Background - Do You Know the Essentials of a Basic Rigging Course in Queensland?

Safety in rigging operations is paramount, and understanding the crucial of a basic rigging course is important for both the safety of workers and the successful completion of a project. 

This unit specifies skills and knowledge needed to perform basic rigging safely. 

Riggers are responsible for using mechanical load shifting gear and related gear to secure, move or place loads. 

This includes plant, equipment, or structural members. Riggers set up hoists and ensure stability of members. 

This unit covers rigging of structural steel hoists, pre-cast concrete members in a structure, safety nets and static line mast climbing platforms, perimeter safety screens and shutters as well as cantilevered crane load platforms. 

In construction and other industries, rigging is done when load shifting equipment is being used to secure or move loads. 

Anyone performing construction work must complete the general construction induction program specified in the Safe Work Australia Model Code of Practice Construction Work. 

This requirement is met by completing CPCCWHS1001 Prepare for work in the construction industry. This unit requires a prerequisite. This requirement can be met either by successfully completing the unit CPCCLDG3001 Licence to perform dogging or having a valid dogging licence. 

The completion of this unit is not sufficient to obtain a licence. After assessing competence in accordance with applicable Commonwealth, State or Territory work health and Safety (WHS) Regulations, a licence can be obtained.

It is necessary to familiarise oneself with the different types of rigging hardware used in lifting and moving heavy loads safely. 

Understanding how to select the right hardware for the job based on load requirements and environmental factors is paramount. Perceiving the distinctions between hardware types is vital for ensuring the success and safety of rigging operations.
