2. Scope & Objectives
2.1 Scope
Thisprocedureappliestoallliftingandhoistingoperations.Theliftplanningprocessdescribes
the systematic assessment of important load factors and site factors. It is as applicable to
simpleroutineliftsaswellasheavynonroutinelifts.Planninganonroutineliftrequires
considerable effort. In a lift determined to be noncritical, many of the elements can be
determined"byinspection";andthedepthinvolvedinanonroutineliftwillnotberequired.
Nevertheless,theplanningprocessmustbefollowed.
This procedure also covers all lifting equipment owned by PMS and presents the minimum
requirements of inspection; testing and certification of all Lifting Equipment owned and
operatedbyPMS.
