Rigging

Rigging and heavy-lift operations in urban environments demand precise engineering, disciplined execution, and meticulous safety planning. Our rigging services begin with a comprehensive pre-lift survey that evaluates site constraints, overhead utilities, street access, and ground bearing capacity. Using that information, our engineers produce lift plans and rigging diagrams that specify crane placements, outrigger loads, pick points, and tag line strategies. These documents are essential for permit submissions and ensure all stakeholders understand the lift sequence and risk controls.

Execution is performed by certified riggers and crane operators who follow strict lift protocols and coordinated communications. We provide certified rigging hardware, load monitoring, and where necessary, traffic control to permit safe crane set-up in constrained city locations. For complex facades or fragile loads, we design specialized spreader bars, soft slings, and temporary supports to distribute forces and protect materials. Our teams also coordinate closely with general contractors to sequence lifts around other trades and reduce on-site conflicts.

After each lift, we document outcomes and provide closeout certifications and lift records for client files. The combined emphasis on engineered planning, certified personnel, and documented procedures ensures heavy lifts are performed safely, within schedule, and with minimal impact to surrounding operations and neighborhoods.
