 Dust storms
 Heavy Rainfall

5.9 Permit to Work System

PTW System is a system to manage and control certain types of hazardous work Including lifting operations. The lift -
ing supervisor coordinating the lifting operation is to apply for the PTW to carry out the lifting operation. In the appli -
cation for PTW, he should state the scope and conditions in which the lifting operation is to be carried out. An inde -
pendent inspection is then conducted on site to verify that appropriate control measures have been taken to miti -
gate any foreseeable risks. After confirming that the measures have indeed been taken, the application would then
be approved by an authorized person (Permit Issuer). Lifting supervisors must ensure that a permit is issued by the
authorized person before he instructs the lifting team to carry out any lifting operation at the worksite
Responsibilities:

 The overall responsibility of ensuring that the permit system is in place and efficient is with the Project Manager.
 The permits are raised by the lifting supervisor and will then be approved by the section-in charge (Permit Issuer
- Project Engineer) after verifying all permit conditions and procedures.
 A copy of the permit is given to the HSE Advisor for verifying the ground level Implementation during inspec -
tions.

LIFTING PLAN Rev-01Page 13 of 19


Hills & Fort Construction LLC

 The supervisory staff (Foreman) is the permit holder (or in case of sub-contractor, the concerned engineer will
be the permit holder).
 The engineer closes the permit once the job is done

6.0 ACCESSORIES FOR LIFTING


6.1 Inspections
All chains, ropes and accessories for lifting, used for raising or lowering and as a means of suspension, must be
examined and color coded by a competent and experienced person prior to their first use and subsequently
thoroughly examined every six months by competent personnel.

6.2 Marking
Every rope, chain, shackle must be clearly marked with its Safe Working Load (SWL) and carry an identity mark

6.3 Overloading
Ropes, chains, shackles etc. must never be overloaded except under test conditions and as authorized by a
competent and experienced person.

6.4 Preventing Damage


The edges and corners of a load should be packed to prevent damage to the lifting accessory.

6.5 Hooks
All hooks used for lifting must be fitted with a safety catch.

6.6 Slings
Slings must be attached correctly the lifting equipment by an approved method, either by securing the ring di -
rectly onto the hook if size permits, or by use of a suitable shackle, fitted with the crown of the shackle on the
hook and the pin fully engaged.
LIFTING PLAN Rev-01Page 14 of 19
Hills & Fort Construction LLC

The correct method of slinging will vary with the types of load, the different materials or items lifted. It is essen -
tial to see that the load is secure. Care must be taken to see that slings are not damaged, and suspect or defec -
tive slings must be discarded.

Dog ropes or taglines, securely attached to the end of the load, should be used when handling long or large
loads, to direct the load into position and prevent it spinning. Tag lines should be as short as possible.

Multiple slings must be connected by a ring or shackle and the load properly distributed so that no leg is over -
loaded.

The angles between sling legs should be less than 90 degrees. At angles greater than this, the strain on each leg
increases very rapidly to a point where they may break because of overloading.

6.7 Repaired Ropes, Chains.


Any chain, sling or rope, which has been altered or repaired by welding must be examined and re-tested before
it is taken back into use. The record should be kept until the next scheduled thorough examination.

6.8 Slinging Methods


The following diagrams are some of the most common sling configurations in use in the construction industry.

Note: Care must be taken to prevent slings from sliding in towards each other.

6.9 Shackles

LIFTING PLAN Rev-01Page 15 of 19


Hills & Fort Construction LLC

Two types of shackles are commonly used in lifting operations; they are the Bow type shackle and the Dee type
shackle.

Bow shackles should be used when more than one attachment is to be made, or to allow movement on the
plane of the shackles. Dee shackles are usually joining shackles.

Overloading, eccentric shackle loads, and misuse can distort shackles; they should be checked regularly for
shape and wear.

Again, all shackles must be marked with its SWL and with an identification number each.

The plant department retains all original certificates and gives a copy for HSE record.

7. Emergency Response Procedure

The emergency response procedure is developed in order to identify the potential emergency situations like crane
overturning during the lifting or any other foreseeable emergency situation that may occur at the construction
project. Response and management procedures shall be in line with risk-based identification and approved emergency
response plan for the project

HFC shall develop emergency plans that take account of all credible emergency scenarios that could arise from
lifting operations, in compliance with the requirements of Dubai Municipality Code of Construction Practice.
