Boom SWL markings

SWL markings for Cranes

SWL details must be marked:

on an external part of the the cranes structure, or

on derrick boom, or

on a plate near the heel of the derrick

and

in the driver’s cabin within easy view of driver

12T 30m / 20T 10m

SWL Outreach

Derrick/crane boom

1. Condition of SWR

2. Status of wire on winch drums

3. Condition and SWL’s of hardware & tackle

4. Check control operation

5. Check brakes

6. Check for oil leaks and condition of fittings

HOISTS

Pre-use checks

1. Read Manufacturers guide to operation

2 Always check SWL’s - assembly/hook/shackles

3. Check general condition

- distortion & damage

- gear assembly nuts

- chains & wires run smoothly

General Operations Precautions When Using Cranes to Lifting

1. Know the controls especially EMERGENCY STOP

2. Do not operate if load out of sight – otherwise use signals

3. Do not drive appliance to limit switches

4. Lift loads gently

5. Plumb loads to avoid swinging

6. Do not drag load

7. Do Not leave controls with load on hook

8. Do not stand or walk beneath a suspended load

Mechanical Advantage (MA)

MA = number of parts leading from the moving block

MA = 2 (2:1)

Moving Block

The ratio between the weight of a load, and the force required to lift the load.

MA = ?3

MA = 2

Breaking Strain

Safe Working Load (SWL)

Working Load Limit (WLL)

The ultimate strain on equipment at failure

The maximum load that should be applied to equipment

Calculating STRESS on the Hauling Part of a tackle

How Cars are Recoveredin Ireland

“Moichael, we’ve got a car ta pull out.”

“Ay Seamus, we’ll pull ‘er up directly.”

“Moichael, can yer crane hold ‘er?”“Seamus me lad, don’t be worryin’ now”

“Oh Shoit”

“Moichael, get outta the water and go get a bigger crane.”“Roight, Seamus. I will”

“Foine work Michael. No problem”

“Great”

“Now fer da crane Seamus. Up she comes.”

“Easy does it now”

“Oh f*#k it Moichael.

SAFE SLINGING CHART

Synthetic Slings Inspection

Inspect for

external cuts and abrasions

stitching undone

Synthetic Slings Inspection

Inspect for

thickening of sling - internal wear

discoloration – sunlight (uv damage)

heat damage

chemical damage

Synthetic Slings Inspection

Inspect for

end fittings and eye damage

knots

Synthetic Slings Inspection

Inspect for

sleeve damage

crushing

Safe slinging depends on:

proper inspections

correct SWL gear

connecting load securely

keeping load safely suspended

Safe Slinging

No greater than 120° between legs of a sling

Preferred angle 60º

Distance ‘L’ must not exceed distance ‘S’ to ensure 60º angle

Sling must be marked or labelled with SWL details

SWL varies according to angle between legs of sling

Additional sling legs DO NOT increase SWL of sling assembly

Grading of Chain

If chain does not have a tag then check grade

If unsure of markings assume it is Grade 30 (mild steel)

If no grade remove from service

Equipment Tests & Examinations

Register of Certificates & Tests

- Register requirements

- Certificate requirements

Safety & Legislative Requirements for Materials Handling Equipment

Materials handling equipment shall not be used for loading or unloading unless:

it has been tested thoroughly examined & certified

records indicate equipment is fit for use

it appears to be fit for use

MATERIALS HANDLING EQUIPMENT TESTS & EXAMINATIONS

MATERIALS HANDLING EQUIPMENTREGISTER REQUIREMENTS

1. Register kept on board (ship equipment) - Master’s responsibility

2 Register kept where equip normally stored - Owner’s responsibility

3 Particulars of all tests, heat treatment certification, maintenance repair or replacement shall be recorded

4. Register kept in any form, must be clearly legible and authenticated

Certificate must be on appropriate form

All certificates kept near/with materials handling register

TEST CERTIFICATE REQUIREMENTS

Inspect all equipment for defects before using.

Determine weight of load and position of the c of g

Decide method of slinging and lifting the load.

Ensure load is free to be lifted

Clear communications

Apply the load gradually to avoid exceeding the S.W.L.

Check the load's balance and general security.

When lowering, stop a short distance above the landing site

Check lifting equipment before returning to stowage.

Checks for Moving Loads Safely

Do Not connect to Bundle Strapping

A clear path to slew load

Spelter Sockets

Open Swage sockets

 

• Secures the tail or "dead end" of the wire rope to the wedge, thus eliminates loss or "Punch Out" of the wedge.

• Pin diameter and jaw opening allows the TERMINATOR™ to be used with UNI-LOC® Closed Swaged Sockets and Closed Spelter Sockets.

• Incorporates Crosby's QUIC-CHECK™ "GO" and "NO-GO" wire rope gauge feature cast into the wedge.
