Demo and Replace Parapet Wall Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA)

The nature of parapet walls means that they are exposed and may need to be demolished and replaced. On a building, a parapet wall can be described as where the wall meets the roof. Given the high nature of parapet walls, there are certain risks associated with their demolition and replacement. The Demo and Replace Parapet Wall Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA) app is an incredibly useful app for contractors or construction companies that wish to evaluate the potential hazards and risks associated with this activity and to find ways to implement safety controls. The user of this app can perform a comprehensive risk assessment by noting every step of the demo work and replacement work and identifying risks associated with each step, and mitigating strategies that can be implemented. For example, when working on parapet walls at a height, fall hazards are present, and these can be mitigated through using personal protection equipment such as fall protection and fall arrest devices. This hazard analysis can be easily applied to figure out the severity and probability of risks posing significant occupational safety threats. This app can ensure that a contractor is aware of hazardous situations, and has the tools to implement safety and health measures to keep a work area safe and productive.
