The hearing at Westminster Coroner’s Court was due to end last week but the inquest ran-on as Falcon Cranes submitted further legal arguments over the weekend.
Jonathan Cloake, 37, who was operating the crane at a Barratt Homes development, died along with Michael Alexa, who was fixing his car next to the building site in Battersea in 2006.
The inquest heard the wrong manual was used to set counterweights while erecting the 165-ft high machine.
