POLE LIFTING AND INSTALLATION PROCEDURES

PURPOSE

To outline the requirements for managing and controlling lifting and rigging
operations during activities “Erection of 60ft Light Post Project”.

To provide guidance during the assessment of each equipment lifting operation, and
to aid us in the safe execution of our contract obligations.

SCOPE

The scope of this literature is applicable all operations involving the use of Cranes,
Lifting Gears, Hoists, Fork Lifts and Telescopic Material Handlers. For lifts that are
programmed to go over live process areas, in the vicinity of other potentially
hazardous areas and passing overhead or nearby members of the public, these
requirements need to be reviewed, assessed and planned for applicability.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Site Manager
To ensure that all lifting operations are adequately planned and executed and that all
lifting equipment used on site is certified and conforms to this procedure.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
For the purposes of assessing the handling equipment required, the weight of the
individual components identified as being capable of being handled as a unit, have
been considered. Each identifiable component should be listed with its
corresponding unit weight and the model of construction upon charges in machinery
or equipment dimension and weights or when any charges are met in the attached
classification list.

The manufacturer’s specifications and limitations applicable to the operation of any

and all cranes and derricks shall be complied with their specifications.

Rated load capacities, recommended operating speeds, special hazard warnings, or

instructions must be visible to the operator while he is at the control station. All lifting
and rigging equipment such as cranes, slings, ‘D’ shackles, hooks, etc. shall be
certified by HSE at least for 6 months and all relevant certificates shall be copied to
the HSE department.

Rigging equipment must be inspected by HSE every 3 months, also operator should
check the equipments prior to use on each lifting operation and as necessary during
its use to ensure that it is safe.

Defective rigging equipment must be tagged out of service and removed from the
site. Contractor lifting supervisor and HSE Manager shall make a thorough, monthly
inspection of the hoisting machinery. The operator shall maintain a record of the
dates and results of inspections for each hoisting machine and piece of equipment.

Standard operating signals should be agreed upon and should be used to direct all
operations.

No modifications or additions, which affect the capacity or safe operation of the

equipment, shall be made without the manufacturer’s written approval.

Accessible areas within the swing radius of the rear of the rotating superstructure of
the crane must be barricaded to prevent any personnel from being struck or crushed
by the crane.

All cranes and lifting appliances shall be plainly marked on each side of the
appliance as to its rated load capacity.

The following restrictions during lifting operations shall be observed:

 Personnel shall not ride on the hook or load.
 Personnel shall not stand, walk or crawl beneath a slung load.
 The hoist rope shall be in a vertical position when tensioned to prevent
swinging of the load.
 The twisting or kinking of the wire rope shall be avoided.
