A crane is a type of machine, generally equipped with a hoist rope, wire ropes or chains, and sheaves, that can be used both to lift and lower materials and to move them horizontally.

It is mainly used for lifting heavy things and transporting them to other places.

The device uses one or more simple machines to create mechanical advantage and thus move loads beyond the normal capability of a human.

Cranes are commonly employed in the transport industry for the loading and unloading of freight, in the construction industry for the movement of materials, and in the manufacturing industry for the assembling of heavy equipment.

Construction is the process of constructing a building or infrastructure.

Construction differs from manufacturing in that manufacturing typically involves mass production of similar items without a designated purchaser, while construction typically takes place on location for a known client.

Construction as an industry comprises six to nine percent of the gross domestic product of developed countries.

Hydraulics (From Greek: Υδραυλική) is a technology and applied science using engineering, chemistry, and other sciences involving the mechanical properties and use of liquids or fluids.

At a very basic level, hydraulics is the liquid version of pneumatics.

Fluid mechanics provides the theoretical foundation for hydraulics, which focuses on the applied engineering using the properties of fluids.

In fluid power, hydraulics are used for the generation, control, and transmission of power by the use of pressurized liquids.

Hydraulic topics range through some parts of science and most of engineering modules, and cover concepts such as pipe flow, dam design, fluidics and fluid control circuitry, pumps.

The principles of hydraulics are in use naturally in the human body within the heart and the male erection.

A lattice tower or truss tower is a freestanding framework tower.

They can be used as electricity transmission towers especially for voltages above 100 kilovolts, as a radio tower (a self-radiating tower or as a carrier for aerials) or as an observation tower.
