Introduction
This presentation was developed as a teaching aid with the support of the American
Institute of Steel Construction.
It is primarily intended to be used by Construction Management programs to
supplement classes in Construction Methods and Construction Equipment but also
provides examples applicable to Estimating, Soils, Statics and Structures.
The presentation materials would also be applicable in Architecture and Civil
Engineering programs.
You will need to enable Macros in PowerPoint to use these functions. Because
viruses are sometimes transmitted through Macros, the default security setting for
PowerPoint is usually High. This must be changed to Medium before opening the
presentation.
The security setting can be changed by first closing the presentation. In PowerPoint
select Tools|Macro|Security Select Medium. Reopen this presentation and select
Enable Macros when prompted by the Security Warning.

15
Crane Availability
As with most types of construction
equipment, the theoretically optimal crane
for the job based on capability may not be
readily available, or a more capable crane
that is owned by the steel erector may be
more economical
Availability will always be an important
factor in crane selection
16
Number of Lifts
Fixed costs for crane mobilization will be
more significant for smaller jobs requiring
fewer days on site
A crane that can perform all lifts from a
small number of positions (or a single
position) on the job site may be highly
desirable even if mobilization and
operating cost are higher

Safety
OSHA requirements for steel erection are
covered in Subpart R of Safety and Health
Regulations for Construction
Two sections are critical for planning crane
operations
1926.752 Site layout, site-specific erection
plans and construction sequence
OSHA Steel Erection eTool Site Preparation.htm
Accidents
Crane failures can be
classified as structural or
tipping
Tipping can be caused by
overload, inadequate
foundation, or wind loading
Structural failure may be due
to overload or lateral load
Operator error can cause
either failure mode
Operations near power lines
present additional safety
hazards

Rigging
Columns
Beams
Multiple Lift Rigging
Statics of rigging
58
Column Rigging
This column is rigged using a device
that allows the iron workers to release
the rigging from the ground by pulling on
the rope
59
Beam Rigging
Beams are usually
lifted using a choker
wrapped around the
beam at the center of
gravity
Beams may also be
hoisted with two
cables
60
Statics of Rigging
Lifting a beam or column using a single
cable is simply a problem of selecting a
cable that can support the weight and
attaching it at the center
Some situations will require the rigger to
calculate
Center of gravity

Summary
Proper crane selection and application is
essential for a safe and economically
competitive steel erection plan
The crane must be placed on stable
foundations and have adequate range and
lift capacity to make the required
placements
