Precast Concrete Lifting
Controlled crane lifts for precast panels, planks, and elements — heavy, rigid, and unforgiving of a rough set.
Precast elements are heavy and have to be set precisely onto bearing points or connections. Rigging to the cast-in lift anchors and controlling the piece through the swing are what keep the set clean.
Elevate provides the crane, operator, and rigging support to place precast elements in coordination with your erection crew.
- Wall and cladding panels
- Hollow-core and solid planks
- Beams and columns
- Stairs and landings
- Vaults, boxes, and structures
- Site and architectural precast
- Erecting a precast structure or facade
- Setting plank over a frame
- Placing vaults or utility structures
- Landing heavy panels at height
- Reaching across an existing footprint
- Coordinating with a precast erector
Precast work needs piece weights, lift-anchor details, the set locations, and the crane's set-up position. Elements are rigid and heavy, so radius and capacity are planned carefully for the farthest, heaviest set.

Execution & Closeout
We complete the lift, confirm the result, and leave the site clear.
Do you rig to the cast-in anchors?
Yes — we rig to the manufacturer's lift points using appropriate hardware. Provide the shop drawings or anchor details for planning.
How do you plan the heaviest panel?
We plan around the farthest and heaviest set from the crane's position, since capacity falls off with radius. Share the panel schedule and we will confirm.
