Lesson 1Pedestrian exposure: loads travelin' over people an' walkway interactionsDis section examines how pedestrians are exposed to crane hazards, includin' loads over people, walkway conflicts, an' blind spots, an' describes layout, barriers, an' procedural controls to separate people an' loads.
Mappin' pedestrian routes an' crane travel pathsRules for never travelin' loads over personnelUse of barriers, exclusion zones, an' signageSpotters an' taglines near walkways an' doorsManagin' visitors an' non-routine foot trafficLesson 2Environmental an' workplace hazards: obstructions, poor lightin', slippery floorsDis section reviews environmental an' workplace hazards dat affect crane safety, includin' obstructions, poor lightin', slippery floors, an' noise, an' explains how to inspect, report, an' correct dese conditions.
