      Hello Nestor, Sorry for the late reply. Been some long days. Go to Amazon and you can purchase a set of 42 practice problems for the Manitowoc LBC. Here is the link www.amazon.com/Manitowoc-LBC-Practice-Problems-Set/dp/B07G7HBMMT/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2YR8L9KX3O6A4&keywords=load+chart+laboratory+manitowoc+lbc+practice+problem&qid=1661399440&sprefix=Load+Chart%2Caps%2C93&sr=8-1
      You can also get practice problems for the Grove TLL.

    I took the nccco test and it had the hose reel as a deduction for the boom truck test,,why????

    • @LoadChartLab
      @LoadChartLab  10 місяців тому +1

      Sorry for late reply. If it is listed as a required deduction in the load chart notes then it must be deducted. From an engineering standpoint I don't know. I'm guessing they are making the assumption the hose reel adds additional loading that must be accounted for.

      The exam is multiple choice. You do not have to show your calculations. If a guy was a good guesser he could simply guess--but that doesn't usually end well--LOL.

    I must have missed something on your first example - how did you get to 1288 lbs for the wire rope deduction - at 2 lbs/ft and 6 parts line, that puts the boom point at 107 ft from datum. Is that correct ?
    Also, do you not consider the wire rope around the block sheaves ?
    For example a 6 part line on 2 foot diameter block sheaves is just short of another 20 feet of rope - or 40 lbs, or am I just being pedantic ?

    • @LoadChartLab
      @LoadChartLab  4 роки тому

      You're right. Should be 1896 for 170 boom, 85 radius and six parts--( boom point at 158 x 2lbs per foot x 6 parts=1896). I got a little sloppy with my numbers with my focus on the steps in the process and laying out the deductions. But if you're sloppy with the numbers the process won't work--LOL. Thanks for pointing it out--I might fix it when a have a day off.

    The load chart wasn't the problem on the computer based test but the questions were a little all over the place. I guess i wasn't as prepared for the crawler specialty as the TLL.

    • @LoadChartLab
      @LoadChartLab  6 років тому +1

      Yea, if it was just the load chart problems it would be much easier. It's the other 18 questions that get a lot of guys. Hang in there and give it another shot. A good book I recommend to all operators is the Crane and Rigging Training Manual by Ronald Garby. This book, along with the OSHA Regs, can help with what I call the "general crane knowledge" questions.

      Austin . . . I've had operators fail the computer based test, and retake it within a couple of weeks. They told me the retake was the exact same test from the first time the took it. No guarantee if you took it again very soon you would see the exact same test, but you might??

    You say you prefer computor based exam, why ?
    I'm watching all your videos now getting ready to get recertified for 2nd time and I keep hearing I should have sighed up for re cert on computer based exam. Operators talking me its easier and much faster and now 12min and 30 into this video I hear you mention you like the calculator in the computer exam and you say you prefer this much more so than written. Plesse advise ? I'm worried bc I got to be re cert by dec31lol. And I'm taking written 14th this week .

    • @LoadChartLab
      @LoadChartLab  6 років тому

      For me I was in a small cubicle all by myself without distractions. Also you know your results immediately and if you didn't pass, you can retake the exam the next week. Also the calculator is part of the computer testing program--you don't have to physically manage a calculator. The computer program will also tell you if you've accidentally skipped a question, or reminds you to go back if you intentionally skipped a question. It really boils down to personal preference--the exam questions are going to be the same. Good luck on recert exams--you do know that the specialty exam is only 10 questions and 7 out of 10 are load chart questions?

    • @LoadChartLab
      @LoadChartLab  6 років тому +1

      Also if you're taking the manitowoc, watch out for retracted crawlers. I emphasize this a lot in the videos because it is very common for CCO to throw this curveball on the manitowoc LBC. Most questions will have extended crawlers but don't be suprised to see one question with crawlers retracted.

    • @LoadChartLab
      @LoadChartLab  6 років тому

      @@lancelarymore1667 retracted crawlers are exactly what you describe (sucked in under the superstructure). Retracted and extended are the terms used in the Manitowoc LBC charts. In the chart there will be a column for being set up with crawlers retracted (sucked in) and a column for crawlers extended. The difference in capacity between the two set ups is pretty big. The data table for each problem will have a box for crawler set up and in the box it will say extended or retracted. Another type of question I've heard about but not seen my self is where they are having you make the pick off the jib and ask for net capacity, with crawlers retracted--this is a trick question. There is not a chart (at least for the CCO test) for lifting off the jib with crawlers retracted. -the correct answer would be 0 or no capacity.

    • @LoadChartLab
      @LoadChartLab  5 років тому

      Thanks for your input. This tutorial applies to a very specific type of problem found on CCO exam--gross load problems. For this type of problem gross load = object weight + deductions. There is normally at least one problem on CCO specialty exam where this formula is needed. The method outlined in the video will result in the correct solution for a gross load problem. You are thinking about gross capacity. Gross capacity is the cranes's capacity before deductions and it is found in the load chart or it could be the line pull capacity. Gross capacity is used to find the crane's net capacity. Net Capacity = gross capacity - deductions. The majority of problems on CCO exam are net capacity. There is a separate video for net capacity calculation and there are also several videos showing the solution for practice/example problems.
