Features: This book is a revised version based on the "Training Course for Crane Operators" (1st Edition). It is divided into two parts: training materials and a question bank. The content of the training materials includes:
An overview of the basic knowledge of cranes;
Safety technology of major components of cranes;
Safety protection and placement of cranes;
Safety operation procedures and maintenance methods for cranes;
Operation of general bridge cranes;
Operation of metallurgical cranes;
Electrical equipment of cranes;
Electrical circuits and principles of cranes;
Common faults and troubleshooting methods of cranes;
Technical proficiency requirements for crane operators and practical operation assessment examples—totaling 10 chapters.
The revised materials have added content on equipment maintenance and safe use, updated certain old standards and technical terms, and included a question bank. The question bank consists of true/false questions, multiple-choice questions, and short-answer questions. The answers are concise, accurate, and to the point. The sample assessments have a moderate coverage, with well-structured questions, making them suitable for self-assessment by learners and as part of the examination for technical workers.
After revision, the book is more concise and practical, making it convenient for workers to self-study and self-assess. It can serve as a teaching text for crane-related programs in vocational schools, training materials for beginners and intermediate crane operators, and a reference for relevant technical professionals.
