Title
Safety Requirements, Definitions And Specifications For Digger Derrick
Standard Number
A10.31
Latest Revision
2019
Description
This standard applies to special multipurpose vehicle-mounted machines, commonly known as digger derricks. These machines are primarily designed to accommodate components that dig holes and/or set poles and position materials and apparatus. Note: Depending on their use, digger derricks may be defined as a crane by government regulations, and operator’s certification may be required.
These standards produced by the American Society of Safety Professionals are a useful resource when, in this instance, we do not have good guidance from the ASME B30 series.
