75 Ton Crane

75 ton crane from peninsula crane and riggingThe Peninsula Crane and Rigging  hydraulic truck crane used to transfer the steel from truck to building has capacity to lift 75 tons.  That rating is for loads within a 6′ diameter of crane center bearing (can you think of some object that weighs 150,000 pounds and is less than twelve feet across ? )

For our project the more important statistic was the ability to move up to 9,000 pounds at 80 feet from the truck.
