Hot Work for Construction

Hot work includes cutting, welding and other work that generates heat and sparks. Many construction site fires result from hot work taking place without adequate safety precautions. Insurance companies report that hot work losses are among the top causes of loss at the properties they insure. That's not surprising; hot work is a common construction activity, and a fire can do a lot of damage very quickly. Most hot work incidents are preventable. You just need to know what safety precautions to take and then take them.
