ERECTION AND DISMANTLING OF TOWER CRANE

SUMMARY

            Tower crane is a modern form of balance crane. Fixed to the ground (and sometimes attached to the sides of structures as well), tower cranes give a combination of height and lifting capacity used in the construction of tall buildings. The jib (colloquially, the 'boom') and counter-jib are mounted to the turntable and it carries a counterweight, usually of concrete blocks. A tower crane is usually assembled by a telescopic jib (mobile) crane of greater reach and in the case of tower cranes that have risen while constructing very tall skyscrapers, a smaller crane (or derrick) will often be lifted to the roof of the completed tower to dismantle the tower crane afterwards.
