2.3 materials handling code, and specification are?
Materials handling code refers to a set of guidelines or regulations that govern the safe and efficient handling of materials in various industries. These codes provide instructions on how to handle, store, transport, and dispose of materials properly to prevent accidents, injuries, and damage.
On the other hand, materials handling specifications detail the specific requirements and standards for the design, construction, and performance of materials handling equipment and systems. These specifications often include information on load capacity, dimensions, safety features, operating procedures, and maintenance guidelines.
Both materials handling codes and specifications aim to ensure the safe and effective movement and management of materials within a facility or workplace. Compliance with these codes and specifications is vital to maintain a safe working environment and prevent potential hazards.
