Crane Lift Planning AI
AI-assisted crane lift planning for safe and efficient heavy lifts.
Definition
Crane Lift Planning AI helps plan complex crane lifts by analyzing load weights, lift radii, crane capacities, and ground conditions. It creates lift plans, determines required rigging, and identifies potential hazards to ensure safe execution of critical lifts on construction sites.
In Depth
Crane lift planning for heavy picks — setting steel trusses, placing mechanical equipment, and lifting precast panels — requires calculating loads, reach, and capacity for each planned lift. AI optimizes the lift plan by evaluating crane positions, boom configurations, and lift sequences to maximize productivity while maintaining safety factors.
The capacity analysis considers the crane's rated capacity at the specific radius and boom length required for each lift, accounting for derating factors for wind, swing, and dynamic loading. AI evaluates multiple crane positions and boom configurations for each lift, finding the setup that provides the maximum safety factor while minimizing the number of crane moves between lifts.
