A larger bored rig and a larger driven rig may share a construction site but not the same CPCS category. This A48 page is for an existing cardholder arranging renewal against the larger bored-piling entry.
NOCN's current A48 category document describes an operating-weight band above 20 tonnes, with a mast or leader and rotary boring equipment. These details explain the category identity. They are not instructions for choosing a foundation system or operating the rig.
A47 is the smaller bored-rig entry, while A46 is the larger driven-rig entry. Identify the method before comparing weight bands, and use the exact card and machine details if there is any uncertainty about the boundary.

The current NOCN tool maps A48 to Piling and pumping of materials. Study the assigned material online at your own pace. NOCN uses shared renewal modules; the equipment background here does not promise a separate machine-only syllabus.
✓ TrainifyHUB category booking fee: £75.
✓ After purchase, contact hello@slbrothers.co.uk with your reference and relevant card codes.
✓ We check the booking and arrange external enrolment manually.
✓ Follow the individual access instructions supplied.
Approximately 2 hours is a planning estimate, not an official minimum or a scheduled class. Your pace, review needs and NOCN’s current material affect actual time.
Retain the learning evidence supplied by NOCN and check the separate current card-renewal requirements. CPD does not automatically renew your card or award new practical competence.

These details explain the category. The actual current NOCN renewal material governs what you study.
A worker is asked to arrange renewal after operating a larger rotary rig. They confirm A48 on the card rather than choosing A46 because both adverts mention rigs above 20 tonnes. Any additional card entries are listed for a mapping check.
✓ Review the assigned piling-and-pumping material with your existing rotary-rig work in mind.
✓ Check additional categories and possible shared learning before booking.
✓ Retain completion evidence and meet the separate renewal requirements.

A booking for an existing Piling Rig Bored above 20 tonnes cardholder should be based on the formal category, not a similar-looking machine or a broad site job title. A47 is the smaller bored-rig entry, while A46 is the larger driven-rig entry. Identify the method before comparing weight bands, and use the exact card and machine details if there is any uncertainty about the boundary.
✓ Confirm the precise card entry before enrolment.
✓ Use the related pages to resolve similar names.
✓ Ask for a mapping check when several categories need renewal.
✓ Plan independent learning around your commitments.
Keep the evidence supplied through the NOCN learning route with your A48 renewal records. Follow current provider instructions and the separate CPCS application process. TrainifyHUB does not issue a replacement competence card or promise automatic renewal.
