Once Upon A Project - Stories and Their Influence on Project Performance What are the stories people share about your project? Do the stories promote success or failure? Do they indicate engagement and respect, or disappointment and exclusion? Every project is a story, and the story can unfold as one of great success or crushing failure. The most effective projects use storylines that promote integration and excellence. The most successful project leaders are able to harness the power of stories to build and maintain a strong team, focus on core values, ensure effective reviews, and openly address risk. This session will consider the use of stories for project success, and suggest the most effective leaders are skilled at the art of story. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs. Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies. Fractions of PDUs may also be reported. The smallest increment of a PDU that can be reported is 0.25. This means that if you spent 15 minutes participating in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.25 PDU. If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.

Using an excavator as a crane is a common practice in certain construction and lifting operations. Using the digger as a crane requires appropriate training and skills However, it’s important to note that excavators are primarily designed for digging and earthmoving, not lifting. Using an Excavator as a Crane involves some inherent risks, and it’s crucial to follow safety guidelines and manufacturer recommendations. To book the NPORS Excavator as a Crane training or test please contact us to schedule your Training Here are some general considerations and steps you might take when using an excavator as a crane: 1. Check Manufacturer Guidelines: Always consult the manufacturer’s guidelines and specifications for the specific excavator model you are using. Manufacturers provide load charts and other essential information to ensure safe operation. 2. Understand Load Capacities: Know the lifting capacities of your excavator at various boom lengths and angles. Exceeding these capacities can lead to instability and accidents. 3. Use Proper Attachments: If your excavator is equipped with a lifting attachment, make sure it is designed and rated for lifting operations. Using inappropriate attachments can compromise safety. 4. Stabilise the Excavator: Ensure that the excavator is on stable ground. Extend the outriggers or stabilisers to provide additional support and prevent tipping. 5. Inspect the Excavator: Regularly inspect the excavator for any signs of wear, damage, or malfunction. Pay particular attention to the boom, hydraulics, and other critical components. 6. Position the Excavator: Position the excavator in a way that allows for a stable lifting operation. Avoid working on slopes or uneven surfaces. 7. Rigging and Lifting Techniques: Use proper rigging techniques, and ensure that the load is properly secured. Lift the load smoothly and avoid sudden movements. 8. Maintain Clear Communication: Establish clear communication between the operator and any ground personnel involved in the lifting operation. Use hand signals or radios to coordinate movements. 9. Avoid Exceeding Reach Limits: Do not exceed the excavator’s reach limits. Lifting loads beyond the recommended reach can lead to instability. 10. Training and Certification: Ensure that operators are properly trained and certified for lifting operations. Holding the NPORS Excavator As A Crane bolt on is essential for lifting operations Operating an excavator as a crane requires specific skills and knowledge. 11. Weather Conditions: Consider weather conditions, especially wind speeds, as they can affect the stability of the excavator during lifting operations. Always prioritise safety when using equipment for tasks it wasn’t originally designed for. If the lifting requirements are frequent or extensive, it may be more appropriate to use a dedicated crane with the necessary capacity and features. Remember, safety is paramount in any construction or lifting operation. Frequently Asked Questions 1. What is Excavator As A Crane Training, and why is it necessary?
