The website gives guidance on how to manage risks in the area based on the “assess, control and review model”. For each step, guidance is provided in form of short factsheets, brochures, links and a downloadable video: Uncontrolled cutting quickly produces very high levels of silica-containing dust, as is shown in a graph displayed in the video clip demonstrating how much silica is created when dry cutting. The graph shows a dramatic drop in the amount of silica-containing dust produced when using water suppression.
