What is the maximum capacity of LP Gas allowed in a building undergoing minor renovations during normal work hours per worker?

The maximum capacity of LP Gas allowed in a building undergoing minor renovations during normal work hours per worker is 20 lb. This limit is established to ensure safety and minimize risks associated with using propane in a confined space or an area where work is being done. Having a controlled maximum capacity reduces the likelihood of accidents related to gas leaks, fire hazards, or explosions.

The 20 lb limit is considered sufficient to enable workers to carry out necessary tasks that may require the use of propane, while balancing safety considerations. This regulation helps in managing the overall quantity of flammable material present at any given time, which is crucial in maintaining a safe working environment, especially during activities that may stir up dust or involve the use of tools that could ignite gas.
