FAQs

This checklist specifically addresses the ANSI/ASSP A10.33 standard, which covers safety requirements for the construction and demolition of personnel and material hoists.

Crane safety audits should be conducted daily before operations begin, after any significant weather events, and whenever the crane is relocated or reconfigured.

The checklist covers areas such as crane structural integrity, load charts, control systems, rigging equipment, outrigger deployment, ground conditions, and operator certifications.

A qualified person, typically a certified crane inspector or safety manager familiar with ANSI/ASSP A10.33 standards, should be responsible for conducting the crane safety audit.

By ensuring proper crane setup, operation, and maintenance, this checklist significantly reduces the risk of crane collapses, dropped loads, and other crane-related incidents that can have catastrophic consequences on a construction site.
