Crane Safety & Management takes place at Jurys Hotel in London on June 22 and June 23, 2006. Three streams – on mobile, tower, and factory cranes – will follow the morning plenary sessions. The second day of the conference will include workshops on CIRIA’s new report on tower crane stability, which provides practical guidance on the safe use of tower cranes, and explains the issues affecting their design, erection and use.

Panel discussions featuring representatives from major manufacturers

Topics covered at the conference – each of which will highlight business benefits of practical use to delegates – will include:

* Why it makes business sense to harmonise global standards.

* Effective crane inspection to protect your employees and save on claims.

* Rescue systems – the lessons from a major initiative in British Columbia.

* How the latest safety standards are changing crane building.

* Reconciling European and international views of crane maintenance.

* Using suspended baskets to lift people.

* Crane operator training and certification.
