Industries/Rigging & Entertainment

Rigging crews, venue-ready before the truck dock opens

ETCP cards verified, truss and hoists inspected, safety docs signed — H3ight shows you which crews are clear to fly steel before load-in starts.

What breaks down between venues

Every venue has its own rules — your paperwork travels as fast as your rig.

Cert requirements that change per venue

ETCP arena and theatre certs, union cards, venue-specific orientations — the roster that passed inspection in one city gets flagged at the next load-in.

Truss, hoist, and motor inspections between stops

Chain motors, truss, and rigging hardware inspected per interval and per venue requirement — paper logs scattered across trucks and warehouses.

Last-minute crew calls with no qualification check

The call steward needs five riggers tonight — but which five have current cards and venue clearance? The answer lives in someone's head.

Safety docs that arrive after the rig is up

Rigging plans, fall protection docs, and sign-offs faxed, emailed, or handed to the house rigger late — or not at all.

Records venues and insurers actually ask for

Inspection certificates, training records, and incident logs for the venue, the insurer, or the AHJ — rebuilt from memory after the show.

Load-in day on the board

An example H3ightboard for a production rigger — every column is a venue or call, every signal is a reason the gig can or can't start.
