Hi everyone,
What is typically used in the delivery of wall frame, sub floor joists and roof trusses when building a house. Is it a crane truck as standard? Is there any reason why a franna crane would be required?

The franna is just a crane on its own and the truck with a tray and crane (palfinger) is a crane truck. Crane truck is the cheaper option as you can load it up with item and crane them off. 09 Oct 2016 34 QLD Junior Member Re: Delivery of wall frame, sub floor joist and roof truss 5Jul 02, 2017 7:47 pm Yeah the crane truck is all you need but at roof stage chippies need a franna to lift trusses but they might organise that. 27 Jun 2017 23 Junior Member Re: Delivery of wall frame, sub floor joist and roof truss 6Jul 02, 2017 7:57 pm Ok thanks. So is it fair to say a franna is used to lift items higher (eg roofing)? Does it matter if there are powerlines near the property? Or can we say that typically a crane truck is used to deliver items and a franna is used for roof stages? 09 Oct 2016 34 QLD Junior Member Re: Delivery of wall frame, sub floor joist and roof truss 7Jul 02, 2017 8:02 pm Yup deliveries crane truck, and yes anything that needs to go further out and up needs a franna. The power lines the operators will navigate those unless there a cowboy. Anticon 60 has an R-Value of 1.3, so 1.3 + 2.5 = 3.8. Depending on color of roof, min requirement is either 4.1, 4.6 or 5.1 but the above is only insulation values, no… 10 2683 Capacity and deflection. I guess what expert is saying that man made lumber has the correct capacity but maybe allows for more deflection than natural timber when… 20 3357 I like to think the engineer would be able to adjust design to match. It is a pitching plate on a brick wall. But it will be up to the engineer to determine that. 5 1578  |
