The smallest crane that can do the lift comes first (our stand-in for
cheapest until hire rates are added). Figures are for the main boom. Full 360° only
uses charts rated all the way round; over-rear / limited also allows the higher
ratings that only apply over a narrow arc. Tap any crane to see its other counterweight and
slew setups.
Heights here are worked out from the geometry, so treat them as a guide. Always
check the crane's own certified load chart before you lift.
