The 3 types of inspection demystified!
In accordance with the CSA B167-16 standard, lifting equipment must be inspected to ensure safety in the workplace. But how do you differentiate the different types of inspection for overhead cranes and other lifting equipment? Here's a summary of each type of inspection, to help demystify the issue.
- Operational inspection
- Frequent inspection
- Periodic inspection
1. Operational inspection
The purpose of this inspection is to check the lifting equipment before it is used for each shift. It also includes confirmation that the equipment is shut down after that shift. Both checks must be carried out by the operator himself. The aim is to look for any anomalies before use, and to ensure that the equipment is safely shut down before the next shift. All this information should be recorded in the machine's daily logbook, which should be easily accessible to operators and supervisors.
The inspection at the start of the shift has 2 components: a de-energized inspection of the equipment, consisting of a visual check of essential components, and an energized inspection consisting of various tests of the equipment to ensure it is working properly.
The stationary inspection is carried out at the end of the shift. It involves checking that the machine is safely parked before the next shift.

2. Frequent inspection
The purpose of this inspection is to "detect faults, malfunctions and damage" to the equipment. For this reason, the inspection must be carried out by a "competent " and "qualified person " (CSA B167-16 6.4.1; 6.4.2 1) b)). It must also be carried out directly at the equipment, rather than from the ground.
Frequent inspection should be carried out at intervals that depend on the equipment's class of use , ranging from daily to monthly. To find out more about frequent inspection intervals for your equipment, you'll need to identify its class of use (A to F) and consult CSA B167-16 in section 6.4.1.
As part of the frequent inspection, the competent and qualified person will carry out an auditory and visual examination of essential equipment components, and write his or her observations in the equipment maintenance logbook.
3. Periodic inspection
The purpose of this inspection is to detect anomalies "to determine if they affect the safe operation of the lifting device." (CSA B167-16 6.5.2.1). In this case, it must be carried out by an "lifting device inspector " (CSA B167-16 6.5.1.1). It must also be carried out directly at the equipment, rather than from the ground.
Periodic inspection must be carried out at intervals that depend on the equipment's class of use , ranging from quarterly to annually. To find out more about the periodic inspection interval for your equipment, you'll need to identify its class of use (A to F) and consult CSA B167-16 in section 6.5.1.1.
As part of the periodic inspection, the inspector will focus on all components of the lifting device, in addition to the frequent inspection checks. He will base his examination on the manufacturer's instructions, or failing that, on a protocol drawn up by a competent person. He will write his observations in the equipment maintenance logbook.
