The swing radius refers to the maximum extension of the crane’s arm, measured from its base and assessed by witnessing how far it can swing around a set point. This evaluation will serve as a starting point for elaborating further actions, depending on the size of the space that can be accessed with the jib. Taking into account the general layout of the environment it is placed in is crucial, since a greater swing radius might provide better support, but it might also require more room for its installation.
