Crane Inspections in Hervey Bay
The Fraser Coast's construction and marine work rides on crane trucks — vehicle loading cranes delivering frames, trusses and materials around Hervey Bay every working day, with Frannas and mobile cranes on the bigger residential, commercial and infrastructure jobs. Most of these cranes belong to trades and transport businesses rather than crane companies, which is exactly where periodic inspection obligations slip until a principal contractor asks for the records. Salt air off the bay also gives every crane real corrosion to inspect for.
EWP Australia inspects vehicle loading cranes, pick-and-carry and mobile cranes across Hervey Bay and the Fraser Coast to AS 2550 and the relevant part for each crane type — structural, slew, winch, hook and load-path examination, NDT of critical welds and pins where required, and certified load testing, documented for site compliance reviews.

Crane Inspections in Hervey Bay — Common Questions
Could you examine the crane at our depot first thing before the run?
Most of the time, yes — booking a start-of-day slot that puts the truck back onto its deliveries the same morning is how we usually work with one-crane operators around here.
Does working beside the bay affect what the crane examination covers?
The examination holds to the standard, but a bayside crane gets closer attention on its wire rope, hooks, sheaves and boom steel, because the salt air rolling off the bay wears those parts down ahead of everything else.
