Hoisting materials on construction sites can be safely accomplished using two general methods; machine-power and man-power. Machine-power, which is typically the most efficient, involves using a crane/boom-lift to elevate building materials & equipment to the desired floor. Man-power, which can be physically strenuous and time-consuming, entails using human muscle to hoist each load up to the target area. Keep the following points in mind before implementing either hoisting method into your daily work routine:
To not have the capabilities of hoisting on a construction site could have drastic consequences on overall jobsite productivity. Even though machine hoisting is almost always the safest/easiest method of hoisting, it is not always possible. Tight spaces, or cost/availability of machinery can create situations where manual, muscle-based hoisting is the only answer. Regardless of what hoisting method has been implemented, be alert at all times because one false move could tragically end your own life or that of your fellow co-workers.
