Shall
Verbal form used to indicate requirements strictly to be followed in order to conform to this training standard and from which no deviation is permitted. Verbal form used to indicate that among several possibilities one is recommended as particularly suitable, without mentioning or excluding others, or that a certain course of action is preferred but not necessarily required. The theoretical point in an object through which the downward force, induced by gravity, of the object can be said to act. Maximum mass which an item of lifting equipment is designed to sustain in a given, certified, configuration. Maximum mass or force that an item of lifting equipment, a lifting device or an accessory can safely use to lift, suspend, or lower a mass without fear of breaking. Actual finished length of a sling, inclusive of fittings, from bearing point to bearing point. A lifting operation where the load is moving relative to the crane, e.g. the mass, measured between the crane hook and the load varies and can induce shock loading onto the crane.
Should
Centre of Gravity
Working Load Limit
Safe Working Load (or Rated Capacity)
Effective Working Length
Dynamic Lift
Static Lift
A lifting operation where the load is not moving relative to the crane.
Human Factors
Human factors are an established science that uses many disciplines (like anatomy, physiology, physics and biomechanics) to understand how people perform under different circumstances. Machine for cyclic lifting and handling of loads suspended on hooks or other load handling devices, whether manufactured to an individual design, in series or from prefabricated components. A job site safety briefing covering the risks and hazards of the task being performed. Ability covers our capacity to act responsibly, safely and independently or in cooperation with others. When we act, we make use of our knowledge and skills together with our both personal and professional experience, attitude and personal characteristics. Instructor’s feedback should focus on what the participant must adjust to perform correctly. Feedback may imply dialogue where the participant reflects on their understanding or performance.
