School grounds should be inspected
for potential hazards such as: • Verandah poles outside doorways, in thoroughfares or in situations where students are unlikely to see them, especially while running; • Steps and changes in level which are poorly proportioned, difficult to see or lack handrails; • Fencing, gates and railings which students climb and which have structural problems, sharp protrusions, splinters or other hazards; • Trip hazards at ground level — protruding drainage pit covers,
irregular paving, cracks or tree roots in thoroughfares, broken off post or other remnants of old structures; • Loose gravely
surfaces on slopes and where students run; • Slippery patches which may stay damp in winter; • Rocks which students can fall onto or throw around; • Embankments which students can slip down or which have protruding sharp objects; • Blind corners in busy areas; taps and hoses which are positioned where students play or walk; window glass at low levels through which students could fall; • Holes, cracks or exposed irrigation fixtures in ovals; • Trees or shrubs with poisonous parts, sharp spikes or thorns or branches at eye level; • Splinters and deteriorating timbers in seats, retaining edges and other wooden constructions; • sSeds or other areas with hazardous chemicals or machinery to which students have access; rubbish skips which students can climb into or around, or which place students at risk when trucks enter the school; • Areas within the site used
for car parking when students are present; and, • Sporting equipment such as goal posts or basketball rings which have structural or other design or maintenance problems.
The shocks default to the softest appropriate setting
for the vehicle's speed, and when the vehicle encounters an
irregular road
surface, they adjust instantaneously to control ride motions, preserve ride comfort, and maintain adhesion to the road.
The statement of P&B is somewhat odd as the high - latitude marine areas are almost continuously covered by low clouds; and
for the cloudless case the Fresnel formulas show that the light from a Sun low over the horizon is reflected almost as much by water than by the
irregular surface of the ice pack.
