Steps

  1. Pull current text of 29 CFR 1926.1412 from osha.gov/ecfr.gov (construction cranes, Subpart CC)
  2. Classify the engagement: pre-shift visual (competent person, no written report unless deficiency found), monthly documented inspection, or annual/comprehensive inspection by a qualified person
  3. Note the annual/comprehensive inspection may require disassembly of components, NDT of critical welds, and load testing where the qualified person determines it is warranted
  4. Confirm the annual inspection deadline runs from the anniversary of the prior annual inspection, per OSHA's 2015 standard interpretation letter
  5. Match the inspecting individual's qualifications to the category (competent person for shift, qualified person for annual)
