Establishes a general classification of cranes based on the number of operating cycles to be carried out during the expected life of the crane and a load spectrum factor which represents a nominal state of loading. Classification considers only the operating conditions which are independent of the type of crane and the way it is driven.

Additional information for the user:

This version uses the time - based classification method. If you need to use the cycle - based classification method please use the 2016 version.
