I don't know what a pendant crane is, but I would ave thought that it fitted the definition of one of the DO's about collapse of lifting equipment or whatever it is (sorry I haven't looked it up to get exact wording)

Yes
Reg2(1) schedule 2 part 1 item 1(b)
Dangerous Occurrences
Lifting machinery etc
The collapse of, the overturning of, or the failure of any load-bearing part of any –
(a) lift or hoist
(b)crane or derrick
RIDDOR is a good read, but didn't think much of the plot twist at the end.
