Rigging – Load Audit

Every year, dozens of employees are seriously injured in rigging-related accidents. Most are caused by slipping loads or sling failure—with often devastating consequences such as amputations or even fatalities. Even equipment in perfect condition can become deadly when used improperly.

Our AR-based rigging inspection simulator allows you to train your inspectors on complex, high-risk scenarios—without danger, without logistics, and with an impressive level of realism. Give your teams hands-on, mobile training, accessible directly from a smartphone or tablet.

An Immersive Simulator

Using the camera of a mobile device or tablet, trainees can visualize and inspect life-sized loads: steel beams, coils, pipes, valves…
All rigging equipment is modeled in photorealistic 3D, based on real-world cases and validated by the training teams at Bishop Lifting Products.

Users can walk around the objects freely, zoom in on details, and even adjust their virtual viewpoint to inspect the top of a tall load.

Training Objectives

This Augmented Reality simulator allows users to:

• Inspect different types of loads and rigging configurations before lifting
• Detect rigging errors in realistic scenarios
• Make informed decisions through integrated quizzes
• Receive instant feedback after each inspection
• Strengthen visual and technical reflexes to become certified rigging inspectors

Target Audience

This training is designed for:

• Trainee and active rigging inspectors
• Safety managers and technical trainers
• Crane and lifting operators
• Maintenance staff
• Anyone involved in load inspection or lifting operations

Included Training Scenarios

Explore 4 realistic inspection scenarios, each focused on a specific type of load, and practice identifying common rigging errors in lifelike conditions.

Scenario 1: Steel Beam Rigging Inspection (2.6 m)

Identify:

• An eye bolt without shoulder used in vertical lifting
• A chain sling with uneven leg lengths
• Hooks facing the wrong direction
• An incorrect type of sling used

Scenario 2: Lead Pipe Rigging Inspection (9 m)

Learn to spot:

• Sling angles too narrow (< 30°)
• Improper center of gravity positioning
• Slings placed too close together or unevenly spaced
• Configurations unsuitable for the load type

Scenario 3: Steel Coil Rigging Inspection (2 m diameter)

Watch for:

• Slings damaged by welding splatter
• Lack of protective sleeves
• Hooks attached directly to the coil strapping

Scenario 4: Cast Iron Valve Rigging Inspection (4.2 m tall)

Analyze:

• Sling capacity that is too low
• Incorrect use of shackles or hooks
• A dangerous attachment to the valve handwheel

Why Choose This AR Training?
