Victorian standard on erection of structural steel

WorkSafe Victoria has launched a new industry standard on the Safe Erection of Structural Steel for Buildings.

This industry standard has been designed to raise awareness of the dangers associated with erection of structural steel in the construction industry.

The standard provides practical guidance for the design, fabrication, transportation and erection of steel members for buildings, and to eliminate and reduce the risk to health and safety of employees and contractors involved in structural steel and the public in the vicinity.

To download the standard visit the WorkSafe Victoria website.
