Whether you’re building a new bridge, factory, commercial building, tower, or other major structure, all of them require a solid steel framework. This framework consists of beams, joists, and other vital components of the structural steel erection process. These components, of course, must be lifted and positioned into place, an endeavor demanding the utmost skill and precision. Fortunately, these important qualities perfectly describe the structural steel erection crane services offered by The Crane Guys. Long-established in the field, The Crane Guys boasts an unsurpassed track record covering a wide range of structural steel projects.

Our structural steel erection crane services guarantee precision lifts for all components of a steel framework. It’s important to remember that every lift is unique — each component requires its own type of lift. Columns and beams, for instance, must be hoisted from a transport truck and positioned either on the foundation or upper framework. The same is true of trusses and joists. Yes, every lift is unique. Nevertheless, they all have something in common — all steps require the consummate skill provided by our team of certified personnel, which includes crane operators, riggers, and planners. Clearly, when you select The Crane Guys for your crane rental needs, you’re getting a company you can count on one hundred percent.
Remember, our structural steel crane services don’t limit lifts to framework components. We also lift tools and supplies to crews as needed, as well as move and set foundational materials into place. You might say our structural steel crane rental services cover everything from top to bottom – literally.
Engineered Crane Lift Plans
With safety our major priority, substantial preparatory work is carried out for all our steel erection crane services. But not all preparations begin on site. One of the most important steps in this structural steel erection area is the development of engineering crane lift plans. Did you ever wonder how we determine the exact movements of a crane once a job is underway? A crane lift plan takes care of that. Every crane position is mapped out carefully during the planning process, leaving no room for doubt or uncertainty. Our steel erector crane services team knows exactly what to do, well in advance.
There are other ways lift plans serve the needs of our structural steel lifting services, too. Along with designating crane positions, a plan also determines the maximum radius of every boom and provides advanced determinations of load-bearing capacities. Moreover, communication protocols and other details are carefully worked out and incorporated in every plan. Being safety driven, The Crane Guys leaves nothing to chance. The result? People and property are optimally protected. So are budgets, which won’t be affected by costly surprises since every aspect of our steel erector crane services has been so well orchestrated in advance. A fluid performance from start to finish.
Structural Steel Rigging Services
While cranes clearly take center stage in our program of crane rental for structural steel erection, they nevertheless have a wonderful supporting cast. The main support comes from our structural steel rigging services. Handled by our capable crews, rigging is the process of securing loads, such as steel beams, to a crane. To do this, The Crane Guys uses special equipment designed for maximum hold. The equipment includes wire ropes and chain slings (selected to match load weights), ropes (to prevent swinging and spinning), and shackles for balancing purposes. Regarding balancing, the goal here is to secure each load to its center of gravity.
You can bet that all rigging in our inventory is carefully maintained and in optimal shape. To ensure reliability, riggers periodically inspect rigging equipment for soundness and functionality, going over it with a fine-tooth comb. Whatever needs attention gets it – immediately. We don’t take chances. You always can expect this level of care with our program of crane rental for structural steel erection. But we don’t stop here. This assurance of reliability is evident in all our other services and project types, from the simplest to the most complex.
Fleet of Flatbed Trucks of All Sizes
As a full-service company, The Crane Guys provides steel rigging and transport. Utilized to haul equipment and components to project sites, our transportation vehicles get the action started without delays. Among the most commonly deployed vehicles in our fleet are flatbed trucks. There’s a good reason for their popularity. Flatbeds have the ruggedness and muscle to transport big stuff like beams and columns to their intended destination. Lowboy trailers, too, have an important role to play in our transport lineup. When loads go beyond large and qualify as prohibitively oversized and/or extremely heavy, only a lowboy can get the job done.
Crane Rental for Structural Steel Erection
It’s important to remember that all bases are covered by our crane rental for structural steel erection program. This means we provide every type of crane needed to carry out a job with flying colors. For reaching the skies, we deploy tower cranes known for their maximum lifting capacity. Among the many advantages of these high-rising machines, one of the most important is its 360-degree rotational capability. This allows it to service any side of the structure. The other major advantage is the crane’s ability to rise with the structure as its being built (new levels can be added to a tower crane as needed).
Mobile and Tower Cranes Available – Largest SoCal Fleet
Mobile cranes, too, make a vital contribution to the structural steel erection process. Unlike tower cranes, these smaller cranes can move about to various locations of the project site, giving them a great tactical advantage over their larger counterparts. It isn’t just about mobility, however. Mobile cranes are well up to the task of hoisting and placing a full range of structural components such as beams, columns, and trusses.
Does a project call for tandem crane lifts? No problem. We’ve got a ton of these projects under our belt. Therefore, you can bet we know the territory and know how to get the job done right.
