A rigging assembly can look fine at first glance and still fail an inspection because the paperwork is expired, missing, or no longer matches the gear in use. That is usually when the question shows up fast: when does rigging need recertification? On active jobsites,...
A failed inspection usually does not happen because the job team forgot the equipment. It happens because the paperwork, test method, or certification trail was not ready when the inspector asked for it. That is why a clear proof test procedure matters. If you manage...
If an inspector asks for proof load documentation and your equipment is already staged, the clock is running. This industrial load testing guide is built for contractors, rigging crews, equipment managers, and project leads who need certification handled fast so the...
