Mat Calculator, which will likely be used in conjunction with the Crane Loads Calculator, allows users to select the appropriate outrigger pads or crane pads for the allowable ground bearing pressure. Simply choose the crane, the load chart, boom length, load weight, and radius, and the Crane Loads Calculator will present you with critical setup information.ĥ.
Crane Loads Calculator which allows users to determine maximum outrigger loads for the specific crane configuration without creating a full 3D Lift Plan. “If you’ve heard the phrase, a picture is worth a thousand words…the load chart viewer is exactly that – a visual representation of load chart data,” said Weiss.Ĥ. This graphical representation overlays load chart data, such as capacity at various lift radii, into a range diagram with capacities. Load Chart Viewer which takes information in traditional load charts and presents them in a visual infographic presentation.
The tool is ideal for salespeople who are working with customers to identify the most cost-effective option that can get the job done.ģ. “Information displays graphically, for an easy visual reference of the capacities at various working ranges,” explained Weiss.
Crane Comparison which allows users to compare up to 10 crane load charts at a time. The sketch can be saved to 3D Lift Plan and will auto-create a lift plan for the user, which reduces steps and streamlines documentation.Ģ. “This is a great tool for gathering initial information for a job estimate,” said A1A president, Tania Weiss. On this aerial view, it is possible to note the lift location, crane setup location, and other site-specific information. After entering an address, a Google Map displays as background. Sketch Pad which allows estimators, project managers or others involved in initial job bidding or lift planning to draw on screen using their finger.
A1A Software has introduced new web tools for 3D lift planning activities that enable users to input or gather important lift planning information without creating a full lift plan.įor on-the-go, in-the-field decision making, the tools provide quick, accurate information accessible from a tablet or other mobile device, that can later be integrated into a full lift plan.Ī1A Software has also released its first mobile device application for users of iCraneTrax, the company’s fleet management software with CRM, Dispatch, and GPS capabilities.ġ.
