Cranes.

Free Standing and Telescopic.

We today live in a world where we think cranes are something new? But we have had a pulley crane of some description since humans needed to lift heavy weights. Those fantastic monuments of the past such as the Pyramids in Egypt, the great wall of China and the many neolithic monuments needed cranes.

Today cranes come in all sizes and formats. They are the centre of the construction of high rise buildings and also entry work to underground tunnels. Cranes in the telescopic type are used to lift heavy weight objects, from piping units to wind turbine segments to skips of materials needed at certain heights or depths. 

Some cranes work on a segmented construction basis, while others are deployed from an eight to twelve wheel truck unit.
