List Control measures to eliminate risk factors that could affect any aspect of the lift
Strength and stability
-
Ground conditions must be suitable and sufficient and remain so during lifting operations. Include details of the ground conditions and any additional works required to the ground, including spreader mats specification and any testing regime required (for example, CBR tests). A temporary works design must be in place and checked off before any lifting operation or crane set-up takes place
