Overview
ISO 2374:1983 is an international standard published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that establishes the recommended range of maximum lifting capacities for basic models of cranes. Covering capacities from 0.1 tonne to 1,000 tonnes, this standard applies universally to all types of cranes and lifting appliances. It aims to provide consistency in the classification and rating of crane lifting capacities across various industries and countries.
The standard was developed by ISO Technical Committee ISO/TC 96, which specializes in cranes, lifting appliances, and related equipment. It was approved by member bodies of numerous countries, ensuring broad international acceptance and relevance.
Key Topics
Maximum Capacity (Safe Working Load)
The maximum load that a lifting appliance is designed to safely suspend. This is based on design calculations and applies to specific crane types and conditions. Different nomenclatures such as lifting capacity and safe working load are synonymous but “maximum capacity” is preferred.Basic Model Definition
The basic model refers to the primary version of a lifting appliance. This version serves as the foundation for various modifications involving changes in jib length, running gear type, rope systems, and more, while retaining the same fundamental design capacity.Range of Capacities
The standard lists recommended maximum capacities organized within ranges from 0.1 t to 1,000 t. These values are intended to help manufacturers and users standardize crane designations and compare equipment effectively.Application to All Crane Types
ISO 2374:1983 applies to all crane types irrespective of their configurations, ensuring a harmonized approach across the crane manufacturing and operational spectrum.
Applications
ISO 2374:1983 is essential for various stakeholders involved in crane design, manufacturing, procurement, and operation, including:
- Manufacturers benefit by adhering to an internationally recognized capacity range, facilitating design consistency, and easing product classification.
- Purchasers and Operators can use the standard to select suitable cranes with reliable, standardized maximum capacities ensuring safety and compatibility with operational requirements.
- Regulatory Bodies and Safety Inspectors apply the standard to verify compliance with safe lifting limits and contribute to workplace safety enforcement.
- Engineering and Design Teams rely on ISO 2374 to guide the development of crane variants and adaptations based on a solid foundation model.
Related Standards
- ISO 9927 – Inspection, maintenance, and operation of cranes
- ISO 8686 – Calculation of load capacities for cranes
- ISO 4301 – Classification of cranes
- ISO 12480 – Crane operator training and qualification
Each of these standards complements ISO 2374 by addressing specific aspects of crane safety, design, testing, and operation, giving a comprehensive framework for crane industry best practices.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of
national Standards bodies (ISO member bedies). The work of developing International
Standards is carried out through ISO technical committees. Every member body
interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been authorized has the
right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to
the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by
the ISO Council.
International Standard 2374 was developed by Technical Committee ISO/TC 96,
Cranes, lifting appliances and related eguipment, and was circulated to the member
bodies in February 1983.
