Rigging 2 is the senior technical rigging role for nonroutine, complex, or high-consequence load handling. The role validates load information and rigging calculations, selects and verifies advanced rigging arrangements, leads pre-lift preparation and communication, and directs load control through final placement. Rigging 2 identifies when engineering, manufacturer, lift-director, or formal critical-lift review is required and mentors less experienced rigging personnel.

• Lead hazard reviews for nonroutine lifts, including load stability, stored energy, access, obstructions, ground and landing conditions, weather, and simultaneous work.
• Review lift packages, drawings, manufacturer data, and site conditions for load weight, center of gravity, pick points, clearances, landing support, and sequence.
• Determine or validate load weight and center of gravity using approved data or calculation methods; calculate sling-leg tension and load distribution for complex arrangements.
• Select and verify multi-leg systems, spreader or lifting beams, hoists, specialized attachments, and custom lifting devices for condition, compatibility, capacity, and approval.
• Develop and verify rigging arrangements for irregular, offset, fragile, or difficult-access loads within approved limits and protect engineered lifting points from unintended loading.
• Lead pre-lift briefings and plan signal coverage, radio language, handoff points, hold points, stop conditions, and additional signal-person positions when required.
• Direct test lifts, incremental balance corrections, tight-clearance movement, staged holds, controlled handoffs, and final placement.
• Coordinate with crane operators, foremen, safety personnel, installation teams, drivers, and adjacent crews to remove field conflicts before movement.
• Lead controlled recovery when a load must be landed, re-rigged, repositioned, or returned to the starting point because conditions changed.
• Identify when engineering, manufacturer, lift-director, or formal critical-lift review is required and prevent unapproved changes to capacity, configuration, or method.
• Inspect and troubleshoot recurring rigging damage, specialized gear, hoists, jacks, skates, rollers, cribbing, temporary supports, and stored-energy controls.
• Lead small rigging teams or work segments, mentor employees in Rigging Helper and Rigging 1 roles, and document difficult-lift findings, near misses, and corrective…
