Interactive Load Chart Calculator, specifically designed for Matt’s Arm by Bill Griswold, PE. Please see the example of the Load Chart Calculator on our website. This is a subscription based excel spreadsheet. One year subscription is included with the purchase of a Matt’s Arm Kit.

This tool is helpful in creating the Rigging Plan and is designed “to put the engineer in the Rigger’s back pocket” – when the intended plan doesn’t work and other options are necessary, the ILCC allows the on-site Rigger to choose the safest options for installing Matt’s Arm and for hoisting. As he is able to input accurate tower data and dimensions in the ILCC it will indicate “passing” or “failing” scenarios.
