About Tall Structures
Industrial climbing skills are used in a wide range of work situations, most commonly in the telecoms and stage rigging industry but also in industries as diverse as offshore drilling, power generation and chemical processing.

A primary consideration is to free the hands for work tasks and to minimise any possible fall. Whenever possible, work positioning techniques are used, with fall arrest equipment employed as a safety back-up.
 The mixture of theory and practice worked particularly well and the facilities enabled us to practice realistic scenarios in a controlled environment. One of the best courses I have attended
