Perth Zoo – Removing Old Play Equipment

Removing the old play equipment from the Orang-utang enclosure at Perth Zoo. A 220 tonne crane was employed by JGB Cranes to reach the 2 tonne steel structure.

This was replaced with a new high tech climbing post with shaded nest area for our primate friends.

The amount of room was so tight that this was the largest crane we could fit into position. The new posts were lifted over and transferred to one of our 16 tonne Tom thumbs that we squeezed into the pathways near the public veiwing area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Mobile cranes are mounted on a type of carrier. This can either be a truck-type carrier, a crawler, or a special rubber-tyre platform. These self-propelled cranes are either hydraulic cranes with a telescopic boom or cable-controlled cranes. Mobile cranes can easily reach any site, and they can be used as lift and carry cranes to transport loads.

Whether they’re tower cranes, slewing cranes, all-terrain cranes, or more, all types of cranes have a few key features.

These are:

Control Station
Boom
Jib
Counterweight
Hook
Reinforced Steel Cable
Rotex Gear

Beyond these basic features, different types of cranes have different parts and specifications.

The lifting capacity is the maximum weight a crane can hold. This is generally measured in metric tonnes. The lifting capacity of a crane will change depending on how far the load is held at the end of the jib. The further the load extends, the more the load capacity decreases. Maximum lifting capacity is measured by being close to the centre pin of the crane.

Choosing the right crane hire equipment depends on the specifications of each job. Of course, you need to understand the lifting capacity of the crane and how much you need to lift for the job. You also need to understand the job site, and whether there will be any obstructions that the crane needs to work around. Different cranes also work on different terrains, so the ground should be considered when choosing crane hire equipment.

Mobile cranes are incredibly versatile. They can be used across all industries for most lifting requirements. If you need a crane to travel to hard-to-reach sites and transport heavy loads, then mobile crane hire is necessary.
