The scope of this SAE Information Report is limited to a lift crane mounted on a fixed or floating platform, lifting loads from a vessel alongside. The size of the vessel is assumed not to exceed that of a workboat as defined in 4.15. The purpose of this document is to establish the design dynamic loads, the calculation procedures for rated loads, and a load-rating chart format for lift cranes operating in a variety of sea conditions.
