Load Transportation System

Abstract: The invention relates to a high-efficiency load transportation system for use in the building construction industry. The system utilises a hoisting apparatus (18) installed in an upper story of a building (14) and at least one retractable loading platform (20) removably installable on an underlying storey such that it may extend beyond an edge of the floor of the underlying storey. An arm (24) of the hoisting apparatus may extend beyond a distal end of a retracted underlying loading platform to allow the unimpeded vertical lifting and/or lowering of loads beyond the platform. The hoisting apparatus is used to position each loading platforms on its underlying and reposition each loading platform thereafter. Such an arrangement yields significant reductions in load in/load out times and associated costs. The system also reduces the carbon footprint of the building project by reducing traditional tower crane usage.
