In the construction industry, workers are exposed to silica dust nearly every day on worksites. Examples of the most severe exposures to crystalline silica result are from sandblasting to removing paint and rust from stone buildings, metal bridges, tanks, and other surfaces. Other activities that are likely to produce crystalline silica dust exposure include jack hammering, rock/well drilling, concrete mixing, concrete drilling, and brick and concrete block cutting and sawing. Also, tunneling operations; repair or replacement of linings of rotary kilns and cupola furnaces; along with setting, laying and repair of railroad track are also potential sources of crystalline silica exposure.
