Load Test for 3T EOT Crane:

 The entire Inspection of Electric Overhead Travelling Crane was carried out as per ISO
Standard for EOT Cranes, ISO – 3177:1 999.

 Load Hook Block inspections were conducted as per ISO 9927-1 and ISO-4309 for wire
rope inspection. ( Refer Figure No.1 (i) & (ii))

 Load tested = 3T= 1.2T (Refer Figure No.2)

Result

 The 3T crane was found satisfactory during the load test. The load test was carried out at
30% of its rated capacity (As per the O&M Coordination Meeting dated 06.06.2019 (Point
No.7.3)). Therefore, the crane is safe to lift the load up to the tested load. However, if the
hoists are required to handle more than the tested loads, the hoists will have to be tested
as per the required load to ascertain their capacities.

 Deflection couldn’t be tested due to unavailability of rated capacity load at site.

Recommendation

 Timely inspection of overall EOT Cranes should be carried out by the crane operator.

 Timely check the gear and brake oil level/colour is necessary. Oil sampling/testing to be

carried out as per the requirement.

 To maintain daily based record of total load lifted by EOT crane in hours/day to record the

safe working period (SWP).

 To carry out Non- Destructive Testing on Load hook blocks

 To arrange proper dead load for next inspection.
