APPLIED HYDRAULICS

Practical
Batch: K22CE

Lab Instructor: Engr. Wazeer Hussain


Civil Engineering Department
Mehran UET SZAB Campus Khairpur
Mirs’
EXPERIMENT NO. 01
OBJECT: INTRODUCTION TO HEALTH AND SAFETY
MEASURES IN APPLIED HYDRAULICS LABORATORY

 Health and safety measures are very important in every laboratory


including Applied Hydraulics laboratory as well as while performing
experiments in field in order to prevent hazardous situations.
 Some of the attempts towards health and safety measures, which
should be taken by laboratory persons are given below
Supervisor:
 A person who has charge of a workplace or authority over a worker
is known as a “SUPERVISOR”.
 A faculty member is deemed to be the supervisor for graduate
students.
 Usually course instructors are considered supervisors for the
undergraduate laboratories associated with that course
Responsibilities of
Supervisor:
 The supervisor has overall safety responsibility for the students
under his/her direction.
 Regular formal safety and housekeeping inspections shall be
conducted by the supervisor.
Following are the responsibilities of a supervisor:
 Appropriate safety orientation lecture to the workers or students
prior
starting of their experimental work.
 Ensuring to a laboratory space or prior to the starting of their
experimental work.
Responsibilities of
Supervisor:
 Providing a copy of the Safety and Hazards Manual to the
workers and ensuring that he/she reads through the manual
carefully before starting any experimental work.
 Ensuring that the worker has appropriate safety gear (e.g. Lab
coat, eye protection glasses, mask, gloves and appropriate
footwear)
 Consideration of the health and safety aspects of the
experimental work in the development of the experiment.
 Ensuring that adequate emergency equipment in proper working
order is readily available (with the exception of building systems
such as eyewash, safety shower, etc.)
Responsibilities of
Supervisor:
 Including safety as agenda item at all regular meetings.
 Ensuring that an accident/incident investigation report is completed
for every accident or incident occurring in the lab.
 Ensuring that appropriate cautionary signs are posted and
maintained.

Student’s Responsibility
Students must:
 Participate in safety training
 Use protective safety equipment as recommended by the
supervisor or product labeling.
 Wear appropriate clothing (e.g. No open –toed shoes in laboratory,
no lose clothing).
 Do not remove safety devices (shielding, guards, etc.)
 Read operating instructions or ask for training by the technician or
supervisor before operating any equipment.
Student’s Responsibility
Students must:
 Report hazards and accidents to the supervisor and laboratory
technician.
 Should wear mask if he is allergic to dust while conducting practical
in field.
 Should handle and place instruments properly.
Should not play with pointed instruments.
Student’s Responsibility
Students must:
 Keep an eye on surrounding temperature, one should not work in
high temperatures.
 Keep yourself hydrated while doing work in field.
 While doing experiments in field, one should take care of
himself/herself as Health and safety services are limited in field
often.
