Why this matters
Framing crews work with saws, nail guns, and heavy walls, often at the edge of an unfinished floor.
What to cover
- Brace every wall as it goes up.
- Protect edges and openings before you work.
- Follow nail gun safety rules.
- Use guards on saws and keep the work clamped.
- Share heavy lifts and clear the route.
- Keep the floor free of offcuts.
Ask the crew
- What's the bracing plan for this wall?
- Where's the edge protection?
- Who calls the lift?
One thing to do today
Check the bracing and edge protection on the current level.
