AGENCY’S DIRECTOR KEYNOTES NCCCO FOUNDATION’S INDUSTRY FORUM … AND HAS THE ANSWERS OSHA will publish an updated Compliance Directive on its revised crane operator certification standards next spring according to Scott Ketcham, director of OSHA’s directorate of construction. Speaking at the annual NCCCO Foundation Industry Forum held in November, Ketcham teased forum attendees about topics in the upcoming directive as he discussed construction site violations, several related to crane operations. The NCCCO Foundation hosts the annual Industry Forum on Personnel Qualifications. This year marked the sixth forum, and Ketcham returned to keynote a lineup of industry experts discussing issues and trends related to crane and rigging personnel qualifications.

An Eagle Eye On Hazards OSHA’s focus for construction for the next couple of years is its Focus Four Hazards. The agency has identified four hazards responsible for the majority of construction losses: Fall, caught-inbetween, struck-by and electrical. “These hazards account for over 60 percent of fatalities in the construction industry trades,” Ketcham said. “There is quite a bit of focus from the agency regarding them.” The goal in OSHA’s focusing on these four hazards is to get back to the basics of safety, he said. Falls are still the number one killer of construction workers, making up almost 40 percent of all fatalities. Preventing these fatal hazards involves leadership on the part of management; worker participation, hazard assessment, prevention and control, training; a system for evaluating and improving; and communication and coordination with employers on multiemployer work sites. “Multi-employer job sites are not unique to the construction

industry but are a major factor in these types of hazards,” said Ketcham. “The Focus Four program is tailored for construction.” Though last year the pandemic actually reduced the number of OSHA inspections completed, the average penalty for inspection infractions was a little more than $5,500. “When we did issue a citation, 80 percent of the time it was for a serious violation,” said Ketcham. Other violations might be “programmatic issues” not likely to contribute to injury or death, such as a paperwork errors. “Construction apprised 52 percent of all OSHA inspections,” he said. “Of those inspections, there were a lot of unprogrammed activities — fatalities, complaints and referrals.” The agency logged 1,424 fatalities and catastrophes. “Unfortunately, we were quite busy in that area last year,” Ketcham added.. OSHA ranked the Top 10 construction violations through Sept. 30 and fall protection ran far ahead as the number-one condition that OSHA overwhelmingly logs. Ketcham put it bluntly: Fall protection has the highest number of total, willful and repeat violations. He grouped incidents with ladders and scaffolding, fall protection training and aerial lifts with fall hazards, noting there were five or six fall-hazard-related items on the list. New hazards made the most recent Top 10 list: A number of personal protection equipment violations, specifically in the area of eye, face and head protection, were noted. The category of general safety and health provisions made its way onto the list. Employers are required to have a safety and health program in the construction trades. continued on page 10

OSHA notes that falls, including into trenches, are still the number one killer of construction workers, making up almost 40 percent of all fatalities. from page 9

“Our inspectors found a lot of site conditions out there where an employer did not have a safety and health program for the industry or one in place in general,” said Ketcham. Excavation requirements also is on the Top 10 violations list, he said, noting that the agency continues to focus on excavation requirements. This year, powered industrial trucks are a focus, and Ketcham said the industry will begin hear more from OSHA in the future about hazards related to this category of equipment.

Directing Crane Safety Over the past five years, OSHA has logged 118 fatalities involving a crane on a work site, whether it was in construction, general industry or in a maritime setting. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) verified 45 construction-specific crane fatalities in its latest report. Ketcham pointed out that truck-mounted crane fatalities accounted for 28 of the crane fatalities during the five-year period. Thirteen of the truck-mounted crane fatalities happened in construction. Last year, OSHA ranked the order of conditions or actual standards OSHA has found violations on. The most-frequently cited was operator certification. That was followed by power lines, specifically, working too close to power lines. Those two categories were followed by violations related to 12-month annual inspections; operational procedures within the crane cab, specifically involving load charts; keeping clear of the load; operating in a fall zone; power line safety measures including spotters and visual aids; visual inspections; competent person visual inspections; sling radius entrance prevention, qualified rigger; and qualified signalperson. “But the most frequently cited conditions for fiscal year 2021 is operator certification,” said Ketcham. He added the upcoming crane directive, the publication of which has been encumbered by the pandemic, will answer many questions related to operator certification, qualification and eval10

uation. “The directive provides guidance on how OSHA is looking at enforcing the standard,” he said. “We developed it for enforcement people, but it’s a source for industry to know what OSHA is thinking when we’re looking at this standard.” Enforcement-related topics covered in the directive include initiating an inspection and evaluating operator training, certification and evaluation. “We will list things we’re looking for, things we think are important to evaluate in whether an employer is compliant with the intent of the standard.” They include: • how to approach an inspection with multi-purpose equipment on multi-employer work sites; • how to determine whether an operator has received training that meets the requirements of the standard; • what steps should be taken when inspecting and asking about the certification or license of an operator; • how the agency will evaluate fraudulent certifications and testing organizations that don’t meet its requirements; and • when will an employer need to do additional evaluation for an operator. “In addition, we will be kicking out our Small Entity Compliance guide for operator certification and qualification,” said Ketcham. He also directed Forum attendees to the Frequently Asked Questions section of the agency’s webpage, which he said will include additional questions the agency will address formally. “It will address the status of accredited agencies and evaluations” as well as union-operated employer sites that perform crane operator evaluations and whether union halls are considered “agents of an employer” for the rule’s purposes. Ketcham noted other crane-related questions that will be covered in the FAQs. “There was a question about an employee who works for you, leaves, then comes back to work for you after a period of time.

Last year, OSHA ranked the order of conditions or actual standards OSHA has found violations on. The most-frequently cited was operator certification. That was followed by power lines, specifically, working too close to power lines.

Could your evaluation still cover that employee or do you have to re-evaluate him?” The answer, he said, is it depends. “If you found out that operator had an incident before they came back to you, it would be incumbent upon you to find out the circumstances and re-evaluate him.” Is that employee performing the same tasks, in the same configuration as in his previous evaluation, or is he now doing something different? These questions will play into determining the need for re-evaluation, he said.

OSHA Has New Tool OSHA has a new tool in its inspection and enforcement arsenal: Unmanned Aerial Systems, better known as drones. The agency has created a directive on drone usage by inspectors. But Ketcham was quick to point out that OSHA has less than 15 drones nationwide. Reiterating from last year’s Forum, he said, “They’re primarily

using drones in emergency situations.” As an example, he cited an incident involving a communication tower issue. “We needed to go up about 900 feet to evaluate rigging on a tower. That’s a much better use of a drone than to send someone up there to look at that rigging. We would utilize a drone for a situation like that.” He said inspectors might use a drone in an emergency management situation, such as in the event of a flood and natural disaster where the technology would be most useful. In training activities and compliance assistance are two other situations where Ketcham noted a drone might be useful. “I don’t perceive the overwhelming use of drones at any time in the future, but it is a tool for us to use and we will use them in situations that warrant,” he said. Bottom line, he added, the industry can look for a directive on drones to be coming out very shortly. continued on page 25

Carry Deck Crane Helps Chicago Hospital ‘Connecting Links’ Project

To lift the Shuttlelift into place, Central provided a 550-ton Liebherr LTM 1450-8.1 all-terrain crane with 279 ft. of main boom. 12

T’S NOT EVERY DAY that a carry

deck crane gets to play the hero and come to the rescue. As the lift industry has evolved to showcase ever-larger cranes with longer reach and higher capacities, smaller equipment can sometimes seem pushed to the margins. But when Northwestern Memorial Hospital in downtown Chicago had a three-story “connecting link” project with special circumstances, it turned out a 25ton carry deck crane was the perfect piece of equipment for the job. Although the solution is elegant in its simplicity, getting there took the combined efforts of some of the most respected construction, engineering, and heavy lift companies in the Chicago area. Power Construction was general contractor, Chicago Steel the steel erector, Dearborn Companies acted as construction engineering and heavy lift consultant, cranes

were provided by Central Contractors Service, a member of the ALL Family of Companies, and Sterling Lumber provided crane mats. The project, joining the 10th through 13th floors, was especially delicate because the lift equipment selected would need to be positioned atop an eight-story connector between the Galter and Feinberg Pavilions in the medical center complex. The regular daily work functions of the hospital would continue throughout the job, ratcheting up already critical safety concerns (the floor directly under the work zone remained evacuated during the project). Dearborn Companies worked closely with Central Contractors Service to develop specifications the chosen crane would have to fulfill. “We couldn’t place a large crane on the street below and use its longer boom to reach the walkways,” said Michael T. Walsh, president of Dearborn Engineers & Constructors. “The reason was twofold: we couldn’t shut down the nearby roadway for the three-month duration of the project, and the hospital didn’t want us blocking the patient entrance for that long, either.” That meant a crane was going to have to be placed on the eight-story roof, where it could then help construct the walkways to be placed between the ninth through twelfth floors of two taller towers in the

hospital complex. But what kind of crane? A mini crawler was certainly small enough, but it didn’t have the capacity to handle the steel, glass curtainwall, and buckets of concrete needed to construct the walkways. A derrick would have been costly and taken up too much space on the roof. So, Central Contractors Service recommended using its all-terrain crane to lift and set the carry deck crane on the roof. Over the three-month project, the carry deck set 100,000 lbs. of steel, lifted glass for the curtainwall in 3,000-lb. pallets, and hoisted 100 cu. yds. of concrete — done a half-yard at a time to minimize loading on

the existing building structure. General contractor Power Construction maintained monitoring of roof deflection to make sure the carry deck was operating safely. They discovered that, even during the heaviest loads, the roof deflected a scant quarter-inch. The result proved that the meticulous planning paid off — and that Central made the right call in recommending the Manitowoc Shuttlelift CD7725 for the job. “When you’ve got the proper knowledge and expertise behind it, even a small tool can make a big impact,” said Walsh. For more information, visit www.allcrane.com. 

In addition to lifting the carry deck crane, the Liebherr also was tasked with lifting the project’s larger steel beams and columns to the roof. The Shuttlelift set the structural steel while also hoisting curtainwall glass and concrete from street level to the roof and placing it.

NEW EDITION

Lamprell Adds Second Manitowoc Crawler Crane to Support Energy Projects

iddle East-based Lamprell has added to its existing fleet of Manitowoc crawler cranes, with a new 999 model the latest unit to arrive. The company, which provides services to the energy sector, has already set the machine to work at its yard in Hamriyah Free Zone, United Arab Emirates. Here it will help with a variety of tasks in the construction of oil rigs, jackets for offshore wind turbines and more. Martyn Taylor, group operations manager at Lamprell, said the crane would help on client projects within the Middle East and further afield. “We already have six other Manitowoc crawler crane models at our facility, the quality and operability of which have been excellent,” he said. “The cranes most recently helped with the assembly of rigs for a client in the Middle East, and jackets for offshore wind turbines which are destined for a client in the North Sea.” As well as lifting loads of up to 88 tons, the crane also is being used with a man-riding attachment, helping Lamprell access difficult-to-reach points on the continued on page 24

Among the applications for the new crane is specialist man-riding operations to help Lamprell personnel access hard-to-reach spots on its many projects.

ACQUIRING CRANE

According to Soima Cranes Founder Manuel Morais, SCG is the preferred partner to carry on the Soima Cranes legacy.

SCG Takes Over Design, Production of Soima Cranes

rizona-based Stafford Crane Group (SCG) has announced

the acquisition of Portuguese tower crane manufacturer Soima Cranes. With this acquisition, SCG gains control over design and production of its tower crane equipment and will be able to take its customer service in rental operations to the next level, the company said. “The acquisition of Soima allows us to provide better service to our customers in the tower crane rental industry, particularly in terms of competitive pricing and availability of cranes and replacement parts,” said SCG Founder Patrick N. Stafford. “Designing and manufacturing cranes and parts gives us control of the entire customer experience which will save them money directly on pricing and indirectly by avoiding delays.” Family owned and operated, SCG rents, sells and services tower cranes, mobile cranes and construction hoists. It also offers operator, erection and dismantle, technician and consulting services on crane projects throughout the United States and worldwide. According to Soima Cranes Founder Manuel Morais, SCG is the preferred partner to carry on the Soima Cranes legacy. “The Staffords are the right fit to take Soima to the next level,”

he said. “They have global experience and are highly focused on customer satisfaction and growth within the industry. We are confident they will help in the evolution of the Soima.” Stafford added, “Soima is a perfect fit for us, as well. Like SCG, they are a family-owned and operated business dedicated to providing high quality and efficiency in the global crane industry.” Founded in 1977, Soima Cranes has built more than 6,600 tower cranes over its 45-year history on six continents across the globe. Soima will continue to offer a full range of cranes to the global market. Currently, SCG is working with Soima engineers on a new tower crane model specifically for the American market. Upon completion, the Soima 8041 will be a 32-ton flat top crane with an 80-meter jib. It is expected to debut in the United States in early 2022. “The new Soima 8041 is a tower crane designed by rental industry professionals,” said Stafford. “It will be offered at a highly competitive price point compared to other cranes in its class. Between its value and SCG’s post-purchase customer service, including our team of experienced technicians and stocked parts, the 8041 will gain significant market share in the U.S.” For more information, visit www.staffordcranegroup.com. . 

veteran in each HEC training class for NCCCO mobile crane operator certification. “A central component of the NCCCO Foundation’s mission is to facilitate access by veterans to the construction industry,” said NCCCO Foundation CEO Graham Brent, “particularly in the crane and rigging sector. The V.I.C.T.O.R. program is a small but significant step in that direction, and its launch on Veterans Day when we acknowledge the sacrifice of those who served to protect that which we hold most dear could not be more appropriate.” A key factor in the decision to develop this program with Heavy Equipment Colleges of America, Brent said, was HEC’s status as an authorized organization through the Department of Defense’s SkillBridge program that allows service members to gain valuable civilian work experience through specific industry training, apprenticeships, or internships during their last 180 days of service. “HEC is proud to help veterans and civilians to find rewarding careers in the construction industry,” said HECA CEO Bob Albano, “and the V.I.C.T.O.R. program will serve to reward excellence among our veteran students.” The V.I.C.T.O.R. program will be offered at HEC campuses at the Ft. Irwin Base in California and at Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Washington State.

NECESSARY UPGRADE You don’t get to clock over 65 years of successfully renting machinery to the oil refinery, chemical plant and heavy construction industries of the Gulf Coast without displaying a firm commitment to reliability — and that’s precisely why Groves Equipment Rental has ordered 14 brand new Grove cranes. By replacing its smaller, decadeold range of Grove RT540 to RT890 rough-terrain models with 14 Grove cranes including GRT8100, GRT8120 and GRT655 models, the Texas-based company is maintaining its long-standing tradition of continually upgrading its machines to provide one of the most up-todate rental fleets in the industry. Additionally, this upsizing was carried out in response to both changes in customer demand and the increase in market confidence ahead of the anticipated upturn in infrastructure projects and (L-R) are Groves Equipment energy sector work in 2022. President Steve McReynolds; “The 90 t to 100 t rough terEVP Trevor McReynolds; and rains have become the backVPs Logan Delcambre and Don bone of our fleet — they’re a Romaine. popular size with our customers, many of whom build or do maintenance work for petrochemical facilities,” explained Steve McReynolds, president of Groves Equipment Rental, which was founded by McReynolds’ grandfather in 1955. “We’ve had at least 25 Grove RT890s in our fleet over the years, and the GRT8100 is a significant evolution of that model. Our customers especially like the new crane control system [CCS]. It’s very user-friendly and a lot easier for diagnostics.” Common to all current Grove models, as well as Manitowoc and Potain-branded cranes, CCS features two full-color graphic displays for easier viewing of vital settings, with an armrest-mounted joystick and jog dial for more ergonomic navigation and data input. Intuitive and easy-to-use, the system reduces the amount of training required, enabling operators to switch between crane models with ease. For example, the boom configurator feature will suggest — and, if desired, enable — the most efficient settings for lifting a specified load using the sequenced, synchronized extension capability of the GRT8120’s seven-section, full-power MEGAFORMTM 37.2 to 197 ft. telescopic boom. “The GRTs’ boom lengths are a major selling point for us,” McReynolds said. “After we took delivery of our first GRT8120 in December 2020, we introduced it to our customers, and the extra reach has been a huge benefit to them for core plant maintenance — so much so that we’ve secured long-term contracts with them. At 197 ft. tip height, it can execute high-reach lifts but still give you a lot of versatility at a competitive rental rate.”

Two-Year Standard Warranty Despite having a much more compact carrier footprint than the RT890, the GRT8100’s greater 43 ft. of tip height — courtesy of its additional boom section — and extra 10 tons of maximum capacity is an exceptional improvement that has impressed customers, according to the company.

Groves Equipment Rentals Upsizes Fleet With 14 Cranes

The new GRT range boasts a two-year standard bumper-tobumper warranty, with the option to extend to five years. “The range has a sleeker look with a lower center of gravity for easier transport, and the folding jib system is simpler to use,” McReynolds said. “And here in the Gulf, where high temperatures coupled with long hours in the cab can really take it out of operators, the upgraded AC system in the new full-vision, 20-degree tilting cab is a game-changer.” Having offered a wide range of heavy construction equipment since its founding in 1955, the name of this fourth-generation, family-owned firm relates to the location of its Groves, Texas, headquarters, approximately 90 mi. east of Houston, in Jefferson County. It also operates out of Channelview (Houston) and Sulphur, La. The company’s name also is a coincidental tie to its loyalty to the Grove crane brand. The McReynolds have been Grove customers since the 1970s, when they purchased the popular RT52 (later RT58B) models. Due to a strong partnership with the local dealer, MGX Equipment Services, its fleet of Grove cranes expanded rapidly during the 1990s, supporting its strong growth in the Gulf. “I’ve been doing this just shy of 40 years so I’m old school,” McReynolds said. “I was raised in this industry and greatly appreciate having a designated dealer in my backyard. Dependable service is the equalizing force for us — it’s vital we have the latest equipment to give us the advantage over our competition. We supply the cranes our customers prefer.” For more information about Groves Equipment Rental, visit www.grovesequipment.com/.

END OF AN ERA Last 1600/2 Leaves Liebherr Plant in Ehingen The 660 ton (600 t) LR 1600/2 crawler crane is being removed from the Liebherr crawler crane portfolio. Two hundred and twenty three of them have been built and delivered to customers over a period of almost 13 years. Its successor has already been launched in the form of the LR 1700-1.0.

LR 1600/2 Large Volume Wind Power Crane The LR 1600/2 originally was designed as a crane for wind power and the first one was delivered in summer 2008. In addition to the standard version, a version with narrow crawler track, known as the LR 1600/2-W, also was marketed successfully over a period of 10 years.

A daily job for the LR 1600/2: installation of wind power components.

With ballast wagon — the LR 1600/2 installing a dam wall in Alaska.

The main feature of this version was the fact that it could travel along narrow crawlers in wind farms considerably more easily than the standard version. The narrow track version accounted for around one-quarter of all these cranes in worldwide use. Initially, the LR 1600/2 was delivered in its SL4DFB configuration, designed for wind turbines with a hub height of 426.5 to 443 ft. In this configuration, the crane had a main boom of 452.7 ft. and a fixed jib of 39 ft. This was the benchmark for turbines with a hub height of 443 ft. Over the next few years, however, the size of wind turbines increased dramatically up to hub heights of 492 ft. or more. This altered the requirements for the crane, which the designers at Liebherr followed closely. The lifting capacities and hoisting heights of the boom systems were continuously modified with the SL10 and SL13 versions, which both became established on the market. These booms enabled the crane to handle wind turbines with hub heights of 492 ft. However, the LR 1600/2 was not just used for wind power, it also was used in industry and for infrastructure projects shortly after the first one was delivered to

its customer. Often equipped with a ballast wagon or suspended ballast, the 660 ton crane impressed users with its lifting capacity. Over the years, Liebherr unveiled more innovations for its crawler crane portfolio, such as the B2 guide and VarioTray for suspended ballast, which eliminates the complicated stacking and unstacking of ballast slabs by simply disconnecting a whole ballast pallet.

Successor Standing Ready The final LR 1600/2 was delivered to van Adrighem based in the Netherlands at the end of October. However, its successor is

already on the market in the form of the LR 1700-1.0. The first of these was delivered in June 2021. The new 771.6 ton (700 t) crane meets the new requirements which the LR 1600/2 could no longer satisfy. New wind turbines with hub heights of 541 ft., requiring loads of over 110 tons (100 t) to be hoisted to this height, are challenges to which Liebherr has responded with its new LR 1700-1.0. It is significantly more powerful than its predecessor and in some load cases even comes close to the LR 1750/2. For more information, visit www.liebherr.com.  Departure of the last of its kind – the slewing platform of the last LR 1600/2 leaves the crane factory in Ehingen.

TRAVELING SIMS

N RESPONSE to worsening labor shortages, NJ Crane Expert announced simulation training for mobile crane operators — and those who aspire to have a career as a certified crane operator. NJ Crane Expert has added two mobile crane simulators to its hands-on training. The traveling simulators provide safe and efficient training to those in the construction and utilities industries. NJ Crane Expert developed a trailer to safely transport the crane simulators to where the workers and students are located, bringing the simulators to the job site or company office throughout the contiguous United States. “It’s important for small and medium businesses to have access to affordable training,” explained Hans Tielmann, master crane trainer and owner. “Bringing this technology directly to the businesses provides them with efficiency and cost savings. That’s important for companies watching their bottom line, while looking to raise the standard in safe work environments.” This service creates a unique opportunity that will be a boon for the construction industry — and its workers — as the need for people with verified skills ramps up

over the next two years. And, as OSHA requires crane operators to be certified, the simulation training ensures they’ll not only have classroom experience, but vital machinery experience as well. Construction projects have experienced a significant dip due to the pandemic; historically construction slowdowns result in worker shortages. In fact, at the end of 2020, 59 percent of construction firms were concerned about inexperienced skilled labor and/or a workforce shortage, according to the 2021 Association of General

Contractors Construction Outlook. Additionally, 20 percent of northeastern construction firms had concerns regarding inadequate construction education and training. When it comes to something as complex as operating a crane, those are stark numbers. Crane accidents aren’t always fatal, but they can cause significant bodily harm to employees as well as costly property damage. And, fines, fees and insurance premium increases (or cancellations) are financial killers. With its focus on safety, NJ Crane Expert wants to ensure every construction job site has a certified and qualified crane operator. NJ Crane Expert offers classes in English and Spanish in New Jersey and throughout the country. NJ Crane Expert’s mission is to empower its students with the knowledge and skills needed to perform in a fast-paced, highrisk work environment. With more than 50 years of collective experience, its trainers know the dangers of job sites for arborists, contractors and utility workers. For more information, visit njcraneexpert.com. 

Crane Industry’s Inquiring Minds NCCCO Foundation CEO Graham Brent formulated attendee questions for Ketcham. Topics ranging from operator evaluations to medical qualifications made the list of questions: Telehandlers were absorbed into the crane standard when used with a hook. Has that changed, or will a winch and hook be required? “Telehandlers will be covered in an upcoming rulemaking in the Crane Amendments,” said Ketcham. “That question has been asked by industry and we will address it there.” Any sense of when we’ll see the crane directive document? “Yes. The regular agenda has not been updated yet, but I’d say in the spring you’ll see something on that.” What’s OSHA’s view on voluntary certifications for foundation drilling rig operations? “We would not have a problem with voluntary certification. I can certainly get behind that.” Any movement on stabilization monitoring issues related to knuckleboom cranes? “All I can say is yes, that also is part of

our rulemaking under crane amendments to the Cranes & Derricks standard.” Will enforcement look at medical evaluations and physical qualifications for operators?

“When we look into medical evaluations, many times we have to go through the courts to obtain a medical access order. As a routine practice, I’d say no, but if conditions warrant it I can’t say never.”  CQ
