  1. Crane Rental Company – Types of Tower Cranes You Can Hire Do you know which type of crane is popularly called the ‘workhorse’ of the construction site? Mobile crane? No. Rough terrain? Nah. Tower cranes it is! As much as the other crane types, a tower crane plays a significant role in helping to perform the complex construction works. Let’s say you’ve undertaken a project to construct a high-rise or a skyscraper building and you’re looking for the ideal crane to hire from a crane rental company. Certainly, you’ll be recommended to leverage a tower crane. The reason is simple; these cranes can lift and move heavy materials very efficiently while occupying the least space at the worksite. As per the reports of ResearchGate, tower cranes are one of those types of equipments that are widely used for constructing high-rise buildings. It records a surprising 53.1% utilization in the construction industry around the world. However, people are still in the dark about the various types of tower cranes that can be hired from a reputable crane rental company. And in this blog, we shall do just that!

  2. Types of Tower Cranes You Can Hire for Construction 1. Derrick cranes: Uniquely designed lifting equipment, derrick cranes are compact and have outriggers that allow them to settle down on a surface like a rooftop. The most interesting feature is that this tower crane doesn’t have space for the operator to sit and control the functions. Instead, it is remotely operated, with or without wires. 2. Mobile tower cranes: Suggestive from the name itself and similar to the mobile crane, a mobile tower crane can easily navigate into different places. If you’re constructing a building having a small height in an open space, a mobile tower crane is the ideal machinery for the purpose. Moreover, these cranes can be easily carried around with their small or large capacity counterweights. 3. Hammerhead crane: When speaking about tower cranes, this is the most prevalent type that you’ll come across at a crane rental company. It has a long horizontal jib that extends over the worksite horizontally and is attached to a vertical tower. The counterweight is suspended on the other end of the jib. The lifting cable is arranged inside a trolley that travels as per the length of the jib and the crane operates any distance within the radius of the jib. A second crane is usually required to assemble and disassemble the tower crane at the construction site. The self-lifting tower crane independently functions in a way that the sections to its tower are inserted and removed as well as it can adjust the height. 4.Self-erecting tower cranes: Unlike the hammerhead crane, a self-erecting tower crane doesn’t require another crane to set it up; it can be easily installed without any help. As a result, you can easily save time and cost. This is a particular reason why such a type of tower crane has one of the highest demands at a crane rental company. Self-erecting cranes can either feature an operator space on the jib or can be remotely controlled. There can be a telescopic tower on some of the self-lifting cranes that enables the equipment to operate at different heights without the need for reconfiguration. Final word: As one of the well-functioning types of lifting equipments, tower cranes outmatch the loading and lifting capacities of other cranes. They can reach heights that other types of cranes cannot. Notable for their extreme stability, it’s not a wonder why tower cranes play a crucial role in the
