Liebherr offers free wind training

WRITTEN BY

Liebherr is providing four free one day training courses in the UK on covering the influence of wind on crane operations.

The courses will be held at Liebherr GB’s training centre in Biggleswade, Bedfordshire during week 27 – July 2nd – 6th . They are open to all those who need to be able to determine when it is safe to lift, such as Appointed Persons and crane operators.

The course is designed to give participants a deeper understanding of the effect of wind on loads with a large sail area. There will be an emphasis on wind turbine erection, but the content will be applicable to all lift planning, involving loads with a large surface area to weight ratio and high drag co-efficient.

All those interested should contact Sonya Plosky sonya.plosky@liebherr.com or Melissa Knights Melissa.knights@liebherr.com in the Liebherr sales department.
