Review of the Lifting Plan

•Changes to Lifting Plans

�Changes to the type and capacity of lifting equipment used.

�Changes to the sequence of operations.

�Changes requiring reconfiguration of the crane (boom/jib length, outrigger beam length reduction, parts of hoist line, etc).

�Changes in the rigging details which could result in a reduction in rigging strength or significant increase in rigging weight.

�Changes in surrounding environment such as sudden presence of a temporary structure obstructing the operation.

�Changes in the weather and environmental conditions which have an adverse impact to the lifting operation.

�Changes to safety-critical personnel.

In conclusion

Make Every Lifting Operations

SAFE
