NECA / NJATC
Lineworker Rigging Practices is an introduction to the physical principles,
safety considerations, and common practices involved in hoisting loads.
This
process involves planning a lift, evaluating and preparing a load, choosing
appropriate rigging equipment, rigging a load, communicating hoisting
instructions, and conducting a lift safely. Each step is critical to maintaining
a controlled lift with a proper margin of safety.
Online Resources provide interactive
tools that reinforce key concep[ts and other signaling practice.
This textbook also includes instruction on the following critical skills and
procedures:
- Signaling a digger derrick or crane operator for desired crane motions
- Calculating load weight
- Determining a load’s center of gravity and balance points
- Calculating sling loads
- Inspecting and maintaining rigging equipment
- Comparing equipment ratings for different sling types, sizes, and hitches
- Tying practical knots, hitches, and splices
- Evaluating the mechanical advantage of block-and-tackle assemblies
