We currently have a Potain HDT80 Self Erecting Tower Crane completing a 16-week hire in Claremorris, Co Mayo. The Pedestrian Operated Tower Crane was erected on site in July and is due to be on the project until the end of the year. The SETC features a jib length of 45m and provides a maximum lift of 1,250kg at the jib end.
The development is Primary Care Centre, one of 14 currently under construction across Ireland. In all 80 care centres are due for construction under the current Programme for Government.
Self Erecting Tower Cranes are particulary suited to projects like this due the increased levels of safety, efficiency and cost effectiveness that they offer. Additionally they are environmentally friendly, limit noise pollution and allow the crane operator to deliver the load directly to the point of work with little disruption to other work being completed on the site.
