SAIA Schedules ASC A92 Aerial Platforms Annual Meeting

The Scaffold & Access Industry Association announces the 2014 ASC A92 Aerial Platforms Annual Meeting will be held Oct. 26-29 at the Harrah's Casino Hotel in Las Vegas.

The meeting is open to the public who are interested in the standards activities that establish consensus rules, guidelines or characteristics for activities or their results in the aerial platforms industry. Consensus (industry) standards are voluntarily used by manufacturers, dealers, owners, users and operators of aerial platforms. The purpose of the standards is the prevention of accidents and injuries, as well as, establishing criteria for the manufacturers. The standards also aid the manufacturers, dealers, owners, users and operators of the platforms to understand their various responsibilities.

The A92 consensus body was created to develop safety guidelines for the design, construction, testing, maintenance, inspection, training, use and operation of elevating and rotating aerial devices, work platforms and vertical devices primarily used to position personnel.
