What do I do when not asking before drilling into deck/concrete?

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

Do not drill deck or concrete until the location, depth, embed, scan/approval, and approved detail are verified.

Open in Field Rescue Open category

Field checklist

Find the approved anchor/detail.
Confirm location and edge distance with layout/control lines.
Check for post-tension, rebar, deck flute, embedded conduit, or no-drill zones.
Use the approved bit/anchor/depth.
Ask before drilling if anything is unclear.

Ask foreman

Is this location approved to drill, and do we need scan/anchor/detail verification first?

Do not

Do not drill structural deck, slab, beam, or concrete just because the hanger line needs a hole.

Why it matters

A wrong hole can hit structure, utilities, post-tension, or create a failed support.
