The Basics of Civil Rigging
The primary aim of Bigfoot’s Civil Rigging Course is to equip untrained workers with the knowledge needed to safely and effectively use rigging equipment. The course covers essential topics such as the correct lifting practices, equipment usage, and identifying hazards in the work environment.
A significant portion of rigging failures—around 80%—are due to slings being cut. This course places emphasis on the proper inspection and safe handling of slings and hardware to prevent such failures.
In addition to practical equipment use, the course ensures workers understand current regulations and how to apply them on the job site. Workers will also learn how to ask the right questions when assessing a load, ensuring they know how to safely use taglines and maintain distance from potential hazards.
The training prepares participants to follow best practices in rigging and increase job site safety. For those who want to avoid costly mistakes and improve their overall safety awareness, enrolling in the Civil Rigging Course is an essential step toward mastering the fundamentals of rigging.
