Home » Crane Sensor Helps Confirm Best Practices on Hawaiian High-Rise Project
When trying to get the absolutely most out of hook time, Hawaiian Dredging Construction Co. often looks to one particular employee. Superintendent Lewie Candler has been managing cranes for a long time, and his personal commitment to tracking crane utilization has him pushing the limits of site productivity.
“I normally take crane pick notes for eight days and then I check if someone messes up,” says Candler. “But I only had one person in management behind me taking these notes back when I started.” Candler’s manual data-collection process has kept projects moving for Hawaiian Dredging when he can make the time to be on site. But the firm recently started using Versatile’s CraneView crane sensor package to track crane utilization on the Central Ala Moana condominium tower project in in Honolulu. With a 43-story tower that will be topping out soon, the project was already under schedule pressure when CraneView was brought on due to initial delays in permitting.
