A second-storey addition on a confined residential lot requiring crane-assisted placement of roof trusses and major structural components.

The challenge

Limited site access and tight side yards made conventional staging difficult. Structural components needed precise placement to maintain schedule and safety.

Our approach

Elite Building sequenced crane lifts for trusses and major assemblies, coordinating traffic management, rigging, and on-site framing crews to engineer specifications.
