Many say British Columbia’s quest to certify crane operators can’t happen soon enough. The Canadian province’s plan to have all operators of boom trucks, tower and mobile cranes hold a competency certificate was to be in place
last July. The drive was delayed by the sheer volume of registrants, irking impatient certification proponents. In the midst of this impa-tience, an operator’s on-the-job death brings the need for certifica-tion front and center. In February, Crane Hot Line reported that the process, being coordi-
nated by the British Columbia Association for Crane Safety (BCACS), was going great guns. Some 10,000 operators had walked through the doors of the association, created in late 2005 to implement certification. At that time, Executive Director Fraser Cocks remained positive, but news reports since then imply that the implementation deadline has been put off indefinitely. Currently, crane operators in British Columbia are not required to have any formal training or experience. If an employer agrees the operator is competent to run a crane, that’s
all the government needs to know. According to news reports quoting his employer, the crane operator on a major Vancouver rapid-transit project in late January was certified “by the project” to run the crane that toppled and pinned him in the cab. The death of the operator, who had worked on that job for five months, has drawn attention to the lack of certi-fication and prompted calls for quicker implementation of an operator certification program. Cocks says the association staff are working as fast as they can to launch the program, and in fact are registering about 50 opera-
tors a week. But at 10,000, the number of registrants is actually double what was expected. BCACS is also charged with establishing ground rules for the process, including written and hands-on exams that must be passed by July. It is sending assessment teams to each jobsite to test registrants in the comfort of the cranes they run everyday and alleviate them from having to travel to some other testing facility. BCACS is also responsible for establishing crane operator standards and seeing that certification is deemed “official.” As the non-profit organization gets deeper into the opera-tor processing phase, other organizations are stepping in to help. One agency is the B.C. Industry Training Authority (BCITA), working to determine a standard. BCITA’s apprenticeship training body will also credential the certification, and as it is a government agency, will lend more weight to the certification, says Cocks. He adds that the groups are still working out the details, but his organization welcomes the help. In taking on this massive task, BCACS understood its role would be as the industry’s voice in outlining the credentialing aspect, he says. But in moving forward, the not-for-profit has the lion’s share of the process. “We’ve been wanting and expecting to see” more participation by the provincial government, says Cocks. Implementing the certification process itself is a huge task to undertake. With 10,000 operators waiting to be licensed, any organization would consider seeking outside help. An untimely death in the midst of striving to establish this new industrywide policy only intensifies the need for certification as soon as possible. z

Amonster-sized tower crane is undergoing erection in Fort McMurray, Al-berta. A Kroll K10000-L, manufactured in Denmark and owned by Syncrude
Canada Ltd., is currently being erected by Syncrude to be used as the main heavy-lift crane for the construction of the Sulphur Emission Reduction Project. Work-ing in the Athabasca Oil Sands Deposit, Syncrude is the world’s largest producer of crude oil from oil sands. The tower crane is located on a congested site, which lies above a sophisticated network of underground pipes. At press time, it was anticipated that the crane would be operational by the end of February. According to Ernie Sheaves, a crane and rigging specialist on the Syncrude Emission Reduction Project, the tower crane is topped at its maximum 423 feet. Installation of jib components took place in January. “We are using a Terex-Demag CC2800 600 metric-ton crawler crane and a 300-metric-ton Liebherr LR1300 crawler crane to install the jibs,” Sheaves said. The Kroll tower crane has a reach of 337 feet with a lifting capacity of 100 tons at the tip. The crane’s reach extends to 7.5 acres, which is more than the area of six football fields. This particular tower crane is equipped with a four-camera system supplied by Orlaco Crane Cam Inc., which will enable the operator to view all lifts and be able to see all around the load. The camera system consists of a load view, two winch views, and a counterweight view. According to Sheaves, there are only 14 Kroll K10000 cranes in the world. “Thirteen of them are in Asia, the Middle East, and Ukraine. This is the first time for a tower crane of this size to be in Canada and only the third time one has been used in North America.” z

Guest PerspectiveGuest Perspective
By Robert Harrell
in general, Tony Dotto’s explanation of cribbing and distribution of loading on the ground by the crane is sound. However, his explanation of soil clas-
sifications as it relates to OSHA unconfined compressive strengths found in Subpart P of the 29 CFR 1926 standard can lead to a false sense of security. The example of soil bearing capacity using the unconfined compressive strength of Type A soil is mis-leading because there is very little Type A soil in the United States. Types B and C soils are more common. OSHA Subpart P standard for excava-tions requires soil to have an unconfined compressive strength within certain ranges to be classified as Type A, B or C soil. This classification is intended to guide the selec-tion of the type of protective system to be used in the trench or excavation. The methods OSHA allows for clas-sifying the soil’s unconfined compressive strength (Appendix A of Subpart P) per-mits the use of a penetrometer, a shear vane or a thumb penetration test performed by a trained competent person. The margin of error for a penetrometer or shear vane is approximately 30 to 50 percent. The mar-gin of error for a thumb penetration test performed by a knowledgeable and quali-fied competent person is approximately 20 to 40 percent. And, it is also required that the soil sample be taken from the spoil pile (dirt excavated from the trench) within one hour after the soil was dug up and depos-ited at least two feet back from the trench.
What about cranes? Subpart P requirements for the un-confined compressive strength rating has nothing to do with undisturbed soil’s ability
to support loads or forces placed on the ground. It only applies to the cohesiveness of the soil. There is a big difference between soil bearing capacities and Subpart P’s re-quirements for unconfined compressive strength for shoring purposes. When set-ting up a crane, or other equipment, the soil should support the weight of the equip-ment, any loads lifted by the equipment, and any dynamic forces (wind, rain and snow) affecting the equipment’s stability. Any cribbing used under an outrigger pad or crawler track must be able to sup-port the weight of the crane, the load lifted by the crane and any dynamic forces applied to the crane and its load. Cribbing, when properly used, should keep the crane level. While some people say that the crane has to be not more than 1° out of level (equal to a 1-foot rise in a 100-foot run), the specific requirements specified by the crane manu-facturer for level must be followed for the load chart capacities to be applicable. In Bob’s Rigging & Crane Handbook, de-veloped by Bob DeBenedictis and current-ly available through Pellow Engineering, there is a soil bearing capacity table that provides the following general guidelines:
In the American Concrete Pumping As-sociation’s safety manual, there is a section on Permissible Pressure on Various Types of Soil. It classifies the allowable bearing pressures based on the soil types.
Both charts provide useful information if you are a soils engineer or are familiar with the supporting capacities of the ground the crane (or concrete pumper) is set up on. The charts do not address the issue of the ground being wet (rain or runoff of water). Dirt loses its bearing capacity when it gets wet. If there is not a soils report available to classify the bearing capacity of the soil, the equipment operator should at least:1. Set the equipment up with the outrig-gers extended and the tires raised off the ground. Check for any settling or compac-tion created by the outriggers.2. Apply a load to the equipment by barely raising the load off the ground to see if any settling is created by the added weight.3. Move the load through the quadrants to see if this causes the outriggers or crawlers to sink into the support surface. If any of the tests result in the outriggers or crawlers sinking into the support sur-face, proper cribbing should be used under the outriggers/crawlers. If the equipment continues to sink into the ground, causing the equipment to be out of level, a qualified engineer or the manufacturer should be consulted to determine what can be done to keep the equipment level and not sink into the support surface. z

P lanning a truck-mounted crane purchase in the near future? There’s plenty to keep in mind before you head out to the show-
room, and top on the list is the fact that you’ll likely be dealing with more than one dealer. Whether it’s a knuckleboom crane or a boom truck, there are three parts to the specifying equation, and as the buyer, you are the one with the answers. “The customer understands his business better than I do. I don’t eat and sleep it everyday,” says Nick Emmanouilides, sales manager for truck dealer Sierra Freight-liner Sterling Western Star, in Sparks, Nev. But because the chassis provides the base
for the crane, it would behoove you to get to know your truck dealer as well as you know your crane dealer. Build a trusting relationship with a voca-tional truck salesman, one that is focused on what you need. If you’re growing your fleet, know what you like and dislike about the equipment you already operate. And if you’re buying your first stick- or knuck-leboom crane, know how you’re going to use it before you set foot in the showroom. The very first question you’ll be asked will be, “What do you want to do with it?” That determines the payload, which dictates the size and weight of the chassis. “There is a lot to take into consideration
when it comes to specking a truck and crane,” says D.W. Flenker, national crane sales man-ager for Robert’s Diesel Works Inc., Orlando, Fla. “If you do not marry the crane to the cor-rect chassis it causes many problems down the road for the truck and the crane.” The specifying process “should be closely coordinated [among] all three parties,” says Joan Ausbury, president of Cranes & Equip-ment Inc., Peoria, Ill. “The end user will provide weights of his payload and the size crane he needs; the truck dealer can provide various options on chassis measurements and the chassis empty weights; and the crane dealer can perform a weight distribution and stability calculation.”
By Lucy A. PerryProduct Focus
Erroneous specs mean more work in the shop. Robert’s Diesel Works’ shop had to add an extra rail frame to this roofing contractor’s articu-
lating crane chassis when the specs came in wrong. later, the shop had to move the truck’s tandem axle back and make new drive lines.
Installed on the after-frame of a tandem axle chassis, this truck-mounted crane actually requires a stronger frame with higher resistance-to-bending moment (RBM). “Most often, the crane dealer will fabricate a full sub-frame from behind the cab to the end of the after-frame to achieve stronger RBM,” says Joan Ausbury of Cranes & Equipment Inc.

Flenker, whose company outfits both stick and knuckleboom cranes, agrees. “Many times we are sent trucks that do not have the correct length and correct frame rails strengths,” he says. “We tell customers all the time that we would like to be in the loop when it comes to their truck purchases.” Working with the purchaser and the truck company, the crane dealer “can save them many thousands of dollars by ordering the correct frame rails and battery boxes, fuel tanks, air brake dryers, cross members, and exhausts, at the correct measurements to make the crane package work on a customer’s truck,” he adds. Buyers of truck-mounted cranes will pur-chase new chassis models under almost as many different scenarios as there are applica-tions for these cranes, say truck dealers. The crane is likely to outlive the truck chassis, so often it boils down to the end user’s needs and current situation. For instance, buyers occasionally need a new chassis as the base for a tried-and-true crane they already own. Or, they might be looking for a brand new boom truck to add to a fleet. Often buyers know what’s worked
in the past, and they want to clone that to expand job prospects. Finally, there’s the buyer who’s looking for a piece of equip-ment to perform a specific job. In this case, the buyer should give the dealer the require-ments and have the salesperson shop the machine for him.
Know your dealer It helps to have a clear understanding of your needs when you meet with your truck sales representative, says Emmanouilides. “[The customer] has an application in mind, and knows exactly what this truck will do. Or he may come in and say, ‘Here’s my situation, how can you improve it?’” The truck dealer “must be informed that the chassis will have a crane mounted on it, what kind of crane it will be, and where it will be mounted,” stresses Ausbury. That may seem obvious, but Samantha Par-lier of Kenworth puts it this way: “The biggest fundamental, anytime you’re specking a chas-sis, is knowing what you’re trying to achieve,” says the vocational marketing manager for the Kirkland, Wash.-based truck manufac-turer. “There’s a difference between the picker
truck in the oil field and the [building supply] delivery truck that’ll offload trusses. That’ll drive your crane and chassis selection.” Both Emmanouilides and Parlier believe communicating your current and future crane needs with your chassis dealer is crucial, even if you’ve done business with him before. “That customer has to find a provider they have confidence in,” says Em-manouilides. “That provider has to have an understanding of how the customer is going to use the crane, and utilize his strengths to identify that and build what they want.” The Sparks, Nev., multi-line dealership he represents does a tremendous amount of work in the mining industry, he says, and deals with chassis needs for a specific applica-tion. “Some of my customers’ boom trucks live and die in the mines – they never get on paved roads.” It helps that Emmanouilides knows that industry well, because sometimes the customer wants to know how he can make his cost per hour more efficient. “A customer will say, ‘Tell me what’s new.’ It’s our responsibility to keep him informed. Or, we’ll suggest innovations, but sometimes the customer just wants the tried and true. It’s our

The specifying process should be closely coordinated among three parties: The end user must provide payload weights and crane needs; the truck dealer can provide chassis options and empty weights; and the crane dealer should perform a weight distribution and stability calculation.

job to offer improvements and innovations, but ultimately, the customer and the [crane] outfitter decide what gets incorporated.” If it’s a new relationship you’re forging with a truck dealer, listen to the questions he asks you. “‘What do you like about your existing product?’ is what I ask first,” says Emman-ouilides. “But the most critical question is, ‘What do you not like about what you cur-rently use?’ This is particularly true if he’s using Brand X and he’s coming over to one of my OEMs. It’s our obligation to help the client be more efficient.” He says if the customer’s comments are negative, he knows how to help. “Maybe they say, ‘They can’t do this to the engine,’ or ‘They can’t put the exhaust where I need it to be,’ or ‘They can’t adjust to my needs.’ Maybe the salesman retired and they don’t like his replacement. But at least I know what to address.”
Know your crane The building block in specifying the truck is the frame rail and axle capacity. Having the right equipment for the weight of the crane is crucial, Parlier says. “The heavier the crane weight, the heavier the axle capacity required. It also depends on what you’re planning to lift with the crane and carry on the chassis.” It’s important that the boom truck shopper “buy enough truck,” says Ron Reese, com-mercial sales manager for Ed Stivers Ford in Waukee, Iowa. That includes enough gross vehicle weight, and enough frame because “cranes/booms with outriggers require heavy frames,” he adds. In addition to the type and weight of the crane, the chassis dealer needs to know the intended location of the crane on the chassis. “The two most common locations on Class 7 or 8 trucks is immediately behind the cab or at the end of the chassis,” says Parlier. “Putting the stress behind the cab is a totally different load on the chassis [than putting the stress at the end of the truck bed].” Sometimes it’s a matter of geography. “[We] also want to maximize his payload for the state [he’s located in],” says Flenker. “This sometimes requires adding another axle ei-ther in front or behind the tandem axle of a truck.” The placement of the axle is usually determined by the location of the crane, as well as whether the chassis will have a steer-able tag axle or a fixed tag axle, he adds. It’s also important to have a chassis frame with enough “resistance-to-bending moment
(RBM),” says Ausbury of Cranes & Equipment. “Due to the force applied to the frame rails of the chassis by the crane, a proper frame is imperative (single frame, double frame, even triple frame). The crane dealer can provide the required RBM based on the size crane the customer is interested in.” A huge amount of mass sitting at the back of the frame rail puts the stress in the form of an upward bow on the frame rail. All the weight is on the back, and the weight of the engine and cab are on the front. But look at a configuration where the crane is behind the cab and it’s pushing close to the middle of the frame rail, according to both Parlier and Ausbury. “The forces exerting on the rail are differ-ent. You need a frame with enough RBM for those two scenarios. It’s important to lock down that crane position when you talk to a salesperson,” says Parlier. “If the truck dealer knows a crane is be-ing mounted behind the cab, his first thought should be, ‘Am I specking a heavy enough front axle?’” adds Ausbury. Likewise for crane outfitter Robert’s Die-sel Works: “Working with the customer and the truck dealer we can speed the process of mounting time,” Flenker says. “At times we have to strengthen the frame rails with a full sub-frame. Because of some height issues, we sometimes have to incorporate the sub-frame with the bed. Many times we can eliminate problems of mounting and specking the cor-rect truck for the crane just with a phone call to the truck dealer.”
Weight distribution Weight distribution is another issue to keep in mind when it comes to crane loca-tion because it affects the weight on the axles of the truck. “If your crane is all the way at the back end of the truck, it’s pushing on one end and lifting the weight off the front, so you specify a lighter front-end weight,” says Parlier. “But you won’t be able to if the crane is right behind cab because the weight is go-ing right to the front axle.” Plus, the crane and the payload affect weight and balance in relation to the wheel-base of the truck, says Ausbury. “Too long or too short of a wheelbase could overload one or a group of axles before being able to maxi-mize total allowable on the boom truck.”
Leaving room for features Frame space availability also factors into the type of chassis purchased. Most boom trucks require outriggers for balance and stability, and the truck’s design has to in-clude room to package fuel tanks, batteries, and the exhaust system, and still have space to fit the outriggers. “A clean back-of-cab is imperative. If you have to mount the crane 1.5' from the cab to clear exhaust or fuel tanks, that’s wasted space, and makes
15CRANE HOT LINEcranehotline.com • MARCH 2008
Chassis Buying
the truck longer, heavier and less maneuverable,” says Parlier. All cranes require PTO on the transmission in order to operate, and consideration must be given to the room required for the PTO. “The exhaust system can com-promise the PTO location,” says Parlier. “A factory-installed PTO is of great benefit because the buyer knows it’s installed correctly. Plus he can reduce the cost of the crane installation if it’s installed at the fac-
tory, because there’ll be a charge for the PTO and the time to install it.” The location of the exhaust/muffler is critical, especially if the crane is mounted behind the cab. “Since the 2008 emission standards, the exhaust/muffler cannot be re-located to make room for anything mounted behind the cab,” says Ausbury. “Particulate separators on the new trucks have to meet the emission levels,” explains Flenker. In addition, Flenker continues, the particulate separator, situated immedi-ately behind the cab, eats up from 22 to 27 inches of truck-bed space. And because it
reaches temperatures from 900° F to 1,500° F, it must be clear of any hydraulic hosing to prevent a fire. “We have the option of installing it on the passenger side under the door, but it’s still sticking out behind the cab,” Flenker says. Issues such as these bring home the fact that it’s imperative the buyer work with both the crane outfitter and truck dealer so that all requirements can be communicated for the best end result.
Other things to think about It’s also crucial that the end user buy enough horsepower “This is a bad place to skimp,” says Reese, the Iowa Ford truck deal-er’s rep. “If they are going to pull a trailer, they will need plenty of horsepower. And even if they’re not, I suggest 250 hp plus.” Perhaps often an afterthought on the part of the crane buyer, driver comfort is more important today than ever before, says Parlier. Turn angle, turning radius, and how quickly the operator can turn the truck around in tight spaces are all crucial to driver safety. “Driver comfort is impor-tant with driver retention being an issue
these days. But with all the truck has got to do, turn angle, visibility, and safety are all up higher on the list,” Parlier says. She says first and foremost, the truck has to perform and do its job in the most efficient way possible. “It has to carry the most weight legally and safely. Once the buyer has made sure the PTO, crane and outriggers can fit, he’ll say, ‘Okay, what else can I spec to make it more comfortable?’” Today’s cabs offer added leg and head room, among other extras. “While buyers might overlook the comforts, they’re im-portant to an operator who’s in that truck 8 to 10 hours a day,” Parlier adds.
Keeping your crane happy Boom truck buyers also have to be con-cerned with the life of the crane once they’ve taken it home. Rick Byle, a salesman with Great Lakes International Trucks, in Kala-mazoo, Mich., says boom trucks are “main-tenance intensive.” They require someone to take care of both the chassis and the crane. For this reason, you need to consider how accessible both crane and truck dealers are to your operation. z

Lattice booms get dinged up in trans-port, bent during everyday opera-tions, and of course, catastrophically damaged in accidents. Lacings can
generally be repaired, but when chords are damaged, a crane owner’s options become more complicated. Crane manufacturers have boom repair policies in place governing the dos and don’ts. This primarily relates to lacing repair and re-placement, as most manufacturers will not approve repairs to chords. When chords are damaged, the manufacturer is likely to tell the crane owner that replacement of the dam-aged boom section is the only option.
Kobelco’s policy is typical. “We develop a lattice boom repair policy for each crane when it is designed. Each model and boom section has a detailed procedure for re-pair as well as a detailed description of what is in or not in the allowable toler-ance, such as details of size and depth of a ding that requires repair/replacement,” explains Jack Fendrick, general manager for Kobelco Cranes North America Inc., Houston, Texas. He continues: “We request the welder doing the repair be American Welding Society (AWS) 6GR certified. The welder and the customer take full liability for any repair. We dictate the number of lattices allowed to be repaired/replaced per boom section over the life of the section. We also require that any repair on a Kobelco crane use genuine Kobelco parts. “Kobelco does not allow repair work to be done on any chords. If a chord has been damaged beyond acceptable tolerance, the boom section is not allowed to be repaired and should be replaced with a complete boom section.”
One company that differs on this point is Liebherr. Cranes produced by Liebherr Ehingen – that is LTM 1030 to LTM 11200 all-terrain cranes and LR 1350 to LR 11350 crawler cranes – can have structural re-pairs made by the company’s repair team in Houston or by authorized third parties. This includes chord repair, depending on the damage. “Liebherr Ehingen takes a global ap-proach to servicing our customers,” says Ralf Vieten, executive vice president of service for Liebherr Cranes Inc., Newport News, Va. “We believe we must provide value to the customer. Boom replace-ment is expensive and time consuming.” Through a contract with WHECO Corp., a crane repair and restoration services com-pany based in Richland, Wash., Liebherr Ehingen authorizes structural repairs to its cranes in North America. “We have a simi-lar arrangement with others around the world. We see value in being able to pro-vide structural repairs where the customer is instead of shipping everything back to Germany,” says Vieten.

Editor’s Note: It seems boom repair is a topic that everyone wants to talk around but not about. This article was supposed to be a crane owner’s guide to successful lattice boom repair. Instead, it is more of a crane owner’s guide to risk assessment. Lat-tice booms were picked specifically in order to keep the discussion more focused, but many of the issues also pertain to telescopic booms and other structural repairs.

Sharing the responsibility
When a crane accident occurs there are lots of parties that get pulled into the result-ing lawsuits, not the least of which is the crane manufacturer. So it’s understandable why manufacturers have strict boom repair policies. Likewise, many crane owners are cautious for the same reasons. “Due to the nature of cranes – a repair performed incorrectly puts people’s lives at risk. This is a very serious matter and end users should take it into consideration before making a hasty decision to get the crane back up and running. An improper weld or using faulty material can cause catastrophic dam-age and is not worth any risk,” says Fendrick. Scott Moreland, vice president of sales for Liebherr Nenzing Crane Co., Houston, Texas, elaborates this point with an exam-ple: A luffing jib collapsed on an LR model during a wind storm. After simulating the accident through finite element analysis, the manufacturer found a hot spot on a flat plate at the boom butt. “Even though you could not see damage, that spot saw an impact, and its integrity could have been af-fected. Once steel has yielded, you can’t un-yield it.” Moreland says a third-party repair facility might not catch that type of damage. Liebherr Nenzing Crane currently does not authorize boom or structural repairs to its cranes by outside companies. “Ultimately any repair made by someone other than the manufacturer will become the crane owner’s responsibility, and it in-creases their liability,” says Moreland. “If the repair is made by a third-party repair shop,
they share in the responsibility and liability. The size and capability of the repair shop to defend its work will be important if some-thing ever happens to the crane that can be partly blamed on the repair.” “I don’t want to be the company that makes the news because of an accident,” says Corey Roberts, operations manager for Zeiger Crane Rental Inc., West Palm Beach, Fla. “That’s why when we have damaged lacings, we order replacement lacings from the manufacturer, then we have the dealer
or a certified welding company perform the work. We don’t do it ourselves. If a chord is damaged we buy a replacement section from the manufacturer.” A crane manager at another crane rental company, who requested anonymity, says his company will send boom sections with damaged chords to a third-party boom repair facility. “But if they determine the boom can’t be repaired, we scrap it,” he says. A good boom repair company will also bear some of the responsibility, offering work that
Editor’s Note: In reality many crane own-ers choose to have booms repaired, even ones with damaged chords. While some may do the work themselves, many will hire a boom repair or welding shop to do it for them. Yet many crane owners were hesitant to discuss repairs other than those autho-rized by the manufacturer. The reason they don’t want to talk about it is because they don’t want the manufacturer to flag their file on that particular crane. It’s all about liability. It’s not surprising then that boom repair companies keep their customer lists confidential. One representative said his company’s client list reads just like the manufacturers’ lists and includes large fleet owners, major rental companies and even crane dealers.

is warranted and insured. There are hundreds of boom repair and welding shops operating across North America, but they are not all created equal. Make sure you know who you are dealing with. “Structural repair services are very specialized and often challenging,” says Jay Shiffler, vice president and director of business development for Wheco. “It is for this reason that some OEMs may only be able to provide limited structural or re-placement alternatives to damaged struc-tural components. Too often this leaves the customer with few alternatives and often drives them to use discreet, non-reputable sources for repairing their equipment.” How a crane owner proceeds is ultimately impacted by cost, how long either replace-ment or repair will take, whether they think repairs can be made according to an accept-able standard, and the chance of future liabil-ity due to a faulty repair. The market also has a bearing on these factors. “Manufacturers don’t generally have a surplus of boom on hand,” says Roberts. “With the market the way it is right now, you might have to wait four to six weeks to get a new boom section.”
According to Shiffler, boom repairs can be done that are compliant to all known OSHA, Cal-OSHA, ANSI and AWS stan-dards. “Like repairs to other consumer, commercial and industrial equipment, compliance with federal, state and local laws and regulatory standards must be met and maintained but are not proprietary to the OEM or their distributors and agents,” explains Shiffler. “This position is supported by a U.S. Department of Labor standard in-terpretation letter (01/18/1995 - PPM crane repairs) that addresses repairs and com-pliance with federal standards. Regarding repairs, OSHA only requires the approval of the manufacturer where ‘modifications or additions which affect the capacity or safe operations of the equipment shall be made….’ The standards interpretation letter is careful to distinguish between repairs and modifications and additions.” But as the crane owner, if you don’t follow the regulations to the letter, you could be the one left responsible should a future failure occur, says Greg Augustine, Manitowoc Crane Care manager of technical support for crawler cranes, Manitowoc, Wis.
A second OSHA interpretation letter on the subject exists. The letter, dated Dec. 8, 2003, addresses the issue of modifications or additions to a crane without manufactur-er approval where the manufacturer is still in existence. As it relates to a manufacturer denying approval of changes, it states: “In the case of both modifications and opera-tional specifications, where the manufac-turer is in existence, reviews the technical merits of the application for approval and denies the application, the employer must abide by that decision – the standard does not permit the employer to override the de-nial by obtaining approval from a qualified engineer.” The letter also notes that this issue is being discussed as part of the wording of the new cranes and derricks portion of Subpart N, currently under revision. To find either letter in its entirety go to www.osha.gov and conduct an advanced search in Interpretations for “1995 - 01/18/1995 - PPM crane repairs” and “2003 – 12/08/2003 – Modifications or additions to a crane without a manufacturer approval where the manufacturer is still in existence.”

Editor’s Note: It’s crucial that whoever works on your boom, whether it’s your own welders or an outside company, knows what they are doing. Certain processes need to be followed, especially if the work is outside the scope of the manufacturer’s policies.
Proper training
Crane Care’s Augustine says Manitowoc will consider repairs to boom chords. After review, if the manufacturer’s engineering department determines the repair can be done, they may turn it over to their EnCore rebuild center. In North America, there is an EnCore facility in Arkansas. Elsewhere in the world there are facilities in Germany and China. Through Crane Care, Manitowoc also of-fers a boom inspection and repair training program covering standard policy repairs. The course, available only to qualified welders, explains what repairs are allowed, how to do inspections and how to perform repairs properly. Last summer All Erection & Crane Rental Corp. sent 10 of its welders through the course. Crane Care shipped all of the metal stock to the All Erection
training facility in Cleveland, Ohio, where All constructed a mini-welding lab. The rigorous course consisted of both classroom and hands-on welding training. Manitowoc instructors examined test pieces for defects and quality and also sent sample weldments from each student back to the Manitowoc facility for final destructive test-ing. After passing all elements of the course and a final written test, the 10 technicians received certification from Manitowoc. Liebherr Ehingen’s training regimen for Wheco and all other third-party provid-ers is similar. “Wheco welders are certified by us to Liebherr Ehingen processes,” says Vieten. “Training is conducted in Germany and all welders must be re-certified by the company every two years. In addition to the re-certification, welders from around the world send work every six months to Germany for testing and analysis. We keep a very close eye on the process,” he says. Once a boom repair facility, such as Wheco, is authorized by Liebherr Ehingen, each boom brought in is handled individu-ally. “All instructions come from the fac-tory and repairs must be done with our
instructions and certain materials,” says Vieten. But there are limitations. Some-times repair is not possible and the boom section will need to be replaced. Shiffler explains that with Liebherr products, Wheco works directly with the manufacturer to determine proper ma-terials and processes. “But if it’s another manufacturer’s product, Wheco does metallurgical tests to determine proper materials. Then we use an engineer to design each individual repair and weld-ing specifications. The repaired piece is non-destructive tested and certified. Every repair Wheco makes is documented and insured.” Wheco has performed repairs on lattice boom cranes, booms and jibs up to 600 metric tons. As a crane owner, when your equipment needs structural repairs, you want quality work done by qualified people. If you choose not to deal directly with the manufacturer or your dealer, look for a company that’s familiar with the industry standards, whose work is documented and independently inspected and certified, and that offers war-ranty and insurance on repairs. z

in the last six months, Germany, Italy and Japan have all in-troduced mini cranes to the North American market. They sport many of the same features as larger, conventional cranes, but when the job is in a confined setting, allows for
minimal access, or requires the operator to get as close to the job as possible, mini cranes make an exceptional alternative. Small in stature, they’re easy to transport to the jobsite. Small in size, they can put the operator next to the object he’s picking, even as he runs the machine remotely. And small in footprint, they can lift objects in a confined space offering limited access – even underground in some cases. Here are four new models that have entered the North American market since last summer.
Boecker Aluminum Trailer Crane Last fall, German manufacturer Boecker established a service and distribution center in Dallas, Texas, for its lightweight alumi-num trailer cranes and construction lifts. The company has one crane model certified for the U.S. market and sold two units prior to ICUEE. At press time, the company had an order for three units.
An alternative to truck-mounted cranes, the trailer crane is a ver-satile machine that is lightweight and can fit in tight spaces. Gaining interest among rental houses, it is designed for multiple applications from light commercial to resi-dential construction. Able to reach over the top of a house or building and place loads on top or behind the structure, it is also ideal for applications where the crane is lifted onto the top of a building structure, for example to install HVAC units or other roof-based structures. Interest has also come from clients who erect cellphone towers and from log home builders, says Volker Ho-hmann, CEO and president. Residential builders who are in need of lightweight equip-ment to get into a construc-tion site will choose this type of a crane, as well as contractors performing renovation jobs where space is an issue. The Model AHK 30/1400 PLC on the stand features a 3,000-pound lift capacity and 95-foot lift height. At 7,000 pounds, this crane can easily be pulled behind most full-size SUVs or other pick-up trucks. “One of its most interesting features is it is tow-able,” says Hohmann. “You detach the unit from the tow vehicle, maneuver it through the construction site and set it up, typically, in 10 minutes, and you can start working wherever you are.” Powered by a commercial grade Honda V-Twin gas engine, the crane is operated by a radio remote control unit.

Jekko Mini Cranes C4 Cranes, Minneapolis, Minn., partnered with IMAI Manufac-turing, Colle Umberto, Italy, to bring the Jekko mini crane to the U.S. market late last year. With two models already in C4 Cranes’ lineup, the distributor is in the process of adding a third model, which was approved last fall. The mini cranes, designed for the industrial crane market, can fit through standard 36-inch doorways. Using the cranes, opera-tors can place 1,200 pounds up 42 feet with optional offsetting jib. The mini cranes run on batteries and create no emissions, making them an option for indoor use and confined spaces. “Wall panel installers are using quite a few of them,” says Keith Shank, C4 Cranes president. Shank reports that mechanical contrac-tors installing industrial pipe, and steel erectors placing structural steel inside buildings have also shown interest.

T he destruction of the Twin Towers of the New York World Trade Center is a well-documented horror. The response of the emergency services and subsequently the crane and rigging industry in the aftermath was inspirational and
heroic. Since that time, the planned reconstruction has seemed at times like a soap opera. After drawn-out debate over design and ownership of the project, followed by stage-managed false starts, construction at last seems to be properly underway. The Freedom Tower, designed by Skidmore, Owings & Mer-rill (SOM), is the focus of the site redevelopment. The building will reach a symbolic height of 1,776 feet, including a spire and antenna. The main structure will ascend to 1,362 feet, the height of the original World Trade Center South Tower, with an outdoor observation deck at the height of the original North Tower. It is the largest of four new skyscrapers planned for the site.
Construction of the massive foundations and underground utilities began in April 2006, but only now is steelwork ready to begin its rise above ground level, scheduled for June 2008. Delays have been associated more with the political sensitivity of the project than weather, equipment and other typical problems. Going forward construction should maintain a steady pace, with much of the work to be done by a pair of the fastest tower cranes in the world. Two Favelle Favco M760D cranes have been on site since December 2006 and were specified by construction manager Tishman Construction Corporation for their speed of operation. The lowest of three bids for the steel erection contract went to DCM Erectors, part of the Davis Group. Its contract is for three phases: below grade steel, above grade steel, and the antenna. Below grade, DCM is working with Banker Steel, Lynchburg, Va., as the fabricator, while DCM will conduct the complete procurement,

We were ready to hit the ground running as soon as the ob-stacles to construction were removed.” Finally in December 2006, DCM erected the cranes on site and re-rented them to the groundworks contractor. Lomma says that the Fav-cos are “the crane of choice for the steel erector” because they are the only currently-manufactured tower cranes powered by diesel engines rather than electric power. “Favco is today the only high-speed crane out there,” he says. “I can pick up 30 or 40 tons on single line pull at 500 feet a minute. An electric crane would need three or four parts of line and so would be three or four times slower.” That is even if electricity could be transmitted to the heights required without losing power. Lomma says that electric power is unavailable in the city and generators are a costly option.
The diesel hydraulic Favelle Favco M760D has a maximum rated capacity of 70 tons and when rigged with a short boom of 100 feet can lift 70,000 pounds on a
single part of line. When reeved with three parts of line, the lift capacity increases to 211,000 pounds. “Nobody else can do that, that I know of,” says Lomma. Depending on the requirements for this job, these cranes are rigged with either one part line or two parts of line. In addition, as work progresses the boom configura-tion will change to provide greater capacity as needed. There are drawbacks associated with diesel tower cranes. They are considered less clean than electric cranes and there are hazards associated with refuelling at height. But Lomma sees the virtues of both types of tower cranes. He owns several electric tower cranes as well, including two new MR 415-H24 Potains. This model has a maximum rated capacity of 35 tons. With a 15,000-pound

Region Report
Both the manufacturer and the owner of the tower cranes on New York
City’s Freedom Tower claim strong con-nections to the project. Favelle Favco supplied the cranes that built the original Twin Towers, while Jimmy Lomma was instrumental in the emergency response following their destruction. Favelle Favco was an Australian com-pany that had been producing tower cranes for just six years when it broke into the U.S. market in 1968 by selling
eight STD 2700 cranes to Karl Koch Erection Co. for the construction of the New York World Trade Center. Since then, Favelle Favco has become firmly established as the brand of choice for skyscraper builders the world over be-cause of the power and line speeds that the cranes can achieve. Nine of the world’s 10 tallest buildings were built with Favco tower cranes. The company was taken over by Muhibbah Engineering of Malaysia in 1995 and listed as a separate company on the Kuala Lumpur stock exchange in 2006. Jimmy Lomma’s links with the project were cemented on the day that the Twin Towers fell in 2001 following terrorist at-tacks on them and the Pentagon. Nearly 3,000 people died as a result, with 2,603 of them killed in the collapse of the 100-story Twin Towers. Responding to a call for help from city authorities, Jimmy Lomma, president of JF Lomma Inc. and New York Crane & Equipment Corp. arrived at what soon became known as Ground Zero at 9 p.m. that day. He brought with him a 450-ton Krupp all-terrain crane and a 200-ton Demag to help in the search and rescue. In the days that followed he brought in more equipment, including a camper van that became his new home. Even though his real home was just 10 minutes away on the other side of the Holland Tunnel, it would be weeks before he would get to see it again.
At the outset it was chaos, but once a semblance of order was established, the site was divided into four quadrants. Lomma had charge of the cranes in two of them, and was regarded as the overall coordina-tor for the lifting equipment. He was the key adviser to the fire department. Bill Pace of AmQuip Corp., Bensalem, Pa., led the riggers in another quadrant and Ray Bernardo of Bay Crane Service Inc., Long Island, had the fourth. These men and their crews worked around the clock. For the first two weeks it was a search-and-rescue job, carefully lifting away debris of the fallen towers to al-low paramedics to access any survivors trapped below, which turned out to be only a handful. It was a mind-numbingly difficult task, not just emotionally, but also technically and logistically, but the crane and rigging industry responded brilliantly. Jimmy Lomma’s leadership and commit-ment were later recognized by his peers through a special award from the Special-ized Carriers & Rigging Association.

concrete bucket on its hook and one part of line, the MR 415-H24 can achieve a line speed of 331 feet per minute. With just a 5,000-pound load, line speed is 843 feet per minute. Electric cranes are getting bigger and faster, but they have yet to catch Favelle Favco’s power for skyscraper construction. To satisfy environmental concerns and meet the green agenda of New York City authorities, the two M760Ds working on the Freedom Tower have been specially equipped with Tier 3 engines. Lomma says that they are the first diesel tower cranes to meet the Tier 3 engine emission regulations.
Building the cranes Although New York Crane & Equipment Corp. has supplied the cranes and jibs, DCM is using its own mast sections taken from
old Link-Belt TG 1900 tower cranes, a type of diesel-powered tower crane that has not been produced for many years. Other tower crane manufacturers have issued warnings about mixing and matching crane uppers with mast sections of dif-ferent makes. They stress that uppers should only be used with masts that have been specifically designed to hold them. However, Favelle Favco has sanctioned the use of TG mast sections, either on their own or mixed with Favco mast sections. Michael Khoo, general manager of Favelle Favco Cranes USA Inc., Harlingen, Texas, says: “It is not unusual to mix the TG mast sections with the Favco mast sections, especially in the New York area as there are a lot of TG mast sections around. We have a transition piece that allows the two different mast sections to

< Continued from page 28work together. Obviously, the structural analysis is carried out by an independent structural engineer and all reaction loads certified before the system is allowed to be used.” The Freedom Tower cranes will have about 130 feet of mast and will climb up the structure of the building as the steel-work rises, using a “basket” climbing system developed and patented by DCM for the TG 1900. DCM says that its internal climbing system reduces jumping time and allows work to continue beneath the crane. Lomma has entered into a marketing agreement with DCM, through which DCM will provide Lomma with climbers for all future projects. Each tower sits on a square steel basket. Once the steelwork reaches two stories, a second basket is fitted around the crane and anchored to the building. The crane itself is not tied to the build-ing. A lifting frame is positioned above the upper basket. When the crane needs to rise in height, the upper basket is disconnected from the building by retracting hydraulic outriggers. The lifting frame raises the upper basket by two stories, where it is reconnected and the lower basket is then released. Repeating the action raises the lower basket and the base of the crane that it supports. According to DCM, it takes just 20 minutes to raise the crane two stories. A video showing how the system works
can be seen on DCM’s website at www.dcmerectors.com/tower-crane_video.htm.
“The DCM internal basket climber has been used with the Favco M760D on other projects and has proven to be
a workable system,” says Khoo. DCM has recently received a second patent for its climbing system (US Patent 7,290,672 B2), with patents pending and applied for in Canada and Europe, respectively. Steel erection is scheduled to run for 26 months from June. Some 50,000 tons of steel will be used in the building, includ-ing the substructure. The heaviest piece of steel to be erected should be approximately 168,000 pounds, which will require the cranes to be reconfigured in order to make the lift. Concrete pouring is expected to begin in mid-2009 and will be completed two or three months after the steelwork. That contract has been secured by Collavino Construction, Detroit, Mich. DCM will also use the two Favco tower cranes to make lifts for the concrete contractor. z

The company’s newest model, the 500, is 3'8" wide, has a 38-foot boom and an optional 12-foot hydraulic luffing jib. The crane allows
the operator to place 1,200 pounds some 50 feet in the air. Model 265 has an optional glass manipulator that can be installed on the boom, and Model 360 fea-tures an optional man bas-ket. All models are ASME B30.5 certified. Shank says mini cranes have been used in Asia for about 20 years and Eu-rope for at least 10 years, but C4 Cranes is the first distributor to bring them to the United States. Re-sponse has been good, and
end users are buying one or two of them at a time, he says. “Every person who rents or buys one of mine receives a four-hour training session, and that helps them understand not only how to use these machines, but everything they can do with them.”

Maeda Seisakusho Mini-Crawler Cranes Japanese manufacturer Maeda enters the North and South American markets at ConExpo later this month when it unveils a line of mini-crawler cranes designed to work in confined spaces, indoors and limited-access locations. The mini cranes are designed to eliminate manual handling of lighter loads in confined spaces. Three remote-controlled models, including diesel/electric options, comprise the MC series, according to Steve Inman of MaedaUSA. The compact 3.1-ton MC285C with a 28-foot boom and 30-inch travel width is designed for indoor use. The MC305C has a 3.3-ton capacity with a 41-foot boom, while the MC405C offers a boom
length of 54 feet, a capac-ity rating of 4.2 tons, and pick-and-carry capabil-ity. The LC785, a 5.4-ton capacity telescoping boom crawler, will also be exhibited. It has a 51-foot boom and near-zero tail swing. “Whatever bigger cranes can’t do, in places where the user needs lifting but doesn’t have space or need for a larger crane,” is where you’ll find these mini models, says Inman. He says that glass-han-
dling contractors, who have large, delicate pieces of glass that need to be set will like these cranes. “In high-rise construction, where they’re installing curtain walls, putting the sides on multi-story
buildings, these cranes free up much larger equipment,” he says. In an industrial setting, these mini-cranes can be used to move machinery, perform plant and factory maintenance, and provide another level of safety for the operator who can run the unit re-motely. “Following the lead in Europe, it’s going to be a very big rental tool, but a number of end users will have a fleet of their own, as well,” adds Inman. All Maeda mini-cranes are equipped with safety features in-cluding state-of-the-art Load Moment Limiter systems, Anti-Two Block, and multiple warning and shutdown systems. All have undergone ASME B30.5 review, and are being manufac-tured with EPA-compliant engines.

Spydercranes Introduced to the North American market in 2007, Spyder-cranes, supplied by Smiley Lifting Solutions, Phoenix, Ariz., are a mini-crawler crane manufactured by Furukawa Unic of Japan. Their small size and maneuverability allow access to the interior of buildings or parking garages for construction or installation of mechanical equipment, says Tony Smiley, owner. “Ideally, we see this crane as a rental product, but we envision it taking off in all industries,” he says. “Multiple units are being sold now to end users for a wide variety of applications, including steel erectors, water well industries, glazing companies, and light com-mercial contractors.” Designed to work in tight, confined spaces, the mini-crawlers can go through a standard door, Smiley adds. “You can take it into a build-ing, stick it in an elevator, and take it up to the second floor,” he says. The crane is currently available from Smiley in the W 295 series, which is 24 inches wide, and has a hook height of 29 feet above ground and 39 feet below. Hexagonal booms, designed with a variable piston pump for faster extension and opera-tions, range in lengths from a minimum of 8.3 feet to a maximum of 28.4 feet. At the worksite, the mini-crawlers travel at a running speed of 1.4 mph on a two-speed motor. Outriggers extend and retract easi-ly, and are control from the operator’s station, as are all other crane operations, including the crane’s automatic, one-lever hook-stow system and anti-two block system. The crane, which also operates remotely and features 360-degree continuous rotation, is designed as an alternative to larger pieces of equipment. “For instance, today, we got a call from a rental com-pany whose regular truck crane couldn’t get in to lift an A/C unit. The spider crane will go right in there” to do the job, says Smiley. z

116 CRANE HOT LINE MARCH 2008 • cranehotline.com
In need of a simulator to provide high-level crane operator train-ing two years ago, the Operating Engineers Training Institute of Ontario (OETIO), Canada, turned to CMLabs Simulations Inc., a provider of physics simulation software and services. The Mon-
treal, Quebec, company responded with mobile and tower crane train-ing simulators. Because of the success of those products, OETIO asked CMLabs to develop a lattice-boom crane operator training simulator. CMLabs has developed a technology platform, called Vortex, which permits realistic, real-time, interactive 3D representation of vehicles in their environment. The company incorporates this into state-of-the-art heavy equipment simulators, designed to create simulated environ-ments with a high degree of realism in order to expose operators to rare and unsafe situations and to train for emergency procedures. Using a simulator to train for operations involving pile driving and drag-lining in an urban environment has clear advantages in terms of time, cost and throughput. “It was very cost-effective to use a simula-tion solution,” says Chris Funk, sales and marketing coordinator for CMLabs. OETIO Director Gerry Hughes agrees: “The opportunity to train in an effective simulation significantly increases the hours of hands-on experience our students acquire in a safe, controlled, realis-tic, and responsive environment.” With the Vortex simulator, new operators can be assessed and ini-tially trained before moving on to real equipment. Experienced op-erators, already familiar with machine operating procedures, can run them more efficiently and effectively. Both new and experienced op-erators can benefit from dangerous-situation training while not risking real crane assets, according to CMLabs product literature.
From snapshot to big picture Vortex simulators are designed in both desktop and “immersive vir-tual environment cabs,” explains Funk. The systems are modeled after the real crane controls of a Liebherr 63 LC top-slewing tower crane, a
Grove RT530E mobile crane, or the new lattice-boom crane simulator based on a Manitowoc 8500 including pile driver, clam shell and drag line configurations. Realism is achieved through four main elements: high-fidelity physics simulation, realistic 3D graphics rendering, ambi-ent sound simulation, and typical controls and input devices. The simulators are comprised of four large displays. A head-motion tracking system controls the perspective seen on all four displays, al-lowing the user to look around objects for better depth perception. This includes distant objects. Accurate generation of shadows is also included, for improved depth perception and realism. Joysticks, pedals and indicators intensify the user interaction, while a simulated LMI display of the load and other data round out the training experience.
What else can it do? CMLabs has developed exercises for the simulators that incorpo-rate repeatable student measurement and assessment capabilities. With them, operator performance can be objectively compared over time and assessed against operational needs and certification requirements. As new standards and certifications emerge, the sys-tems can be used to ensure students and operators are trained to the latest requirements. Operator skill sets are maintained to standards throughout the range of construction cycles with a balance between simulator time and real equipment operation time. “Because not all organizations are at the same level of readiness or have the same needs, [the] simu-lators offer a modular and reconfigurable solution that supports training on multiple crane types,” says Funk. In fact, scalable options are available. With the immersive virtual reality simulator, operator trainees “ex-perience virtually everything one will face on the actual job,” says Funk, “whether it is as an apprentice learning the trade or as a seasoned op-erator upgrading skills sets. It is configured with four large screens, an instructor’s station, multiple person views, exercises, scenarios and environments.” CMLabs has also developed train-the-trainer courses, as well as an annual upgrade support program. Smaller scale desktop versions of the simulators, targeting operator and situation controls, are also available. With the desktop versions, trainees experience real-life situations while training on specific parts of crane operation. “Scalable solutions can be configured with a simple desktop PC or, for instance, with one large plasma monitor, plus in-structor station, exercises, scenarios and environments,” says Funk. CMLabs is capable of working with clients to create the simulation ap-plication best suited to customer needs and goals. The arrival of the lattice-boom simulator, which was announced last fall, is set for next month. The earlier simulator products for the mo-bile and tower cranes have been well-received by the industry, reports Funk. “We have received very positive response from business leaders, instructors and trainees,” he says. The company is currently developing a concrete pump simulator for release later this year. z

CICB to Debut Online Testing Crane Inspection & Certification Bureau, Orlando, Fla., will introduce an internet-based employee assessment service at Con-Expo. The online assessment for employees and potential employees involved in crane and rigging operations uses internet-based multiple choice quizzes to provide employers with information needed to evaluate potential or existing employees’ knowledge. Questions are divided into 17 categories covering topics such as load charts, commu-nications, and planning. An administration tool shows individual scores and the length of time it took the person to complete. With results broken down by category, strong and weak knowledge areas can be revealed. To see a demo, go to http://demotest.cicb.com or visit ConExpo booth N2102.
Construction Challenge Finals Regional rally winners have been selected in the first-ever Construction Challenge competition, initiated by the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM). At least 51 teams will compete in finals this month at ConExpo. The purpose of the challenge is to expose students to new skills and fu-ture industry jobs.
Five regional rallies were held on Jan. 12. More than 150 teams comprised of more than 700 high school
Fort Lonesome, FLA., deCember 2007 – A truck driver was killed in a traffic accident after a crane hit the front of the tractor-trailer he was driving. The crane was crossing a two-lane county road and pulled into the path of the semi. The crane operator was treated for his injuries at the hospital. – Tampa Tribune
new york, n.y., deCember 2007 – A crane dropped 7 tons of steel onto a construction trailer at a high-rise construction site. An ar-chitect working inside was injured. The nylon sling carrying the steel snapped, according to the city’s buildings commissioner. The sling was carrying a 14,000-pound load and was de-signed to handle 19,000 pounds, according to the city Buildings Department. A stop- work order for crane operations was issued. – The Journal News
bLytHe, CALIF., deCember 2007 – A boom truck fell on a man installing an HVAC unit on the roof of a house, trapping him underneath. The crane may have tipped under the weight of the load. Although OSHA is still investigating, reports said it appeared the outriggers were not properly extended. – Palo Verde Valley Times z

students participated. They came from 18 states to compete in Georgia, New Jersey, Ohio, Texas, and Wisconsin. Teams compet-ed in three events, including a debate about infrastructure issues, construction of a small-scale structure, and development of industry communications programs. Maximum Capacity Media, publisher of Crane Hot Line, will host a 5K Run/Walk at ConExpo to benefit the AEM Construc-tion Challenge. For more information, visit www.constructchallengerun.com. Crosby Employees Receive Training in Oil and Gas Applications Nearly 30 sales managers, engineers, train-ers, technical support staff, and top manage-ment from The Crosby Group, Inc., Tulsa, Okla., attended a week-long oil and gas indus-try training program at High Plains Technol-ogy Center, Woodward, Okla. A first for the company, Crosby employees participated in order to increase their understanding of oil field applications. “Crosby has always strived to have knowl-edgeable sales and technical support, with expertise in numerous industries,” said Danny Bishop, manager of training services for The Crosby Group. “But, what makes this training unique is the specialization provided by High
Plains Technology Center trainers, which in-cluded hands-on training, field trips to drill-ing and well-servicing rigs, and one week of concentrated training.” Crosby supplemented the training with an overview of all of its products used in oil and gas applications and a hands-on session at the Crosby McKissick manufacturing facility. z
Warning Signs In every business there are tell-tale signs that the operation might be poorly managed, such as dirty tables in a restaurant. To be an effective crane operations manager, look for these warning signs before a crane leaves for the jobsite.1) Nicks, chips and broken flanges on sheaves could mean the operator is side-pulling loads.2) Damaged or frayed wire rope is a danger-ous condition and must be replaced.3) Poor housekeeping in the cab could hinder safe operations. Also make sure cell phones or radios, other than those used for jobsite communication, are left at home.4) It’s never a good sign if safety devices, such as load indication systems, have been bypassed.5) Low tire pressure invalidates capacity for on-rubber lifts. Verify the proper tire pres-sure against the load chart.6) Rigging gear that shows signs of damage, such as a large throat opening on a hook or broken spring on a safety latch, could mean daily pre-operational inspection isn’t hap-pening. Replace damaged rigging gear im-mediately.7) Liberal use of duct tape on any part of a crane is always a bad sign. z
