Lift Planning - Best Practices



Important information needed to plan your lift:

1) Weight of item + rigging		Accurate Weight of the heaviest and/or deepest object(s) including all rigging and packaging.
2) Distance Up (height)		Height of Structure from ground to the highest point the crane/load must clear.
3) Distance Away		Distance from crane centerpin to the wall/boom intersect of the structure. The wall intersect is where the wall intersects a straight line drawn from the crane centerpin to the center of the load. It includes any offsets and/or adjustments
4) Distance In		Distance from the wall intersect to the center of gravity of the object being placed on the structure

The Overall Crane Radius is the distance from centerpin of the crane to the center of gravity of the object(s) being lifted (distance away + distance in)
