HOT DOG: WHEN THE BACKYARD GRILL ATTACKS! | By Brian Tenace (MSME, PE, FMPC®) | I have to be honest – I sort of fear the back yard. There are gnats, neighbors with all manner of projectiles (frisbees, basketballs, volleyballs and even footballs have flown past me when all the neighborhood kids are running around!), and all the dust that my edger kicks up. But the social energy of such an active development is why I moved there. It seems a waste to eat dinner on nights like these. After all, a backyard barbecue is the highlight of summer.

But managing fire is one of the most dangerous things you can do in flip-flops. As a Mechanical Engineer and CFEI (Certified Fire and Explosion Investigator), I know a grill’s ease of use can make us forget that we are playing with fire right outside our most valuable possession – our home.
Damage from grills can happen fast...

THE SILENT SENTRY – A WORKING SMOKE DETECTOR | By Chad Jones, PE, CMSE, CFEI, CVFI | In conversations with both friends and people I have met through emergency calls with the fire department, I often observed that a lot of people never give a second thought to that little lifesaver mounted on the ceiling or the wall of their home. That little lifesaver is the smoke detector.

On average, a fire department responded to a fire somewhere in the United States every 23 seconds in 2024. A civilian was fatally injured in a fire every...

SHORT FLIGHT STAIRS, BIG HAZARD | By Ellen Szubski, M.S., Ph.D., CXLT, CPSI, AHFP | Stairs that contain three or fewer risers are considered short flight stairs according to safety standard ASTM F1637-21: Standard Practice for Safe Walking Surfaces. Single step transitions are also considered a short flight stair. Short fight stairs can be particularly hazardous for pedestrians due to the lack of visual cues signifying an elevation change. Unexpected changes in elevations can cause...

ICE, ICE, MAYBER...THE IMPACTS OF FREEZING WEATHER ON PLUMBING FIXTURES | By Brian Tenace (MSME, PE, FMPC®) | It’s that time of year again. Freezing rain, flurries of snow that don’t stick around, and mornings using a spatula to scrape dreaded ice off our windshields. I’ve lived in the south most of my life, and I know the combination of excitement and dread that my compatriots and I are likely to face during the winter months. Let’s face it, we may know how to cook pulled pork, but when it comes to freezing temperatures most of us don’t have much experience...

YOUR'RE JUST NOT MY TYPE - PART 1: GUARDS | By Bob Hickman, PE, CMSE | Selecting the best or most effective way to reduce or eliminate risk from a particular machine hazard is an extremely important process. It can mean the difference between someone going home and hugging their wife and children…to never going home again. The hazard control hierarchy (see figure below) is an available tool that illustrates what is known to be most effective to least effective when it comes to eliminating machine hazards or reducing the risk from those hazards to an acceptable level. Removing the hazard by designing it out is by far most effective. When this method can be used, the hazard is…

THE END OF DAYLIGHT-SAVING TIME LEADS TO MORE VEHICLE AND PEDESTRIAN COLLISIONS | By Ellen Szubski, M.S., Ph.D., CXLT, CPSI, AHFP | Daylight saving (DST) ends on November 2, 2025, and with it the clocks will “fall back” an hour. While it is nice to gain an hour of sleep, the end of daylight-saving time also comes with a increase of vehicle crashes, injuries, and pedestrian fatalities. This phenomenon prompts the question: What is so dangerous about being a pedestrian at night?

KEEP THE CHANGE | By Bob Hickman, PE, CMSE | I think it is safe to say that when we intentionally make changes to something, our goal is to make it better with respect to one or more metrics. Engineers working in manufacturing facilities are often asked to make changes to existing machines and processes for multiple reasons: to make it more productive, more reliable, more quiet, or possibly more safe. Typically, the ultimate goal is to make the machine better in one or more ways. Let’s take a closer look at the responsibilities and guidelines that design engineers and/or machine modifiers must be aware of and follow from a machine safety perspective…

THE MIDDLE CAR BLUES | By Mark Turner, ACTAR | Maybe you, a loved one, or even a client, have been in the unfortunate position, no pun intended, of being the creamy center in a three-car wreck. Odds are high that you have not, but those odds are also equally high that if you have, you will be shown as one of the contributors to the collision. In other words, the wreck will likely be your fault-and possibly the fault of the person behind you as well. Sure, the wreck could be the fault of the middle and third cars…

WATERPARK WOES | By Ellen Szubski, M.S., Ph.D., CXLT, CPSI, AHFP On July 12, 2024, a family entered the local water park to cool down. The family consisted of a mother and her two sons. While walking toward the wave pool area, the mother stepped off the wooden stairs and onto the surrounding concrete landing. As she did so, she slipped on a puddle of water that had accumulated on the surface. She fell backward, landing on her left side and ...
