Abstract

The purpose of this publication is to provide guidance the users, manufacturers and specifies of mobile cranes by identifying relevant documents/standards that may be applicable to mobile cranes. This publication identifies U.S. federal, state and local laws, national and industry consensus standards, international standards and other documents written specifically for mobile cranes, or having provisions specific to mobile cranes. Some of the national or industry consensus standards are applicable to nearly all mobile crane applications and are typically invoked by owner specifications. Others apply to unique crane applications and are not necessarily appropriate for commercial or standards industrial cranes.
