Worker's death costs firm £230,000

On every C&D Hot Works/Oxy-propane course we discuss the implications of structural stability when burning on steel structures and the need to "chock" and support tanks and vessels when burning them on the ground. That's because our experience over the years has shown those areas to be of high risk.

The need to consider structural support for tanks has been brought home to us by this recent article in SHP where a burner was unfortunately killed during the demolition of a barge on dry land. We are sure that you would not want this awful tragedy repeated on one of your contracts, so why not book a hot works course now and get clear instruction on what to consider when carrying out demolition burning.
