Additional information
Swallowing small amounts of dry concrete in powder form is unlikely to cause any significant reaction. Larger amounts can cause irritation of the stomach and intestines. Other hazards: • Cutting, drilling or hammering of hardened/dry concrete can create dust. Hardened concrete may be high in silica and can cause respiratory problems, particularly when it is being drilled or cut or sawn if precautionary measures are not taken. Respirable crystalline silica has been associated with the lung disease, Silicosis
