CRANE TEST 8

The weight of the stowed jib used in the load calculation: - Effective weight. A crane's rated capacity is based upon: - Structural and stability. When lifting a suspended personnel platform with two or more legs the safety factor for the rigging hardware is: - 5 times the intended load. If using cranes of different rated capacities, the crane with the larger rated capacity: - Should be hooked a distance closer to the loads center of gravity. Hoist ropes that are not rotation resistant must have a design factor of: - 3.5 to 1. Backward stability on a R/T crane could be a problem when the crane is working: - Over the side at a minimum radius. It is important to inspect rotation resistant wire rope more frequently because: - Internal damage will occur more frequently. It is important to know when lubricating wire rope that the lubricant must: - Not hinder visual inspection. Breaking strength divided by the design factor is the - working load limit If determining boom tip elevation is important the best way to determine this is to: - use range diagram or LMI When determining what position to dog the machine overnight and high winds are expected: - follow the manufacturer's recommendations
