We needed to hang 4 points (2 tons) on each corner around the round beam of the structure.
It was the road crew whi told us to setup yhis way .
Used 3 ft gac so we needed to be set the pulley as high as possible.
This is what we did.
RED = points/ chain
BLUE= sling choked around square beam hanging over the round beam
GREEN= ROPE
My question is .
1.- can it be done without a pulley , just rope drop over the round beam and have ground guys pulling . Its only a 3 ft gac .
I think it should make it without using the pulley?
2- would it work to have to rope going over the square beam and back down on the rou d beam without using pulley ( the rope is setup higher)
(The square beam will damage rope) . -But friction - wise . Is it easy to pull up the chain
3- ur opinions mist efficient setup on taking it down load/out
