Thorough training of support personnel is crucial to safe rigging practices. Of the injuries and deaths associated with improper rigging practices, the causes of these tragic accidents are often due to support personnel such as riggers, roughnecks, and deck hands not knowing the correct method of securing certain loads, overloading rigging components beyond their lifting capacities, and getting caught between unpredictable moving loads.This course covers, in detail, the requirements of riggers and crane support personnel under API RP 2D.
