Drilling and Foundation Equipment - Safety - Part 1: Common Requirements
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 16228-1/A1 standard sets out the general safety requirements for drilling and foundation equipment. The standard is applicable to all types of drilling and foundation equipment and covers the various hazards associated with their use.
The standard addresses the safety aspects of drilling and foundation equipment in different contexts, including during transport, while in service or out of service, during maintenance, when moving on-site, during storage, and even when disabling or scrapping the equipment.
The aim of this standard is to ensure that drilling and foundation equipment is used safely and in accordance with the intentions of the manufacturer, while also taking into account any foreseeable misuse of the equipment. This document provides important guidelines and requirements to minimize risks and promote the safety of operators and other personnel involved in the use and maintenance of drilling and foundation equipment.
Compliance with this standard is crucial for manufacturers, operators, and owners of drilling and foundation equipment to ensure the safety of all workers and to minimize the potential for accidents or incidents in various scenarios associated with the use of such equipment.
