How it works

Structural Steel & Beam Erection

Structural steel erection in Woodstock starts with the piece list, not the crane. Beam weights, connection details and the order the ironworkers want to fly the steel decide the machine class and where the outriggers sit. We work to the erecting crew's sequence so each piece lands where it can be bolted, not stacked.

Beam and column picks, steel frame erection, joist and deck placement, connection bolt-up support, and multi-piece lifts where the crane has to hold a piece while the ironworkers make the connection. We work alongside the erecting crew, not in place of them.

Steel arrives on a flatbed and the crane has to be positioned before the first pick. If the outrigger footprint, the pick radius or the piece weights weren't confirmed ahead of time, the crew stands around while the machine is re-set. We confirm those details from the beam schedule and the site plan before the delivery window.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

The beam weight and the pick radius to the farthest connection decide the crane class. We work from the beam schedule and the site plan, not from a guess at the piece count.
Yes. Column picks, beam picks and joist placement are all part of the erection sequence. The crane holds each piece while the ironworkers make the connection.
The beam schedule with piece weights, the site plan showing the building footprint, and the erecting crew's sequence. That lets us confirm the crane class and the setup position before the flatbed reaches the site.
The outrigger footprint is set so the crane can reach the farthest connection at the required radius without exceeding the load chart. Ground conditions at that position are checked before the setup is locked.
Yes. The crane flies each piece to the ironworkers in the order they want it and holds the load while the connection is made. The crew directs the sequence; the crane follows it.
Commercial and industrial frames, agricultural buildings and additions where the steel has to be flown in piece by piece. The crane class is matched to the heaviest piece and the farthest connection, not to the building size.
