Overall Ground Stability Confidence Level
Very Low - Do Not Proceed
Low - Requires Remediation
Moderate - Monitor Closely
High - Acceptable
Very High - Excellent
Precise load calculations are non-negotiable. Every component must be accounted for. Use engineered lift plans and verify all measurements. The crane's capacity must exceed total load weight by mandated safety factors at all boom angles and radii.
Weight of Primary Load (metric tons)
Load Description & Material Specification
Load Dimensions (L x W x H) and Center of Gravity Location
Is the load's center of gravity centrally located or offset?
Total Weight of All Rigging Gear Below Hook (tons)
Total Gross Load Weight (Load + Rigging)
Planned Boom Length for Lift (meters)
Planned Boom Angle (degrees from horizontal)
Maximum Radius During Load Travel (meters)
Crane Capacity at This Radius & Configuration (tons)
Calculated Safety Factor (Capacity/Gross Load)
Does safety factor meet or exceed project minimum (typically 1.5-2.0)?
Will load be side-loaded or have non-vertical lift forces?

Final authorization requires independent verification by both a Certified Master Rigger and Site Safety Manager. Each must physically inspect all elements. Electronic signatures constitute legal acknowledgment of accountability for safe lift execution. No lift may proceed without both signatures.
Has a pre-lift safety meeting been conducted with all personnel involved?
List All Personnel Attending Pre-Lift Meeting (Names & Roles)
Are all personnel briefed on specific hazards identified in this permit?
Is emergency response plan activated and emergency services notified?
Is a stop work authority clearly assigned and understood by all?
