How to choose the suitable crane capacity
You may use this chart as a basic guideline to determine
which crane to be used. But, it is advisable to do site visit to see if there is any
obstacle or anything that can disturb the lifting activity. For example, high
structure within the lifting radius.
How to use the chart? Refer at the bottom right of
the diagram.
From the example given in the table, we can know that in order to lift 2T load at 12m working radius, we need to use at least crane with capacity of 20T.
To reconfirm, do a site visit to see either we can use that 20T
crane or need to upgrade to higher capacity or need to install additional
luffing/jib
The chart is available on the net. For example, you may take it from
