Assembling a Tower Crane - Part 1 (of 2)
Ойын-сауық
Watching the assembly of a #construction #towercrane timelapse-style with sped-up video and some actual time-lapses. This is part 1, which covers some of the preparations in the days and weeks prior to assembly, as well as placing the mast segments on the first day of the assembly.
Part 2, which covers the second day of the assembly is here: • Assembling a Tower Cra...
At the beginning this includes some of the preparation work already seen in Weeks 2, 3 and 4 of the "Ⓢ Series" of videos on this channel, and then much more detail and previously-unseen video of the actual assembly (which was only covered briefly in Week 4's original video).

Nice recap for the viewers and welcome back. Cheers
Hat’s off to the media company great for positioning the camera so well. The weather was fantastic too. A bit cold but perfect for erecting the tower crane. The crane erectors were very professional and well organised. Great base electrical panel with plenty of room to wire up the mains cable and fixed at the perfect height. Looking forward to part 2. 🇦🇺
Exciting start! Part 1 of the tower crane assembly process provides an intriguing glimpse into the intricate steps involved in erecting such a massive structure. Can't wait to see the rest unfold!
Oh yea! This brings back memories!
Killer soundtrack and visuals. Haven't had this much fun watching and listening to a video. Thanks

My 1st construction job was on a 10 story building in Nashville 30+ yrs ago. The structure was built using a very large Manitowoc crawler and that operator was by far the loudest human on the planet which was handy because he regularly worked green riggers including me. Once while swinging close to the building, the hoist cable slipped into a snap clevice that was securing a safety net around the 8th floor. No way to unhook it but for a volunteer to ride the headache ball straight up and unlatch it. Cheers.

Excellent video, with zoom ins, and showing all the details and all the steps. Please make more videos like that, for different phases of construction. LIke SOE, Foundation, substructure, superstructure phase, cocoon system, suspended scaffolds, demolitions, etc. Thanx. P.S. You dont need the silly music, natural sound will be best

Good sincerity and know-how.
When I was 16 I got to ride to the top of one of these cranes in a two man basket. Taking the step from the basket to the cab was scary as hell. Then I got to watch the technician I was with walk out on the boom and repair whatever it was that was broken.
F Great time, I enjoyed, brought back a lot of memories.

You usually just need a bigger mobile crane. This one wasn't using all of his counterweight or jib, so it can probably take the tower down with the rest of the weights and jib on.
Spoke to soon. Saw their method of torquing those nuts on the crane sections
@frankely6378
Жыл бұрын
What it looks like they are doing is actually tensioning the bolts. Which is the basic goal of torquing a bolt, but more accurate. It looks like the tool is actually grabbing the top of the stud and pulling it, then just run the nut down snug to hold the tension. This is a great way of doing this because it eliminates the big variable of the friction between the nut and the bolt, and it saves having to apply huge torque values.
Saw them putting the nuts on the bolts hand tight but did anyone tighten them. Swaying a bit at the top now.
Great video I really enjoyed! It’s seems very interesting job all workers doing great job specially the guys to climb the tower to assemble the following sections.. But my question is what is the maximum age to operate these cranes seems like a job for strong men.
Ah, they tighten the nuts later. Great shots from the camera man

Amazing construction in preparation to construct a building. Those crane segments appear to be 40’ each in length. Anyone know what the actual dimensions are?

Peiner sections are 6 meters or just shy of 20 feet. These are double stacks or two at a time so 40 feet is about right.
What torque tool is that for the tower bolts
what happens if a nut or both nut and bolt is missing and not tightened during assembly?
Where is this being built?

@kerrryschultz2904

There is a piece that is concreted in and just above that is the section that is held in by a tapered wedge. That wedge is driven out and allows that section to be removed . Anything which is slight can then be torched off level with the concrete.
What happened to the electric impact guns to torque down those bolts on the section? Would’ve loved to seen the torque wrench they used.

@@firesurfer HYDRAULIC, look up how ships engine bolts are torqued, this is the same, a hydraulic jack supplies the 'squeeze', then they just do the nut up by hand (or tommy bar, etc), that's it, the nuts hold the 'squeeze' the expanding cylinders place on the joint, so no grunting from the workers!- the hydraulic pressure on the guage is the torque applied, NO MATHS needed, easy.
