5. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROCESS

5.1. Field Control Measures

 Before starting the loading or unloading tasks, the supervision must carry out an inspection
of the work areas to determine the risks and the type and quantity of safety measures to be
implemented, which must be recorded in the ART (job risk analysis).
 Before loading or unloading materials or equipment from trucks, the weight and center of
gravity of the load must be defined. Review the nomenclature of the structures.
 Choose the place where the maneuver will be carried out, with enough space for the
equipment, without overhead power lines within the critical radius of the maneuvers and if
they exist, maintain safety distances (established in the annexes), or de-energize if strictly
necessary.
 CONPRETEDECOR CHILE
Safe Work Procedure PTS-04
Loading, Moving and Unloading of Materials Version 01

 The person in charge of the activity must define the equipment, supervision and personnel
that will participate in the maneuvers. Check that personnel are accredited and/or licensed
for each task.
 Select and inspect equipment and hoisting elements to be used according to the
maneuvering radius versus the weight of the load to be mounted or hoisted.
 Isolate the maneuvering area with marking cones.

5.2. Work Methodology

 Delimit the work area and signage that both warns and prevents access by persons not
involved in the work; reflective cones may be used.
 Position the crane or hoisting equipment on stable and compact ground to prevent it from
tipping over. Always use a wooden base for the telescopic crane outriggers, which must be
100% extended. In the case of forklifts, check the area where the equipment will circulate
and the area where personnel will transit.
 Place equipment, structures and materials on wooden elements to facilitate their
subsequent loading or removal.
 When loading materials on the ramp of a truck, no worker may be positioned on the ramp
when the load is hoisted and moving on the ramp. The worker will be able to direct the load
with the windings (maneuvering ropes) and will only be able to manipulate it when it is
already 50 cm away. from the place of support of the load.

 It is strictly forbidden for a worker to expose extremities between the load and any element
or structure where he/she is exposed to entrapment.

5.3. Transportation

 Before starting, the driver must make a detailed inspection of the load and its lashings,
which must be in good condition and in adequate quantity, so that the load will not shift or
fall off the transport platform.
 Slings must be protected from sharp edges.
 All cargo that does not have a stable base must have a packaging system of such
resistance that it does not allow it to shift or lose stability, according to its weight, volume
and characteristics, from the platform of the transport vehicle.
 CONPRETEDECOR CHILE
Safe Work Procedure PTS-04
Loading, Moving and Unloading of Materials Version 01

 When transporting oversized or special loads on roads and highways, an escort truck must
precede the truck transporting the load itself.
 The escort vehicle must be in perfect mechanical condition.
 Once the transport has been completed and the cargo has arrived at its final destination, it
should be inspected in detail to verify that it has not shifted on the truck bed or ramp during
transport, before unloading.
 If the transported material or equipment is improperly stowed, damaged or does not appear
to be in safe conditions for unloading, with the risk that it could cause a personal and/or
material accident, the unloading maneuver will not be carried out until a specific analysis of
the unloading activity has been performed, in coordination with the Supervisor, Area
Manager or Site Superintendent, to make decisions in this regard.
 A bill of lading or invoice must be available for road transportation.
 Vehicles must have all documentation and insurance up to date.

5.4. Truck Loading and Unloading

 The loading and unloading of trucks with unstable materials must be controlled by a
Supervisor responsible for the site. Unstable loads are those that can roll, tip over, slide,
and in general those loads that can acquire sudden and/or uncontrolled movement when
released from their stowage or rigging. Examples of this are reels, pulleys, spools and
those loads where the center of gravity is displaced or outside the piece to be unloaded.
 The loading or unloading of trucks by personnel external to the site is prohibited. Special
prohibition applies to drivers or truck assistants of third parties, who naturally tend to want
to intervene in the stowage or rigging of loads.
 The loading / unloading of trucks shall be done using appropriate hoisting, loading,
stowage, rigging, etc., duly inspected by SK trained personnel.
 It is forbidden to move a truck loaded with unstable materials once the cargo lashings have
been released.
 Once the lashing elements of the materials being transported by the truck have been
released, support elements will be used to give stability to the truck's load, thus avoiding
unexpected and/or uncontrolled movements. In addition, wooden wedges will be used to be
installed between reels; the quantities used to separate them will be proportional to the size
of the reels or spools; these elements do not allow them to roll to the sides once the load is
released.
 CONPRETEDECOR CHILE

Loading, Moving and Unloading of Materials Version 01

5.5. Loading and Unloading Materials with Crane

 The driver of the means of transport must leave the cabin with his basic personal protection
equipment (helmet, glasses, safety shoes and reflective vest) and for no reason will he be
allowed to participate in the unloading operation; he must remain outside this activity. The
vehicle must be in position and braked.
 The cargo must be released from its transport lashings and without people on the cargo.
The dispatch guide will be reviewed.
 Steel straps and slings must be used, according to the weight, length, size, shape and
center of gravity of the load; the edges must be protected with rubber, wood or half rods to
avoid deformation or damage to the straps and slings.
 Place perlon winds at the ends of the load to avoid sudden movements and to direct the
final position of the load. Winds will be controlled by at least one person.
 The lifting elements must be tensioned by lifting the crane hook, without displacing the load.
 The rigger will indicate verbally or with signals the maneuver to be executed.
 The load must be located according to the Supervision requirements.

5.6. Loading and unloading with fork crane / Front loader / Agricultural tractor / Backhoe
loader

 Prior to the start of the activity, the Foreman together with the operator shall verify the
conditions of the ground (slopes, compaction, etc.).
 The forklift is designed exclusively for transporting and lifting, under no circumstances is it
permitted to move or lift personnel, oversized loads or misuse the equipment.
 The forklift crane operator must have current documentation for its operation, be familiar
with it and its critical points, use his personal protection elements and carry out periodic
revisions of his visual and audible signaling systems, keeping a record of his equipment
checks. When descending from the equipment you must wear your safety helmet.
 The operator must participate in the coordination talks, risk control activities and make his
ideas and/or suggestions known.
 The capacity of the fork crane and the metallic forks must be selected according to the
weight, volume, shape and center of gravity of the load.
 CONPRETEDECOR CHILE
Safe Work Procedure PTS-04
Loading, Moving and Unloading of Materials Version 01

 For unloading, the forklift should be positioned in front of the truck or cargo ramp, placing
the forks completely inside the lifting spaces.
 When the last load is lifted, it will be lifted about fifty centimeters above the ramp, keeping it
inclined towards the equipment about ten degrees, allowing the truck to get out and the
load not to slip from the nails. The truck must drive forward, away from the turning radius of
the crane.
 To load, the forklift will lift the load about fifty centimeters above the ramp and move to the
truck's location, positioning the load on wooden quarters.
 To move cargo from one point to another, and if the load impedes visibility, the equipment
will be operated in reverse.

5.7. Special Cargo Transportation

 The Transportation Company responsible for the Special Cargo Transportation must apply
for the corresponding permits to use the road under these conditions or under other
conditions that may be necessary according to the regulations in force and regulated by the
aforementioned authority, before the Highway Department of the region where the cargo is
coming from. The shipper of the cargo must verify that these permits have been obtained
and are valid before authorizing the departure of the cargo to its destination.
 The movement of the cargo must be coordinated with the Carabineros of each city through
which the cargo circulates.
 Likewise, the respective permits must be reported and requested in each municipality, as a
result of a possible hindrance to free traffic in their area.
 The truck driver must be in possession of the permits issued by the Dirección de Vialidad,
which must be delivered to the Warehouse Manager.
 In case the Special Cargo Transport impedes the free circulation of other vehicles, due to
the dimensions of the cargo, the Company responsible for the transport of the cargo must
request the support of Carabineros de Chile, in order to restrict the transit of vehicles to
ensure the passage of the caravan.
 The circulation of Special Cargo Transportation will be preferably done with natural light. If
this is not possible, the respective contingency plan will be generated due to the extra risk
posed by nighttime traffic. Schedules will be coordinated to prevent Transportation from
interfering with the normal transportation of personnel to or from the Project.
 CONPRETEDECOR CHILE
Safe Work Procedure PTS-04
Loading, Moving and Unloading of Materials Version 01

 Companies responsible for the transport of oversized or irregular loads must fully comply
with the provisions set forth in Title V of Law 18290, regarding the technical conditions of
the vehicles that carry out the transport, the conditions of the load and the safety measures
that must be taken into consideration.
