CONCRETING
Concrete is composed of cement, sand, aggregates (size stones), and water. When mixed in
correct amounts, concrete is a stable and versatile building medium which can be used in a
variety of applications ranging from roads, bridges and buildings, to septic tank and ever
countertops for household use. The versatility in building applications is accomplished by
altering the proportions of air and other variables in the mixture. Strengthening materials such
as rebar, fiber glasses, and plastic rods, are then added.
For workers protection, the following precautions should be adhered to when working with
concrete.
Try not to over exert yourself when mixing or moving concrete, especially when using a
wheelbarrow, shovel, or trough. Concrete is extremely heavy and caution must be taken
19
to avoid back, shoulder, or other muscle strains. Keep yourself physically fit and
performing re-work stretching exercises can aid in injury prevention.
Always safety glasses when mixing or pouring concrete. The lime and cement dust can
be very irritating to the eyes. If it enters your eyes, rinse for 15 minutes. If eyes are still
irritated, see medical attention.
Always wear gloves and long sleeve shirt, if possible, when working with concrete. The
cement can cause irritation when it comes into contact with skin. Lime burns are
common in the industry but can be lessen by barriers cream or gloves to protect hands
and forearms from industrial dermatitis.
Read and heed the manufacturers recommendations on concrete additives, acids for
itching, form release oils, or other chemicals used in conjunction with concrete
Your supervisor should recommend the correct Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for
the specific task and provide the appropriate Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).

2) Keep the patient warm with blanket or coat but don’t overheat him or apply
external heat.
3) Three things are of primary importance when you approach a seriously injured
person.
AIRWAY — Make sure the victims airway has not been blocked by the tongue
secretions or some foreign body.
BREATHING — Make sure the person is breathing. If not, administers artificial
respiration.
CIRCULATION — Make sure the patient has a pulse. If none administer
cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR.) while giving CPR, check for bleeding.
4) Although most injured persons can be safely moved, remember that it is vitally
important not to move the person with serious injuries of the neck or back,
unless it is necessary to save him from further danger.
5) Examine the victim gently. Cut clothing if necessary to avoid abrupt movement
or added pain. Don’t pull clothing Away from burns.
6) Reassure the victim, and try to remain yourself calm. Your calmness can ally his
fear and panic and convince him that everything is in control.
34
8) Have someone call for an ambulance, and doctor while you first aid. The doctor
should be informed of the nature of the-emergency and ask what should be
done before his arrival or the arrival of the ambulance.
9) Act fast if the victim is bleeding severely, or the victim has swallowed poison or if
his heart or breathing stopped. Every second count.
TREATMENT OF WOUNDS:
1) Apply antiseptic well down into and around the wounds. Do not pour it direct
into the wounds. Always allow it to dry before covering wounds with sterile
dressing. Never use such antiseptic in or near the eyes.
2) Do not wash a wound with water or attempt to wipe out dirt, Hydrogen peroxide
maybe used for cleaning.
3) Puncture wounds from nails, long splinters, etc. should receive immediate
attention of physician.
4) Do not remove foreign bodies, except small splinters from wounds. These may
be carefully removed with tweezers.
4) Place large sterile gauze compress over wound and put bandage tightly in place.
6) Do not give stimulants. Cold water may be given in small doses only.
BURNS
35
1) Do not break blisters.
2) Carefully cut away clothing from burned area and apply sterile burn solution or
ointment, Never use iodine.
3) Cover burned area lightly with several thickness of sterile gauze or bandage
Never use cottons next to burns
4) In all cases of chemical burns on the skin, thoroughly flush burns with plenty of
clean water then treat as directed above.
5) For chemical burns to the eyes, wash with clean water continuously and bring
the victim to hospital.
POISONING
1) In case of internal poisoning, send for a physician immediately.
2) If patient is conscious, force him to drink large quantity of soapy water, salt or
lukewarm water. Then tickle back the throat with fingers to produce vomiting.
Repeat this treatment several times.
3) After his stomach has been washed out, an antidote for the particular poison maybe
given.
4) Always treat the patient for shock. If breathing stops, apply mouth to mouth
resuscitation.
2) Sprains and injuries to ligaments and joints. Place patient at rest and elevate injured
limb. Cold application will reduce pain and swelling.
36
3) Strains are injuries to muscles and tendons. Real injured muscles, Apply heat and
gently massage injured part. If strain is in the abdominal region, rupture should be
suspected.
EYE INJURIES
1) All cases except the most trivial ones, the patient must be sent to a physician.
2) Foreign body in the eye must never probe or dig the eye of removal of embedded
particles. If the object is floating on the surface, it may be brushed off with sterile
cotton applicator or with a corner of a sterile gauze compress.
3) Do not allow patient to rub his eye, this will only cause great irritation.
6) Never neutralize chemical burns to the eye; it is too risky for a novice to attempt.
Thoroughly and continuously flush eye with clean water, and immediately bring the
patient to the hospital.
7) Cover the eye with a soft gauze compress. Iodine must never be used in or near the
eye.
INJURIES TO BONES
Injuries to bones are sometimes difficult to detect, if a fracture or dislocation is suspected, treat
it as such. Falls and other accidents involving injury to the back or neck may result in a serious
after-effect if the spinal cord is injured. Unless there is imperative need to move an individual
suspected of having a spinal cord injury to a zone safety, the injured is best not to move or
lifted, until a medical aid is obtained
