Appreciate the clear how to video but would have been better to explain when to use each knot (i.e. what's the best use case for each?)

I understand the whole “always read the notes “ mentality. But you can’t ask a question with a wrong timetable chart lol

Thanks for the extra mind fuck

I ran cranes for 30 years .After all these fly by night Crane Schools and NCCCO has taken into effect .A friend of mine sent his son thru a school in Fla.At 26 years of age he passed the exams on just about certs needed. This was done as to see just what he got out of this bull shit.The kid is in pre med school .And his dad is a retired operator as well as myself His son passed these exams like it was a stupid test. He came back and this kid don't know hydraulic fluid from transmission fluid. He didn't take the practical .Cause he was our bait to these schools . These Two week crane schools is a disgrace to this trade The IUOE is where I came up thru a 4 year apprenticeship program .The days when true operators were operators .These crane schools is a damn money making racket .And should be outlawed They can not turn a certified Journeyman out in 2 weeks .No Way in Hell. Since these money making rip off classes get shut down we will continue to see more and more accidents Good God wake up yall Go back to old school Send these young kids out as a oiler 1st Or in a taxi Fleet let the young truck drivers pulling counterweights learn the hard way .EARN THE SEAT DONT PAY TO GET INTO A SEAT.

Need to eliminate comments that they really did a great job they made it so much worse, its sooo much easier to have a calculator, scratch pad load chart on the desk if front of you, thats not even something you can argue, just because they had some cheating in texas they went to a completely on line testing system that opens it up to an exponential degree of cheating, when all they had to do was supervise test environment and issue is solved, no its an issue of so called smart people changing something and making it even worse because they don’t really understand the problem!!!!! duhh !!!

The load chart section is so poorly done. It’s like working off a 1995 computer and just navigating through the pages eats up all your time and you can’t even clearly see the range diagram.

Its not a trick question. It's logic. The Line pull (or the lower chart gross capacity or max jib rated capacity) dictates what the crane can lift period. Think about it. A 500 ton crane with a single part line close in . One cant pick up 450 tons. However At a 300 ft radius 29,000 would overturn crane over or break jib if jib max jib rating is exceeded. You take deductions from lowest value from: 1. Line pull ( cable capacity ) 2. Max Jib rating . 3. Gross capacity on chart at that radius. At large radius the Chart most likely will be lower than line pull of max jib capacity.

Very clear; excellent demonstration and way to learn well; THANKS

Anytime u computerize some processes you make it more difficult without a paper copy in front of you to reference fast. You have to constantly click back on the computer consuming time. This is so idiotic even a kindergarten knows this.

That is a lie its not easier so why u say that

OPT doesn’t work ask me how i know

you did 159 x all right 4

You deducted for 4 parts I don't understand

Very simple well demonstrated. Thanks

Fantastic thank you keep up the amazing work brother

Anyone having issues with load charts look for Tier one crane. Trace Obrian HIS training class on line are the bomb !!

How do you find the answer to the 2nd question from this load chart? For over the side?

I thought that bowline was pronounced "bowlin", as if there was no "e" at the end.

Great videos I’m taking my NCCO test next week everything helps.

DO NEED SOME HELP ! how do I get in contact with directly /

This is a bad idea 😢 my husband has been a great operator for 30 years and passed all his recerts by PAPER and failed 2 times with this new online system just a shame !!!! Change is not always a good thing!!!! Pass this along

Seems to me the answer should be 0. It ask if net cap. Off the MAIN BOOM. And chart says the the 30' jib is erected. Can't pick off the MAIN BOOM when the jib is erected.

It’s sucks, I’d rather good ol paper. Thank you for your tutorial

Stupid idea!!! Makes me not want to take my cco. Everyone says scrolling to look up the charts makes you run out of time. The fact that the test is timed like this is also ridiculous!! There should be an option to paper test or computer test. I have quite a bit of computer experience and still is a bad idea but what else can you expect this nccco crap is all for $$$$ and nothing else. Drs don't even have to retest after they take their boards. But crane operators have to rest fully after 5 years?!! It's all about the money!! Here we are with a shortage of crane operators and this nccco pencil pushers out to make it so hard you can't pass the test and are out of pocket time off from work and test money!! What a joke!

Fantastic video really helped me

The biggest mistake people make with a cco is paying for training of any kind. The original cco requirement consisted of 10 years crane experience before qualifying to take the test, if you are not an experienced crane operator then you shouldn't be getting a cco and an experienced crane operator wouldn't need any training to past the test. In my 28 year crane career I've seen a lot of changes and all for the worst. Paying for a cco only makes you a legal lever puller just like a so called union "operator " it does not make you a crane operator. There isn't a single crane operator who would have an issue with what I just said, if you find yourself offended or feeling you need to " correct " me, then you might just need a little more seat time. Sincerely yours, 80,000 + incident free seat hours and counting.

Why would they mess with peoples livelihoods and put stupid tricky questions in the test?

Do you have practice sheet ??

First off you’d be wrong with a boom angle of 69.1 you’d move up to 70 not 75. So in order to get the correct answer you’d scratch your head raw because none of the answers are correct

Thanks

So what is the correct answer??

How can i attend the training

how long does the course last after i pay for it and wear can i find it for future use does it time out???

Thank you

I dont think im gonna like this new testing, the white board, load chart are going to take longer to navigate. I liked it better b4 we could use a paper chart and load diagram and paper for our notes, deductions, and an actual calculator!! Im really dreading having to recert next year.

What if your gross is 3 times less than your line pull and you need to subtract ? This was a ?for me on my exam. I can pass the 26 question exam but the hour limit always expires before im through.Does Ncooo require you take it in a hour?

Does the course include instruction on TSS?

Where can I buy just new study materials

Do you have any practice materials to buy

It sucks. But, it's out of our control. I'm old school.

This guy just wants you to watch the ither video.He is not going to give the answer, so that we can figure out how to get to it. He knows and is playing go games in his replies here.

Thought you could use a 8.5 X 11 dry erase board?

I am dreading this test Monday. Screen is too small and hard to scroll without loosing information

Appreciate the updates. CCO needs to add a little more time for us old farts using computers 😡. Lol

Perfect explanation & example Yes they do put tricky questions and try to jam you up !!!👍🏾

10/10🎉 love it !! First timer here 100% clear

So...what's the correct answer ? E-none of the above ? We mark through 59,200 and write in 59,000 ? The old adage " Finish What You Start " seems appropriate here. I understand your intent was to illustrate a common test error by taking deductions from "gross capacity" or the "line capacity" when the two values were compared and the math indicated a limitation or adjustment was called for. By not finishing to work the problem and referring to another video is NOT a popular method. I sat through four long years of electrical theory. The school asked us to rate our instructors, the instructor who's mantra was "answer is in the book dig it out for yourself " he was literally booed off stage at graduation ceremony. One received a standing ovation, an Electrical Engineer for General Electric, who was light years ahead of us but went the extra mile to keep it simple and never leave the student hanging or an unsolved problem on the blackboard, or theoretical question unanswered. He never gave away test answers but was so thorough in teaching and pacing that there was no confusion and no one was left behind in acquiring the necessary instruction for understanding and passing any test.

Can i have the pass?

Pretty sure you were supposed to go to 160' of line in the range diagram, instead of trying to guess it. That way you know your not gonna be under weight on your calculations. That's the way it was taught in school and on most other videos.
