What do I do when blocking egress/walkways with duct sections?

Field Basics, Safety & AccessFoundation safety starter — site rules and training still control

Keep egress, walkways, doors, stairs, ladders, panels, and fire equipment clear while staging duct.

Open in Field Rescue Open category

Field checklist

Stage duct to one side of travel paths.
Leave doors, exits, stairs, panels, and extinguishers accessible.
Use cones/tape if material creates a temporary pinch point.
Tell the foreman if there is no safe staging area.
Move material before it becomes normal to step over it.

Ask foreman

Where do you want this staged so egress and access stay clear?

Do not

Do not block exits, walkways, ladders, electrical panels, or fire equipment with duct.

Why it matters

Bad staging turns other trades and emergency routes into obstacles.
