Hot Work: More than Welding, Cutting, and Burning

National Fire Protection Association

This can occur through direct application with flames or sparks from welding, cutting, and burning. Ignition can also occur through indirect application where heat is radiated through the air or conducted through metal surfaces to fuel sources nearby. If not monitored properly, the hot work could create enough heat to ignite that item.
