Handheld Power Saws Used to Cut Fiber‑Cement Board

This fact sheet describes dust controls to minimize the amount of airborne dust when using handheld circular saws with a blade diameter of 8 inches or less to cut fiber-cement board as listed in Table 1 of the Respirable Crystalline Silica Standard for Construction, 29 CFR 1926.1153.
