Objective: Scientific substantiation of a sequence of expertise of fire and industrial safety of buildings and building structures with crane loads. Methods: Decision making theory. Results: Discusses the problem of crane equipment safety included in the lists of machinery and equipment subject to obligatory certification of conformity requirements of technical regulations on safety of machines and equipment. In accordance with the analysis of the causes of accidents of crane equipment, it is established that the main cause of accidents are human error (e. g., violation of regulatory requirements when conducting repair work). Allocated and describes the characteristics of fire and industrial safety expertise of buildings and building structures with crane loads. The main content of the expertise is the preliminary hazard analysis, which is a method of analysis whose purpose is to identify hazards, hazardous situations and events that could cause harm hazardous production facilities operating lifting equipment. The author focuses on the fact that during the expertise of industrial safety is calculated of the actual physical deterioration of the crane equipment, and buildings with crane loads, to determine its further exploitation. Cast lifting devices into compliance with the requirements of fire and industrial safety is based on: peer-diagnostic tests; retrofitting the necessary equipment and safety devices; carrying out major rehabilitation and equipment repair. Practical importance: Еxpertise of industrial safety of buildings and building structures with crane loads in the proposed sequences will provide the required level of security and reliability of the equipment used; will allow you to reduce the downtime of equipment and time to repair used equipment.
