Task B-8 Rigs, hoists and positions load

Task Descriptor

Rigging is an integral part of the boilermaker trade. Rigging equipment is used to ensure loads or personnel can be hoisted in a safe and secure manner. Hoisting a load is lifting the equipment or components into place according to a lift plan. Positioning is done to deliver and align a load to the desired location. In many cases, it is a team effort involving operators, signallers, riggers and supervisors. It is important that boilermakers participate in hoisting and positioning operations for safety and to ensure that personnel, equipment, and components are protected during the operation. Fabricated lifting equipment must be designed by an engineer.
