  • @LiftingandRigging

    Hi Greg, great question. This is a tricky one to answer as the government may have different instructions compared to ASME. I reached out to Brandy Cooper who works in Government Sales for Mazzella. This is what they had to say. "There are many manuals, specifications and drawings for handling explosives and weapons. The government instructions sometimes supersede ASME and other times refer to it as the governing requirement - It can be quite tricky. Typically explosives are going to have unique gear designed for the item being lifted and will have a drawing which details the test loads and test configuration. Below are the main manuals/references and they will often refer to the appropriate test instruction that should be used for each item. • Approved Handling Equipment for Weapons and Explosives, NAVSEA OP 2173 • Ammunition Afloat, NAVSEA OP 4 • Ammunition and Explosives Ashore, Safety Regulations for Handling, Storing, Production, Renovation, and Shipping, NAVSEA OP 5 Additional references…. • NAVSEA SG420-AP-MMA-010 - Periodic Testing Arrangements for Ordnance Handling Equipment • NAVAIR 17-1-127 - Periodic Proof load Testing of Weapons Support Equipment W/IPB • TB-43-0142 - Safety Inspection and Testing of Lifting Devices • NAVSEA OP 4098 - Handling Ammunition, Explosives and Hazardous Material with Industrial Materials Handling Equipment • NAVSEA OP 3347 - Ordnance Safety Precautions, U.S. Navy • NAVORD OP 4 - Ammunition and Explosive Safety Afloat Hope this helps - let me know if you need additional information."

    Is a bridle another kind of hitch

  • @LiftingandRigging

    @LiftingandRigging

    8 ай бұрын

    Good question. The answer is no. A "hitch" refers to how the sling attaches to the load it is picking up. I.E. - basket hitch or choker hitch A "bridle" simply refers to having multiple sling legs from a single point. I.E. - a 4--leg wire rope sling bridle, where those 4-legs connect to a single master ring.

    What "ton" is used for lifting equipments? short ton ou metric ton?

  • @LiftingandRigging

    @LiftingandRigging

    Жыл бұрын

    Great question! A lowercase t means the WLL is measured in Metric tons (tonnes) which equals approximately 2,205 pounds, while a capital T means the WLL is measured in short tons equaling 2,000 pounds. So you need to pay attention to which "ton" your manufacturer is using. We have a video covering this topic coming up soon. So stay tuned.

    all i can say is where i work the rules and the safety enforcement are very strict as they should be, the problem is this site is huge. and it so happens to be my place of work is on the outer fringes of it. and boy can i say almost none of these rules are adhered to. everything that was thought to me, i saw all these things immediately violated.
