According to the EPA "a growing body of scientific evidence has indicated that the air within homes and other buildings can be more seriously polluted than the outdoor air in even the largest and most industrialized cities.
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.
This webinar will take a closer look fire loss' from an environmental prospective. We will discuss both wildfire and structural fire claims and discuss the different approaches for each type of loss. We will look at the differences between a wildfire and structural fire chemistry and difference forms of combustion by-products produced by each. We will also take an in-depth look at the current analytical methods available to investigators to determine the types and concentrations of combustion related contaminants found in a building after a fire.
