As a professional manufacturer with over 15 years of experience in the truck crane industry, Xiangyu Baoyuan has provided customized 4-section leg truck crane solutions for hundreds of bridge construction projects worldwide. Bridge construction is a high-risk and high-precision project, and the stability and lifting performance of the truck crane directly affect the construction progress and safety. Today, I will share with you the core points for choosing a 4-section leg truck crane suitable for bridge construction, helping you avoid common selection mistakes.
Why are four-section outrigger truck cranes essential equipment for bridge construction?
Bridge construction often involves high-altitude hoisting operations such as the installation of bridge girders and the construction of bridge piers. The construction site is usually characterized by complex terrain, uneven ground and limited working space. Compared with the traditional three-section outrigger truck crane, the four-section outrigger truck crane has obvious advantages in such scenarios.
The stability advantages of four-section outriggers in high-altitude hoisting
The stability requirements for cranes during the high-altitude hoisting of bridge girders are extremely high. The four-section outriggers design of our Xiangyu Baoyuan truck-mounted crane can maximize the support area. Even on slightly undulating terrain, it can quickly level and provide strong support. This effectively avoids the risk of crane overturning during high-altitude operations and is a key guarantee for the safety of bridge construction.
The performance of the hydraulic system for the installation of bridge girders
The installation of bridge girders requires precise control of hoisting speed and position. Xiangyu Baoyuan's hydraulic 4-leg truck-mounted crane for construction purposes, featuring imported Italian hydraulic valves and a dual-pump design, not only ensures the smoothness of the hoisting process but also enables precise positioning of the girders. Even for heavy-duty girders of large tonnage, it can be lifted and placed stably, enhancing construction accuracy and efficiency.
Core Standards for Selecting Cranes for Bridge Construction
When choosing a 4-leg outrigger truck crane dedicated to bridge construction, one should not only focus on brand and price, but also comprehensively consider factors such as lifting capacity, outrigger performance, and certification qualifications. Based on years of project experience, we have summarized the following core selection criteria for everyone.
Lifting capacity matching: 10 tons vs 25 tons models
The selection of lifting capacity should be based on the weight of the beam and the construction requirements. For small and medium-sized bridge projects, a 10-ton 4-section outrigger truck crane can meet the basic lifting needs, offering better cost performance. For large-span bridge projects that require the lifting of heavy beams, we recommend a 25-ton 4-section outrigger mobile truck crane. It should be noted that a certain margin should be reserved for the crane's lifting capacity to deal with unexpected situations during construction.
CE Certification Requirements for European Bridge Projects
If your bridge project is located in the EU region, the 4-section outrigger truck crane you select must have obtained CE certification. CE certification is a prerequisite for products to enter the European market, ensuring that the crane complies with the strict safety and environmental protection standards of the EU. Xiangyu Baoyuan's 4-section outrigger truck cranes for European projects have all obtained CE certification and can provide complete certification documents to ensure the smooth progress of your project.
Xiangyu Baoyuan's customized solutions for bridge construction teams
The demand for truck-mounted cranes varies among different bridge construction projects. To better meet the individualized needs of customers, we offer customized solutions. For instance, for bridge projects in mountainous areas with harsh terrain, we can upgrade the material of the crane's outriggers to high-strength alloy steel to enhance their wear resistance and load-bearing capacity. For projects that require long-term high-altitude operations, we can equip the crane with a remote control system, allowing operators to control the equipment from the ground and improving operational safety.
In addition, we have a professional after-sales service team. No matter where your construction site is located, we can provide 24-hour technical support and spare parts supply. This ensures that if any problems occur during the use of the crane, they can be solved in the shortest time possible, minimizing the impact on the construction progress.
