Yet Again, OSHA Shies Away From Crane Certification Deadline By Emily Buenzle CEG WEB EDITOR
Years after it was first proposed in 2010, OSHA’s Cranes and Derricks Certification rule still isn’t ready. In 2014, the agency extended the rule for the first time for a compliance date three years later on Nov. 12, 2017, but as that date draws near, OSHA has proposed yet another extension until Nov. 10, 2018, to address concerns stakeholders have raised about the certification requirements. OSHA said that as it is right now, the rule requires operators be certified by both type and capacity, but that has caused problems among some of the largest testing organizations in the country. Two such organizations have issued certifications to crane operators according to the equipment type, but not according to its capacity. Because of this, crane operators who believed their certifications were valid now must contend with the fact that they are not actually certified according to the rule. That’s not the only issue OSHA is trying to resolve. Representatives from the crane industry are also pushing the agency to revise the rule so it keeps a requirement allowing employers to decide whether or not their operators are capable of using the cranes they are working with on a job site. As the rule stands now, employers must: • be certain that crane operators who are covered by the standard can safely operate the equipment they are using;

Crane operators become qualified to operate certain types of equipment in unique situations through experience. In other words, just receiving one’s certification isn’t necessarily enough to deem a crane operator worthy of any crane-related task. 12
• train workers before they operate the equipment when they don’t have the “required knowledge or ability to operate” it safely; and • make sure workers have been properly tested to confirm the fact that they have understood the materials covered in training. OSHA said these requirements will remain intact until next November, if the proposed rule is finalized. Industry Weighs In In an effort to get the rule right, OSHA formed the Cranes and Derricks Negotiated Rulemaking Committee (C-DAC) more than 14 years ago. The group met about once a month in Washington, D.C. for a year before finalizing the standard. James Headley, CEO of Crane Institute of America Certification (CIC), one of only four accredited crane certification organizations in the United States, suggested to OSHA in a separate stakeholders meeting that the agency simply choose and say that operators either be certified by type and capacity or by type to help make certifications uniform. The International Union of Operating Engineers (IUOE), which represents the industry’s heavy equipment operators in North America, agrees that the agency must work to clarify the roles type and capacity will play, and has suggested the agency remove capacity entirely. In a letter sent to OSHA in September 2017 in support of the agency’s proposed delay, IUOE General President James T. Callahan said, “A requirement that certified operators be re-tested on a higher capacity crane of the same ‘type’ does not advance safety and imposes tremendous financial burdens on employers and individual crane operators. It simply does not represent the best practice in the certification of crane operators today. The identification of the problem is broadly shared and the remedy to it is simple and straightforward—eliminate certification by capacity.” Not Just About Certification For Headley, the proposed rule had another key problem. In the current regulations, certification is equal to qualification. The truth, Headley said, is that this simply isn’t true. Crane operators become qualified to operate certain types of equipment in unique situations through experience. In other words, just receiving one’s certification isn’t necessarily enough to deem a crane operator worthy of every crane-related task. What’s more, Headley said no one, even OSHA, agrees with certification being synonymous with qualification; allowing the rule to stand as it is would penalize OSHA because it would hinder safety in the industry. The IUOE feels similarly. “The members of C-DAC agreed that third-party certification is indispensable to verify a worker’s minimum competency,” said Callahan. “Certification alone, however, is simply insufficient in the absence of subsequent employer qualification to ensure that a crane operator is qualified to safely operate the crane to which he or she is assigned.” What’s more, Headley said C-DAC discussed the length of time cer-

(The Crane Institute of America)
According to Headley, accredited organizations employ a committee of subject matter experts (SMAs) who determine how to set up the crane certification, including the domains, or areas, the written exam should cover, as well as the practical exam, which is meant to replicate conditions crane operators could see on a work site.
tifications are currently good for—five years. “That’s a long time,” Headley said. According to Headley, OSHA did bring up the possibility of performing some sort of incremental evaluation throughout those five years, which may be geared at operators who don’t accumulate enough hours of crane work. Whether the agency decides to adopt this type of evaluation into the rule, however, remains to be seen. For now, Headley said The Crane Institute is preparing for the rule based on the information it already has. “We know type and capacity has been in the standard since 2010,” said Headley. “[We’ve developed] our program around type and capacity. If [OSHA] were to change the rule to just type, that would be one of the most unjust things, for them to go in and change it to type which would force us to change our program when we developed our certification program based on what they said they would require in the law.” When asked how he thought OSHA should handle the rule overall, Headley had a straightforward answer. “I think OSHA should come in, do away with type and capacity and just say that the operator should be certified through an accredited testing organization,” Headley said. His reasoning is that it takes a lot for an organization to become an accredited source for crane certification, and any organization that has obtained this distinction is already stringent with its testing standards. According to Headley, accredited organizations employ a committee of subject matter experts (SMEs) who determine how to set up the crane certification, including the domains, or areas, the written exam should
cover, as well as the practical exam, which is meant to replicate the basic conditions crane operators could see on a work site. With the SMEs handling the testing, OSHA’s specific input isn’t really necessary, Headley said. “Let the testing organizations determine how to do it. For example, by type and capacity or by type or a combination of both for some equipment.” Still Waiting But as things stand, all the industry can do is wait some more, which the IUOE said could be leading to unsafe practices. “Following OSHA’s announcement in May 2013 that it was contemplating a delay the industry saw a reduction in companies voluntarily seeking certification,” said Callahan in his letter to OSHA. “Employers, understandably, have expressed the view that they do not want to spend money to certify their operators until there is clear administrative direction on certification requirements.” The delay has held back state and local lawmakers as well, Callahan said. “Confusion and delay have also led to uncertainty by safety regulators in state and local government,” said Callahan. “In fact, not a single state has enacted an operator certification law since 2011.” In his letter, Callahan urged OSHA to complete the rule by November 2018, saying, “Unnecessary delays with this regulation will create confusion in the industry that ultimately undermines workplace safety.” CQ (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Terex AC 350/6 Provides Big Assist With ‘The Back Porch Revival’ Setup Cedar Rapids, Iowa-based Tri-State Crane & Rigging Service began in 2004 as an offshoot company to support the steel fabrication and erection business of its sister company, Cedar Valley Steel Inc. (CVS). Before forming Tri-State, CVS owned a few rough-terrain cranes but mainly rented crane equipment for its steel erection services. However, business growth had CVS often renting the cranes it owned to its customers, so CVS decided to get into the crane equipment business. “We formed Tri-State as a differentiator when we purchased Anderson Crane Service in 2004,” said Craig Breitbach, president of TriState and CVS, also of Cedar Rapids. Starting with eight cranes, Tri-State expanded its fleet over the years through company acquisition and systematic growth of its mobile crane equipment to meet the needs of a growing customer base. Wayne Kempft, sales representative of RTL Equipment, a Terex Cranes distributor, said, “Strategic purchases like the flexible 80-ton class Terex Crossover 8000 boom truck and 240-ton capacity class Terex AC200-1 all-terrain crane helped to fuel Tri-State’s growth.” Today, Tri-State supports CVS and provides crane rental and heavy haul services to external customers. With a fleet of more than 50 cranes,

the crane company travels a market that includes Iowa, Nebraska, Minnesota, Illinois, North and South Dakota, Wisconsin and Missouri. When adding crane equipment, Breitbach only partners with manufacturers who share the same sense of urgency as he does on steel projects. “When a crane is down, it’s not just the five guys working with the crane who don’t have work. This also stops the trades like drywall workers, roofers and electricians,” he said. “The support received from RTL and Terex is one reason why Tri-State’s fleet includes a sizeable number of Terex models.” Risk-Reward Even with its sizeable fleet, Tri-State was still missing something. Its fleet topped off at the 240-ton (220 t) class, so the company frequently turned down larger lifting projects. This led Breitbach and Marty Recker, Tri-State’s general manager, to investigate the 400-ton (350 t) capacity class. Jumping to a higher class can be a bit daunting for a crane company, since there is often the question as to whether the market has enough work for the crane. However, Tri-State worked with RTL and Terex to

review market opportunities and select the versatile 400-ton class Terex AC 350/6 all-terrain crane for maximizing the number of lifting opportunities in the market. Tri-State quickly capitalized on the crane’s flexibility. “The AC 350/6 has a 210-foot main telescoping boom and an impressive 412.4-foot maximum system length. By rigging the crane with its Superlift system, it can out-perform cranes in the 440-ton class,” said Bryce Meier, regional business manager of Terex Cranes. “It also is the most compact 6-axle crane produced, which gives Tri-State a high capacity crane that can fit in tight spaces.” A compact footprint delivers huge advantages for Tri-State when working for its industrial customers. “We often work in confined areas, where the crane’s accessibility and reach come in handy,” said Breitbach. “When servicing our corn and cereal plant customers, we need a big crane with high lift capacity that can fit into tight places.” Recker appreciates the crane’s quick set-up with its fully automatic counterweight rigging system. “We can rig the crane with full counterweight within four hours,” he said. “We use this crane for projects ranging from a half-day to several weeks, and we de-rate the crane and efficiently use it on lifting projects that don’t require full counterweight.”
A compact footprint delivers huge advantages for Tri-State when working for its industrial customers.
The Back Porch Revival Without the reach, capacity and quick setup offered by the AC 350/6 crane, Tri-State would not have been able to successfully bid a unique project at a local university to kick off the 2016/17 football season. A benefit concert for the Native Fund held at The University of Iowa’s football stadium featured headliner Blake Shelton and other Country Music icons. The concert had big-name bands, well-known sponsors and one major unforeseen issue — accessibility. “No tunnel was large enough to get the equipment or stage into the stadium,” said Recker. Organizers needed a way to get everything inside the stadium quickly and efficiently. Tri-State devised a plan that positioned the Terex AC 350/6 crane outside the northwest stadium corner to hoist all the equipment and materials over the walls and onto the field.
“We would need the full 257,300 pounds of counterweight and use the full 210 foot telescoping boom,” said Recker. Organizers agreed to the proposal, and Tri-State moved the AC 350/6 crane and six trailers transporting the counterweight slabs into position. The crane was ready for its first lift in less than four hours. “In about 1.5 days, our crew made a total of 50 picks, which included the stage, truss work, equipment and concrete blocks,” said Recker. The heaviest lift was a Genie S65 telescopic boom used for stage construction. Even with the crane working at extended boom length and radius, it gave Tri-State’s crews plenty of capacity to lift the 11-ton (10 t) boom into the stadium. “When the concert was over, we completed tear down in one day,” said Recker.

Tri-State expanded its fleet over the years through company acquisition and systematic growth of its mobile crane equipment to meet the needs of a growing customer base.

Two Firms Meet for Iconic Moment
In what is best described as an iconic moment, three generations of Hoffman leadership gathered this summer for a job tour with George Harms Construction Co. on the site of the new Route 72/Manahawkin Bay Bridge in Long Beach Island, N.J. Harms Construction is a large, New Jersey-based contractor that specializes in bridge construction, highway construction, foundation work, and pipeline construction. While G. Harms Company has been a loyal Manitowoc user since the early 1990’s, Hoffman Equipment and Harms Construction began business together in 2002 when Hoffman became the dealer of Manitowoc in New York and New Jersey. This long relationship was strengthened again recently when GHC took delivery of their largest crawler crane to date and the most technologically advanced crawler crane available — the Manitowoc MLC 300. This crane has a 330-ton capacity and utilizes Manitowoc’s VPC technology to enhance lift capacities and reduce operating weight. The new crane had just been delivered to the Rt. 72 job when Hoffman leadership caught up with it for a look-see. Current President of Hoffman Equipment, Tim Watters, carries a predisposition for cranes, probably a result of Hoffman’s history as a crane and rigging company before becoming a distributor of construction equipment in 1978. Watters loves the MLC 300, noting that it offers customers the best capacity to weight ratios and capacity to invested capital of any crawler in the industry. Former presidents Joe Watters (80 years young), who was president from 1978-2002, and uncle, Harry Hoffman (93 years young), who was the president of the company from 1961-1978, have heard so much from Tim about the crane that they wanted to see it for themselves. So, on a beautiful, sunny day in July all three generations of company leadership visited the site where crews were and were given a thorough site tour by Kevin Harms and Jason Hardell of George Harms Construction Co. As the crane is located in the middle of Barnegat Bay, the tour was conducted aboard a Harms workboat on the site. Not only were the former presidents impressed by the crane, they also enjoyed sharing industry “war stories” with the relative youngsters. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Three Link-Belt TCCs Save Time in Upstate N.Y
A joint venture with Skanska, Burns & McDonnell and ECCO Enterprises is building CPV Valley Energy Center in Lower Hudson Valley, 65 mi. northwest of New York City. The combined cycle power facility will have a gross capacity of 675 mW, producing enough electricity for 600,000 homes and more than 400 commercial entities. Green technology is being used with two Siemens F Class combustion turbine generator sets and one steam turbine for the nearly $1 billion project. The steam turbine generator will have natural gas-fired duct burners for additional electrical production during peak periods of energy demand. ACC (air cooled condenser) piping up to 24 ft. (7.3 m) in diameter and up to 150 ft. (45.7 m) long will be used for the combined cycle power facility. Two 140-ton (127 t) TCC-1400s and one 110-ton (99.8 t) TCC-1100 telescopic crawler cranes unload, sort and assemble the piping shells at various locations. All Link-Belt TCCs have complete 360-degree pick-n-carry charts to easily maneuver around the job site. While relocating ACC pipe sections, the TCC-1400 proved itself when having to work its way between concrete pipe footing pedestals. Pipe sections weighing between 28,000 and 48,000 lbs. (12,700 and 21,772 kg) were lifted at a radius up to 40 ft. (12.1 m) with 84.5 ft. (25.8 m) of boom. Joe Uva is Skanska’s regional crane director and was responsible for bringing in the Link-Belt TCCs for the project. “I do all the specs for a project. Once I understand a project team’s needs, I bring in the cranes available to supply those needs. Many times, team members don’t realize the advantages and benefits of a telescopic crawler crane. From past experience, I know what I can get out of cranes like this when I have low angle work, as I have on this job, beneath unfinished construction or buildings. The [TCC] crane’s mobility, and the amount of time that the company saves in moving in and setting up, and their low boom angle chart really brings a lot to the table. So I need to go with these machines,” Uva said.

Link-Belt telescopic crawler cranes also sit wider on outriggers than the competition for solid self-assembly. Both the TCC-1100 and TCC1400 have tapered axles instead of traditional stub axles which allow for easier side frame install. “We used the TCC-1100 for a project under the Brooklyn Bridge. We took it off the trailer, set it up, and had it working within an hour. I did my drilled shafts and got out of there in minimal time. With the other TCC-1400, it’s virtually the same process, it just needs more counterweight, so it just takes a little more to set it up, but that’s it,” he continued. When not assisting the TCC-1400 dedicated to lifting ACC pipe, the TCC-1100 travels to the far end of the complex to offload skids and transport trailers loaded by the second TCC-1400 at an offsite laydown yard. The skids include large duct shells that weigh as much as 42,000 lbs. (19,050 kg). “The TCC cranes are versatile and easy to move around the job. You cut down on set up time and the need for extra men to move around outrigger pads. The operator is not worried about telescoping out, and setting up in the right place. He just moves quickly to the right position. There is a tremendous amount of savings by using these machines,” said Uva. For more information, visit www.linkbelt.com.

Looking Back: Universal Lorain Truck Cranes
Edgar A. Browning photo
A portion of Elmhurst Contracting’s fleet of Universal-Lorain truck cranes are lined up. The truck chassis’ are all Mack “Bulldogs”.
By Edgar A. Browning SPECIAL TO CEG
The first fully revolving crane mounted on a motor truck was designed and built by Universal in 1918. It was mounted on a Mack AC “Bulldog” chain drive chassis. The No. 1 Universal, as it was called, was rated at 3.5 tons with a 20 ft. boom at a 10 ft. radius. By 1938 the Universal truck mounted crane capacity had grown to 13 tons with booms available to 80 ft. or longer. The Elmhurst Contracting Company Inc. of Corona, Long Island, N.Y., had one of the largest fleets in the greater NYC area. Elmhurst owned 39 of the truck cranes the majority mounted on Mack chassis.
