Structural Steel Welding

The Structural Steel Welding Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) outlines the main hazards and risks associated with the fabrication of structural steel elements for the construction of steel buildings or structures including risk of falls, hazardous manual tasks, electrical hazards, atmospheric hazards, risk of falling objects, noise, use of power tools, operation of mobile plant and vehicles, and exposure to radiation (including UV radiation from welding processes). The SWMS provides details of the health and safety precautions (including protective clothing and PPE) required when welding structural steel.
