The design institute was asked to provide a diagram showing the locations for installing the lifting lugs, but they were unable to do so. Have the manufacturing factory prepare the drawings and carry out the installation, but the factory says it doesn’t have the drawings and won’t take responsibility. Have the construction company prepare the drawings to determine the location, but the company lacks the capability to do so. . . . I wonder how the issue of lifting lugs was handled when other factories were being set up Upon verification, the issue has been resolved; according to 7.10.1 of SH3074-2007 regarding lifting lugs, the design of lifting lugs for large-scale equipment shall be carried out in accordance with SH3515 by the lifting unit. The lifting equipment selected by the design unit or provided by the manufacturer can be used for lifting on site only after it has been verified and approved by the lifting contractor. Explanation of the provisions 7.10.1 Lugs: In accordance with SH/T3515, the lifting construction technical documents (including the calculations related to the lugs) shall be prepared by the lifting company, and approved by the chief engineer of that company. The design unit of the container does not possess the qualifications and expertise for lifting. For special equipment, the lifting company can, in accordance with the lifting plan, submit to the container’s design or manufacturing party requirements regarding the materials, structure, positioning, and technical specifications of the mounting lugs (including lugs, tail lugs, reinforcing structures, etc.). Once the design party confirms that this will not affect the container’s functionality, the installation of the lugs can be carried out
