The PDF files may also be printed but diagrams will not appear as sharp as in the classrom version. A bound printed copy - the classroom version - will be supplied during any course in which you enrol, or assessment for which you register. The Assessment Instruments present course content in two or three parts. The reason for the resolution/ quality of presentation for the PDF files being downgraded is for quicker transmission. |

Assessment National assessment criteria:
DOGGING FORMULAS Natural Fibre Rope D mm X D mm = SWL in kgs F.S. W.R. D mm X D mm X 8 = SWL in kgs Weight ÷ 8 = ü answer (FSWR in mm) Chain Grade L = 30, M = 40, p = 50 D mm X D mm Grade X 0.3 = WLL in kgs GradeT =32 D mm X D mm X 32 = WKK in kgs Angle Factors 30 ° = 1.93 60° = 1.73 90° = 1.41 120° = 1.00 Load Factor Square Load = .5 Round Load = .75 Task 1 : Slinging Techniques D mm X D mm X 0.79 X H m X WOM + Tare (in kgs) then Weight of Load ÷ 2 ÷ 8 = ü answer = Gives Sling Size (in mm) Task 2 D X D X Grade X 0.3 = L, M, P, Grade Chain D X D X 32 = T Grade Chain DX D X Grade X Angle Factor = SWL of Chain Task 3 D X D X 8 X Angle Factor X Reeve Factor = SWL(in kg) Maximum length of beam = Answer divide Steel Beam Weight Task 4 : Crane Usage WXR ÷ B ÷ N ÷ V = ü answer = Packing Size W = Load plus half the mass of the boom (in tonnes). R = Distance from load to back wheel support (in meters). B = Distance from end of outrigger to back wheels (in metres). N = Number of outriggers on the loaded side. V = Soil bearing pressure (in tonnes per square metre). Task 5 Rated Load - Hook Weight = Crane Capacity Task 6 Structural/Instability |
