Lifting and Slinging - Rigging Techniques

Lifting and Slinging - Rigging Techniques
Summary

The course will train delegates in the principles of banking a crane using hand and radio signals, in the correct slinging of different types of loads, in the safety precautions to be taken whilst working with cranes and rigging equipment, and in the inspection and use of all associated equipment. The course is a mix of theoretical and practical sessions, during which delegates will be required to demonstrate their level of knowledge and understanding of the training program content.

This 3-day B. Khebra’s training program provides both strategic and practical insights into:

  • Understanding lifting equipment
  • Proper utilization of wire ropes
  • Proper utilization of chain slings
  • Understanding load limits and proper angling
  • Proper use of trolleys and beam clamps
  • Determining centre of gravity and load distribution
  • Understanding crane signals
Reference
Lifting and Slinging - Rigging Techniques
Objective

Upon successful completion of this course, the delegates will be able to:

  • Understand the relevant regulations pertaining to lifting operations (e.g. LOLER and PUWER)
  • Assess loads in terms of their weight and centre of gravity
  • Understand SWLs and colour coding
  • Carryout pre-use inspections on equipment used in rigging and slinging to ensure safe lifting
  • Sling loads and ensure they are secure and ready for lifting
  • Identify the correct hand and radio signals to be used
  • Apply the correct use of different lifting equipment (e.g. chain blocks, tirfors, slings, shackles and chains)
  • Recognize the correct packing and stowage of containers, half heights and correct securing methods
  • Identify all the safety precautions to be taken whilst working with cranes and rigging equipment in terms of issues such as safe stances
Who should attend

This course is intended for lifting equipment operators, inspectors of lifting equipment, rigging personnel and contractors, maintenance and project managers, plant managers and technicians and maintenance mechanical engineers, supervisors & foremen, safety program managers and all personnel involved in rigging and slinging operations.

  • BK Management Team believe that learning is not only about acquiring technical skills, it is also about learning behaviors & Competencies that are desirable for work in plant operation & maintenance critical dimensions. Our holistic teaching develops our delegates' personal effectiveness to function both as an individual and as a team player. The course delivery & modes of instruction will incorporate theory , practical skills and Q&A sessions. 
  • To enhance learning outcomes, theory sessions will comprise classroom based lecture that will intersperse with interactive discussions, scenario-based, case-study, group exercises, video clips, power point slides, learners' Guide and the application of various tools which will be provided to help in the delegates and participants of the learning’s objectives. With successful implementation of the learnt skills they are bound to enhance Individual & Organizational growth.
  • For online / Interactive Virtual sessions, Delegate should have a stable & good Internet connection on his Laptop.

On successful completion of this training course, BK’s Certificate with eligible Continuing Professional Education credits (CPE), will be awarded to the delegates , one CPE credit is granted per 50 minutes of attendance.
