Top Five Crane Maintenance Tips for the Winter — and All Year Long
By Megan Wild
CEG CORRESPONDENT
As construction professionals who use cranes, you know how vital they are to your business and other business for whom you do work. Cranes are used 365 days a year, often long days, for extensive heavy lifting and transportation of just about any machinery and materials you could need for a large-scale project. That’s why it’s important to keep your crane well-maintained and in a satisfactory state of repair in order to complete your work on time and within budget. The most expensive part of crane repair is not the cost of repairing your crane, but the loss of operating income for the period of time your crane is incapacitated. If your crane is out of service, you still pay for machine storage, labor, subcontractors, machinery rental and upkeep. Delayed project times even push back future project start dates. This is why it’s imperative to keep your crane’s downtime to a minimum by ensuring it is well-maintained. This is perhaps most crucial during winter, when cold weather puts an acute strain on machinery, causing potential serious difficulties for your crane. Here’s how these problems can be avoided. “The key to managing any piece of construction equipment, cranes specifically, is the discipline of periodic preventive maintenance,” said Jeff Tulish, Stephenson Equipment’s Philadelphia branch manager and service manager. “You should monthly, quarterly and annually perform inspections and routine servicing of the equipment. The results of improper routine maintenance are major failures and increased downtime, and this negatively affects the O&O costs associated with construction equipment. Even in the idle months, construction equipment should be exercised and inspected monthly to prevent future jobsite breakdowns.” Stephenson Equipment is headquartered in Harrisburg, Pa., and has other branches in Pennsylvania and New York State. Pay Close Attention to the Engine The crane’s engine is the heart of your machine. These precautions may seem subtle, but they are extremely effective in keeping your crane ticking over according to the folks at PalFleet Truck Equipment Company: ● Don’t shock your crane into alertness. Let your machine heat up before putting it to work by keeping the engine on until it finds its optimum temperature for a smooth run. For this reason, it also may be advisable to only work in sunlight during the cooler seasons. ● It may be the right time to invest in a better-quality fuel to keep your engine in its best condition. ● Inspect the fuel tank and keep it clean. Dirt and water often accumulates in fuel, which can result in a system failure. ● Keep an eye on the filtration system, too. Contaminated air could lead to engine malfunction.
What Is the Coolant Situation? Cooling systems not only protect your machine against freezing, but they also increase the temperature of boiling point, prevent corrosion and help keep shaft seals lubricated. Rapid coolant usage also could signal a leak or something wrong in the engine. So, if there’s no leak, does that mean you can just use the coolant indefinitely? According to David Turcotte the technical director at Valvoline, “If one uses a fully formulated coolant and a reasonable reinhibition strategy that includes proper top off, the coolant may never need to be changed.” Checking the Batteries Obviously, your crane relies upon the optimum functioning of its batteries. Occasionally, the battery electrolyte could dry up, so it’s important to perform regular checks when it’s cold out. What is often overlooked is the general cleanliness of a crane’s internal mechanisms, so ensure all batteries are cleaned from debris and dirt. Also, double check that terminal cables are connected securely to facilitate a consistent current supply. Tires, Pumps and Piston Just like with your motor vehicle, the tires on your crane should be checked at frequent intervals over winter. Prepare to replace tires where damage has occurred and properly inflate those that remain in good working order. Pumps and pistons should be scrutinized at least once every six weeks for leaks, and replaced accordingly to avoid the more serious complications that can result from such a fault. Lubricants Just like we need water, cranes need lubrication — which means greasing and oiling. Greasing your crane is one of the most important things you can do to ensure its longevity. When the crane is sitting idle and without a load on the boom, be especially vigilant about greasing each section of the crane. Look at slide pieces, topside wear pads, slideway linings, side bars, guide rollers and cross-heads. Crane parts require greasing every 125 operating hours, so make sure you stick to a schedule. But be careful, warned Dale Heiner, Stephenson Equipment vice president of service operations. “Too much [grease] can be bad and to be honest, wasteful,” he said. “We use an air-operated gun that sprays the grease on the boom sections. It is much faster and less wasteful. If you use too much grease, the extra just ends up on the ground or on the hood or windshield of the crane, and that’s just a waste of money.” Cranes are an integral part of the efficiency and effectiveness of your business, and, of course, your bottom line. Be good to your crane, especially over winter months, and by catching the smaller problems as soon as possible, you can carry out repairs before major downtime ensues.

The beams are some of the longest ever erected in the state of South Carolina. In order to place the beams, United Infrastructure of Great Falls, S.C., purchased a brand new 250-ton 298 Series 2 lattice crawler crane, as well as a 298 HSL.

United Infrastructure Debuts 298 Series 2 Crane in South Carolina
The contract for SC Route 9 Bridge over the Catawba River in Lancaster, S.C., requires the placement of 170 ft. bulb-tee beams weighing 200,000 lbs.
The contract for SC Route 9 Bridge over the Catawba River in Lancaster, S.C., requires the placement of 170 ft. bulb-tee beams weighing 200,000 lbs. The beams are some of the longest ever erected in the state of South Carolina. In order to place the beams, United Infrastructure of Great Falls, S.C., purchased a brand new 250-ton 298 Series 2 lattice crawler crane, as well as a 298 HSL. The new westbound bridge is constructed on an aggressive 13-month schedule in the same location as the previous westbound bridge; both directions of traffic are being carried on the adjacent eastbound bridge. Only half of the 500 ft. (152.4 m) wide river could be blocked off at one time during construction with barge platforms. The two Link-Belt’s efficient footprint allowed for greater river width, and also eased the logistics of barge placement. Each crane used identical rigging consisting of 40 ft. long, doubled over nylon Kevlar-reinforced slings rated at 200,000 lbs. each. With 100 ft. of boom in one crane and 120 ft. on the other, there was plenty of headroom to pick the beams off the existing bridge and place them on
the new pier caps, or swing them 180 degrees directly behind the crane to the storage barge for later placement. The tandem lifts required operators Jeremy Talley and Brian Craig to synchronize their moves while lifting, swinging, booming and lowering. They encountered no problems operating the large capacity Link-Belt 298 rigs, having done similar lifts with United’s 218HSL lattice crawler cranes with smaller beams for the spans over the low-lying flood plains on each side of the river. As equipment manager, Keith Ernandez confirmed, “We have been working with our dealer, Pinnacle Cranes, for a very long time. It’s a relationship that makes us feel that we are being taken care of in all aspects with quick response times. They stand behind the equipment they represent. Right now and over the years Link-Belt has been a very good product, so there is no reason to change.” For more information, visit www.linkbelt.com.

Factors to Consider When Choosing the Right Crane for Your Project Virtually all construction projects require the lifting, hauling or transportation of heavy materials — which is why cranes play a gigantic role in the development of your project. Deciding which crane is right for your objectives can be an overwhelming task, as the range of options available is limitless. There is an enormous variety of cranes — each designed for a specific function or use. One example is tower cranes — these are fixed to the ground in large concrete footings or use weighted city bases when a concrete footer isn’t needed. Tower cranes are commonly used in the construction of tall buildings and are attached at various floors as the building rises. They are unique as they have the ability to climb the building as it rises. Tower cranes can add their own tower sections when equipped with a climber section. The climber allows the crane to jack the tower up enough to add one section of tower per move. The climber section also gives the crane the ability to lower itself back down the side of a building once the building is completed. Once it is at a lower elevation a mobile crane can disassemble the crane and load it out until its gone as if it was never there. Selecting the right crane for the job definitely requires preliminary preparation and planning but is an absolutely essential process, as it not only ensures your construction site is safe for workers and the public, but also can help you reduce costs and inefficiency, keeping your project on track, budget and schedule.
Three Factors You Should Consider When Choosing a Crane 1. The duration of the job and the size and weight of the material you will be lifting Cranes have different specifications, capacities and functionalities. Understanding what your project requires from a crane will help you select equipment that can best meet your project’s demands and will quickly narrow down your options. To fully understand the capabilities of the crane you are interested in renting or purchasing it’s always best to contact a crane specialist for assistance. Reps can help you size the crane that’s best suited for your application and will help you review various load charts to understand the crane’s capabilities, structural strengths and dimensions. Load charts will detail vital features of the crane such as boom length and the rated capacity — this is the gross weight that any crane can lift at a given radius (distance). When determining the right crane, the crane hook block and or ball as well as all rigging/cable must be deducted from this gross capacity to arrive at the safest crane for your particular project. The manufacturer’s charts will give you the exact specifications and dimensions of the machine. These graphs will allow you to calculate your maximum lift within any given radius. Getting this right will help you avoid selecting a crane with too little capacity, and will ensure it will fit into your job site with no obstructions. All of these factors insure that your job will be profitable and go as planned. 2. How will equipment be transported 18
The question of how the equipment will be transported could be initially overlooked, however, it is a critical consideration. Broadly speaking, cranes can be classified as either mobile, rough terrain/crawler or tower — all with different transportation methods. Permitting for city and state laws are all factors in the transportation of cranes and heavy equipment. The permit routing may take the crane in what would seem like an indirect route. This is done in order to avoid a low capacity or low clearance bridge or a roadway that is not sufficient for large loads or trailers to avoid accidents or other traffic issues such as road construction. 3. The conditions of the construction site The condition and terrain of the construction site also have a bearing on the type of crane you should be going after. Understanding weather conditions, spatial constraints and the ground conditions of your site will give you insight into which equipment will help you meet your objectives with efficiency. For example, rough terrain cranes are best suited to off-road construction sites as they are best equipped to deal with complicated ground conditions compared to all terrain cranes. The degree of mobility you require also will dictate the type of equipment needed. For instance, if your project requires flexibility and precise delivery in tight spaces, a mini-crane may be right for you.
Types of Cranes Tower cranes are typically used in the construction of tall buildings. As a fixed structure, its stability comes from being bolted to concrete slabs and provides a combination of both awe-provoking height and great lifting capacity, typically between 8 and 35 tons (7.2 and 31.7 t). Tower cranes are great for long term projects. Due to the sheer size and reach of tower cranes, extra precautions must be taken for safety and specially-skilled operators are required to man the machine. Adverse weather conditions also can hamper the schedule. Crawler cranes are mounted on moveable tracks. These tracks are specially designed to be used on multiple ground types including soft terrains. Due to the tracks and excellent counterweight control, crawler cranes are able to lift extremely heavy loads, typically from 80 to 825 tons (72.5 to 748 t). Additionally, they have the ability to safely transport materials around the construction site with ease. With such vast lifting capacities, they can often be bulky, difficult to transport to location and expensive to assemble and dismantle. Therefore, crawler cranes are best suited for long-term projects. HTC Truck type/All terrain Cranes are used for short term jobs where the lift requirements are too large for a boom truck yet are not long enough in duration or heavy enough to justify a crawler crane. You will see these cranes on a daily basis as they travel the roads and highways just as the daily commuter does on their daily activities. These cranes are best suited for commercial work and in industrial sites/hospitals/shopping mall HVAC repair or short term bridge construction. These machines average in size from 30-ton (27 t) capacity to more than

1,000 tons ((907 t). These cranes on average are the bread and butter of most crane companies’ business and how most are started initially. Boom Trucks are versatile and reliable, and are designed to provide important functions that, when combined, are extremely useful for most daily construction sites. Boom trucks are fitted with a hydraulic crane and a flat deck hauling area, which allows you to lift light to medium size equipment and material. They also have the ability to transport light miscellaneous equipment around a job site and to other locations as many trucks are able to travel at highway speeds. Carefully considering your options when renting or buying a crane
can help you avoid choosing equipment that is ill-suited for the job at hand. Incorrect selection can increase costs, affect your schedule and even jeopardize the safety of your staff and the public. In order to make an informed choice, it is always best to consult a crane rental company. Maxim Crane is a coast-to-coast provider of crane rental and lifting services. Situated in more than 54 locations, each branch is able to provide management services, including transportation, risk management, safety and insurance programs.

Terex CTL 430-24 Carries the Course Load During Library Reconstruction New construction projects always come with a set of challenges, but the site and lifting needs are usually straight forward enough that several different crane options fit the requirements. Building reconstruction, on the other hand, typically comes with its own unique challenges. Often, there are obstacles in the way that make selecting the right crane much more difficult, and bidding the right crane can be the difference between getting the job and moving on to the next opportunity. Major metropolitan downtown reconstruction projects offer even more challenges for the lifting contractor. It is a virtual certainty that the site will be surrounded by structures on all sides, making it a tight fit for mobile cranes. Busy streets make it nearly impossible and sometimes cost-prohibitive to block off a road for a significant period of time. This is precisely the type of demanding project facing contractor, Smith Bros. & Wilson (BC) Ltd. (SBW) of Vancouver, during the demolition and reconstruction of the 8th and 9th floors at the downtown Vancouver Public Library (VPL). The tasks included converting the once Provincial government office spaces into additional library space, meeting rooms and an urban green space, all while keeping the library open to thousands of visitors daily. Demolition and construction activities required many materials, large and small, to be moved. “All the demo material had to be removed,” said Tyler Brown, general superintendent of SBW, “and the library only had service elevators to get material from the top floors to street level. During the tender phase, we saw the need to hoist many items, including large-span escalators to get people up to the green space. It was quite a challenging prospect.”
Terex Tower Crane the Right Solution VPL is a very high profile project for the city, as the building’s distinct design makes the library a focal point of the downtown area. While the historical look allows it to stand out, it also poses unique challenges that require much preplanning in order to properly bid. “The library is designed after the Roman Colosseum and surrounded by an elliptical wall on the east side,” said Dean Arsene, crane rental and sales representative of Leavitt Machinery of Vancouver, an authorized Terex Cranes distributor. “We started discussing the project with SBW in late 2016, and all options were reviewed.” Like most contractors submitting bids, SBW initially considered mobile cranes to tackle the heavy lifting from street level. Unlike those companies, however, SBW saw several drawbacks that made planners rethink the option. “The structure’s shape required a minimum of a 600-ton capacity class mobile crane to hoist large materials to and from the upper floors because it would be boom bound,” said Brown. Given the possible set-up locations for a mobile crane at the site, smaller cranes just did not offer capacity to lift many of the objects at the required boom lengths and working radii. “This meant we would have had to shut down an entire street, and mobilization costs would have been high. By the time we counted every20
thing that needed to be hoisted, it was cost-prohibitive to use a mobile crane.” The next option for SBW was tower cranes, and they looked at flat top, hammerhead and luffing jib designs. “The job required a 180.4-foot boom radius, and the flat top and hammerhead cranes didn’t offer the capacity we needed for the escalators without breaking them down,” said Brown. Plus, there was a more pressing issue, as the crane would be placed about 50 ft. (15.2 m) from an adjacent structure. “Those booms were too long, and they didn’t have the freedom to slew without hitting a structure, so these designs were not an option,” said Arsene. For SBW, the only option to cost-efficiently support demolition and construction efforts on the VPL project was a luffing jib tower crane, and the Terex CTL 430-24 offered the reach and capacity for the job. “Through our discussions with Leavitt, we calculated the luffing jib as the most economical hoisting logistics solution for us,” said Brown. Steve Filipov, president of Terex Cranes, said the company offers a complete line of tower cranes as part of its lifting solutions because of challenging projects like this. “The VPL application is one of those unique cases where the mobile cranes we manufacture aren’t the most economical solution for our customers,” he said. “As the industry’s innovative lifting equipment solutions provider, we are committed to the tower cranes business, so we can partner with our customers for all their lifting needs.” CTL 430-24 Rising Bidding the job using the CTL 430-24 crane helped SBW receive the contract. For the year-long renovation project, SBW entered into a sixmonth rental agreement with Leavitt for the 26.5-ton (24 t) class Terex luffing jib tower crane. Its tower required seven HD23 22.6 segments to reach the needed jib base height of 147.6 ft. (45 m). To cover the entire site, the CTL 430-24 was equipped with a 180.4ft. (55 m) jib. A 15-degree in-service radius was used throughout the project to lift materials to and from the rooftop. “Using the luffing jib allowed us to position the tower closer to the library structure, but, even still, most of our lifts were made close to tip radius of the 180.4-foot jib,” said Brown. Arsene added, “When the crane was not in service, the jib was set to a 65-degree radius to allow it to slew without hitting any of the adjacent structures.” Meticulous planning led to flawless execution of crane installation the weekend of June 10 for Leavitt and SBW. The city allowed the adjacent Homer Street to be closed to facilitate installation. “Using a 350-ton capacity mobile crane, we installed the tower, counter jib and apex on day one,” said Arsene. “On day two, we installed the jib and counterweight. It was a very smooth set-up, and we were done in about 1.5 days.” Throughout the demolition phase, the crane was kept busy daily removing large structural pieces and concrete from the rooftop.

During the demolition and reconstruction of the 8th and 9th floors at the downtown Vancouver Public Library (VPL), Smith Bros. & Wilson (BC) Ltd. (SBW) of Vancouver was tasked with converting the once Provincial government office spaces into additional library space, meeting rooms and an urban green space, all while keeping the library open to thousands of visitors daily.
Choosing the tower crane for this project gave work crews more flexibility with material removal. As work transitions to the reconstruction phase, the crane will be used to hoist large building materials and full concrete buckets from street level to the 8th and 9th floors. The largest and heaviest planned lifts will be the two, 12,000-lb. escalators, hoisted into position without disassembly to save time and money. “The plan calls for the escalators to be placed toward the end of the 180.4-foot jib, and the crane’s load chart offers plenty of capacity to position the two pieces,” said Arsene. Brown added, “The type of crane we are using is proving to be key for our success, and the CTL 430-24 is working great for us and doing its job.” If all continues to go according to plan, SBW will stop using the Terex luffing jib tower crane at the end of 2017. “We’ll finish all the heavy lifting by December, and then we’ll have the smaller finishing stuff throughout the end of contract.” Ingenious Concrete Base Solution To further reduce project costs, SBW’s plan for the CTL 430-24 crane included a freestanding tower that wasn’t tied into the library’s structure. Originally, SBW planned on using an undercarriage strut mounting for the tower section. However, the optional base’s availability was limited and not available in western Canada. SBW put its century-plus concrete fabrication experience to work and consulted with engineering firm, TNAI Engineering Ltd. of Vancouver, to construct a custom concrete base to serve as a tying point for the crane’s tower. TNAI came up with an ingenious way to anchor the crane in a manner that would not require it to be secured directly into the building’s foundation. Anchoring to the foundation would require cutting through the street-
level membrane and closing the three-level underground parking structure. “You don’t know what type of utilities and electrical components you will run into when cutting into the membrane, and this could lead to significant expense and delays,” said Arsene. TNAI’s engineering team came up with a “floating” 32.8- by 32.8 ft. (10 by 10 m), X-shaped concrete base. “When reviewing the parking lot’s drawings, we found columns supporting the library’s parking structure that were built at a 32.8- by 32.8-ft. spacing, so we tied directly into those columns,” said Arsene. The columns served as the anchor conduit to the foundation below the parking structure. The concrete anchor measured 6-ft. (1.8 m) wide, and height along most of the cross section was 6.5-ft. (2 m) tall. The outside 4-ft. (1.2 m) end segments of the structure anchoring into the columns were 8.5-ft. (2.6 m) tall. “This, in essence, gave us 2-foot spacing between the concrete end segments and grade at the center of the X-shape to create the floating base required to properly disperse the load,” said Arsene. By employing the ingenious solution, SBW saved time, lowered costs and allowed the parking structure to remain open during the year-long reconstruction project. “It was a pleasure working with SBW on this project,” said Arsene. “They have the expertise to find the solutions to successfully complete a challenging project like VPL, and they don’t shy away from them.” For more information about SBW, visit http://smithbroswilson.com/.

Grove Launches GMK4090 All-Terrain Taxi Crane
Manitowoc has introduced a new all-terrain crane, the Grove GMK4090. The new taxi crane features a modern, compact design that puts emphasis on roadability and maneuverability. The new crane comes in response to customer demand for lightweight, flexible taxi cranes in the 100-ton (90 t) capacity class. It represents a generational upgrade over the previous GMK40801/GMK4100B, a popular all-terrain crane in Europe due to its versatility in applications, especially with rental companies. Manitowoc also has introduced the GMK4080-2, a similar crane with 90-ton (80 t) capacity. The GMK4090 will be released globally, whereas the GMK4080-2 won’t be available in North America. Andreas Cremer, global product director of Grove all-terrain cranes, said the GMK4090 and the GMK4080-2 models are essentially the same crane, but the GMK4080-2 carries less counterweight, to match the load chart of its predecessor, the GMK4080-1/GMK4100B. “The GMK4090 has been designed with flexibility and maneuverability as main focuses,” he said. “With its best-inclass taxi load chart and compact footprints, this crane will be ideal for a variety of jobs, such as general construction and plant maintenance work. Various counterweight options also give it versatility in roading, which can increase efficiency and return on investment for many owners.” The GMK4090 offers a 167 ft. (51 m), six-section Megaform boom that utilizes Grove’s Twin-Lock pinning system. Boosting its overall reach is a 49 ft. (15 m) bi-fold swing-away jib that can be extended with a 20 ft. (6 m) boom extension for a total jib length of 69 ft. (21 m). The new taxi model also offers excellent roadability and travel features. The GMK4090 can travel with a maximum 20.2-ton (18.3 t) counterweight, and within 13 ton (12 t)/axle it can transport up to 10 ton (9.1 t) to the job site without the need for an additional transport truck. The result is a taxi crane with a strong capacity that can keep transport costs low. The crane features compact dimensions, with a narrow 8.37 ft. (2.55 m) width, so it can easily access and maneuver within the tightest of job sites. It has a minimum tailswing of only 11.58 ft. (3.53 m), so it stays within the maximum outrigger width. The GMK4090 also offers the new MAXbase feature as an option — this variable outrigger setting 22
gives the crane more setup flexibility on the job site, especially when erecting it on irregular job site grounds, and also more capacity when compared with the 360-degree standard load chart. The new crane also features Manitowoc’s crane control system (CCS), an easy-to-use operating interface that has now been standardized across the company’s crane offerings and is featured on every new model. “We spoke to many customers when designing this new crane to fully understand their needs and desires for cranes in this class,” Cremer said. “When seeking to replace the very popular GMK4080-1/GMK4100B, The Grove GMK4090 taxi crane features a modern, compact design that puts emphasis on roadability and maneuverability.
we had to ensure that the GMK4090 would be extremely versatile in travel, set up and lifting options. This is The Manitowoc Way in action, and the result is a new crane that should help crane owners increase efficiency and utilization in their fleets.” For more information, visit www.manitowoc.com.

Looking Back: Truck Cranes
Edgar A. Browning
The photo depicts Universal Lorain truck cranes mounted on Mack AC “Bulldog” chassis’ owned by Elmhurst Construction Company of Corona, NY, ca. 1930’s. Elmhurst owned a fleet of 20 of these cranes which were used in their contracting activities and rented. These mobile truck cranes were rated between 1-9 tons whereas today truck cranes rated at 1200 metric ton capacity or more are manufactured.
