Abstract
The present disclosure generally pertains to a system for lifting and moving pre-fabricated building modules. In certain embodiments, a lifting apparatus is provided, wherein a frame is configured to attach to the exterior surface of a pre-fabricated module and wherein the lifting apparatus, along with an attached pre-fabricated module, may be lifted and moved either by rolling the lifting apparatuses or by hoisting the pre-fabricated module using a crane attached to brackets on the lifting apparatuses. The height of the lifting apparatus may be adjusted using a source of force, such as a crank-operated or hydraulic jack, to attach the lifting apparatus to a pre-fabricated module.
