I'm not ready to hire one right now, but I'm just trying to get a rough estimate for how much it would cost to have a crane and operator come out and do what I need.
I'm in the process of building a shop, I'm doing most of the work myself. But the problem is that the eve height is so tall that I can't erect the "ribs" (truss with it's two legs) with out a crane.
So I'm wondering if any of you guys would happen to have an idea of how much it would cost to have 6 ribs raised up and set on their anchor bolts. I estimate the completed ribs are going to weight about 4,000lbs, they are 32' on the high side, 30' on the low and 50' wide.
I'm about 40 miles outside of Houston, not sure how distance would effect the price.
Thanks for any and all help.
