Lifting a Heavy Wall Safely: Checking Height, Reach, and Weight

In this video, we lift a wall and show you how to check the height, reach, and weight to ensure safe and efficient rigging. We start by measuring and comparing these factors to the load tables, and then we use a forklift with outriggers to lift the wall. We also share tips on how to angle the rigging and machine for the best results. Along the way, we demonstrate some essential techniques and tools, including an open reel tape, a multi-tool with a nail-cutting blade, and a truss jib with a chain. This video is a must-watch for anyone who wants to learn how to lift heavy loads safely and effectively.

Please don't attempt without proper training and certifications.

Lifting rake walls can be very dangerous, so we make sure that every aspect of the rigging is rated, operate the controls on the telehandler smoothly and don't be in a hurry.

We save a lot of time framing this way, so its ok to lift slowly. Good communication is key. Framing houses can be very fun and rewarding, especially when its going well.

I cover how to frame rake walls in other videos.
Please remember that I'm not showing the best way to do anything, but just the method that works well for us. Thanks for watching!

Oh and another takeaway, if you use a drone for commercial work, you need to be part107 certified. Commercial work includes social media like YouTube if you plan to make an income off of that. I watched a video about this last May and then purchased the Part 107 Course https://sso.teachable.com/secure/245841/checkout/1320802/bundle-remote-pilot-plus-maneuvers?coupon_code=FRAMERS100&affcode=245841_0eauthdo I studied and learned for 1 month and then took my test. I scored a 95%, which is a testament to how good Greg and the crew over there teach. That link will save you $100 off the course and support this channel.
