Rock Drills - Engineering Control Methods

In the process of rock drilling, abrasive dust particles become airborne in large quantities, which when inhaled, can lead to long-term respiratory problems. A correctly configured extraction ventilation system is hugely important in maintaining a safe and productive workplace.

For legal requirements refer to The CDC

For a complete list of engineering control methods, see below.
