SMART Sheet Metal Workers Trade — Asbestos Exposure Overview

Sheet Metal Workers (SMART) are the U.S. trade responsible for fabricating and installing ductwork, air handlers, exhaust systems, and industrial ventilation across commercial buildings, hospitals, schools, industrial plants, and shipboard installations. Across the U.S. asbestos era, plaintiffs alleged that SMART members were exposed to airborne chrysotile fiber every time they cut, tapped, screwed, and sealed asbestos-cement duct board and every time they wrapped ductwork with asbestos-fabric expansion joints and duct-seal tape.

SMART members allegedly worked in daily contact with asbestos-cement air-handler drain pan insulation, asbestos-fabric ductwork lagging, asbestos-cement duct board, asbestos-cement drift eliminators on cooling towers, asbestos-lined duct wrap and dampers, and asbestos-fabric arc chute plates in HVAC control cabinet switchgear. Sheet Metal Locals working commercial-highrise HVAC install and refinery/chemical plant ductwork projects allegedly encountered sprayed asbestos fireproofing overhead and asbestos pipe insulation on adjacent process piping.
