HE0890 : Mobile & Overhead Crane Operation & Troubleshooting

 This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt in the class will be applied using the following practical methods: -
(1)
Industrial Facility Visit: Course participants will be taken to an industrial facility where they will practice lifting equipment and mobile crane inspection. In case this course is organized inside client premises (In-House), the client shall provide access to its lifting equipment, mobile cranes, and maintenance areas for practical sessions.
(2)
Compu Crane Simulator: Participants will use in the class our state-of-the-art “Compu Crane Simulator” to practice some of the skills learnt.
The course will discuss the causes and results of crane accidents and understand the responsibilities of operator, rigger and supervisor; identify the different types of components and terminology of mobile and overhead cranes; provide knowledge on how mobile and overhead cranes are rated; and how to interpret and use load charts.

Participants of the course will be able to implement safe operating practices and procedures including pre-lift considerations; perform pre-operational inspections; prepare for a critical lift; conduct pick and carryout operations safely; perform multi-crane lifts; apply the procedures for boom assembly/disassembly; determine correct hand signals and responsibility of signal persons; implement the procedures for working cranes around power lines and avoid crane contact with power lines; comply with OSHA and ANSI/ASME safety requirements, especially when hoisting personnel with cranes; practice various rigging skills including wire rope, slings, chain, rigging hardware, lifting devices, calculating sling load, reeving, determining load weight, safe rigging practices and procedures; and prepare lift plan.
