SUMMARY:

Mobile Cranes have many uses including erecting steel structures, unloading ships at ports, lifting large objects from ground level to higher
platforms, and transferring cargo from one container to another at warehouses. There are different types of mobile crane some of these are
truck-mounted, sidelifter, all-terrain, rough-terrain, telescopic, crawler, stiff boom, folding boom mobile crane, etc.

Truck-mounted cranes are widely used in a variety of construction projects. In this type of mobile cranes, industrial sensors must be able
to survive the heavy shock, vibration, weather, and temperature conditions when installed on truck-mounted cranes. Modern machines
predominantly have telescopic booms, although they are also available with lattice booms. On the other hand, All-terrain cranes are essentially a
hybrid between a mobile truck crane and a rough terrain crane while Rough terrain mobile crane is compact and highly maneuverable with robust
construction and high torque multiplicity, which make them performance-worthy for rough terrains and applications. They are more compact
which means they can get into tight spaces. Additionally, Telescopic handler crane offers more flexibility when performing daily handling tasks.
Also, Crawler mobile cranes are ideal for traveling on public roads and for off-road use due to their all-terrain chassis. Furthermore, Stiff boom
mobile crane work by using hydraulic winch which is raised or lowered by the boom to lift materials while Folding boom crane is consist of two
booms (main boom and an outer boom), which are attached by knuckle that allows the entire boom structure to move in and out, just in the
same way our knuckles move the sections of our fingers.

As an inspector it is also important to be familiar on the different parts of mobile crane such as telescopic boom, lattice boom, elevating
cylinders, hook, wirerope and sheaves, crane chassis, operator’s cabin, crane stabilizer, bearings, counterweights, outriggers, wheels and jibs.
Telescopic booms are the more distinct and significant features of a mobile crane. They are operated by a powerful hydraulic system that pumps
hydraulic fluid into cylinders containing pistons allowing it to extend or retract through pressure while Lattice boom is not as versatile as telescopic
booms and will require assembly and disassembly. Another important part is the elevating cylinder which is also known as lifting cylinders, these
cylinders allow for high-capacity lifting up to hundreds of tonnes. The hooks serve as the primary connection between the crane and its carrying

object or load. On the other hand, the primary function of counterweights are to offset the load and prevent the vehicle from tilting in the direction
of the boom lift while the Outriggers work alongside counterweights to ensure mobile cranes stay erect even when moving heavy loads.

One of the biggest benefits mobile cranes have to offer is their level of flexibility and movability, especially in situations where multiple
obstructions are present. Mobile cranes can be used to access narrow passages and sites that have limited space, making them a practical
solution for many job sites. More modifications are being done in modern cranes to cater to even the most difficult job site works.

QUESTION/S:

• In inspection, which do you think is the type of mobile crane that is the easiest/hardest to in inspect?
• What are the most common findings in inspecting mobile crane?
