It looked like they did not have the right rear outrigger deployed, or at least not all the way deployed. Those piles of plywood looked like they were in the way if it would have been out. As usual operator error.

The right rear outrigger wasnt put all the way so when he flat sticked out it collapsed and folded into its self.

We could have done the job with our trucks but the building contractor on site wanted to bring in cranes, they wanted the wrecker to hold it steady while they got their boom back in and put away so it didn’t try to roll again

Whenever I've seen these long reach concrete pump trucks in use, they have been next to some tall multistory building, and pumping concrete straight up. Probably not designed for reaching sideways like it was.
@dandunning44094 жыл бұрын
Very much designed to go from side to side. I drive a concrete mixer for a living and see a pump just about every day. These are very stable vehicles and can reach a very long distance. The problem comes when the ground gives way or the out riggers are not put down correctly most always operator error. But yes they are designed to go fully extended out either side and I have seen it hundreds of times.

Great video guys. I drive an 11 yard 6 axle mixer every day and have poured in to hundreds of pumps. I have seen these things fully extended straight out to the side pumping concrete and not have any issues. However I have also seen these pump trucks have an outrigger fail or the ground give way while pumping. This is all operator issues as they must continuously check their outriggers.

As bad as it was not near as bad as could have been. Missed the house, no damage to the truck, appears very little damage to the boom, no one hurt. Appears the discharge chute on the mixer truck was tore up some, probably some lost concrete in the mixer. Hopefully, they were able to keep it wet so they didn't lose a barrel. Expensive but very little damage.

I'm surprised that the boom was able to fold up after the tip-over. I would have guessed that there would have been enough damage that something would be bent enough to prevent that from happening. I'm sure the recovery bill would be gigantic with your bill along with that of two cranes.

Days without incident calendar O. Man the next day after zeroing a calendar that had almost a year with the new year being the only technical 0 is hell on a union contract crew both from a contract and industry standpoibt. My first week as an electrician saw a sub crew supply electric to the wrong house destroying 3 dried in spec houses and two pending inspection houses local union took a hit and the crew as contractors lost bids for several years later because of it. Safety 3rd means safety is the first three rules and in construction wether houses or high-rises it's what matters the most.

Was it not possible to just remotely boom down the pump?
@Suedeman4 жыл бұрын
The boom most likely isn't strong enough to lift the weight without bending and breaking. Another possibility is the cylinders for the boom aren't strong enough for anything over just moving the boom as anything stronger is a waste of money if you never need the power

There are no such thing as 'accidents'. Oh. and crane professionals don't "show-off", everything they do is by the chart, such as boom length, angle, radius. Good video.

I seen this happen on construction jobs where they got a guy, rent a crane then turn it over. I worked for a company one time they sent a employee to bring a off road fork lift, back to home office. It was in another state about 150 miles away. He went in a company pickup & thought he would drive it home. It got away from him on the mountain, he jumped off, but forklift went off mountain. I had sub- contracted 2 jobs & worked one winter doing trim inside. I saw plenty of dumb stuff working for them, they were cheap.
