C&D Consultancy add to their demolition industry training course portfolio of courses

Following many requests from clients for a site based, demolition specific hot works course, C&D have launched their new hot works and oxy-propane cutting course. The course has been written to PTTLS standards to improve upon the existing hot works courses that do not include site based working, a major failing identified by C&D customers.

The new course will see both classroom and practical sessions where candidates will learn hot works permitry, hot works procedures, safe use of oxy propane equipment, basic structural awareness as to how steel buildings react when cut, and then they will, under the guidance of a fully experienced time served topman, carry out on site burning of steel structures to demonstrate hinge, sit and drop cuts in a site environment.

The session finishes with a demonstration and film footage of preparing buildngs for pulling and demolition by pulling.

Courses are available on site from 01 October and will be a full day in duration. The maximum number of persons that may attend will be 6 as that gives a good ration of teacher to learner. T cost will be £120.00 per person plus VAT.

We realise that this is considerably more than the conventional course, but the new course includes many more elements and one to one instruction.
