Quality Standards

• Spreader standards in the last year:

15

• ASME, AS,BS,DNV, NORSOK, AISC, etc.

• All of these Standards have differences which need reviewing…

Same timescale and cost for a 2t beam as that of a 2,000t beam


Standard Similarities

Drop Link – At each end of our Spreaders

• Modulift’s standard range of equipment passes all of these standards …

• BS 2573-1:1983 Rules for the design of cranes uses permissible stress

• ASME:BTH-1:2011 uses factored loads – but only small changes


Setting the Standard

• LOLER – Lifting Operation and Lifting Equipment Regulations

• EC Machinery Directive

• What do they include? = Must use a standard = New Design must be proven = 6 Monthly Inspections
