5. PUBLIC SAFETY
5.1. OBJECTIVE
To establish and maintain safety controls to protect the public during the execution of any project
5.2. PROCEDURES
During construction of any project the following measures will be taken to protect the public from
construction hazards the contractor and subcontractors will be required to monitor their work for
compliance.
5.2.1 When all or portion of a roadway is blocked to traffic, excavated material will be piled or fence
barricades will be erected to direct traffic away from construction hazards. Diemensions may be
varied but the overall height of excavated material or barricade will be at least 120cm. When
total closure is intended the barricade will extend to the curb or ditch on both sides.
5.2.2 Flagman will be used whenever traffic passing through the work area may be required to stop
because of conflicts with construction equipment or because the safe travel path cannot
accommodate two-way traffic. A flagman will not be used to guard more than one conflict
Page 19 of 88
AL-HAZEM CONTRACTING Health, Safety, Environmental & Fire Prevention Manual
point. Where one-way traffic is required for a distance of over 30 meters a flagman will be
assigned-to end. Traffic signs may also be required to alert traffic of the upcoming hazard.
5.2.3 Excavation work adjacent to thoroughfares or congested areas will be adequately barricaded
using piled. Excavated material or barricade tape to provide pedestrian and child on-looker
restraints. During hours of darkness any open excavations will have a security person posted to
enforce public compliance with barricade devices.
5.2.4 Special requirements apply for construction activities in or near the highway.
5.2.5 Construction of pipeline and house connection in narrow streets may require temporary
removal of excavated materials to maintain access for emergency vehicles and pedestrians
many buildings can only be reached with one road.
5.2.6 The house connections program requires that safe access be provided to buildings for the
general public and particularly for children and the elderly.
5.2.7 During loading, unloading and rigging activities, personal will be posted as watchmen to protect
the public from swinging loads similar hazards.

hazard to the public will be covered, elevated or other wise protected from damage. Distribution
panels will have covers on them at all items.
5.2.9 All aspects of the project safety plan are intended to provide public safety as well as worker
safety.

6.1. EXCAVATIONS
6.1.1. A trench is referred to as a narrow excavation in which the depth the depth is greater than the
width , although the width is not greater than 5 meters an excavation is any man-mad cavity or
depression in the earths surface this can include excavations for any thing from cellars to
highways. AL-HAZEM and all subcontractors shall comply with standards of Egyptian labor
6-1-2 The project requires that all excavations over 1.5 meters deep be sloped, shored, benched,
braced, or otherwise supported. When soil conditions are unstable, excavations shallower
than 1.5 meters also shall be sloped, supported or shored.
6-1-3 One method of ensuring the safety of workers in a trench or excavation is to slope the sides
to a safe angle varies with different kinds of soil and shall be determined on each individual
project. When an excavation has water conditions, silty material, or loose boulders, or when it
is being dug in areas where e erosion or slide planes are apparent, the safe angle shall be
flattened.

6-1-5 A trench box, prefabricated, movable trench shield composed of steel plates welded to a
heavy steel frame may also be used.
6-1-6 Designing adequate protection.
a) Some of the considerations to be taken into account in design of protection are:
I- Soil classification.
II- Depth of cut.
III- Water content of soil
IV- Changes due to weather and climate.
V- Superimposed loads.
VI- Vibrations
VII- Other operations in vicinity.
