European foreword

This document (prEN 12158-1:2020) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 10 “Lifts,

escalators and moving walks”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 12158-1:2000+A1:2010.

In comparison with the previous edition, the following technical modifications have been made:

a) static calculations;
b) out of service wind;
c) safety requirements for platform locking;
d) requirements for platform inclination on twin-masted units;
e) integration of performance levels according to EN ISO 13849-1:2015;
f) monitoring of the inadvertent brake release.

This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the

European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).

Introduction

This document is one of a series of standards produced by CEN/TC 10/SC 1 “Building hoists” as part of

the CEN programme of work to produce machinery safety standards.

The document is a type-C standard relating to safety for builder’s hoists for goods.

This document is a type-C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100:2010.

This document is of relevance, in particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the market

players with regard to machinery safety:
a) machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);

b) health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organizations, market surveillance, etc.).

Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the

above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
c) machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);

d) machine users/employees (e.g. trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);

e) service providers, e.g. for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);

f) consumers (in case of machinery intended for use by consumers).

The above-mentioned stakeholder groups have been given the possibility to participate at the drafting

process of this document.

The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events are

covered are indicated in the scope of this document. In addition, machinery shall comply as appropriate

with EN ISO 12100:2010 for hazards which are not covered by this document.

When provisions of this type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or -

B standards, 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.

4 Safety requirements and/or measures
4.1 General
4.1.1 Design considerations

The design of the hoist shall consider safe use, erection, dismantling and maintenance. It shall be possible

to erect the hoist using safe access methods such as those offered by the platform or equivalent facilities.

The design of all components that have to be handled during erection, e.g. mast sections, shall have their

weight assessed against manual handling. Where the permissible weight for manual handling is exceeded,

the manufacturer shall make available suitable lifting equipment. All removable and detachable covers

shall be retained by captive fastenings.

Builders' hoists for goods shall comply with the safety requirements and/or protective measures of this

clause. In addition, the machine shall be designed according to the principles of EN ISO 12100:2010 for

relevant, but not significant hazards, which are not dealt with by this document (e.g. sharp edges).

4.1.2 Proof calculation

The objective of this calculation is to prove theoretically that a hoist, taking into account the service

conditions agreed between the user, designer and/or manufacturer, as well as the states during erection,

dismantling and transport, has been designed in conformance to the safety requirements to prevent

mechanical hazards.

The proof of competence according to this standard shall be carried out by using the general principles

and methods appropriate for this purpose and corresponding with the recognized state of the art in

mechanical design. For guidance governing analysis of structural members and their connections (e.g.

fatigue, welding, bolts), EN 13001-3-1:2012+A2:2018 is recommended. For aluminium, consider

EN 1999-1-1:2007/A2:2013.

Alternatively, advanced and recognized theoretical or experimental methods may be used in general,

provided that they conform to the principles of this document.
4.1.3 Load combinations

Loads shall be superimposed in such a way that the resulting load effects attain their instantaneous

extreme values for the considered situation of use. Such superimpositions are called load combinations.

Basic load combinations are given in 4.2.

When establishing load combinations, consideration shall be given to the use of the hoist, taking into

account its control systems, its normative instructions for use and any other inherent conditions, where

they relate to the spec
