I would love to see a similar demonstration on determining minor to moderate mechanical hazards; pinch, crush, shear, etc. How to measure force, determine contact area, calculating contact pressure, and ultimately determining the "Ouch Factor". What protective measure can be use in different cases to "lower the risk to an accessible level"? How bad of boo boo are you willing to let your Users have access too? At some point, someone is going to have to stick their finger in there and see how bad it hurts. I'm thinking about using one of those pain charts they use at the hospital.
I'd go to a demonstration like that.

I did the Electric Shock for Dummies pitch last year and had a great group attending. I'm willing to do it again this year, building on last years session with some improvements. :>) br, Pete Peter E Perkins, PE Principal Product Safety Engineer PO Box 23427 Tigard, ORe 97281-3427 503/452-1201 fone/fax [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> From: John Allen [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, August 23, 2015 4:40 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [PSES] PSES Symposium 2016 - Compliance 101 Track Hi guys, I'm heading up the Compliance 101 Track for the 2016 Symposium in Anaheim, CA. The Track was very well received last year and I'm hoping to do it again this year with 6 or 7 presentations on high level compliance issues, tips and teachings. The audience for the Track are those new to compliance and designers who don't have the time to get their hands around compliance. Believe it or not, some people that attended the Track last year still thought UL was a government agency. I believe we have a huge opportunity to grow the Symposium, and membership in the PSES by teaching newbies and designers how to do what we do. For the consultants out there I know this sounds like you're giving away free consulting, and you are, but as one of you I can say it is worth it - a knowledgeable client is our best client!! The Symposium is not until May 16-18, 2016 but we need to get organized as the TPC is already meeting monthly. Please consider doing a presentation and reach out to me if your interested. If you'd like to see the Compliance 101 presentations to get a flavor for what they looked like let me know. Not 100% sure if I can pass them on if you didn't attend the symposium, but can certainly pass along something similar to the one I did.
