Abstract
Large helicopters are being used for many types of construction work in the United States. Some of the helicopters that are used for this work and their operational problems are described in detail. Examples of jobs done for the air conditioning companies, electric utilities, ski lifts, and structural steel contractors are given. With proper planning and design and with much larger helicopters coming on the market soon, a tremendous increase in construction by helicopter will take place.
