hi I miscalculated getting a large furniture piece into an NYC apartment. I wanted to know what is general cost to crane this furniture piece in through the apartment window. Details below. Scared of what this can cost 😭😭😭

Job Details:

• Apartment is on the 4th floor. Let’s say 50 feet in the air (50-75 feet in the air to be safe maybe?)
• The window / balcony windows are large enough to accommodate the furniture piece
• the building is in New York City on the upper east side, east end to be specific so there is less traffic
• the furniture piece is a server or buffet cabinet that is 120” long by 36” high by 20” deep (so 10 feet by 3 feet)
• probably weights a few hundred lbs?

I want to do the same, what program/tool are people using to overlay their cranes over blue prints? Also, how do they have a scaled image of the specific crane?

How are the tests actually scored to determine a pass or fail? From the way I read it on the website it's not so much an 80% pass or fail it's more of a competency scoring?

Currently working on getting my core test which will be tested on next Saturday. Am I better to get my core test out of the way then restudy and take the specialty test a day or so later

This looks like a really cool crane but probably above the specifications I'm looking for.

I need to move 400lb machines at most 24ft reach. 16ft would probably be suffice.

Can someone make me a recommendation?

I’ve been living outside the U.S. for several years now. I’ve been working on Tower cranes and have about 8,000 seat hours. (Little over 3 years).

I’d have to get certified in the U.S., what cities/states would you recommend have good TC job markets, and ideally a good quality of life. All 50 states are on the table, open to suggestions.

I'm looking to get my TSS certification before Christmas. Currently laid off from work so I have time to study though it will be rough. I passed my practical test and still need general knowledge and speciality. What all resources are available? Phone apps, podcasts, literature anything!?

Hi there everyone!

Doing research for a project on the use of cranes in manufacturing, distribution, and warehousing right now, but am struggling to find any sources discussing the largest manufacturers for these specific types of cranes (I've found stuff about construction cranes, but that's unfortunately not useful for my project).

For people who've worked with cranes in those settings, could you give me an idea of roughly who the biggest crane manufacturers are? I'm trying to compile a top 10 list but anything helps.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Thank you all so much for the responses! Appreciate the direction and will let you all know how it goes.

Basically, I'm planning to climb up on the tower crane at new year's eve to watch the fireworks, and for fun in general like I've done several times before, but this one is different - it has lit up letters on the side of the boom/jib (whatever it's called) spelling the name of the company for the advertisement. I'm planning to walk to tip of the jib, and I wonder, is there a chance of the electric cables which connect to the letters being wrongly managed and creating any risk of electocution if I touch the metal of the jib, or should I not worry about it?

Is this how I get to live once I reach journeyman status? Asking for a friend.
