The ITI Master Rigger Course is designed for participants that have had some exposure (2+ years) to crane and rigging operations. The course exposes participants to a variety of equipment and applications which include multiple crane lifts, load turning, load drifting with chain hoists, jacking and rolling using mechanical, pneumatic and hydraulic systems, incline planes, and managing the center-of-gravity in all three axes.
On the fifth day, participants will complete written and practical exams for advanced rigging. Candidates who successfully pass the exams will receive a 5-year ITI Qualification. These qualifications meet the requirements of OSHA.
Course Subjects & Learning Objectives
Rigging Selection
Become familiar with basic rigging terms, rigging gear identification, and be able to determine the best hitch and rigging gear necessary for lifting various types of loads.

Determine tensions introduced to chain falls and come-a-longs during drifting activities.
Load Turning
Determine the transfer of weight during different methods of load turning.
Levers, Jacking, & Rolling
Determine load to winches, jacks, rollers, and floors during special load-handling activities that require moving the load horizontally.
Determine the load to rigging blocks and the mechanical advantage necessary to move a load vertically or horizontally.
Calculate sling tensions for off-level pick points using the Master Rigger’s Reference Card.
