The guy derrick is made up of a boom and a mast that are connected at the top by a cable which allows the boom to be raised or lowered. The mast, which is longer than the boom, is held firmly in a vertical position by guys, although the derrick, as a whole, may rotate through a horizontal angle of 360 degrees. The load is applied to the boom by means of another cable, which may be used to raise or lower the load without moving the boom in a vertical plane. This type [of derrick] is used in the erection of large, steel building frames. 5, record 1, English, - guy%20derrick

Dans certains cas, on se contente de haubaner les derricks en tête avec des câbles; on peut également les haubaner sur des estacades fixes ou mobiles, les installer sur des lorries simples, ou automoteurs circulant sur des voies, ou encore sur des patins à riper. Des modèles sans embase, à haubaner en tête, peuvent être installés sur des pylônes. 5, record 1, French, - derrick%20%C3%A0%20haubans
