It is assumed that Roman engineers were able to manage through mechanical challenges extraordinarily. Firstly, it was, as it was proposed by Heron, a timber hoist, the ears of which had the four sides of a square shape, similar to a siege tower, but with a column in middle of construction and built. (refurb rough terrain crane). Second, several capstans were placed at base of tower. Capstans pace wheels had the advantage over because there were more put together and so more workers and draft animals could therefore help.
The biggest cranes can found on cranes vessels, with the largest placed on cranes vessel Thialf that two cranes of 7100 tons each. Has Various training to a cranes operator to allow them to safely handle cranes. Cranes existed in antiquity. One among others used a right mast (archly) with guys and a capstan for hoisting. In Middle Ages a 15th century cranes was used for port activities.
However, can also be a further development of Roman cranes, such as those described in work Vitruvius architecture, which was found in many convent libraries. Similarly, the return may be also brought about by the water wheel, which allows the earliest versions are very similar.
Where the size of blocks to be processed widened further, are the classical Greek temples such as the Parthenon of stone blocks that are less than 15 to 20 tons heavy. At same time they went out several circular stone building columns instead of monolithic columns. Although the historical background on the introduction of cranes remain unclear, it is believed that unstable social and political situation in Greece was beneficial for small and professional construction companies.
This model cranes you see as an integrated design with the truck. It consists of a system of tubes which are telescopically extend, sometimes up to 8 times the length of base tube. This lifting arm can pivot up and down. The whole can rotate in horizontal plane. About the arm runs a cable. At end, the hook and attached to the truck side of winch. This allows cranes hoisting.
laterally displaced. Jib, which is a rotation of load made possible and were, therefore, particularly suitable for unloading in harbor quay, and drawers were there since 1340. While elongated stone blocks with tires, Lewis Brackets or stone cutters were hoisted, could be used in other goods baskets, crates, pallets or ropes used.
It is worth mentioning that medieval cranes rarely had a brake in order to prevent the load from going down again. This was probably not necessary because the wheel had a large frictional resistance. The invented in medieval port cranes is stationary, as far as we know now, unknown in ancient times. The typical harbor cranes was a pivoting structure that had two wheels pace. This cranes was used at quay for loading freight from ships, where they replaced older lifting methods like with a windlass, rocker or unloading supplemented.
There is archaeological evidence that Romans a technique mastered clearly larger weights vertically lifting. On numerous Roman buildings sit at higher elevations much heavier than the Polypastos blocks of stone lifting could. So weigh the architraves of Jupiter Temples in Baalbek, which is about 19 m above the floor to 60 tons and the stone blocks from the corner cornices even weigh more than 100 tons.
