Scope

GB/T 20776-2023 is the English-translated version of 起重机械分类.

GB/T 20776-2023 classifies lifting appliances and gives them a code. In China lifting equipment is special equipment: it is registered, periodically inspected and licensed by the state, and the classification is what determines which rules a given machine falls under, so the boundary between a crane, a hoist and a lifting platform is a regulatory line and not a taxonomic convenience. The standard sets the classification principles, the method and the resulting classes, and then the coding method and the structure of the code, with an informative annex illustrating the types of lifting machinery with diagrams. Together with the crane design code and the crane vocabulary it forms the base of the Chinese lifting machinery standards system. It took effect on 1 July 2024.

1 Scope

GB/T 20776-2023 classifies lifting appliances and gives them a code. In China lifting equipment is special equipment: it is registered, periodically inspected and licensed by the state, and the classification is what determines which rules a given machine falls under, so the boundary between a crane, a hoist and a lifting platform is a regulatory line and not a taxonomic convenience. The standard sets the classification principles, the method and the resulting classes, and then the coding method and the structure of the code, with an informative annex illustrating the types of lifting machinery with diagrams. Together with the crane design code and the crane vocabulary it forms the base of the Chinese lifting machinery standards system. It took effect on 1 July 2024.

This document defines the terms and definitions of lifting machinery, and stipulates the classification principles, methods and classification, coding methods and codes of lifting machinery: structure: This document applies to the classification of the main types of lifting machinery:
