Industrial Safety Audit

Examination of project documentation

Examination of project documentation involves the study of documents of the object at any of the stages of construction, modernization, overhaul or reconstruction. Examination can be carried out both in full and on sections.

Examination of project documentation is mandatory if you need to obtain a building permit. In addition, such a study may be required if:

• there was a need to check the quality of the design work produced;
• verification of technology of individual stages of construction is necessary;
• The relevant requirements of the supervisory authorities were set;
• changes were made to the construction documentation of the object.

Экспертиза technical devices

One of the most important types of expert works in the field of industrial safety is reasonably considered to be expertise technical devices.

Examination of industrial safety of technical devices is an assessment of the compliance of their technical condition with the approved standards and current regulations.

The technical devices used at a hazardous production facility are: machines, technological equipment, systems of machines and / or equipment, units, equipment, mechanisms involved in the operation of a hazardous production facility.

A technical device used at a hazardous production facility is subject to examination (unless a technical regulation establishes another form of conformity assessment of the specified device to mandatory requirements):

• prior to use at a hazardous production facility;
• upon the expiration of the service life or when exceeding the number of load cycles of such a technical device installed by its manufacturer;
• if there is no data in the technical documentation about the service life of such a technical device, if its actual service life exceeds 20 years;
• after carrying out work associated with a change in the design, replacement of the material of the supporting elements of such a technical device, or reconditioning after an accident or incident at a hazardous production facility, as a result of which such a technical device was damaged.

In expert analysis, devices that could potentially become a source of danger to the life or health of workers at hazardous production facilities, property, as well as damage to people and objects located outside the hazardous production facility are subject to verification.

In accordance with Article 13 of Federal Law No. 116-FZ, industrial safety expertise is subject to:

• documentation of conservation, liquidation of a hazardous production facility;
• documentation for the technical re-equipment of a hazardous production facility if the specified documentation is not included in the design documentation of such an object to be examined in accordance with the legislation on urban planning activities;
• technical devices used at hazardous production facilities, in cases established by article 7 of Federal Law No. 116-FZ;
• buildings and structures at a hazardous production facility, intended for the implementation of technological processes, storage of raw materials or products, movement of people and goods, localization and liquidation of consequences of accidents;
• the industrial safety declaration developed as part of the technical re-equipment documentation (in case the specified documentation is not included in the project documentation of the hazardous production facility to be examined in accordance with the legislation on urban planning), conservation, liquidation of the hazardous production facility, or newly developed declaration industrial safety;
• safety justification of a hazardous production facility, as well as changes made in the safety justification of a hazardous production facility.

What documents are needed for the examination of prom. safety equipment?

1. Technical passport of the equipment
2. Device test certificate
3. The act of commissioning of the equipment
4. Drawings containing information about the functions and principles of operation of the device
5. Project documentation with a list of technical parameters
6. Documents with information about the operating conditions of the equipment, as well as methods of testing and the frequency of diagnosis
7. Documents on previous examinations with a description of the current technical condition of the devices
8. Reports on the performance of work in the framework of current repair, capital repairs, and equipment renovations
9. Acts of investigation of emergency situations associated with the breakdown of devices

Examination of buildings and structures

In respect buildings and structures at a hazardous production facility, intended for the implementation of technological processes, storage of raw materials or products, movement of people and goods, localization and liquidation of consequences of accidents, are subject to expertise:

• in the event of the expiration of the life of the building or structure established by the project documentation;
• in the absence of project documentation, or in the project documentation there is no data on the life of the building or structure;
• after an accident at a hazardous production facility, as a result of which the supporting structures of these buildings and structures were damaged;
• upon the expiration of the safe operation periods established by the expert opinion.

Экспертиза industrial safety declarations

Экспертиза industrial safety declarations is carried out in order to establish the completeness and reliability of the data reflected in the safety declaration of an existing or projected industrial facility.
