9:40AM Book published a week after Battersea accident that killed two

Independent research and conference body Ciria has published a new guide covering crane stability. The release comes just over a week after a 165ft crane collapsed onto a block of flats near the Battersea Power Station site, killing two people, the crane driver and a member of public.

鈥楾ower crane stability鈥� aims to bring together practical and design issues that affect health and safety as well as present a current understanding of best practice based on industry experience. It also offers a wide range of checklists and legislation guidance

The publication had been slated for release earlier this week but was postponed following the incident.

The book, whose authors include former Laing employees Tim Watson and Bob Dunkley, follows a previous publication called 鈥楥rane stability on site鈥�.

Independent body Ciria produces around 25 new publications each year and has a back catalogue of 600 publications.
