On most of my picks we have way more crane than the weight requires. But we need big boys to reach the heights im on. Like this one, needed 240' of stick so they had to swing one section of jib. That still had the hook within a few feet of the tip to hit the top of the hen house.

When I worked at Elliott TurboMachinery. We had a 100 ton overhead crane in the shop. We would routinely lift 130 to 140 tons with it. When we lifted anything at 100 tons or over. We would chase everyone out of the building. Then would only be 3 people in the building. The crane operator a foreman, and a spotter.

On-site. A lot of times. We had to remove the roofs of buildings to get at the equipment to work on it. When you have to remove the top half casing of a centrifugal compressor that weights 35 to 40 tons. And there is no crane inside the building. You do what you have to do.
