Construction Tech Talk: Wearable Safety Tech
We’ve all seen that iconic picture (and modern recreations of it) of the ironworkers eating lunch 800 feet above Manhattan near the top of the Rockefeller Center with no safety harnesses to be seen. I know it was a publicity stunt to promote the new building, but it still makes me queasy knowing that a stiff breeze could cause a serious incident. A lot has changed regarding site safety in the past hundred years or so…hard hats, safety goggles, and reflective vests are all mandatory. It’d be unheard of to walk out on a beam 69 floors up on a modern construction site without being tied to a safety tether.
