Project Types

Steel Structures We Plan

We provide lift planning for steel erection projects of all sizes, from small portal frames to large multi-storey structures — see our balcony lift verification at Chorlton Baths, Manchester for an example of a recent steel installation we attended on site. For the planning fundamentals, see the most common lift planning mistakes and our comparison of mobile crane vs tower crane for steelwork.

Our Approach

How We Plan Steel Erection

01

Drawing Review

We review fabrication drawings to identify steel weights, lift points, and any handling requirements for each piece.

02

Sequence & Cranes

We plan the erection sequence and select appropriate mobile cranes based on lift weights, radii, and site conditions.

03

Lift Plans

We produce LOLER compliant lift plans for each crane position, including tandem lifts where required.
