Typical mobile crane scenarios on North-East Scotland sites
- Scenario 1
Tandem lift planning with two cranes and a single AP
- Scenario 2
Ground bearing pressure check on a yard with unknown made-up fill
- Scenario 3
Lifting over a live road or rail — exclusion zone, banksman positioning

- Outriggers not fully extended because of yard width — capacity halved silently
- AP and supervisor roles combined in one person, which BS 7121 prohibits
