According to ASME, what percentage of the manufacturer's crane rating must not be exceeded if a load test is done on a repaired crane?

  1. 110%

  2. 100%

  3. 85%

  4. 75%

The correct answer is: 100%

When conducting a load test on a repaired crane according to ASME standards, the load test should not exceed 100% of the manufacturer's crane rating. This requirement is in place to ensure the safety and structural integrity of the crane after repairs have been made. Testing at the manufacturer's rated capacity verifies that the crane can handle the specified loads without undue stress or risk of failure, which is crucial for both operator safety and equipment longevity. By adhering to this 100% guideline, operators can ensure compliance with safety regulations and maintain reliability in lifting operations.
