Types of construction cranes and their application

The constant development of cities and the increasing overall dimensions of buildings are reflected in the construction site, where a construction crane is an obligatory solution for the construction of skyscrapers. Although they differ in terms of load capacity, mobility and the individual components depending on the model, their main task is to transport people and building materials vertically. The safety rules also do not differ from the standards, regardless of the type of device used. Using the above-mentioned characteristics, we can distinguish them into a passenger-goods crane (cargo transport ...
