Foreword
This document (EN 13001-1:2004) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 147 “Cranes
safety”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by June 2005, and conflicting national
standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by June 2005.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Cyprus,
Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy,
Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia,
Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and
the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EC Directive 98/37.
For relationship with EC Directive 98/37, see informative annex ZA, which is an integral part of this
document.
Annex A is informative.
This European Standard is one Part of EN 13001. The other parts are as follows:
Part 1: General Principles and requirements
Part 2: Load actions
Part 3.1: Limit states and proof of competence of steel structures
Part 3.2: Limit states and proof of competence of rope reeving components
Part 3.3: Limit states and proof of competence of wheel/rail contacts
Part 3.4: Limit states and proof of competence of machinery
Introduction
This European Standard has been prepared to be a harmonized standard to provide one means for
the mechanical design and theoretical verification of cranes to conform with the essential health and
safety requirements of the Machinery Directive, as amended. This standard also establishes
interfaces between the user (purchaser) and the designer, as well as between the designer and the
component manufacturer, in order to form a basis for selecting cranes and components.
This European Standard is a type C standard as stated in EN 1070.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards are covered are indicated in the scope of
this standard.
When provisions of this type C standard are different from those, which are stated in type A or B
standards, the provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other
standards, for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C
standard.
1 Scope
This European Standard is to be used together with Part 2 and Part 3, and as such, they specify
general conditions, requirements and methods to prevent mechanical hazards of cranes by design
and theoretical verification. Part 3 is only at pre-drafting stage; the use of Parts 1 and 2 is not
conditional to the publication of Part 3.
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) rigid body instability of the crane or its parts (tilting, shifting);
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 European Standard is applicable to cranes which are manufactured after the date of approval by
CEN of this standard and serves as reference base for the European Standards for particular crane
types.
2 Normative references
This European Standard incorporates, by dated or undated reference, provisions from other
publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the
publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any
of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or
revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies (including
amendments).
