@@frankgault7845 "Do I require a basic lifting plan for any lift?" The question is ill formed, it should have been, do I need a liftplan for a basic lift? The answer is no. Ok, we need to know if you are talking as a crane operator or management. Generally, if it is a basic lift, then you follow your crane manufacturer's recommendations On a basic lift, the crane operator should be able to do the job without any paperwork, as long as he is happy with the crane, himself, the location and the instructions of the client. I hope this helps.

Surprised by the negative feedback. I thought the sound was fine. Even my Yankee ears followed every word. The opening demonstration using scales was the best I have seen. The speaker spoke clear, no pauses, no echo that many youtube videos suffer from. The explanation of the mode factor was very good. The repeated emphasis on the answer being for one sling strength and the fact that 4 pt lift can't have equal loads, so treated as 3 sling, could be a lifesaver. On a related topic I watched a video of a tower erection disaster. It was not a sling failure but the workers did not know how to calculate what the lift point (makeshift U-bolt of some kind) should be. I believe 5 were killed and the entire communication tower fell. If there is not an engineer there, workers having the basics will improve the odds of everyone going home at the end of the shift. Great tutorial!

Hi AtroGamer...thanks very for watching. In theory, yes, that's correct. However, Codes of Practice state that, if the values for reduced number of legs are not marked, you are to use the percentage of WLL according to the number of legs used. i.e. One leg of a four-leg assembly = 25% of overall WLL

Hi there. great video. You seem very clued up and I really enjoyed this video, forget the haters who leave silly replies. Can i just ask, what about if you are working with a 4 leg chain set, and the tag has maximum info, rather than bare minimum like nowadays. And the tag states that if using 1 leg, vertical, like a drop chain with no choke, just attached to a lifting point of an accessory, that it has the equivalent of a single leg chain? It seems that no one wants to put there name to it. For instance a single leg of a 6.7t set of 4 chains can lift 3.15t. I have seen this stamped on numerous 4 leg chain tags in the past, but nowadays they just state the minimum info on the tags, and not what 1 leg vertical will do. Obviously all chains are made to the same spec, the only difference is the alloy grade which upgrades the capacity when going to grade 10 alloy for instance. In your time, have you honestly not seen a tag state ( on 10mm grade 8) that 1 leg vertical will do 3.15 with the other 3 hung up?? Im very interested to hear your reply. Best regards

Apologies for taking so long to reply…I don’t keep up with these comments too much really. Is that Richard? Yes, I have occasionally seen the single leg rating marked in accordance with what you describe - and have even marked them myself at times (with having done the relevant quals). However, codes of practice recommend using a portion of the overall WLL in accordance with the number of legs used. So, in absence of marking, when using a single leg of a 4-leg 6.7t set, it would be recommended to apply a maximum load of 1.68t

That depends on the angle Wendy. Just follow the formula - Uniform Load Method has been made relatively simple to avoid the need for trigonometry. If you're lifting a 6te load on two slings within 90 degrees, it would be: 6te divided by the mode factor (1.4) = 4.29te minimum WLL per sling.

@InspHigher6 жыл бұрын
It depends on the anticipated share of load and how the slings are positioned on the load Aleksandr. If you have four angled slings, with two vertical slings in the centre, I'd recommend using the mode factor of 2.1 for the four angles slings, then the two centre slings would be best to be able to cope with the entire load weight between them. This is allowing for worst case of course, and more accurate planning/calculation would allow the use of smaller slings.

Very informative video. However, I have a question. As I understand, and as you’ll see on the label of most webbing slings, when you choke a load with a sling, you are to reduce the safe working load limit by 20%. So the question is, if I use two chain slings, attach them to two flat webbing slings, and then choke the load with the webbing slings, how would I calculate the swl? Assuming the webbing slings have a lower swl than the chain slings, would i use the unified load method to determine the swl of the webbing slings then deduct 20% from it?
@InspHigher5 жыл бұрын
Thanks for your question Oputaossai. Let's say that you were using a 4.25t WLL 2-leg set of chains and two 3t WLL webbing slings in a choke hitch. (3t x 1.4 = 4.2t) 4.2t x 0.8 (20% reduction)= 3.36t As 3.36t is lower than the WLL of the chains, this would be your maximum safe working load in that configuration.

In the coming months, we will be launching products that are professionally filmed and designed. The tutorials are really just my way of getting information out there for free. With regards to the mode factors, these are based on the Sine value of 45 degrees and 60 degrees, then multiplied by the relevant number of legs. These mode factors are part of a harmonised method of rating, called the 'Uniform Load Method'. Best wishes.
