Spray-on concrete driveway coating involves resurfacing existing concrete with cementitious overlays, colour oxides and acrylic sealers applied via hopper gun. This work triggers WHS Regulation 2011 obligations around hazardous chemicals, airborne contaminants and slip hazards, requiring a documented SWMS before commencement under the principal contractor's WHS management plan.
Hazards identified
3 hazards covered, sorted by priority.
Respiratory irritation, dermatitis, chemical sensitisation
Falls causing fractures and soft-tissue injury
Eye injury, lung damage from respirable crystalline silica
Control measures
Hierarchy-of-controls order: elimination → substitution → isolation → engineering → administrative → PPE.
- 1Wear P2 respirator, nitrile gloves and eye protection; review SDS before mixing or spraying.
- 2Barricade wet coating zones with signage; restrict access until sealer fully cures.
- 3Inspect hopper gun, hoses and compressor daily; depressurise before clearing blockages or disconnecting.
Applicable Codes of Practice
Sealers, solvents and oxides require SDS, labelling and exposure controls.
Respirator selection for solvent vapours and silica dust exposure.
High-Risk Construction Work triggered
Not applicable — listed for completeness only where heat-cure accelerators used in confined driveways.
Spray coating itself is not HRCW; chemical and slip risks managed under Chapter 7.
SWMS still required where principal contractor classifies site as construction work.
