Our Work

Rigdar Ltd offers practical technical input for suspension planning, venue coordination, and compliance preparation during the early stages of event and exhibition projects.

Consultancy focuses on ensuring overhead installations are viable, properly coordinated, and aligned with current regulatory standards.

Rigging Layout Review

• Review of suspension layouts
• Assessment of motor point positioning
• Truss configuration planning
• Basic load distribution guidance
• Coordination with production drawings

Where structural engineering approval is required, we work alongside qualified third-party engineers.

Venue & Technical Coordination

• Liaison with venue rigging departments
• Assistance with point allocation submissions
• Trim height planning
• Build sequencing advice
• Identification of access constraints

Ensures suspension planning is technically viable, compliant with venue requirements, and aligned with approved load schedules.

Documentation Support

• Method statement preparation
• Risk assessment assistance
• Lift planning coordination
• Support with load schedule preparation

Final engineering calculations and formal sign-off remain the responsibility of qualified structural engineers where required.

Project Planning Support

• Early-stage feasibility advice
• Equipment requirement planning
• Identification of technical limitations
• Coordination between contractors

Consultancy services are delivered on a project basis and can be provided independently or alongside other Rigdar services.

Automation solutions involving synchronised chain hoists and controlled motion systems are delivered in collaboration with specialist technicians.

Projects requiring coordinated lifting or scenic movement are assessed individually to ensure appropriate technical capacity and compliance.

Automation services are currently delivered through partner specialists and may be subject to capacity limitations depending on project scale.

Please contact us to discuss automation requirements at an early planning stage.

Available Through Specialist Technicians

• Synchronized chain hoist movement
• Controlled lifting sequences
• Coordinated multi-point motion
• Scenic movement systems
• Event-based motion effects

Automation systems are operated and programmed by qualified automation technicians.

Project Assessment

Automation requirements are reviewed on a project-by-project basis, considering:

• Technical complexity
• Venue limitations

• Scheduling constraints

Compliance & Safety

All automation systems are installed and operated in accordance with:

• LOLER
• PUWER
• Work at Height Regulations
• Venue-specific safety procedures

Structural engineering and load approvals remain subject to appropriate sign-off where required.
