JouleCheck
Understand the energy before the task starts.
Scan the energy sources, calculate what can be calculated, and verify direct controls.
Energy-Based Safety ranks hazards by the amount of energy that could reach a person: more energy means more severe injury. JouleCheck applies the method to data centre construction: scan the task, calculate what can be calculated, and verify a direct control for anything high energy.
New to the approach? What is Energy-Based SafetyHow it works
- Pick your task64 data centre construction activities across 7 phases.
- See the energy sourcesAll ten energies scanned, high-energy hazards flagged at 1500 J.
-
Verify direct controlsShort, physical checks to confirm before work starts.
Example: Suspended load
GravityA 90 kg pipe spool lifted 2 metres stores about 1766 J, above the 1500 J high-energy trigger (about 1106 ft-lb).
E = m x g x h = 90 x 9.81 x 2 = 1765.8 J
