Cranes

Q: Do you have to have a certified welder to weld the cross beams on a crane?
A: OSHA does not say anything about the need for a certified welder it just says the welder must be qualified.  When welding on a crane though, you need to contact the crane manufacture to get their approval because welding on the crane can affect the load rating of that crane.
