Class Assignment 3 - MMH For this assignment you will use the tools learned in class and can choose to use the on-line calculator (Liberty Mutual) if preferred, to assess the risk associated with several manual material handling tasks. Assignment Requirements 1. For each manual material handling task, select the correct tool and complete a risk assessment of the task. 2. Interpret the results: state the level of risk involved and provide rational for your decision. 3. Develop two solutions to improve the risk associated with the task. 4. Create a summary report with your findings. Report Template Provided 5. Submit the report to eConestoga by 11:59 PM today. Report Requirements An overview of the tasks - broken down into individual MMH tasks to be assessed. If you use an online tool provide a screen shot that shows the completed assessment results produced by the calculator for each task. To do this you can take a screen shot once the calculation is complete. Provide an overall risk rating for the task, interpret the results and justify for your risk rating. The entire report should be completed in one single document. Do not upload multiple documents. List 2 improvement suggestions for each task. Correct formatting, grammar, and spelling is required. Use the report format provided It is the responsibility of each student to review their work before uploading the assignment as well as confirming the upload was done correctly immediately after doing so. Re-submitting incorrectly uploaded documents AFTER they have been marked will not be allowed. . . . / Evaluation Criteria (per task) Select the correct calculator tools Correct completion of the assessment Correct interpretation of the results Develop 2 improvement suggestions 152 . 14 12 (x 3) Task 1 DINNER VED O Description: The worker lifts and transfers the box from the rack (Origin) to the top of the shelving unit (Destination), stepping toward the shelving unit and pivoting his feet to perform this task. Significant control of the object is not required at the destination. The Horizontal Location (H) of the hands is 15" at the origin. The Vertical Location (V) of the hands is 17" at the origin The Vertical Location (V) is 36" at the destination. The Asymmetric Angle (A) is 30 degrees at the origin. The container is of less optimal design as it does not have handholds. The average frequency of lifting in this manner is 1 lift every 2 minutes over a duration of an 8-hour period. The weight of every container is 28 lbs. . Task 2 Description: The worker carries boxes from the storage area to his truck 8 meters away. Each box is carried at waist height and weighs approximately 48 lbs. . The production rate for this operation requires the worker to move 12 boxes every hour. Task 3 This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY-SA Description: Every hour, the worker must push a loaded cart (on castors) between plane and storage area that are 100 ft away from each other. The handle of the cart is roughly 42" from the ground. It takes 24 lbs of force to get the cart moving and then 12 lb. of force to keep it moving.
