When using 2 hoists to lift loads using 2 equal length slings, it is important to know how far apart the hoists can be for the rigging gear being used. The Lift Point Distance (LPD) allows us to calculate the maximum distance between hoists for a given sling size and desired horizontal angle. We will now learn how to calculate this distance
