Lifting Inserts and Lifting Systems for Precast Concrete Elements - Principles, Design, Applications - Production and Placing on the Market
Also Known As:
The VDI/BV-BS 6205 Part 2 standard provides guidelines for the production, design, and placement on the market of lifting inserts and lifting systems used for precast concrete elements. The standard covers the manufacturer's responsibilities and is based on the European Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
The standard outlines principles and requirements for lifting inserts and systems, starting from the conceptual design phase and ending with the documentation of technical data in the operation instructions. It also includes provisions for determining the resistances and provides test and assessment procedures to ensure a uniform safety level.
It is important to note that this standard does not override any other national or European regulations and specifications that ensure an equal or higher level of safety. The standard applies to all lifting inserts and systems, regardless of whether they were developed for a specific application or produced in series. However, it does not cover the repeated use of lifting inserts for different applications or permanent use.
