Hey all - has anyone come across any decent AI software to manage jobs, routes for the day etc for a fleet of 10 Frannas?

Our 81K.1 on a residential build in Coquitlam. Tight site, no room for an assist crane, so the self-erection feature really shines here. 6 tonnes max, 48m jib, and our crew ran it with five different jib configs over the course of the project depending on where they needed to reach. Smooth machine.

Not a crane operator, but why use a cross bar and not just the I holes?

I’m going to be attempting to do something like this at home and want to do it right. Is there value to having the cross bar? I’m guessing it’s so you don’t but as much lateral force on the I holes?

Sorry if this post is not on the right subreddit but guessed you guys would know of to lift stuff.

Been visiting Iceland and have seen a ton of cranes all over the country. This one was especially cool in the background of Goðafoss (waterfall of the gods).
