Feature
Truss Technology in Building: Crane Equipment & Proper Truss Handling
- A new Truss Technology in Building document developed by WTCA due to members’ requests demonstrates proper truss hoisting techniques on the jobsite.
- Although the document gives recommendations for the handling of trusses, it is important to note that the general operation of any mobile crane must comply with OSHA standards.
- The TTB’s section on Load Positions, Movement & Rigging presents techniques that are likely to reduce crane damage to trusses.
