Since I have started with my Seminars in May 2008, I have presented it to more then 1000 participants in a total of 45 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”. Only on special request I might do some “In Company” Seminars.

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

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 Product

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.
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

This Seminar is practical and focused on employees (from operator, supervisor to project manager / director, Marine Warantee surveyors etc.) in the heavy lift transport- and crane rental business.

By means of extensive Power Point presentations and Video footage you will be shown how it should not be done and how it can be carried out correctly.

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.

During the two day Seminar you will get an inside view of the heavy lift transport- and lifting branch.

There is sufficient opportunity for questions.

Coffee, thea , lunch on both days as well as drinks and dinner on first evening are included.

The equipment (2 Nos) has to go from India (Kolkata) to Bangladesh(Dhaka). The transportation involves crossing over of large span bridges having water flow in all season.

    We look forward for your comments on the subject

  2. Greetings Richard,

    Thank you for connecting with me.

    Whilst we are not in need of the technical issues of H&S whilst performing the actual handling, as this is controlled by our Strategic Heavy Lift partners, this said, should you ever decide to host a seminar in cape Town South Africa, we would definitely have at least two or four of our Project team participate.

  4. I work for Columbia Industries in Hillsboro Oregon, USA. We build transport vehicles for the oil industry for moving drilling rigs. We have developed methodology for defining stability for vehicles where the suspension system is very flexible. Are you interested in information regarding elastic responce of these type of systems?

    Do you have any plans for travel to the USA in the near future?

  5. is it possible to conduct seminars at mumbai india. we would be eagar to look forward meeting &gaining from your knowlegde on subject.

    Dear Sunil,

    Of course I can conduct a Seminar in Mumbai, but I have selected to do it in Dubai next week, as a lot of business is going on in Dubai and traveling and access to Dubai is for me and others a lot easier then going to Mumbai (Visa required, customs could be difficult etc.)
    If you can generate enough participants or other potential candidates send me a mail, I might be able to organize a Seminar in Mumbai. But, I can not spare the time in endless mail correspondences. I might think of it end this year / beginning next year (2010-2011).
    Let me know your thoughts on this. Mail me at heavyliftspecialist@gmail.com
