 INTRODUCTION
lifting equipment is referred to any machine or instrument that is
commercially used for lifting heavy loads. Lifting equipment is
widely used for industrial purposes where lifting heavy loads are a
requirement of the industry. These are widely used in industries
like construction and building industry, mining, manufacturing
industry, warehouses, chemical industry etc. Vertical lifting of
heavy loads is an impossible task to achieve by common manpower.
Lifting machines can solve such issues in no time. A lifting
equipment is more practical and handy. For easy and quick
relocation of the heavy objects such machines are very important.
There are several different types of lifting equipment available in
the market. The most common ones are chain hoists, electric
hoists, shear legs, hydraulic machines including jacks, pulleys,
different elevators, boom trucks, bucket truck, and a wide variety
of cranes including the mobile cranes and the conventional tower
cranes. All these machines are used independently or in a
combination with one another in order to do the heavy lifting jobs
at the action sites. The cost of these equipment varies greatly. But
all equipment have the functional advantage of their own and
hence their costs are justified in one way or the other.

 Lifting Machines
Lifting machines are those machines that are used
for lifting loads. The force (or effort) is applied at one
point of the machine and weight (or load) is lifted at
the other point of the machine. Pulleys used to lift
water from a well and screw jacks used to lift buses
are some of the common examples of lifting
machines.
 Lifting equipment in construction
Lifting equipment includes any equipment or machinery used at
work for lifting or lowering loads or people, including accessories
and attachments used for anchoring, fixing or supporting the
equipment [2]. There is a wide range of lifting equipment in the
construction industry.

A hoist: is a device used for lifting or lowering a load by means

of a drum or lift-wheel around which rope or chain wraps. It may
be manually operated, electrically or pneumatically driven and
may use chain, fibre or wire rope as its lifting medium.
A crane: is a type of machine, generally equipped with a hoist,
wire ropes or chains, and sheaves, that can be used to lift and
lower heavy materials and to move them horizontally. Different
types that can be found in construction are:
A tower crane: is a balance crane that consists of the same
basic parts. Fixed to the ground on a concrete slab, tower cranes
offer height and high lifting capacity. The base is then attached to
the mast which gives the crane its height. The mast is attached to
the slewing unit (gear and motor) that allows the crane to rotate.
Telescopic crane: has a boom that consists of a number of
tubes fitted one inside the other. A powered mechanism extends
or retracts the tubes to increase or decrease the total length of the
boom. These types of booms are highly adaptable, are often truck
mounted and used for short term construction projects.
A mobile crane: is a cable-controlled crane mounted on
crawlers or rubber-tired carriers or a hydraulic-powered crane with
a telescoping boom mounted on truck-type carriers or as self-
propelled models. They are designed to easily transport to a site
and use with different types of load and cargo with little or no
setup or assembly.
Inclined plane:
Inclined plane, simple machine consisting of a sloping surface,
used for raising heavy bodies. The force required to move an
object up the incline is less than the weight being raised,
discounting friction. The steeper the slope, or incline, the more
nearly the required force approaches the actual weight. Expressed
mathematically, the force F required to move a block D up an
inclined plane without friction is equal to its weight W times the
sine of the angle the inclined plane makes with the horizontal.
Pulley:
A pulley is a mechanical device which contains a wheel and
rope/belt/chain to lift the heavy objects. The wheel of the pulley is
generally fixed to a hinge and rotates on an axle or shaft. In a simple
arrangement of the pulley, chain/rope/belt/cable is the driving element
that drives over the wheel. At the one end of the rope, the object is
loaded, and from the end, when the rope is pulled down the object lifts.
To lift large objects an assembly of pulleys are used. These are also used
to transfer power from one rotating shaft to another. The advantage of
the use of pulleys is that by applying a little force heavy objects can be
lifted. In other words, the pulleys multiply the force to lift the heavy
weights which cannot be lifted with bare hands.
 Advantage of lifting machine
• Reducing the Manual Load: Shifting objects against the gravity is
not a child’s play and can be extremely strenuous and difficult at the
same time especially when the load exceeds a certain limit. The hoisting
equipment relieves the workers from the strains and also reduces the
manual labour invested in lifting objects. It makes the workplace fatigue
free and saves a lot of manpower and manual labour.

• Flexibility of Equipment: Different types of equipment are used for

lifting heavy objects allow flexibility of refitting and reassembling
whenever and wherever needed. This extends the lifting capacity of the
equipment to a greater extend.

• Ease of Using Anytime Anywhere: Lifting equipment can easily be

used everywhere and in any kind of environment. These can be used
efficiently inside the indoor environment of a warehouse or at a more
outwardly exposed environment or outdoor environment. The variety of
equipment provides the allowance of using them suitably at a wide
range of indoor and outdoor places.

• Ease of Customization: These kinds of equipment are used for the

purpose of lifting heavy loads are highly customizable. The equipment
usually comes with a dozen of attachments and varied tools. Such tools
and attachments can be customized purely based on the nature of work
and specific requirement of the job.
