Load testing your Hoist in Iowa

Each time that you move & reinstall a hoist, it must be Load Tested again, according to The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)B30.17 Cranes and Monorails (With Underhung Trolley or Bridge).

The Crane Manufacturers Association of America, Inc.’s Crane Operator’s Manual (CMAA Specification No. 79 – 2020) Any time that you are installing, reinstalling, or repairing any type of hoist onto a crane system, you’re required to do a load test.

ALWAYS DO THIS - DON’T ASSUME THAT IT’S SAFE.

Please give us a call & ask about load testing plans for your everchanging factory. We can help you with implementing a Safety Strategy that will alleviate the worry & replace it with confidence.
