ASME P30.1-2019 pdf free.Planning for Load Handling Activities.
lift: to move a load vertically or horizontally with the LHE. lift director (load handling director): the person designated to direct the load handling activity.
lift plan: information and/or instruction, written or verbal, used in support of a load handling activity.
load handling equipment (LHE): equipment used to move a load vertically or horizontally.
qualified person: a person who, by possession of a recognized degree or certificate of professional standing in an applicable field, or by extensive knowledge, training, and experience, has successfully demonstrated the ability to solve or resolve problems relating to the subject matter and work.
rigging (noun): the components, hardware, and devices used to attach a load to the load handling equipment
(LII E).
rigging (verb): the process of attaching a load to the load handling equipment (LHE) by means of components, hardware or devices.
shall: term used to indicate that a rule is mandatory and must be followed.
should: term used to indicate that a rule is a recommendation, the advisability of which depends on the facts in each situation.
An evaluation of a proposed load handling activity shall be performed (see Figure 2.1.1). Documentation of the evaluation Is not required. It Is recommended that the evaluation includes a risk analysis. Useful resources include ISO 31000:2009 and ISO 31010:2009. At a minimum, the load handling category should be determined based on review of the following considerations:
(a) Potential Hazards to Persons
(1) ii the load handling activity will involve personnel lifting.
(2) if the load will be moved or suspended over areas accessible to the general public.
(3) ii the load contains materials immediately dangerous to life and health.
(4) if load handling personnel will be in locations that may be hazardous during the load handling activity (e.g.. pinch points, crush points).
(5) if site personnel other than load handling personnel will be In locations that are hazardous due to the load handling activity. This should include consideration of protection provided by existing structures.
(b) Hazards in Proximity to the Work Area
(1) if the load and/or the LI-IE can encroach the prohibited zone of power lines
(2) if there is potential for electromagnetic radiation/radio frequency hazard (e.g., loss of communication, electrical discharge, and shock)
(3) if the load handling activity can cause damage to pipes, lines, tanks, equipment, or products that could create an adverse environmental impact
(c) complexity of Load Handling Activity
(1) if the load has potential for instability during the load handling activity due to the
(-a) design or configuration of the load (e.g., shape, load integrity, and sail area)
(-b) center-of-gravity of the load relative to the established connection points
(-c) load weight shift (e.g., liquid filled, swing arms, and moveable parts)
(2) if the load handling activity uses complex load handling methods
(3) ii the load handling activity will be performed in proximity to obstructions or in limited clearance areas, Including consideration of clearance between the LHE and the load.ASME P30.1 pdf download.
