2. HOISTINGIn Architectural terms Hoisting means Lifting loads ,Light or Heavy, with the help of
machines or any other mechanical means.Generally Known as Vertical Traction.

3. The industrial market consists of huge varieties of hoisting equipment likeCrane and it's
components, Elevators, Lift cables, Monorails, Jacks, Hoisting buckets, Lever operated hoist, Pulleys,
Wire rope hoist, Stacker, Wheels, Work levers, Tail gates and many other miscellaneous hoisting
products suiting different industrial requirements.

Stackers

Wheels

Tail Gates

Pulleys



•They are mostly used to pull, lift, hoist, haul or raise equipment to different places.

They are available in different types, sizes, capacities, models and functions depending upon
individuals needs.



• They are very easy to use and are cost effective too. Hoisting equipment are used in construction
industries, transport industry, chemical industries, mechanical industry, sopping malls, buildings,
agricultural industry, and in almost all the industrial sectors thus fulfilling different hoisting
requirements of buyers.
•Hoisting is the operation of lifting the load. Hence equipments used for hoisting purpose lift the
load from the place, hold it in suspension during transfer from one location to the other and finally
place it on the desired location.

It should be strong enough to negotiate the load prescribed and should consume minimum time
possible in the operation and it must be quite safe while handling.



•Types of Hoisting Equipments:

PULLEY

Pulley and sheave are used for lifting rough surfaced and heavy objects. Both chains and wire ropes
are used for this purpose.

CHAIN HOIST

It is used for lifting loads upto 50 tonnes. The system consists of hand chain n load chain. The pull
applied through the hand chain is transmitted to the load chain with a multiplication factor of over
20.

JACK

IT is based on the principle of inclined plane. The smallest jack may have capacities for 5 tonne,while
the bigger variety may be of 100 tonnes capacity.

WINCH

It is a combination of gears (spur and pinion),clutches and brakes. The operation is controlled
through a series of levers.

CRANE

It is most widely used equipment as an independent unit. Lifting capacity veries from 0.5 tonnes to
500 tonnes.



•CHAIN HOISTS

PULLEY



•Types of Jacks:

MECHANICAL

In this system, load is mounted on the platform which is attached with spirally threaded spindle. The
platform is rotated and load is lifted.
HYDRAULIC

In this system, pressure is exerted by a liquid on the surface.

•CRANES



•The principal components of hoisting machines are:

sheaves and pulleys, for the hoisting mechanisms; winches and hoists, for the power units; and
derricks and cranes, for the structural elements.

Sheaves and pulleys or blocks are a means of applying power through a rope, wire, cable, or chain.

Sheaves are wheels with a grooved periphery that change the direction or the point of application of
a force transmitted by means of a rope or cable.



•Pulleys are made up of one or more sheaves mounted in a frame, usually with an attaching swivel
hook, eye, or similar device at one or both ends. Pulley systems are a combination of blocks.

winches are designed for stationary service, while hoists are mounted so that they can be moved
about, for example, on wheel trolleys in connection with overhead crane operations. A winch is
basically a drum or cylinder around which cordage is coiled for hoisting or hauling. The drum may be
operated either manually or by power, using a worm gear and worm wheel, or a spur gear
arrangement. A ratchet and pawl prevent the load from slipping; large winches are equipped with
brakes, usually of the external band type.



•CRANES



•A crane is a lifting machine, generally equipped with a winder (also called a wire rope drum), wire
ropes or chains and sheaves, that can be used both to lift and lower materials and to move them
horizontally. It uses one or more simple machines to create mechanical advantage and thus move
loads beyond the normal capability of a human. Cranes are commonly employed in the transport
industry for the loading and unloading of freight, in the construction industry for the movement of
materials and in the manufacturing industry for the assembling of heavy equipment.
•Types of Cranes:

DERRICK CRANE

It consists of a mast supported by a number of members.

MOBILE CRANE

It is a crane mounted on pneumatic type truck on crawler tractor chasis.

WHIRLER CRANE

It combines the advantage of long boom of derrick and mobility of the mobile crane.

TOWER CRANE

It is used for erecting very tall industrial and residential buildings.

HYDRAULIC CRANE

It is very popular in the present day because length of the boom can be changed during the working
of the crane itself.

GANTRY / OVERHEAD CRANE

It is a must in factories and workshops. Two main girders are fixed at the end of the bridge. The chief
advantage lies in the three way movement of the load.



•A derrick is distinguished by a mast in the form of a slanting boom pivoted at its lower end and
carrying load-supporting tackle at its outer end. In contrast, jib cranes always have horizontal
booms. Derricks are standard equipment on construction jobs; they are also used on freighters for
loading and unloading cargo, and on barges for dredging operations. Hoisting machines with a bridge
like structure spanning the area over which they operate are overhead-traveling or gantry cranes.



•Various types of cranes are:

Mobile Cranes

The most basic type of crane consists of a steel truss or telescopic boom mounted on a mobile
platform, which could be a rail, wheeled, or even on a cat truck. The boom is hinged at the bottom
and can be either raised or lowered by cables or hydraulic cylinders.

Telescopic Crane

Mobile Crane
Telescopic CraneThis type of crane offers a boom that consists of a number of tubes fitted one inside
of the other. A hydraulic mechanism extends or retracts the tubes to increase or decrease the length
of the boom.



•Tower CraneThe tower crane is a modern form of a balance crane. When fixed to the ground,
tower cranes will often give the best combination of height and lifting capacity and are also used
when constructing tall buildings

Tower Crane

Truck Mounted Crane

Truck Mounted CraneCranes mounted on a rubber tire truck will provide great mobility. Outriggers
that extend vertically or horizontally are used to level and stabilize the crane during hoisting.



•Rough Terrain CraneA crane that is mounted on an undercarriage with four rubber tires, designed
for operations off road. The outriggers extend vertically and horizontally to level and stabilize the
crane when hoisting. These types of cranes are single engine machines where the same engine is
used for powering the undercarriage as it is for powering the crane. In these types of cranes, the
engine is normally mounted in the undercarriage rather thanin the upper portion.

Rough Terrain Crane

Loader Crane

Loader CraneA loader crane is a hydraulically powered articulated arm fitted to a trailer, used to load
equipment onto a trailer. The numerous sections can be folded into a small space when the crane
isn’t in use.



•Overhead CraneAlso referred to as a suspended crane, this type is normally used in a factory, with
some of them being able to lift very heavy loads. The hoist is set on a trolley which will move in one
direction along one or two beams, which move at angles to that direction along elevated or ground
level tracks, often mounted along the side of an assembly area.



•A concrete pump is a tool used for transferring liquid concrete by pumping. There are two types of
concrete pumps.

The first type of concrete pump is attached to a truck. It is known as a trailer-mounted boom
concrete pump because it uses a remote-controlled articulating robotic arm (called a boom) to place
concrete with pinpoint accuracy. Boom pumps are used on most of the larger construction projects
as they are capable of pumping at very high volumes and because of the labour saving nature of the
placing boom. They are a revolutionary alternative to truck-mounted concrete pumps.
•The second main type of concrete pump is either mounted on a truck or placed on a trailer, and it is
commonly referred to as a line pump or trailer-mounted concrete pump. This pump requires steel or
rubber concrete placing hoses to be manually attached to the outlet of the machine. Those hoses
are linked together and lead to wherever the concrete needs to be placed. Line pumps normally
pump concrete at lower volumes than boom pumps and are used for smaller volume concrete
placing applications such as swimming pools, sidewalks, and single family home concrete slabs and
most ground slabs.
