CCA 247 — Safet y Orientation II
This course is intended to supplement the hands-on experience gained in instruction on rigging techniques and hardware. It introduces the subject by beginning with the history of rigging, followed by information about safety, wire rope, chain construction, slings, hardware, and knot-tying techniques. This will be followed by discussion on rigging procedures that cover common hitch configuration, hardware and sling attachments, working with different types of cranes, and directing crane movements with hand and voice signals used by riggers to signal crane operators.
