The Ministry of Labour has placed a great deal of emphasis on the electrical and mechanical problems that plague Ontario's aging fleet of tower cranes. While the Regulations are (more) clear on the need for structural inspection, the requirement to inspect the health of the electrical controls and critical mechanical components (brakes, gearboxes, bearings, reeving systems, etc.) is often left to the Operator on a quick visual inspection.
The MOL tasked Professional Engineers Ontario to come up with a more comprehensive Standard for the inspection of tower cranes. This Standard is currently in development:
PEO Standard For Tower Crane Inspection
CCP Engineering can put together a comprehensive tower crane inspection plan or just add an electrical/mechanical inspection component to your existing plan.
