The topic of shelf stability in flammable storage cabinets came up on another lab safety e-mail list recently and a colleague requested information about other incidents related to this issue (see specific examples below). I thought that DCHAS members may wish to contribute to the list of incidents or, at a minimum, be reminded of the concern.

Hi All,

This subject came up in our Lab Safety CoP conference call the other day. I am consolidating info sent from Mark Bannister at Carnegie Melon and Courtney Stanion at Duke.

Anyone else had issues with these clips?

Mahalo!
Hans
