System, apparatus, device, kit, method and associated technique for safely and securely lifting wall and other structures to a vertical position. An electronic winch device that when connected to an end of a wall structure lifts the structure. A keeper or catchment such that when the electronic winch has hoisted the wall structure to a substantially vertical position, catches and keeps the wall structure in place, allowing the technician to more properly secure the wall structure. The apparatuses are also designed for portability and collapsibility, with structural members telescoping inside one another to minimize size in transport but securely configurable when extended and locked into place.

A precast lightweight wall panel installation machine is capable for erection and installation of precast lightweight concrete wall panels. The machine includes a frame base holding the panel installation machine, a lifting frame for lifting the precast lightweight concrete wall panel for erection and installation and at least a side hydraulic jack for lifting and flipping the concrete wall panel from packing position onto cart. Safety catch fittings hold the concrete wall panel from slipping off. An electrically operated hydraulic power unit with operating switches provides automated hydraulic lift to the machine. Rear mounted wheels and front mounted casters ease movement of the panel installation machine from one location to another. A power source supplies energy to operate the machine. The machine further includes the lifting frame mounted with adjustable slots to slot in brackets for erection and installation of the concrete wall panel at higher level platform.

A lifting anchor assembly that is configured to be embedded in a tilt-up concrete structure includes an anchor member that has a pair of legs extending downward from a central portion of the anchor member to form a generally inverted U shape. A spacer is disposed at a lower end portion of each of the pair of legs, where the spacers each include a plurality of spacing arms that extend radially at different lengths from an engagement portion of the spacer that adjustably attaches at the anchor member. The engagement portion of the spacer is configured to engage the anchor member in different rotational positions to selectively position one of the plurality of spacing arms in a downward position for accommodating different thickness dimensions of concrete structures.

A device for lifting and transporting sheet material includes a base portion; wheels on which the base portion is supported; a mast that extends upwardly from the base portion; a boom that extends from a first end outwardly from the mast to a second end; a supporting head that is configured to support sheet material; and a pivot coupling at the second end of the boom. The pivot coupling is arranged to couple the supporting head to the boom, and enable the supporting head to be rotated about a pivot axis between a first position in which sheet material supported by the supporting head is in a generally transverse orientation relative to the boom, and a second position in which the angle between sheet material supported by the supporting head and the boom is reduced.

The invention relates to a handling device for handling a frame formwork element with a formwork panel and a circumferential support frame on the rear of the formwork panel, having: a handling head with a holding unit for holding the frame formwork element, a movement unit for moving the handling head, the handling unit of the handling head being designed to hold the frame formwork element in both a horizontal and an upright position.

An apparatus that facilitates lifting and manipulating a wall section when building on a slab. The apparatus has a lower hinge plate, a hinge pin, an upper hinge plate, a rotational stop, a gauge and a sliding keyed joint. The apparatus is designed to be mounted to the edges of both a sill plate and a bottom plate of the wall to enable a wall to be framed and sheathed in a horizontal orientation. The bottom plate aligns with the sill plate as the wall is pivoted into its final vertical position.
