Safety Guidelines for Experimentation, continued

Safety is the watchword when exhibiting at all STEM Exhibitions. Without exception, the highest standards of safety are required. The following are safety measures of particular concern.

Materials and construction must be durable. All moving parts must be firmly attached. Power-driven parts must be protected with guards.

Equipment that emits disruptive sound is to be operated only when judges request it. When hundreds of exhibits are on display, the sound reaches levels that distract the judges and exhibitors. Sound equipment not essential to the exhibit will not be permitted.

Safety Sheets
The Safety Sheet signed by the student and his/her sponsor must be included in the Research Summary. This sheet must specify any and all hazards and potential hazards. Any violations of safety rules may result in disqualification and removal from the exhibition. All questions regarding safety should be directed to the Chairperson of the Safety Committee.
