PUBLISH DATE 2019
PAGES 46
BSI BS 7121-7:2019

This part of BS 7121 gives recommendations for the safe use of the following general‑purpose crane types:

  1. top-running bridge crane;

  2. under-slung bridge crane;

  3. gantry crane:

    1. portal; and

    2. semi-portal;

  4. light crane systems.

For the purposes of this part of BS 7121 bridge cranes, gantry cranes and light crane systems are all included under the term “cranes”. This part of BS 7121 is intended to be used in conjunction with BS 7121‑1, which gives general recommendations for all types of cranes, and BS 7121-2 (all parts), which gives general guidance on inspection, testing and examination of all types of cranes.

It does not cover:

  1. cranes permanently equipped with specialized load-lifting attachments, for example container cranes, ladle cranes and cranes equipped with vacuum or magnetic lifters;

  2. cranes for special environments such as those for use in explosive atmospheres;

  3. cranes covered by other parts of BS 7121;

  4. cranes permanently installed on marine and other water-borne vessels;

  5. any equipment used to move loads horizontally by way of winching or hauling; or

  6. rubber-tyred gantry cranes (covered in BS 7121‑2‑9).
