Axis Capital Group Singapore Warning Never Disregard Equipment Safety

    Two latest safety occurrences drive home the gravity of disregarding safety hazards.The proprietor and a project manager for U.S. Sino Investment, Fremont, Calif., have been accused on charges of involuntary manslaughter after disregarding a stop-work order. After, an employee died in a trench cave-in.Asphalt Specialties, Pontiac, Mich., have been instructed to pay almost $1 million for improperly dismissing a foreman and two truck drivers who brought up concerns about exhausted and fatigued drivers. These acts are accurate and fair. The fired workers are given back pay damage settlements. However the family of the dead worker will never be able to return their dead loved one. Families, friends and others related with those upon whom justice is meted out are correspondingly concerned. The harm to individuals lengthens far yonder those directly concerned in any incident. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration reviews job sites, cites dangerous practices, charges fines for same, and commands projects shut down. There have been complaints about the oversight; however incidents like these outshine the troublesomeness. Construction workers or supervisors who disregard unsafe situations need to recognize their accountability for the security of others. If they consider wind speeds endanger safe lifts, tower crane operators have the authorization and responsibility to shut down a project. That's an extremely noticeable misfortune that is stopped. For trench cave-ins, they are all too usual, and news reports on the accident infrequently travel elsewhere the region in which it happens. Axis Capital Group, Singapore is a company that sells and rents construction capital equipment from cranes to excavators and related heavy construction equipment throughout Southeast Asia

    It's no shock that throughout the last years the economy has been an urging aspect affecting construction equipment ownership. Many contractors in Jakarta Indonesia and worldwide, have been repairing and holding onto machinery longer. A lot of contractors have transferred from purchasing new equipment to purchasing used. There are things that you should be looking for before buying a used machine if you ate in the used equipment buying or selling. There are signs that indicate when you should proceed with caution or what might be the red flag for the acquisition. Axis Capital Group, Singapore, a company that has been in the business, suggest construction contractors should observe for these warnings when examining and purchasing used equipment. A no-start engine or an engine that hard to start with lots of smoke is a no-no. If you can't test it you should never buy it even though the value is inexpensive except it's offered with a solid warranty, which can be unusual with used machinery. When you try, probabilities are you aren't acquainted with the type or model of the equipment, so do not hurry and be impulsive, and don't get scammed. You must have the vendor clarify all the controls, and make certain you test every single speed and movement. If it's certainly cold then anticipate some smoke. Watch out for leaking fluids under the machine. Make certain you examine end to end a backhoe loader and the cylinders. Likewise make certain to try all the hoses or arms. Pay attention with the coolant in the oil or oil in the coolant. This is an indication of an engine that will produce nothing except a misused time for you. Take note of anything seized. Likelihoods are if it was seized it wasn't well maintained. Check the welds on the backhoe, loader arms or buckets. Machinery continuously gets beaten up 'til it breaks, and then it's welded. A weld is not ever by means of conventional or as sturdy as the original steel, and above the firm mi

    Seldom do we see women in a construction site. Since the industry requires every aspect of manual labor, women, who are always considered physically weaker than men, seemed not fit for the job. Gender diversity is not usual in the workplace with women only occupying 11% of the whole construction employees' population, most of whom are employed for administrative task, working behind the desk and in-charge of data organization. Sexism is one of the main reasons for the low number of women hiring in construction industry. Axis Capital Group, a company which sells and rents quality equipment, states that both of their offices in Singapore and Jakarta, Indonesia has high attrition rate of female workers. Aside from family and risk issues that women need to adhere to as the reason for their resignation, some have complaints of worse treatment experience regarding the distribution of work or promotion opportunities. Today's bigger challenge is to educate the next generation that the industry is not one-gendered. Similar manual careers also have the same gender proportion problems. Analysts have concluded that the issue is one of the main reasons why there are also a low number of laborers and workers in the field. Construction industry is taking the warning of the lessening number of individuals interested to work in the sector at a more serious level. A person's gender is no longer important when hiring as long as he or she can do the job and has the qualification to do so. Moreover, the industry is already recognizing women attributes which can help in the betterment of the projects. With an industry struggling to find workers, the insights are worth reviewing for contractors. 1. Learning ability When it comes to training, women don't take anything for granted. In our culture it's sometimes assumed that all men have a certain mastery of mac

    Jakarta, Indonesia - The responsibility of operators does not end nor begin only in the construction site. Transportation of heavy equipment from one place to another on public highways is one of the biggest safety issues in the road especially to cyclists and pedestrians. Axis Capital Group, a company which sells and rents capital equipment from Singapore, has reported more 12 injuries and accidents in the last 16 years of operation. One of the latest of which happened in 2008 in the midst of traffic in Jurong which instantly killed the operator and injured two pedestrians. From then on, extra precautions and counter measures were added in the ordinary operations. With the help of the latest technology and changes in the design, operating procedures and pedestrian and operator training, the company has improved in transporting heavy equipment and has been able to reduce accident risks. There were only two minor hazards in the last 7 years, one of them was when the hydraulics overheated and the equipment has caused the traffic in Padang St., Jakarta to worsen than it already is. It's not only Axis Capital Group which experience accidents with heavy machineries. Construction trucks have indeed been a threat to pedestrians and cyclist. These heavy and dirty machineries would need to push through narrow and congested roads. Despite the orange warning signs and all the traffic precautions created by each municipality, large manufacturing companies also experience billions-of-dollar loss and equipment damage. To lessen the risk, large manufacturing companies have created different designs and operating systems. Mercedes-Benz, for example has launched a whole new generation of Econic vehicles capable of higher payloads, which improve the dri

    Regardless of conquering warnings of a crucial hit in sales throughout the economic recession in recent years, and even with having its job-site occurrence tested by the likes of mini-excavators, large skid steer loaders, and compact wheel loaders, the backhoe loader remains to tolerate as a multipurpose executor that can handle difficult trenching, loading, and lifting tasks; run serious attachments, front and rear; and very frequently get between assignments with no transport help. "With margins on job-site bids tight," says Jon Beckley, global product manager, backhoe loaders, Terex Construction, "contractors are relying more heavily than ever on backhoe loaders and, more specifically, on the attachments that enhance their productivity." *Hourly rate represents the monthly ownership costs divided by 176, plus operating cost. Unit prices used in this calculation: diesel fuel, $3.98 per gallon; mechanic's wage at $51.24 per hour; and money costs at 1.75 percent. Source: EquipmentWatch.com which holds true as per Axis Capital Group, Singapore, a company that sells and rents construction capital equipment from cranes to excavators and related heavy construction equipment throughout Southeast Asia such as KL Malaysia, Bangkok Thailand, Jakarta Indonesia and many more. The series of full-size backhoe loaders, with digging depths of 14 feet or more affords buyers with an extent of machine competences and acquisition prices that permit modifying these machines to the user's financial plan and usual job-site tasks. Reviews say all positive feedbacks from the customers. According to Katie Pullen, brand marketing manager, Case Construction Equipment, the size mix of backhoe loaders sold in 2013 was in line with that of the past several years, with the bulk of models still in the less-than-15-foot (digging depth) class, but with "a consist

    As we all know, forklifts are used to handle materials from one place to another and has been very useful in the daily activities of a construction project. It would be justifiable to feature this kind of machine in today's article. Just like any other capital equipment companies. Axis Capital Group has laid a huge emphasis on the use of fork lifts. This kind of machine of every available brand has been one of our top sellers in both of our offices in Singapore and Jakarta, Indonesia. The demand for this equipment spread across all over Asia. Handling has once been done by different kinds of equipment but with the creation of forklifts, it has made a great spur in the industry. The development, however, has taken years of review and research to truly evolve. In the middle of the 19th century through the early 20th century, the world has seen the development of lifting tools which had led to today's modern forklifts. The forerunner of the modern forklift was manually powered hoist that were used to lift loads. On 1919, some high lift trucks were built which raised their platforms several feet to provide a greater range of operation and permit handling the many different types of skids. From here it was only a short step to tiering. Warnings of demolition caused by wars did not hinder the development of this useful equipment. Post war standardization the same year eliminated the rest of the trouble, and has resulted in keeping the platform truck skid system useful right up to the present day. The year 1919 also saw the development of vertical lifting cantilever trucks as well as the introduction of forks and rams. The cantilever feat

Natural Disaster Need Special Designs Axis Capital Group Singapore

    Jakarta, Indonesia - Natural disasters happen everywhere in the world. Many cause property damage and loss of life. But researchers say the severity of their effects can be reduced if people take steps to prepare. Some natural disasters cannot be prevented. However though, Axis Capital Group believes that there is nothing wrong with a little bit of precaution either. Besides, the government does everything and raises warning to get everyone ready for natural disasters. Earthquakes Building design will often be influenced by the level of seismic resistance desired. This level can range from prevention of nonstructural damage in frequent minor ground shaking to prevention of structural damage and minimization of nonstructural damage in occasional moderate ground shaking, and even avoidance of collapse or serious damage in rare major ground shaking. Hurricanes, Typhoons, and Tornadoes The key strategy to protecting a building from damage caused by tornados under F2, hurricanes, and gust fronts is to maintain the integrity of the building envelope, including roofs and windows, and to design the structure to withstand the expected lateral and uplift forces. Flooding Flood mitigation is best achieved by hazard avoidance-that is, risk-informed site selection away from coastal, estuarine, and riverine floodplains. Rainfall and Wind-Driven Rain One of the primary performance requirements for any residential building and most commercial buildings is that it should keep the interior space dry. All roofs and walls must therefore shed rainwater, and design requirements are the same everywhere in this respect. For example, roof drainage design must minimize the possibility of ponding water, and existing buildings with flat roofs must be inspected to determine compliance with this requirement. Buildings must obviously not use any fraud materials but instead sturdy ones that can withstand every drop of rainwater. </

    expansion to Jakarta, Indonesia, we have been increasingly alert for issues regarding this mater. In fact, we have put warnings to our partner companies and clients as well. Wage theft is a rampant problem in the non-union construction industry and it drives down standards for all workers. It is the unlawful withholding of wages or benefits due to an employee. It can take many different forms - from illegal "deductions" from an employee's pay to outright not paying an employee at all.

    Japan has been overlooked by Indonesia as a partner. Instead, it chooses China, one of the most rivaled and sought-after country to be allied with. Many critics say that this is because of the worsening status of traffic in the archipelago' city, Jakarta. Jakarta, infamous for its traffic gridlock, recently won the dubious distinction as the city with the world's worst traffic jams, according to a study by the British industrial and automotive lubricants company Castrol. This once again highlights not only the Indonesian capital's infrastructural shortcomings but also the limited land and sea transport networks across the entire archipelago, as well as the frequent power outages that are the Achilles heel of the country's economy. Jakarta is nonetheless a developing city and one of the most advanced cities in the world. Businesses seem to flock this growing city and investors have pointed out a lot of potential. One of the companies which sells and rents capital equipment all over Asia is Axis Capital Group which is based in Singapore has expanded their services to Jakarta and is now partnering with government agencies, private institutions and non-profit organizations to help Indonesia's infrastructure. Critics though, say that Indonesia is in dire situation, a reason why they have reached out to China. Keen observers of the Indonesian economy believe that China is well placed to meet this demand for infrastructure as an investor, especially with the China-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) expected to launch by the end of this year, which will be dedicated to funding infrastructure development in the region. According to reviews, China is regarded as the most viable economic giant to support the development of infrastructure in Indonesia backed by the world's biggest foreign exchange reserves. Despite warnings of fraudulent acts in China and scams on their produ

    Worldwide Challenges Facing the Construction Industry,axis capital group construction equipment rentals in Jakarta, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur Worldwide Challenges Facing the Construction Industry Jakarta, Indonesia - Despite the industry's efforts and the emerging age of construction and industrialization in both developed and developing countries in the world, the issues and the challenges continue to rise and strive. Never will the industry or any other things, for that matter be without these challenges. There are some very serious challenges facing the construction industry that are motivating new approaches to how we design, build, operate, and maintain buildings and infrastructure. While these new technologies are designed to address challenges in the construction industry, I think that they are going to profoundly affect other sectors such as operations and maintenance, emergency planning, first response and urban planning. Axis Capital Group, a construction company based in Singapore and is distributing around South East Asia has listed some of the major hindrances a construction business should endure. Global Climate Change The construction industry is faced with the challenge to replace or renovate buildings to minimize environmental impact, for example, achieving carbon neutrality, and while at the same time yielding a respectable financial return on investment. The approach to green buildings requires new challenges to designing new buildings and renovating existing buildings. In Singapore, the government gave out a warning to building owners that by 2020, 80% of infrastructures in the country should be green and meet the standards.
