ECITB TML03 Moving Loads
ECITB TML03 Moving Loads - Move an uneven load through an obstructed area
Description
Introduction
Technical Assessment – Interpret and carry out a lift plan for a rigging operation – sling, lift and move an uneven load safely through an obstructed area.
Technical Test Objectives
The candidate must have the skills, knowledge and ability to demonstrate that they can safely and accurately sling, lift/move an uneven load through an obstruction in accordance with recognised industry regulations and procedures.
Technical Test Content
The candidate would complete an online question bank with an 80% pass required followed by practical elements:
The complicated construct lift for this test will simulate the following conditions;
-
Confined space with restricted headroom.
-
Lifting over simulated unprotected plant or equipment.
-
Cross hauling.
The candidate must:
-
Follow a lift plan for the specific rigging task.
-
Sling, lift and move the load safely.
-
Follow a risk assessment / tool-box talk against the specific rigging task.
Target Audience
Any personnel who require immediate proof of highly job-specific skills and knowledge tested against specific criteria for personnel involved in load lifting and moving operations
Certification
On completion, successful candidates will receive an ECITB Certificate of Achievement valid for 3 years (stage 3)
Unsuccessful candidates must wait a minimum period of 4 weeks between the unsuccessful test session and the next test session to allow for a period of training to address any skills or knowledge gaps.
Revalidation
These tests are valid for a 3-year period. If the candidate attends within this timescale, they would attend a Stage 4 reassessment.
Stage 4 is reassessment of Stage 3 every 3 years to check competency levels are met.
