Since I have started with my Seminars in May 2008, I have presented it to more then 1100 participants in a total of 50 Seminars. As one of the pioneers in presenting my experience in a two day “Heavy Transport & Lifting” Seminar, I decided to make all the Seminar slides available for those of you who want to educate themselves as well as their staff. I realize that there is very little written down on “Heavy Transport & Lifting” knowledge. Since June 2010, I have stopped presenting my Seminars “Heavy Transport & Lifting”. Since July 2012, I have started presenting again on request of some clients with “In Company” Seminars and have committed myself to Breakbulk USA to do seminars in Mumbai (5+6 Dec 2012), Cape Town (April 2013), Antwerp (May 2013), Sao Paulo (Sept. 2013), Istanbul (Oct. 2013) and Mumbai (Dec 2013).

Below some video impressions of the Seminar “Heavy Transport & Lifting”

Trailer Tipped Over

The Seminar slides can be presented as a two day Seminar,  starting at 09:00 hrs and ending that day around 17:00 hrs. The second day again at 8:30 hrs and ended at 17:00 hrs..

In the Seminar a lot of attention is dedicated to Safety, accident analysis and the discussion on how these accidents can be avoided will be dealt with as well.

This extensive two day Seminar is especially useful for i.e. Marine Waranty Surveyors, who know all about loading and securing heavy lifts on board of heavy lift vessels, but very little about transport of the heavy lift to the vessel, and that is where often the accidents happen, but also Freight forwarders and Project engineers find my courses very valuable

The Seminar is focused on operators, supervisors, engineers, sales engineers, freight forwarders and everyone who wants to know more about safely handling heavy lifts. All basic principles of “How to handle Heavy Lifts Safely” are presented. For more informatyion, check on the detailed program under Seminar/Masterclass Program

HISTORY

End Oct. 2009, the  English Two Day Seminar on “Heavy Lift Transport & Lifting” was given in The Netherlands.  In this Two day course Richard Krabbendam explained the basic principles on heavy transport and lifting. More then 50 Seminars were presented since May 2008.
With an introduction on Forces and Masses, he soon jumped on to the real things in explaning three- and four point suspension systems on platform trailers, stability of trailers as well as stability of cranes and loads. In the second day he continues on Maintenance and Inspection issues, Cost estimates, Project Planning, Skidding & Jacking Techniques, Load-outs of extreme Heavy Loads and Safety & Risk Analysis. Also a number of accidents are analysed in order to avoid makeing the same mistakes again.

All participants were handed over a 200 page FULL COLOUR Hand-out (2 slides/page) containing all the 390 slides presented during the course. Also a double DVD with the title: “Lifting the Big Ones” was made available after the course.

These DVD’s feature historical videos on lifting and transportation of large refinery columns and reactors using one, two or even three cranes. Using conventional as well as Self Propelled Modular Transporters (SPMT’s). Single as well as multiple crane lifts are shown in the videos as well. The course was well received by the 38 participants during the two Day Seminar in Oct. 2009. Participants came from Insurance Companies, manufacturers, crane and transport companies, freight forwarders, classification societies, offshore contractors, consultancies and ranked from machine operators, instructors, project engineers, commercial representatives to planners and company directors. At the end of the second day a multiple choice test was done by all participants. A Certificate will be issued to all participants

“In Company” Seminars in English or in Dutch on request

A FULL COLOUR Hand-out of all presentations will be given to participants. This Hand-out is a detailed book which can be used as a Reference book after the Seminar and contains a lot of tips and trics as well as pictures and sketches.
