Telescopic Hydraulic Gantry Systems

This guide is a new publication by a master's degreed, professional consulting engineer who has a long-time working familiarity with theory and practice in the use of hydraulic gantries. This guide contains a significant amount of material that can be understood by anyone wanting to improve their knowledge of the subject, including crew leadership, journeyman-level riggers, planners, sales staff, managers, owners, and clients.In addition, the book is a wealth of information for the field and professional engineers who need technical information, formulas, and calculations, It is well-illustrated and comprehensive in its coverage of the subject.Nothing else I know of addresses the safe use of hydraulic gantry systems like this book. We have purchased 10 copies so far to use in our company. I recommend it highly because I am interested in seeing this relatively new, evolving technology properly and safely done, for the benefit of all participants, especially as it affects worker safety.I've been familiar with David Duerr's work for many years, and know him to be one of the best. He is a consulting engineer in rigging, crane, and ground-bearing applications. He's also well-known as a featured lecturer at the Specialized Carriers and Rigging Association conventions and events.--David Phillips, Riggingpro, Inc.

Duerr does a great job of covering all the topics concerning gantry systems. Whether you are new to them or have been designing gantry lifts for years, this book should be on your reference shelf.

Great source of info and basic concepts. Solid reference for daily work. I like Dave Duerr's publications and working with him.
