    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Specifies requirements for the design, manufacture and construction of fixed and portable amusement rides and devices. Includes a classification system for rides and devices.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Standard specifies requirements for the design, manufacture and construction of fixed and portable amusement rides and devices, excluding - (a) miniature trains and railway systems owned and operated by model railway societies, clubs or associations;(b) rides or devices when operated under the control of public transport legislation; (c) plant specifically designed and used for sporting, professional stunt, theatrical or acrobatic activities; and(d) passenger ropeways and passenger conveyors (see AS 4722).NOTES:1 The exclusion in Item (c) does not prevent such plant being used as an amusement device provided it complies with the relevant requirements in this Standard.2 Specific requirements for particular types of amusement rides and devices are specified in Section 5 of this Standard, other Parts of AS 3533 and other Standards; the specific requirements take precedence over corresponding general requirements in this Standard where any difference exists. Clause 5.1 lists the other Parts of AS 3533 and the other Standards that will need to be consulted for certain types of amusement rides and devices.3 The operation and maintenance of amusement rides and devices are covered by AS 3533.2. AS 3533.3 provides requirements for in-service inspections of amusement rides and devices.4 Compliance with the requirements and conditions set down by associations such as The Australian Association of Live Steamers is generally required for the miniature trains and railway systems mentioned in Item (a) above.
