Appendix A to Part 1926 maps which general industry standards in 29 CFR part 1910 are incorporated into the construction standards in 29 CFR part 1926. The appendix lists, for specific 1926 sections and paragraphs, the corresponding 1910 provisions that apply; see Appendix A to Part 1926 (Designations for General Industry Standards Incorporated Into Body of Construction Standards).
Section 1926.20(c) incorporates the general industry provision in 1910.5(a). You can confirm that mapping in Appendix A to Part 1926.
Section 1926.32(g) incorporates 1910.12(b), so employers should follow that part of the general industry rule; see the incorporation listing in Appendix A to Part 1926.

Sections 1926.451(a)(22)–(24) map respectively to provisions in [1910.28]. Specifically, 1926.451(a)(22) maps to 1910.28(a)(15), 1926.451(a)(23) maps to 1910.28(a)(18), and 1926.451(a)(24) maps to 1910.28(a)(20). See these mappings in Appendix A to Part 1926.
Section 1926.1102 is the construction designation for 1910.1002; Appendix A lists 1926.1102 as the designation that incorporates [1910.1002] into the construction rules—see Appendix A to Part 1926.
Section 1926.1103 brings the general industry requirements of 1910.1003 into the construction standards; employers performing covered construction activities must follow the incorporated provisions as listed in Appendix A to Part 1926.

Section 1926.95 adopts the general industry PPE requirements in 1910.132. The mapping is listed in Appendix A to Part 1926.
Section 1926.96 maps to the general industry standard at 1910.136, bringing those head/foot protection rules into construction via Appendix A to Part 1926.
Sections of 1926.102 map to several parts of [1910.133]. For example, 1926.102(a)(6) maps to 1910.133(a)(2), 1926.102(a)(7) maps to 1910.133(a)(4), and 1926.102(a)(8) maps to 1910.133(a)(5). See the Appendix for the complete mapping: Appendix A to Part 1926.
Section 1926.153 maps several construction requirements to the boiler provisions in [1910.110]. For example, 1926.153(a)(3) maps to 1910.110(a)(4), and other paragraphs map to [1910.110(d)] provisions; see the detailed cross-references in Appendix A to Part 1926.
Asbestos remediation activities involving asbestos-containing building materials (ACBM) in demolition, repair, or cleanup work are covered by the construction asbestos standard, [1926.1101], not the general industry standard [1910.1001], when the described activities involve ACBM; see OSHA's interpretation: "Application of Asbestos Standards to repair and maintenance operations" and the Asbestos remediation protocols interpretation (Nov. 14, 2024).
Yes; 1910.147(f)(1) allows temporary removal of lockout/tagout devices and re-energization when necessary to test or position machines, but only if the employer follows the required sequence of protections (clear the machine, remove employees from the hazard area, remove devices as specified, energize for testing with employee protections, then de-energize and reapply controls) and documents the procedure; see OSHA's interpretation on the minor servicing exception and temporary re-energization procedures in the Minor servicing exception clarification (Oct. 21, 2024).
Yes; storage and on-site movement of pre-charged appliances containing a Category 1 flammable gas meet the definition of a "process" and, if the aggregate weight of the refrigerant on site in one location meets or exceeds 10,000 pounds, the operation is PSM-covered under [1910.119]; see OSHA's interpretation "PSM flammable gas aggregation" (June 6, 2024) at https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/standardinterpretations/2024-06-06 and the PSM standard 1910.119.
Yes; employers must ensure workers wear head protection when there is potential for head injury from falling objects, so crane operators who are exposed to overhead hazards must wear helmets that meet an accepted consensus standard; see 1910.135(a)(1) and OSHA's interpretation "Head protection for crane operators" (June 6, 2024) at https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/standardinterpretations/2024-06-06-2.
Measure standard stair width between vertical barriers (walls, stair rails, guardrails), and do not treat handrails as vertical barriers that reduce the required minimum width; see OSHA's stair-width guidance in the "Stair width measurement guidance" interpretation (Oct. 17, 2024) at https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/standardinterpretations/2024-10-17 and see the stair/handrail provisions in 1910.28.
Mobile ladder stand platforms must have steps at least 16 inches wide, uniformly spaced steps with a rise not more than 10 inches and depth at least 7 inches, and platform guardrails depend on platform height: platforms 4–10 feet require handrails and midrails, and platforms above 10 feet require guardrails and toeboards; see 1910.23(e) and OSHA's "Mobile ladder stand requirements" interpretation (June 6, 2024) at https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/standardinterpretations/2024-06-06-0.
OSHA defines an oxygen-deficient atmosphere as having less than 19.5% oxygen by volume, and that definition and standard requirements apply to civilian employees working at military facilities when they are performing work not uniquely military; see 1910.134 and OSHA's interpretation "Oxygen-deficient atmospheres in HVAC" (July 16, 2024) at https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/standardinterpretations/2024-07-16.
No; effective immediately and until further notice, OSHA announced it will not enforce the COVID-19 recordkeeping and reporting requirements adopted under 29 CFR 1910.502, including the COVID-19 log and certain reporting provisions, though OSHA will continue to enforce other applicable recordkeeping requirements under 29 CFR part 1904; see OSHA's enforcement stay memorandum "COVID-19 recordkeeping enforcement stay" (Feb. 5, 2025) at https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/standardinterpretations/2025-02-05.
Yes; C-type European Commercial Metric light truck tires may be treated under the servicing requirements of [1910.177] when their installation, use, and servicing are substantially similar to LT tires, and deviations that have no direct or immediate relationship to safety may be considered de minimis; see OSHA's interpretation "Scope of rim wheel servicing" (Aug. 1, 2024) at https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/standardinterpretations/2024-08-01 and the rim servicing standard 1910.177.
