Posted By Ben Hughes Hi all, Would anybody happen to know off the top of their head what are the minimum design safety factors for mechanical lifting devices? - Mobile cranes - Overhead cranes - MEWPS / Cherry pickers - FLT's I have searched and searched but can not find anything. Im working on improving the safety of crane operations in our organisation in the hope of producing some sort of matrix style document for design standards, document requirements, inspection requirements etc etc... Is there any mechanical engineers here?! Thanks in advance! Ben

Posted By Andrew W If you can get access to a copy of BS7121 all the crane standards are in the bibliography at the rear. If not email me direct and I'll send you a word document with the info. Regards Andy W
