Heavy Lift Engineering Services

Engineering for Safe and Efficient Heavy Lifts

Executing heavy lifts requires precision, in-depth technical knowledge and a clear understanding of the risks involved. Our engineering services support lifting operations from concept to execution, ensuring full compliance, technical accuracy and safe on-site performance.

We combine practical lifting experience with advanced engineering tools to deliver reliable and cost-efficient heavy lift solutions. In addition to engineered lift planning, we also provide Crane Safety Audits and Verification to ensure the entire lifting process meets international standards.

Lifting Studies & Feasibility Assessments

Before any lift is carried out, we conduct detailed lifting studies and feasibility assessments to determine the safest and most effective approach.
Our analysis includes:

lifting method evaluation
identification of constraints (ground conditions, radius, obstructions)
risk and hazard analysis
assessment of alternative lifting strategies

These studies help clients make informed decisions and avoid unnecessary operational or safety risks.

Engineered Lift Plans

We develop engineered lift plans for standard, critical and complex lifting operations. Each plan is tailored to your project needs and complies with international industry standards.

Our engineered lift plans typically include:

technical lift drawings
detailed lifting methodology
load charts and radius diagrams
equipment configuration
sequencing and supervision guidelines

Whether a simple or high-risk lift, we help ensure every step is properly planned and documented.

Load & Structural Calculations

Accurate load calculations are essential to determine the feasibility and safety of any heavy lift.
We provide:

load and force calculations
ground bearing pressure analysis
structural checks
rigging configuration calculations
crane setup and capacity analysis

These calculations give you the confidence that all forces are understood and accounted for before operations begin.

Crane & Equipment Selection

Selecting the right crane or lifting equipment can significantly impact safety, cost and efficiency.
We support clients with:

crane type and size selection
configuration and boom setup
rigging equipment choice
optimization for site constraints
alternative lifting solutions

Our goal is to reduce risks and improve lifting efficiency through optimal equipment selection.

Engineering Support for Complex Lifts

For high-risk or non-standard lifts, we offer specialist engineering support, including:

multi-crane lifts
tandem lifts
heavy or oversized loads
confined or restricted spaces
engineered rigging arrangements

Operators and supervisors involved in these operations can strengthen their technical competencies through our Training for Appointed Persons, designed to support safe and compliant decision-making.
