How is the best way to mount an electric hoist on the outside of a building to hoist to the 2nd floor deck of a 2 story building? Mount a 2 galv pipe on roof? Vertical piece? Pivot hardware?
depends on the building. Talk to a structural engineer who is familiar with that type of building. .
depends what you're hoisting. you could use a ladder with a pulley system. roofers use it all the time to run heavy material up.
