Elevating Work Platforms Training Online

An elevating work platform is a mobile construction equipment (device) which can be used on project sites to move/transport vertically, workers, tools and small quantities of materials to elevated working positions. Basically, an EWP comprises an elevated work platform with built-in control mechanisms, an extending arm-like structure called a boom and a frame or chassis.

In the construction equipment market, there are different variations of EWP, but they can be classified as belonging to one of two categories: Boom type or Scissor type.
