Reliable and applicable rigging physics is a central theme throughout this book. In the Management Level many factors are addressed that contribute to the success of a rope rescue incident and to the sustainable growth of a rescue program.The Operations Level looks at the nuts and bolts of rigging including: a robust chapter on knot craft; extensive anchor aptitude development, comprehensive treatment of belay systems and the many devices and techniques associated with belaying; Mainline issues associated with lowering and raising system; new and refreshing litter configurations; and vertical mobility. The Technician Level digs into the the reasons behind the actions, plus, the exploration of more advance techniques as seen in various highline systems, and mid-wall pick-offs. In this section the reader will find a detailed presentation of rigging physics, including vector analysis, friction basics, compression/tension, and torque.From the apprentice to the journeyman rescuer; highly beneficial rigging knowledge for all levels of expertise is available in this book.

Book excerpt: A Practitioner's Study: About Rope Rescue Rigging - Second Edition - This book is written as a study for practicing rope access and rescue technicians. This is not an entry level manual. For those of you who are thinking about entering the technical rescue field there are an endless number of high-quality instruction manuals on the market. Having said this, any book about rope rescue is merely a reference and should only be used by an apprentice in conjunction with a quality school of rescue and under the guidance of a seasoned lead instructor. The First Edition of this book was published in 2013. During these past seven years I have substantially modified and evolved my own rope access and rigging practices. To this point, I felt the need to publish this Second Edition to better reflect my current views on rescue rigging. Additionally, I have received numerous suggestions from those of you who purchased the First Edition. For this I am truly grateful, and I've tried to reflect these suggestions in this latest publication. The fact is that shared research and development is the most important aspect of our worldwide rescue community. Hopefully this book finds a place of positive influence within this time-honored trade of rope access and rescue. Thank you for your participation and support! Pat Rhodes

Book excerpt: Minimalist Wilderness Rigging is the third volume of 'A Practitioner's Study' series. This book is a continuation of the first two volumes - 'About Rope Rescue Rigging' and 'Insights Into Confined Space Rescue'. The primary focus of this book is the wilderness environment and the advanced rigging skills needed to attempt a rescue in this harsh domain.Wilderness rigging specific to rope rescue has always been the ancestor to what we might consider today as modern NFPA driven fire/rescue rope rigging. How ironic that we go back to many of those ancestral rigging roots to address new modern-day rescue challenges - most notably, REMS (Rapid Extraction Module Support) designed as a command component for rescuing wildland firefighters and the time honored traditions of wilderness search and rescue teams.The common thread with all aspects of wilderness rescue is that there's usually not an abundance of immediate advanced medical and rescue support. As such, standard fire/rescue rope rescue equipment will most likely not be available. These challenging factors mandate that the limited few rescuers attempting a wilderness rope rescue need to be at the top of their game when it comes to minimalist rigging.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are numerous high quality training manuals on the market today that address the typical OSHA driven requirements for confined space rescue. It was never my intent to write an additional one. This book is simply my sharing of perceptions on a few confined space considerations that I have personally encountered during my career of rescue work in and around the confined space environment. It should also be noted that this book is an extension of my previous book A Practitioner's Study About Rope Rescue Rigging. I have included some direct rigging information from the Practitioner's Study About Rope Rescue Rigging, and in a few instances, such as the sections addressing knot craft and highlines, I have added changes and/or improvements to the rigging practices that are directly taken from the Practitioner's Study. My prime central belief in the confined space realm is; never become complacent. Confined space work must be researched, calculated and absolutely accountable. Ultimately, I would say my most important central foundation in this world of rescue is...study and practice daily, as much as possible, ongoing and never ending. These considerations are the driving force behind this book. It would be foolhardy for me to attempt a publication that claims to have all the answers for confined space rescue. However, I can share with you some of my personal experiences, favorite knots and evolving rigging concepts in hopes that you may find some bit of information that you can use and possibly add to your bag-of-tricks.-Pat Rhodes-
