At Tindall, our number one priority is maximizing safety in construction to get our people home safe every day, whether they’re on a project site, in an office, or at one of our precast, prestressed concrete manufacturing facilities. From engineers to production team members, everyone at Tindall focuses on cultivating a safety culture that minimizes risks at every stage of the precast construction process.
To keep our people safe, we maintain the highest possible standards for safety in the construction industry. While our safety practices typically exceed requirements, we go the extra mile to incorporate our customers’ site-specific safety guidelines into our operations, and Tindall requires subcontractors to establish and maintain a site-specific safety plan for each precast project.
Our Safety Policy Tindall adheres to the highest possible standards for safety in construction at each of our precast manufacturing facilities, as well as each jobsite. Our policies focus on our people and customers, the citizens of the communities in which we work, and the sustainability and protection of the environment. We will only produce, sell, transport, or dispose of products in a safe, environmentally responsible manner.
Tindall Stays Up to Date As an active member of the Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute (PCI), Tindall constantly strives to implement the latest best practices in precast concrete safety structural solutions, design, manufacturing, and field service operations.
Less Risk, Fewer Errors Since precast projects rely on in-plant manufacturing over on-site construction, there are significantly fewer on-site personnel and man-hours on any given project. The result is a reduced risk of potential delays caused by injury, post-event regulatory action, and litigation.
Should an issue arise on a job site, our safety team works closely with the customer’s team to investigate and quickly resolve it. Through a constant emphasis on safety, our management teams are vigilant in training our employees in safe work practices and implementing policies ensuring the same, both on the job site and at our precast manufacturing facilities. We closely monitor the latest news in the precast and construction industries, as well as other information gleaned from incidents within the industry, to ensure we are setting our safety standards as high as practicable.
In addition to our own set of strict safety standards and expectations, precast concrete construction offers a wide range of inherent safety advantages when compared to other traditional construction methods.
In addition to an environmentally controlled manufacturing process that ensures all precast elements meet strict quality control standards prior to arriving on site, precast concrete construction accelerates schedules in a few key ways:
From a site safety standpoint, precast concrete construction dramatically improves site conditions by eliminating the need for:
Additionally, precast concrete construction significantly reduces on-site waste and debris, further minimizing on-site safety hazards.
Many of the factors that make precast concrete one of the safest also make it one of the most sustainable construction materials on the market. In addition to reducing on-site construction waste, minimizing debris, eliminating redundant structural members, and reducing the number of required erection crew members, precast offers a few key sustainability advantages:
Precast concrete construction’s safety benefits don’t just end when the project is complete. Here are a few of the long-term safety advantages of using precast concrete:
Additionally, precast concrete construction significantly reduces on-site waste and debris, further minimizing on-site safety hazards.
