Liftem High Construction Co. has determined that the heaviest lift on a project they are estimating weighs 26,000 lb.  The project’s tower crane will make this lift (see Table 17.3).  From the proposed tower crane location on the building site the required reach for this lift will be 90 ft.  The crane will be equipped with an L6 jib and a four-part hoist line. This critical lift is of a piece of HVAC equipment and will require a 1,400-lb spreader bar attached to a 300-lb set of slings.  If assembled in the proposed configuration, can the crane safely make the pick?
