Visual Check

Person without dismantling of the assembly. Normally the check itself is not formally recorded
although the fact that the check has been performed is registered within a daily event log or tour
log.
Visual Inspection
A Visual Inspection is a careful and critical assessment of the components, carried out by a
Competent Person without dismantling of the assembly. The inspection is formally recorded.
Examination
An Examination is a careful and critical assessment of the components, carried out by a Competent
Person. This should include dismantling the assembly and performing a visual assessment of the
condition of each component, supplemented by other means such as measurement and non-
destructive testing as considered necessary. For sling sets this should include a visual inspection of
the condition of the sling. In order for end fittings of sling sets to be examined properly, they may
need to be dismantled. The examination is formally recorded.
Post Load Test Visual Inspection
A Post Load Test Visual Inspection is a careful and critical assessment of the components, carried out
by a Competent Person without dismantling of the assembly post load testing. The post load test
visual inspection is formally recorded.
Critical Components
Critical Components are defined as those that are primarily essential to the critical load bearing
path.
