Rigging and Lifting
In many activities that relate to rebuilding a civilization or building a new part of a civilization involves the safe lifting and manipulation of heavy objects. It is helpful to have references for members to learn this valuable skill.
DOE STANDARD HOISTING AND RIGGING
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Hoisting and Rigging Standard is intended to be used by supervisors, line managers, safety personnel, equipment operators, and any other personnel responsible for safety of hoisting and rigging operations at DOE sites. The standard quotes verbatim or paraphrases (with minor editorial changes for consistency) the requirements of the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the therein refenced standards of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). It also encompasses, under one cover, applicable hoisting and rigging codes, standards, and regulations, eliminating the need to maintain extensive (and often incomplete) libraries of hoisting and rigging standards throughout DOE.
