We're putting together some prep material for our upcoming SRT course and I'm curious what experienced techs wish they'd known going into it.

Also, shameless plug: we're hosting an SRT course August 24th-28th in Arlington, Washington. If you're interested, mention this Reddit post when you register and we'll take $25 off. We love this Reddit community!

Real-World uses of SPRAT and RA Skills

One question we get asked a lot is where do these SPRAT/Rope Access skills get used in the real world? Industrial rope access was extensively used in the efforts to install and test this unique interior monorail support system over an extensive planter system. We faced challenges with the design of this job, but the use of rope access was central to the implementation and commissioning of the system, and we could not be happier with how it turned out!
