding or burning activities.

• If the object to be welded or cut cannot be moved to a designated welding area, and if all fire hazards cannot be removed, then barriers or frre blankets must be used to isolate the combustible materials from the heat, sparks, and slag.

o All fire blankets shall be free of holes, rips and tears, and cover the entire combustible material within the proposed welding work area.

• All cracks and openings must be sealed or a fire resistant shield must be used to block the openings.

• Operational fire extinguishing equipment must be maintained in a state of readiness for instant use within 20 feet.

• A fire watch with an approved portable fire extinguisher (other than the one that is currently provided for the facility) must be established to ensure the safety of the workers and the protection of assets.

o The work area shall be observed for no less than 30 minutes (60 minutes for roof work) after the completion of the work and must be specified on the hot work permit.

o All building materials shall be to touch with the back of an unprotected hand without burning.

• Fire detection equipment in vicinity of welding, cutting, and brazing operation shall be protected from false activation and damage. Fire suppression systems shall be protected by noncombustible shielding or guarding to prevent inadvertent activation.

• Use an anti-flashback device on acetylene and oxygen tanks. Ensure all compressed gas cylinders are in good working condition and are properly stored and used in accordance with OSHA standard 1910.101, Compressed Gases.

Safe Work Practices:

A safe work environment is not enough to control all hazards associated with welding, cutting, and brazing. The following safe work practices shall be followed to prevent fire or injury:

• If conducting welding, cutting, or brazing activities, perform a risk evaluation and address any other potential hazards. Some examples of potential ancillary hazards include, but are not limited to, welding, cutting, and brazing:

o Lead based paint on substrates or on galvanized metals (zinc fumes), o Work area impacting an egress path (e.g. stairwells); or o Impacts on local or area ventilation o Production of hazardous fumes, gases, or dust from metal substrate, welding/brazing rod, or flux components; or o Use of combustible or flammable containers.

• All persons involved in welding, cutting, and brazing operations shall:

o Use safe work practices and engineering controls to protect persons in adjacent areas and FAA property; and o Wear the appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) as listed in the PPE Hazard Assessment contained in Attachment 2.

• The location of hot work shall be determined using the following priority list:

o The work should be performed in an area designed for hot work use such as welding shops.

o If work must be performed on site, combustibles should not be located within 35 feet of the work area.

o If work must be performed on site and combustibles cannot be removed from within 35 feet of the work area, fire barriers such as screens or blankets must be used to protect combustibles.

• Only authorized and trained personnel are permitted to use welding, cutting, or brazing equipment.

• Welding screens must be provided in areas where pedestrian traffic may be exposed to flashes or sparks.

• In the area where the welding, cutting, and brazing activities are occurring, ensure adequate ventilation is available.

• Welding, cutting, brazing, or grinding on vessels, tanks, drums, or other containers that contain or have contained flammable materials is prohibited, unless approved by the facility manager.

• Use of chlorinated hydrocarbons (e.g. solvents, degreasers, etc.) for cleaning substrates prior to welding is prohibited due to the toxic gases that may form.

• Do not observe welding, cutting, and brazing activities without the proper PPE.

• Routine grinding is not considered hot work; however, any grinding on piping, containers, or other vessels that contain or have contained flammable materials is considered hot work and a hot work permit is required.

Hot Work Permit Requirements:

Hot work includes, but is not limited to; electrical/gas welding, torch cutting, brazing, any activity that produces open flames, and grinding on containers/vessels that contain or have contained flammable materials. A Hot Work Permit (Attachment 3) is required for any operation involving open flames or producing heat and/or sparks or when welding, cutting, or brazing activities are performed in a confined space.

The facility manager must approve all hot work permits. Contractors performing hot work must complete the FAA Hot Work Permit or their own equivalent permit and this permit must be approved by the project Resident Engineer (RE). The RE must coordinate all project-related hot work with the facility manager. If the required precautions cannot be met, hot work is prohibited.

• Before any welding, cutting, or brazing work begins, a hot work permit must be completed and approved.

• Address all hazards and precautions noted on the permit before operations begin.

• Prominently post the permit in the area where the hot work is performed.

• Upon completion of hot work operations, maintain the permit in the project file or as needed.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Requirements:

When welding, cutting, and brazing hazards cannot be eliminated, engineering controls, administrative procedures, safe work practices, PPE, and proper training for welding will be implemented. These measures shall be implemented to minimize those hazards to ensure the safety of employees and the facility.

Employee protection during welding operations shall include all requirements as shown in the attached PPE Hazard Assessment for welding, cutting, and brazing activities.

• The Manager shall provide employees with the appropriate PPE as needed and shall ensure equipment is used properly.

Safety Training (not operational training):

Employees who perform welding, cutting, and brazing operations and/or Fire Watch responsibilities in FAA facilities must be trained to:

• Recognize the hazards associated with various welding operations,

• Know the safe work practices for welding, cutting, and brazing operations;

• Understand the importance and requirements of hot work permits and fire prevention,

• Use the appropriate PPE for the job; and

• Understand the importance of regular inspections of welding equipment, attachments, and accessories.
