How big are the panels? I don't think our rigging was that much on my last heavy tilt wall. Our heaviest panel was 10K IIRC, but less then 25'.

5 of the picks were with a single spreader length was about 22m and weighed about 34,000 lbs. 1 pick used 2 - 99' spreaders each weighing about 50,000 lbs, and the last 6 picks were spreader over spreader where the 22m was over the 99' bar.
Biggest shackles were only 300 tonne wide body. Bottom slings were 41' x 3" wire rope with 30' or 40' poly rated at 102k each. Top most slings were 2-1/2" 9 part 65' long.
Hopefully the project sends me a picture like they did for the last one.
here is a link to the crane data sheet. http://www.mammoet.com/siteassets/equipment/cranes/ring-cranes/ptc-35/datasheet-ptc-35-ds.pdf
Heaviest panel on this job is 115,000 lbs, about 50' tall or so, crazy 8 pick, a lot of 4 point picks as well.
I went thru one of those weeks where I really wished I was retired, or doing something -- anything -- else.
It's probably great to work for FedEx! They didn't deliver one of my packages yesterday because they didn't feel like stopping the truck. The package was on the truck, but the driver couldn't be arsed to deliver it.
Talk about a job! Don't feel like working? Then just drive around all day, whatever.

It's weird but I kinda miss the smell of invert. Been a couple years since I was last on a rig.
It's been a very weird week everywhere. My week was crap, buddy with a carlot had a crap week.

Customers truck finally rolled 500k. 2012 6.7. First 425k were trouble free. Literally just maintenance and delete. It got a transmission at about 430k and fuel system at around 450k due to grenaded cp4.

Cancer from the inside out. 24 years sounds like it had a good run on life as it could have been involved in one of many animal encounters in that time that could have taken it out.
Those oversize loads can be big money makers or big losers.
Most screwed up thing I laid out at work was something like 80' x 80' x 3' that had to go out of an opening 81' wide while supporting it on a 10' wide trailer. Trailer operator told me he could make it drag the ground on the sides by adjusting the hydraulics. Client was extremely nervous and all we did was move it from fab shop to paint yard 300 yards away and around the corner.
