SETTING UP OF MOBILE CRANES A Training Slideshow.

KEY POINTS Key points to observe with the safe setting up and operation of mobile cranes include; Personnel Training and Competency. Risk Assessment & Management. Pre-Job Planning and Inspection. Correct Crane and Equipment for Application. Onsite Arrival and Review. Onsite Planning. Correct Setup of Crane Outrigger Operation & Packing Trial Operation Safe Continual Operation. Safe completion of operation. Note: Should:- Desired Outcome Shall:- Mandatory Outcome

PERSONNEL TRAINING & COMPETENCY Crane Project Planning Personnel; Shall be appropriately familiar with the capabilities and limits of the plant & equipment they are planning operations for. Should be appropriately qualified; such as dogging, rigging, crane operation and/or engineering capabilities. Crane Crews; Three Stage Process: Training  Competency  Familiarization Should be trained and provided with continual learning, training and refresher in chosen occupation. Shall be appropriately qualified; such as dogging, rigging and crane operation. Should be formally familiarized upon the plant and equipment they are working with and operating.

RISK ASSESSMENT & MANAGEMENT Risk Assessment is not a mathematical exercise, but rather a subjective application of knowledge and experience to the realities of the worksite (Shapiro, 2000). HAZARD: Something with the potential to cause harm. This can include substances, plant, work processes and/or other aspects of the work environment. RISK: Likelihood that death, injury or illness might result because of the hazard. There are Five Basic Steps to the Risk Management Process; Identify Hazards. Assess Risks. Identify Control Measures. Implement Control Measures. Monitor and Review. When implementing controls, the control hierarchy should be observed; Elimination Substitution Engineering Administration PPE – Personal Protective Equipment should always be observed as the final line of defence. Tools for Risk Management may include a Job Safety Analysis and Programs such as the Take 5. Both of these Tools represent a method with which to rate a risk, and to rate the residual risk once a control has been identified.

PRE-JOB PLANNING & INSPECTION Responsible Contractors; Mobile Crane Hire Contractors shall have in place a means of planning (or delegation of) with all operations. This may be in the place of documented procedures of lifting operations, or the absorbing of principal contractor arrangements. A form of auditing, control and review should be in place for documented procedures. Planning Aspects; Planning should reflect guidelines provided in AS2550 – Cranes Safe Use. Aspects to be considered prior include; Typical Lift Planning characteristics such as radius, load, physical obstructions – incl. overhead & underground. Access in, around and exiting from site for crane and associated transport. Suitable area for rigging of crane, including associated equipment.

CORRECT EQUIPMENT Equipment Allocation; The correct crane and equipment for the task shall be selected by a competent person in accordance with the planning process. Care shall be taken when interchanging equipment at the 11’th hour. A ‘larger’ crane may not always be a safer option. Other factors may be introduced when a varying model of crane is interchanged, such as tail swing and outrigger spans.

ARRIVAL ONSITE AND REVIEW Key points to observe prior to establishing to site include; Access roads are available and are soundly constructed with suitable entry points to site. The workplace is adequately prepared for the incoming mobile crane, including where possible a clear predefined area/crane pad for the crane to position upon. Desired setup area should also be level, unless prior consultation has been made with the supplier of the crane.

ONSITE PLANNING Crew should always inspect site prior to positioning crane in final position; Elements to observe include; Load location and scope of lift. Location of any overhead obstructions including; wires, trees, buildings, restricted airspace (ie. Near airport). Location of any underground services and/or trenches, including utilities and drainage arrangements that may affect integrity of ground. Adequate room for rigging and erection of the mobile crane (ie. Support trucks, fly jibs). Adequate tail (counterweight/winch) swing clearance. Ability to cordon off area with suitable barricading resources.

SETTING UP OF CRANE Outrigger Operation; Outriggers should only be extended on the side where the operator is positioned or with suitably located spotter. Where space permits, outriggers shall always be fully extended. Where space is limited, crane should be configured to maximum capacity – this may require the use of reduced outriggers or on rubber; when permitted by the manufacturer. Outriggers shall always be extended to manufacturers procedures and specifications, including the requirement to fit manual pins. All outriggers/jacks should be utilised at all times (ie. front jack). Generally, Standard Safe Working Load capacity charts are based on all outriggers fully extended and set with the wheels clear of the ground.

SETTING UP OF CRANE Outrigger Packing; Additional packing should always be utilised under outrigger floats (exceptions may include engineered setups where other means of distributing load are adopted). Commonly Used (steel fabricated or otherwise) ‘Outrigger Mats’ should carry design information and be subject to periodic inspection. When Timber Packing is utilised, it should be in ‘pig-sty’ packing arrangement. ‘Rule of Thumb’ formula and calculations should be observed; Bearing Capacities of ground shall be sourced from Engineering / Site Personnel or alternatively sourced via conducted onsite assessment. Accurate Outrigger Loadings are desirable for engineered and complicated setups.

SETTING UP OF CRANE Trial Operation; Once crane is elevated and level, a trial operation should be completed by the operator; this may include; Luffing Boom to high angle, and slewing 3600 with spotter in position – Purpose to review tail swing and outrigger packing suitability. Executing ‘dry-run’ where load is required to be picked up and placed – Purpose to ensure crane is capable of task and set required limits.

SAFE CONTNIUAL OPERATION Continual Safe Operation can be aided by periodic inspection throughout the project of the following; Outrigger Jacks – Leaking Oil / retraction of shaft. Outrigger Mats – excessive settlement and/or sinking into ground; ie. Loadings increasing beyond estimated capacity of ground – such as unknown back-filling. Outrigger Floats – Cracking or critical damage. Evidence of water content in ground – ie. Potential ruptured pipeline. Should requirements change during operation, then crew shall ‘Take 5’ and review crane capacity and wider environment to ensure revised work practice is within limits and safe to continue operation.

SAFE COMPLETION Upon completion of project, or specific stage the crane, equipment and site shall be left in secure and safe manner. If crane is to be left onsite; Retract Boom, remove keys from the ignition and secure / lock. (Outriggers should be inspected prior to next use). Barricading should remain in place around and crane and any work area deemed necessary.
