New guidance paper issued on achieving stable lifting operations

by admin

A new paper, ‘Guidance on Stability of Lifts’, addresses the safety and stability of heavy lifting operations in maritime environments.

Developed by the Heavy Lift Exchange Forum (HLEF) and DNV, the paper has step-by-step guidance for drafting, evaluating, and finalizing rigging plans, focusing on critical factors like centre of gravity, friction-dependent rigging points, and operational limits. It also compares stability assessment methods. Practical tools, flowcharts, and diagrams enable efficient assessment of rigging plans.
