how to find the load radius of a critical lift?
What I usually do is have the crane set up and boom out to where the pick is to be madeThe crane operator then can give you an accurate, actual radius and all his boom angles etcWhen the pick is first made you can then get a good weight reading from the crane operator as wellI found that it was easier to do it that way instead of before hand since I couldn't ever be 100% sure exactly where the crane would set up.
