'Avoiding hand-arm vibration when fixing to concrete' - new CPD seminar from Halfen
Vibration White Finger is the most common form of Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome caused by prolonged and frequent use of hand-held vibrating tools European legislation which came into force in July this year sets safety limits for the use of such tools whilst existing CDM regulations place a duty of care on designers to minimise risk to operatives during construction
Halfen's new CPD seminar - Avoiding Hand-Arm Vibration When Fixing To Concrete - is aimed at providing specifiers with an understanding of the causes of VWF, the method of calculation of risk and the application of safety limits to the use of vibrating tools.
Cast-in channels avoid the need to drill into concrete to make fixings, and the seminar concludes with typical uses which include the securing of structural, facade and service elements. Request a free brochure from Halfen ...
