The Early History of Crane Safety Standards in the US
• 1916 – ASME Code of Safety Standards for Cranes (American Society of Mechanical Engineers)
• Between WWI & WWII – US Army & Navy created Military Crane Safety Standards
• 1943 – ANSI B30.2 Safety Codes for Cranes, Derricks, & Hoists (American National Standards Institute)
• 1968 – PCSA Standard #2 Mobile Power Crane & Excavator Hydraulic Crane Standards (Power Crane & Shovel Association)
• 1968 – ASME B30.5, Safety Code for Crawler, Locomotive and Truck Cranes
![Page 5: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
OSHA Gets Involved In Crane Safety
• OSHA created in 1971 and soon expands regulations to include a section called “Cranes, Derricks, Hoists, Elevators, and Conveyors” as Subpart N of 29 CFR part 126. This was essentially an incorporation of the AMSE B30.5 established in 1968.
• Between 1971 and 2010 (39 years) there were no new safety regulations enacted that addressed crane safety.
![Page 6: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Crane Industry Leaders Influence Safety
• 1982 – Don Dickie founder of the Construction Safety Association of Ontario published the Mobile Crane Manual. Key innovation was on spelling out responsibilities among contractors and personnel.
• 1991 – Howard Shapiro – leading crane expert published Cranes and Derricks. Shapiro advanced Dickie’s work and pioneered the concept of a “Lift Director”
![Page 7: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
C-DAC Launched SC&RA Insurance Program Provides Useful Data
• 1998 – OSHA’s expert Advisory Committee on Construction Safety & Health (ACCSH)established a workgroup to recommend changes to the old 1970 standard.
• 1999 – ACCSH implemented a “negotiated rulemaking” process to develop the new standard.
• 1999 - SC&RA Insurance Program Manager provides detailed claim data to C-DAC committee to assist in developing recommendations
![Page 8: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
OSHA Establishes New Crane Safety Standard
• 2003 – C-DAC issued a “consensus draft” document.
• 2008 – OSHA published proposed rule
• 2009 – Public hearing held • 2010 – OSHA issued final rule
![Page 9: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
ASME Updates B30.5 Standard in 2007
• 2007 update spelled out different responsibilities essentially building on Shapiro’s work:
Crane Operator Crane Owner Crane User Lift Director Site Supervisor …all had a list of specific
responsibilities
![Page 10: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
RESPONSIBILITIES
![Page 11: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Between 1989 & 2008 there were Four Major Crane Accidents that had a Major Impact on Crane
Safety
![Page 12: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
San Francisco Tower Crane Collapse of 1989
• Tower Crane collapsed and fell 343 ft. from 20th floor of downtown building.
• 5 killed, 19 injured including crushed school bus
• Property damage estimated at $10 million
• Crane operator was inexperienced.
• Accident led to public outcry that crane operators be trained.
![Page 13: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
“Big Blue” Collapse at Miller Park Baseball Stadium in Milwaukee
• “Big Blue” – One of the largest Heavy Lift Cranes in North America at the time
• July 1999 – crane attempted to lift 400+ ton roof section in high winds
• Lift was performed over objections of Riggers & Ironworkers and Operators
• This accident resulted in 3 killed, five injured and several hundred million in property damage.
• Accident raised industry safety awareness right at the time C-DAC was developing the new OSHA safety standard
![Page 14: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
New York City – Two Tower Cranes Collapse in 90 Days
• March 2008 – East 51st St. Tower Crane collapsed during “jumping” operation
• 7 dead, 24 injured, several buildings damaged and millions in property damage.
• Accident occurred from deviation and improper rigging procedures during jump
• This accident resulted in 3 killed, five injured and millions in property damage.
![Page 15: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
New Crane Standard Was Designed to Reduce the Three Leading Causes of Crane Accidents
1)Crane Operator Error 2)Ground Conditions 3)Powerline Hazards
![Page 16: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
In Order to Address these Key Crane Accident Causation Factors OSHA Developed a “One-Two Punch” Approach
1) Multi-Employer Doctrine 2) Controlling Entity
![Page 17: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Under New Crane Standard OSHA Now Has More Enforcement Power
• OSHA has used the new Crane Standard to expand its enforcement powers under the:
Multi-Employer Doctrine
(controlling entity)
![Page 18: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
What is the Multi-Employer Doctrine?
“An employer who controls or creates a worksite safety hazard may be liable under the Act (OSHA) even if the employees threatened by the hazard are solely employees of another employer.”
![Page 19: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
OSHA Also Created an Entirely New Concept Called the “Controlling Entity”
This concept is not found in any other OSHA standard. This creates new regulatory responsibilities for certain jobsite safety issues among other trades other than just the employer (which has always been the main area of OSHA authority)
Controlling Entity
![Page 20: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
What is the “Controlling Entity?”
The Standard defines “Controlling Entity” as follows:
An employer that is a prime contractor,
general contractor, construction manager or any other legal entity which has overall responsibility for the construction of the project – its planning and completion.”
![Page 21: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Controlling Entities’ Responsibilities
Responsibilities of Controlling Entities:
OSHA 1926.1402 assigns controlling entities specific responsibilities for ensuring that ground conditions necessary for cranes on construction sites are safe.
![Page 22: Preventing and Protecting Against OSHA’s Top 10 Workplace Accidents](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070510/58a80c731a28ab3d6e8b5c59/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
New OSHA Standard Creates a “New Hierarchy” in Crane Safety
As a result, OSHA’s enforcement capabilities have an extended reach to all contractors working on a jobsite where there is a working crane. Therefore all contractors will be responsible for safety procedures of their own employees working near the crane and for training their employees to follow safe crane procedures.
These regulations have created a new hierarchy for crane safety consisting of the following entities:
• Employers • Users of Equipment • Utility Company Owners/Operators • Controlling Entities
