Safe Construction Solutions at Sea During Rainy Season?

The rainy season is typically not recommended for construction to ensure the best quality for projects. However, in coastal areas, dealing with frequent storms requires contractors to always be ready with contingency plans to ensure on-time construction.

In addition, constructing projects at sea during the rainy season demands meticulous preparation and special attention to the safety of workers. Here are some crucial solutions to ensure safety in this harsh environment.

Utilize Modern Machinery and Equipment With advancements in science and technology, the construction industry has witnessed the development of various machinery and equipment. Specifically, in offshore construction, the introduction of platforms, floating rigs, and jack-up rigs has met the demands of construction in challenging conditions.

Monitor Weather Forecasts and Develop Specific Plans for Each Component to Deal with Disasters Carefully and continuously monitor weather forecasts to know when storms may approach. Construction teams should have ready plans to move away from the sea when necessary. Responsibilities should be assigned as follows:

Technical Directors: Prepare and approve technological measures, allocate manpower for rapid installation and temporary repairs for living and production.

Engineers: Compile and draft construction measures, provide guidance, organize and coordinate.

Construction Teams: In charge of building and implementing safety and quality-assured measures using technology.

Inventory Department: Plan material procurement, supply necessary machinery on time to meet the construction schedule.

Regularly Inspect and Maintain Equipment, Protect Materials during Rainy Season Ensure that all equipment and vessels at sea are regularly inspected and maintained. This includes ships, lifting equipment, cables, and anchor points.

Furthermore, construction materials are often most vulnerable during the rainy season. Therefore, contractors must take meticulous measures to protect materials to maintain their quality.

Train Employees, Conduct Safety Drills, and Develop Evacuation Plans Ensure that all employees receive training in offshore safety and know how to respond to emergency situations. They should be familiar with using safety equipment such as life jackets, helmets, and safety harnesses.

Additionally, organize training sessions and drills to familiarize workers with emergency scenarios and test safety plans. In the event of a storm, have a safe evacuation plan in place to ensure the safety of human lives and property.

Maintain Regular Communication with Relevant Authorities Maintain regular communication with relevant authorities such as the Fisheries Department, Customs Department, and the Meteorological and Hydrological Forecast Center to stay updated on sea and weather conditions.

Safety at sea during the rainy season is a top priority and requires careful attention and preparation from all parties involved in a project.
