Crawler Cranes Written by John


Crawler Cranes largest capacity ranges between 1000-1200 metric tonnes. It is rough terrain crane which can operate in an inhospitable geographical regions.

For the purpose of stability and mobility, the crane is mounted on the certain set of tracks.



Applications of Crawler Cranes are as follows:


  • Demolation

  • Slurry Wall Grab

  • Building Construction

  • Brigdge Construction

  • Ports Construction

  • Loading & unloading of Heavy Machineries

Mobile (Vehicle) Cranes Written by John



Those Engineering Machineries that are meant for lifting and lowering of heavy wquipmens, they are not permanent structures, they are either fixed on the ground or mounted on certain vehicles, which could be a rail, wheeled or even a cat truck.


They are used in the following places:



  • Demolation

  • Port Construction

  • Building Construction

  • Loading & Unloading of Heavy Materials

  • Construction of Roads etc.

Types & Applications of Cranes Written by John

As I mentiond in my last post that "I'll discuss in the upcoming post about different types of cranes" so that this post is regarding different types of Cranes.

The different types of Cranes are:

  • Vehicle(Mobile) Cranes
  • Truck Mounted Cranes
  • Crawler Cranes
  • Construction Tracked Cranes
  • Hydraulic Cranes

APPLICATION of CRANES

  • Building Dams
  • Building Airports
  • Building Seaports
  • Building Bridges

Crane for the construction of DAM Written by John



As I wrote in my quondam post regarding crane that



  • Cranes ae designed with the help of Allah's Creatures whose name is crane that has long legs ad long neck

  • Engineers loked at that crane bird and designes a CRANE machine that is used to hook up very heavy logistics such as Embroidry Machines and etc.

A crane is a lifting machine, equipped with sheaves, wire ropes, wire rope drum & chains.


It can be used both to lift and lower materials & to move them horizontally. In the construction industry it is used for the movement of materials.


Since we know that development depends on infrastructure & infrastructure on heavy machineries. Among all the heavy machineries cran obtain an important position.


In the upcoming posts I will describe other machineries that are required for the construction of DAM & the types of Crans.

Machineries for the Construction of DAM Written by John

Since we all know that "The Dams are the most importnat aspect of an infrasturctures. They are barrier that impounds water. They conserve and store water which is further engaged for industrial and agricultural purposes."

If we want to construct the dam we will need both the heavy and light machineries.
Machineries will be Cranes, Crusher, Backhoe Loaders, Caterpillar, Bulldozer and Sheepsfoot Roller.
