What Is a Dynamic Load?

Описание: The definition of “dynamic loads” is any load that changes over time. If that time period is very short, it could be defined as a shock load. Shock loading can occur in any situation where the load on the crane and/or rigging suddenly increases.

Intense shock loading can create stresses on the crane and rigging equipment many times the static weight of the load and is one of the most unpredictable causes of catastrophic failure.

Some dynamic loads can create a lot of stress on the slings, regardless of the material they are made from or the weight of the load. There could be a lot of concern about breakage or failure.

Slings and other lifting and rigging equipment are designed to take up the weight of the load gradually and steadily. They work best with controlled, static loads. That is the safest way to lift.

Knowing that you are working with dynamic loads, you must be vigilant with your inspections and inspection criteria. Have a procedure or plan in place for inspecting your equipment regularly and often. If there is a danger of shock loading, look for an alternative lift plan.
