Aerial work platforms are specialized vehicles designed for tasks performed at heights, typically reaching 10 meters or more. Common types include elevating work platforms, truck-mounted aerial platforms, and circular (or specialized high-reach) aerial platforms; the appropriate model should be selected based on the specific requirements of the task.
Elevating work platforms generally offer a range of heights, typically from 8 to 20 meters. An 8-meter model usually has a width of less than 2 meters, while a 20-meter model can reach a width of up to 3 meters. Truck-mounted aerial platforms, which utilize a truck chassis, typically reach heights of 10 to 28 meters, making them suitable for high-altitude operations. Circular (or specialized high-reach) aerial platforms can reach heights between 30 and 100 meters, and are designed for large-scale construction projects, bridges, and other sites requiring significant operational height.
