All GBL equipment is designed to meet or exceed the requirements of the OSHA Code for material lifting and scaffolding. The OSHA Code covers the entire United States and is easily transferable to international codes, making GBL equipment code-compliant the world over.
GBL equipment for use in NYC is additionally designed to meet the requirements of the NYC Building Code as well as all applicable NYC Administrative Codes and Rules. Not only are GBL's Professional Engineers (PE's) allowed to “self-certify” that the plans they file with the New York City Department of Buildings are in compliance with all applicable laws using the professional certification process, but GBL’s Professional Engineers are also registered to e-file their applications. These factors significantly reduce the amount of time it takes to obtain a work permit.
