Earners of the Ventura College Rigging 1 Badge have learned the basic skills to safely move loads of different shapes and sizes using a variety of methods. After successfully completing this badge students understand concepts such as the basics of rigging, load weight calculations, and which rigging type to use for a given situation. They can perform skills like installing an eyebolt, caculating crush force or assembling a rope bridle. Learners use a one-ton gantry crane to learn these skills.
