This European Standard applies to bridge and gantry cranes mounted in a fixed position or free to travel by wheels on rails, runways or roadway surfaces.This European Standard is not applicable to non-fixed load lifting attachments, erection and dismantling operations, runways and supporting structures nor does it cover additional loads due to the mounting of cranes on a floating or tilting base.This European Standard specifies requirements for all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to bridge and gantry cranes when used as intended and under conditions foreseen by the manufacturer (see Clause 4).This European Standard does not include requirements for the lifting of persons. The specific hazards due to potentially explosive atmospheres, ionising radiation and operation in electromagnetic fields beyond the range of EN 61000-6-2 are not covered byThis European Standard.This European Standard is applicable to bridge and gantry cranes manufactured after the date of its publication as an EN.
