  • In this video, we finally have drone footage of the crane working. We used the Tadano 180g-5 to set a modular house on a basement. The house halves weighed approximately 32,000 pounds each.

    Jimmy; this is your coolest video, you are so fortunate to have a drone pilot willing to share his video, FAA rules & such.
    What strikes me is that you must be on the edge of your chart with the first piece, or you wouldn't be so close with the second. It is nerve racking to have such a large object that close to you & your rig.
    Nice job, great video!

      Thank you! When I set the first half, I had about 18k pounds of capacity left. I place the crane at the same basic distance from the basement on all houses (if possible). Being that close gives a good safety factor. Especially given that backfill can sometimes be fairly unpredictable. Setting up close lowers the outrigger forces on the ground. Many thanks for watching! 🙂

    The drones I see most people use is the Maverick MJ 3 pro. I buddy of mine that flys crops that's what he uses it can go up to 300-400 up in the air an out to 4 miles away. He can get up to 45 minutes on a calm day windy days 20-30 minutes.
    Put this is some good footage.

    Jimmy, I really like the perspective a drone can provide. That said, I try to learn from your content. Drone perspectives don't have the important details, like working with load charts, measuring distances from the crane's COR to the load, using info from the crane's console to stay within load limits and catching swing. That's the stuff that makes crane work interesting and safe.!

    Hey Jimmie!
    The drone footage is a nice change of pace (not to say that i am tired of your other video formats). A drone offers a perspective that you can't get with a GoPro mounted to the crane. The balancing act, is the time it takes to become a good pilot, and the cost of the drone that flies well and has a decent camera. I have worked with a few drone pilots with work and some consulting that I do, and the good quality drones that have more that 20-30 minutes of fly time are $2500+. That fly time is also heavily dependent on the wind conditions, which you are probably not going to work in anyway.
    I have seen company's use drones for survey work, but the issue is the FAA licensing. My suggestion: do your research and if you want to get in to drones, buy a cheap one that has a similar control as what you will eventually want, and practice, practice, practice. The shots that make drone footage cool, are the moving shots. Which are the more difficult shots to pull off.
    Thank you for your commitment to improving your channel and educating us wanna-be's!!

    Great drone footage. Like seeing the whole work site, but, it’s going to be hard for you to operate the crane and drone both. Perspective of drone is good, but, the sit of pants is more like it. The sit of pants shows more of you and crane working. Still a good video. Use your best judgment about a drone. Keep up the good work.

    Great video. I've never seen a house set in this fashion. I've only seen them set using a spreader bar and then straight down to the base of the house. It seems to me you would be pulling in on the facial of the house. If I'm wrong please correct me.

    • @ToTheTopCrane
      @ToTheTopCrane  4 роки тому +1

      Long rigging minimizes the lateral force on the facia of the house. They also use blocks to spread those forces out on a larger area of the facia. Many thanks for watching! 🙂🏗

  • @waltermattson5566
    @waltermattson5566 4 роки тому +1

    I do like watching the drone camera angles but I do miss the details of the lift that you would be talking about. If you could film it both ways and then do a voiceover during the editing process with some details it would be the best of both worlds. I don’t know anything about editing. Would that be a nightmare to do? When the guys with the ropes are guiding the load through tight spots does the hook pivot or does the wire rope allow the pivot to happen?

  • @WanJae42
    @WanJae42 4 роки тому

    Awesome perspective on the job! Here's a total newbie question: The boom is very extended and elevated. If I were a kid playing with a toy crane, I'd probably have the boom "lower & shorter" (if that makes sense). Obviously, watching this video, that's the wrong thing to do, but I can't understand why. Sorry for the question!

    @dadatee1089 4 роки тому +1

    Just started watching your channel today; very cool. I don't know anything about cranes. Why do you extend your boom so far rather than booming down with a short boom & short cable? Doesn't a long boom & long cable make the likelihood of swinging greater?

    • @ToTheTopCrane
      @ToTheTopCrane  4 роки тому +1

      Welcome to the channel! The boom length is dictated by the load charts, rigging being used, etc.. There are some other house videos on the channel that might show you the rigging involved. I try to never use more boom length than necessary to make the pick. Many thanks for watching! 🙂🏗

  • @gmanjimbo3203
    @gmanjimbo3203 4 роки тому +3

    I was wondering. Especially on the second half of the house, once you sit it in place on the foundation, how do you get your slings out from under and from in between the two halves?

    • @ToTheTopCrane
      @ToTheTopCrane  4 роки тому +7

      There are notches in the bottom of the rim joist for the straps to be pulled through. So, the house never sits on the straps. Also, once the house is set, the straps are removed from between the two halves and the halves are then pulled tightly together with lag screws and come-alongs. Great question and many thanks for watching! 🙂

  • @MitzvosGolem1

    Not a good system for wet clay type areas.

    • @ToTheTopCrane

      It is not a precast basement. It is cast in place. However, I have set a few in the last six months on the precast system. I am not a fan of the precast basement. Many thanks for watching! 🙂

    How do you select a boom length for a job like this where you are not lifting high or far away?

    • @ToTheTopCrane
      @ToTheTopCrane  4 роки тому

      I choose the configuration that gives me the most capacity at the farthest radius, and enough tip height to accommodate the rigging. Sometimes there is a give and take. But, capacity or anything that has an effect on safety takes precedent. Great question! 🙂👍
