  • To The Top Crane | Overview of the load chart and range diagram for the Tadano 180g-5. In this video I discus how I go about deciding which boom modes to use and where I place the crane for the range diagram.

    Thanks for going into detail on what you have to do to configure the crane when you roll up on a job. There is definitely more to it than what most people think. Thanks for sharing and congrats on 2000 subscribers!

    Thank you for the refresher. This is the bread and butter for crane operators... those who refer to charts and manuals before using the crane are doing their job. Otherwise, you can see the rest of those who don’t follow the charts on TH-cam crane fails!

    I noticed on the last video - A short stroll down memory lane- that one showed a great view of the boom deflection (around the 10:37 mark). I was going to ask if this was calculated into your lift but you just answered it. You would make a great instructor.

    Great video. I went through our basic crane and advanced crane classes at our training site. Each class was 80 hours so combined it was 160 hours. I think we had a whopping 10 hours of seat time, the other 150 hours was spent on load charts, rigging, figuring out weights of material etc etc etc If you suck or hate math, find a different career.

    Do you have to calculate boom deflection when you're setting up a lift, and how do you factor that in?

    • @ToTheTopCrane
      @ToTheTopCrane  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sandy, on some jobs, it is definitely a factor. For instance, the 310 foot tower. I had very little margin for error on the radius from the center of the tower. If I was too close, I wouldn't be able to boom up far enough to set the piece. If I was too far away, I wouldn't have enough tip height (head room) to set the piece. On the actual chart, the boom angle is the loaded boom angle, for the defined radius, with the capacity shown. The range diagram however, doesn't show deflection. So, it is primarily a guide to get us in the ballpark or show what we can reach over the top of. Hope that all makes sense. Thanks for watching! 🙂👍

    Very informative I was able to read the chart and see what you were talking about. Can you control each boom section? Please reply But if I don't get your message my TH-cam is messed up and I'm not getting replys.

    • @ToTheTopCrane
      @ToTheTopCrane  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Brian Gardiner, yes and no. There is only one telescope cylinder inside the boom. So, the yes part...in maintenance mode, I can lock the cylinder into any one of the five sections and extend or retract it, as long as the boom is in a configuration that allows it. In normal operation, the sections are controlled by the computer, based on what mode I choose. Which is based on what I am lifting, crane configuration, and where I have to go with the item being lifted. Hopefully all of that makes sense. Thanks for watching! 🙂👍

    I've noticed that the maximum lifting capacity of cranes is with a radius that falls within the circle of the outriggers. Is there a possible practical application of this or is it only a reference? Or am I way off in the weeds? I guess the question is whether you can actually lift the maximum capacity of a given crane?

    • @ToTheTopCrane
      @ToTheTopCrane  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      dmacdonell, it would be really difficult to find an application. What I find intriguing is there is no industry standard. Some manufacturers use an 8 foot radius for max capacity, others use a 10 foot radius, etc.. So, when searching for a crane, it's important to look at the entire load chart and compare at various radi. Thanks for watching! 🙂👍
