CEO CORNER The role of IOT in smart cities development Smart city, first of all constructed with planning and resources are then managed for the best of its citizen. Smart city is clean and pollution free. It generates energy from renewable sources and produce a very less amount pollutants. Smart city is very advanced settlement where superior infrastructure, sustainable energy, communication and connectivity are key factor in providing the better life style for its people. IoT is a small part in the development of a smart city and IoT is not the only that helps in making a city smarter. IoT just provide fast update from around the nodes install in the city. IoT helps in sharing the data in different dept. of the city. For example, consider the traffic lights are attached with CCTV. Now this implementation helps in monitoring the real time traffic. The Traffic police thus can dynamically revert the heavy traffic to less traffic route based on data received from the IoT CCTV node. This method also help in getting the other high priority vehicles like ambulance or police to pass through easily without getting stuck. The GPS nodes in cars help in delivering the real time scenario of the road to the driver, to show the density of the traffic on any particular route. These type of method convert a city in to smart city. Another important aspect is the Energy management and waste management. These need to be controlled in order to have proper environment in the city. Energy Management must controlled at the Power Station only. But also energy must be smartly used at the customer end. Smart cities do not use fossil fuel to generate their power but use unlimited supply of renewable sources like, wind, water, solar, etc. and therefore it clean and sustainable energy for its people. There should not be blind use of the energy. And also, people of the city must not depend only on the power station to fulfill their power needs. The main idea behind any smart city power management is to have the ability to give some contribution to community power by all individual. For example, if all those people who can afford to install a solar power based electricity generator panel then they can at least fulfill 60% of their daily need and remaining will be drawn from the power station. This way the load on power plant will reduced to 50% approximately. And when this method is adopted on mass level there are chance that individuals can sell their generated power for community purpose like street lighting, shops and public places, etc. This will provide a great relief to the power crisis. IoT in smart city is crucial part. May be without IoT, smart city is not smart enough to be called as smart. IoT give the ability to connect resources to different place and access them from one location. A sensor node installed at particular location give data to different dept. of the city and help to understand the exact problem, Thus connecting different dept. of the city. The interconnected dept. provide better solution and it reduce the time to tackle and solve a problem. IoT can be implemented at public place, road and traffic, communities, commercial complex, offices and other utilities dept. IoT can help in manage the assets and resource in the good of the people. IoT provide the intelligence to system and help self-monitoring the environment. Cloud computing helps in storing the dynamic data coming continuously. IoT tracks all the real time activities happening around it and process and store them in the cloud computing. Big data infrastructure helps in easy handling of the data. IoT can be a standalone system or integrated in other to work in parallel. The automation is then provided by the actuator waiting for the input from the sensor node of the IoT.

“Best Practice”: VdS-Coerciveness now regu-lated across Europe One important criterion for the successful use of Intruder Alarm Systems (IAS) is not only the rapid detection and alarming in the event of imminent disaster, but also the so-called false alarm protection. Ultimately, the inad-vertent triggering of inferior systems has extremely negative effects on the reactions of the surroundings as well as the connected security and safety services. Logically, the fourth alarm in a row, which is then genuine, no longer receives the necessary attention. VdS, Europe’s largest institute for burglary protection, has successfully tackled this core problem for decades with the concept of “Coerciveness”. “A large proportion of false triggering is caused by human error during the entry or access of the monitored area – by the Intruder Alarm System operators themselves,” explains Günter Grundmann, head of the VdS-Laboratories for Electronic Security Technology. “We ensure the vital mini-misation of these

The VdS-Concept of IAS Coerciveness is now being adopted as a “best prac-tice” in the upcoming TS 50131-12 and probably also to a worldwide IEC standard (in the picture an IAS test in the VdS-laboratories),

false alarms among other things. A VdS-approved Intruder Alarm System can only be armed from the outside. To re-enter the secure area, the authorised person must first disarm the IAS. Otherwise, the ac-cess is prevented by an additional electromechanical element, a so-called blocking device. A very simple but effective principle.” Despite the initially increased costs for the IAS installation, the minimisation of unwanted

alarms over the entire life cycle of the system leads to high cost savings. In addition, the tried and tested VdS concept ensures that all monitored windows, doors, etc., are closed before it can be armed. Thus, a costly obligation breach of the insurance contract by, for example, tilted windows can be ruled out and excluded. These “Coerciveness” mentioned VdS-requirements for the arming of the systems

have been firmly established in Germany since the 1970s. In the EU guidelines for IAS, EN 501311, this procedure, which was also required in the connection conditions of the German police, was previously listed but not specifically required. This will now change: the responsible body, CENELEC (European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardisation) has adopted “Coerciveness” in its technical specification TS 50131-12, the pre-cursor of a European standard, as a “best practice”. The working group also formulated specific product requirements based on VdSGuidelines. In addi-tion, the TS will probably also be used as a globally valid IEC standard. Grundmann says: “Thanks to the VdS experts and all the partners who con-tribute their expertise in our guidelines – like so much other VdS support, your qualified elaborations in the area of alarm arming have now been adopted into the European Security Standards.”

+ Health Exhibition will be accompanied by the concurrent IX International Occupational Health and Safety Conference. The latter will also be held at the Halic Congress Centre and organised and coordinated by the Turkish Ministry of Labour and Social Security (CSGB). Both events together provide a 360° panorama of the market and key impulses for the further implementation of uniform occupational safety standards as well as for establishing a prevention culture in companies in Turkey and its neighbouring states. A high-quality workplace within companies, which

can be measured thanks to comparable standards, fewer occupational accidents and diseases in Turkey – these were the objectives the GermanTurkish Occupational Safety Dialogue started in Düsseldorf in 2013. Back then Turkey was the partner country of the trade fair A+A with Congress, the biggest expert forum for safety, security and health at work. A partner country that boasts a high user potential for personal protective equipment with its over 20 million insured persons and one that has become an attractive market for PPE suppliers. The market trend and global

rise in interest in occupational safety and occupational medicine was followed by the premiere of TOS+H Expo organised in cooperation with the Turkish Ministry of Labour and Social Security (CSGB) in 2014. Since then the Turkish Occupational Health + Safety Exhibition has been organised by Messe Düsseldorf, supported by the local trade fair organiser Tezulaş Fuar.

2016 saw more than 100 exhibitors from 17 nations present their ranges to over 5,000 trade visitors at TOS+H Expo. The Turkish Occupational Safety + Health Exhibition is part of Messe Düsseldorf’s portfolio for safety and health at work alongside A+A (world’s No. 1 Trade Fair for Safety, Security and Health at Work) in Düsseldorf, COS+H (China International Safety + Health Exhibition) in Beijing, INOS+H (Indian Occupational Safety + Health Exhibition) in New Delhi and OS+H Asia (Occupational Safety + Health Exhibition for Asia) in Singapore.

Making the world safer and healthier The 21st World Congress on Safety & Health at Work 2017, which took place in Singapore on 3-6 September 2017, brought together occupational health and safety professionals, business leaders and government officials from all over the world to share their knowledge and expertise in making workplaces safer and healthier. It is estimated that 2.3 million workers worldwide die every year because of workplace accidents and work-related diseases. Further estimates from the International Labour Organization (ILO) show that every day, 6,400 people die from occupational accidents and diseases and 860,000 are injured at work. ILO Director General Guy Ryder said: “As well as appalling consequences for workers and their families, this represents a colossal social and economic burden on enterprises,

16

communities and countries. Most occupational deaths and diseases are preventable and it would be a mistake to cut back on occupational safety and health, even in the face of economic downturn. Occupational safety and health is a basic human right as well as a labour right.” Speaking on 5 September 2017, at the ‘Wellbeing through Work’ session hosted by the National Safety Council (USA), Mike Robinson, Chief Executive of the British Safety Council, will present the business case for managing health and wellbeing in the workplace and explore the nature of workplace wellbeing. Mike Robinson said: “While the business case for managing

INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW | SEPTEMBER 2017

safety is well documented and understood, the case for managing health and wellbeing is just as compelling, but the progress is not as strong. Health conditions are much more difficult to define and manage. That’s why businesses need to adopt a holistic approach to promoting wellbeing and the resilience of their staff. Progress in relation to health and wellbeing can only be made when organisations will move beyond the need to comply with regulations and inspire employees to engage in wellbeing because this benefits them as well as their companies.” Lawrence Waterman OBE, who will take up his post as Chairman at the British Safety Council on 24 November, will also speak at the World Congress in Singapore on 4 September, at the session entitled ‘A culture of prevention

on OSH’. Drawing on the lessons of the London 2012 Olympic Games construction programme, which achieved a low accident rate and no fatalities, he will demonstrate how to effectively manage health risks in construction through good design and early interventions on issues such as mental health. The World Congress on Safety & Health at Work, which takes place every three years, is on this occasion hosted by the Singapore Ministry of Manpower, in conjunction with the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the International Social Security Association (ISSA). Its work contributes to building a global prevention culture. This year, the Congress will reassess the progress of its Vision Zero initiative, which aims to make global workplaces free of fatal accidents and occupational diseases.

Quantum begins shipping Xcellis workflow storage with Veritone aiWARE artificial intelligence platform Quantum Corp. (NYSE: QTM) announced aiWARE™ for Xcellis®, an on-premise and cloud version of the artificial intelligence (AI) platform from Veritone (NASDAQ: VERI). Bringing Veritone’s multi-engine AI capabilities into a Quantum StorNext®-managed environment, aiWARE for Xcellis enables users to leverage the power of Veritone’s cognitive services and applications -- beginning with optical character recognition (OCR), object detection and speech-to-text transcription as the first network-isolated engines -- to extract new value from their on-premise video and audio content. Situating powerful AI processing behind corporate firewalls, the integrated solution is ideal for companies with significant investments in on-premise storage and/or latency, cost or security concerns about cloud storage.

Maximizing Media Value With AI Using cognitive engines to delve deeper and faster into their content, media companies can gain greater insights and drive increased business and organizational success. For example, aiWARE for Xcellis enables users to: • create more customized video-on-demand offerings through robust metadata tagging of existing content. • provide better ROI data to sponsors by identifying where and how often logos, as well as spoken and text brand integrations, appear in broadcast media and redistributed clips.

• accelerate postproduction work through enhanced context-based search and discovery.

Optimizing Cognitive Analytics With Quantum and Veritone Cognitive engines can deliver greater value when they have more data to analyze. The combination of Quantum’s StorNext-powered Xcellis with Veritone aiWARE enables users to apply AI to on-premise content that previously could not be leveraged for this purpose and to add new content for analysis as that content is captured. The integrated solution also provides the option to leverage Veritone’s continuously evolving array of best-of-breed cognitive engines in the cloud, either exclusively or in concert with on-premise engines, when desired or appropriate.

Availability and Deployment Options aiWARE for Xcellis is available

INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW | SEPTEMBER 2017

now from Quantum and its reseller partners, with three initial deployment options: “Embedded” for containerized deployment on an existing Xcellis workflow storage system, “Standard” delivered on an Xcellis Application Director for more processing performance, and “High Performance” based on an enhanced Xcellis Application Director with additional processing cores and expanded memory. The integrated solution can easily scale with additional appliances as the environment grows. Quantum will highlight the new solution at IBC2017, Sept. 1519, in Amsterdam (Stand 7.B27), showcasing the three initial on-premise cognitive engines and integrated access to cloud-based engines. The company will add support for additional on-premise engines over the course of the year and beyond. Nick Gold, Chief Revenue Officer, Chesapeake Systems “Our customers are extremely

excited about the prospect of using cognitive engines to mine their content repositories. Up until the availability of aiWARE for Xcellis, they haven’t seen a way to smoothly integrate AI processing with their on-premise content. Quantum’s approach solves the on-premise challenges while maintaining access to cloud-based engines and orchestration of everything for fantastic flexibility and options.” Keith Lissak, Senior Director, Media and Entertainment Solutions Marketing, Quantum “The integration of AI with on-premise storage enables organizations to apply cognitive analytics to video and audio content and generate much more robust metadata without the cost and hassle of moving their extensive media libraries to the cloud. This will be a game-changing capability for many media companies, as it opens up new realms of possibility for monetizing these libraries.”

It is assumed that the reason for these risks are fumes whose poisonous particles are deposited in protective clothing after fires and which can enter the bodies of emergency personnel through their skins or respiratory organs. “New findings on the dangers of contamination of the most varied kind lead both to uncertainty and, at the same time, rising demands concerning the nature and

implementation of care, control and repair,” says Daniel von Chamier, COO at the LHD Group Deutschland GmbH. The manufacturer of protective clothing will this year be presenting itself alongside the product brand LION in Hall 11 at A+A. “Basically the clothing should be cleaned more regularly but then it also has to be able to withstand this washing,” says Klaus Hawerkamp from the Heinsberg protective wear supplier S-Gard. Washability is extremely important - this is also confirmed by Austrian work and firewear manufacturer Texport presented at A+A 2017, like S-Gard, in Hall 3. “It is the whole package that affects the durability and waterproof seal of the seams just as it does repair suitability,” says Sales Manager Uwe Heinemann summing up. “We have, for a long time already, been intensively involved in emergency hygiene

– a topic the fire service will also have to increasingly deal with in the future so as to be able to test and evaluate the solutions offered.” On the other hand, there is also the issue of stricter European environmental legislation which might ban specific perund polyfluorised chemicals and thus the impregnated finishes that reduce the soiling of clothing at present. At the same time, soiling that penetrates the fibres making it rather hard to remove represents safety and health risks for the users.

Measures against Contamination There are different approaches to dealing with the issue of soiling and contamination. Post-deployment firefighters should already remove their outer jackets and trousers at the deployment site and ensure they first remove clothing and then air supply. If it was an intense, very demanding fire they should even shower at the deployment site to prevent any spread of contamination. Another measure is separating black and white clothing. This aims to keep soiled clothing from away from clean areas, such as deployment vehicles and fire stations. However, there are no binding rules and regulations about when and how often fire fighters should have their clothing cleaned. Despite all the logistical challenges

approaches are already emerging where members of fire brigades are offered a change of clothing already at the deployment site. The fire service in the Swedish city of Göteborg has developed another concept. Here the outer fabric of the protective clothing can be separated from the other layers so the firefighter enters the vehicle just wearing insulation lining and membrane. Furthermore, there is a tendency to purchase two sets of equipment per firefighter which meet different levels of protection. Since on most deployments technical assistance is required such as evacuating an accident site, removing oil or saving the oft cited cat up a tree, less insulating clothing with a flame-retardant outer fabric is usually enough. Berlin fire brigade is already using a two-level approach with heavy-duty equipment for firefighting and a lighter version for technical assistance.

Different Materials, Different Colours To prevent soiling and any potential accompanying contamination the dark coloured items are on the decline. “There is an increasing switch to pale colours so you can see any soiling,” explains Texport Sales Manager Uwe Heinemann. “Sand tones or gold are being sold more and more frequently in Germany,” echoes Klaus Hawerkamp from S-Gard. This is also due to the increasing

proportion of PBI® or Nomex® outer fabrics used. Nevertheless, classic navy is still accounting for the lion’s share of firewear, followed by red. Furthermore, workwear is also having an impact on protective clothing where increasingly two-colour jackets are offered. Orange is now practically out of the picture. Materials are a very important topic because they contribute considerably to performance and weight. They are becoming ever lighter and more functional. Furthermore, they should be highly tearresistant and visible thanks to high-vis materials. In view of the debate on soiling, in particular, they need to be easier to wash or withstand regular washing without losing any functionality. Layering plays an essential role. Moisture must be able to diffuse as quickly as possible to the outside. Because, along with thermal protection, effective moisture management has significant advantages for firefighters. If sweat is quickly transported outwards the risk of heat accumulation and thus the risk of burns is significantly reduced. This gives firefighters more time to react. Furthermore, there is a new generation of reflex stripes that meet EN 469 flame-retardant requirements and which can be washed at 60°C. Their greater breathability also makes for greater wear comfort.

HuPF Guideline no Longer Binding The German guideline for the manufacture and testing of firefighting garments HuPF (Herstellungs- und Prüfungsbeschreibung für eine universelle Feuerwehrschutzbekleidung) is one that is no longer binding on its own anymore in many German federal states. For this reason things have changed somewhat when it comes to design as there is more freedom now. “It has been conceded that padding and pockets reduce breathability. What’s more they add weight,” says S-GardSales Manager Klaus Hawerkamp. Generally, pockets are specially adapted to their function being smaller and adjustable for digital radio or other radio devices. According to Texport, patch pockets are among the trends so as not to reduce freedom of movement and wear comfort. “Every fire

service also has different requirements,” explains Uwe Heinemann. Flaps are becoming ever more popular – microphones, gas alarms and the like can also be attached to them and they themselves scarcely weigh anything. In addition to weight appearance is also gaining importance even though protection is and should remain the most important criterion. Demonstrating how fashionable and varied modern work and protective wear is today and that top design and safety are no longer mutually exclusive are the new A+A Fashion Shows in Hall 11.

Rescue 4.0 A special focus at A+A 2017 is the topic of “Zukunft der Arbeit – Arbeiten 4.0” (Future of Work – Work 4.0) that is impressively staged on the new A+A Highlight Route. Across all halls exhibitors showcase highlights on “Smart PPE”, “Digitalisation of Work” and “Digital Applications and Solutions”. With this new concept A+A offers a stage for the future topic of digitalisation which is already taken for granted in many spheres of life. For instance, also in fire protection where networked data will be indispensable in future. This starts with deployment preparation (drawing up of hazard prevention plans), continues with deployment simulation for training purposes as showcased by Mobilion and Haagen for instance at the “Themepark Fire Protection/ Emergency

Management” at the stand of the Industrial Fire Protection Association of Germany (Werkfeuerwehrverband Deutschland e.V. – WFVD) in Hall 6 through to deployment at the incident site. Currently it is primarily small changes like the electronic control, for instance of aerial ladders or drones that are already in everyday use. Nevertheless, when it comes to smart apparel despite many varied projects and feasibility studies also promoted at EU level like Sensprocloths, Smart@Fire or Profitex, no prototype has ever made it to serial production. Devices can convey vital parameters and fire deployment data but they must also be manageable to use. There are still many unanswered questions: How do devices like this function in cellars? Are they washable? Ultimately, how reliable are wearables in everyday use? “We have noticed that many of the previously developed systems that we have integrated into our suits have proven inconvenient and too high-maintenance or impractical in real life. Nevertheless, we have to forge ahead with research with our partners to be able to offer customers a well thought out, safe and practicable system as soon as possible,” explains Christian Pannier, Product Manager at LHD Group Deutschland GmbH in charge of the LION brand. Last year S-Gard in Heinsberg was even awarded the research innovation seal “Innovativ durch Forschung”

There are a number of challenges that lie ahead in the future. Until a few years ago protective wear for firefighters was regulated down the last detail while now we are spoilt for choice. “20 years ago there were three or four different outer fabrics for protective firewear while now there are over 20,” says Pannier. This means accompanying advice is increasingly important. When purchasing you basically need a risk analysis stating which risks are present, how often firefighters are exposed to them and what the consequences for the wearers are. “All purchasing agents need to study the materials in detail and gather comprehensive information to be able to make the best decision for the protection of their duty officers,” recommends Uwe Heinemann from Texport. “It is only in this way that we can make the best decision.” However, those responsible can also protect their colleagues by really getting to grips with clothing hygiene. For this there are two A+A exhibitors with relevant ranges. Just recently the LHD Group Deutschland opened another LION TotalCare® Center specialised in the washing and care of firefighters’ clothing. This service in existence since 1989 is therefore now offered in over ten TotalCare® Centers worldwide. Texport has also launched a similar service called Clean & Care which has now firmly established itself on the market. Alternative washing procedures like CO2 washing are still in development. The Belgian Textile Research Centre Centexbel, for instance, found in a study that CO2 washing reliably and environmentally washes out aromatic carbons, that have been proven to be carcinogenic, as well as carbon-containing substances (PACs) and ones that easily evaporate (VOCs) as well as oil. Using this method significantly better results are achieved than with conventional 60° washing. However, until this is established firefighters are best protected by regularly washing their clothing in the conventional fashion.

How Clean is the Air in your Industrial Premises?

e breathe every four seconds, around 22,000 breaths a day. In the highly-polluted areas of inner cities, we breathe in more than 25 million particles with each breath. We inhale fine dust, viruses and bacteria, exposing us to countless other health-endangering particles and gases. For many of those working in any of the industrial and manufacturing units face serious health threats from a range of pollutants including oil mist, dust, and fumes containing manganese, lead, hexavalent chromium, and other toxic elements. The quality of indoor air inside offices, schools, and other workplaces is important not only for workers’ comfort but also for their health. Poor indoor air quality (IAQ) has been tied to symptoms like headaches, fatigue, trouble concentrating, and irritation of the eyes, nose, throat and lungs. In addition, some exposures, such as asbestos and radon, do not cause immediate symptoms but can lead to cancer after many years. Many countries have their own Ambient Air Quality Standards prescribed for their territories, India too has its National Ambient Air Quality Standards set by Central Pollution Control Board. But when it comes to industries, lack of clear guidelines and implementation framework has put most of India’s workforce under the increasing threat of disease caused by poor IAQ.

Air Quality: Sources and Effects Air pollution has many natural and manmade sources but consists mostly of solid particulate matter generally recognized by the size of pollutants. The range of pollutants vary from less than one micron, PM1 to larger pollutants with a size ranging up to 10 microns known as PM10. The greatest risk to human health from air pollution is related to breathing PM1, the

smallest and most dangerous particulate matter, which by number is predominantly comprised of nano and ultrafine particles. Most of the PM1 particles originate from combustion and various sensitive manufacturing processes. These invisible elements can constrict the airways of the lungs, increase the chance of developing asthma, and unleash free radicals to catalyze carcinogens in the bloodstream

and activate cellular processes that may lead to cancer or cardiovascular disease. Particles from natural sources tend to be at the larger end of the size spectrum and include pollen, forest fires, volcanoes, and windblown soil and sand. A majority of air quality problems emerging from metalworking operations and allied industries can be traced to weld smoke and fumes, which vary in their toxicity based on the type of welding process, base metal, filler metals used, and welding rod composition. Of all the fumes generated in welding, 85 percent comes from the electrode, with particle sizes ranging from 0.1 to 5.0 microns.

Improving Air Quality: Filtration to the rescue Thanks to the efforts of the World Health Organization (WHO) and other public health agencies, there is a greater awareness about the negative effects of air pollution. Focus on workplace health and safety has increased over recent decades. Superior IAQ helps not only helps companies attract and retain employees but also keeps the keeps the health and productivity levels at a high. Better IAQ can also considerable impact an organization efforts to achieve sustainability targets through responsible manufacturing.

Most industrial plants and manufacturing units today incorporate air handling units to distribute a blend of outdoor air and recirculated indoor air. Still, there are a lot of industrial units without any HVAC infrastructure. This lets uncontrolled quantities of outdoor air enter buildings by infiltration through windows, doors, and gaps in the exterior construction leading to increasing contamination of outdoor pollutants in indoor air. In a bid to cut down on the cost, many industries also incorporate HVAC designs that include units that introduce 100% outdoor air or that simply transfer air within the building. If polluted outdoor air is not effectively filtered and cleaned before the ventilation system distributes it, the indoor air will contain a large quantity of the harmful particulates that find their way into people’s respiratory tract and circulation system. These particles substances can also combine with those already present indoors and become more aggressive and harmful. Most air purifiers have monitors that show levels of particulate matter coming down indoors by 50% to 90%. With quality air filters in air handling units, a significant proportion of these air pollutants can be stopped, but it will be increasingly important to choose the right filter and efficiency for the targeted particulate

matter to protect human health. At Camfil, we are committed towards providing advanced clean air solutions in the most energy efficient way. We want people to breathe clean air with total confidence. As a world leader in air filtration, our mission is to supply worldclass filters to protect people and processes from poor quality air and make clean air a birth right for everyone. However, the Indian statutory framework on air has no clear demands on data generation either at the level of measurement or scientific research to determine the effects of pollution. India’s primary regulatory approach licenses specified industrial activities to pollute within specified standards. Regulation is therefore not pitched at the level of ambient air quality but kicks in when an individual polluter violates the terms of his license. To address the challenges of standardization and efficiency, ISO global standard (ISO 16890) has been introduced across the world. This will make it easier for industrial and individual buyers to distinctly identify and make informed choices based on their requirements. Camfil advocates the need for the government to bring in stringent policy on air pollution control in India. We urge the influencers to stay committed in making clean air a human right.

THE MAJOR POLLUTION CULPRITS – Your workers might be breathing these harmful pollutants

Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is a toxic gas. Sources: combustion processes. Effects: Symptoms of bronchitis in asthmatic children, reduced lung function growth in cities. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) Sources: fossil fuel combustion at power plants and other industrial facilities. Effects: Constriction of the airways and increased asthma, headaches and general discomfort. Heavy metals Arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury and nickel. Sources: combustion plants, incinerators and industrial processes.

The sensor within or attached to the objects are connected to the internet via wired or wireless internet connections. Various local area connections for these sensors include ZigBee, Bluetooth, RFID, Wi-Fi, etc. These sensors also use wide area networks including GSM, GPRS, 3G, 4G, etc. IoT architecture consists of the following layers The lowest layer consists of the hardware community, which again is divided into two groups of devices. The first groups of devices are constrained devices which have limited resources and features and hence rely on other devices to perform some processes. The external devices are smart gateways which possess a threat to expose the functionality to the clients. The second groups of devices are unconstrained devices which have enough features and resources that are necessary to run processes. Even if the unconstrained devices lack the necessary feature to perform a particular process, they have middleware components that provide the functionalities directly to the client via a platform or third party cloud service. The next layer or the middle layer in the architecture of the Internet of Things is the software layer, which supports an open source platform. The task of this layer is to provide a mechanism to define and setup the functionalities of the hardware like sensors, actuators, process handling etc. and also organize them I order to build the services (either simple or complex).The software level also has the task of implementing necessary protocols, connectivity drivers

SECURITY

Cloud Integrated Video-IOT and Video surveillance in a unified framework By Tuhin Bose, CTO & VP, Videonetics Technology

I

n a stride to enhance the security of residential or commercial premises, IP Camera based video surveillance has garnered much attention over the past few years. Right from home and small premises (clubbed as SOHO - Small Office/Home Office) to big enterprises, everyone is trying to include it as a safety parameter. The true potential of Video Surveillance, however lies with Video Analytics applications. With such an application at hand, one can further use the video footage grabbed by IP cameras to extract useful and actionable information. Intrusion detection, facial recognition, crowd formation detection, traffic congestion and vehicle over-speeding detection have been made easier using this technology. It is perfectly feasible to host both video surveillance systems and video analytics applications in private data centers, private or public cloud under different architectures like IaaS, PaaS and giving away several myriad services to users like standalone VMS plus VA services or providing Video as a Service (VaaS). With new advancements, you can now stream live videos, store the data in a cloud hosted storage and even replay the recorded videos from any given timestamp. In a nutshell, all the cameras that may be installed in

geographically sparse locations feed the data into the cloud hosted servers through LAN or firmware-upgraded cameras. Internet of Things (acronymed as IoT) is the new rage due to the possibilities it offers in the domain of security, surveillance and situational awareness. Such devices are paired with several types of sensors (temperature, humidity, air pollution etc.) to detect and feed the relevant data. IoT has shown excellent operation in waste management, energy management, etc. as well. Notably, they also prove to be better and cost effective compared to their counterparts in the video analytics domain in certain scenarios, especially if situational awareness is the primary objective. One should, however keep in mind that any event triggered by a sensor reflects just the textual data, which is why; people tend to store and manage the sensor-triggered events separately along with the video feed of the surveillance systems.

V-IoT Box: Videonetics made a breakthrough when they successfully coupled IoT devices with video management systems along with video analytics applications under the same framework. Talking in a simpler language, Videonetics enabled users to deploy standalone VMS, VMS over Cloud, Camera edge analytics, on-premise server based Video analytics, cloud hosted VMS and Video analytics offer-

ings in a single framework. The framework has many other merits as well. Fore mostly, it empowers you with camera-to-cloud services either using VN-enabled Cameras or embedding the Software in any edge devices like a router, STB, or in the absence of that, in a dedicated small foot-print hardware box for any standard IP cameras. The hardware box may be small, but if ample of computing power and memory is available, the same box is also proficient enough to generate video analytics events after analyzing the video. Fig 1.0 makes it easy to comprehend the entire architecture. All the video data is fed into the ‘Media Handler’ while the sensor trigger receives data from the IoT devices to send that further to ‘Event Composer’. ‘The Media Handler’ makes the data available for streaming (video and audio) while also sending it to ‘Video analytics Apps’. ‘Media Handler’ generates a video clip along with the time stamp. This data is sent to V-Iot box that can be remotely accessed by a user for streaming live video or watching archived videos. It should be noted that the archived video stream can be configured to be sent to cloud hosted storage automatically. All the data received in ‘Sensor Trigger Handler’ and Video Analytics Apps is consumed by the ‘Event Composer’ that correlate and aggregate the data, and send that to a cloud hosted or data center hosted server for indexing and storing. From there, it is then

establishments located at geographically diverse locations. The Videonetics Video Management System can be installed at all the establishments to offer the services on a local level. It is pre-integrated with Video analytics framework enabling a user to receive alerts on detection of events locally. Now, the Cloud Framework by Videonetics allows a user to integrate all those locally installed VMS systems and view the systems over the web.

SDK: With the help of a web service based API, the existing IoT boxes can be integrated with Videonetics V-IoT solution in both Linux and Windows OS. VN-enabled Cameras: For a Videonetics software component to work in a streamlined fashion, one needs an IP camera that supports it. The process henceforth is simple. A user just need to install the software and the camera becomes cloud enabled. This combined system can then be used to: • View live feed of the camera through the web • Record the stream in cloud storage and replay if and as required. • Configure video analytics app for the camera. One can receive instant alerts on web or portable devices as the cloud-hosted system generate and store them. The entire process is quite simple. The

camera generates events and they are sent to the Videonetics Cloud Agent to be further transferred to Videonetics Cloud hosted (data center hosted) server in an Event container. It is stored there and indexed in the database. One may opt to add sensors to the camera in/out ports and receive the sensor-triggered events as well. Remember that the Event container in that case will also contain pictures or video fetched from the camera.

Cloud Gateway: This software component, when installed in any standard hardware (Router, STB or dedicated hardware meant for this purpose only), allows an ordinary IP camera to be cloud enabled and receive video feed. If one has the computing power, they can connect any number of IP cameras with the hardware. One can use the system to: • Stream the camera view live through the web

• Record the stream in cloud storage and replay if and as required. • Configure video analytics app for the camera to run in the hardware itself. The events thus generated by the system will be transferred to the cloud. • Configure video analytics app for the camera. One can receive instant alerts on web or portable devices as the cloud-hosted system generate and store them.

Video Management System: Any enterprise may be spread to multiple

Summary: It can be fairly concluded that the Videonetics Cloud Framework is deep rooted as far as security and surveillance is concerned. Right from a single camera application to connecting thousands and providing for small home to corporate giants, the Cloud Framework is the one stop solution with a higher degree of flexibility and cost-effectiveness, all thanks to the several combination possibilities of Videonetics VMS, V-IoT, Gateway box and VN-enabled cameras.

H & S Challenges & Solutions for Construction Industries in India

Mr. Shaukat Haque Manager Training, (Proprietor), Bharat Safety Solution, Thane Diploma in Mechanical Engineering, Advanced Diploma Industrial safety 30 years of Industrial and Training experience Worked as Safety Head in High Rise Building Constructions in Mumbai

1. INTRODUCTION This short note is a humble attempt to share personal experience to health and safety professional in particular and project staff in general. The attitude of project team, safety operators and workers has been incorporated to learn the problems and carve out the practical solutions. This in an extract of ten years journey as being health and safety heads in various construction organsiation. Construction industry in India has come of age in recent times. This is a long tortuous journey starting from 80’s till date. In the year 2000 when ILO declared construction industry as hazardous place of work hence the world took it seriously and apart from engineering aspects, health, safety and environment became question of great concern.

2. IMMEDIATE CAUSES OF ACCIDENT Fall from height or into pits, manholes etc.

Major concern at construction site is being work at height. This involves use of ladders, scaffoldings, catch platforms, temporarily raised structures like shuttering, form work and so on. As workers are ill trained and under deadline pressure, there are always a chance to take shortcuts. Besides not having PFAS (personal fall arrest system), somehow work is performed like shuttering, plastering, brick work, façade fixing, painting etc. the obvious risk of personal fall and object falling turns into real accidents Electrocution Large use of electrically operated power tools such as drilling machine, grinders, welding machine, bar cutting and bar bending machines etc. are risky jobs. Lack of competence on users’ part, non maintenance of power tools, use of defective tools are recipe for danger. Electric burn, nerve damage, death are common sight. Sometimes a small fire caused by short circuit becomes major fire leading to personal injuries and damage to properties as well. Common cause of electrical accidents are non inspection and non maintenance of electrical power tools and systems. Also incompetent users are dangerous people. Hit by heavy vehicles/machineries Operation of heavy vehicles and machineries such as excavators, fork lift trucks, cranes, back hoes, dozers etc. are no doubt very risky job. Accidents and injuries are more likely whenever these heavy equipment come into action. Unauthorised drivers and operators and absence of flag man, poor road conditions, and unplanned jobs are major cause of serious accidents and sometimes fatality is also experience.

Crushed, trapped, cut etc. during heavy machinery operation Non movement operation of vehicles and heavy machineries such as loading unloading, securing, parking, and doing maintenance are the occasions that have high risk of crushed by, trapped under, cut by and other mechanical hazards. Often serious injuries occur due to silly reasons in this type of job.

3. ROOT CAUSE OF ACCIDENTS Health and safety considered as non productive activity Usually in India professional hold the opinion that health and safety is not their core competency. Priority is given to Projects and production. When accidents happen people start thinking of implementing good health and safety standard, complying with legislation. When things get settled health and safety goes to cold storage. Again the next accidents brings forth the need to do. The vicious cycle continues. Budget constrain is also one of the culprits. Lack of management commitment As discussed above the commitment to health and safety standard never develop. Not those good organisations don’t do the things but negligence prevails at large scale. Top management must think that health and safety is their moral, social and legal duty. Once this goes in mind things start improving. There are many organisations having completed 5 to 20 millions accident free hours and have been awarded by National Safety Council(NSC) Making haste (to complete project in time so compromising EHS) It is due to progress report to top management don’t allow to PMs (project SEPTEMBER 2017 | INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW

managers) to spare time and mind for health and safety issues. To stick to dictum, everybody at construction site is in hurry. Not taking work permits for high risk jobs, use of heavy machines by unauthorised person, employing incompetent technicians are some miss deeds one can observe. Equipment defective, not inspected or not maintained Again, shortage of manpower, fast pace and reporting to client and top management is the cause. Equipment are not inspected, defects are not attended, maintenance is not done thinking that it will consume time and money. Remember that use of defective equipment is main cause of accident. Incompetent operators and technicians Another reason for accidents. Urgency forces PM to employ people having less competencies. You will find tower crane operator driving excavator, rigger operating cranes, helpers driving dumpers, pump operator acting as electrician. Untrained workers for high risk activities Large number of labourers at construction sites are unskilled or semi skilled. This is most serious affair. PM pressing for time find it difficult to delay the jobs so anybody will be put on any job. These poor people are the first victim of the impending incidents. Lack of supervision by competent person Safety staff is sometimes used for HR activities. This fellow is considered as not doing his job so he is put on security gate to count number of debris dumper going out and number of Transit mixers coming in. Bored and exploited the safety person thinks that never mine, salary comes into the account and accidents can be managed by HR people, so keep mum and do the assigned task.

4. IMPROVED AVENUES OF EHS The picture is not totally bleak, due to advent of MNCs in construction field came with it good safety standards. MNC clients insists on good safety standards from contractors at the time of bidding. Health and safety data is submitted, safety organisation chart is demanded. Ultimately contractors improve and try to improve at construction sites. Some of the glad tidings are mentioned in the following lines:

Provision of Safety park This park displays attractive posters, signs, PPEs, and instructions in multi languages. Mannequin wearing PPEs is a very good attempt to teach and motivate. Pictographic checklists of work equipment & machineries Easy to use pictographic check lists for scaffoldings, heavy machines, and plants have been generated by leading construction companies and are being used almost all places in India.

Compulsory Induction training Almost all sites have adopted this method. Every incomer is given safety induction training. So everybody working on site is aware that he or she has to follow health and safety rules. This is good phenomenon for the EHS staff and the entire project team.

Taking work permit for high risk jobs All high risk jobs (hot work, work at height, electrical job, excavation etc.) are carried out under valid work permit system. Permits are periodically audit to enhance its benefits,

Audio visual use of training materials Budget allocation is done to ease out the task and you will find good induction rooms, medical rooms, display screens and audio visual training aid much to the happiness of safety supervisors and officers.

Zone wise Appointment of safety supervisors Sites are divided into zones and each zone has at least one safety supervisor taking care of health and safety need on daily basis. Apart from these avenues there are some other attempts to improve health and safety conditions at construction site such as Regular health checks, doctor’s visits,


TECH UPDATE

Provision of PPE’s, Welfare facilities in labour camps.

5. AREAS OF IMPROVEMENT Management commitment (changed perception) As discussed that above the thing starts from top. Unless top management is not prepared to perform, bottom line will not improve. Management has to change perception that good health and safety standard will not only improve working conditions, speed up the project but also reduce accident cost in the end. Appointing capable safety officers Appointing competent people at all levels is another formula. Only incompetent person do mistakes and causes accidents. Safety trained technicians Technicians and labourers face the problem first because they are ever present and exposed to hazards and risks. They can be locally trained and made safety competent. Legal compliance Law is for betterment. It doesn’t punish every time, it guides, motivates and keep an eye on dangerous activities. Only law breaker is brought to book and corrected if proved guilty. Scheduled maintenance, testing, recording of equipment This will help remove defective equip out of service and help users to work safely without having feeling that they are safe and secure. Scheduled Inspection and audit Critical examinations and checking keeps the torch burning. Wrongs are correct, good is appreciated and improvement is made possible in future. Safety culture (by motivation, changed behaviour and perception) Culture is product of individual and group

attitude, bahaviour, perception ideas and skills. Good health and safety culture takes time to build up but once built it serves for ages.

and safety culture at work place by the PM Management should ask what is the health and safety performance and link it to PM’s appraisal policy

6. REMEDY

Workers as safety supervisors new concept (Safety Head) Make good workers safety supervisor of his are issue him a card then see how actively he will do his job. Workers feel proud when they are issue certificates and recognitions. This is low cost but high end result scheme that can be achieved by safety managers at their site.

Developing concern (Top Managers) Top management are also human beings with their faults, whims and fancies and good human feelings. Nobody becomes happy when someone lose life while working at the site. Question is who will bell the cat. If health and safety agenda gets first place in meetings, and no doubt, concern will develop. Calculating cost of accidents and losses in long run will surely improve the situation. Linking appraisal with HSE performance (Top Managers) Policy to be drafted that employees duty should include safety performance too. Then see how people are on toes to complete Key Performance Indicators (KPI) It shall become management tool to improve health and safety standards. Competency of safety officers (HR) HR must ensure the competency of the entrants and stick to the rule that the person is safety aware at the time of getting into organsiation fold. When this policy is made aware to candidates, they will start doing safety qualifications for getting fast jobs. Trained technicians/workers (HR) Once again HR plays important role in employing safety aware and competent technicians. The result is same as above. Motivation technique (PM) Motivated employees do safely and fast. Award schemes, appreciation letters, motivational programmes definitely help improve health and safety standards at work site. Developing Safety culture (PM) Efforts to be made to develop good health

Contractors’ safety committee new concept (Safety Head) Another trick is to make safety committee of contractors, give them importance, arrange their meetings and show them that they are important. They will do their job well and good beyond your imagination. Scheduled maintenance, testing, recording of equipment (PM) One dedicated safety person if possible to be employed for this task. Spend some and get more is the logic.

7. CONCLUSION No effort goes in vain. People are ready to learn and improve. You take step people follow and things improve. Management shows concern people acknowledge it and support. It is normal human tendency. Saying that people don’t improve is accepting defeat before the war starts or you are incompetent or it is mistake of HR to offer you a job for the position you are in today. As said things improve on top first then goodness trickles down. The top management must feel its moral and social and human responsibility to earn in honest way by running the business. Otherwise what is the use of announcing we are the world’s largest group and people are dying at your site. Its great irony. No business in long run survives with double standard.
