Lifting Operations

Derrick Introduction
• Portable lifting equipment (fixed to structure)• Specific methodology required • Relatively compact structure• Temporary in nature• Multi fitments and designs• Climbing competence key• Structural knowledge key• Experience at ever level is key
www.matsgroup.info
What makes using a Derrick a unique lifting operation:
- No common process of controls in place for lifting- The complexity of the lift and control required differed across the industry with no
standards or guidance to support- No designated or recognised training courses for the specific use of Derricks- No single specific standard to control the manufacture of equipment- No common way to quantify skills/experience of using the equipment or standard to
refer to making supplier approval difficult.
Gap Analysis
www.matsgroup.info
The Mast and Towers Safety Group recognised the lack of industry guidance for this equipment.
In response the following actions were taken:
• Working practices reviewed via specialist suppliers who use Derricks
• Gap analysis of working practices compiled
• Working group of industry experts assembled (manufacturers & deployment specialists) to assess the gaps and look at a control framework
• Framework in the form of industry guidance implemented.

Maintenance
Planning and Lifting
• Complex lifting operations requiring lifting plan and competence throughout
• Structural review required of the structure before works and with equipment in place to assess stress loadings
Competence
• Competence chart for training and training needs throughout all roles assessed and developed
• Experience requirements defined through equipment usage and deployment
Manufacture and Maintenance
• Equipment designed and manufactured by competent organisations to BS/EN standards (fabrication)
• Maintenance regime required including thorough examination
• Information to be provided with equipment for use, limitations and versatility
Setting Standards
