If you are looking for Equipment Inspection Forms, you have come to the right place.
With Field Eagle, you have access to this checklist, amongst hundreds of others. You can also build your own templates, forms, checklists and more.
A crane inspection checklist is used to verify that mobile cranes, tower cranes, overhead cranes, and other lifting equipment are safe and compliant with OSHA and ASME B30 standards before each shift and during periodic formal inspections.
To use this checklist, a qualified crane operator should complete the pre-shift inspection before the crane is put into service each day. The inspection covers all safety-critical crane components including the boom and structural elements, wire rope and rigging, load hook and block, outriggers and stability systems, controls and indicators, and all required safety devices. Monthly and annual inspections must be performed by a qualified inspector and documented. Any defects affecting safe operation must be corrected before the crane is used.
OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1412 requires pre-shift inspections of cranes and derricks on construction sites before each shift, monthly inspections, and annual inspections. This checklist supports compliance with these requirements and with ASME B30 series standards for cranes, hoists, and lifting devices, creating the documented inspection records that OSHA requires and that demonstrate due diligence in crane safety management.
Field Eagle is the best way to conduct your inspections and improve your asset management operations. Field Eagle allows you to conduct all of your inspections faster and more accurately than ever before, and build historical data that can help you predict future trends to plan maintenance or purchasing decisions with more accuracy.
Unlike paper checklists or basic spreadsheets, Field Eagle connects every inspection finding directly to the asset it relates to, triggers corrective actions automatically, and builds a longitudinal condition history across every inspection cycle. AI Preventative Maintenance then analyses that accumulated history to predict failures before they happen.

Field Eagle is a tablet-based field inspection and asset management software platform built for industrial operations in oil and gas, mining, construction, utilities, and manufacturing. Field Eagle replaces paper checklists with structured digital inspection workflows that connect findings to asset records, compliance documentation, and corrective action systems.
The crane inspection checklist addresses OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1412 Inspections for cranes and derricks in construction, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.179 for overhead cranes in general industry, ASME B30.5 for mobile and locomotive cranes, ASME B30.2 for overhead and gantry cranes, and CSA Z150 for Canadian mobile crane safety.
Yes. Every Field Eagle checklist and template is fully customizable. Add or remove inspection points, configure mandatory fields, add conditional logic, set required photo capture points, and adjust scoring criteria to match your specific equipment, site conditions, and regulatory requirements.
Yes. Field Eagle runs on tablets and operates fully offline. Your inspection teams complete checklists at remote sites, underground operations, offshore platforms, and any location without connectivity. All data syncs automatically when connectivity is restored.
Crane failures and rigging failures are among the most catastrophic incidents in construction and industrial operations. OSHA requires documented pre-shift, monthly, and annual inspections for all cranes. A structured crane inspection checklist ensures every required safety system is verified before the crane lifts a load, creates the documented records OSHA inspectors request, and identifies developing defects before they result in structural failure or dropped loads.
