ISO 10972-1:2025

This document establishes requirements for mechanisms and related components of cranes as described in ISO 4306 series, concerning:

a)       general layout and design of mechanisms;

b)       selection and/or design requirements of components.

This document does not provide requirements for proof of competence calculation regarding different limit states (yield strength, fatigue, wear).

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:

• mandatory clauses to satisfy,
• non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document "ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents" as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
