The upcoming implementation of the new ANSI A92.22 Safe Use and A92.24 Training Standards for Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs) in the United States is creating quite a bit of confusion in the industry.
Full Story of Addressing the Challenges of the Upcoming Changes to the ANSI A92 StandardsThe current ANSI and CSA standards for safe use and training have not been updated for many years (the current ANSI boom, scissor lift and manually propelled standards were last updated in 2006, and CSA standards go back even further).
Full Story of Changes to the ANSI and CSA Standards You Need to Know AboutWith so much changing in the updated ANSI/CSA standards, it is important to call attention to one key item that every user (identified in the standards as employers) needs to be aware of.
Full Story of Eight Stages of Risk AssessmentANSI A92 and CSA B354 standards are about to get a facelift. Pending standards changes, which are estimated to go into effect this year, are written to be more in line with the ISO model so standards will be in global alignment for trade and exporting.
Full Story of Language and Terminology Changes in the ANSI A92 and CSA B354 Standards UpdatesANSI (United States) and CSA (Canada) standards have, for almost four decades, provided best practices for safe, reliable access to work at height and have delivered a consistent benchmark for safe machine design in North America.
Full Story of Recap of the Pending ANSI/CSA Standards - Everything is ChangingThe new standards are based on an ISO model, so they are very similar to the current European EN280 standard. As a global manufacturer, Genie can leverage our experiences in Europe to help with the transition, but we have to remember that North American aerial operators are very different.
Full Story of Big Changes Coming to ANSI A92 StandardsWith Tier 4 emissions standards compliance underway, we now need to turn our attention to the next “big thing” to impact the aerial rental market — pending changes to the ANSI A92/CSA B354 standards series* (which cover all North American aerials).
Full Story of Start Preparing Now for the New Aerial Standards ComingWith the pending changes to ANSI 92* and CSA B354 standards, there is a need for education in the aerial market about the implications of the new standards, as well as how they will work with current industry regulations.
Full Story of How Industry Regulations and Standards WorkWith the pending changes to the ANSI A92 and CSA B354 estimated to go into effect in 2018, it is important for you to start preparing your business and your customers now for what will be different.
Full Story of Frequently Asked Questions About the Upcoming ANSI/CSA Standards ChangesIn addition to the terminology and language changes in the new ANSI A92 and CSA B354 standards, which are projected to go into effect later in 2018, the standards also include several big changes to the equipment itself.
Full Story of Big Changes, Little Changes Are ComingChanges to ANSI A92 and CSA B354 standards are coming; we expect to the standards to go into effect in 2018. One of the more significant equipment changes coming from the updated standards will be the addition of platform load sense.
Full Story of Preparing for Platform Load SenseChanges to North American standards (ANSI A92 in the United States and CSA B354 in Canada) are expected to come in 2018 and will create a new “normal” for mobile elevated work platforms (MEWPs), formerly known as aerial work platforms (AWPs), worldwide.
