Book Description
Describes how to inspect and maintain a hardhat, one of the most important pieces of personal protective safety equipment. The hardhat has three parts: the shell, suspension system, and chinstrap. The shell, commonly made from a thermoplastic (such as polycarbonate), protects the wearer's head from penetration and impact injuries. The suspension system is designed to help absorb the impact of a blow to the wearer's head. The chinstrap is designed to keep the hardhat in place when it might otherwise shift or fall off. A simple hardhat field inspection involves compressing the shell from both sides about 1 inch with your hands and releasing the pressure without dropping the shell. The shell should return to its original shape quickly, exhibiting elasticity. If the shell being tested does not have as much elasticity as a new shell, or if the shell cracks, it should be replaced immediately.

The Hardhat Riot
Author: David Paul Kuhn
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN: 0190064714
Category : Anti-war demonstrations
Languages : en
Pages : 417
Book Description
"In May 1970, four days after Kent State, construction workers chased students through downtown Manhattan, beating scores of protesters bloody. As hardhats clashed with hippies, it soon became clear that something larger was underway- Democrats were at war with themselves. In The Hardhat Riot, David Paul Kuhn tells the fateful story of when the white working class first turned against liberalism, when Richard Nixon seized the breach, and America was forever changed. It was unthinkable one generation before: FDR's "forgotten man" siding with the party of Big Business and, ultimately, paving the way for presidencies from Ronald Reagan to Donald Trump. This is the story of the schism that tore liberalism apart. In this riveting story- rooted in meticulous research, including thousands of pages of never-before-seen records- we go back to a harrowing day that explains the politics of today. We experience an emerging class conflict between two newly polarized Americas,m and how it all boiled over on one brutal day, when the Democratic Part's future was bludgeoned by its past."--

Hardhats, Hippies, and Hawks
Author: Penny Lewis
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 0801467802
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
In the popular imagination, opposition to the Vietnam War was driven largely by college students and elite intellectuals, while supposedly reactionary blue-collar workers largely supported the war effort. In Hardhats, Hippies, and Hawks, Penny Lewis challenges this collective memory of class polarization. Through close readings of archival documents, popular culture, and media accounts at the time, she offers a more accurate "counter-memory" of a diverse, cross-class opposition to the war in Southeast Asia that included the labor movement, working-class students, soldiers and veterans, and Black Power, civil rights, and Chicano activists.Lewis investigates why the image of antiwar class division gained such traction at the time and has maintained such a hold on popular memory since. Identifying the primarily middle-class culture of the early antiwar movement, she traces how the class interests of its first organizers were reflected in its subsequent forms. The founding narratives of class-based political behavior, Lewis shows, were amplified in the late 1960s and early 1970s because the working class, in particular, lacked a voice in the public sphere, a problem that only increased in the subsequent period, even as working-class opposition to the war grew. By exposing as false the popular image of conservative workers and liberal elites separated by an unbridgeable gulf, Lewis suggests that shared political attitudes and actions are, in fact, possible between these two groups.
