Worker […] found himself in the blind spot of the paver.

A worker crushed by a paver on a construction site in Laval.

 

 

 

The CNESST has made public the findings of its investigation on the industrial accident that killed a specialized laborer for Réhabilitation DU O inc., on November 15, 2018 in Laval.

 

Causes of accident

The investigation enabled the CNESST to retain two causes to explain the accident:

  • The worker, who was directing traffic at the intersection of de la Bernina and Boisvert streets, found himself in the blind spot of the paver. He didn’t notice that the paver was moving and was therefore crushed.
  • Traffic control at intersection de la Bernina and Boisvert streets was lacking, especially in regards to training the traffic signaler and the opening of Boisvert Street for circulation.

Weighing system Speed Weigh Technology (SWT) - An exclusivity of PFREUNDT

The quickest way to weigh. Weigh, don‘t wait!

PFREUNDT Speed Weigh Technology (SWT)

 

 

 

The Speed Weigh Technology is a novel measuring principle developed by the PFREUNDT Research Department to simplify and accelerate methods of working in practice.

 

Digital angle sensors allow existing measuring ranges to be extended. Weights will show after brief lifting. The measuring range will no longer need to be fully passed with constant speed.

 

In addition, the PFREUNDT Speed Weigh Technology is much more stable for all terrains and less subject to pressure fluctuations. The system is suited for use on wheel loaders, also with hydraulic parallel guidance or boost cylinders.
