Your checkpoint

A one-page scope summary with a two-column covered/excluded task table and three worked boom-length determinations with answers

Week 2

Boom-type elevating work platform scope of work and boom length determination

  • Calculate boom length from given horizontal reach, vertical height and articulation data in at least six practice problems

  • Distinguish rated capacity, platform capacity and safe working load, and explain how radius changes each

  • Interpret a written load chart description to select an acceptable boom configuration for a stated task

  • Describe three site conditions that alter the effective working envelope and record how each is accounted for

Your checkpoint

A scored 10-question boom-length and capacity worksheet with at least 80 percent correct and corrections annotated

Week 3

Licensing eligibility, training and assessment requirements

  • Outline the eligibility criteria for a boom-type EWP licence, including age, identification and fitness requirements

  • Sequence the training pathway from enrolment through formal training, logbook experience and final assessment
