Overview/Description The construction and manufacturing industries require many types of specialized equipment, including cranes, derricks, hoists, elevators, and conveyors. These types of equipment are used to move large and heavy loads, providing a critical link between construction design and project management. While each of these has its own specific purpose, each also comes with its own set of safety risks and potential hazards. Safely operating cranes, derricks, hoists, elevators, and conveyors require great attention to detail and advanced safety planning. After completing our online course, construction professionals will be able to identify the major causes of relevant accidents, develop plans to ensure safety before cranes and other equipment are used and point out precautions that must be taken when working near power lines.
