How Is Steelwork & Fabrication Loaded?
The most suitable loading method depends on the load, site conditions, and available lifting equipment (forklift, overhead crane, gantry crane, mobile crane, telehandler, or HIAB).
Flatbed Transport
Ideal for steel beams, frames, and fabricated components loaded from the side or above.
HIAB Crane Loading
Used where steelwork can be safely lifted using suitable lifting points and a vehicle-mounted crane.
Side Loading
Ideal for long steel sections, beams, and fabricated components that require side access for loading.
Long Load Support
Long beams, masts, and structural sections may require additional support and careful load securing during transport.
Forklift or Overhead Crane
Suitable where on-site lifting equipment is available to safely load or unload the steelwork.
Important note: The final loading method must be assessed before booking. HIAB loading is not guaranteed for every steelwork item or location.
