2025/2026
Once the lifting path is determined, the vehicle mounted capstan
should be moved as close as possible to what? - answer The lifting
stage area
An antenna that can transmit 360° - answer omni-directional
When inspecting wire rope diameter, the actual diameter is slightly
larger then the specified diameter. T or F - answer True
what is the factor of safety specified for rigging equipment? -
answer 5 to 1
exposure to ionizing radiation does what to the human body? -
answer permanently changes cells
a good rule of thumb is to stay 6 feet or more away from the
centerline of an active antenna. T or F - answer True
when you are using synthetic rope for lifting loads everyday, how
often should it be inspected? - answer daily
at minimum, how often should a competent rigger have refresher
training? - answer refresher training every 2 years (rescue practice
is annual)
, what is the factor of safety specified for synthetic rope? - answer 10
to 1
the person operating the capstan needs a clear view of what? -
answer the load and signal person
when using bolts or u-bolts with a slotted hole present, in what
order are the components installed? - answer flat washer, lock
washer, then nut
which government organization regulates tower lighting? - answer
FAA
it is correct to use a carabiner manufactured for PPE when lifting
loads. T or F - answer False
if a synthetic rope has a breaking strength of 7,600 lbs, what is the
maximum gross load that can be lifted? - answer 760 lbs
(7,600÷10=760///10% of the breaking strength)
when must a hard hat be worn? - answer When it is mandated by
employer policy. When overhead hazards are present. When
customer contract requires its use.
if a synthetic rope has a breaking strength of 6,600 lbs, and a
bowline knot is tied to make a lifting eye, what is the maximum
gross load that can be lifted? - answer 660 lbs (10% of breaking
strength)
due to the resonance frequency and the high power of broadcast
antennas, over exposure is almost always a problem. T or F - answer
True (the wavelength emitted by broadcast frequency, especially FM
signal, is the same size as the human body)
