Last week we placed a Potain HDT80 on an apartment complex project in Northfield.
The HDT80, one of our largest Self Erecting Tower Cranes, is very popular presently due to the ease with which it can be placed on site, the weight it can lift and the reach on offer.
The hire term, lasting roughly 20 weeks, required a jib length of 45m and a maximum lift of 1.25 tonnes at 45 m. Additionally the height under hook required was 34m.
Our two engineers were on site early to carry out safety checks and, once these were satisfactorily completed, put the crane in place and carry out an induction with the specified crane operators for the project.

Tower cranes are essential to a broad range of building projects, from healthcare and education through to commercial and residential developments. At Mantis Cranes, our extensive fleet provides lifting solutions for every type of site, whether it's a hospital, nursing home, college, hotel, or office block.
A tower crane rising above a site tends to draw every eye, but the real story starts long before it arrives on site. It's this quiet groundwork that sets the stage for everything that follows.
Tower cranes are one of the most efficient lifting solutions available on construction sites, offering exceptional height, reach, and lifting capacity that few other machines can match. Unlike mobile cranes, they occupy a small footprint while still serving the entire site, making them ideal for congested urban locations.
