Cranes have a number of purposes that include
lifting, lowering or moving heavy objects,
equipment, and machines, or even to temporarily
hold structures in place.

Types of Cranes

• Even though cranes are used for moving, lifting
  or holding objects in place, they differ in
  several properties. A few types of cranes are
• Tower cranes,
• Mobile cranes,
• Telescopic cranes,
• Rough terrain cranes, and
• Overhead cranes.

Tower Cranes

• Tower cranes are tall towers which are mainly
  used in the construction of skyscrapers and
  multi-story buildings.  
• They are preferred when weights are required to
  be lifted to heights that mobile cranes on the
  ground can not reach.

• Mobile cranes or truck mounted cranes have a few
  advantages over regular stationary types of
  cranes.
• They can be used at any location, and can easily
  be moved if necessary.

Mobile Cranes
6

• They are commonly used for rescue jobs and
  short-term construction projects.

• The tubes are extended to the required height
  using hydraulics or other high-powered mechanisms.

• Telescopic Cranes consist of a number of tubes
  fitted into each other that forms the body of the
  crane.

• Rough Terrain Cranes, like mobile cranes, are
  mounted onto trucks.
• They are specially engineered to be driven on
  rough terrain like construction projects in rural
  or off-road areas.

Overhead Cranes

• Overhead Cranes or Bridge Cranes are commonly
  used in manufacturing and Industrial
  Environments.
• It consists of parallel runways and a lifting
