9.0 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS BEFORE ANY CRANE OPERATION

Actual crane information is used:

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION

(Brand)

Technical Specification of the Crane

The technical specification of the crane will be update before lifting

operation

Page 9 of 45
 9.1.Work Area Control

Access to the working area during the lifting and moving operation shall be restricted to those involved in the
work at hand. The work area shall be delineated and, where appropriate, process plant etc. which may create risk
shall be isolated. Care shall be taken prior to the positioning of crane.

9.2 Ground and Bearing-Pressure Consideration

It is important to ensure that no underground installation exist that could be compromised, such as electrical vaults,
conduits banks, tanks, and piping. When crane load foundation and bearing pressure are a concern to crane
stability and underground installation integrity, site utility layout, crane manufacturer’s ground-loading information,
crane configuration, and load and travel path information shall be evaluated and analyzed by a qualified person.
The qualified person shall determine if ground scans, soil stability tests, and structural analysis of underground
structures are necessary. If analysis is performed, a documented plan to ensure crane stability and integrity of
underground installation shall be provided to the supervisor of the lift operation and discussed with involved or
affected personnel.
9.3 Adverse Weather Consideration

Adverse weather conditions such as but not limited to the wind, wind gusts, rain, snow, and extreme temperatures,

that may inhibit the operator’s or the equipment’s ability to safety handles loads, shall be evaluated by the

supervision and the crane operator prior to any lifting operation. Limitations and conditions imposed by the

equipment manufacturer for adverse weather shall be implemented. Mobile crane operations shall be suspended

during lightning about 50 miles of distance as determined by Hellenic Meteorological Service.

9.3 Crane Positioning

The positioning of crane often requires to be very precise. It is a requirement that there is a minimum clearance of
600mm between slewing parts of the crane and any fixed installations to prevent men from being trapped. If this
is not practicable, access at these points must be blocked off.

9. PROCEDURE:

CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY REGULATIONS

Subpart N – Cranes Safety
29 CFR 1926.550 – 29 CFR 1926.555

Safety Measures to Be Taken Regarding Cranes

Trained and competent workers shall only be allowed to operate the cranes. Operators shall know what they are lifting
and what it weighs. For example, the rated capacity of mobile cranes varies with the length of the boom and the boom
radius. When a crane has a telescopic boom, a load may be safe to lift at a short boom length or a short boom radius,
but may overload the crane when the boom is extended and the radius increases.

To reduce the severity of an injury, employers must take the following precautions:
 Equip all cranes that have adjustable booms with boom angle indicators.
 Provide cranes with telescoping booms with some means to determine boom lengths unless the load rating
is independent of the boom length.
 Post load rating charts in the cab of cab-operated cranes. (All cranes do not have uniform capacities for the
same boom length and radius in all directions around the chassis of the vehicle.)
 Require workers to always check the crane's load chart to ensure that the crane will not be overloaded by
operating conditions.
 Instruct workers to plan lifts before starting them to ensure that they are safe.
 Tell workers to take additional precautions and exercise extra care when operating around power lines.
 Teach workers that outriggers on mobile Cranes must rest on firm ground, on timbers, or be sufficiently
cribbed to spread the weight of the crane and the load over a large enough area. (Some mobile cranes
cannot operate with outriggers in the traveling position.)
 Direct workers to always keep hoisting chains and ropes free of kinks or twists and never wrapped
around a load.
 Train workers to attach loads to the load hook by slings, fixtures, and other devices that have the
capacity to support the load on the hook.

Page 11 of 45
 Instruct workers to pad sharp edges of loads to prevent cutting slings.
 Teach workers to maintain proper sling angles so that slings are not loaded in excess of their capacity.
 Ensure that all cranes are inspected frequently by persons thoroughly familiar with the crane, the methods
of inspecting the crane, and what can make the crane unserviceable. Crane activity, the severity of use,
and environmental conditions should determine inspection schedules.
 Ensure that the critical parts of a crane-such as crane operating mechanisms, hooks, air, or hydraulic
system components and other load-carrying components-are inspected daily for any maladjustment,
deterioration, leakage, deformation, or other damage.

Steps Taken by Employers to Ensure the Safe Use of Slings

 As an employer, designate a competent person to conduct inspections of web slings before and during
use, especially when service conditions warrant. In addition, employer shall ensure that workers observe
the following precautions when working with slings:
• Remove immediately damaged or defective slings from service.
• Do not shorten slings with knots or bolts or other makeshift devices.
• Do not kink sling legs.
• Do not load slings beyond their rated capacity.
• Keep suspended loads clear of all obstructions.
• Remain clear of loads about to be lifted and suspended.
 Do not engage in shock loading.
 Avoid sudden crane acceleration and deceleration when moving suspended loads.
 Provide barricades around the swing area of a revolving cab must be used when operating a crane in
areas where pedestrians or traffic pass close by (Refer below figure):

Page 12 of 45
 Never operate cranes closer than 10 feet from power lines. Voltages greater than 50,000 volt require
greater distance (Refer below figure);

Page 13 of 45
 Provide tag lines when it is necessary to guide a suspended load (Refer below figure):

Page 14 of 45
 Provide one signal man at a time and don’t distract the crane operator.

 Working Near Excavations:

Set-Back Distance for Sloping Ground

Set-Back Distance for 1-1/2 to 1 Slopes

Page 16 of 45
 Set-Back Distance for 1-1/2 to slope

 Keep out from standing/moving under suspended loads. Watch out for materials that could fall and hit by
the moving load.

Page 17 of 45
  Ensure a way out when directing load drops

 Make sure the crane operator can see the following:

 Rated Load Capacities
 Operating Speeds
 Special Hazard
 “Warning or Instruction”

10.CONTROL OF LIFTING AND MATERIAL TRANSPORTATION:

Page 18 of 45
Lifting and transportation of all materials to site will be controlled by the Site Superintendent and the appointed lifting
foreman. Lifting area will be properly barricaded by using plastic cones and warning tapes to prevent unauthorized entry
personnel and other moving equipment. Trained, certified and experienced personnel shall be assigned for the lifting
operation. Certified lifting equipment and gears will only be used at site. Certified riggers are assigned for slinging the
load and signaling to the operator. Lifting operation will be closely monitored by the lifting foreman and the SSHO. All
material will be properly secured and protected by using latching belts and supporting steel channels on the trailer carrier
before leaving the yard or site. Equipment movement at site shall be controlled by the banks man using hand signals
and flags.

11.Classifications of Lifts Types

There are generally two types of lift, Routine and Non-Routine. Categorizing the type of lifts before planning the lift and
documenting in a lifting plan is critical because it allows for the proper assessment of the amount of risk present in the
lifting operation and the level of control required in mitigating the risks involved.

A) Routine Lifts

Routine lifting operations may be executed under a basic lift plan. These plans must clearly define the limitations on the
loads, lifting methods and areas of operation. A Risk Assessment will be required in each case, and authorized prior to
commencement. A Non-Routine may also be completed using similar documents but will require greater detail. Prior to
any lifting operation commencing, a review of the lift plan must be conducted.

Example: Routine Lifts - Bundle of rebar’s / Example: Routine Lifts – Receptacle

I-Beam

A Routine Lift is a lift which conforms to the following factors:

 Within the normal operating parameters of the crane
 Lifting over non-sensitive areas
 Suitable environmental conditions
 Load has known and evaluated weight, shape and centre of gravity
 Standard rigging arrangements
 Routine repetitive lifting operations using the same equipment
 Load has pre-determined weight, shape and centre of gravity
 Single function or series of functions repeated manually or automatically
 Order of function repeated
 Same equipment
 Same competent Crane Operators
Page 19 of 45
  Load under 75% of rated load of the load chart
 Equipment specifically installed by a competent operator/ installer
 Load has known and evaluated weight
 Centre of gravity below the lifting hook
 Use of a certified lifting point
 Ample headroom
 Not within sensitive, difficult or restricted areas
 Single lifting machine
 Unlikely to be affected by changing environmental conditions
 Standard rigging arrangements
 Suitable lay-down area available
Note: Routine lifting operations require the above factors to be considered but this list is not exhaustive. The risk of each
individual lift should be separately considered prior to classifying the lifting operation as a routine one.

B) Non-Routine Lifts

Non- Routine lifting operations will require a more detailed Lifting Plan containing all of the elements as described within
these guidelines. The plan will have to be approved by a Responsible Person prior to commencement of any Lifting
Operation and any deviation requirement identified from the plan, must also get the approval of the Responsible Person
prior to commencement of the lifting operation.

Example: Non-Routine Example: Non-Routine Lift Example: Non-Routine Lift -

Lifts - Heavy Lift Tandem Lift Complex Lift

A Non-Routine Lift is a lift which conforms to the following factors:

 Use of two or more Lifting Appliances, including tallying pipe using winch and
crane (tandem lift)
 With sensitive, difficult or restricted areas
 Lifts from one offshore vessel to another
 Continuation of a lifting operation with different people
Page 20 of 45
  Lifting of machinery without lifting points
 In environmental conditions likely to affect equipment performance
 Load with unknown / difficult to estimate weight and/or center of gravity
 Non-standard rigging arrangements
 Load lowered into or lifted from a confined space
 Weight of load in excess of 75% rated load of the load chart
Note: Non-Routine lifting operations require the above factors to be considered but this list is not exhaustive

12.Flow Chart for Identification of Routine or Non-Routine Lifting Activities

Note: Lifting and Installation of Pre-engineered Building Structural Members is carried out by standard lift using 100
Ton crane.

Page 21 of 45
13.Type of Rigging and Lifting Capacity

Lifting gears or slings generally carry their loads in one of three primary sling hitches. Most slings can be used in all
three sling hitches, but some slings are designed for use in only one hitch. Slings have the largest Work Load Limit when
used in a basket hitch. The vertical hitch Work Load Limit is 50% of the basket hitch (i.e. WLL of basket hitch = 2 x SWL).
The synthetic choker hitch Work Load Limit is a maximum of 80% (typically 70-75%) of the vertical hitch Work Load
Limit. Slings must be securely attached to the load and rigged in a manner to provide for load control to prevent slipping,
sliding and/or loss of the load. A trained, qualified and knowledgeable user must determine the most appropriate method
of rigging to help ensure load control and a safe lift. The manual or the tag on the sling should be referred to for more
information on the actual ratings for each hitch type.

Different types of Rigging

Page 22 of 45
 Example of tag on polyester webbing sling showing the WLL factors

14.Sling Angles/lengths/SWL

In any lifting operation the rigging equipment will be selected based on the weight of the load to be lifted. However, there
are times when the angle of the slings gets overlooked and what appears as the SWL on the tag or certificate is not
sufficient to do the job. Every rigging study where slings are part of the lifting gear must be checked to ensure that angles
do not reduce the lifting capacity below that of the weight of the load. A simple calculation can be done as follows:

15.Shackles/Beams/Links/SWL

The Competent Person shall ensure that all lifting gear has current and valid certificates prior to the commencement of
any lifting operation. Any shackles or links being used to join slings together shall also be sized to take into account of
the actual load that each section will be taking.

16.Operational Requirements

Page 23 of 45
Each Lifting Operation shall be planned taking into consideration the operational requirements of the site. In general,
when lifting operations are taking place there are others involved and other work activities going on in the close vicinity
of the lift.
To ensure that the lifting area is secure and free from unauthorized persons the area must be cordoned or barricaded
off. During the lift lookouts must be posted to prevent entry into the lifting area, normally these people would be
employees of the customer/client as the Lifting Team have sufficient to do taking care of the lift.

17.Centre Gravity of Load

Centre of Gravity (CG) of the load to ensure that every lifting operation is under control and free of unplanned movement,
the CG must be known. In simple lifting terms with balanced loads the CG is generally in the middle, this point will always
be directly below the center line of the crane hook block when slung.

18. GENERAL OPERATING PRECAUTIONS

Trained and competent workers shall only be allowed to operate the cranes. Operators shall know what they
are lifting and how much it weighs. For example, the rated capacity of mobile cranes varies with the length of
the boom and the boom radius. When a crane has a telescoping boom, a load may be safe to lift at a short
boom length or a short boom radius, but may overload the crane when the boom is extended and the radius
increases. Positioning of crane will be carried out in a levelled and stable ground and shall be ensured by the
competent person. The competent person will also ensure that the crane will be positioned with its outrigger
pads fully extended and shall be placed on outrigger pads.
To reduce the severity of an injury, employers must take the following precautions:
 Equip all cranes that have adjustable booms with boom angle indicators.
 Provide cranes with telescoping booms with some means to determine boom lengths unless the
load rating is independent of the boom length.
 Post load rating charts in the cab of cab-operated cranes. (All cranes do not have uniform capacities for
the same boom length and radius in all directions around the chassis of the vehicle).
 Require workers to always check the crane's load chart to ensure that the crane will not be overloaded by
operating conditions.

 Instruct workers to plan lifts before starting them to ensure that they are safe.

 Tell workers to take additional precautions and exercise extra care when operating around power lines.
 Teach workers that outriggers on mobile cranes must rest on firm ground, on timbers, or be sufficiently
cribbed to spread the weight of the crane and the load over a large enough area. (Some mobile cranes
cannot operate with outriggers in the traveling position).
 Direct workers to always keep hoisting chains and ropes free of kinks or twists and never wrapped around
a load.
 Train workers to attach loads to the load hook by slings, fixtures, and other devices that have the
capacity to support the load on the hook.
 Instruct workers to pad sharp edges of loads to prevent cutting slings.
 Teach workers to maintain proper sling angles so that slings are not loaded in excess of their capacity.
 Ensure that all cranes are inspected frequently by persons thoroughly familiar with the crane, the
methods of inspecting the crane, and what can make the crane unserviceable. Crane activity, the
severity of use, and environmental conditions should determine inspection schedules.
Ensure that the critical parts of a crane-such as crane operating mechanisms, hooks, air, or hydraulic system
components and other load-carrying components-are inspected daily for any maladjustment, deterioration,
leakage, deformation, or other damage.
Note: The site area is in an isolated area with perimeter fences and no access to public and when lifting activity
is being carried out, the area will be barricaded and a dedicated flagman will be provided to control the
movement of other trade persons and no one other than the workers related to lifting will be present at the lifting
area. Other trade persons associated with lifting which include fitters and sandwich panel installers will only be
present at the required area once the lifting is completed and after the web slings are detached and this will be
ensured by the Competent Person. The other trade personals works are related to work at height and will be
using man lift/scissor lift to perform their job. The competent person ensures that all workers while working at
height will be wearing full body harness which will be tied off to the hooking points at the Man lift/Scissor Lift.
