- Can be positioned close to the building because they operate in a very small footprint
- Less likely to obstruct movement around the site
- Lifts are performed quickly and accurately
- Folding structural design means self erecting tower crane can be operational in 1-2 hours
- For projects of six months or more, the hire cost of a self erecting tower crane is less than a mobile crane, all things considered
- Operator has more visibility and possibility of blind lifts is reduced
- Reduced fuel costs
- Increased Safety
- Can be used for job sites with tight boundaries and have ability to reach areas where mobile cranes cannot
- Job completed faster
- Lower groundwork and maintenance costs
- Longer life
- Better resale value
- More flexibility
- Increased Productivity with bigger coverage
- Bigger lifting capacities at same radius
The End.
