Safety Topic Of The Day- Operating Fuel-Powered Temporary Heaters

Photo Credit: Construction Tales Safety Topic 15-Part B Hello Everyone! As I stated in the previous blog, I have been very busy lately and I have not been sharing new data on this blog. I'm sorry for a huge delay due to my personal and work loads. I have some extra time recently so I'm able to come in and share with you some new blog content. How are you doing on this Monday evening that kicks off the work week?? As I had previously shared before like a broken record, I found out that Anchor.fm is no longer electronically converting this written blog to an audio MP3 form automatically. Moving forward, I am actively sharing my Construction Tales Safety Topic YouTube videos on my main Spotify channel. Therefore, my brand-new Verbally Disastrous podcast episodes are my YouTube safety topics. Before I share my latest "Construction Tales Safety Topic" content, allow me to share some updates on my other projects. My established "$ugar Momma Baddie" themed clothing and accessory collection is available on both Spring and Shopify ecommerce platforms. Check out the two designs that you can choose from: 1) Feisty Lady Trio 2) Sugar Momma Bed. The "$ugar Momma Baddie" Shopify and Spring store links are down below in this Quora blog post. The links for the paperback, e-book, and now audio version for my first children's book that's entitled, "Not All Girls Play With Dolls" are also down below in this blog post. Both my first children's book and my #ConstructionTales book are available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, iTunes, and Audible. The audio versions of both of my books can be found in four Audible markets that include: France, Dutch, U.K., and the United States. Now that I've wrapped up my "Leslie's book and podcast ad", let's check out the written version of the latest Construction Tales Safety Topic that is known as video #15, Part B on my MP3 and MP4 formats: In my previous video, I covered the meaning of hot work and introduced you to some basic safety tips while both preparing and performing hot work. Even people who are working in close proximity to hot work should be aware of the safety protocols. In this video, I want to do an overview with you on the rules of using portable fueled heaters on construction jobsites. I am referencing Chapter 14 Fire Protection Systems that comes from the 2014 New York City Fire Code. To start out, let us review the entire overall scope of work that is defined within the NYC fire code for Chapter #14: “This chapter shall govern the design, installation, operation and maintenance, including inspection and testing, of fire protection devices, equipment and systems, and other fire protection measures for the control and extinguishment of fire.” For this video, let us dive into some basic safety tips for using portable fuel-powered heaters while in construction. These heaters are covered under the FC 1403 section within Chapter #14 of the 2014 New York City Fire Code. There are strict rules as to the storage and handling of portable fueled heating devices on the jobsite. Portable fueled space heaters must be labeled, listed, and designed as per construction codes. In addition to NYC Fire Code, the laws that govern also include Mechanical Code and Fuel Gas Code. As applicable, the current fire commissioner also has the authority to implement additional rules that supersede the current fire code. People who handle these portable fuel-powered heaters must possess a Certificate of Fitness. Portable oil-fueled heaters can be stored, handled, and used on construction sites for curing and drying purposes. These oil-fueled heaters can be used during the heating season that runs from October 15th to May 30th at the end of the season. Portable gas-fueled heaters can either utilize liquified petroleum gas or compressed natural gas. These gas-fueled heaters are also allowed for curing process and during the same time frame as oil-fueled heaters. Refueling these heaters shall be allowed as per FC 3405 only after being shut off and allowed to cool down. Smoking is prohibited on construction sites here in New York City. Despite this fact, signage must be posted. Signage that’s regulated, as per FC 310, in the following areas: 1) on the swinging door of a fence or any kind of gate openings to a jobsite 2) at entrances to any building or structure that is under construction or demolition 3) on each floor at a stairway, elevator, and hoist way access point 4) at any outdoor or indoor areas on a construction site where people congregate together. Except for coke-fueled salamanders, it is unlawful to ignite or maintain an open fire. When using portable fueled heaters, proper housekeeping and ventilation is a requirement. The storage of flammable liquids for portable fueled heaters must comply with FC 3406.2. Class I and II liquids shall be locked up in approved safety containers. Prior to putting the portable heater into service, it is important to secure the heater. The objective of securing the portable heater is so that it does not accidentally become overturned and damaged in the process of being in service. The heating element must also be covered in order to protect workers from accidentally touching or material making contact and catching on fire. The use of a portable fueled-heater must be under supervision while it is in service. As stated previously, the person in charge of watching the heater while in service must be qualified to safeguard and check for hazards, via a Certificate of Fitness. Well, my friend, this wraps up what I have for now on offering you to safety tips that pertain to portable fuel-powered heaters that are used on the average construction project. Accidents can happen on typical construction jobsites here in New York City. The objective is to learn some important safety tips and try to avoid any mishaps in the future. Stay tuned for future videos where I offer even more different types of safety tips. Here is the MP4 visual version of this safety topic on my Verbally Disastrous YouTube Channel: https://youtu.be/nPu3criFzck Well, my friend, this wraps up what I have for now on sharing with you this introduction to fuel-powered temporary heaters. In my previous videos, I had shared with you an introduction to hot work that happens on construction sites. The objective is to share information to help either educate you or help you to become even more knowledgeable at work in New York City or in construction in general. Stay tuned for the next video where I offer information of handling flammable gases, including oxygen tanks, while on a construction jobsite. I have released this YouTube and podcast video. Therefore, this will be your next written blog topic. In the future, I also want to do question and answers for safety study material since that is a niche that is not plentiful on YouTube. Now that I have wrapped up this latest blog topic, I'm now sharing the links to the podcast platforms and YouTube channel: The Verbally Disastrous Podcast & Construction Tales Safety Topic audio content links on Spotify, Spotify For Podcasters, and even MP4 YouTube links: The Verbally Disastrous Podcast On Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/52xBe1cGlvu3YCCicEOfCj The Verbally Disastrous Podcast On Spotify For Podcasters: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/vd-leslie-m-jasper The Verbally Disastrous Podcast On Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/verbally-disastrous-podcast-leslie-m-jasper-melissa/id1560907872 The Verbally Disastrous Podcast on Google Podcasts: https://www.google.com/podcasts?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy81NGI3NjY5Yy9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw== The Verbally Disastrous Podcast on Radio Public: https://radiopublic.com/the-verbally-disastrous-podcast-w-Wd9eeX The Verbally Disastrous Podcast on Pocket Casts: https://pca.st/ememoels The Verbally Disastrous YouTube Channel On YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCE8tVs9kmwoS9turm4zzv-g I would greatly appreciate it you helped me out by subscribing to my Verbally Disastrous YouTube channel.

This is short story #11 entitled, "Juggling Motherhood & Working With The Tools". This short story covers my life as a widowed, single mother in the era when I juggled both motherhood and my career as a journeywoman electrician. I share the various challenges I faced and lessons learned along the way. The previous short story is entitled: #10: "Early Life Lessons & Characters To Meet As An Apprentice". I decided to write about some life lessons such as guarding your personal information, managing nasty rumors, combating sexual harassment, gender discrimination, and racism. Overall, the construction culture has improved dramatically over the past 25-years. Developing both a thick skin and a sharp tongue are key tools needed to survive various jobsite antics. I hope you learn something from this short story. There are more to come. These short stories are now also available as Verbally Disastrous podcast episodes.
