Crane Owners Delivering Materials
It's common for articulating cranes to deliver construction materials to the worksite.
If the owners of cranes that deliver sheet goods (such as drywall or plywood) or packaged goods (such as roofing shingles, bags of cement, or rolls of roofing felt) to a construction site using a flatbed truck equipped with an articulating crane and only place materials on the ground without arranging the materials in a particular order for hoisting, OSHA does not consider them engaged in construction work and they have no duties under the standard.
If equipment places materials onto the structure, OSHA considers the activity as construction work, and the standard applies to the work.
Refer to Module 1.7 for specific requirements for employers that deliver materials to the construction site.
