Containment bracketry installation: energy sources and direct controls

Installing unistrut framing and bracketry involves overhead drilling into concrete, anchor loads and power tool use above other trades.

High-energy check

Unistrut lengths and drills dropped from height can exceed the 1500 J trigger. Overhead concrete drilling produces noise and dust this tool does not calculate.

Run the gravity calculator for this task

Trigger checks

Mechanical
Moving parts, tools, tension, rotation or stored mechanical force.
Sound
Harmful noise or impulse sound.

Direct controls to verify

Ticks stay on this screen only. Nothing is saved or sent.

Anchors are installed to the specified torque and checked.
Unistrut lengths are cut at a designated station, not overhead.
Tools and fixings at height are tethered or contained.
The area below overhead drilling is excluded or protected.
Drilling into concrete uses dust extraction.
Hearing protection is worn during drilling and cutting.

For your SPA or pre-start

State the fixing method and anchor loads, how lengths and tools are secured at height, and the exclusion or protection below the work.
