Special thanks to commenter Seth, who alerted me to this app. Completely free, that has 1910 and 1926. I currently do not know if this is available for Android.
The app downloads the regs (about 32 meg), so it can be used without a connection.
Note – it has worked on my iPhone 5 but there are issues on my iPad. I will update if I learn anything. Also, if anyone knows if this is on Android, let me know and I will update this post.
Thanks again Seth:
Here is the app link:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mobile-safety-regulations/id741380887?mt=8
For both iOS and Android. Recognize the signs, know what to do. Great smartphone app, especially for outdoor work, and southern states.

An interesting site that provides practical solutions to everyday construction safety issues. Site is broke down be category, risk, exposure, trade, etc.

Most of us have seen this, but they have upgraded their search features to drill down to specific items for specific exposures. Easier to find what is needed:
All in one location – English and Spanish on most, plus printable pdf:
