Disclosure to Promote the Right To Information

Whereas the Parliament of India has set out to provide a practical regime of right to
information for citizens to secure access to information under the control of public authorities,
in order to promote transparency and accountability in the working of every public authority,
and whereas the attached publication of the Bureau of Indian Standards is of particular interest
to the public, particularly disadvantaged communities and those engaged in the pursuit of
education and knowledge, the attached public safety standard is made available to promote the
timely dissemination of this information in an accurate manner to the public.

NATIONAL FOREWORD
This Indian Standard which is identical with IS0 8686-51992 Cranes - Design principles for loads
and load combinations - Part 5 : Overhead travelling and portal bridge cranes, issued by International Organization for Standardization (ISO), was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on
the-recommendations of the Cranes, Lifting Chains and Its Related Equipment Sectional Committee
and approval of the Heavy Mechanical Engineering~Division Council.
This standard is being published in five parts. Other parts of this standard are as follows:
Part 1

General

Part 2

Mobile cranes

Part 3

Tower cranes

Part 4

Jib cranes

The text of IS0 standard has been approved for~publication as Indian Standard without deviations,
Certain terminology and conventions are, however, not identical to those used in Indian Standards.
Attention is particularly drawn to the following:
a) Wherever the words International Standards appear referring to this standard, they should
be read as Indian Standard.
b) Comma(,) has been used as a decimal marker while in Indian Standards, the current practice
is to use full stop(.) as a decimal marker.
In this adopted standard, reference appears to certain International Standards for which Indian
Standards also exist. The corresponding Indian Standards which are to be substituted in their place
are listed below along with their degree of~equivalence for the editions indicated:

The concerned technical committee has reviewed the provisions of IS0 4302 : 1981, IS0 4310 : 1981
and IS0 8306 : 1985 referied in this adopted standard and has decided that they are acceptable
for use in conjunction with this standard.
In reporting the results of a test or analysis made inaccordance with this standard, if the final value,
observed or calculated, is to be rounded off, it shall be done in accordance with IS 2 : 1960 Rules
for rounding off numerical values (revised).
