This course covers advanced rigging principles, safety requirements, and key considerations for safe rigging. Students participating in this course will be able to identify appropriate rigging techniques; they will understand sling angles and the stresses imposed. They will go thru OSHA’s new regulations on qualifications of riggers and the national consensus standards for rigging to include sling and hardware inspections and rejection criteria. An extensive use of hands-on practical techniques emphasizes the training and the course is completed with a tour of an active rigging shop.
