ANSI A10.8, “Scaffolding Safety Requirements,” has just been released as the new 2011 Edition. This 116-page standard establishes minimum criteria of knowledge and performance requirements for a qualified rigger in the construction industry. It is designed to assist in achieving reasonable safety of all persons and materials during the process of or as the result of rigging, lifting, or movement of loads.
ANSI A10.8-2011 is one of a series of safety standards that have been formulated by the Accredited Standards Committee on Safety in Construction and Demolition Operations, A10. It is expected that the standards in the A10 series will find a major application in industry, serving as a guide to contractors, labor, and equipment manufacturers.
A comparison document intended to note the changes in the new 2011 edition from the previous 2001 release is also available.
