This #ClimberConnection video includes an informative, back and forth dialogue between narrator Sean Gilhooley and James Ruedlinger, VP of Engineering for Fullwave Tower & Broadcast. During their conversation, Gilhooley and Ruedlinger highlight a few of the revisions that were made to the A10.48-2023 standard that all stakeholders in the industry need to know. Some of the important revisions in the updated version of the standard include the transition in verbiage in the document from "should" to "shall," the change from references to “rigging plan” to “construction plan,” the addition of an electrical safety section, the introduction of new exceptions and operational requirements, and other relevant updates in nomenclature and definitions.
