Frequently Asked Questions
The main factors in determining the size of crane required are the weight of the load and the distance (or ‘radius’) from the crane it is being lifted or placed. There may be other considerations such as load characteristics or restricted access, which influence the type and size of crane.
Mobile cranes can be classified in three basic types, All Terrain, Truck Mounted or Specialist. The lifting task, access to the site and load to be lifted will determine the most appropriate crane.
