Description
In the age of industrialisation having main focus on increased production, higher productivity, stringent quality, minimizing cost etc., it has become essential to have more knowledge on industrial safety and various hazards with their remedial measures. Maintenance aspects are also gaining importance, as they have substantial impact on production, productivity, workers safety and their health and working environment. Neglect of safety in an industry at any stage. from concept to design, erection, commissioning, operation and maintenance of plant and machinery may lead to loss of life, production and money. It is hoped that this book will be very useful for the engineering student and professionals. The book covers the AICTE model curriculum and the syllabii of various other Indian university on the subject.
