Lifting platforms - Mast climbing work platforms
This standard specifies the special safety requirements for Mast Climbing Work Platforms (MCWP) which are temporarily installed and are manually or power operated and which are designed to be used by one or more persons from which to carry out work. The vertical moving components (work platform) are also used to move those same persons and their equipment and materials to and from a single boarding point. These restrictions differentiate MCWPs from Builder's hoists. The standard can also be used for permanently installed MCWP. This standard is applicable to work platforms elevated by rack and pinion and guided by and moving along their supporting masts, where the masts may or may not require lateral restraint from separate supporting structures. This standard is applicable to any combination of the following alternatives: One or more masts; Mast tied or untied; Mast of fixed or variable length; Masts vertical or inclined between 0° and 30° to the vertical; Masts which are standing or hanging; Movable or static base (chassis, or base frame); Manually or power operated elevation; Towed or self powered ground travel on site, excluding road traffic regulation requirements; Driven using electric, pneumatic or hydraulic motors. This standard identifies the hazards arising during the various phases in the life of such equipment and describes methods for the elimination or reduction of these hazards and for the use of safe working practices.

Dvižne ploščadi - Delovne ploščadi, ki se vzpenjajo ob jamboru
Ta standard določa posebne varnostne zahteve za delovne ploščadi, ki se vzpenjajo ob jamboru (MCWP), ki so nameščene začasno in so vodene ročno ali gnano in so načrtovane, da jih uporablja ena ali več oseb, ki izvajajo delo. Sestavni deli, ki se gibljejo navpično (delovne ploščadi), se uporabljajo tudi za premik teh istih oseb ter njihove opreme in materialov na ali z ene točke vkrcanja. Te omejitve razlikujejo MCWP od gradbenih dvigal. Ta standard se prav tako lahko uporabi za stalno nameščene MCWP. Ta standard velja za delovne ploščadi, ki so zvišane s podstavkom in zobnikom ter so vodene in se gibljejo vzdolž svojih podpornih jamborov, kjer jambori lahko ali ne potrebujejo bočne omejitve iz ločenih podpornih objektov. Ta standard velja za vse kombinacije naslednjih možnosti: en ali več jamborov; vezan ali nevezan jambor; jambor fiksne ali spremenljive dolžine; navpičen ali nagnjen jambor med 0° in 30° glede na vertikalo; jambori ki stojijo ali visijo; premikajoča ali statična baza (podvozje ali nosilni okvir); ročno ali gnano vodenje dviga; vlečeno ali samo gnano kopensko gibanje na delovišču, razen predpisanih zahtev za cestni promet; gnano z uporabo električnih, pnevmatičnih ali hidravličnih motorjev. Ta standard opredeljuje nevarnosti, ki nastanejo med različnimi fazami življenjske dobe take opreme in predpisuje metode za odpravo ali zmanjšanje teh nevarnosti in za uporabo varnih delovnih postopkov.

EN 1495:1997+A2:2009 (E) 4 Introduction This standard is one of a series of standards produced by CEN/TC 98 as part of the CEN/CENELEC programme of work to produce machinery safety standards. EN 414 (Safety of machinery – Rules for the drafting and presentation of safety standards) has been used as a guide in the preparation of this standard. This standard has been prepared to be a harmonized standard to provide one means of conforming with the essential safety requirements of the Machinery Directive. The extent to which hazards are covered is indicated in the scope of this standard. In addition, lifting equipment shall comply as appropriate with !EN ISO 12100" for hazards which are not covered by this standard. 1 Scope 1.1 This standard specifies the special safety requirements for Mast Climbing Work Platforms (MCWP) which are temporarily installed and are manually or power operated and which are designed to be used by one or more persons from which to carry out work. The vertical moving components (work platform) are also used to move those same persons and their equipment and materials to and from a single boarding point. These restrictions differentiate MCWPs from Builder's hoists. The standard can also be used for permanently installed MCWP. 1.2 This standard is applicable to work platforms elevated by rack and pinion and guided by and moving along their supporting masts, where the masts may or may not require lateral restraint from separate supporting structures. 1.3 This standard is applicable to any combination of the following alternatives: One or more masts; Mast tied or untied; Mast of fixed or variable length; Masts vertical or inclined between 0° and 30° to the vertical; Masts which are standing or hanging; Movable or static base (chassis, or base frame); Manually or power operated elevation; Towed or self powered ground travel on site, excluding road traffic regulation requirements; Driven using electric, pneumatic or hydraulic motors. 1.4 This standard identifies the hazards arising during the various phases in the life of such equipment and describes methods for the elimination or reduction of these hazards and for the use of safe working practices.

5 Safety requirements and/or measures 5.1 Structural and stability calculations 5.1.1 General 5.1.1.1 All loads and forces which can occur in any allowed configuration during erection, operation, out-of-service, dismantling and transfer shall be considered. This shall also include inclined or hanging masts. 5.1.1.2 The manufacturer shall be responsible for: Stability calculations, in order to identify the various configurations of the MCWP and the combinations of loads and deflections, which together create conditions of instability; Structural calculations, to evaluate the individual forces and to make allowance for deflections. All combinations of forces shall be considered including those which produce the most unfavourable stresses in the components. 5.1.2 Loads and forces The following loads and forces shall be taken into account: 5.1.2.1 Structural loads The masses of the components of the MCWP when they are not moving are considered to be static structural loads. The masses of the components of the MCWP when they are moving are considered to be dynamic structural loads. SIST EN 1495:1999+A2:2010
EN 1495:1997+A2:2009 (E) 16 5.1.2.2 Rated load 5.1.2.2.1 The rated load for design purposes is: m = (n × mp) + T + (2 x me) where m = rated load (kg)
mp = 80 kg; mass of each person
me = 40 kg; mass of personal equipment (for the first two persons only)
T = mass (kg) of material and equipment on the work platform (excluding personal equipment)
n = number of persons on the work platform The mass of persons and the mass of equipment and material shall act simultaneously. The minimum number of persons shall be: Two (2) for single mast platforms and four (4) for multiple mast platforms. The mass of the personal equipment (me) shall be assumed to act on the point coincident with each of the two persons which give the highest stresses. 5.1.2.2.2 The mass of each person is assumed to act as a point load on the MCWP at a horizontal distance 0,1 m from the upper inside edge of the top guard rail. The distance between the point loads shall be 0,5 m (see figure 3 as an example). 5.1.2.2.3 The mass T shall be evenly distributed over the whole area of the main platform giving a specific load per length t. The centre of gravity of the mass T shall be assumed to act on a point 0,15 B (where B is the width of the main platform) away from the longitudinal centre line of the main platform, on the side giving the highest stresses.
See figure 4. Calculations must allow for the possibility that a reduced load giving an unbalanced loadcase may result in higher stresses in some parts of the MCWP than a balanced rated load case would give. For single mast machines the bending moment, M, on masts and platforms shall be calculated according to formula 1, where Lmax is the greater of the distances L1 and L2 in figure 5. For multiple mast machines the bending moment M, on masts and platforms shall be calculated according to formulas 2, 3, 4 and figure 6. The factors 1,15 and 1,2 are used in the formulas 1, 2, 3, 4 in order to cover the situations in use where, instead of a uniformly distributed load, a concentration of the same load is placed elsewhere within that individual length.

In no such case shall the load on the extension be calculated for less than two persons (mp) carrying their personal equipment (me). In order to restrict the available platform extension area, such extensions shall not be more than 0,6 m wide. See Figure 7. ˜ Dimensions in metres
