i took my lattice specialty test last week and my core this week i passed both. i wanted to say thanks for these vids they helped alot. you showed an alternate method of working your problems than i was taught, but it helped seeing where all the numbers were coming from
Thank you so much. I am about to take the nccco exam with specialties. I love the crawlers but its been over. Decade since i took specialties. Your tips helped me to remember. Hopefully I'll pass this time.👍👍👍👍👍👍😀😀😀😀😀
Jaime . . . sorry for the late reply. I just saw your comment. It depends on the block. for the Manitowoc LBC covered for CCO exams your probably not going to see a block with more than 6 sheeves, which would give you max of 12 parts line. For CCO test questions I've never seen more than 8 parts line.
@@LoadChartLab hi, thanks to your videos i think I've got the load chart problems figure out, what else should i study for the crawler specialty, i already passed the core exam and the hydro specialty. Thanks for all your help.
Im already certified and experience in both small and large telescopic cranes, do i need to take any other exams besides the load chart to get my lattice boom crawler
Find tip to ground distance in the chart, multiply distance by number of parts line and by the weight per foot. This is for CCO Manitowoc crawler. Different cranes have different procedures for deducting wire rope. Look at load chart notes for crane you are using, if still not sure call manufacturer
I found that if you first find the gross then the line pull and then all your deductions you will be fine. However don’t forget the CCO tests suck and will throw in all kinds of curve balls to trip you up
Go to the NCCCO Web page here is the link: www.nccco.org/nccco/certifications/mobile-crane-operator/written-exam/load-charts There are load charts available for every specialty exam and the type of crane
@@LoadChartLab okay sounds good but do you have videos on the LBT MANITOWWOC so i can follow your teachings i purchased the LLC and tss from your link but didnt see anything on the lbt
@@miguelducasse I'm sorry. I do not. I work mostly with crawlers and large telescopic boom crane. Never had the need for lattice trucks. I might be able to find you some practice problems. Emall me at dem@loadchartlab.com and I will send you what I have.
There are guides available. The best ones are not free. YOu can look at the test outlines on the CCO site and you can study the OSHA crane regs in Subpart CC of the OSHA construction standard (available online) . If this is your first time around for the CCO test you should look into a workshop--usually a week long.
So you just need the LBC specialty. That's easier than TLL. I think you would be ok just reviewing OSHA regs and practicing the load chart problems. A book I recommend is cranes And rigging by Ronald Garby
@@LoadChartLab i emailed one of their test centre and they said yes , i'm from trinidad and have been working cranes for nine years . i will try to arrange to get tested and certified by the NCCCO when i visit the US hopefully .
If they give you a deduction weight in the question, then deduct it. I've never seen this on a CCO question but I guess it's a possibility. Generally speaking there is never a deduction for upper boom point (it is already figured into the charts), whether it's on the exam or preparing a lift plan--keep in mind this is only for the Manitowoc Lattice Crawler (LBC). If I remember correctly there may be an upper boom point deduction for Manitowoc Lattice Truck--I am certain the deductions for the CCO exam are not the same for trucks and crawlers. Hope it helps.
Went back and looked at the charts used on CCO exam. There is no upper boom point deduction for Lattice boom crawlers, but there is a 1000 lb. deduction if you're doing the Manitowoc lattice boom truck exam. These videos only apply to lattice boom crawler exams. Too bad all the exams weren't the same. If you are taking the CCO exam for the LBC and they give you a deduction weight for the upper boom point, let me know. Also on the LBT (truck) there a 1700 lb. deduction for auxiliary drum--auxiliary is not a deduction on LBC
@@talbotspc Hello Melissa. I apologize for not noticing your message until today (4.18). You have a busy day ahead of you with 4 specialties and the core. If you have specific questions I might be able to help. Since this is your first round of recertification I recommend that you look at the CCO web page and look at the differences between recertification exams and the initial certification exam. I believe it's 40 questions on the core, and 10 questions on the specialty exams. Of the ten questions on the specialty, 6 or 7 could be load chart questions.
I do not. Sorry. Company I work for sold off our LBT's a few years back so not really a need. As I recall the Manitowoc LBT load charts are laid out pretty much like the LBC. There are some deductions you have the with LBT that are not required with the LBC--wire rope deduction method is the same for Manitowoc LBT and LBC . Link Belt LBT is different on wire rope deduction--deduct excess wire rope. If I needed to take the LBT I would stick with manitowoc because wire rope deduction is easier. If you don't already have the LBT load chart you can download from CCO web site, at no charge. Good luck.

Good Luck.
Austin Gibson Good luck. You will pass. Alot of jobs for operators . I just retired. We need new young guys.
How many parts of line can you run on main block.

Well done on your presentation. Really useful
Thank you for your insight and your time. Very much appreciated
Im already certified and experience in both small and large telescopic cranes, do i need to take any other exams besides the load chart to get my lattice boom crawler
How do you find the aux rope an main rope deductions
Find tip to ground distance in the chart, multiply distance by number of parts line and by the weight per foot. This is for CCO Manitowoc crawler. Different cranes have different procedures for deducting wire rope. Look at load chart notes for crane you are using, if still not sure call manufacturer
All wire rope in use, tip to ground, and any wire rope that is hanging. Several of the Manitowoc videos show how to do this.
Very well understanding video 🤙
I found that if you first find the gross then the line pull and then all your deductions you will be fine. However don’t forget the CCO tests suck and will throw in all kinds of curve balls to trip you up
wheres the lbt charts need help on that....thanks

Can you do the tutorial for Lattice Boom truck as well? Thanks.
I need do that for the Manitowoc LBT. As busy as I am It may be a few months before I can get anything posted.
Where can I get a pdf for the lbc to prepare for the test
Pdf of chart can be downloaded from NCCCO web site.
Load Chart Lab what about study guide for lbc?
There are guides available. The best ones are not free. YOu can look at the test outlines on the CCO site and you can study the OSHA crane regs in Subpart CC of the OSHA construction standard (available online) .

I have my TLL just going for LBC endorsement
So you just need the LBC specialty. That's easier than TLL. I think you would be ok just reviewing OSHA regs and practicing the load chart problems. A book I recommend is cranes And rigging by Ronald Garby
Does the NCCCO test and certify non US citizens ?
Not sure. Contact NCCCO. The answer may also be available at their web site.

@@LoadChartLab Thanks, I believe where my confusion was, was on some study material that someone supplied with their class.
@@LoadChartLab Thanks again for the speedy reply.
You bet. Good luck on the exam. I don't know everything but if you have other questions let me know.
Very detailed 👌
Muchas Gracias!! Amigo!!
I cant see the 40 foot jib vhart clearly
Do you happen to talk to operators, while trying to study for recert?
I could use your ear! This is my 1st recerts and I have 4 to take.
LMK! I will send you my info. Need the help, I re-cert on 4/30/22 for 4 specialties and core.

The notes look the same as the new generic lbc load chard

Ur chart numbers is not big enough to see clearly
You trying to watch it on a cell phone or small tablet? If you are, try it on a real computer. Videos are intended for full size monitors.
You might also try downloading the full size charts from CCO. The are available at no charge
