Crane Operations
Crane operations involve the use of cranes, which are large machines designed to lift and move heavy objects. They are commonly used in construction, shipping, and manufacturing. Operators control the crane from a cab or remotely, coordinating movements with precision to ensure safety and efficiency. Key components include the boom (the arm that extends), hoist (the device that lifts), and the hook (which carries the load). Safe operation requires knowledge of weight limits, proper rigging techniques, and awareness of the surrounding work area to prevent accidents and ensure the safety of workers and equipment.
