The Contractor shall incorporate three independent inhibits in the design (dual failure tolerant) if a system failure can lead to a catastrophic hazard. A prelaunch catastrophic hazard is a payload-related hazard, condition, or event occurring prior to launch that could result in a fatal injury to personnel or loss of a ground facility. A post-launch catastrophic hazard is a payload-related hazard, condition, or event occurring after launch and up to payload separation that could result in a fatal injury or loss of flight termination system. The system is defined as all flight hardware, all supporting equipment, interfacing EGSE and MGSE, and facilities. (CCR-X00249)

The Contractor shall incorporate two independent inhibits in the design (single failure tolerant) if a system failure can lead to a critical hazard. A critical hazard is defined as a hazard, condition or event that can cause severe injury or occupational illness or major property damage to facilities. The system is defined as all flight hardware, supporting equipment, interfacing EGSE and MGSE, and facilities as applicable. (CCR-X00249)

The Contractor shall adhere to specific detailed safety requirements, including compliance verification that must be met for design elements with hazards that cannot be controlled by failure tolerance. The process by which safety is incorporated into these design elements (e.g., structures and pressure vessels) is called "Design for Minimum Risk". (CCR-X00249)

The Contractor shall comply with the following safety requirements for LDE when performing NASA work at non-NASA facilities:

⦁ Ensure overhead cranes, winches, and wire rope hoists have a dual hoist braking system and hoist dual upper limit switches installed per the NASA- STD-8719.9B w/ Change 1 (Lifting Standard), Sections 5.4 and 7.4. If not commercially available dual upper limit switches and dual brakes do not apply to chain hoists. A single hoist motor holding brake in combination with a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) dynamic braking system is an acceptable dual braking system.

⦁ Label and tag LDE the NASA-STD-8719.9B w/ Change 1, Section 4.9 requirements with no more than its Working Load Limit (WLL) as determined by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or its current certified WLL if that value is lower than the OEM rated WLL.

⦁ Perform an initial one-time proof load test per the following NASA-STD-8719.9B w/ Change 1, Section 4.5 requirements:

⦁ 1.25X WLL for overhead cranes.

⦁ 1.25X WLL for mobile aerial platforms that will be used near critical hardware.

⦁ 1X WLL for mobile cranes and derricks (.95X to 1X is acceptable).

⦁ 1.25X WLL for below-the-hook (BTH) lifting devices.

⦁ Ensure slings (i.e., wire rope, synthetics, chain, etc.) are only proof load tested beyond its WLL with OEM approval.

⦁ 2X WLL for rigging hardware items used for critical lifts (i.e., shackles.

hoist rings. turnbuckles, etc.).

⦁ Perform a 1X WLL load test every four years after the initial proof test on all LDE.

⦁ In addition to visual inspection, perform a post load test Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) inspection (e.g., radiographic, ultra-sonic, magnetic particle, dye penetrant, etc.) on crane hooks and critical welds. A critical weld is one in which a failure would result in a failure of the hardware.
