Giant Cranes: The Inner Workings of Behemoths | FD Engineering

World's Most Powerful Crane Ship Revolutionizing Heavy Lifting:    • World's Most Powerful Crane Ship: Rev...  

Explore the inner workings of these fascinating, enormous, and dynamic machines. From the ancient Greek’s early mechanics to the custombuilt beasts in Shanghai, this is the A to Z of engineering.

From some of the busiest cities to the mightiest ports, these cranes are the backbone to our urban society. When used correctly, they are tame behemoths, but when used incorrectly, these beasts can cause chaos and destruction, leaving only a twisted wreck where a crane once stood. The workers of these monstrous feats of engineering can be exposed to winds of up to 175 miles an hour, torrential rain, and very long hours, yet they get to enjoy some of the most unique views of our planet possible. After rigorous training in specialised facilities they are some of the few eyes that get to look over untouched Norwegian landscapes, the New York skyline, and breathtaking forest canopies across the world.
