The Standard specifies the general requirements for cranes. The Standard includes the design of cranes by the traditional working stress method and also allows design by the limit states design method. The partial load factors necessary for crane design by the limit states method have not been provided. Major technical changes include revisions towards harmonization with ISO Standards, development of crane loads, crane structure, stability, electrical and controls including automatic controls, radio controls and infra-red control. The Appendices have also been revised.

This Standard specifies the general requirements for cranes (including hoists and winches), as defined in AS 2549, and appliances intended to carry out similar functions. In recognition of the publication of AS 4100, the limit states design method has been included in this Standard along with the traditional working stress design method to AS 3990. The partial load factors referenced in Clauses 4.9.2.3 and 7.9.2.3 for limit states design have not been given as these have not yet been provided for in any internationally recognized crane Standard. Where the limit states design method is used, cranes shall be designed to give a degree of safety not less than that given in this Standard for the working stress design method for strength, buckling, deflection, torsion, fatigue and the like.NOTES:1 Specific requirements for particular types of cranes are specified in other Parts of AS 1418; these requirements take precedence over corresponding requirements in this Standard where any difference exists.2 Requirements for the selection and operation of some types of cranes are given in AS 2550.3 A chart showing the structure of the Crane Code and its parts is given in Appendix A.
