Carry Deck Crane Safety
Carry deck cranes are compact, maneuverable machines that move heavy loads through tight indoor and industrial spaces where larger cranes cannot fit. But their ability to travel with a suspended load makes them especially dangerous to the people working nearby, and most crane injuries happen to workers on the ground, not the operator. That's where training comes in. In this course, we'll cover what carry deck cranes are, how they tip over, the struck-by and crush hazards they create, the safe work practices that keep you clear, the roles behind a lift, and what real incidents can teach us about staying safe on site.

What You'll Learn
- What Is a Carry Deck Crane?
- How These Cranes Stay Upright and Tip Over
- Hazards to Workers Nearby
- Safe Work Practices Around the Crane
- Rigging and Signalling
- Reading the Site: Pre-Lift Awareness
- Rules and Responsibilities
- Learning From Real Incidents
About This Course
Carry deck cranes are compact, powerful machines built to move heavy loads through tight indoor and industrial spaces, turning up in refineries, plants, warehouses, shipyards, and construction sites where larger cranes simply cannot fit. Here's the part that matters most: the people most often hurt or killed around these cranes are the workers nearby, not the operators. That's why everyone on site needs to understand the risks. This course focuses on keeping you safe when you work around a carry deck crane, showing you how to recognize the hazards, stay out of harm's way, and know when to speak up.

• Describe what a carry deck crane is and recognize its main parts

If you get to a certain point and don’t fully understand the material, you can pause and go back for a review. On the other hand, if everything makes perfect sense, you can go straight through the entire course right to the test.
How does virtual proctoring/testing with webcam monitoring work?
When you start your test, you will be monitored via your webcam. If you disappear from the screen or appear to be consulting another device or other material, you will be disqualified from the course.
