Basic Rigging Principles

Rigging is a process used to secure materials to be moved by cranes, hoists or other lifting equipment. There are many factors to consider when applying slings and chains to secure a load. Improper rigging can lead to dropped loads and catastrophic failure of lifting equipment, which can cost lives. Part 1 will describe rigging equipment and how to care for, inspect and store it and Part 2 will cover the steps required to prepare for safe rigging.
