We will discuss an external climbing setup. Both luffing and hammerhead cranes can climb. This process is usually done for high rise construction, where the crane will raise itself up by adding more tower sections as the building is being constructed, and remove tower sections once the crane is no longer needed. 1. Crane lifts additional tower section and suspends it from extendable monorail. Bolts of top tower section are removed Hydraulic rams lift top section of crane and climbing frame Additional tower section is drawn into the climbing frame and bolted at top and bottom by the tower crane rigging crew.
To climb down the reverse procedure is followed

try get a start with a good mobile crane company. do a couple of years dogging mobile cranes, then try to get onto dogging tower cranes. wherever you are try to get permanent job, then more chance they will train you up. Eventually as crane operator. also if you register with cfmeu as dogman / crane operator they have industry meetings. good way to meet ppl, find out whats going on and find jobs. When you do your ticket talk to the trainer and assessor and swap numbers, they are also a good resource for jobs as they know everyone Comments are closed.
