Crane Industry Services (CIS)<\/a>, Carrollton, Ga., launched an updated Lift Director training course in February. Designed to be more interactive, the three-day course features case studies and an emphasis on understanding load charts.<\/p>\n

\u201cA Lift Director is the person responsible at the moment of the lift,\u201d explains Cliff Dickinson, President of CIS<\/a>. \u201cOn small lifts, there can be overlapping responsibilities, and some people may wear more than one hat. For example, the crane operator may also be the lift director. But in larger companies there\u2019s the lift director, project manager, the site supervisor, the general contractor\u2019s representative\u2014they\u2019re all individual jobs,\u201d said Dickinson.<\/p>\n

Following language in OSHA 29 CFR 1926 Subpart CC and ASME B30.5-3.1.3.2.2, Dickinson explains that a lift director must understand his or her role in the context of their own organization.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"

New interactive Lift Director training program from CIS features case studies, emphasizes load charts.<\/p><\/div>\n

A Lift Director, regardless of size or structure of the organization, must have knowledge about cranes and rigging, setup and operation. \u201cWe review and analyze load charts, rigging and angles, load weights, swing dynamics, etc.,\u201d said Dickinson.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Although there is no pre-requisite for the class, it\u2019s best suited to someone with a good working knowledge of cranes and of rigging.
