Description: It is a requirement of most National Authorities that lifting appliances are approved, examined,
tested and certified by a competent person or organisation before being taken into use and thereafter are
periodically surveyed to maintain the validity of the certification.
Ships or offshore units fitted with appliances built in accordance with this Code in respect of structural and
machinery requirements may be eligible for Special Features class notations. These notations will be retained
so long as the appliances are found upon examination at the prescribed surveys to be maintained in accordance
with class requirements.
This Code is applicable to marine lifting appliances, including:
(a) derrick and derrick crane systems;
(b) launch and recovery appliances for survival craft and rescue boats;
(c) cranes;
(d) launch and recovery systems for diving operations;
(e) lifts and ramps;
