A wide variety of health and safety hazards exist in schools and colleges of art and theater due to a lack of formal health and safety programs and a failure to include health and safety concerns during planning of new facilities and renovation of existing facilities. This chapter discusses the elements of a health and safety program as well as safety-related structural and equipment needs that should be in the plans for any school of art or theater. These elements include curriculum content, ventilation, storage, housekeeping, waste management, fire and explosion prevention, machine and tool safety, electrical safety, noise, heat stress, and life safety and emergency procedures and equipment. Ideally, these elements should be incorporated into the plans for any new facilities, but ongoing programs can also benefit from a review of existing health and safety programs.
由于缺乏正式的健康与安全计划,且在新设施规划和现有设施翻新过程中未考虑健康与安全问题,艺术院校和戏剧院校存在各种各样的健康与安全隐患。本章讨论了健康与安全计划的要素,以及艺术或戏剧院校的规划中应包含的与安全相关的结构和设备要求。这些要素包括课程内容、通风、储存、内务管理、废物管理、防火防爆、机器和工具安全、电气安全、噪音、热应激以及生命安全和应急程序与设备。理想情况下,这些要素应纳入任何新设施的规划中,但现行计划也可从对现有健康与安全计划的审查中受益。
