3 © 2008 Aker Solutions part of Aker Aker Construction, Inc.Slide 3 Trailer Loading/Unloading Procedures ■ Complete Trailer Loading/Unloading Checklist & Inspect Load ●First Level of Control – Stay off Load ■ Methods of loading/unloading-forklift, lifting frame, flat rack, aerial lift and “hog” the load. ■ A general standard truck loading for site suppliers shall be developed and included in all contract documents. ● 7 inch clearance under all loads shall be established by supplier. ●Second Level of Control – Establish Walkways on the Trailer ■ Engineered Walkways 14 inches wide ■ Clearances on trailer (a minimum of 12 inches shall be maintained) ●Third Level of Control – Fall Arrest System ■ Fixed or Portable System ■ Conduct Foreman Risk Assessment – Once the checklist is completed and control measures determined the risk assessment can be completed. The assessment shall include: ●All parties involved in the task ●Review of the Trailer Loading/Unloading Checklist

4 © 2008 Aker Solutions part of Aker Aker Construction, Inc.Slide 4 Control Option #1: Lifting Beam Lifting Beam is adjustable in both length and width. There are 8 different lifting points top and bottom. Hook and Unhook from ground. Evenly distribute lifting bars under the load to be hoisted. Center the load over the trailer.

5 © 2008 Aker Solutions part of Aker Aker Construction, Inc.Slide 5 Control Option #1: Lifting Beam – General Info ■ All rigging shall be conducted under the direction of a qualified person. ■ Inspect rigging before each use ●Remove any defective equipment from service ●Ensure components are being used within rated capacity ■ Do not exceed the 25 ton capacity of the lifting beam ■ Use softeners when rigging breaks over any sharp corner ■ Use one or more tag lines to control the load ■ Evenly distribute the yellow lifting bars under the material to be loaded/unloaded from the trailer ■ Adjust the length and width of the lifting beam to accommodate the size of the load to be put onto or removed from the trailer.

6 © 2008 Aker Solutions part of Aker Aker Construction, Inc.Slide 6 Control Option #1: Flat Rack Center the flat rack when on the trailer. Flat Rack and matched lifting beam. 25 ton capacity. Do not climb on trailer. Hook and Unhook rigging from the ground. Use Taglines. Keep hands off load. Stay clear of pinch points.

7 © 2008 Aker Solutions part of Aker Aker Construction, Inc.Slide 7 Control Option #1: Flat Rack ■ All rigging shall be conducted under the direction of a qualified person. ■ Place the rack on level ground for loading. ■ Evenly distribute the weight of the pieces being loaded on the flat rack. ■ Inspect rigging before each use ●Remove any defective equipment from service ●Ensure components are being used within rated capacity ■ The flat racks shall only be used with the matched lifting frame or Heavy Duty Forklift with a 25 Ton or greater capacity. ■ Do not exceed the flat rack’s 25 ton capacity. ■ Utilize the four rigging points on the flat rack and the matched lifting frame. ■ Use one or more tag lines to control the load.

8 © 2008 Aker Solutions part of Aker Aker Construction, Inc.Slide 8 Control Option #2: Walkway System Tube Steel supports must be secured by suitable means to prevent unintentional movement. A clamp or welded attachment should be used on the inside of the tube steel supports to keep the aluminum picks from sliding on the tube steel support.

9 © 2008 Aker Solutions part of Aker Aker Construction, Inc.Slide 9 Control Option #2: Walkway System Use standard material to cover gap between picks and secure in place. Mark an area on the picks to establish the appropriate area the pick should rest on the yellow tube steel supports. DO NOT CANTILEVER PICKS OVER TUBE STEEL SUPPORTS!!!

10 © 2008 Aker Solutions part of Aker Aker Construction, Inc.Slide 10 Control Option #2: Walkway System ■ Walkways are to be used only if none of the methods under control option #1 are feasible. ■ Proper manual lifting method shall be used. All Loads over 50 lbs will require the use of mechanical assistance or utilize the buddy system. ■ Stay clear of pinch points. Watch body positioning while erecting the walkway system. ■ Yellow tube steel supports must be placed on the trailer and secured by binder straps. ■ 14” x 20’ long aluminum picks will be placed on the yellow tube steel supports. ●Verify the picks are fully supported by tube steel supports. ●Do not cantilever the picks over the supports and create an unstable walkway ●The picks shall be marked to identify the acceptable area for the pick to rest on the yellow tube steel supports

11 © 2008 Aker Solutions part of Aker Aker Construction, Inc.Slide 11 Control Option #2: Walkway System ■ DO NOT CLIMB ON MATERIAL LOADED ON TRAILER/WAGON. STAY ON WALKWAYS! ■ Awareness of body positioning is critical. Care must be exercised to ensure employees do not walk off the ends or sides of the aluminum picks. ■ Other systems may be used lieu of walkway system as long as requirements are met (i.e. Aerial Lifts, Ladders, Trailer beds, etc.)

12 © 2008 Aker Solutions part of Aker Aker Construction, Inc.Slide 12 Control Option #3: Fall Arrest System: Only For Unloading Trailer System will accommodate 2 workers Trolley system allows freedom of movement from post to center of beam where stop is located. Trolley beam is 25 feet in length

13 © 2008 Aker Solutions part of Aker Aker Construction, Inc.Slide 13 Control Option #3: Fall Arrest System: Only For Unloading Trailer ■ When it is not feasible to use control option #1 or #2 and personnel must climb on the load, a personnel fall arrest system shall be used. ■ Several portable fall arrest systems are commercially available. ●Example ■ LIFLINE Portable Fall Arrest System ●Most systems accommodate 1 or 2 people ●Various styles available to suit jobsite conditions ●Refer to operator’s manual of selected system for specific operation and training requirements

14 © 2008 Aker Solutions part of Aker Aker Construction, Inc.Slide 14 Control Option #3: Fall Arrest System: Only For Unloading Trailer ■ When use of a fixed or portable fall arrest system is not feasible fall protection will be accomplished by using a crane and Self Retracting Lifeline (SRL). ●When all other options are not feasible or create a greater hazard this option will be used. ■ All components of the system must be capable of supporting 5,000 lbs per worker attached ■ Rigged to limit free fall to six feet or less the system ●must completely arrest a fall prior to an employee contacting the ground or next level ■ Crane must be setup within 1% of level and configured to support 5,000 lbs per worker attached ■ A self retracting lifeline (SRL) of sufficient length to access the load will be selected and rigged above the headache ball by shackle and minimum 5/8” wire rope sling.

15 © 2008 Aker Solutions part of Aker Aker Construction, Inc.Slide 15 Control Option #3: Fall Arrest System: Only For Unloading Trailer ■ Crane Operator will swing rigged SRL over the work area and as high as practical. ●At a minimum the SRL will be over the head of workers ■ Operator will engage brakes and shut the crane off after SRL is in position ■ Operator will exit crane and lock door ■ Keys shall be given to supervisor of the operation ■ Once keys are in possession of supervisor worker can attach SRL and access load. ■ After work is complete ●Employee shall climb down ●Disconnect SRL ●Slowly release the snap hook to the housing of the SRL ●Supervisor verifies all employees have disconnected from the SRL(s) ●Supervisor returns keys to operator and crane may return to service ■ A waiver in favor of the crane rental company will be supplied if required.

16 © 2008 Aker Solutions part of Aker Aker Construction, Inc.Slide 16 Trailer Loading/Unloading Procedures – General Info ■ Park Trailer ●Trailer shall be parked in a designated area determined by the foreman. ●Parked on firm level ground if possible ●Wheels Chocked ●Control area around sides of trailer with barricades or sentries ■ Trailer Access ●Prior to accessing, brace material from shifting, sliding or rolling ●Use trailer ladder of proper height ●Remove any snow and ice ■ Use weed burners, chemical de-icer’s or wait for sun to melt
