Crane safety - General design - Part 2: Load actions

This European Standard specifies load actions to be used together with the standard EN 13001 1 and EN 13001 3, and as such they specify conditions and requirements on design to prevent mechanical hazards of cranes, and a method of verification of those requirements.
NOTE   Specific requirements for particular types of crane are given in the appropriate European Standard for the particular crane type.
The following is a list of significant hazardous situations and hazardous events that could result in risks to persons during normal use and foreseeable misuse. Clause 4 of this standard is necessary to reduce or eliminate the risks associated with the following hazards:
a) Instability of the crane or its parts (tilting).
b) Exceeding the limits of strength (yield, ultimate, fatigue).
c) Elastic instability of the crane or its parts (buckling, bulging).
d) Exceeding temperature limits of material or components.
e) Exceeding the deformation limits.
This document is not applicable to cranes that are manufactured before the date of its publication as EN.

Varnost žerjava - Konstrukcija, splošno - 2. del: Učinki obremenitev

Standard EN 13001-2 določa ukrepe za obremenitve, ki jih je treba uporabiti skupaj s standardoma EN 13001-1 in EN 13001-3. Ti standardi določajo pogoje in zahteve za načrtovanje žerjavov z namenom preprečevanja mehanskih nevarnosti žerjavov ter podajajo metodo za preverjanje izpolnjevanja teh zahtev. OPOMBA Posebne zahteve za posamezne vrste žerjavov so navedene v ustreznem evropskem standardu za posamezne vrste žerjavov. Spodaj je naveden seznam pomembnih nevarnih razmer in dogodkov, zaradi katerih bi lahko prišlo do ogroženosti oseb med običajno uporabo in predvideno nepravilno uporabo. Točka 4 v tem standardu je potrebna za omejitev ali odpravo tveganj, povezanih z naslednjimi nevarnostmi: a) Nestabilnost žerjava ali njegovih delov (naklon). b) Prekoračitev mej trdnosti (meja prožnosti, končna meja, meja utrujanja). c) Elastična nestabilnost žerjava ali njegovih delov (uklon, izbočenost). d) Prekoračitev temperaturnih omejitev materiala ali sestavnih delov. e) Prekoračitev mej deformacije. Ta dokument se ne uporablja za žerjave, ki so bili izdelani, preden je bil objavljen kot standard EN.
