Cranes - Access

This European Standard specifies design requirements for non-powered access installed on cranes. This European Standard covers access to control stations and all access required for maintenance, certain erection and dismantling operations (see below) and emergency. For those cranes which are intended to be erected and dismantled at their places of work, specific requirements for the access needed during these operations are given in the appropriate European Standards for specific crane types.

EN 13586:2004+A1:2008 (E) 4 Introduction This European Standard is a harmonised standard to provide one means for access on cranes to conform with the relevant Essential Health and Safety Requirements of the Machinery Directive 98/37/EC. This European Standard is a type C standard as stated in EN 1070. The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events 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 B standard, 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.



EN 13586:2004+A1:2008 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies design requirements for non-powered access installed on cranes.
NOTE 1 For other type of access a requirement for information to be supplied is specified. This European Standard covers access to control stations and all access required for maintenance, certain erection and dismantling operations (see below) and emergency. For those cranes which are intended to be erected and dismantled at their places of work, specific requirements for the access needed during these operations are given in the appropriate European Standards for specific crane types. NOTE 2 Specific requirements for access on particular types of crane are given in the appropriate European Standard for the particular crane type. The dimensions given in this European Standard do not take into account the safety distances related to:  guarding;  relative movement between crane and adjacent structure;  hazardous surface temperature;  electrical equipment. The significant hazards covered by this European Standard are identified in clause 4. This European Standard is not applicable to cranes which are manufactured before the date of publication by CEN of this standard. 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.

Key 1 Rung ladder 2 Stepped ladder 3 Should be avoided 4 Stairs 5 Should be avoided 6 Inclined walkway 7 Walkway 8 Not permitted zone Figure 1 — Ranges of angle for different means of access in their working position Provision of access should be in the preferential order: stair, rung ladder, stepped ladder. Furthermore, fixed means (e.g. hoop guard, side protection) shall be preferred to personnel protective equipment. When the height that the operator has to climb from the point of access on the crane to the control station is more than 25 m, a powered access system should be provided. If a powered access system is provided, the crane shall be designed to receive it. In this case, a complementary mean of access of type 1 shall also be provided. 6.1.2 Selection of the type of access The selection of the type of access shall be as follows: • access to control station and starting equipment: type 1 access; • access for maintenance period more frequent than one per month : type 1 access; In the following cases type 2 access may be used: • access for maintenance period less frequent than one per month. In this case, the access shall be designed for use without personal protective device against falls from height; • access for erection and dismantling



EN 13586:2004+A1:2008 (E) 11 6.2 General 6.2.1 Provisions shall be made on every access to provide simultaneous three point support (Two hands and one foot, or two feet and one hand). 6.2.2 Where lateral body movement is necessary from a rung of a ladder to another support surface, the distance between the step or rung and the nearest edge of the support surface shall be within a spherical radius of 0,3 m maximum (see Figure 2).
Key R Spherical radius SS Support surface Figure 2 — Distance between a step or rung and the nearest edge of any support surface 6.2.3 Means of access, walking and standing areas shall: a) have their working position(s) designated; (for example platform on articulated boom needs defined position of the boom for the access); b) take into account the number of the persons, and the presence of objects such as tools and spare parts; c) be constructed of materials specified as being incombustible and with slip resistant surfaces (see annex B) which do not retain liquid. 6.2.4 Every control station shall have at least one exit onto a fixed means of access. An alternative means of egress shall be provided when the fixed means of access cannot be reached from all working positions of the control station or of the crane. 6.2.5 Any aperture in the floor of a gangway, inclined walkway, landing or platform situated above an area where persons could be present shall have slots or interstices which: a) do not allow a sphere of 20 mm to pass through; b) have a maximum width of 12 mm when the length is equal or greater than 200 mm. 6.2.6 Hand supports shall have smooth surfaces. Edges shall have radii (minimum 2 mm) or be chamfered (minimum 2 x 2 mm). Rung ends to retain the hands or feet shall be provided at the ends of handholds and footholds. 6.2.7 When access is foreseen with portable ladders, permanent means shall be provided to prevent the head of the ladder from moving. Those ladders shall meet the requirements of this standard for ladders.
