Inspections
The OSHA regulations are
very clear on the requirement for overhead system users to inspect their
equipment on a regular basis. In response, Piedmont Hoist & Crane
has developed the area's most thorough inspection routine and has trained
technicians
readily available to help our customers with the right periodic inspection
that meets their specific needs. We provide this service on a contract
basis for many customers and perform valuable preventative maintenance
while conducting the inspection.
If
you would like to know more about OSHA requirements and interpretations
as related to crane maintenance and operation, follow these links:

This CD-ROM
training program utilizes the multimedia format to show proper and improper
conditions and techniques of crane operation and daily inspection. The
program trains a company's overhead hoist and crane users and their supervisors
in the proper safety and inspection requirements as required by OSHA and
other codes for overhead hoists, cranes, slings, and below-the-hook devices.
Benefits
of CD-ROM Training
-
Low cost
per person. Much Lower than typical on-site Training.
-
No need
to take an entire group of people off the floor at one time, causing a
loss of production. The CD-ROM will allow you to train one individual at
a time.
-
Easy to
use. Once the supervisor sets up the user screen with the trainee's basic
information and has chosen any applicable options the computer is turned
over to the trainee. All the trainee is required to do is listen, look,
and click the mouse button.
-
Strong
testing and verification of comprehension. Upon completion of each chapter,
the trainee is required to answer a randomly chosen set of multiple choice
and true or false questions. The trainee must receive a score of at least
80% to be able proceed to the next chapter, a test score lower than 80%
causes the present chapter to restart. Upon receiving a satisfactory score
the trainee must still review the questions that were answered incorrectly
before proceeding.
-
Time Saver.
Supervisors spend less time setting up and administering the training.
-
Consistency
in training. All trainees receive identical training.
While

for a thorough 4-day Safety and Maintenance session, Crane Training USA®
