1. GENERAL
1.1. Scope
1.1.1. This specification covers the requirements for the Rigging Procedure for
Aviation Fuel Farm Depot Project Dhoho International Airport.
1.2. Units
The metric units shall be applied as the measurement system in documents and
drawing. Nominal size of piping components shall be measured in inches for
which abbreviation of NPS
2. LIFTING REQUIREMENT
2.1. Qualification
2.1.1. Person who are engaged for rigging work shall have the rigger
certificate.
2.1.2. Persons who are engaged for rigging work shall be experiences.
2.2. Lifting Equipment
2.2.1 The Lift.
For the most important factor for making a safe lift are :
1. Determine the weight of the load. Included applicable weight of the
jib, load block, overhoul ball, hoist wire, rigging gear, etc,
2. Set the crane up solid and level
SMI-DIA-MOS-PIP-001

3. Stay within 50% of the capacity chart of the crane for non-lifting
permit load and within 70% of the lifting capacity chart of the crane
for lifting permit load provided
4. Always be conservative and do not reduce the planned safety factor
of the lift. Always allow for unexpected.
Other consideration for making a safe lift are :
5. Holt a pre-lift meeting with every one involve in the lift.
 Review the check list for the lift
 Explain the duties of each member of the crew, i.e. who s of the
lift, who signals lift, etc.
 Decide on the method of communication, either visual hand
signals or radio, etc.
6. Inspect the rigging prior to the lift
7. Use sling softeners between the slings and any sharp corners of the
load
8. Use tag line to control the load and keep workers away from the
load. No one should touch the load until it has been centered over
and just above the anchor bolt or support, and where applicable, has
been secured against horizontal and vertical movement.
9. Tape of the radius, do not step it off use the boom angle indicator.
The boom angle indicator should only use for as a reference.
10. Make a dry run without the load to ensure the lift pad is level and
the boom just clearance
11. Watch for boom draw down as the crane takes the load. Boom draw
down increases the radius and can result in the load drifting away
from the crane. Boom up as required to maintain the planned lift
radius, before floating the load.
SMI-DIA-MOS-PIP-001

12. Use tie back lines at initial pick between the crane and the load to
prevent the load from drifting away from the crane, especially on
capacity lifts where an increase the radius cannot be tolerated.
13. Use caution when the lifting operation includes swinging with a load,
especially 180 degrees. If the crane is not level and swing start on
the side with the load positioned at certain radius, the radius will
increase as the swing to the low side of the crane, possibly
exceeding the maximum radius for the lift.
14. Instruct the operator to engage the boom dog and release it only
when booming down is required
15. Instruct the crane operator to leave the house swing brake and/or
lock off during lifting
16. When working with crawler cranes, added safety can be obtained by
making all lift over the front of the track with the tumblers blocked.
As the crane takes the weight of the load, the qualified crane rigger
will constantly monitor the track rollers on the counterweight side of
the crane, if daylight occurs between the boom of the rollers and the
top of the track shoes, or settlement occurs under the load side of
the tracks, the lift will be stopped and lift condition checked (tipping
is starting to occur)
17. A qualified crane rigger will constantly monitor the outrigger as the
crane takes the load. If daylight occurs between the top beams and
the outrigger housing on the counterweight side of the load or
settlement occurs under the outriggers on the load side, the lift will
be stopped and lift condition checked (tipping is starting to occur)
18. A qualified crane rigger will constantly monitor the position of the
load block during the lift by standing directly behind the lattice
boom crane and looking through the center of the boom, or block is
SMI-DIA-MOS-PIP-001

not centered in the boom, the lift will stopped and lift conditions
checked (the boom is being side loaded).
19. Whenerver possible, make a dry tun with the load just clearing the
ground. Swing the load over the side, for example, and boom it out
into a clear area to actual radius. Check the stability of the crane at
the set radius, swing to the set angle over the rear of the crane,
boom out and set the load.
20. Do not make any lift in the winds that exceed the manufacturer
recommendation.
21. If the Crane is working at minimum radius, boom down before
releasing all the load weight. Failure to do so will result in bent
boom as the stretch comes out of the boom pendants.
22. Crane lift pads will be compacted to 95% of the modified proctor for
the soil/fill being used. The above list is not all inclusive, but contains
the most important elements needed to make a safe lift. The rigging
supervisor and the rigging crew will also follow all good rigging
practices and industry standard.
Rigging can do the erection and heavy lifts work use slings, to do those lifts with
direction as follows :
2.2.2 Sling
Sling requires special attention because they are almost always
subjected to severe wear, abrasion, and impact loading, cruising, kicking
and overloading. They also merit special attention because seemingly
insignificant changes in sling angle drastically effect the loading. When
using slings exercise extreme caution because you are going to be
developing unknown loads, under less than ideal circumstances, in less
than perfect equipment.
SMI-DIA-MOS-PIP-001

Failure to provide blocking or protective pads will permit sharp corners

to cut slings. Pulling slings from under loads will result in abrasion and
chinking. Dropping loads in slings or running equipment over them will
cause crushing. Sudden start and stop when lifting loads will increase
the stresses in them. Also improper storage will result in detemoration.
Because of the severe service impacted of slings, errors in determining
load weight, and the effect of sling angle on the loading, it is
recommended that all save working loads be based on a factor or
safety. (see 6.4.1a)
2.2.3 Safe Working Load
Because the difficulty in remembering the safe working load of the most
common ropes, the following rule of the thumb should be used to
compute the SWL tons.
Formula : SWL = rope diameter x rope diameter x 8
2.2.4 Sling Configuration
The term “sling” include wide variety of configuration for all fiber rope,
wire rope, chain one web. The most commonly used types in
construction rigging will be considered here because in proper
application can effect the safety of life.
The configuration sling as follows :
a. Single Vertical Hitch
A method of supporting a load by a single vertical part or leg of the
sling. The total weight of the load is carried by a single leg, the angle
of the lift is 90 and the weight of the load can equal the maximum
safe working load of the sling and fitting
b. Bridle Hitch
Two, three or four single hitches can be used together to form a
bridle hitch for hoisting an object that has necessary lifting lugs or
attachment. They provide excellent load stability when the load is
SMI-DIA-MOS-PIP-001

distributed equally among the legs, when the hook is directly over
the center of load’s gravity and the load is raised level.
SWL – (of sling vertical hitch) x H/L x 2
c. Single Basket Hitch
A method of supporting a load by hooking one point of a sling to a
hook, wrapping it around the load and securing the other point to
the hook. It can not be used on any load that is difficult to be
balanced, because the load can tilt and slip out of the sling.
 For vertical leg SWL = SWL (of single vertical hitch) x 2
 For inclined leg SWL = SWL (of single vertical hitch) x H/L x 2
d. Double Basket Hitch
A method of supporting a load by using two single basket hitches.
The leg of the hitches must be kept apart to provide balance but not
so far apart that the excessive angles are developed or to crate a
tendency for the legs to be pulled in toward the center. The angle
between the load and the sling should be approximately 60 or
greater to avoid slippage.
 For vertical leg SWL = SWL (of single vertical hitch) x 4
 For inclined leg SWL = SWL (of single vertical hitch) x H/L x 4
e. Double Wrap Basket Hitch
A basket hitch that is wrapped completely around the load rather
than just supporting as does the ordinary basket hitch. The double
wrap basket hitch can be used in pairs like the double basket hitch.
This method is excellent for handling loose material, pipe, rod or
smooth cylindrical loads because the rope or chain exerts a full 360
contact with the load and tends to draw it together. SWL is the
mean with double basket hitch.
f. Single Choker Hitch
SMI-DIA-MOS-PIP-001

This method is the same with single basket hitch, the other eye of
sling is being connected by itself (not connected by the hook), it
does not provide full 360 contact with the load, however, and
because of this, it should not be used to lift loose bindles from which
materials can fall or loads that are difficult to balance.
 For sling angle of 45 or more SWL = SWL (of single vertical hitch)
x¾
 Sling angle less than 45 are not recommended, however if they
must be used the formula is SWL = SWL (of single vertical hitch) x
A/B
A = height of load to connect eye to sling
B = length of sling from the connection of eye to sling to connect
sling with the load
g. Double Choker Hitch
A method that uses two single chokers attached to the load and
spread to provide load stability.
 For sling angle of 45 or more (formed by the choker)
SWL = SWL (of single vertical hitch) x ¾ x H/L x 2
 Sling Angle that less than 45 (formed by the choker) are not
recommended, however, if they must be used then the formula
is : SWL = SWL (of single vertical hitch) x A/B x H/L x 2
h. Double Wrap Choker Hitch
A method in which the rope is wrapped completely around the load
before REDbeing hooked into the vertical part of the sling. This hitch
is in full contact with the load and tends to draw it tightly together.
It can be used either singly on short, easy balance load in pairs on
longer loads.
SMI-DIA-MOS-PIP-001

 SWL  depending on the configuration, the safe working loads

are the same as for the single choker hitch or double choker
hitch.
3. LIFTING WORK
Every critical lifting must be provided with a rigging plan before the lifting will be
implemented. Rigging plan can be made by rigging engineer/supervisor (RED) on the
site or in the head office and it has its own procedures as follow :
3.1. Introduction
Observance of safe, economical and effective accomplishment of rigging work is
a mandatory policy, and may be assured by the integration and observance of a
well planned and equipped rigging requirements which should be reviewed and
supplemented by the Rigging Engineer/Supervisor and safety
engineer/inspector when necessary to assure safe and efficient rigging
operation.
3.2. Responsibilities
 Responsibilities for inspection and activities associated with the rigging of
heavy equipment rest primarily with the safety construction equipment,
tools and machinery inspection section in condition with the Rigging
Supervisor and the Field Engineer/Supervisor
 The Safety Inspector and the Rigging Supervisor shall review and
surveillance the execution of the inspection activity in these procedures to
ensure the compliance
 As the rigging of heavy equipment is critical in safety manner, to prevent
unnecessary accident, close communication among the Field
Engineer/Supervisor, and safety Engineer/Inspector is crucial to assure that
all safety requirements are satisfied.
SMI-DIA-MOS-PIP-001

3.3. Preparation
RED will prepare heavy lift schedule on this project as an advance of field
receipt of equipment. And next, a general interference drawing will be
prepared by Rigging Supervisor/Engineer and these preliminary studies will be
set to the field for comments and to provide early planning information as to
layout and location, type and size of the lifting equipment. Any changes
suggested by Rigging Engineer/Supervisor shall be approved by the
Site/Construction Manager.
The site/construction manager shall incorporate following elements in his
rigging program.
Study the effect of rigging activities on the possible delay of work adjacent
thereto and maintain a flexible approach to minimize this delay which might be
caused by late equipment delivery of some other schedule shift.
All field staff should be alert to unsafe practices and see that all rigging
equipment, materials and practices confirm to published standards and
procedure.
All detail of rigging arrangements and procedures must be reviewed with the
Rigging Engineer/Supervisor. Final verification for the actual lift shall be made
that all details are as built rigging performance.
Physical inspection of all rigging equipment and lifting gear shall be maintained
by Rigging Supervisor/Engineer. It shall be conducted on a routine basis and
reported to the Manager.
3.4. Inspection of Lifting Devices
 Lifting devices provided for all heavy equipment should be inspected in the
field prior to the erection of the equipment
 If welding shall be done after the rigging has been connected, grounding
clamp should be placed as closed as possible to the welded material and all
welding activities shall be performed according to procedure and standard
code.
SMI-DIA-MOS-PIP-001

3.5. Movement and Handling

For crane lifts to be made with the crane in a stationary position, the outriggers
must be secured in a “out” position. No deviation is allowed from this rule and
it applies to any weight load.
If the crane is required to move while loaded, the outriggers must be out and as
close to the ground as practical, and the load must always be secured.
Crane booms are to be lowered to the ground or properly tied down in the up
position each evening before leaving the job site.
Possible load reduction factors with various types of sling eye connections may
be avoided by using only the presses sleeve over a spliced connection type. No
other type should be allowed in the field.
3.6. Subcontractor Observance
If il 1m been decided io subcontract all or any portion of lhe rigging on project,
following details must be followed:
Subcontract documents spell that all items of subcontractor equipment and
tools shall meet client' Inspection standards and TIE requirement,
Subcontractor operation Shull conform in all details to client's requirement; as
safety ofpersonnel, equipment and property.
Subconiraci0ts provide planning and studies for cquipment utiliz,alion
sufficiently in advance af to permit review by REI) Rigging Engineer. Field
operations by the are he 811bject to the inspection. procedures as those on
client'g operations
Compliance with operational procedures or inspection standards will not
relieve the subcontractor od full responsibility safe and efficient handling.
3.7. Rigging Check List
Before a heavy piece of equipment can be lifted into place, the Field
Engineer/Supervisor and the Rigging Supervisor must complete all inspection
activities listed on the rigging check list form.
SMI-DIA-MOS-PIP-001

The checklist is designed to include the most heavy lifts. It should, however, be
reviewed and supplemented in the field for each specific rigging operation.
When all the inspection activities on the rigging check list have been completed,
the Field Engineer/Supervisor and the Rigging Engineer/Supervisor shall sign
the form in the space provide. Then the form shall be provided to the
responsible PIC. When these parties are satisfied that all items have been
checked and that safety lift can be made they shall sign and date the form
thereby giving their approval to proceed with the lift.
The completed and signed rigging check list should be kept on the field RED file.
3.8. Post Rigging Inspection
After the pieces of equipment has been placed which anchor bolted and sitting
on the foundation the field engineer should perform the following inspection:
a. Check orientation
b. Confinn that equipment is set on centerlines.
c. Check to deteminc that equipment will be plumbed after the anchor
bolts have been tightened.
* The field section o? [his legm work should calculate the amount of shims
required to properly level of plumb the equipment. These shims can be
installed much more easily before the lifting equipment is disconnected and
moved away.
* The position Of the sun must be taken into consideration when checking a
verticality Of plumbness, If the tower just be plumbed while subjected Le
the influence of the sun, it must be rechecked later under favorable
condition. Also the verticality must be rechecked after the foundation bolts
have been tightened accordingly.
3.9. Critical Lift

SMI-DIA-MOS-PIP-001

Critical lift are those where the load weight is close to the rated capacity off the
crane. When lifting load weights heavier than 75% of the rated capacity it is
recommended that the following precaution be taken.
* Supporting Surface
The ground must be compact and stable
* Blocking
Unless crane sits on a concrete pad, outrigger blocking must be used and
crawler should be provided with crane mats on pads or cribbing.
* Level
The machinery deck or boom foot pins must be absolutely level.
* Center gravity of the load

The Location od the load’s C of G must be determined and the crana hook
positioned above it.
* Load Radius
The radius must be measured exactly
* Boom length
The boom length must be determined exactly
Note : Eventhough the actual load weight may be compared to the base rating of
the crane it can still he a critical lift. For example, a 1 ton load on a 50 ton capacity
crane may seem insignificant but if that crane's rated capacity at the actual load
radius is only 2,400 lbs (1 metric Ton). The lift becomes critical.
* Boom Angle
The boom angle, if necessary for determining the crane’s boom angle indikator.
* Wind
Wind effects must be considered and the lift delayed if the wind loads are
SMI-DIA-MOS-PIP-001

significant. If the wind speeds are in excess of 30 mph do maket he lift. If the
speeds are more than 20 mph consider postponing it.
* Reefing
The reefing must be balance
* Load Ringging
Check for adequency and security. The weight of rigging must be known
exactly
* Operation
All control, machine and load movements must be made slowly and smoothly
possible,
3.10. Signaling
Riggers arc frequently required to act a signalmen for crane or hoist operators
and there are a number of precaution and procedures should be deserved in
these Operations. Whenever the operators is obstructed in his path view of any
parts of equipment iravei, its load or components, a competent signalmen is
required 10 be stationed
 In full view of operators
 With a view of the intend path of equipment travel, load or components,

yet clear of the intended path of travel and should assist the operator by
keeping that part ofthe equipment under observation when il is out of the
operator's view and by communicating with the operator and using pre-
arranged visual signals or a suitable communication system.
The Signalman Must :
 Be fully qualified by experience with the operation.
 Weal light visibility gloves

SMI-DIA-MOS-PIP-001

 Use hand signals only when condition are clearly visible to the operator
 Being responsible for keeping the public and all unauthorized personnel out
side the crane's operating radius.
 Direct the load to avoid the passing over anyone
This signalman must communicate constantly with the crane operator, either
visually with hand signals or by radio throughout the operation, If operator
loses contact with signalman for any reasons he must stop the movement of
the crane until communication is restored, Where the loads are picked up af
one point and lowered at another, two signalmen may bc required, one to
direct the lift and one to direct the descent.
If it is desired to give instruction to the opergtor better provide qnother signal

system, the operator should be instructed to stop all hoisting motions. Hand
signals can be use effectively when the distance between the operator and
signalman is not great, but the radios should be used when the distance or
atmosphere conditions prevent clear visibility. Adequate lighting and signaling
agreements must be åvåildble during night work and Adequate lighting and
signaling agreements must be available during night work and the equipment
must not be operated when either is in adequate. When two or more
operation. He should analyze the operation and instruct all personnel involved
in the proper positioning, rigging of the load and the movement should be
made also. He should ensure the operator of and the signalman are
communicating to each other via audio system.
SMI-DIA-MOS-PIP-001

3.11. SPECIAL CONDITION
Caution :
The determination of these parameters by untrained pergonnel or by using tin

calibrated instruments is extremely hazardous,
APPROVAL BY THE ABOVE MANAGERS IS
ABSOLUTELY MANDATORY
1. The Designer and checker cannot be the same person. The Lead engineer
can function in a in dual roles as Designer / Approver or checker / Approver
2. RED Engineer ig a graduate engineer Who has been trained in a TJE RED
office and competent in the methods and means to design, evalunte, plan,
overgee, and estimate transportation and lifting activities during any phase
Of construction project.
3. The Site Manager, The Rigging Manager, and the Project Manager will
determine if the lift requires an independent review by a third pally rigging
consultant.
