  3. POSITIVE CONNECTION ROTATION EQUALIZATION CENTER OF GRAVITY Rigging Concepts

  4. Positive Connection

  5. Trunnion Characteristics • Not a positive connection • Enables two part sling • Easier to unhook • Requires a vertical pull • Good for hooking below top • Obstructions above trunnion a problem

  6. BTH-1-2005: Below the Hook DESIGN CATEGORY A: • PREDICTABLE LOADS- UP TO 50% IMPACT • LOW LOAD CYCLES • ALL CONSTRUCTION LIFTS SHOULD FALL INTO THIS CATEGORY DESIGN CATEGORY B: -UNPREDICTABLE LOADS- UP TO 100% IMPACT - HIGH LOAD CYCLES -SEVERE ENVIRONMENTS

  7. BTH-1-2005: Category A • DESIGN FACTORS: • BASED UPON YIELD STRESS • 2.0 FOR LIMIT STATES OF YIELDING OR BUCKLING • 2.4 FOR LIMIT STATES OF FRACTURE OR CONNECTION DESIGN • OTHER LIMITATIONS FOR SPECIFIC CASES

  8. BTH-1-2005: Below the Hook ALSO INCLUDES: • PROCEDURES FOR MECHANICAL DESIGN • SHEAVES • GEARS • DRIVE SYSTEMS • BEARINGS • SHAFTS • FASTENERS • PROCEDURES FOR ELECTRICAL DESIGN
