Rigging & Heavy Lifting
Rigging is the most time-consuming aspect of any crane operation, and our expertise is based in a proven track record of safety.
Spirit Construction’s heavy rigging crews have picked up loads as heavy as 300 tons. We have lifted equipment ranging from tanks and Yankees to air-handling units and cranes, with established procedures detailing every lift.
Coordinating with the crane manufacturer and all worksite personnel ensures accurate communication and an emphasis on safety.
