Introduction to Alternate Lifting

This is my second blog inspired by the overwhelming response to my first blog heavytransportindia.blogspot.com 

I have been trying to get this through for the last 6 months.

While my first blog was related to the heavy transportation industry, it struck me that transportation is a part of heavy lift. So, i decided to create this blog which deals with heavy "Lifts" majorly aimed at alternate lifting and its relevance in India.

Generally heavy lifts are associated with cranes, which is understandable as today most of the heavylifts are done by extensive usage of heavy duty cranes and thats a huge subject in itself.

In this blog I will try to explore the very rarely explored world of Alternate Lifting, which we in the industry generally call it. That is an irony in itself...because this heavy lift technique has been practised way before cranes were invented.

Alternate lifting cannot be defined as a set of heavy lift techniques. Its a lifting technique which  may use multiple lifting of shifting techniques combined to resolve critical heavy lift challenges and get the desired result.

Arguably, the construction of the Egypt pyramid is THE major heavy lift project humans accomplished in the ancient world. There are different theories on these heavy lifts and shifts which even today are argued upon.

The world of Alternate lifting is only limited to ones imagination.
