  • Thanks. So it's like a crane gantry for lifting loads, or you use it as a work platform, or does it at structural strength to the section of the tower that's being worked on?

  • More like a crane boom that would attatch to the side of a tower to allow head room for lifting the next section or antenna. The engineering is a bit different as we limit the angle of the load to less than 3 degrees

  • What's a gin pole?

  • gin pole, (plural gin poles)

    A long, supporting pole used during the erection of a mast or pylon.
