This standard applies to all mechanically operated tower cranes (dismountable, folding or telescopic). It specifies the rules for operation and the safety conditions to be satisfied by the construction and equipment of these cranes. Provisions relate to the following points: erection (stability, protection against derailing); electrical equipment; cabins and means of access; mechanisms, ropes, safety devices (torque limiter, tilting-moment limiter, overwinding cut-out, buffers, etc.); safety during operation, (load-rating plates and nameplates, warning signals, wind speed and direction indicator); maintenance and interventions; modification of equipment. |
