  • If the Hat Fits, Wear It!
    If the hat fits, wear it! By Canon Jim Foley Before I put pen to paper let me declare my interests. My grandfather, Michael Foley, was a silk hatter in one of the many small artisan businesses in Claythorn Street that were so characteristic of the Calton district of Glasgow in late Victorian times. Hence my genetic interest in hats of any kind, from top hats that kept you at a safe distance, to fascinators that would knock your eye out if you got too close. There are hats and hats. Beaver: more of a hat than an animal As students for the priesthood in Rome the wearing of a ‘beaver’ was an obligatory part of clerical dress. Later, as young priests we were required, by decree of the Glasgow Synod, to wear a hat when out and about our parishes. But then, so did most respectable citizens. A hat could alert you to the social standing of a citizen at a distance of a hundred yards. The earliest ‘top’ hats, known colloquially as ‘lum’ hats, signalled the approach of a doctor, a priest or an undertaker, often in that order. With the invention of the combustion engine and the tram, lum hats had to be shortened, unless the wearer could be persuaded to sit in the upper deck exposed to the elements with the risk of losing the hat all together. I understand that the process of shortening these hats by a few inches led to a brief revival of the style and of the Foley family fortunes, but not for long.

  • Assessing Next-Generation Construction Helmets
    Assessing Next-Generation May 2018 Construction Helmets The KASK - Zenith and Superplasma Helmets Skanska’s Advancement In Head Protection Pilot Program Current Status Currently, Skanska uses the MSA V-Gard as its primary choice of hard hat head protection. This hard hat was introduced to the US 56 years ago. The V Guard (and all other regular styles of hard hats) primarily protects against objects striking the crown of a person’s head. This type of head protection offers minimal, if any protection to the front, rear and sides of the head. Comparatively, head protection such as the KASK helmet (not a hard hat) offers much more protection. Although it is listed as Type I head protection, it has passed ANSI Type II impact tests to the front, rear and sides. The Need for Change Skanska USA is investigating the advancements of head protection for employees working on its projects. Helmets being piloted on our projects include products from KASK, MSA Nexius, and 3M X5000. There are many reasons why we are looking to improve the current head protection. The primary reason is the fact that head injuries of all classifications still occur on our projects. These injuries vary on the spectrum of severity, from minimal in nature to catastrophic. Plain and simple: changes in head protection are needed in our industry. Skanska is looking to champion these efforts through an in-depth evaluation of different types of head protection, including the KASK helmets described in this white paper. A thorough list of the reasons for change include: • During any fall incident (slips, trips and falls from the same level, falls from ladders, falls from wall forms, etc.) the current hard hat is prone to fall off a worker’s head prior to impact because of the tendency for the head to “snap backwards,” leaving the head exposed when protection is most needed.

  • Equestrian Helmet Information Approved Equestrian Helmets • ASTM/SEI Approved Helmets Will Have a Tag Or Sticker Inside the Helmet
    Equestrian Helmet Information Approved Equestrian Helmets • ASTM/SEI approved helmets will have a tag or sticker inside the helmet. • Equestrian helmets offer additional protection to the back of the head and also provide protection to specific areas of the head relating to falls from horses. How to check if a helmet is approved Inside an equestrian helmet you will find ASTM/SEI certification information Approved Helmets There are various types of approved equestrian helmets. English, Schooling, Western, and Derby Unapproved Helmets • Bicycle helmets, Skateboarding helmets, ATV helmets, and Motorcycle helmets are NOT approved for equestrian use. • Bicycle Helmets, Skateboarding Helmets and Equestrian Riding Helmets are not all the same. While similar in appearance, bicycle helmets are not subject to design specifications and standards that a riding helmet must pass in order to provide adequate protection. • Hunt caps are NOT ASTM/SEI certified. These caps do not offer protection in the event of a fall. Bike Helmet Bike Helmet Skateboarding Helmet ATV Helmet Hunt Cap Properly Fitted Helmets • A correctly sized helmet sits down snugly on your head and covers your entire skull with equal pressure all around. • No gap exists between your helmet and your head; even pressure with the lining allows the helmet to absorb force in an accident. How to Measure Your Head • Before you begin, you'll need a soft fabric measuring tape with centimeter increments. • Place the tape measure snugly around your head at the widest point about one inch above your eyebrows. Make sure the tape goes over the bump at the back of your head and that it is just above the top of your ears.
