Engage in discussion on lift angles and share experiences

Practice to measure lift angels by different examples (practiced during all exercises)

Receive feedback constructively

CENTRE OF GRAVITY (COG)

Learning objective:

The participants can responsibly and on their own initiative adjust loads in relation to CoG (Ability, intermediate level)

The instructor shall:

Explain the principles of centre of gravity

Describe the importance of verifying the centre of gravity before commencing the lift

Demonstrate how to identify the centre of gravity

Ask participants for their reflections on the principles of centre of gravity in relation to suspended loads

The participants shall:

Explain and practice the principles of centre of gravity in relation to suspended loads

Explain and practice how the centre of gravity affects the slinging of a load

Discuss or test factors that may challenge centre of gravity e.g. unsecured cargo (liquid) and how to mitigate imbalance

SUSPENDED LOADS AND DROPPED OBJECTS

Learning objective:

The participants can explain the hazards and risks from suspended loads and dropped objects and how to mitigate these (Knowledge, intermediate level) The participants can take responsibility for recognising and take mitigating actions on hazards and risks from suspended loads and dropped objects (Ability, intermediate level)

The instructor shall:

Explain the risks posed by suspended loads and dropped objects

Explain that no person shall be under a suspended load at any time

Explain the hazard and drop zones associated with lifting operations

Explain, to the extent needed, where the hazard and drop zones for lifting operations in the work area are
