Flying structures; notification of erection and acceptance for use
The erection and use of flying constructions requiring a permit must be reported.
Description
Flying structures are structural installations that are suitable and intended to be repeatedly erected and dismantled at changing locations. Flying structures include, for example, grandstands, stages with or without canopies, advertising towers, tents of all kinds, airborne structures, amusement rides (from boat swings to Ferris wheels), amusement stores, gambling and sales businesses, hospitality facilities, etc. Construction site facilities and facilities in amusement parks are not flying structures.
The intended erection of flying structures requiring a permit must be notified to the Building Inspectorate at least one week in advance, with presentation of the inspection book, unless this is not required under the execution permit.
Flying constructions requiring approval may only be put into operation if
- they have been accepted by the building supervisory authority (acceptance for use), unless this is not required according to the execution permit or the building supervisory authority waives this in individual cases, and
- acceptance tests prescribed in the execution permit have been carried out by experts in accordance with Art. 72 Para. 2 Sentence 3 Bavarian Building Code (BayBO).
Prerequisites
Flying structures may only be erected and put into use if an execution permit has been issued before they are erected or put into use for the first time.
