LOAD TESTING
CRITICAL TESTING FOR CRANE SAFETY
A load test is required for all new equipment whenever any alterations or modification has been made, and when he crane has been out of service. Load testing is one of the most critical aspects of crane safety. It ensures that the crane can be safely operated for a specific load while being compliant with government regulations.
The following information is directly from OSHA 1910.179:
• Prior to initial use all new and altered cranes shall be tested to insure compliance with this section including the following functions:
– Hoisting and lowering
– Trolley travel
– Bridge travel
– Limit switches, locking and safety devices
• The trip setting of hoist limit switches shall be determine by test with an empty hook traveling in increasing speeds up to the maximum speed. The actuating mechanism of the limit switch shall be located so that it will trip the switch, under all conditions, in sufficient time to prevent contact of the hook or hook block with any part of the trolley.
As per OSHA 1910.179(k)(2), our test loads do not exceed 125% of the maximum rated load unless specifically noted by the crane manufacturer. A written report furnished by Crawford Custom will be issued.
