(8) Standard service conditions are the conditions under which the SWL of a lifting appliance is ascertained. It
is to include all of the following conditions:
the angle of heel not exceeding 5 and a trim of 2 during the operation of the appliance;
the appliance being operated in harbour;
the appliance being operated at a wind speed not exceeding 20 m/s and a corresponding wind pressure
not exceeding 250 Pa;
the motion of lifting load being free from any external conditions;
the nature of the lifting operations in terms of their frequency and dynamic characteristics being
compatible with the load of factor permitted in the Rules for the appliances concerned.
(9) Specified service conditions mean the operating conditions for the design of an appliance, which are more
onerous than those as described in the standard service condition in virtue of any of the following operational
and environmental conditions being applicable:
the angle of heel and/or trim of a ship exceeding those as specified in the standard service conditions;
the appliance being operated in an unsheltered area;
the appliance being operated at a wind speed exceeding 20 m/s and a corresponding wind pressure
exceeding 250 Pa;
the load not being at rest at the time when the appliance commences the lift;
the motion of lifting load not being free from the external constraints;
the nature of the lifting operation in terms of their frequency and dynamic characteristics not being
compatible with the factor load permitted in the Rules for the appliances concerned.
(10) Factor load means the loads (excluding wind load) to be considered in designing a lifting appliance, expressed
as follows:
factor load = live load duty factor dynamic factor
(11) Live load is the sum of the safe working load (SWL) of an appliance and the static weight of any component
of the appliance which is directly connected to, and undergoes the same motion as, the safe working load during
the lifting operation.
(12) Duty factor is a factor which makes allowances for the frequency and state of loading for which a lifting
appliance is to be considered in design.
(13) Dynamic factor is a factor which takes account of all the dynamic effects of the appliance arising from its
lifting operation, and by which the live load is multiplied to represent the load for all dynamic effects on the
system.
(14) Dead load is the self-weight of any component of the lifting appliance which is not included in the live
load.
(15) Design stress is the maximum stress permitted in the Rules to which any component part of a lifting appliance
may be subjected when the appliance is lifting its safe working load (SWL), that is, when the appliance is
subjected to the factor load plus the specified lateral and wind loads.
(16) General examination is to take the form of a visual inspection of the lifting appliances, which is to be supported
by other means as necessary and carried out so far as practical to achieve a sound view on components in
question. For this purpose, components or parts are to be dismantled for more thorough examination where
considered necessary.
(17) External examination is to take the form of a visual inspection of the lifting appliances by checking for
deformation or other defects of components, such as chafe or excessive wear and corrosion.

2.2.4.1The outreach C beyond the midship breadth is not to be less than 3.5 m or that as required by the
owner.
2.2.4.2The inboard boom head in the projection plan within cargo hatch is to be located:
(1) with a distance l not more than L/5 from the opposite side of the hatch for which only one pair of derricks
are fitted (see Figure 2.2.4);
(2) with a distance l not more the L/3 from the opposite side of the hatch for which two pairs of derricks are
fitted;
(3) with a distance of 1.5 m from the side of hatch.
2.2.4.3Where the angle formed by the cargo runners is assumed to be equal to 120, the minimum headroom
h from the joint (triangle plate) of two cargo runners over the top edge of hatch coaming or bulwark is not to
be less than:

where SWL is the safe working load of the union purchase rig, in kN.
Where the headroom h as stated above cannot meet the requirements for practical operation, it is to be
suitably increased.
2.2.5The force calculation for the union purchase rig is to be such that the thrust of derrick boom and the
load of preventer guys will be obtained from the position of the rig which gives the maximum value within its
practical working range. In general, the position of the rig as shown in Figure 2.2.5(a) may be used for such
calculation, and in such case, the angle between the cargo runners is to be taken as 120 and the position of the
triangle plate connecting two cargo runners is supposed at the lowest position as shown in Figure 2.2.5(b).

2.3DERRICK BOOMS
2.3.1Construction of booms
(1) The boom may be constructed as a member with uniform diameter and thickness over its full length or as a
tapered component which has a mid-length with uniform diameter and thickness connected to the tapered ends;
(2) The mid-length with uniform diameter of a tapered boom is to at least be maintained one third of the boom
length and the end diameter of the tapered ends shall not be less than 70 percent of the mid-length diameter;
(3) The wall thickness of boom is not to be less than 1/50 of the external diameter of the boom at its midlength
and need not be greater than 1/30, but in no case be less than 4 mm;
(4) The slenderness ratio (boom length/effective boom slewing radius) of the boom is in general not to be
greater than 150;
(5) The boom head is to be adequately strengthened or increase its thickness in way of the portion where the
eyeplates for span tackle, cargo block or preventer guy are fitted.
2.3.2The materials of derrick booms and their associated fittings are to comply with the requirements as
prescribed in Table 2.3.2 or with a national standard recognized by CCS, which is appropriate to the intended
purpose.

2.3.4The permissible axial boom thrust may also be calculated in accordance with the theory of elastic
stability. For such calculations the effects of bending moment due to the self-weight of boom and the end
moment at boom head are to be taken into account. The safety factor n for the stability of boom subjected to
axial compression of such calculation is not to be less than that as given in Table 2.34. Intermediate values are
to be obtained by linear interpolation.

values are to be obtained by linear interpolation.

Note: When the ratio exceeds 0.9, it is to be taken as 0.9.
2.3.6The end moment at boom head for a conventional derrick rig is to be taken as the algebraic sum of
moments in the vertical plane of the derrick boom caused by the span tackle and cargo loads applied to their
respective boom head fittings. The horizontal end moments at boom head due to the loads of slewing or
preventer guys may, in general, be neglected.
2.3.7In the case of a derrick crane, the derrick boom has two span tackles in which the span load is not
equally distributed each other provided the boom is not placed at the ships longitudinal centre line. In such
case, a torque will occur at the boom head and is to be taken into account for the calculation of stability in
accordance with the requirements in 2.3.4 of this Chapter.
2.4MAST AND DERRICK POST
2.4.1Mast and derrick post are to be supported by at least two decks and effectively connected to the main
hull structure. Deck house may be considered as a deck support provided it has an adequate strength. The hull
structure or such deck house in way of the supports shall be reinforced.
Alternative means which give effective supports for the mast or derrick post will be specially considered.
2.4.2The mast or derrick post is to be adequately reinforced where concentrated loads take place, such as in
way of gooseneck bearing, span eye fittings and the fittings for mast stay. The toes of brackets and the corners
of fittings are not to be placed on the unstiffened panels of plating. Reinforcement is to be made by increasing
plate thickness.
2.4.3Structural continuity is to be maintained for the structure of components and any abrupt change of
section is to be avoided. Openings (such as lightening hole, manhole) are, in general, to be avoided where
concentrated loads and high shear forces occur.
2.4.4The outside diameter D of the mast or derrick post is not to be greater than the value as given by the
following expression:
D=
(3) For mast or derrick post fitted with both heavy and light derricks, the combination of loading resulting
from the heavy and light derricks need not, in general, be considered.
(4) Should it be possible that greater stress will occur at the position of mast or derrick (including stayed mast)
other than above, such conditions are to be taken into account.
2.4.8The combined stresse t at any particular section of a mast or derrick post are to be taken as:

2.4.10Where the yield strength s of steel used is more than 70 per cent of the tensile strength b, the yield
strength is to be modified in accordance with the requirements in 2.3.5 of this Chapter.
2.4.11The grade of steel used for the manufacture of mast, derrick post and its accessories is not to be lower
than those as given in Table 2.3.2.
2.4.12The arrangement of mast stays is not to obstruct the operation of derrick rig. Turnbuckles are to be
fitted at the bottom of the stays and connected to the eyeplates attached to deck, bulwark or deckhouse.
The stays are to be set up to an initial tension.
The modulus of elasticity of wire ropes for the calculation of elongation of stays may be taken as 1.1 105 MPa
and the sectional area of the rope may be taken as that of its nominal diameter. Greater value of the modulus of
elasticity may be taken provided it is obtained from the actual test.

3.2.3.1The basic loads applied to the crane comprise the dead load and live load.
3.2.4Duty factor
3.2.4.1Cranes are grouped depending on the nature of the duty they perform and the duty factor d of each
group of cranes is given in Table 3.2.4.1. The duty factor depends on the frequency of operation and the severity
of load lifted with respect to the SWL of the crane concerned and assumes the operating lift not exceeding 6
105 cycles for normal marine use. Consideration is to be given to appropriately increasing the values in the
Table where extra heavy duty is envisaged.

3.2.4.2Consideration is to be given to the live load and dead load to be effected by the duty factor d.
3.2.5Dynamic forces and hoisting factor h
3.2.5.1The dynamic forces due to hoisting are those imposed on the structure by shock and acceleration
effect. To take this effect into account, the live load is to be multiplied by a hoisting factor h which is given by
the following expression:
h = 1 + CV
where: V hoisting speed, in m/s, but need not be taken as greater than 1.0 m/s;
C a coefficient depending on the stiffness of the crane concerned, taken as 0.3 for jib type cranes,
and 0.6 for gantry type cranes.
But in any case, the value h is not to be taken as less than 1.10 for jib cranes and 1.15 for gantry cranes.
3.2.6Dynamic forces due to crane movements
3.2.6.1When a crane travels along a track or rails, the dynamic forces are to be taken into account as follows:
(1) When a crane travels along the rails which are level and smooth, the vertical acceleration acting on the
crane is normally low and the vertical reaction force does not occur simultaneously with the maximum dynamic
force in hoisting loads, they may, in general, be ignored.
(2) The horizontal inertia force is the product of live load together with the self-weight of crane and the
acceleration or deceleration which will occur due to the starting or braking of a travelling mechanism.
The horizontal acceleration including that of braking is to be supplied by the manufacturer. Where the
acceleration is not available but the speed and working condition are known, the acceleration or deceleration a
is to be obtained from the following expression:
for cranes with low travel speed (V = 0.4 to 1.5 m/s) and with low acceleration:
aa==0.15
0.15 V m/s2
for cranes with moderate to high travelling speed (V = 1.5 to 4.0 m/s) and with normal acceleration:
aa==0.25
0.25 V m/s2
for cranes with moderate to high travelling speed (V = 1.5 to 4.0 m/s) and high acceleration:
aa==0.33
0.3 V m/s2

3.2.8Buffers and buffer forces
3.2.8.1Forces applied to the crane structure as a result of the travelling crane coming into contact with buffers
are to be taken into account.
3.2.8.2The buffer is assumed to have a capacity absorbing the kinetic energy of an unloaded crane which
travels at 70 per cent of its rated speed. The forces are to be determined with the reduced travel speed of a crane
at the buffering effect
3.2.8.3Where deceleration devices are fitted which will operate automatically and give effective deceleration
to the crane at all times before the crane reaches the end of the track, the reduced speed produced by the devices
may be used in calculation.
3.2.8.4For cranes where the lifting load is free to swing, the buffer force is to be calculated by equating the
energy capacity of the buffer with the kinetic energy of the crane deadweight, excluding the live load. For
cranes where the lifting load is restricted from swinging by rigid guides, the deadweight plus the live load is to
be used in the calculation of the forces.
3.2.9Slewing and luffing inertia forces
3.2.9.1The inertial forces acting on live load and crane structure due to slewing and luffing are to be considered.
-21-
3.2.9.2The horizontal inertial force acting on the live load while swinging or luffing can be taken as that
produced from the pendulum amplitude of the hoisting rope.
3.2.9.3While the slewing and luffing mechanism accelerate or decelerate, the horizontal inertial forces acting
on moving parts and live load are to be taken as 1.5 times the product of its weight and acceleration.
3.2.9.4In general, the effect of centrifugal force acting on the crane structure is small and may be ignored.
3.2.10Loads due to ship inclination
3.2.10.1Shipboard cranes are to be designed to operate safely and effectively in harbors or well sheltered
sea areas in inclined conditions specified in Table 3.2.10.1. Consideration is to be given to conditions where
it is intended to operate a crane on a vessel at angles greater than those as specified above. Where angles less
than those as specified are proposed, calculations are to be submitted to show that such lesser angles will not be
exceeded in service.

3.2.12Wind loading
3.2.12.1The wind pressure q due to wind speed is to be determined by the following expression:
q = 0.613V2Pa
where: V wind speed (average speed in a period of 2 minutes), in m/s. The wind speed for the operating
condition is to be taken as 20 m/s, and for the stowed condition as 55 m/s. Where it is expected that
wind speed can exceed those defined above, then these higher wind speeds are to be considered.
-23-
3.2.12.2The wind force Fn acting on the suspended load is, in general, to be calculated from the following expression:

compression stress divided by the safety factor n as defined in Table 3.2.16.1. In addition to the checking of the
local stability of individual member of a crane jib, examination is to be made to the overall stability of crane
jibs for the compression loading.
The allowable stress [st] for stability for members subjected to compression is given by the following expression:
>V st @
V cr
n
MPa
V m m V c c 1 1
+
d
V s s V cr cr n n
where: m applied bending stress, in MPa;
c applied compression stress, in MPa;
s yield strength of steel, in MPa;
cr and n the same as defined in 3.2.17.1.
For members subjected to bending stress in both x and y directions, m in the above stress criteria is to be
substituted by the sum of bending stresses in x direction and that in y direction.
3.2.18Overall stability of crane jibs
3.2.18.1The overall stability of crane jibs is to be checked with respect to critical compressive failure of the
jib as a whole with regard to both plan and elevation planes.
3.2.18.2The slenderness ratio is to be calculated from the effective length of the jib divided by the effective
radius of gyration in the plane concerned. The effective radius of gyration is given in 3.2.19.2.
3.2.18.3The effective length of the jib is dependent on the constraint conditions at its ends. For wire rope
supported jibs the effective length is to be calculated from the following expression:
le = kL
where:
mm
R D CH
2
RH D CRl H
where: C the ratio of the load applied to the jib head by the luffing wire rope to that applied
to the non-vertical part of the hoist wire ropes; R, R H, R l , D and H are
dimensions, in mm, as shown in Figure 3.2.18.3.

3.2.19.2For members which have constant sectional area and uniformly varying second moment of area, the
expression for calculating the slenderness ratio is the same as that given in 3.2.19.1 above, but the radius of

3.3OFFSHORE CRANES
3.3.1Application
3.3.1.1This Section applies to cranes which are designed to operate in offshore environments. Those are
defined as sea environments in which there is significant movement of the ship or installation on which the
crane is mounted due to wave action. The sea state will, in general, be in excess of that described by Beaufort
No.2.
The above-mentioned cranes cover jib cranes, A frames and fixed structures used for lifting operations.
3.3.1.2The requirements of 3.2 of this Chapter are to apply to offshore crane design except where specific
requirements are defined in this Section.
3.3.1.3Cranes mounted on offshore installation used solely for lifting operations on the installation itself may
be considered as shipboard cranes as defined in 3.2 of this Chapter.
3.3.1.4Travelling gantry cranes will be specially considered on the basis of this Section.
3.3.2Service category and duty factor
3.3.2.1Except the case as specified otherwise, the design of offshore cranes is to be made in accordance with
specified service category. The duty factor d = 1.20 is to be used for all offshore cranes.
3.3.3Dynamic forces
3.3.3.1The dynamic forces due to hoisting for offshore cranes are to include the effect of relative movement
of the crane besides load due to normal hoisting shock and dynamic effects.
3.3.3.2The hoisting factor h is considered to be dependent on the design operational sea conditions which
may be defined by the Beaufort No., sea state No. or wave height and period, and is to be calculated from the
following expression:

3.6.3Materials
3.6.3.1The grade of steel for crane pedestals is to comply with the requirements of Table 6.2.2.1. Where the
pedestal is connected to the hull support by bolts, the requirements for the bolts are to be equivalent to those for
slewing ring bolts.
3.7.1General requirements
3.7.1.1This Section applies to cargo and vehicle lifts which are operated whilst the ship is in a harbour or
sheltered waters, and where the cargo or vehicles may be stowed on the ship in their stowed position whilst the
ship is at sea. These lifts may be designed in compliance with the requirements of Standard Service Category,
otherwise they are to be designed in compliance with those of Specific Service Category.
3.7.1.2The operating and stowed loading conditions are to be clearly specified in all submissions together
with hoisting speeds and braking frequency.
3.7.1.3For the operating condition the lift is to be considered with respect to the following loads and forces:
(1) load due to self-weight of lift;
(2) applied loading;
(3) dynamic forces due to hoisting/lowering;
(4) static forces due to inclination of the ship.
3.7.1.4The lift structure and locking mechanism are also to be examined with respect to the stowed condition
for the following criteria appropriate to the ships characteristics:
(1) load due to self-weight of lift;
(2) applied load due to vehicle or cargo loading;
(3) forces due to ships motion and static inclination;
(4) weather loading, where appropriate.
3.7.2 Basic loads
3.7.2.1The self-weight load, Lm, is the load imposed on the hoisting mechanism by the weight of the structure
and machinery.
3.7.2.2The applied load, Lc, is the loading imposed on the lift structure by the cargo or vehicle.
3.7.2.3The safe working load (SWL) is the maximum load for which the lift is certified and is equal to the
maximum value of Lc.
3.7.3Dynamic forces and coefficient
3.7.3.1To take account of the acceleration and shock loading the self-weight Lm and applied load Lc are to be
multiplied by a coefficient of 1.2.
3.7.4Forces due to ships motion
3.7.4.1For the operational condition, the lift is to be designed to operate safely and efficiently at an angle of
heel of the ship of 5 and an angle of trim of 2 acting simultaneously. If it is intended to operate a lift at angles
greater than above, the lift is to be designed for the proposed angles and the certificate marked accordingly.
-39-
3.7.4.2In addition to the operating conditions, the lift and its locking mechanism are all to be designed to
withstand the conditions when stowed:
(1) acceleration normal to deck of 1.0 g;
acceleration parallel to deck in fore and aft direction of 0.5 g;
static heel of 30;
(2) acceleration normal to deck of 1.0 g;
acceleration parallel to deck in transverse direction of 0.5 g;
static inclination of 30.
3.7.4.3Alternatively, for a conventional ship of which the characteristics are known, the forces may be
calculated for the combination of static and dynamic forces in accordance with the requirements as specified in
3.2.11.2.
3.7.5Design loads
3.7.5.1The design loads are to be consistent with the ships loading manual and include the details of the
number and spacing of vehicles the lift is designed to accommodate, the type of vehicles, their weight, axle
loading, tyre print dimension, and number and spacing of wheels and supports. Figures 3.7.5.1(a) to (d) give the
typical loading information, in which the maximum axle loading of 20 ft container trailers is 175 kN and that of
40 ft container trailers 159 kN. Due account of asymmetric loading is to be taken where applicable.

3.10STRENGTH OF SUPPORTING STRUCTURE OF CRANE PEDESTALS
3.10.1General requirements
3.10.1.1This Section applies to the design and strength analysis of the supporting structure in way of
connection of the crane pedestal to hull structure. Where there is no requirement specified in this Section,
the relevant requirements in PART TWO of CCS Rules for Classification of Sea-Going Steel Ships are to be
complied with.
3.10.1.2The supporting structure is the portion of hull structure, on or in which the pedestal, eyeplates, pin
seat, anchorage, tripping elements of a lifting appliance are fitted and which directly bears the forces acting on
such components. The supporting structure is to be capable of withstanding the most unfavorable design load
and is to have sufficient strength to ensure normal operation and equipment safety of the crane.
3.10.1.3In addition to the requirements of this Section, the supporting structure is to fully comply with the
requirements for the same portion of hull structure.
3.10.2Plans and documents
3.10.2.1The following plans and documents are to be submitted for approval:
(1) Structural arrangement plan, local structural strengthening plan, detailed plans of connections between
pedestal and deck and between supporting structures (details of such connections), covering all components in
the area of the supporting structure.
3.10.2.2The following plans and documents are to be submitted for information:
(1) Arrangement of jib (boom) and derrick post;
(2) Details of loads acting on pedestal;
(3) Strength calculations, including
a.description of operation conditions and load combinations;
b.wind, wave and current parameters of the most severe operating sea state and stowage condition;
c.report of seakeeping analysis and motion response calculation or model test report, as appropriate;
d.description of calculation model, including element types, boundary conditions;
e.calculation results, including deflection/deformation and yield, buckling.
-55-
3.10.2.3In addition to 3.10.2.1 and 3.10.2.2, electronic data of the calculation model may be required.
3.10.3Materials and welding of components
3.10.3.1The requirements for materials and welding of the supporting structure are based on the primary
structure defined in Chapter 6, and the survey requirements for welding of direct connections to the crane
pedestal (derrick post) are based on the special structure in Table 6.5.3.3.
3.10.4Structural details
3.10.4.1Connection details are to be so designed that stress will be reasonably transferred between connected
components. Expansion, increased thickness (without doubling plate) and smooth tapering of the connection,
high tensile steel, etc. may be used to reduce stress level and/or decrease so far as possible the effects of stress
concentration.
3.10.4.2So far as practical, holes are to be avoided in way of the components directly connected to crane
pedestal and derrick post and the ends of such components. Where this is unavoidable, compensation for the
purpose of safety is to be made.
3.10.4.3The derrick post is to extend continuously through the upper (main) deck into the hull and terminate
at a vertical supporting structure which is adequate in strength. Brackets, floors, girders, etc. are to be fitted in
way of connection between the post and deck so as to effectively transfer horizontal loading from all directions
to the supporting structure. The design is to avoid excessive stress acting on the deck plate connected to pedestal
and derrick post. Where necessary, Z-direction steel may be locally arranged within 1 m of the intersection of
connections in accordance with 3.10.4.4.
3.10.4.4Transfer of great tensile stress in through-thickness direction is to be avoided so far as practical to
prevent possible lamellar tearing of the plate. Where this is unavoidable, Z-direction steel complying with CCS
Rules for Materials and Welding is to be used.
3.10.4.5In addition, structural details are to be designed and constructed in compliance with the applicable
requirements of PART TWO of CCS Rules for Classification of Sea-Going Steel Ships.
3.10.5Design loads
3.10.5.1Design loads are generally to be based on the operating conditions and load combinations specified
in 3.2 to 3.5, covering at least the following maximum loading:
(1) vertical loading;
(2) horizontal loading;
(3) overturning moment;
(4) torque.
3.10.5.2The inertial forces of the crane in response to and due to the ships motions are to be obtained
according to 3.2.11.2 and in addition, may be determined by recognized software in seakeeping analysis and
quasi-static analysis according to the most severe sea state likely to be encountered.
3.10.5.3 For wind loads, horizontal inertial forces and other horizontal loads as well as overturning moments,
the most unfavorable bearing angles of their actions in respect to the supporting structure are to be obtained
by searching trial calculation methods or alternatively, typical bearing angles of such actions in longitudinal,
transverse and different oblique directions may also be selected according to experience and practical operating
conditions.
3.10.6Models for calculation
3.10.6.1When checking the strength of supporting structures, three-dimensional finite element model is to be
applied, so far as possible, in the analysis to more exactly describe the distribution of structural response in all
directions. Where beam grillage or plate girders are used, the model is to be reasonably simplified and be more
conservative. The analysis is to be based on the theory of linear elasticity. In general, consideration will not be
given to deducting corrosion margins from scantlings in the model.
3.10.6.2The principles for extent, element types and boundary conditions of a three-dimensional model are as
follows:
-56-
(1) Extent: The structural model is generally a local three-dimensional one (hereinafter referred to as local
model), centred on the centroid of a plane rectangle (a b) for effects of the foundation and extending
outwards for a distance respectively at least one time the length and width corresponding to the rectangle (3a
3b). This extension reaches vertically from the foundation plane to the first platform (deck) under main deck
or at least D/4 (D being moulded depth). Where there is no primary supporting member of the structure at
the boundary taken in the above way, the model is to further extend until the boundary is at such supporting
member, see Figure 3.10.6.2(1). For the pedestal of a heavy lift crane taking a large portion of the ships width,
the calculation model for its supporting structure is to be appropriately extended, depending on the size of the
pedestal, to take a complete longitudinal 3-dimensional block covering shell plating, see Figure 3.10.6.2(2). In
order to take account of the interaction of the derrick post and supporting structure, consideration is to be given
to incorporating into the model a portion of the derrick post extending above deck, see Figure 3.10.6.2. The
principles for element selection, properties and meshing etc. of the model are as given in CCS Guidelines for
Direct Strength Analysis of Oil Tanker. For better observation of the effects of openings in high stress areas, it is
recommended that meshing of the local area along the edge of an opening be appropriately refined. The meshes
are generally to be refined to a size between one third and one fourth of the original size;
(2) Boundary conditions: The boundary conditions are to be so assumed that calculation results of the elements
under consideration in the centre area will not be affected. In general, free or fixed support may be taken into
account, or Table 3.10.6.2 may be followed:

-57-
Figure 3.10.6.2(2)
3.10.6.3In general, the load for calculation is to be applied to the top of derrick post (if any) or pedestal
model, and the resultant force is to act at the geometric centroid of the end face in question. It is recommended
that the load be applied by MPC (multipoint constraint/master and slave nodes), see Figure 3.10.6.3.
Figure 3.10.6.3
3.10.6.4For large slewing cranes, the load applied on the supporting structure (e.g. wheel pressure of the
pedestal) is to be reasonably distributed, if applicable.
3.10.7Strength criteria
3.10.7.1For all loading conditions, the stresses taken in calculation for components are not to exceed the
permissible values. In this case, the permissible stress is taken as the material yield strength divided by the
corresponding safety factor in Table 3.10.7.1.

Stress type
3.10.7.2For longitudinal supporting members within 0.4L midships which contribute to the longitudinal
strength of hull girders, the strength under the combined action of local load (crane load) and longitudinal
bending moment of hull girders is to be checked, in addition to complying with the local strength requirements
specified in 3.10.7.1. The longitudinal bending moment of hull girders is to be taken as the target bending
moment Mlongi_target at the cross section corresponding to the centre of the model in a certain condition. The total
resultant stress may be obtained by superimposing the local resultant stress on the stress due to the longitudinal
bending moment of hull girders based on Mlongi_target, or alternatively, the resultant stress may be obtained in
model analysis by directly applying the longitudinal bending moment of hull girders at both ends of the model
(see CCS Guidelines for Direct Strength Analysis of Oil Tanker for details). Where the effects of vertical forces
(e.g. buoyancy, ballast water) are taken into account for the model, the longitudinal bending moment Mlongi_app
of hull girders actually applied at both ends of the model is to be so adjusted that the total longitudinal bending
moment at the centre of the model is as close as possible to Mlongi_target. The safety factor of superimposed
equivalent resultant stress is to be not less than 1.1.
3.10.7.3If the mechanical deformation of the supporting structure interferes with working performance of
the crane, deflection criteria based on the working may be required for effective control of deformation of the
supporting structure system.

be held stationary when the winch drive is switched off.
7.4.1.4Where derricks have been approved for operation in union purchase, they are to be rigged and tested
with a test load in accordance with Table 7.4.1.1, after being tested in accordance with 7.4.1.1 to 7.4.1.3. The
test is to be carried out for the headroom, runner angle and the guy positions which are to comply with the
approved plans.
7.4.1.5In addition to the tests in accordance with 7.4.1.1 to 7.4.1.3, the derrick cranes are to be luffed and
slewed at slow speed while bearing the full test load. The luffing angle is to be in accordance with the design
working angle and the slewing test is to be carried out at the lowest luffing angle to the horizontal. The slewing
angle limit is to comply with the approved design plan.
7.4.1.6After completion of testing in accordance with 7.4.1.1 to 7.4.1.5, the derricks or derrick cranes are to
be thoroughly examined for deformation or other defects.
7.4.2Testing of cranes
7.4.2.1Each crane is to be tested with a test load in accordance with Table 7.4.1.1 and the test procedure is
to be subject to agreement. The jib is to be placed at its maximum jib radius as specified in the approved plan
and the test is to be carried out using certified weight suspended from the cargo hook or lifting attachment for a
duration not less than 5 min after lifting up the test weights.
7.4.2.2During the test, the crane is to hoist, slew and luff the test load at slow speed and braking tests are also
to be carried out to the hoisting, slewing and luffing mechanisms for their effectiveness. Gantry and travelling
cranes together with their travelling trolleys, where appropriate, are to be travelled slowly over the full length of
their track with the test load suspended from hook.
7.4.2.3In case of a variable load-radius crane the tests are, in general, to be carried out for the appropriate
safe working loads at their respective jib radius. Alternative proposals will be specially considered.
7.4.2.4Overload protection devices and overmoment protection devices, if any, are to be verified for their
operation.
7.4.2.5Where it is not practicable for the crane to raise the full test load, as may be the case for hydraulic
cranes, a reduced test load may be accepted but in no case is this to be less than 1.1 times SWL.
7.4.2.6For cranes on floating docks, the vertical projection of boom is to form a specific included angle when
testing considering the need of anti-capsizing, and the angle is to be proved and approved.
7.4.2.7After the overload test, the crane is to be loaded with its safe working load and operated over its full
range of speeds in order to demonstrate satisfactory operation of crane, efficiency of overload and weightload
indicators, effectiveness of limit switches, etc.
7.4.2.8After testing, the crane is to be thoroughly examined for deformation or other defects.
7.4.3Testing of lifts and ramps
7.4.3.1Each lift is to be tested with its applied or rated load to demonstrate the satisfactory operation of the
lift and all control and safety systems.
7.4.3.2In addition, after installation and following any major repair, renewal or alteration, each lift is to be
subjected to the following tests:
(1) The brake is to hold the lift with a proof load of 1.25 times the applied or rated load;
(2) The lift is to be operated through one complete round trip with a proof load of:
passenger lifts: 1.1 times the applied or rated load;

CHAPTER 8MARKING
8.1MARKING OF LOOSE GEAR
8.1.1Every item of loose gear which has been proof tested and examined and found satisfactory in
accordance with 7.2 of Chapter 7 is to be marked by the manufacturer or the test unit and the test certificate is
to be provided.
8.1.2Marks are to include the following:
(1) the safe working load of the item, in kN;
(2) month and year in which the item is tested;
(3) the test number of the item;
(4) manufacturers stamp or the stamp of test unit.
8.1.3Marks are to be stamped at the conspicuous place of the item so as to facilitate inspection but they are
not to be stamped at the places where high stress or stress concentration takes place. The positions where marks
are stamped are to be as follows:
(1) hooks: to be marked at their broad space but not at their bends;
(2) blocks: to be marked at their straps or face plates;
(3) shackles: to be marked at their jaws adjacent to the pin holes;
(4) swivels: to be marked at the sides of their bow piece;
(5) chains: to be marked at the straight side of their end links;

For the items of loose gear of small size, should the place where marking is restrictedthe marks of number
and date may be eliminated.
8.2MARKING OF LIFTING APPLIANCES
8.2.1The lifting appliances after the completion of initial test and examination are to be stamped with
identification marks about 50 cm apart from the heel of the boom, jib or equivalent component. For the inservice lifting appliances, should alteration be made or the safe working load be modified, the new identification
marks are to be stamped as above after the completion of test and examination.
8.2.2Marks are to include the following:
(1) the safe working load, in kN;
(2) month and year in which the appliance is tested;
(3) the derrick angle to the horizontal or the jib radius during the test;
(4) the stamp of CCS survey unit.
For the typical marks for derricks, see Figure 8.2.2(a) and for cranes, see Figure 8.2.2(b).

APPENDIX 1
CRITICAL STRESS FOR VARIOUS MEMBERS SUBJECTED TO COMPRESSION
1The critical stress cr for a member subjected to axial compression as defined in 3.2.17 of the Rules may be
obtained in accordance with the following procedures.
2Table 1 gives the value of Robertson constant for various types of sections and construction of the
member subjected to compression.
3The critical stress cr can be obtained from Tables 2 to 5 in accordance with the value of Robertson constant
which is found from Table 1. Where the slenderness ratio is less than the critical slenderness So, the critical
stress cr is to be taken as the yield strength.
4The intermediate values, including those of the yield strength and slenderness ratio, can be obtained by
interpolation.
5This Appendix provides five tables attached thereafter:
Table 1Values of Robertson constant for various sections;
Table 2Values of critical stress cr, Robertson constant = 2.0;
Table 3Values of critical stress cr, Robertson constant = 3.5;
Table 4Values of critical stress cr, Robertson constant = 5.5;
Table 5Values of critical stress cr, Robertson constant = 8.0.
6Where the yield strength of materials exceeds that given in Tables 2 to 5, the critical stress cr may be
obtained from the following formulae:

Note: For thickness between 40 mm and 50 mm the value cr may be taken as the average of the value for thickness less than
40 mm and the value for thickness greater than 40 mm.
For welded plate I or H sections where it can be guaranteed that the edges of the flanges will only be flame-cut, = 3.5
may be used for buckling about the Y-Y axis for thickness of flanges up to 40 mm and, = 5.5 for thickness of flanges
over 40 mm.
Yield strength for section fabricated from plate by welding reduced by 25 MPa.
To qualify under the category rolled I or H section with welded flange cover plates the widths of the flange and the
plate are to be within the greater of 25 mm or 25 per cent of the larger width. If the smaller width is less than 25 per
cent of the larger, the category welded plate I or H section is to be applied, otherwise the category is to be taken as
rolled I section or rolled H section as appropriate.
Welded box section includes those fabricated from four plates, two angles or an I or H section and two plates but not
box sections composed of two channels or plates welded with longitudinal stiffeners.
