Ladder Testing
« on: October 19, 2004, 05:53:41 PM »
Good evening everybody,
I am corresponding from the Persian Gulf & would appreciate some assistance with ladder testing info. required asap.

Require details on British Standards, Technical Bulletins especially on MONTHLY & ANNUAL Test Procedures.

Due to our location, we have no test records / equipment registers etc. etc.
It would be appreciated if correspondence could be related to the following ladders:

9.5m, 10.5 & 13.5 Extending Ladders.

All correspondence will be acknowledged. Many thanks for your time & assitance.
Best regards
Jock McArthur.

Certain manufacturers have different inspection regulations, but usually the ladders you mention have a visual inspection and also a deflection test.

I have details of the tests of Angus-Sacol ladders if that is any good to you?

Content
 This Bulletin contains recommendations for the periodic inspection and testing of Fire Service equipment. The recommendations contained in this Technical Bulletin are a revision of and a replacement for the "Standard Tests" previously contained in the Fire Service Drill Book, which has now been superseded.
